Nut island, a picturesque little
place situated in Qulnoy bay, Mans.,
about 11 milee from Boston, is moat,
ly inhabited by fishermen. It might
be very appropriately called Wreck-
ar's island, for there numbers of the
condemned veeeels bought by Boston
)unk dealers are burned, and some
famous old ships, with histories,
have been broken up to the last rib
on its shore. It was here that the
Galena, in which General Grant
went round the world, was burned
after being condemned and sold,
and the famous old men-of-war Ni-
agara, Brooklyn and Wyoming were
also burned on the island.
There are still parts of the hulls
of the Galena, Brooklyn and Niagara
lying here and there about the is-
land, up from high water mark.

All eyes were turned toward New

Seth Low was second in the race.

The George ticket cut a very sorry

exception of the slightly sloping
beach on the southern shore, where
the wreckers and lobster fishermen
have made their headquirtera, the
island is merely a high hill of no
great area. It is in a sheltered spot
on the coast and commands a beau-

outlying shores. The island has
been for many years the resort of
harbor picnic parties and of young
men who spend a week or two dur-
ing the summer camping out by the
sea. —Exchange.
