Ghieh had broken loose increased their speed as they approached the second beg- ege section, and probably had run a mile tore they struck it. The engineer 0! the rear section saw the cars approaching, but only had time to stop his train before it struck him. The brekeman on the loose cars tried to put on the brakes, but they had difficulty in running Irom car to car on account of the weggons, which impeded their progress. Had the engineer of the rear section only had a moment’s more time he could have backed his train and avoided the calamity, but it was too late, and the care struck his engine with tremendous toxca, throwing the three sleepers from the track and smashing them beyond recognition. More than a hundred men were buried in the debrin. The scene can hardly be described. The night wee' tearfully dark and the groans ol the men were appalling. The people in the rear section at once began the work of removing the men from the wreck. Five Were found dead, and many others wounded and bleeding. The work of re. moving the men from the debris was an agonizing task. Amen alive and uninjured was taken from beneath the bodies 0: two dead men. Ten of the injured can hardly recover.

It was an awful scene. and the physicians who arrived at the time said they were almost unnerved at the sight and in the presence of so much human snfier- ing, physical and mental. The injured were found lying in all poitions. Some of them were so far away from the battery that it seemed impossible that they could have been struck by the explosion. The large number of boys hurt is accounted for by the fact that they were employed to handle the hoop iron which was rolled in the milinear- est the boilers. Those most seriously in- jured were taken to the hospital, while the others were removed to their homes. A HORNE OF DESOLATION. The interior of the finishing mill pre sented a terrible sight of desolation after the accident. Things were badly wrecked. The boilersâ€"â€"six in numberâ€"form a battery. which is located in the extreme southwest corner of the mills. The mud-drum runs lengthwise under all six boilers. It was the end of this which blew out with such fearfultorce as to scatter destruction on all sides. All the boilers were unseated. Two of them were tilted back. and some of them were on end. In the rear the whole wall of masonry was moved outward. A very remarkable feature was the jam~ ming of the mud-drum's head against one of the engines. This engine was situated a few yards north of the boilers. The burst iron was below directly against the cylinder head of the engine, smashing it to pieces and blowing the whole head inward. From this the steam rushed out with a loud hissing sound. Large stacks of hoop-iron were blown all over the mill, machines were upset, rolls turned over, and Ill one instance a wheel- barrow was trundled through a door. The iron machines and benches were all thrown together in inextricable masses, under which several of the men were buried. PgEVIOUS AGGTDENTS- Twice before accidents of this nature have occurred at the mill. The first one took place five years ago, but no one was killed. The second one happened only eighteen months ago, and although several persons were scolded no one was fatally hurt. On the last occasion two men were arrested for tampering with the boilers. but there was no proof on which to convict them. This morning’s_ explosion was caused by mud eating through the covering of the mud-drum. Pieces of the drum were picked up which were not more than the thirty-second part of an inch in thick- ness.

Yesterday she gave birth to an illegitimate” child, and in order to get rid of the fruit of her own folly and wickedness placed the child in a cooking stove this morning and baked it to death. The police were notified of the dreadful affair and arrested the woman. She is thought to be insane. The woman gives the following particulars regarding her guilt: The child was not born alive, and in order to conceal her shame she rose from her bed, made her way to the kitchen. which is the adjoining room. kindled a fire and put the body or the child into the stove to consume it. She went about the house in the afternoon as usual, but in the even- ings. woman came in and recognizing a peculiar odor of some burning substance. looked into the stove.

Ushers were engaged and the bride’s trousseau was procured, which was said to be of the most elegant descrip- tion. The local papers published the aflair as to come ofi on October 7th. The wedding dress was to be trimmed with some rare old lace, a present from Mr. Pruyn. He also presented her with costly diamonds, as became the gift of a young man the reputed possessor of a clear million in his own right. Rev. Dr. Harwood is said to have been much opposed to a renewal of the engagement; but young Pruyn was a persistent suitor, and the family of the young lady were constrained to yield a reluctant consent.

Sornrmr. of Yale, who was the most intimate lnend of Miss Honors, received a letter from her in which ‘ she stated that she was married yesterday in Jersey City by the Rev. Frederick E.

Miss Harwood also sent her marriage certificate to her father and a copy to her betrothed in Albany, together with the announce- ment that she was to sail for Europe on the Werra.

Over two hundred invitations had been sent to the various large cities in New York Shake, and wherever the acquaintances of the engaged couple resided. There had been many valuable presents sent to the reei- dance of Dr. Harwood by the friends of the young people. Altogether the afieir has been a sort of society thunderbolt. About a year ago or more Miss Harwood became engaged to Mr. Pruyn. a member of the wealthy and distinguished Albany ‘Iamily. The young lady received many congratulations on account of the brilliant match which it was supposed she was to make and the high social position that she would enjoy. Boon afterward, however, the match was broken 01!, and Miss Honora, accompanied by her sister Alida, left on a steamer for England to visit friends of her father‘s family. Mr. Prnyn followed on the next steamer, and soon afterward it was announced that a reconciliation had taken place and that the marriage date had been fixed for October 7 th, 1885.

The young lady to whom he was engaged to be mar- ried and whbm he expected to occupy his new home with him as his wife was named Reed, and lived upon‘the opposite side of the Ohio, on the hills near Aurora. At that time Aurora was but a emall place, and much of the surrounding country, which is now divided up into beautiful farms, was covered with the dense original forest. Miss Reed was a very pretty young lady, though she would not be considered beautiful, and was possessed of more than ordinary intelligence for those times. highly respected and popular, and much admired in the community, and her many friends, as well as those of her future husband, predicted that their married life would be very happy. In due time the marriage took place at the home of the young bride, and after the ceremony their friends accom- panied the young couple to the river, and West rowed his wife over to the newly- built and furnished home, reaching there Just at dark. Their friends watched them from the opposite shore till they entered the house. and that was the last time either was seen alive. Late the following morn- ing relatives called, and failing to receive any reply to their repeated knockings upon the door opened it and entered the house. Upon the bed in her night-clothes lay the bride of a few short hours, cold in death, her face and throat showing that she had been strangled or smothered to death. and the furniture in the room gave proof by its disarranged condition that a terrible struggle had taken place in the chamber of death. The husband could not be found, and has never been seen or heard of. Whether he killed his wife and fled has never been known. but his relatives and friends asserted most positively that that could not have been the case, as there was no motive for such a dead. The most reasonable theory is that some third person or persons murdered them both, the murderers having some grudge against them, and then either con- cealed the husband's body in the vicinity or carried it down with his clothing andI with rocks to hold them down, sunk them in the river. Why the Wife's body was not similarly disposed of, some say, is because the murderers wished to leave it in the room, and the husband’s body and clothes not being found. the natural inference would be that he had murdered her and had fled the country, the perpetrators of the double murder taking this plan to divert suspicion from themselves. But be that asit may. and let whichever story told Grim.

"‘L' . , .ue house was intended to i». hm hm... hnmn in Boone County, Kentucky, just below Petersburg, on the bank of the Ohio. and almost opposite the rolling-mill at Aurora, Ind., stands a deserted, vacant frame dwelling. around which cluster various stories of ghosts, spooks and hob-goblins. It is known tar and wide as the haunted house, or. as the darkies in the neighbor- hood say, “ the hanted house," and all the money in Boone county would not induce a darkey who has grown up in that vicinity. or who has been there long enough to hear some of the stories concerning it, to enter the house after night. and some of them will not cross the threshold alone even in the daytime. They swear by Moses, Ham and all the prophets that the house is " hunted; ” that strange noises have been i heard there at night; that a woman's screams and dying groans have floated out from the house upon the night air ; that something in white has appeared at the Windows. and mysterious lights have floated and danced about in the old rookery tor years past. In their imaginations they have peopled the old house with mysteri- ous midnight ghostly beings, flitting about from room to room, dancing with noiseless feet over the barren, rotten floors during the dark and silent hours of night, and vanishing at the approach of dawn. So many stories have been told about the house that steamboat pilots, when their boats are passing at night. watch it. as though expecting every minute to seea light flash from some of the windows; sturdy, weather-beaten and sun-bronxed fishermen, while passing in their skifls, look upon it and talk about it as a “ hanted" place, and the boys and girls from Aurora, while rowing tor pleasure upon the river in the summer moonlight evenings, cease their singing and are inclined to pull away irom the Kentucky shore when approach- ing the place, seeming to realize that there is something which repels them from, rather than invites them in, that direction. This uninviting, shunned and mysterious house is a frame, two storeys high, with two rooms below and two above. It stands above the reach of floods, some fifty feet back irom the high bluff bank. The fence which once surrounded it has long since fallen down, and the yard is full of high, rank weeds and creeping vines, where snakes and lizards live unmolested. The house is old and dilapidated, the win- dows are broken in, the weather-board decayed and dropping from the frame in many places, the doors either gone or hang-t 4 ing loose upon their broken and rusty hinges, the root full of holes, letting in both the sunshine and the rain, the lower floor all rotten and crumbling away upon the ground. and the sides and ceilings of the rooms, both above and below, presenting a patchwork of rent and cracked plastering and barren lath. In the evening hundde nf awailnws fly nut nf 172:: old brick chimney, circle around: and settle back into the dark funnel ; bats fly in and out of the broken windows and half- open doors, and later in the night is heard the owl’s dismal boot from her perch upon the root. The whole premises present a scene of utter ruinl decay and desolation, and as one looks upon it, it he is at all inclined to believe in spooks, he can’t help saying that here is their home, where they can hold their ghostly midnight carnivals undisturbed, for no one will care to invade such a gloomy abode.

He knows that bees never wander very iar from ‘home, seldom more than two miles; and he also knows that when a bee is laden with honey it makes. as nearly as possihle, a straight line for home. fill that is neces- sary, then, is to find a lee that is well laden and follow it.‘ But that is more easily said than done. Any boy who has tried to [allow the big and gay-colored bumble-bee to its nest knows how great atask it is. But that is a mere trifle to following the sober little honey-bee, which can be lost, like a dream, against a gray-colored hill side. In order to be followed, the bee must have a distinguishing mark that can be easily seen, and with such a badge the Australian provides it. He gums a small tuit of white cotton to the bee's hack, and thus follows it With comparative ease. But the question now comes up, how is the cotton to be placed upon the bee’s back? The gum is quickly foundâ€"it is on almost any tree; the cotton grows right at hand. The bee, too, is found in almost any sweet flower, buried head first in the dusty pollen. drink- ing in the nectar and showing quite plainly whether its honey-sue is full or empty. It moves a little in its eager haste to secure the delicious liquid, but perhaps a quick dab will fasten the cotton on its back. Do nottry it. As the little boy told his mother, the has is a very " quick kicker." Watch the Australisn~and he a very stupid fellow, too, in most things. He fills his mouth with water, has his snowy tuft of cotton ready summed, finds his bee, gently drenches it with water spurted from his mouth, picks it up while it is still indig- nantly shaking itself free from the water which clogs its wings, and with a dcxterons touch he affixes in an instant the tell-tale cotton.

A New York correspondent of the Chicago Inter-Ocean tells the following story: A hammock hung in the rear veranda of a suburban residence. One end was considerably higher than the other. The occupant of the graceful couch, at the beginning of my visit, was the eldest daughter at the family. a round and ‘roseate creature whom I had previously deemed rather too material for unqualified admiration ; butshe now looked positively beautiful as she lay picturesquer disposed, with her head lying on one bent arm at the higher end of the hammock and her feet dangling barely visible over the side at .the lower portion. Pretty soon her hall-sister took possession of the hammock, but' in a reversed position, her head being below the level of her heels. Strange to say. she also appeared to better advantage than usual. The yellow, bilious pallor com- monly hurting her complexion was some- . what abated by a faint tinge of pink. and I marvelled much. Then I a'sked wherein lay the magic of that hammock. " I don’t Wish to enchant you,” was the reply, " and will tell you all about. You notice that the hammock is hung with one end up and the other down. That's not done for comfort, except such as arises in a girl from the consciousness that she is prettier than usual. My sister is fat and lull blooded. She lies with her face elevated, so that the blood runs out of her cheeks, and for a time her complexion is just about the right thing. I'm too bloodless in the visage, you know, and so I pose in the hammock t’other end to, making the blood settle into my face instead of drain out o! itâ€"indueing mild vertigol you understand â€"and thus produce a rosiness that I can't hope for when standing or sitting.” Didn’t Understand the Signal.

The rich green mold which lovers of Boquetort cheese enjoy is called “Psicillum glaucum," and is made srtificiallv. Raque- tort is made from sheep’s milk, and the interesting vegetation is secured by making bread or wheat, barley flour and vinegar. allowing it to get moldy, and sprinkling s few of the moldiest crumbs in the curd that is to become cheese. In the apartments in which Roquetort is prepared “ the phen- omenon”, i.e.,the fungusâ€""is introduced as far as possible."

Gauge, speaking at Brie tol the other night, said he beiieved in careful preparation at home of sermons for the Sunday instead of " gadding about from house to house visiting." In his early career he was urgently requested by a deacon to visit a member of the congrega- tion who was very ill, and it was suggested that he should call at 11 o’clock in the morning. He did so, and found the poor woman very much better, but greatly put out at his visit, as she had her hair in curl paper, her sleeves tucked up to her elbows. and was doing a bit of household sweeping and dusting. He begged her not to mind him, as he was “ used to that sort of thing." He selectedaehair and knelt down : she selected another, and he began the prayer. He heard the door open once ; he heard it opened a second time. He concluded an earnest prayer on the poor woman’s behalf, and on looking roundâ€"lo l a perfect trans- formation. While he was praying she had slipped up to her bed-room, washed her hands and face, curled her hair, changed her attireâ€"and there she was, ' her very best silk. fittingly prepared to eceive company, while he had been praying among the empty chairs.â€"Bristal Mercury and Daily Post. __‘___--_. meqi mm. ‘ engugh.

I determined to try the experiment. writes a correspondent of the San Francisco Chronicle. There are three bathing places about ten miles from the city. reached after a ride over a strip of desert country onanarrow-gauge road. The location is certainly a charming one, and well worthy a visit. As a background a high promontory of the Oquirrh range jute upward but a few hundred test from the shore. while a long chain of the Wasatch range bounds the southern shore in a semi- circular shape, fading away in the west until the distant peaks are blended with the shadows of the crags o! Antelope Island, which rears aloit its jagged iaoe directly in front. Scarce a ripple dis- turbs the smooth surface of dark green water. which stretches away as far as the eye can see. The places selected for bathing have a bottom of soft. white sand, the boundaries at the shallow water being marked by lines of rope, and extending out two hundred to three hun- dred feet. It is a strange sight to watch several hundred people taking asea“bath ud coming out with hair as dry as when they entered. To swallow a quantity of the water is to invite strangulation. but the head can safely be ducked under water. provided the mouth and eyes are kept tightly closed. However, very few seem inclined to take these chances. and so the number that dive under are easily counted, but they rove that the dan era are over- estimate . and that the terri le effects of a thorough immersion are the result ota baseless' superstition and have no exist- ence in tact. A severe burning results from getting the water into the eyes. but ire uent repetition accustoms the bother to t e strength of the saline solution, and the few who indulge in a genuine plunge do so with the utmost imnunitv.

Whatever is worth doing at all is worth dojyg we!1.__ " What value do dogs reach ?" Oh. they are worth all the way up from $50 to $5.000. There are very few that will bring the latter figure. however. A great deal of the value put upon a dog of fine pedi ree is merely imaginary. The ancestors o the animals are supposed to impart their worth to him. Our dog shows do a great deal to give dogs of no pedigree a chance to get a reputation and set a value upon themselves. There will be some fine Pittsburg unknowns put up at the coming bench exhibition here." “ Dogs are as difierent in their ways as men. Some you can trust and rely upon, and they will never try to get out of what they know they ahould do; others require close watching. or they will always be in mischief. Yes. we have some the dogs here. You can’t always tell which ones they are by their appearance. Those that at a casual glance present the most repulsive appearance are frequently the most valu- able. The fine animals are not always those that have long pedigrees treasured up by their masters. I have had a dog here that is the most useful. intelligent and powerful animal under my care, and yet he had no pedigree recorded.” There is a training school for dogs in Pittsburg. says the Dispatch. A great many of the canine family are always there in training. There are dogs of all sizes, ages and dispositions. Some are of a blooded race. while other are the common, every day curs men in every alley and by-way o! the city. They are taught to do all the tricks that appear clever when manifested by their class. but the chief subject of instruction is breaking to wild game. They are taken out to the woods near by. and then the game is furnished by the trainer, and they are given an insight into all the little tricks of the profession by an old and experienced dog. Almost any one could do; the work done by the trainer it he had the same opportunities and as great a knowledge or the character of dogs.
