‘‘Grog Boars’ are sent among the British fishermen off the coasts of York and Cleveland by enterprising Holianders. These boats are fitted out like English barrooms, with all the modern improvements, including barmaids, so that the sailors and fishermen can go on long sprees without the trouble of going ashore. These grog boats are a nuisance. They are demoralizing the toilers of the sea.

A Novel Shipment of Oysters.

A Moncton Times correspondent writes from Point du Chene under date of Oct. 24:

A barrel of oysters was forwarded from here to-day to Hamburg, Prussia, via New York, with the following card :

From the Inspector of Fisheries for Province of P. E. Island, Canada : This barrel Canadian oysters is sent as a test whether they can be shipped and arrive at a German port alive and in good condition for breeding and for food. If not immediately claimed on arrival of steamship at Hamburg, will the agent of the Line please open the barrel and test if they are alive and sound—if spoiled destroy them, but if alive and in good condition forward at ouce to Herr Von Bunsea, or to the Hon. Commission for Scientific Exploration of

Another “Successful Islander.”

The Eik Mountain Pilot of Crested Butt. Colorado, reports that one M. A. McLeod skipped out last Satarday with all the mopey he could collect and forgot to pay his bills. This is the worst case of mis- placed confidence we have heard of lately. It seems he had acontract on the Cascade Mountain Mining Company’s mines, and he also had a contract to deliver so many cords of wood to the Sylvanite Mine. He came to town on Friday and drew about $800 from each company, which he was en- titled to, for the purpose of paying the men in his employ, On Saturday morning search was made for him but he could not be found. The $1,600 and himself had borh left the town, leaving the men that had been to work for him all summer without a dollar, Some of the men he owed from $50 to $150, and the wrath of vengeance would have been visited vpon Mr. McLeod if they had caught him. Every means was taken to intercept him in his flight, bat as yet he has not been caught. The men have the sympathy of the public, as they are all poor, hard work- ing men, and the severest punishment would be too good for this miscreant should he be caught.
