The Judge gave him thirty daysand the patrol-wagon hurried him to the County Jail. Held for Bigamy. Thomas J. Duffy, the San Francisco fire- man who was arrested some time ago on a charge of bigamy preferred by Mrs. Mary Brown_of n Francisco, was held by Judge Wood in the Police Court yesterday to appear before the Superior Court. His bonds were fixed at $2000. Mrs. Brown, who is the mother of Duffy’s legal wife, learned that her son-in-law had wedded an Oakland girl after his marriage with her daughter, and had him arreste: 1us_x as he was preparing to sail for the north in a hunter schooner.

ARE RECEIVED. TELEGRAMS Great Interest Manifested in the Election Which Takes Place To-Day. More than 300 members and visitors were present when the session of the Grand { Lodge of Ladies and Knights of Honor as called to order at 10:30 A. M. yesterday by Grand Protector C. C. O'Donnell in Pythian Castle. After the usunal preliminaries the mem- bers got down to the important issues with- out delay. The first great question to come up was with reference to the place of meeting of the Grand Lodge. A long and hot fight ensued, and it was finally deter- mined that the Grand Lodge could here- after hold its meeting anywhere in the State. Next came the question of the per capita tax, which a number of delegates desired | to have reduced, but a vote showed that | the majority were in favor of maintaining it at its present figure. A telegram of greeting was sent to Su- preme Protector L. B. Lockard at Brad- ford, Pa., and then a resolution was adopted approving his course in bringing | about an increase of 10,000 in the member- | bership of the order during the past year. | _ It was decided that hereafter the Grand | Lodge meet biennially instead of annually | as heretofore. Immediately after the con- | vention is called to order to-day the nomi- nation and election of officers will be taken | up. Interest centers mostly in the con- tests for grand protector and supreme Tepresentative. The candidates for the various offices thus far announced follow: Grand pro- | tector, Dr. D. F. Kemp Van Ee of this city land T. A. Lauder of Sacramento; grand | vice-recorder, Miss Emma T. Parker of this | city ; grand secretary, 8. B. Carleton (in- | cumbent); grand treasurer, J. W.

Its powers of preserva- tion are also much greater. The United States has been making exhaustive trials of a kind of guncotton known as emmen- site.

The Government system was es- tablished, in connection with postal busi- ness, as far back as 1864, and grew rapidly for eighteen years. When, however, in 1882, private concerns entered the field, a falling off in the Government business was observed, and a year or two ago the Fed- eral joint commission for investigating the status of the executive departments took up the question of the dwindling revenues It gets its | The lyddite shells have | This_ex- | from the Postal Money-order Department. A number of recommendations were made, and, some months since, postal notes were abolished with a view of increasing the de- mand for money-orders. Improvement in the Government’s busi- ness followed, but, as pointed out by the commission, the private corporations still enjoy advantages to such an extent that the advisability has been suggested of look- ing into the legality of the money order business as tran ed by express compa- nies. The commission of 1893 said in its report that the advantages of the express companies were: First—That the sender of an express money order was not required to file an application blank; second, that the sender got a receipt; third, that the | express companies’ rates were cheaper than those of the Government. Because of these advantages, according to the report, the business of the express companies grew from less than 5000 orders in 1882 to 7,000,000 last year. It has been suggested that the express companies in their money order opera- tions have been encroaching upon the ex- change departments of banks, as well as upon the Government’s territory, and the banks have been represented as willing to co-operate with the Government in making a legal test of the express companies’ rights in exercising functions of a semi-banking | character. A leading corporation lawyer of this city said yesterday, with reference to the mat- ter: ~““The reason the expiess companies outstrip the Government in the money order business is that they assume respon- sibility for losses of money inu-usoeg to their care, and, as private concerns, are sueable. This is not true of the Govern- ment. Except by special statute, or through the department of claims, a pri- vate citizen cannot maintain an action against the Federal Government, and when an individual’s mouney is lost in any way, it is poor satisfaction for the Government to sav ‘we are very sorry’ or institute due diligence to find out where the money has gone, and yet fail to make restitution. This Is the whole secret of the advantage of pri- vate over Government enterprise under existing law. I donot see how under State or Federal Jaw the express companies can | be prevented from carrying on their pres- | ent line of business.”—Baltimore Ameri- can. SENG SEISIN BT It Is Now at Its Height in the Gulf of St. Law- rence. Newfoundland and Canadian Hun- ters Rlvals In the Same Field of Operations. The sealing season in thejGulf of St. Law- rence is now at its height and promiSes to | be & most successful one. The largest share of the prize in t fishery falls to the seal fishermen of Newfoundland, and the steam- ers employed by the islanders have made large catches on their first trips of the sea- son and have returned to sea for more, | says the Quebec correspondent of the New | York Sun This Atlantic seal is much less vatuable than its Alaskan cousin, and is generally ; | known as the hairy or harp seal, the latter | name coming from a large, black, crescent- | shaped mark on each side of the back. To science it is known as the Phoca Greenlan- | dica. An adult is from six to eight feet in length. Its stiff hair-covered skin is in its | raw state worth only about one-tenth as much as the skin of the fur seal of the Pa- cific. There isadiffenence in its habits and the methods of its capture. The hunting of the Atlantic seal is carried on upon the floating ice in the Gulf of 8t. Lawrence, throughout nearly its whole extent, al- though it seldom happens that the schoon- ers go higher up than Gaspe Cape t0 try their fortunes in the River St. Lawrence. Some of the animals follow the salmon, of which they are very fond, up to the Sague- nay and other fresh-water tributaries of the | St” Lawrence, and specimens have been seen and taken at Quebec. The greatest number of them are found u{xou the north shore of the gulf, near the island of Anti- costi, at the entrance of the Straits of Belle Isle, off the island of Newfoundland and at the Magdalen Islands. They penetrate the | Gulf of St. Lawrence in enormous herds in the month of December, and the females upon the floating ice about the middle | or end of March to bring forth their young. It is only at this period that hunters are | able to kill the young. They either shoot them, or, more frequently, stun them with | their clubs. When the seals take to the water they are safe from pursuit. The adult seals found upon floating ice are also | killed in Jarge numbe: Sometimes they | are so closely packed together that they | can find no open space through which to f’ plunge into the water and escape pursuit. | Then great slaughter ensues, and crews of | seven men have been known to kill hun- | dreds. Private advices from the gulf report the presence there of vast numbers of seals | this spring, and so far the movements of | the ice have been favorable to the killing of | many cargoes, especially by the crews of steamers. The steamer Aurora of St. | Jonns, N. F., has taken 30,000; the Alger- ine, 10,000; the Newfoundland and Green- | land, 5000 each, and the Wolf and Neptune | have full cargoes. On the Magdalen Islands the hunters | wait for the ice to drift in to shore before | the wind, when they rush upon it with | clubs, stun all the seals within reach, and | then use their knives to dispatch them and | remove the skin and fat. Sometimes a | thousand are thus killéd in a single d Some vears ago 6000 were killed by ti islanders in three days. When the condi- tions ar~ favorable the slaughter goes on by night as well as by day, but it is dan- gerous work, for at times the wind changes suddenly and carries the ice floes and all urun them out to sea. A considerable loss of life is already reported this spring from the sea-hunting grounds, principally h( the crushing between the ice of the small schooners which Canadians employ in the work instead of the well-equipped steamers of the Newfoundlanders. The schooner Ray lost two men, and the Notice two men also. James Sang and his son William were driven out to sea in a small boat and lost while going after some seals that could be seen from the shore. The schooners Caro- | line and Louise have been crushed in the ice and sunk, their crews narrowly escap- reported this year among the seal-hunters than for some seasons past. Probably not more than from 40,000 to 60,000 seals of all those killed annually in the gulf are taken by Canadian hunters, though many of the Newfoundiand hunters are engaged by Canadian companies, which u?so own some of the Newfoundland steamships. The absence of any obsery- able diminution in the number of the seals in the gulf is due not to any system of Canadian protection, but to the crude appli- ances for taking the animals. In New- foundland there is a limit as to size, ana seals failing to come up to the standardare unsalable. X The hunters or companies employing them recei7e from $2 50 to $3 each for the skin and fat of the seal, the only market- able portions. The fat of the young seals is tender and melts easily in the sun. It yields a very fine oil, which is white and almost devoid of unpleasant smell. The sking, which in their rough state are worth only $1 each, are cured and dressed, and employed for a number of rough pur- poses. Both coats and coat-linings of them are fashionable for winter wear in _some parts of Canada in natural colors. When dyed black they are used by the Canadian Government for the manufacture of winter hats and gloves for the Dominion militia. ————————— The Discovery of Helium, The British chemist who l'zcemllvl found in a terrestrial mineral the element helium, hitherto believed to exist only in the sun and a few stars, was Professor William Ramsey, and not Lord Rayleigh, the dis- coverer of argon, as {nvlqully announced, says the New York Times.
