DWELLING DAMAGED BY THE EXPLOSION OF
A SHELL.-During the practice firing from the
mortar schooner yesterday afternoon, one of
the l3.nch shells exploded prematurely, and
q fragment weighing two and three quarter
pounds, entered the dwelling OF MI. J. r.
Miller, residing in West End, causing some
damage to the house and considerable const.r-
nation among the inmates. One individual,
however, lying asleep in the room into which
the missile entered, was not disturbed from his
nap, though it was deposited in very close
proximity to HIM. Upon the proper represen-
tation being made to General Slough, Mr.. Mil
Ter was promptly reimbursed for the damage
sustained to the house and furniture. No
blame. of course, attached 10 the commander
or the mortar schooner.-4ler. Jour, July %

white man, evidently stranger in the city,
was found lying in dying condition by the
side of a lumber pile in w. McLean's lumber
yard, and he died in fifteen minutes after he

upon him that would indicate his name or res
idence. He was dressed in a brown linen dus-
ter and pants, a checked woollen shirt. mixed
straw hat, gaiter shoes and mixed cotton socks.
Seventeen dollars and forty three cents in cur
rency was found upon him, a brass watch and
chain, white handkerchief, m arked A. E. in
German letters. An inquest was held by the
coroner, and the jury returned verdict of
death from causes unknown to the jury.

IN I'M n nIa practice OF tying down the tonguss

make the cows show well as mixers, Keep
them unmIlked until their unoers are sWeleo
nearly to bursting causing intense suffering to
the animals, and sometimes utterly running

1t is about time, also. that the market master

1t is impossible to move along the brick side

ever some unfortunate animal closely tied by
its four legs, lying on its back strangling, with
tongue and eyes protruding, uttering piteous
cries, so long it has strength. 1t is notorious
that they are kept in this position of torture for
hours, despite the Corporation ordinan &c de.
signed to remedy the evil In NO other city, in
