lazaretto; the pumps were useless. Oct 18 all
the water casks had been smashed by the sea,
and the water in the main tank was spoiled by
sea water, and there being only about three gal
lons on board, all hands were put on an allow
ance of half a pint per day. Crew sustained
several injuries from decltload, and were laid
up Mule als > b-oame ill with fever, all of the
provisions were sp lied, and crew suffered terri
bly from thirst Get 22 brig Odorilla. Holland,
from Philadelphia for New York, supplied them
with water. A portion of the cargo is being dis
charged (deckload), repairs effected, and the
vessel will resume the voyage again with all
possible dispatch.

LOTTA A BRIDE.
The Actress Reported Married to a
Louisville Social Leader.
Louisville, Nov. L—A report was cir
culated Friday afternoon tft the effect that
Douglas Sherley had been wedded to
Miss Lojta Crabtree, known to the stage as
merely Lotto. Every possible effort was
mode to verify the story, but in vaiD. The
residence of Mr. Sherley was visited, but bis
mother was not at home, while for several
months Mr. Sherley has been in the east.
The story gained considerable credence on
account of the great friendship existing be
tween Mr. Sherley and the winning little
actress. Mr. Sherley always entertained
Lotto when she was in the city, and this
summer Mr. Sherley paid a visit to Lotta at
her delightful home. Mui Crabtree is not
acting this season, but is
LIVING WITH HER MOTHER
at Boston. Thomas H. Sherley, brother of
the supposed groom, stated that he did not
believe the story, but could not deny it
authoritatively. The alleged groom is the
Ward McAllister of Louisville, aud for
many years has wielded a social scepter
which none disputed. He is an au hor of
no mean pretenses and has au extensive ac
quaintance among literary people all over
the world. He is rioh and a hand
some man of about 41) years of age.
Notwithstanding bis popularity ia
society he lias long been considered a con
firmed bachelor, and match-making mam
mas and scheming daughters have made
siege to his heart and fortune in vain. HD
house is one of the handsomest in Louis
ville, and the quaiutness of its architecture
and furnishings makes it one of the show
places of Louisville. Although the rumor
19 not generally believed here, the story
gained wide circulation and caused a sensa
tion in the upper tea.
PALMEK’3 SEAT IN THE SENATE.
The Senator Surprised at the Way
Things Are Run at the Capitol.
W ASHiNGTON, Nov. I.—Senator Palmer,
while at the canitol yesterday looking in on
the supreme court and other familiar scenes,
ran against Senator Cullom, who took his
colleague to the Senate chamber, where he
some time ago was assigned to a seat on the
democratic side. It is a pretty good seat
for a newcomer, but it is not on the front
row. Senator Palmer made known bis
thanks, but was puzzled to know why such
pains had to be taken in advance.”
“1 thought,” ho remarked, that everybody
had on equal chance at the beginuing of the
session. ”
“Not at all,” replied Senator Cullom,
“it’s a question of time to get a good seat.
After a term or two a senator may succeed
in edging up pretty well to the front, but
not before then. If you know of anybody
who is going to die within a year or so you
can put in au application with the sergeant
at-arms for his seat when it becomes
vacant.”
“1 shouldn’t think a sick man would like
that,” said Senator Palmer.
“Piobably he wouldn’t,” replied Senator
Cullom, “but it bas been done.”
The senator’s statement may have been
a trifle exaggerated, yet there have been
cases where requests were filed for a de
ceased colleague’s desk before hD funeral
bad been held.

SLEEPING ON HIS OWN COFFIN.
Tit# Couch That a t arpenter Has Oc
cupied f r Twenty Years.
From Ike San Francisco Eximiner.
Elwell Chick will be buried this morning
at the Masonic cemetery, in a cedar coffin
that he made twenty years ago. Chick was
a carpenter at 1612 Hyde street. He was
bom at Westcasset. Me., in 181?. When ho
came to California no one appears to kno#,
nut it was certainly in very early pioneer
days. He lived D r sixteen years In the
wooden shanty on Hyde street, where ho
repaired furniture and did odd jobs.
“Chick w.as not a model citizen,” said a
neighborhood yesterday, “for the reason
that he frequently got drunk. When un
der the influence of liquor he was a worth
less vagabond. When sober he was a truth -
ful, industrious matt. But his sober pe
riods were not many.
”1 became acquainted with him in this
way. i noticed him sitting on his steps
one day. Ho up; eared despondent, and I
asked him what the trouble was.
’He told me that he had pawned all bis
tools for whisky and he had no money to
redeem them. 1 wont with him to Chief
Crowley and he got nis tools back.
“Chick was grateful for my interest in
him and asked ine into his home. It was
just as you see it now—dirty and bare of
comforts. There was a big box in the corner
with a niattress upon it.
“I asked bun if he had no thought of the
future and he laughed, rather sadly, saving
that he had prepared for all that.
“Then he told me his story. There was
no chance for his reformation, he said.
Drink had got the best of him. and he found
it impossible to leave liquor alone for mi re
than a month at a time. His wife and chil
dren would have nothing to do with him.
“Then he pullod tbo mattress off tho big
box and lifting the oover showed mo his
preparations for the future. In the pine
box was a handsomely finished coffin. He
had made it himself in 1870.
“Be told me about that time in a sober
interval ho had come to the conclusion
that nobody cared for him, and he feared
that his body when he died would be given
t>u medical college or buried In the pau
per’s field. 80 he made the coffin, bought a
lot in the Masonic cemetery, and put a rail
ing around it made with his own hands.
For t wenty years he had made his bed on
the top of the cedar casket he will bo car
ried to the grave in to-morrow. He wanted
hi dig the grave in the cemetery and keep
it open until he was dead, but they would
not let him do it.
“Some two years ago he was taken ill and
thought be was going to die. Then he hod
a plate made for the coffin, with bis name
and age, 79, cut on it. Tuesday night,
just before he died, he expressed dissatisfac
tion that his ags should be wrong on the
plate, and It was promised that tna figures
would be changed to 81.
“A brother in Mama left him 4700 not
long ago. The first use he made of this
money was to have a handsome suit aT
clothes made by a tailor. He never put
them on, but kept the suit wrapped up care
fully In his coffin. They will b 1 on his body
for the first time this morning."
DID THE AZ 'ECS BUILD IT?
An Elaborate Slone Roadway Un
earthed at Marseilles, 111.
Ottawa, 111., Nov. 1. —While workmen
were excavating for new gates just above
the Marseilles dam, eight mile, east of here,
yesterday morning they discovered a stone
roadway. Some fifty feet of a well-made
pavement of slabs was uncovered, each
stone being some twelve feet long, from one
to three feet wide and over two inches in
thickness, with a break here and there
filled in with cobblestones, which wore also
laid in regular courses.
Ti.e roadway, so far as uncovered. Is
almost perfect. It is of tho uniform width
of about twelve feet, and is laid upon a
foundation of gravel and broken sandstone.
The depth at which it appears is from four
to six feet. It is thought to have been built
by the Aztecs or Tezcunons, who were
driven from this region by the Indiana
