Peaceful Rest.

On Sunday last, May 13, Mrs. Grace A. Ellis, beloved wife of C. Elmer Ellis, re. siding on the Deacon Bacon plece, was translated to the peaceful rest of those who die in the Lord. Mrs. Ellis was the

danghter of Mr. and Mrs. Samuel A. Peary. She leaves two little children, one two years and the other one week old. Mra. Ellis at her death was but 21 years and 7 months of age. Her beau ti-

seemed to be needed in the holy calling of wife and mother, He who knoweth all summoned her to the higher service of

that larger life beyond. Mrs. Ellis was a member of the Evangelical church at Everett. The funeral service was held at the house Tuesday, at 2 o'clock, Rev.

For the encouragement and help of those present Mr. Cook gave a tender message of the sweet gospel of love from the text "Jesus Wept." Jesus was set forth ss the great sympathizer, who be-

SABLE ISLAND PONIES.

They Are Sald to Resemble Those Found on the Sculptures of Nineveh Island.

The story of animal life on Sable is land is strange. Roaming the sandy wastes are herds of wild ponies guard- ed by patriarchal stallions. These

ponies resemble the horses on the sculptures of Nineveh, and approach the heholder seemingly out of the framework of antiquity. They are stocky and remarkable for their long manes, which in instances have been known to grow to the length of three Fards. These ponies are the remnant of a stock thought to have been left hy some Portuguese fishermen-"Portin- Falls" the old records quaintIy call them-who touched at the island on their fishing expeditions at eren a earlier date than Marquis de la Roche. At one time there Were from 400 to 500 wild ponies on the island, but their number has heen decreased by exporta- tion, the severity of the winters, and, some people think, by the Importation of improved, domesticated stallions which have made the stook less hards and consequently more susceptible to death from exposure. There are now between $) and 100 wild ponies and ahout 30 for domestic use. Mounted on ponies, the life-savers gallop over the dones and among the hillocks on their long patrols, and the life-boats are drawn to the scenes of shipwreck hy teams of five ponies, three at the shaft and two leaders. Some of the wild ponies are sent to Halifax every year or :wo, and are sold at auction at an aver- age price of from $15 lo $15.

The "Portingalls" also stocked the island with cattle, which increased so rapidly that people from the mainland made expeditions to the island and re- turned with enough live stock to make their trips most profitable. At one time the island was quite overrun with rab- bits. Then Go rat-infested Norwegian vessels were wrecked there and the rats, swimming arbore. began to ex- terminate the rabbits and. to attack the government stores. Ca's were then im- ported from Hadfax to kill the rats, and after awhile the cats increase ' so in number that dogs were 'mperted to kill the ca's. Latterly the island was again overrun with rais from wrecker! vessels. and another cargo of cats was im ported from Halifax. Once there were pigs on the island: but they have been e terminated because they had become ghouls feasting o the remains of cast- aways.

MARK TWAIN'S DEBUT.

How the Famous Fon-Maker Became "A Literary Persun," Thirty- Three Years Ago.

Mark Twain's first appearance In ar. eastern napazine was made over the Tame of "Mike Swain." How it.cana ily ut he exp ains :

In those var'y days I had already nbpissed ine htt.e thing ("The Jump- ... Fr g") in an eastern paper, but 1 did not consider that that counte L. In my view, a person who publi, hedl things in a mere newspaper could not prop- erly claim recognition as a literary per son; he must rise away above that; he must appear ing a magazine. Ile wouh! then be a literary person: alan, he would be famous-right away. These two ambitions were strong upon uie. This was in 1466. I prepared my con- tribution, and then looked around for the best mingazine to go up to glory in. I selected the most important one in New York. The emtribution was ne- repted. 1 signed It "Mark Twain:" for that name had some currency on the Pacific coast, and it was my idea to spread it all over the world, now, al this one jump. The article appeared in the December number, and I sat up a month waiting for the January num ber: for that one would contain the year's list of contributors, my nauwe would be in it, and I should be famous .nul could give the banquet I was quedi. ating.

1 ihid not give the bauquet. I had # it written the "Mark Twain" 'stlgetly : it was n fresh name to eastern printer%. and they put it "Mike Swain" or "Mac- Swain," I do not remember which. . \t any rate. I was not celebrated, une 1 did not give the banquet. I wasn lit- erary Person, but that was all-> burie . me; buried alive.

My article was about the burning ol thr copper ship Hornet on the line. May 3. 150G. There were 31 men on bari at the time, and I was in Ilono- Inl when the 13 lean and ghostly sur- vivers arrived there after a voyage of I, dass in an open boat, through the Hazing tropics, un teu days' rations of food. A very remarkable trip; but it was conducted by a captain who was a remarkable man, otherwise there would have been no survivors. lie was a New Eugennder of the best sva going stock of the old capable times-Capt Josiah Mitchell.

I was in the islands to write letters for the weekly edition of the Sacra- mento Union, a rich and influential daily journal which hadn't any use for them, but could afford to spend $20 4 week for nothing. The proprietors were lovable and well-heloved men; long ago dead, no doubt, but in me there is at least one person who still holds them in grateful remembrance; for I dearly wanted to see the islands and they listened to me and gave me the opportunity when there was but slender likelihood that it could profi' them in any way.

I had been in The Islands several months when the survivors arrived. I was laid up in my room at the time and unable to walk. Here was a great occasion to serve my journal, and I not able to take advantage of it. Neces- sarily I was in deep trouble. But hy good luck his excellency Anson Bur- lingame was there at the time, on his way to take up bis post in China, where he dil such good work for the L'nited States. Ile came and put me on a stretcher and had me carried to the hospital where the shipwrecked men were, and I never needed to ask a ques- tion. He attended to all of that him- self, and I had nothing to do but make the notes. It was like him to take that trouble. He was a great man and a great American, and it wa> in his fine nature to come down from his high office and do a friendly turn whenever he could .- Century.
