CARUsI's OLD SALOON REDIvIvUs.-It is
with pleasure we announce and we feel that our
citizens generally will be pleased to learn, that
Mr.. L. Carusi Is now having his saloon, corner
Of Eleventh and @ streets, re6tted and refur-
nished In avery oreditable and splendid manner,
and that II will bo completed by the lst Of No
vember next, when 1t will be rented out to as.
sembies, and for concerts, balls parties lectures
and general meetings. This old edihoe was pur.
chased by the father Of Mr. Carusi In 1891, and
In 1922 Mrs President Adams, Mrs. seaton, and
others graced tho 6rst ball ever held within Its
walls. Entertainments given there, under the
management of Mr.. Carusi, have been visited by
all our Presidents, save, probably, Presidents
Washington and tho younger Adams. Mr.. Carusi,
in this old saloon, taught Admiral Porter and
other noted men Of the present day how to han
die, with grace, their pedal extremities. Mr..
Carusi was always careful to not rent his hall to
characters of doubtful reputation, and on that
score refused to let 1t to the famous Canterbury
company. We wish him success.

A TERRIBLE OCCURRENCE
Three Ladies Drowned.
stage Washed Away near TennsIIytown.

Last evening we received the sad information,
from Mr.. VIM. +. Holton, at Howard's livery
stable, on @ street, near Seventh, that at
about o'clock, p. m, as tho mail stage WAS ap-
proaehing Tennallytown from Rockville, It was
washed OF Of tho pike BY q hcavy current Of
water produced by the recent copious rains, and
that three ladies, Miss Mary Tor Margaret) Bar.
rett, who resides on G street, betFeen Twelfth
and Thirteenth streets; Miss Betty Brimmer,
Of Georgetown, and another lady, named not as
certained, who got into the stage at the resi-.
dence Of Mrs Holt, about one milo this sido Of
Rockville, were drowned. Tho point where the
stage upset Is about one mile and q half north Of
Tennallytown, whore the Falls Branch crosses
the turnpike.
A two.horsc ambulance crossed the branch
just ahead Of tho stage, and the stags-driver,
Mr.. George Fulton, deemed, therefore, that
thsre was no danger. Mr.. Christian Keefsr, Of
Rockville, was q passenger In the coach at the
time II was upset, but ho managed to extrioate
himself, and save bis life. Mr.. Keefer and the
driver having narrowly escaped with their lives,
commenced to search for the ladies, but at the
end Of an hour they could not be found. The
horses were all gotten out, one Of which, the
lead horse was washed away about afty yards,
and will probably die Of his injuries. The stage
was Hosted about thirty yards, and was COM
pletely wrecked on huge log, and the United
States mails could not be seen anywhere. Mr..
Keefer mounted ono Of the horses and rode to
the city, when Mr.. Howard sent out q span Of
horses and vehicle.
At about IL o'clock, p. m, rider returned to
the city with one Of the mail bags, and reported
that the bodies Of the two ladies named above
were recovered and sent to their friends. The
wearing apparel had been torn and washed en-.
tirely from the bodies, one Of which was found
about half mile below where the sad affair oc.
CURED. There had gathered around the scene
Of the wreck four or Ave hundred persons, who
created an intense excitement, and every endea.
vor was being made to recover the body Of the
lady yet In the water.
The rain throughout nearly the whole Of Mont.
gomery country, yesterday and the night pre-.

and the destruction to the crops, bridges and
fences is truly disheartening. In fact, many Of
the farmers are nearly distracted by their lo,se in
