A HYSTERY OF THE SEA.
The Fate vvrucli Overtook tlie
''City ot Boston. '——Captain
Murray's Ideas and Ex *
periences.
A few years ago, the "City of Bos
ton" sailed fr-mi harbor, crowded with
an expectant throng of passengers
bouud for a foreign shore.
She never entered port.
The mystery of her untimely end
grows deeper as the years increase, and
the Atlantic voyager, when the fierce
wind howl around and danger i? im
minent on every hand, shudders as the
liflme and mysterious fat* of that mag
nificent vessel are alluded to
Oar reporter, on a recent visit to
New York, took lunch with Captain
George Siddons Murray, on board the
"Alaska," of the Guion line. Captain
Murray is n man of stalwart build,
well knit frame and cheery, genial dis
position. He has been a constant voy
ager for a f|uarter of a century, o»er
half of that time having been in the
trans-Atlantic service. In the course
of the conversation over the well-spread
table, the mystery of the "City of Bos
ton'' was alluded to.
"Yes," remarked the Captain, "I
shall never forget the last night we
saw that ill-fitted vessel. I was
chief officer of the' City of Antwerp."
On the dav wo sighted the "City of
Boston" a furious outheast hurricane
eet in. Both vessels labored hard.
The sea seemed determined to sweep
RW«V every vestige of life. When
day ended the gale did not abate, and
everything was lathed for a night of
unusal fury. Our g<x>d ship was turned
to the south to avoid the possibility of
ice-bergs. The 'City of Boston,'how
ever, undoubtedly went to the north,
her boats, life-preservers and raits were
all securely lashed; and when she went
down, everything went with her,
never to reappear until the sea gives
up its dead."
"What, in your opinion, Captain,
was the cause of the loss of the "City
of Boston?"
"The 'Citv of Limerick,'in precisely
the name latitude, a few days later,
lound the pea full of floating ice; and
I have no doubt the •City of Boston'
collided with the ice nnd sunk immedi
ately." •
Captain Murray has been in com
mand of the -Alaska" ever since she
was put in commission and feels justly
proud of his noble ship. She carries
thousands of passengers every year,
an<l has greatly popularized the Wil
liams L Guion line. Remarking upon
the bronzed and healthy appearance of
the Captain, the reporter said that sea
life did not seeni to be a very great
physical trial
' No? But a person's appearance is
not always a trust wort by indication of
his physical condition. For seven
years i have been in many respects
very much out of sorts with myself.
At certain times I was so lame that it
wan difficult for me to move around. I
could scarcely straighten up. I did not
kpow what the trouble was, and
though I performed all my duties reg
ularly and satisfactorily, yet I felt that
I might some day be overtaken with
some serious prostrating disorder.
These troubles increased. I felt dull
and then, agniri, shooting pains through
my arms and limbs. Possibly the next
day I would feel Unshed and unaccount
ably uneasy and the day following
chilly and despondent. Thiseontinued
until last December, when 1 was pros
trated soon after leaving uoenstown,
and for the remainder of the voyage
was a helpless, pitifnl sufferer, In
January last, a friend who made that
voyage with me, wrote me a letter urg
ing me to try a new course of treat
ment I gladly accepted his counsel,
and for the last seven months have
given thorough nnd business-like at
tention to the recovery of my natural
health; and to day, I have the proud
satisfaction of saying to you that the
lame back, the strange feelings, the
sciatic rheumatism which have so loug
pursued me, have entirely disappeared
through the blood purifying influence
of Warner's Safe Rheumatic Cure
which entirely eradicated all rheumatic
poison from my system. Indeed, to
me, it seems that it has worked wonders,
and I therefore most cordially coru
mer.d it."
"And you have no trouble no /? in
exposing yourself to the winds of the
Atlantic ?"
"Not the least. lam as sound as a
bullet and I fe< l specially thankful over
the fact because J believe rheumatic
and kidney diseas* is in the blood of
my family. I was dreadfully shocked
on my last arrival in Liverpool to learn
that my brother, who is a wealthy
China tea merchant, had suddenly died
of Bright's disease of the kidneys, and
consider myself extremely fortunate In
having taken my trouble in time and
lief are any in »rc serious effects were
po ''Bible."
The conversation drifted to other
foj ies, and us the writer watched the
lace before bint HO strong in all its out
lines and yet so genial, and thought of
the innumerable exposures and hard
ships to which it had been
exposed, he in n tinctively wished all
who are suffering from the terrible
rheumatic t rouble: 1 . now BO common
rnii'ht know of Captain Murray's ex
perience and ttin mean", by which he
had lK>i;n restored. I'ain is a common
thing in thin wor!<l, but far too runny
endure it when they tan avoid it It
iB a false philosophy which teaches us
to endure when we can just ae readily
avoid. So thought the hearty Captain
of the "Alaska", so thinks the writer
and so should nil others think who de
sire happiness and a IOD«£ life.

How Watch Cases are Made.
In 1875, thirteen men comprised the
entire working force used in the manu
facture of the James BosJ Gold Watch Case.
Now over five hundred are employed, and the
number is constantly increasing. The rea
-6.40 of this increase is this: In the James
lioss' Gold Watch Case all the metal in sight
and subject to wear is solid gold, while the re
mainder, which only lends strength to the
case, is of stronger metal than gold,
giving gold where gold is needed, and
strong, elastic metal where strength and
elasticity are needed, a combination pro
ducing a watch case better than solid gold
and at ONE-HALF the cost. Iba DO§LJ»M«*
Over 200,000 of these cases w
have lieen sold, and every jeweler in the
country can testify to their quality and
merit. LCDWOIOX, MICH., Dec. 6.13&2.
E W. March, of the Democrat, bought a Jas. Boss'
Gold Watch case 10 years tgo, and carried it until a
short time atro, when I purchased It. and sold It to a
customer. The case showed no tutfiis of wear,except
that natural to any case, and I am satisfied can be
saf.-ly iruaranteed for at least ten years more. I ha% e
sold ihe James BOBS' Gold Watch Ca*e for many years,
arid the parties who boUKht the tirst ones are carry
ing them to-day, as well satisfied as though they had
bought a solid (fold case costing twice the money. I
repaid them as the only cases of this kind a .Jeweler
should sell who desires to give his customers the

DAY S SOAP Will CLEAN SWffJF
I 1
No soda, no washing crystals, no lyes are to be used, but
•imnlv supply yourself fur the next wash-Jay with a bar of DAY •
SOAP then carefully read the directions and follow them to tht
exact 'letter, and if you don't say pitch out that old waeh-boiler.
for I am a wiser woman, you will be the first person we have heard of
that has been disappointed.
afl-Now remember —If you don't intend to follow the directions
do not try the soap at all, for unless you do this you will be disap.
pointed, and then you will scold us and yourself as well.
The cost of one cake will convince you that it is the best ana
cheapest soap offered you, while the smiles that will encircle your brow
will do justice to a golden sunset.
Ask your grocer for it. and do not allow him to put you off with
anything else for a substitute, for every dealer caa obtain it, and should
he refuse you send direct to
