Two hundred and seventy days from
Shanghai for Now York Is tho rcmarka
blo record mndo by this unfortunato
vessel. Ten months nearly elapsed
from tho time she spread her sails and
started on hor voyago boforo hor sick
and dying crow found rollof. Twice
during all this timo sho was within
night of somo other vessel, but onco
only did sho got within hall. Tho aw
ful story of alleged cruelty told by the
survivors of tho crow of the clipper Is
bolng put In legal form by representa
tives of tho Senmen's Union. It Is un
derstood that It will bo used In ac
tions soon to bo brought against Cnpt.
Rfcd and tho owners of tho ship. The
emaciated seamen, now In tho marine
iiospltal on Statcn Inland, alleges that
Capt. Reed Is directly responslblo for
tho Illness of all but two of tho crew;
thnt thoy wcro kept on half rntlonB dur
ing tho greater part of the trip, and
King has a wlfo and two children In
Philadelphia and ho sent word by
Frank Weber to notify tho Grand Ar
my men of tho circumstances of hit
donth and to urgo thorn to tako action
In tho Interest of his family. Thle
message, Weber soys, ho will deliver at
soon as lie Is nblo to get out of the hos
pital. Tho twelve survivors, although
they havo gained much strength since
they reached port, still show In their
pinched whlto faces tho ordeal through
which thoy havo passed. Benson,
wnoso enso ih most serious, Is a living
skeleton, weighing llttlo more than fif
ty pounds. Robinson, who weighed 16S
pounds when ho shipped from Now
York, now weighs 88 pounds. Ander
son, who then weighed 172, now weight
104 pounds. Carpenter weighed 19
and now weighs 117.
Mrs. Reed, tho captain's wlfo, is said
to havo acted heroically. As the crew
kept dropping off through illness and
death, and all hands, with the excon-
tlon of Mrs. Reed, her husband, nnd
mo innics, wcro compelled to quit, a
strong gale Jumped from the north.
Someone must tnko tho wheel and kocp
tho hunger ship on her course. Mrs.
need, tho companion of hor husband
In all his voyages, and a sailor imm
her youth, was tho woman for the
emergency. Donning tarpaulin nnd oil
skins, sho relieved ono of tho mates at
tho wheol, and for a doublo trick, or
eight hours In all, held the spokes with
a vice-llko grip, nover swerving until
tho ship reached port. Tho captain
and his wife -say tho suffering of tho
crow was unavoidable, owing to tho ty
phoon winds.

much of the nlno months they were on
fbe 'water.
"Wo havo not decided Just what
charges we Bhall prefer against Capt.
Reed," said James H. Williams, secre
tary of the Scamon'a Union, "but we
hall make the moBt serious charges
Against him that wo can sustain by tho
Videnco."
Joseph Robinson mado tho statement
Jilch will bo used by, the union and
the other eleven survivors who are
Hh him In tho hospital subscrlbo to it.
Several wore able to sign tholr names
with difficulty, and one, John Benson,
Is Btl'.l so weak thnt It Is a question
Arhethcr bo will recover.
"Wo wore forced to complain about
ur food before wo had been a week
it of Hong Kong," said Robinson,
and tfc cntlro crow went to Capt.
Iteed on July 7, only to be refused hot
ter provisions. Our conditions became
uch that at tho end of July wo
determined to make nnother demand,
fend again tho entire crew comnlnlnoii
lYom July 31 to Sept. 27 thero was an
Improvement, but on tho latter dato we
were all placed on half rations, and so
lontlnued to tho end of the long Jcar
Jiey. Tho captain did not supply tho
Jhlp with enough provisions before
leaving Hong Kong. We had been out
aeventy-four dayB beforo wo got any
tresh meat, and wo told tho cnptaln It
fcras Illegal for him to make no better
allowances to the crow. To this he re
filled: 'I am not afraid of tho law. Tho
aw can't do anything to mo.' Thero
b no reason why wo Bhould have been
jo long in coming to New York from
ttong Kong. Wo had fnvdrnblo winds
pouch of tho tlmo, but tho captain
would not hoist sails to tako tho full
est advantage of them. In good sailing
Weather ho often hoisted buIIb as most
rressols would carry In a galo. Ho said
be took this course because ho was
conservative. Whllo tho men In tho
evow wero growing weak from lack of
proper food, tho captain was living on
chicken nnd other good things. Ho
had two crates well filled with chick
ens when wo left port and when tho
Oaks got Into Now York harbor several
chickens wero still loft. If tho captain
had killed them and mado soup for tho
crow, oven giving It to us but onco a
week, the men would hnvo been ablo
to retain their strength Instead of com
Uig In til and helpless.
"Wo wore so weak from hunger that
often members of the crow had to hold
to tho railings to koep from falling on
the deck. It was next to impossible
for us to climb, tho masts. Our condi
tion was such that threo of us could
hardly do tho work that ono properly
fed seaman should have done. The
chicken soup would havo kept away
the scurvy. I have been iti somo pret

was starved as wo were on this trip
fix men died on tho trip."

O H A N N E S
Brahms, who is
generally consider
ed to be tho great
e 8 1 contemporary
composer, was born
at Hamburg on
March 7, 1833. Ho
was tho son of a
double-bass player
In tho city theater.
and his musical education was begun
at an early age. Ho displayed great
talent for tho piano, and was also care
fully trained In musical theory, at first
by one D. Cossei, of Hamburg, and aft
erward under Edward Marxson, of Al
tona. Ho made rapid progress as a
pianist, and appeared In public for the
first tlmo at tho age of fourteen, play
ing, among other things, a set of va
riations of his own composition.
In 1853 Brahms started on a concert
tour through Germany with tho vio
linist Remenyl. They visited Hanover,
Gottlngen, and Wclmer, nnd Brahms,
by his playing, attracted the Interest
of Joachim and Liszt. What especially
aroused tho former's admiration was
tho feat performed by the youne nlnn-
Ist In Gottlngen, when, having to play
Dcothovon's Kreutzcr Sonata with Rem
enyl, ho found tho piano half n tone
tint, and transposed his part, without
mo notes before hlra, from A to B flat.
A result of his acquaintance with Joa
chim was an Introduction to Robert
Schumann, then living In DuBseldorf.
There ho played to the elder master his
sonatas and scherzo for piano, and ex
hibited several books of his songs.
Schumann's enthusiasm at the evidence
certos for pianoforte and orchestra, one
for violin and orchestra, and a double
concerto for violin and violoncello,
with orchestra. Besides the "German
Requiem" there are a number of choral
works of smaller dimensions, from
elaborate cantatas down to unaccom
panied part songs. In the Held of cham
ber music Brahms left a large number
of his most characteristic compositions:
many volumes of songs, which are
among his most esteemed productions,
also several sets of short piano nieces.
complote the list of his composition.
His work represents all branches of I
music except tho opera. Ho also did I
considerable annotation and editing of
tho great editions of tho classics pub
lished by Breltkopf ft Hartel. His pub
lished compositions extend to tho opus
number 121, tho "Pour Serious Songs"
that wero published a few-months ago.
In 1880 tho degree of Doctor of Philos
ophy was conferred upon him by the
University of Broslau, and for his
"Academic Overture" an audacious
and amusing piece of musical comedy.
Ho also recolved various orders and
decorations from German ruling
princes, and was a member ot the
Academy of Arta of Berlin.

A Monument for Key.
The state of Maryland has made an
appropriation to assist In paying for
a monument to tho author of "Tho Star

Tho monument is to cost $16,000,
and tho state will supply ono
thlrd of this. The remainder
will bo raised by G-cont subscriptions
from tho school children of tho coun
try. Tho Key family, u is said, Is not
particularly pleased at this method of
raising funds, nnd small blame to the
Keys for their dislike of It. These
popular subscriptions aro amazingly
Uko begging, and under all circum
stances, save when there Is an un
stimulated expression of sentiment, un
dignified. As there Is to bo a monu
ment, It ought by all means to be a
worthy work of art. Beforo they go

On Friday night Mrs.W. Butler, liv

THE YOUNGEST FREEMASON.
Ceremony of Adoption Performed Whea
lie Wan u Month Old.
Upon Master Sydney Frederick
Forbes has been conferred, by tho lodga
of which his father was a foundation
member, tho tltlo of the "youngest ma
son In tho world," says a contributor
to the St. LouIb Republic. Whllo tho
universal constitution of the masonic
order provides that no ono Bhall Join
tho order until ho becomes 21 years of
age, Lodgo Jubilee of Barborton, South
Africa, working under the Dutch con
stitution, performed for him tho cere
mony of adoption when he wob a
month old. The lad was born Nov. 3,
1888, of English parents. Hh father,
William Forbes, was then secretary of
the Barbcrton stock exchange, and Is
at present tho mannger of ono of Lho
valuable mining properties at Johan
nesburg. Tho small apron used for
the ceremony was made from tho skin
of an African kid for tho occasion. It
is tho chlof treasure of Master Syd
ney's collection of valuables dear to
Juvenility. Tho press of the Transvaal
commented at length and enthusias
tically upon tho unique rite. "On Sun
day last," said ono of tho leading Jour
nals, "was performed in Masonic hall
a ceremony which, wo believe, has
never before been witnessed in South
Africa, if at all. Tho ceremony In
question wob no less than the adoption
by Lodge Jubilee, working under tho
Dutch constitution, of the infant son
of ono of Its foundation members, F.
W. Forbes. By tho ceremony of adop
tion tho Infant Is admitted as a
"Lewis" In freo mnsonry, the oaths
and obligations being taken on his be
half by tho wardens of tho lodgo bb
sponsors of tho lodge Itself, and all
Its members acting In that capacity,
and undertaking tho masonic guar
dianship of tho child in much the same
way as sponsors at a baptism. At the
ago of 21 years tho "LcwIb" may enter
and take part In the working of tho
lodge without undergoing nny of tho
usual initiatory ceremonies.

whero ho has attnlned his great fame.
In tho next year ho becamo tho con

ho resigned tho post In 1864. Ho mado
frequent short Journoys, spending much
of his tlmo In quiet towns sultablo for

compositions. Tho performance of his
"German Requiem" In 1868 nt Bremen

An Kagle a An Alarm Clock.
Mr. W. Le C. Beard in the April

had as a pet In Arizona. Mr. Beard
says:
Tho half-breed In whoso chargo he

better than an nlarm-clock for no one
could sleep through the cries with
which he greeted tho rising sun and
his notion of breakfast time; and
while an alarm would ring for only
half a minute, Moses was wound up to
go all day, or until he got something
to eat. But hls guardian treated him
kindly, and Moses grew and thrived,
soon putting on a handsome suit of
brown nnd gray feathers, which ho
was very proud of, and spent most of
his spare tlmo in preening; and he
was beginning to think seriously of
trying his wings when an accident put
off his flying for a long time. Having
known, thus far, nothing but kindness
from man, he was absolutely without
fear, and, as it turned out, rather too
much so.
