REPORTED A "BIG" ROBBERY Captain Was Entirely Right in Thus Describing the Theft of His lla, 1,000-Pound Anchor. Capt. Henry Vivian, of the Knlcnerbocker Ice company boat court, ">>' moored at the foot of E^at Ninth Uk< street, ran up to PatsoMron Loughltn. hai of the Union Market station at mid- hoi night and puffed out: Vl" "Officer, there's been a robbery?a lov big one?down on my boat." f?t Captain Vivian began to run back -ru; and the policeman followed. The cap- ton tain reached the boat first and brought Me up Loughlln t6 a halt when he pointed Mm to a broken cabin window. Then he '1 led the policeman to the stern, where eyt he pointed to a spot about eight feet In area. "There's where It was when 1 left F the boat this evening. And now it's pre gone." bui "For the love of Mike!" ejaculated no< the policeman. "What is it you're) I talking about?" frii "Don't you see?" demanded Captain wli Vivian. "It's the anchor that's gone rat ?and the cablo's gone with it." slu "Whom do you think got it?" asked Loughlln, after he had elicited the ha fact that It was a 1,000-pound anchor. Tli Captain Vivian then said that three rot members of the Dry Dock gang a few nights ago atempted to hold him sot up for a pint of beer. ^ "* 'I'm an English subject," I told \va them," said the captain, " 'and I re- doi fuBe to be held up. lie off,' and they went away. I think they've stolen It for revenge." 1 Loughlln reported to the station, so and Detective Snydecker was assign- eal ed to investigate the case. <j0( Snydecker went to the boat andithe looked over things. He believes a q diver could locate the anchor quicker nn, than a detective. He Is looking for the |)e; "gangsters" who he thinks pushed ? ? the anchor overboard.

At the present time he Is to be found at one of tho Porty-second ' street country clubs, relates the New pe York Telegraph. Klt It Beems that Mrs. Velller invited ij( several friends to dinner at her apart- ^ ment one recent Monday. She gave the invitation to her lord and master "" to mall tho previous Thursday. Mon- 101 day night arrived, but not one guest as put in an appearance. When the clock cei Btruck eight Mrs. Veiller decided to call up the guests to learn what had wl "happened to them. She was nmazed elj to learn that not one had received an i invitation. hn The truth dawned on her in a mo- gn ment and she began a cross-examina- or: tion of Mr. Veiller. He swore up aucy tin down that he had mailed them, but under tho third degree he broke down and admitted he had dropped them in i a box in Jersey City, wheryhe had ;ir been called on business tl^e morning she had given him the letters to mail.

(n Seasickness a Real Blessing. ni Good news is announced by the Austrian specialist. Dr. Rekkel-Fermor, se who declares that seasickness is a U( blessing, and that, so far from trying to avoid It, the holiday-maker should m welcome it. The doctor was led to N this discovery by the observation that patients sent on sea voyages got nrprlsingly well, despite the fact that they were continually seasick, and ought by theory to have been weak; ened. On the other hand, patients so who were not seasick benefited only to a normal extent. "It is quite plain," says the doctor, "that seasickness is an eBBenuai pari or me sea cure, reopie, it Is true, have dldd from sea- ja 'sickness, but they also have died from eating, exercise and other necessary j); and desirable things." Dr. Hekkel-Ferinor also declares m that the irritation of the vagus nerve j,. (it affects nearly all the organs), which accompanies all seasickness, > ' has an extraordlnam/'tonic effect on (j] the stomach, kldnejro and liver. y Orchards to Supply 8oda Water.
