Th Sebooner Dalphia Tqraed Bot torn Upwards. wo "llea atjglit lixi the CaHa and After SpendlB- Six lloars la Trjlnr KeeaTiielr Heads lUre News reached tbe cKy a day or two ago of the death of three Americans off the coast of, Nicaragua. They had taken passage frorn the town of Prinsapulca and bound for Blueftekls. One of those terrific tropical white squalls' struck the 'schooner' and she went bottom upwards, and Benjamin KJster. of New Ky Bull Moran, of New and 6am Cerf, of New Albany, were drowned.

The vessel was the schooner DoCphln, whieb measured 'about 80 feet over all, and she was by Sam Wei and operated In a coasting trade, between Bluehelds and cape Grades a Dlos, the boundary one between Nicaragua and Honduras. The vessel cleared from Blnenelds during the last days of November and made her cruise aUong the coast northward and then started down toward her native port. She was commanded by Captain James Thompson, one of the old sailors of that section of the tropics, 'and carried a crew of 'baifbreed Carlbs. who are noted throughout the tropics as the most fearless and competent sailors who ever manned a vessel in the Caribbean sea. After leaving the famous old cspe where (JoiumDus la supposed to nave nrst touched the there was line weather.

A light northeavt wind carried tbe trim comfortably down the coast Une, and on tbe lat of December, at about 9 o'clock in the monung, she came to anchor off the mouth of Prlnza-pu'ca river, where the tittle village by that name is sreuated. B. IT. KJster end Bull Moran met the schooner there and took passage for Blnenelds. They had been in the Wawa river section on business.

Mt. Kteter was interested in mining at that point, while Mr. Moran had been selected by. Hoadley, IngaKs of New York, to examine the saw mill at Wawa river and recommend a number of needed repairs. He arrived In the tropics about a month before the accident, and had Just completed duties when he traveled to Prlnxapalca.

It waa his Intention to return to Braeflelds and "there take passage by steamer for New Orleana and submit his report to his firm in New was not much delay at Prinza pulca, and before noon the. vessel again fot under way Sam Cerf. who tired in Llueflelds, and E. Mallits and two Spaniards also took passage at the same point. The vessel carried but a very light cargo, and.

like a majority of the small schooners in the waa. not heavily ballasted. The captains- nsuaKy keep their vessels light, in order that they can crosa the shallow bars during tbe dry seasons. This was the ease with the Dolphin. For several hours after leaving the river there waa but a ilght breese, and at 5 o'clock the following afternoon the schooner bad made Rio Grande, a point some- forty miles north of Blnenelds.

The wind died out, almost entirely- later on in the evening. and. with the sinking-. of the sun came an almost dead cairn. All sail was.

set, and hour after hoar she drifted southwards. Cerf made a bunk on deck away aft near the cockolt, wb-le 0fa41its and later made their feeds toon the top of the cabin, and Moran slept to the starboard of the cabin trunk upon the narrow strip of deck between the cabin and the rail Captain Thompson, telling of the accident later in Blnenelds, said that it wa possibly 2 o'clock, in the morning before any breese came at all. Then there was a light freshening, but away off on the horizon could toe seen clouds which had an uglv appearance. He had no idea that a squall would reach him before daylight, and. in fact, there was no real indication of a heavy blow.

Suddcny, however, the wind came all in a rash. The first puff was terrific. Tbe little vessel staggered under her cioud of canvas, and the masts and Jaws of the boom and gaff groaned and creek ed. Then the wind went whistling the rigging and the vessel went down to her rail. There was nothing to keep her righted, and the crew in the terrific gale could not get in the sail fast enough.

AH realized that there was no chance of saving the vessel, and each looked tor Ms safety. -No attention was paid to Moran and Klster, and when the schooner went on her beam ends and finally bottom upwards, there was a wild rush to the windward and a climbing upon the bottom of the vessel. The thrse men were never seen, and how they died no one can tell. Mallltz and a Spaniard were shut ape- in ttoe cabin, and in some way they managed to stand with their heads out of water. One of the ere climbed upon tbe hatch, which drifted away, and the next day was picked up at sea toy the coasting steamer Ynlu.

For five hours the half dozen men, wet, tired and hungry, clung to the vessels' hull, and waited for assistance. iThey believed all the others had been washed overboard hours before, and thry were amazed when they beard a steady knocking upon the planking of the boat's bull. The young American. Mallltz, and his Spanish companion, confined in the hull, had performed an almost marvelous act. They had climbed up the side of the vessel, and by bracing their feet against the contents of tbe hull, managed to keep their- beads above- the water level and breathe the small portion of air wb'cto had natural! been confined in the hull.

(Mallltz. with the courage of bio race. xept up an incessant Knoccing' upon tne boards, wHh a hope that assistance might come, and five hours later those noon the bottom of the tooat heard the sound and answered the desperate signal of distress.

The old year goes out leaving women's bodices dominated by looseness. For a time warnings that blouses would soon be common only brought new modifications of them, but there are indications now of a turn 'toward fitted garments. Dressmakers are showing such bodices and assuring, in dividual customers how becoming they will be to them, so before long it may be expected that they will be plentiful. Here te a type of the new models which looks severely snug after what we have been having for so long. It was in heliotrope cheviot, fastening at the Four rows of black, braid trimmed It around the bottom and' up the' front, thla trimming being repeated et the bottom of the bell skirt.

Braid also trimmed the sleeves and pointed collar. Sleeves like these will not be very plentiful until '08 Is well At present women are sticking stubbornly to elaborations for their shoulders. Wrinkled sleeves fitting to the very round of the shoulder and there relieved. by a puff are deemed very pretty for ball sleeves. The old-fashlond picturesque sleeve Is being revived, too, that one which represents the arm covered first by the loose white sleeve of the chemisette.

Over this sleeve is clasped a deep ouff that fits closely from the wrist to where tbe elbow needs play. Above the elbow another cuff Is fitted on that reaches closely to where the shoulder, rounds. These cuffs are made fit the material of the dress, and the un der sleeve Is pulled out about the hand below the forearm cuff and is puffed out at elbow and shoulder. The bodice, of the material of tbe cuffs. Is fitted over the chemisette, straps going over the.

shoulder to bold up the bodice. Sometimes in the "real" dresses, which may still be seen on the Italian peasant women who have not been, long- in this country, the upper sleeve cuff is cut at the top. into points that reach up towards the shoulder strap. Eyelets are made In the points and ribbons attach the upper cuff to the shoulder strap. So deftly is the upper cuff scooped out at the top that only a keen eye will realize that the upper part of sleeve and bodice are not permanently attached to each other.

i The Little Pier. Many a housekeeper has echoed the despairing cry of the poor cook who longed for a new animal. It Is difficult to supply a table with meats week after week, ringing the changes on poultry, beef, mutton, veal and pork, declares an. Evening Post writer. The Utter la not In general favor, and, because of this common dlsliksV It may be well to point out to the distraught caterer that a change from roast beef, or boiled or fricandean of veal is In the direction of the condemned pig; Thouga it need, not be the delicious morsel sung by Charles Lamb, It should oe zrom a young pig; men a leg of pork is a positive delicacy.

The meat la white and tender, resembling the breast of turkey without the dryness of that fowl. It should be cooked in a braising-pan, and into tne scorea rina snouia be thrust a liberal allowance 5 of finelr ehooned onion and powdered sage. Such a -dish, once- tried, itands every chanoei of frequent presentation thereafter on the family dinner table.

It seems only vesterdav that we greeted: the new year with amliea and flowers, as we watched by the midnight skies' the old.

How many were with us last year who watched the new year, dawn who are gone forever from- our: view? How many sheaves of dead days lie buried eo me where in the olden year?
