A Town-Meeting Episode.
An
incident of last Monday's town
meeting will be long remembered bv
those who were present and is well
worthy of being preserved in print. It
was a scene alike dramatic and affecting
and once again proved that
"Pity iit.il neisl tntike till !.c?h kin."
For hours had discussion been iu prog
ress :us to various appropriations needed
for cam ing on the town government,
and ultra-economists were working with
all their power to have things hgurcd
down to their lowest notch. At last was
reached the article relating to a claim
Jigainst the town by an old and re-!
spected citizen for damage to his land '
l3 reason of water wa-hiug sand from
a hill down upon it. The committee
appointed at a previous meeting to in-
vestignte the claim reported than len 1
dollars would cover the damage, and I
that sum was just about to be ordered
when the claimant tottered to his feet
and leaning with the weight of oer
eighty 3'cais upon his cane with feeble
broken voice begged pcrmbsion to
speak. He said he was so deaf that not
one wonl had ho heard of what had been
going on around him for hours, but now
some one had given him to understand
his claim was under discussion. Then

In the meantime Superintendent P. II.

of twelve men having been put on oalv
two days ago. In about ten days the

At the base the monument is fifty-five

About Walking.
No two of us wall: alike. The bingo
of our gate- turn the same way, but with
different re-mlts.
The baby strikes out a toddle because
it hasn't streiijrth enough to walk, but
1
for the purpose of showing how much
more a man Knew than the I.onl did.
The hipnity. hoppity, skip and jump,
is peculiarly the little girl's gait. Cn
easy and rastless, the llutler-btidet
seems determined to wear the ole of
'"'rsnoe aim ine som 01 i.er mother out
, al thV Wl"nt' "m," but she is the tiretti-
t picture of animation humanity
walk as already in his dotage.
The bound-to-have-it gait is a rapid,
straight-forward stride, never turning to
the right or left. The man who has it
. knocks over children, barks his shins
' against market-laskets, and stubs his
. toe against everything on the walk. Hut
he gets there, and his coat-tail arrives
' about two minutes later.
I There is the slow, measured gait,
I tread, tread, tread all hiy long. The

1 voting man from ruraldom. He gets
the walk from going over tlie rough
ground, and au'bod3 that gets the best
of him ha got rougl! ground to go over.
The quick, sharp and spiteful gait,
with the little mela'ie luels ringing on
the pavement, is the g.nit of the smart
young miss with bright eyes and lots of
vivacit3. Tho 3oung man who intends
to keep company with her for life mti.-t

she will never train to his.

was a sail but lncontustiblu fact that
Sicily did not seem to have come into
the legitimate fniits of her glorious out
rage. At the end of one hundred years
she was torn with anarchy; at the end,
of another she was a Spanish province.
The hick was always against Sicily, aad
it so happened that when the centenary
of tbeAesperscame round Sicih- was
not only under a foreign King, bnt un

The Sinking of the Jcnnncllc.
Tlie New York Jhralil prints a letter
giving Lieutenant Dnnenhower's ac
count of 'the adventures of the.leannette
until after the vessel sank. Of the last
hours of the cscl he stys:
" About three p. in. Machinist Lee
reported the ice coming through the
blinkers, and the Captain immediately
onlered, 'Lower aw!' men having
been previou-h stationed at tho lxats"
falls and some provi-'ions put on the ice.
Me!ille immediately contradicted the
report, and the Captain delayed the or
der. Thus the ship lay for "two hours
and a half, the pressure of the ice relax
ing at times and the ship nlmoit right
ing. Then j.gain she would be hove over
to twetmMhree degrees and wo felt sure
there wa no longer am hope for her. for
she would not lift. There w.xs nothing
intheworldtobedoneto.assitherattliat
time. We had to depend upon her
shape. I have forgotten to tell on that
she. of course, floated much higher than
when we entered the pack, and that led
us to hope that she would lift easier in
the nip. for the pressure of the ice
would be below the joint her sides
commenced to tumble home. On tho
starboanl side, while she was heelin"-.
the nip was felt on her timber heads,
which were the weakest parts of the
frame, bnt on the port side she was
pressed below the tnm of the bilge,
ller fate was practically decided the mo
ment we found she would net lift, ami a
large amount of provi-ions .and clothing
was then placed on the ice in readiness
for the catastrophe.
" When the onler was given to aban
don the ship her hold was full of water;
and as she wa heeling twentj'-thrce de
grees to starboard at the time that the
water was on the lower side of the spar
deck. I hope that on r friend, the Iondon
Stari'iant, will not now think that wo
deserted her and left her adrift in the
Arctic, a was stated in one of the is
sues of that piper. We had a lanrc
quantity of provisions on the ice about
a hundred yards from the ship, but Mr.
Dunbar, who was .alive to the oceasiinn. i
advised the shifting of these to an adja-
cent ami more favorable floe piece. It 1
took us till eleven p. m. to eflect the re
moval. We also haid three boats - n.aroe
h. the first cutter, second cutter and tho
whaleboat. As soon as Dr. Ambler had
looked out for Chipp he relieved me at
my post, and I went to work with Xo. :i
sled party, which I had been detailed
prevjon-ly to command. The onler was
given to camp and get coffee, so we
pitcied onr tent abreast nf tht b-KiU
I boat, and I wt about fitting ont for the
retreat. "
"About four o'clock I was awakened
by Seaman Knchne calling his relief.
Fireman Bartlett. who was in our tent.
Knchne plied to Harlett that the ship
was sinking, and the latter jumped to
the tent door and saw the spars of the
Jcannctte after the hall was below the
surface. We heanl the crash, bat thoe
were the only two men who saw the
vessel disappear. It was said that the
ice first clo-ed upon her. then relaxing.
allowed tne wrecK to sink; tne varus
caught across the ice and broke oi, bat
being held by the lifts and braces were
carried down depth. thirty-igfat fath
oms, as I remember. The next morning
the Captain and others visited the spot
and foand only one cabin chair and a
few pieces of wood all that remained
of onr old and good friend the Jean
nette. which for many months had en
dured the embrace of the Arctic mon
ster. The Jcannette sankahest foar
o'clock on the morals? of Mosdar.
