Loss OF THE PANTHER Jan. 18th
the ship Panther, loaded with coal, sail
ed from Nanaimo for San Francisco in
tow of the steamer Goliah, Capt. Libby.
They had proceeded as far as Discovery
Island, when a storm came up and they
we're obliged to put back. It then blew
so heavy that Capt. Libby was obliged
to cut the hawser. The Panther imme-
diately went ashore, bow on. She then
turned broadside on and the waves broke
completely over her. Night thencoming
down Capt. Libby lost sight Of her. He
cruised around near the place for three
days, but was unable to discover any
traces of the vessel or crew, and it is
pretty certain that she is lost with all
hands. The following is list Of those
on board at the time: Capt. Balch and
wife; Penhallow, 1st officer; Lewis, End
officer; F. E. Saunders, steward; Is sea-
men, carpenter, cook and boy, making
% persons in all.

The New EPISCOPAL CHURCH NEW
YoHK, Jan. 3.-The regular service of
the Reformed Episcopal Church will be-
gin in Steinway Hall. tomorrow. Bish-
op Cummings will preach. The Bishop
says it will be premature to give in de-
all the names of we'll known clergymen
and laymen of this city who may be ex-
pected to give in their adhesion to tn
new Church, but there is abundant
proof that the spirit of considerable
portion of the Protestant Episcopal
Church in New York is ripe for this
departure. The accession of Rev. DR..
Goddard, rector Of one Of the largest
and most important churches on Staten
Island is good sign. Numerous offers
from clergymen of other denominations
expressing n readiness to take part in
the work have been received. Presbv-
terian, Methodist and Baptist Ministers
have expressed desire to take charge
of the new organizations in this move
ment. From men of note n other Chris
tian denominations there have come
suggestions looking toward a probable or
possible Union between the new Church
and portion of such Christian bodies.

n Livingstone County, New York,
boasts of suspicious case Of catalepsy.
Miss Bonny. lady we'll known in the
community, and believer in modern
Spiritualism, had been predicting for a
long time that sooner or later she was TO
enter the trance state. One evening"
about 1--WE weeks ago, she robed herself
for the night, and told the family that
the event she had so long predicted had
arrived. She laid herself upon bed
and in four hours she breathed no
more, the heart stopped beating, the
pulse ceased throbhing, and she has
lain in that condition up to tho present
time without food or water. She oc-
cupier sleeping apartment adjoining a
sitting room, in which a fire is kept
night and day. There are no signs of
decomposition. Previous to going in
to this state she designated the persons
who were to have exclusive charge of
her inanimate form. and all others, ev-
en- her parents. we're to kept out of the
room. Whether there is collusiop bes
tween Miss Bonny and the persons said
said to be in charge of her. it is. of
course, impossible to say.-Ne,o York

WNsHINGroN, Jan. A. 1t is now well
understood that the Texas Pacific Rail-
road Company will ask for no subsidy
in money or bonds to aid its road, but
will seek to have some way provided by
which the interest on its bonds, to ex.
tend to the amount of $40, 900 per mile,
may be guaranteed. SO as to permit ne
gotiations in Europe without ruinous
discount. A plan has been proposed as
follows: the Government to guarantee
the interest on low rate bonds and the
company to give up to the Government
all its assets, excepting fixed percent-
age to be used for running expenses; the
Government to appoint a Commission
to take charge of the sale of the COM
pany's bonds; to pay the receipts into
the Treasury to be used as fund for
the settlement of the interest account
The Government also to retain all sums
due the company for the transportation
of mails and Government material. Col.
Scott will be here in few days, and
will then decide upon the course to be
pursued by the company.

A TALL Tower PRoPosED.-The tower
Babel was pigmy to what q COM
pany of enterprising Philadelphia bridge
builders proposes to construct as toy
to grace the approaching Centennial Ex-
hibition in that city. 1t is to be of
wrought iron, 1000 feet in height. and
beside it such structures as the dome o
St. Peters, the pyramids of Egypt and
Bunker Hill monument would be dwarf.
ed into insignifica nee. The tower is to
be circular in sections, 100 feet in diam
eter at the base, diminishing to 80 fee
at the top. 1t is proposed to have spi
raj staircase winding around the center
tube foi those prefering to walk up; but
elevators will be provided, which are
calculated to ascend to the top in three
minutes. The Scientific american says
that this is one OF the greatest en-
gineering projects Of the age, and it is
in the hands of constructors capable of
completing whatever they undertake.

r. The Pacific Christian Advocate is
responsible for the following: A Curl
osity has been dug mp at North Yamhill.
consisting of petriied human finger
with the nail perfect as life. Mr.. George
Robinson and his brother were digging
q we'll, and, when at the depth of thirty
six feet, they came to clam bed, and
among the petri6ed CLANS the finger was
discovered. We are satisfied that it
never belonged to Noah and his family,
but cannot tell but what it was the
property of one of the " sufferers" of
that period. This relic has been pre-
sented to Mr.. 7. A. Wood for his Mu-
scum in Portland, by J. S. Robinson.

R Recently two young men living
in Detroit, anxious to exhibit their. nerve
laid wager with third person. which
resulted in some rifle shooting extraor-
dinary. A dozen apples were procured
and one gentleman stood 40 feet distant
from the other. who shot with rifle
each of the dozen apples in succession
from his friends head, after the manner
of the late William Tell. Not satisfied
with that the apple-holder produced a
common pasteboard match box cover
and held it close to his head, between
his finger aud thumb, and in that posi-
ton permitted his friend to fire three
shots at it, each going plumb center.
