boat in the storm, the boat bein.
heavily ballasted with iron titr
boarded down. llis cap wu»
picked on the shore of I'nga islam
about two weeks afterwards, which
goes toward ,proving the sad fatal
ity. Mr. Rockwell was a bright
and genial fellow, being much
liked hv those W ith whom he came
in contact. 11c was a native of

Formerly when a jterson wished
to take something front his fellow*
man, lie selected a dark night and
a stout chili and gratified his de
sire. Hut in our advanced civiliza-j
tion the same ends are attained by
i ‘‘sociable grf/ve of cards.” Oi
■oursc there is no harm in a game'
■i cards for pastime, but when it'
>ecomes gambling it is a contempt
i>le occupation onIv indulged in
