NEW YOISK , Docombcr 10. A fovr
yearn ago n man nbont GO of nto , with
the nppcarnnco of n fnrmor , nnd very
taciturn , rcgiatorcd at the Sinclair house ,
corner of Broadway and Eighth atroets
under the name of Ezra \V. Forinan ,
Noinora. Ploiadca group , Pacific ocean
Conversation ohowa him to bo a very in
telligent man. Ho tolls a wonderful
tale , which has every appearance o
truth. Ilo says in substance that in the
year 1247 the ship Ocmulgco of Warohain
was homeward bound with a full load ,
tryworka overboard and 'riahs and kegs
of oil stoned in every top. After leaving
Lahalna , S. 1. , October 7 , with 350 barrels
rols upcnn , 3250 barrels whale oil tuk
41,000 pounds of bone , the was never
hcardfrom. Fonnaii was boat stooror. Bo
claims ho is the solo survivor and states
that the ship was wrecked on Noinora
an Island in the Pleiades group , am
gave the following romantic story of the
wreck :
"Tho Ocmnlgoo wont ashore on No
mora in December , 1817 , and all handc
were drowned excepting myself , Martli
the cook , nnd an Hawaiian eallor numei
Walhoe. All the oil casks wore stove
nnd the ship gradually hove over the reef
until finally the survivors could walk
around her at low water.
"Through the Hawaiian 1 was enable !
to talk with the chief of the Island. .
explained the uses that might bo made o
the various articles , and assisted by na
lives got everything out of the ship , in
eluding the bono , and then broke up the
ship , saving planks , nails , anchors , chainc
and whaling gear.
"Wo wore given houses , lands and
wives , accepted our position , nnd deter
mined to ninko the boat of it , and , except
copt that wo wcro oxtlos from homo nn <
friends , wore content and happy. .
taught the natives many of the rude
arts , and they prospered greatly. Bu
the natives feared to loao ; IB , nnd vrhcn a
ship camp in sight hurried us away into
the Interior until the foreign vessels Imi
passed on.
"Later my two companions died and ]
was loft alone. Surrounded by my child
roil and grandchildren , I was finally acknowledged
knowledgod to bo their ruler , and my
word was their law. I told them I must
go to my friends , but had to swear by
their gods that I would roturn. Finally
a sandal wood trader touched there , and
1 embarked in her , was landed nt Sidney ,
nnd made my way here nftor much
trouble and time. "
Such la Foreman's story. Now comes
mother remarkable tale. Ilo says thai
; ho whalebone is in prime condition , nnd
: rom the time of its wreck to the present
day a native has always boon on guard
) ver it , and that regularly once a weak
is position has boon shifted to save it
'rom rats and mould. Forman says that
lia two companions loft a number of chll-
Iron who are now all big and hoalthy.and
ho has twcnty-nlno sons and daugh-
ors and sixty-nino grand-children. Some
Philadelphia merchants have taken stock
n Forman's story , have advanced him
? 5,000 worth of goods , chartered a steam-
ir and she will soon leave Now York for
the Pleiades , to carry out this modern
Alcxanper Selkirk and bring back the
> ono , estimated to bo worth now from
§ 150,000 to § 176,000.
The story is n romantic ono and the ap-
> oaranco of Foreman carries truth with
t ; but a Nantnckot gentleman , to whom
ho tale has been submitted , who is con-
orsanton whaling matters , doubts it
rom first to last , and advises the mer-
hants , responsible ones , by the way , to
xamlno Forman and his story very caro-
uliy before accepting its truth. The
; ontleinau who has advised DII the matter
lya there never was n ship Ocmulgeo of
Warham In the "Whaling business that
was lost. The only whaler of that name
was owned In Holmes Hole , and sailed
opoatodly from that port from 1815 until
n 18C5 , she was burned by the confodor-
to cruiser Alabama. There are also other
orious discroponcios in Forman's [ state-
nont , among which is the proportion of
irhalobono to the proportion of oil taken ,
nd although his yarn Is ingeniously twis-
cd , yet it is full of Haws and apt to stand
n oxamlnation , and the inference is ,
nlesa ho can reconstruct his story with
now name for the ship that is ac-
optablo , ho is a crank or a cheat of the
orst so rt.
MR. HEWITT AND THE DOGS.
'ho Now York CoiiKroasmaii the
Victim of Barking Canines ,
'WASHINGTON' , December 11. Hon. A.
. Ilowitt of Now York is going to make
n eil'ort to got aomo legislation by con-
rcss to nbato the nuisance of dogs Dark-
ig at night in this city. Ho is a great
utlorer from insomnia , getting very lit-
lo sloop when hero during the session of
'ougross ' , and ho attributes it to the fact
tiat no matter where ho takes up his
uartors ho finds that some near nuigh-
or has either a dog to howl and bark all
ight through , or n rooster to pipe his
larion notes during the small hours of
ho morning.
Mr. Ilowitt is a man of remarkable
nervous energy , and his mind is so active
hat he can never sleep soundly , conso-
[ uoiHly is nwako to every sound during
the night. His tlroloas activity is often
a source of wonder to his associates on
ho ways and means committee of the
louso. Ho Is an authority on most all
subjects , and shoulders a great burden of
the responsibility.
Ono day last session thrj was a peculiar
knotty question before 'the committee ,
and after discussing it for a long time
; hey concluded that it would take at
e at a week's good hard thinking before
they could got the matter in shape to re
port to the house , so they adjourned to
meet at the expiration of that timo.
The next morning Mr. Ilowitt brought
lu a written statement of the case which
so perfect and comprehensive that with
out anymore ado the committee adopted
It as their report. When his astonished
associates asked him how ho managed to
accomplish such a trnmondous task in
such a short time , ho said :
"The dogs would not lot mo sleep , so 1
sat up and wrote. "
Ho used to occupy quarters at Worm-
ey's annex , but was forced to move from
.hero by the roosters , whoso crowing kept
urn awake , Now ho occupies a Hat at
.ho Everotton II streetuoar Eighteenth ,
jut ho in not free from the enemies yet.
There Is a largo Newfoundland dog at
Ivalsor's bakery , just around the corner
on Eighteenth street , which ho says never
ttops barking at any time during the
night , and toward morning his sloop-
disturbing efforts are seconded by a rooa-
tcr'uext door that never gets tired of
welcoming the returning day Ho hai
made freqaent appeals tMr Knisir c
kill the dog or solid him fur bojttd int
the country , but ho refused to part will
his dog , and wanted to know what dog ;
were made for if not to bark.
The policeman on the beat was then
sot upon the noiay canine , but with no
better result. Then Mr. Ilowitt rent a
complaint to the district commissioners
but they replied that it was beyond their
power to protect him. Finally ho haa
concluded to try nnd got nn amondmon
put on to a district lUonso bill now in the
senate district cjmmitteo , which will re
quire that a dog which is complained o
as annoying to a nciwlibor shall bo removed
moved or killed.
"I never saw such a city , " said Mr
Hewitt , speaking of the matter to a Stai
reporter. "It is uncivilized. There it
not another city of any pretensions ir
the union that they will allow to bo con
verted into n dog kennel. In Now York
if complaint is made , the dog la nt once
put out of the way. Everywhere else
they think more of their citizens than o
their dogs. That dog of Kaiser's roba
mo of moro than half my sloop. Yea , fa
more than half. I got scarcely nny sloe ]
in Washington. 1 asked Mr. Kilsor to
put a stop to the nuisance , but he said i
wan his dog ana could bark all ho wantoc
to , and told the policeman to go to
It is a terrible nuisance. "
"Oh , Mr. Ilowitt and the do l" exclaimed -
claimed Mr. Kniaor , in broken English
when questioned by the Star man. "The
dog doesn't bark , llo'a my dog , H
dnn't bark unless something's the matter
All the dogs in the neighborhood arc

The Brazilian minister had six poisonoc
last winter , nnd 1 lost two ; but this one
won't oat pcilson. The dogs ! the dogs
They can't live In the neighborhood fo
him. My dog protects my property , 1
Mr. Ilowitt will hire mo n private watch
man ho shan't bo bothered with the dog. '
"Why don't ho work hard and go tc
sleep like honest folks ? " nskod Kniaor
junior. "Thou dogs won't disturb him
You might shoot oil' cannon In my care
nnd I would not wako. Nonsense
Nonaenso. "Why don't ho go to sleep ? '
"Ho of his sins '

suggested Mrs. K , , who seemed to thin !
it was impossible for anything clso tc
keep a man nwnko.
"Can't you compromise the matter ? '
suggested the Star.
"No , no. I keep my dog , " wns the
reply.
Mr. Ilowitt as stated nbovo , suffers sc
much from insomonia that ho gets prnc
ticnlly no sleep while in the city. It
Now York ho says ho sloops well enough
and occasionnly ho has to go there to yet
a night's rest.

German Cavalry Dispensing AVitl
Swords.
BGHLIK , Nov. 29. [ Special to Lender
Times. ] ! am Informed that the nn'Htar )
authorities hero have just resolved to Introduce
troduco n most important and significan
change in the equipment of all the cav
airy , without exception , in the Gorman
army. It has bson decided that hence
forth carbines shall bo carried slung
across the back , instead of in a leather
case over the right thigh ; and , further
more , that all sabroa shall be suspended
from the saddle instead of being buckle :
to the waistband. The high-peaked
Hungarian saddle , too , which is used by
all kinds of the cavalry arm except the
cuirassiers , Is to bo discarded In favor ol
a lighter and moro convenient ono , some
what resembling the English hunting
pattern , while the burden of both horse
md man is to bo very considerably
jghtcned. For example : two spare
iiorseshoea , a fore and a hind ono , will
icncoforth bo taken into the field , In
stead of four , and the kit of the troopers
s to be much reduced.
The fundamental idea at the bottom of
.his radical reform is that all the cavalry
must in future bo trained moro than ever
o act as infantry , as may be inferred
rom the fact that the carbine , and not
ho sabre , is the weapon that will remain
nseperablo from Its owner. It haa been
ound that in acting as dismounted infan-
ry , so to speak.the troopers are too much
mpeded by the trailing of the sabro , and
o this weapon U to bo detached altogether
rom its wiolder. A cavalry soldier strut-
Ing along without what has heretofore
} een his most distinctive arm will be a
level sight , and will indicate a rude
Broach with the traditions of the past ;
out the breach has been decided on.
A year or two ago all the Russian cav
il ry of the line was converted or ordered
o bo converted , into the ono uniform
ypo of dragoon soldier or mounted infan-
ryman ; and now the grand general staff
lero would acorn to bo impressed with the
lecesaity of making an analogous change
n the Gorman cavalry , and of thus ren-
lering It equal to the now exigencies of
nodorn warfare.

Romance ( if * Desperado ,
Chicago Herald.
The desperado called "Omaha" Char-
oy , who was lynched in Missouri a day
> r two ago , owed his ability to commit a
rime and suffer for it in the way ho did
o the death-bed prayer of a child. Some
rears ago ho was in the Missouri poniton-
iary at Joflorson City , and , being consld-
rod trusty , was employed to aomo oxtout
tround the governor's mantiou. Here ho
oil in with Mr. Orittendon's little daugh-
-or , who took a fancy to him , more espe-
: ially because he was ingenious in the
nanufacturo of toys. Finally the child
vas taken sick and when she realized
hat she must die , she called her father to
lor and made him promise that ho would
mrdon the convict. After the funeral
.ho . governor iasuod the pardon , giving no
eason for it ether than that it was in fu- !
illmont of a promise exacted from him by
ils child. The people of Missouri were
lot pleased with the prisoner's roleaao ,
) ut the executive's action was not severe-
y criticised. Once free "Omaha" Char-
oy resumed his desperate habits , and ,
after participating in many ntlrays , finally
murdered a man last week , for which ho
was lynched. There are some promises
which are better broken than kept , and
the ono that the governor of Missouri
made in thia case waa ono of them.

Governor Richard Ooko was in oilicotha
the present organization of rangers wn

? 300,000 to protect the border counties
nnd n suitable police , under the centre
of the state and Adjutant-General Stcol
was immediately formed.
"It consisted then of six companies o
sovonty-fivo men each. Each compau ;
was commanded by a captain , two lieu
tenants , three sergeants and tour corpo
rals. It was soon found that the appro
priatlon would not bo sufficient to supper
this establishment , and reductions had tt
bo made from time to time , so that a
present the companies nro only twnty
five strong , and hnvo but ono captainou
lieutenant , ouo sergeant and two corpo
rals each. "
' What would bo nbjut the prosou
strength of the force ? "
"About 150 men which Is ample jus
now. In 1882 , " continued the marshal
"Congressman Upaon of Bexnr county

houses and was approved by the proal
dent , refunding to the state § 1,000,000
expended for frontier dofonao , but owluj ,
to rod tape the money haa not yet boon
received by the stato. "
"What ia the prcsentpay of a ranger ? '
"Well a captain gets § 100 a month
rations , and allowance for two horses , n
Kotitentant $75 , same rations and allow
nnco for two horaee ; a sergeant , $50
rations and allowance for one horse ; a
corporal $35 , rations and allowance for
ono horse : and a private , $30 , and al
lowance for the same as corporal , Pri
vates uaed to receive § 40 when the bat
talion was first organized. "
"What does the allowance for a. horse
amout to ? "
"A little over § 11 a month. The men
provide their own horses and arms , bul
the state furnish all the ammunition
they require. "
"Aro the men all Toanna ? "
No ; the rule ia the reverse. They are
from every state in the union , and many
of them are younp : fellows most respecta
bly connected. Very few of the old
hands , except the oflicors , are now in
the service. Captt L. P. Solker is the
veteran of the battalion. Ho joined in
ilay , 18C4 , and1 has served without losing
a day over since. Ho is now captain of
company D , whteh ho entered as a pri
vate. This company killed more Indians
and rustlers than any other in the ser
vice. "
"What are the asual duties of a ranger -
gor ? "
"Ho is a state police officer nnd a sol
dier at the same tlaie. In the ono ca-
lacity ho performs the duties of a deputy
ihoriir and is in addition empowered to
arrest without warrant all fugitives from
uatico In the state , A list of these fugl-
ivos is furnished from thr office of the
adjutant general from time to time for
ho information of the rangers. Like to
eo it ? "
The scribe said ho would , and Mr. Gil-
ott produced the ponderous roll of cloao-
y written foolscap containing the names
and description of fully 5,000 criminals
with whom the state was desirous to re
new acquaintance ,
"I joined the service , " continued the

Wo had lively times just then , I can as-

A couple of poor Iron worltors of D\n
ville , Pn. , recently ntruck it rich. The
mills of Danville nro closed , and these
two men , out tf regular employment ,
went to digging roots nnd herbs lor th (
drug stores nnd groceries. They wore
digging ou nn island in the SuEquohanno
river nnd found n strong b ( \ but u little
under the soil. Opening the box they
lound it full of coin § 17,000 in nil :
$10,000 in Mexican nilvei : dollars , § 1)0- )
000 in gold , nnd § 1,000 in small eilvet
coins. The dates go back as far ns 1832 ,
nnd na Into ns 1808. The box is supposed
to have been put there by bank robbers ,
as no other theory fits the case , aud now
all the unemployed workmen in the
Danville mills nro digging for roots and
herbs , and the market is glutted.

There is _ a proposition to build a con
tinuous line of railway from London to
Bombay , a distance of about 5,000 miles.
The line would cross Into Africa nt Gib
raltar , and from Tnngiera connect with
lines already in operation in Algeria ,
across Morocco via Tunis and Tripoli to
Cairo , thence by way of the Isthmus of
Suezdown _ the rlvor Euphrates and the
Persian gulf shore to a connection with
Iho Indian system of railways which runs
to Bombay. The project haa been do-
viaed by a joint commission of Engliah
and French engineers , and it will bo a
: ontiuuous line from London , excepting
; ho crossing of the straits of Dover and
Gibraltar. When it is completed America
will be compelled to got Gould and Van-
lorbilt to combine long enough to build
; ho railway line to South America via the
isthmus of Panama , In order that the
now world may not bo eclipsed by the
old.
