Raleigh, N.C., February 24."A ape

rasing. The incident of the day was
the last heat in the first race, when
the judges gave ~Tyrolese first place
over Kitty B., stating that Kitty Be
and Bird Eye fouled ~Tyzoless. The
decision was freely hissed. Hewiti, own-
er of Kitty B., entered protest against
the decision and demanded the purse
and new judges for tomorrow.
First heat in 2:25 class, one mile,
resulted as follows: Kitty B. first, Bird
Kye second, Myrtle Reak third, Beron
Wood fourth, Tyrolese fifth.

~ Was Mourned as Dead. co
Jaues ©. Brown, a sailor 60 years
old, who had been given up for dead,
has just returned to his family in Lynn,
- Mazss., after an absence of pine years.
~ Brown shipped from Boston in Novem-
per, 1887, in the bark Clyde. The
vessel ;was capsized? by a storm in
. Madagascar harbor. ; The crew were
"pescued .and returned to Madagascar,
. whereT Brown shipped for Mauritius.
| There he was stricken with fever and
lay four m nths between life and death.
Qn recovering he made two voyages
. between Mauritius and Melbourne.
~The bark in which he .shipped, being
short handed, stopped at the Solomon
Islands for men, but got none, and left
hastily, because the captain feared
the natives. Brown was accidently left
behind, and for four years he lived
with the savages. Ot the experience
he says:
_ oImagine yourself in a menagerie,
withT 10,000 wild animals running
-madly about, each one séemingly
3 thinking of swallowing you whule, and
you may. have a taint idea of my first
experience. After awhile I made my
may friends among the natives.�
, Brown was rescued by the bark
Florence Elliott and taken to Sidney,
whence he worked his way to Mel-
bourne: !nally he wrote to his wife,
a idTon receipt of an answer he shipped
aboard the Germanic for home."New
York Sun.
