BOTANY BAY HISTORY
f THE TRUE STORY OF THE NOTORI
OUS SOUTH SEA SITE.
No Convict WM Ever Landed There, No
Settlement Ever Made There, and It I
Hm Never Had Anything to I>o With
England's Penal System.
The first conviot fleet sailed away
y from England in May, 1787, called at
\Rio Janeiro and arrived at Botany Bay
ttkrly in January, 1788. In the fleet
tvero a 20 gun frigate, an armed tender,
1 three storesbips and six transports, far
k tho largest fleet that ever sailed to tbo
" South sea, though the largest vessel
measured only 450 tons and the small
est only 270 tons.
On the six small transports for this
long, tropical voyage were packed con
victs numbering 504 men and 192 wom
en. Thorn were also carried 108 marines
and 10 officers, a few surgeons and me
chanics, the wives of 40 of the marines
and 13 children, the offspring of con
viots. Approximately 1,000 persons
thereforo went to found the colony in
the newest world less than 110 years
old. Captain Philip of the British navy
was placed in command of the expedi
tion and given a commission as governor
and captain general of New South
g It is easy for the visitor of today to
understand the blank dismay that Philip
when the fleet sailed
B >y and ho saw fur tbo
JMK place which had been
HP jjL. Hi to him as the spot for set
-Wsf. Iflw ' had been selected by the ad
jpuptain Cook, whose botanists
fyLjW so delighted with the profu
>|R* vf w plants they found there that
a'tafi given it the expressive name.
1 ' Phnkwluund on first examination that
A J a ruOTe unsuitable site for a new settlo
ment hardly could have been chosen.
j£M buy was shallow, there was no
£9 good anchorage, there was no good wa
njl tor, and the adjacent laud was not for
tile, except fur botanical specimens.
Leaving the fleet anchored in tbo bay,
MB Philip started up the coast in bis tender
rN to hunt for a better home. Nine miles
■ to the northward he found himself fac-
J ing those great gates now known as
Sydney head, which Cook had seen
uM from a distance, and, satisfied with
fSy Botany Buy, had marked on his chart
as a jfbggible harbor for small boats.
It % Philip rounded the south head and was
K&JH amazed to see opening before him tho
■BR bays of Port Jackson—Snyder harbor
KM now—famed the world ovorus the finest
■Li harbor in tho soven seas and disputed
Bnl for that distinction by few. Three days
Mof exploration left no possible doubt
this was the place to be selected,
|Ey|and Philip returned at once to Botany.
The fleet was standing out of the bay,
[ when two French frigates appeared in
the ofßng. They bore an exploring party
under Comte de la Perouse, without
> hostile intentions, whiuh was an im
mense relief to the colonists. Botany
Bay was left to the Frenchmen. They
k refreshed and refitted there, staying un
til March, and burying on shore one of
their company, the naturalist of tho ex
pedition, who died of wounds received
in an encounter with the natives of an
island they had touched. A few months
Jpter the French expedition was ship
wrecked, and every one of the crew was
murdered by the natives of Vanikoro,
. one of the Santa Cruz islands. In 1825
a monument wus erected by the French
P government to the memory of the com
f mander of tho expedition at Botany
Bay.
This is all of the story of Botany Bay,
a name long infamous because of its as
sociation with convict transportation.
No convict ever was landed thore, no
settlement ever was made there, and it
never had anything more to do with tho
related. It is a
bay, with an so wide
to leave it almost an open roadstead.
>Che shores are flat, low, sandy and uu
fy 1 interesting.
r When I went thero not long ago, tho
tide was out and the beach was foul
with all sorts of drifts. Ono peuinsnlu,
which juts between the bay and the
ocean, has been reserved for noxious
trades, and they will elbow tho obelisk
erected to the memory of Captain Cook,
so that in the future the bay will be no
more savory than its nam® has been,
unjustly, in the past. The French mon
ument is at the other side of the en
trance to tho hay.
It was the 36th of January, 1788,
when the fleet of Governor Arthur
Philip entered what is now Sydney bar
bor. Tho settlement of the continent of
A . Australia was begun.—Chicago Itooord.
He Should Have Brought Them.
1 A doctor tells a good story in connec
tion with a lad who, until recently,
was in bis employ. It was part of his
duties to answer the surgery bell and
to nßher the prospective patients into
the consulting room. One morning
there presented himself at the surgory
entrance a mechanic with whom But
tons was on speaking terms.
"Hello, Jackson I" ho romarkod.
"What's the matter with ye?"
"Oh, I just want to see the doctor,"
tepliod the visitor.
"Have yer brought yer symptoms
with yer?" inquired Buttons. "That's
the fust thing he'll usk yer about. If ye
ain't brought 'em, ye'd better pop back,
an get 'em. He won't be down for a
quarter of an hour, an he's awful per
tikler about 'em!"
1 "And would you believo it?" adds
the doctor, "that fellow was actually
about to act on the boy's advice when
I entered the surgery!"—Pearson's
Weekly.
The citizens of Berlin have a sum
mary method of stopping the dangerous
praotice of carrying sticks and umbrel
las horizontally. As soon us a man
tucks his umbrella under bis arm be
will promptly feel a qniok blow on it
J from behind. There is no use in his get
v ling angry with the person who strikes
the blow, because public opinion sano
dons his oonduct.
I NOTES.
A war poem by Rudyard Kipling—
a poem of torpedoes and torpedo
boats— will be one of the features of
MCCLURE'S MAGAZINE for May.
A romantic short story ot the Arc
tic regions by a new writer, Mr. John
A. Hill, will appear in MCCLURE'S
MAGAZINE for May.
The foremost authority in all the
world on the subject of earthquakes,
John Milne, and his unique earth
quake observatory in the Isle of
Wight will be the subject of an illus
trated article in MCCLURE'S MAGA
ZINE for May. The article will des
cribe how, by the scientific appliances
invented and set up by Prof. Milne,
the slightest tremor of the earth, in
however remote a quarter, is instantly
measured and recorded and the place
of its occurrence disclosed, whether
on the land or under the sea.
In MCCLURE'S MAGAZINE for May
Hamlin Gailand will tell the ever
interesting and ever-tragic story of
General Grant's last year. In prepar
ing his paper, Mr. Garland has had
access to important unpublished ma
terial ; for example, he will give many
passages from Grant's last conversa
tions. f
The instalment of Charles A. Dana's
"Recollections" in the May number
of MCCLURE'S MAGAZINE will give
some striking pen-portraits of the
generals associated with Grant in the
Army of the Potomac. It will also
describe the almost ridiculous panic
in Washington at the time of the
Early raid.
A series of life portraits of Thomas
Jefferson, with introduction aud notes
by Charles Henry Hart, will appear iu
MCCLURE'S MAGAZINE for May.
The languor so common at this
season is due to impoverished blood.
Hood's Sarsaparilla cures it by enrich
ing the blood.
McOlure's Magazine for May-
At a moment when war and all its
appliances and aspects have an es
pecial interest, no doubt the first
thing turned to in Me Clare's Maga
zine for May will be Rudyard Kipling's
poem on the torpedo. In a recent
statement by Lieutenant G. E. Arm
strong that "the torpedo has brought
into the navy a fresh zest, a new ro
mance, and possibilities more brilliant
than were existest before its adop
tion," Mr. Kipling has found an idea
of just the sort he loves, and develop
ed thereon a poem in his noblest
manner—majestic in movement, feli
citous and dramatic in description,
and mystical and deep searching in
sentiment. It is truly great in its
individual expressions, and greater yet
in its complete effect and impression.
The conditions of the present mo
ment give a special interest also to
Mr. Hamlin Garland's intimate story
of the last year in the life ot General
Grant, since Grant is still our proud
est memory and our readiest inspira
tion in a season of paiticular warward
impulse. While in its main lines Mr.
Garland's story is, of necessity, the
familiar one of unspeakable suffering
borne with heroic patience, yet it
adds a number of new incidents and
unpublished passages from Grant's
last conversations that are of great
interest.
This number contains two excellent
short stories by new writers. One is
a story of ''The Polar Zone," by John
A. Hill, which in perfectly convincing
improbability and fervor ot imagina
tion almost equals Poe. The other
is a kindly, humorous Memorial Day
story—"Uncle Luther Dowell's Wood
en Leg"—by Ray Stannard Baker.
An instalment of Anthony Hope's
"Rupert of Hentzau" particularly stir
ring and absorbing, adds further note
woithiness to the fiction of the num
ber.
Charles A. Dana's personal recol
lections of Meade, Hancock, Sedg
wick, Humphreys, and the other gen
erals serving under Grant in the Army
of the Potomac; Cleveland Moffett's
account of John Milne, the man who,
ot HI the world, knows most about
earthquakes, and of his earthquake
observatory, where the slightest tremor
of any part of the earth is automati
cally recorded and located ; and
Charles Theodore Murray's descrip
tion of his voyage across the ocean
with the circus, illustrated with pictures
drawn from life by C. K. Ltnson, are
other items ot the number which read
ers will find more than keeping their
promise in point of instruction as well
as of interest.

POPULAR SCIENCE.
Spiral growth in plants is one of
the mysteries yet to be worked out by
natuialists.
A huge eel of the Fiji Islands, fif
teen feet long, is reported to have a
peculiar throat formation, causing it
to whistle when excited.
French Guiana is said to have the
most violent thunderstorms in the
world. The thunder is almost deaf
ening, and the peals come in quick
succession.
The gradual cooling of France is
proved by its vegetation. The Italian
pop'ar, common in early French etch
ing, is now seldom seen in the country,
while the lemon has disappeared froin
Languedoc and the orange from Rous
sillon, and the northern limit of many
plant species has shifted far to the
southward.
Ocean ivaves have on a number of
occasions dashed over the tops of
lighthouses which are 150 feet high.
As a wave in the open ocean is ac
companied by a depression as deep
as the wave is high, a ship in the
trough of the sea encountering such
waves would he banked by hills of
water, if the term may he used, 300
feet high.
Competition in the use of the X
rays seems impending in England.
The Treasurer of St. Thomas's Hos
pital, in London, has written to the
London Times protesting that where
as some beggarly fifty-seven cases of
the use of X rays in the Liverpool
Hospital were considered worthy of
mention, no account had been taken
of the 416 similar cases at St.
Thomas's, which had involved the
appointment of an assistant operator.
Three of the best New York Cen
tral men testify that they would never
under any circumstances reverse their
engines in order to bring the train to
a stop. When they had to stop their
train in the shortest possib'e distance,
they shut off the steam and applied
the air, and did nothing else ; there
was only one quicker way to stop a
train, and that was to run into some
thing. They agreed that upon rever
sing, the back pressure in the cylin
ders was so great as to lock the driv
ers and cause them to slide, thus
losing the braking power of the loco
motive. Neither did they af prove of
sanding the tracks, for nothing seem
ed to be gained by it.
"MY LIFE DESPAIRED OF.''— These
are words of Mrs. Wm. Burton of
Dartmore, Ont., after doctors had pre
scribed and she had tahen every
known heart remedy. Dr. Agnew's
Cure for the Heart gave relief in a'-
most shorter time than it takes to tell
it—it worked a wonderful cure an a
case of long standing and to-day she
says : "I am a well woman." Dr.
Agnew's Cure for the Hea't has no
case recorded against it where it did
not give relief inside of 30 minutes.

The recent opening of valuable
mines in tne west and northwest will
give a stimulus to industrial enter
prises generally in the country and
relieve the gorge of money in the
older cities. Profitable investments
will be found in mining and manufact
uring throughout the Rocky mountain
region. These will draw from the
east millions of dollars, which will be
applied for mutual advantage to the
investors and to the thrifty and indus
trious western workers who use it.
An ill natured spinner of cobwebs
of the brain gives it as his opinion
that if a woman's chance of getting a
husband depended on her beauty then
few ladies would marry, for pretty
women are the exception, not the
rule, among the feminine sex. Let
this man go bury himself. He is
wrong. There are far more pretty
women than homely ones, even with
out the application of the old saying
that handsome is as handsome does.
We repeat it—there are more comely
women than uncomely ones. Wher
ever there is a sweet tempered, intelli
gent, sincere, healthy, immaculately
clean woman there you will find a
pretty woman, and mankind may
thank its stars that theie are millions
of these.
STOP THAT HEAD COLD IN 10
