A Subterranean Fire Raging Be-
meath the City of Pittsburgh.
Especial to the Chicago Tribune.l


PITTsBURGH, Nov. 15.--A subterranean
fire is raging in the portion of the city
known as Herron's Hill, which threatens
serious consequences to about five hum
dred acres of improved property. In dig
ging out for Twenty third street against
the bank, some three or four months ago,
the wOrkmen discovered a strata of the
coal which is so plenty in this city. In
order to warm coffee for their lunches,
they discovered this to be just the place,
and accordingly lit fire at the mouth.
Gradually this slight blaze has developed
itself, till now it is perfect volcano,
whose ominious roaring can easily be
heard by persons travelling over the sur
face. No efforts have been made to ex-
tinguish this blaze, and now it Is spread.
ing fearfully fast, endangering life and
property.
Herron's Hill is the highest point in
Allegheny county, and on its summit is
located one of our water reservoirs,
which has been but lately erected. Wa.
ter was recently put in it, but it leaked
out Lately, however, it was found that
the water did not pass out altogether
from the leaks, but that portion has
evaporated in steam, caused by the i'm
mense fire raging below There is dan.
ger of this work caving in, and, should
it go, the flames will receive additional
draught, and will thus be harder to sub.
due, and have tendency of spreading
the fire still further. The ultimate re,
suit of this subterranean fire can hardly
be told at present Millions of improved
property lie on the hill and in close prox
unity to these burning mines, and should
any settling of earth Occua at any point,
the result would be most disastrous Eff
forts viii be made to conquer the flames
by sapping and mining, but it viii take
months, and perhaps years, to extinguish
this mass of burning coal, much of which
is burning hundreds of feet below the
surface.

sunshine causes the sneezfng, although
it may be done frequently without the
assistance of old Sol. It is quite provok-

when, in few moments, you have near

given your digestive apparatus all the an

quired in a regular way in a weeks time.
| When the roof of your mouth has seem

tender nerves, that had been blown
through backwards by some bellows

say it is slightly provoking then to have
| these queer friends, who so warmly sym
pathize with you because you are af-
flicted with that summer "a bad cold that's
going about" and that it is $50 much
worse than a winter cold, " to soothingly
suggest to you that they ALWAYS enjoy

he emerged, with a countenauce as vivid
as the back of scalded lobster"

~ A press dispatch of the 18th
from Little Rock. reports most per-
feet quiet to prevail throughout that
city. Smith and his Secretary OF
State, Wheeler, cannot be found, and
Governor Garland will tomorrow
offer a reward for their apprehension
that they might be brought before
court, and there held to answer to
charges against them under the laws
of the State. Neither Governor
Garland nor the Legislature, which
is now in session, will appeal to
either the President or Congress, the
State authorities being fully able to
protect the government. 1t is re.
ported Smith is hidden in the Uni
ted States arsenal. Public senti.
ment is almost entirely against
Smith. both among the friends of the
late Governor Baxter and those of
Brooks. After the arrest of John
G.. Price, of the Republican, for print
ing and distributing Smiths procla.
nation, the sheriff searched the city
for Smith and Wheeler, but could
find neither. Price was released on
100000 bail. The State house at
night vas guarded by armed men.
