MARINE INTELLIGENCE.
Matters of Interest to Shipping Men
Generally.
Within a short time It is expected a large
number of vessels will be docked in the
slips of the Seaboard Air Line Railroad.
The shifting of the schooner Humarock to
slip No. 2 of the terminals will be the
first vessel docked there to load lumber.
Ample arrangements have been made for
the loading of lumber on the other side,
and the chances are the next few weeks
will witness several vessels being docked
there to take on cargo.
The schooner C. C. Wehrum, which ar
rived at Port Royal yesterday, will sail
from that port for Savannah to load lum
ber. While bound in to Port Royal the
Wehrum was spoken by the Savannah tug
Cambria.
'tfie Seaboard's lighter at the foot of
Bull street is being covered. It will be
converted into a waiting station for pass
engers bound for the other side, and will
be provided with seats.
The Bluffton and Savannah steamer Do
retta was hauled off the marine railway
yesterday. She was docked at the toot
of Whitaker street, where repairs will
be made to her bollerr

NOT ON SPEAKING TERMS,
People Who Have Lived Together for
Years Without Conversing.
From the Chicago Record.
The other day I heard of a man of the
name of George Gould living at New Ro
chelle, N. Y., whose wife has lived In the
same house and sat nt the same table
with him without speaking to him for
more than twenty years. They were mar
ried In 1863 and have four children, who
are grown and three of them are married.
About twenty years ago husband and wife
quarreled, and the latter, becoming angry
at one of his remarks, declnred that she
would never apeak to him again until he
apologized. He Is too stubborn to apolo
gize, and she huso become accustomed to
silence. They sleep and eat and sit to
gether like other husbands and wives.
They drive to town tn the same buggy,
occupy the same pew at church; she
mends his stockings, sews the buttons on
his shirts and fulfills all the other wifely
duties In the ordinary commonplace way,
except that of conversation, and the hus
band has become accustomed to the situ
ation by long experience. He talks to
her without reserve, but when 14 1? nec
essary for her to communicate with him
she does so through her daughter, who
lives with them and plays the port of a
telephone for the old lady.
And yet people eay that a woman can
not hold her tongue.
There Is another and a Rlmllar case at
Vestal, Broome county, New York, where
two brothers and two sister* named
Glenn, all unmarried, live together under
the same roof, and one of the brothers,
John Glenn, has not spoken to the rest
of the family for fourteen years. He is
65 years old, a bachelor, and has always
lived at home with his brothers and sla
ters. In 1886 their father brought from
town two suits of clothes for the two
brothers, and William, the elder, was al
lowed the first pick. John became In
dignant at this partiality and declared
that he would never speuk to them again.
He has kept his word.
I have been told also of two other
brothers. John and George O’Brien, who
have lived for sixteen years In the same
house on Beaver Island, near Harbor
Springs, Mich., sleeping In tbe same bed,
eating at the same table and working In
the same cooper shop without exchanging
a word. When they were boys they quar
reled over pome trifling incident and vow
ed they would never speak to each other
again. Since then they have kept their
vow, although they are otherwise frledly.
Down near Batem. Mass., are two old
maid sisters of the name of Witherspoon,
who quarreled over the seats they should
occupy at tho funeral of their mother.
The older claimed the privilege of sitting
next to the coffin. The younger assent

chair around to the other side, so that she
