Pall Mall Qa zclte. AN OLD ALBATROSS. The Ancient Pru-Hlrtl Kcrnntl.Y Captured by the Mate of n Urltlih Ship. The following interesting facts were lately communicated by Captain Heard of tho Hritit-h ship Duchess of Argyle: "When rounding tho Horn in January la.'t, in latitude i'i dcg. 10 mm. south and 50 dog. 8 min. west, an immens albatross was noticed following tho ship and feeding on tho rofuso thrown over board. Ono day as it hovorcd dircctlj over tho poop I noticed a circular ofc jeet, about tho size of a silver tlollw, hang to the bird's neck. I immediatclv gave orders to have tho bird cau&ht, il possible. My first mato, Mr. Baird, who is very handy in such matters, pro cured n small, lint pieco of board, on whicli ho fastened a largo hook baited with a pieco of pork; to this lio attached a stout fishing-lino nnd let it drift astern. Ho caught several other nlba trosscs with this contrivance, but the ono I particularly wanted to capture fought very shy of this tempting lure. Tli ) third dap, howovor, ho was hooked firmly by tho beak, and nftor a desperato ftrugglo hoisted on board. I then d'snovercd that tho object I had hccn hanging from tho bird's neck was a Dross pocket-compass case, fastened to tho bird by means of three strands of thick copper wire. Two of tho wiros had worn through, and tho third was all but gone. After somo trouble as thoro was a quar ter of an inch of verdigris, I succeeded in forcing open tiio lid, and insido found a carefully wrapped up pioee of paper, on which was written, in much faded ink. tho following: "Caught May 1, 18W, in latitude S3 dog. U min. south, 40 dog. 14 min. west, by Ambrose Cocliarn, of American ship Columbus.' I thou prooured a plated Inbal off a wlno decanter with my ship's namo on it, and got tho car penter to fasten it around tho bird's neck, with my name, tho dato of cap ture tho lat'tude, and also tho facts of tho provious capturo by tho captain of tho Columbus, deeply out into tho metal. I then let tho albatross go. Bo foro doing so wo moasurod tho wings and founu thorn to bo twolvo foot two inches from tip to tip. Tho bird was grayish whito in color, witli a reddish brown head.' To judgo from thoabovo tho albatross must bo a very long-lived bird, as it was probably at least four or fivo years old when caught by Captain Cochnrn, which would mako It lifty-ono years old when last caught Iliogo Xcws.

Wo wish thoin joy of It. Lot us, howovor, ask thorn a fow questions.

I suppose there Is no reason that a reporter should ot experience tho same yearning. But his chances of earning a subslstenoy by tho way nre so much loss that h s ap pcarauco In tho rolo of a gypsy Is moro to bo wondered at. At any rato, thoro is quite a consid erable number of theso vagabonds of tho press now at largo. I mot ono of thorn, a well-known man on the Phila delphia Pros a couple of years ngo, in Cleveland. I was breakfasting between trains nt the ilopot early In the morn ing. Ho enme in, dirty and shabby, but he paid for his breakfast, and ate a lusty one, you may bo bound. He was on his way from Chicago to Buvaln, returning from a tramp that hud led him ns far west as Louis ville. Ho had conio in on a fro'ght train, and come drovers ho had made friends witli wore going to help him east In tlrcir caboose. The man, when I first heard of him, was editing a paper iu Western Pennsylvania, and was report ed to bo S'.'ttlod'and doing well. Thoro used to bo a droll, dry genius about Newspaper Row who worked for tho Sunday papers and wrote fuuny stories that were really funny to road. Ho disappeared suddonly, and overy ono thought him doad. A long whllo afterward, being in Haltimore, 1 enmo across a paper published on tiio Eastern slioro that bore ills name as proprietor. I learned that ho had started on a stroll south, had drifted into Dover on foot, met nn old friend who possessed somo means, aud got him to set up a paper for him. Thoy woro doing woll at tho time I wrlto of, but a fow months later he did not report for duty ono morning. Ho sent a noto to his friend saving that he was going West By foot and rail lie ponetrnted ns fur as Kansas. Thoro I lost track of him, noting as sub-editor on a paper in Atchison. He is probnbly well on his wny around tho world by this time. Thero recently returned to New York a pressman whom overy old timer on tho Row knows. Ho was re garded fiftocn years ago as ono of tho mast ablo reportors In tho city. Ho lias worked, and worked among tho best, on all tho great papers, and done soma of tho brightest nnd cleverest reportorial work that has f;ot into print in tho metropolitan dai ies. But ho is a confirmed rover, and can nover bo counted on from day to day. Ho makos periodical disappear ances from Now York, and after months is hoard of as being connected with some out-of-town paper. Ho always gets good borths. for his ability con mauds respect and has a tangible value. Formerly tie did not go further nway than Philadelphia. Baltimore, Albany or Hartford. Then ho began to drift to such distances as Boston and Pitts burgh. Then his operations extended to Chicago, St. Louis and into Miuue tota and Dakota. When I shook hands with him tho other day at tho post-olllce he was f rosii from Donvor. I onco asked this man why ho delib erately sacrificed his opportunities us ho did, and broko away from connections ho could oasily havo made permanently profitable. "I can't help it," ho re plied; "I got so infernally tired of New York that I havo to got out." "Then why don't vou stay out when you get a good thing?" "Because I get so tired of being away," said ho, "that I havo to come bock." Hero you havo opitomized tho creed of tho tramps of journalism. iV. Y. Jour nalist. THUNDER-STORMS. Their Steady Increune lu Gcrmuny Uoth In Frequency nnd Severity. I From certain meteorological statistics recently published in Germany, wo learn that thundor-storms in that coun try have, during tho last thirty years, boon steadily increasing both in fre quency and 6ovcrit3'. Tho number of deaths per annum from lightning has Increased in a far greater ratio than that ot tho lucrcaso of population, hi tlio present state of our knowledge of tho whole subject of atmospheric elec trioity, tlio cause of tho phenomena of thunder-storms is confessedly obociire. It is, howovor, very posslblo that some light would bo thrown upon tho quos lion by a comparative study of tho fre quency nnd soverity of storms during ti longtlioned period and over a wide geo graphical area. Tho Gorman savants incllno to tho opinion that tho increase is to bo at tributed to tlio enormously increased production of snioko and steam which has taken placo during tho last thrco decades. But although wo may admit tills to bo to some extent a probable vera causa, yet, whon wo consldor the very local character of thunder-storms, wo should naturally oxpectto find that it would follow that tho neighborhoods of lnrgo cities, and especially of manu facturing districts would sutler tho most sovorely. But tho statistics refarrod to show distinctly that tho vory rovorso is tho case. The number of storms at tended by fatal results from lightning is far iargor in tho agricultural districts than in tho towns. Upon tho other hand, wo ought to tako Into considera tion tho protective acton of lightning conductors, with which tho promlnont buildings in tho towns of Germany aro well providod.

How They Alur He Used to Ktirlch the Suit of the 1 urin. That pigs are not mado moro profit ablo on tho farm is not so much tho fault of the p'gs us tlio owner. Shut up in tho barn-yard, or in somo close pen or yard, tho pig is expensive, for it must bo fed all it will eat, and it must bj waited on. As tinio is money, tlio ac count runs up, and 'then tho food is all more or less costly. Theso facts form the basis for the licad of this short ex hortation. If farmers would calculate, moro es pecially about tho pigs, they would havo u great deal less troublo and mora monoy. They forget that pigs will eat grass, aye, aro fond of it, anil actually yearn for it. When only llireo weeks old, thuv will cat it, and it does them good. Now tiio thing is to have a place to turn the p'gs to cat tho gras- Wlwro shall this ba? Anywhere, providod there is a fenca to keep tiicin in. What shall tho fence be? Any thing, if it h tight. Pigs don't jump thoy crawl through. Height is not the question, but tightness. A stone wall is good, so is n board fence; ono mado of two boards and two tw'sted wiros is capital; nil wiros w'll do, but not more than four inches apart, with posts every six feet; rails aro good if thoro aro no holes; uu old; broken down wall will do leveled up aud a barbed wire Ft rot cited along the top, just where tho hog's head would conio if ho tried to climb over it.

No man can afford to keep pigs beyond the extent of slops, when shut up In a barn yard or a close pen; but any man can afford to keop pigs, if he will uso the means ho may, mid at the tamo time his enterprise may cause Ids pigs to ba factors for incroascd profit.

A number of New York journnlists havo married rich wives and have en joyed, nnd still enjoy, tho freedom and oaso which their vastly Improved olr cumstancos allow. They have not nil been salaried, either. Not a fow aro among tlio most prosperous of their call ing, so that It may bo reasonably sup posed that thoy woro drawn to their partners by other .than monetary con siderations. Tho most conspicuous of theso Is Whltelaw Held, whoso wife is tho only daughter of D. O. Mills, esti mated to bu worth anywhere between 316,000,000 nnd 825,000,000. Tho an tecedents of tho millionaire woro hum ble. Ho bogan, It Is said, bv keeping a small tavern In one of the Westchester towns; 'went to California as an argo naut, nnd by energ', enterprise and good luck ma lu a great fortune. His daughter, according to her Intimates, is a very sensible, kind-hearted, estimable young woman, and sho and her husband nro reputed to bo devoted to one an other. Her influence on him is described ns hnving boon oxccllent, which is for tunate, sinco ho became a Benedict late In llfo, when one's ways and habits arc ordinarily fixed. As the editor of tho Tribune was thought to havo property valued at 8500,000 before marriage, ho should not be suspected of more fortune-hunting. But hu had lifiy-ono shares of tho nowspapor stock mort gaged, as is generally believed, to Jay Gould, which ho could not release. His wife received 81,000,- 000 from her father as her wed ding portion, nnd sho as tho story goes, most generously gave her licgo half of it to pay off that claim. Ho must have deeply appreciated tho gift, for it placed him in an independent position, wiiicii no had not for years enjoyed. The bulk of tho Tribune huyuh are now owned by tho Roids and fclho Millses, so that tho nowspapor is strictly hold by tno two families. WbUtftiw Reid, in his days ot pover ty and struggle, was exceedingly indus trious ono of tlio hardest workers in Washington, when he was correspond ent of tho Cincinnati Gw.clte. And ho was also very capable and won his way to distinction. Since lie has grown very rich ho takes things leisurely, although ho still looks sharply after tho Tribune's Interests in the business and editorial departments. Ho considers himself pub lisher as well as editor, and ho is cred ited with being an excellent financial mannger. Ho is considered practical to his lingor tips. Of Scotch extraction, ho understands tho worth of money as well as when ho could earn only ?15 or S20 n week. No man, it is said, relishes moro what money will purchaso or has a greater aunuration lor monoy kings. Ho is not vory robust; ho conies of fra gilo stock, nnd his present wealth enables him to save himself. When in town ho has lately spent his summers at Millbray, Ids father-in-law's lino es tate near Alemada, Cal. ho gives about four hours a day to tho olllc3 and six or soven to society, for which hu has a woakness shared bv fow members of his profession. Ho derives much pleas ure, I am told, from tho fact that D. O, Mills is likely to bo mentioned as White law Hold's father-in-law than ho is to bo mentioned as D. O. Mills' son-in-law.
