Singular Discovery at Baltimore.

The american of late date says: 1t
in digging for the foundation of ware
house in what is now. the centre of bust
ness, the hull of a vessel wrecked more
than century ago, should be unearthed
and yet such is the fact. On Thursday
the workmen engaged in digging cellar
for warehouse on Charles street, near
Camden, struck q mass of timber very
much decayed, which appeared to be one
side of the hull of small sized sailing
vessel. Yesterday, during the progress
of the work, the men continued to dig
up the timbers and various pieces of
wood that, beyond all mistake, are parts
of wrecked vessel. Police Sergeant
Hause, of the Southern district, who is
well informed on variety of subjects,
especially the early history of Baltimore
puts forward a theory in regard to the
wreck which is supported by strong evil
dence. The place where the excavation
is now in progress is all made ground,
and previous to the year 1900 was cover
ed by deep water. Sergeant Hause has
in his position a curious and minute map
of Baltimore tome and harbor, executed
in 1852, upon which is marked spot
where the sloop Dove went down, being
the first wreck that ever occurred in the
waters of the Patapsco. By close calcu-
lations and measurements Sergeant
Hause has discovered that the place
where the excavation is now being made
on South Charles street is the exact To-
cality marked on his map as the scene
of the sinking of the sloop. 1t would
thus appear that the old hulk which the
men are digging up is the wreck of the
sloop Dove, now unearthed and discov-
cred for the first time after being buried
hundred and twenty-five years. Ser
geant Hause further states that he re-
members very clearly circumstance
happening to him when a very small
boy which bears on this subject. This
same locality was then about being made
the freight yard of the Baltimore and
Ohio railroad, and old Levi Taylor was
having well sunk on the premises.
Young Hause was surprised to see the
men hauling up quantities of wood from
the deep hole, and tried in vain several
times to find out how it was. One day
some gentlemen connected with the rail-
road asked the man conducting the work
how it came that they found wood at so

New Freight Train SiunaI.

The Pennsylvania Railroad Company
has recently introduced on freight trains
a new signal. 1t consists of a flashing
light fastened on the rear car, that indi-
Gates the speed and distance of train,
and shows whether it is at rest or in mo-
ton. The light is of two colors, one of
them being red and the other white
they are placed on what is known as the
" caboose," so that they may be seen in
both directions on the line. A simple
device for hiding the light at intervals is
affixed to each lamp so that it may be
made to " fiash'' or alternately appear
and disappear, and by suitable gearing
this is connected with one of the axles
of the car While the car is at rest the
lights are steadily visible; when the
train moves the lights flash once for
every revolution of the wheels, and thus
its movement and actual speed can be
easily estimated as far as the lights can
be seen.

Six Men Killed and Thirty Overcome by
lnhaling Gas In Coal Mine.

Between one and two o'clock Wednes-
day afternoon an accident occurred in
the Brookfield coal mine at Wheatland,
Pa, by which six men were killed and
thirty more were nearly suffocated.-
The names of the dead are Robert Will
liams Miles Davis; John Jones; David
Jenkins; Richard Jones, and John
Barter.
About eleven O'Clock the engine passed
into the slope. After being in short
time the men in charge of the engine
became suddenly affected by the gas
from the hard coal, causing them to fall
to the ground in an insensible condi-
tion. The engineer managed to make
his way back to the mouth of the bank
and gave the alarm, at which large
number of men rushed into the bank to
rescue their comrades. One after anoth-
er they passed in, but were almost i'm
mediately overcome by the gas, and
they, too, fell insensible. After several
had thus fallen, a gang was organized to
rescue those who went in last, and
squads of four or five passed in until they
came to fallen comrade, when they
would take him in their arms and carry
him out to the open air. In this way
SO men were brought out, six of whom
were either dead before reaching the
mouth of the bank or died Immediately
after. Wheatland is small town on
the Erie and Pittsburgh Railway, two
miles east of Sharon.

More Terrible Storms.

JANEsv1LLE, Wis, July GA terri
ble tornado swept everything before it
on Sunday night. The storm at Pen
saukee station, twenty-five miles north
of Green Bay, on the Chicago and North
Western railroad destroyed the Gardiner
house, the largest brick hotel and sum-
mer resort in northern Wisconsin,
Eight persons are known to be killed
and two are missing. Other buildings
were blown to pieces. The place is a
total wreck A saw mill, shingle mill,
the school house, store and 10 or 20
other buildings were blown down. A
powerful gust of wind raised the rail
road depot from its foundation and threw
it across the track preventing passage of
the Green Bay train for two hours. The
bridge was misplaced and damaged The
steam tug Spray and u schooner were
totally wrecked.
A Springfield, Mass, dispatch of the
10th inst, says: A tornado occurred at
Westfield, Mass, yesterday afternoon.-
1t came eastward through the gorge of
Westfield river and widened to half n
mile, telling trees, scattering fences and
demolishing buildings until its force had
expended.
1t first struck the wall of the Salmon
Falls Paper Mills, rebuilding from re-
cent fire, which fell, crushing in the en-
gine-house containing two men, one of
whom is seriously hurt. Two men
plowing saw the storm coming and at
tempted to reach barn near by. They
and the horses were thrown to the
ground and wounded by flying stones.-
When they recovered their sight the
barn was gone.
A family of six persons in house
heard the whirling noise and knew
nothing until they found themselves on
the floor, several rods from the site of
the house. The rest of the building was
destroyed. Large quantities of crops,
grass and trees were destroyed. At
Chicopee Falls the wind destroyed sew
eral barns, sheds and many trees.

A Terrible Accident.

TRENTON, N. j., July 1O.-Last night
about half past one o'clock DIR. e. III.
Reed, H. G. Paxson and two ladies were
returning home after a drive up the
Delaware when they were caught in the
storm. The night was very dark and
when near Scudder's Falls, six miles
from Trenton, the wagon upset and
threw the whole party, driver and
horses, into the basin of the Delaware
and Raritan canal feeder Paxson broke
through the window of the carriage and
pulled one of the ladies out and she
clung to the top of the carriage while
PaXsOn ran for assistance, and when he
came back she was rescued. Search was
made for Reed and the other young lady
and they were found 200 yards from the
carriage, both drowned and lying short
distance from each other The horses
and driver were saved, one horse being
badly hurt. Paxson was badly cut by
the glass of the carriage door.

Masked BurqIars.

The Keeseville, New York, National
Bank was robbed on Friday night
week by seven or eight masked burglars.
The watchmen were bound and gagged,
the vault and Marvin's spherical safe
blown open and the contents carried
away. The bank loses $1,000 in curren-
cy, $4,000 in the town of Chesterfield
bonds, 81 900 in government bonds, and
$1,000 in Essex county bonds total,
$4,000. Parties who had left packages

A Kiss in Vain.

While group of criminals who had
been sentenced at Springfield, ILL.,, to
the State prison at Joliet were standing
in the depot waiting for the train, last
Friday, a young woman stepped forward
and resting her head ON convict's
shoulder, said: Kiss me, George"
The officer smiled, for the woman's face
was besmeared with paint. But George"
took the kiss, and more; for between
her lips was small key with which he
could unlock the steel bracelets around
his wrists. AS the train bowled along
the road he shook off his bonds and
shot out of the window like q rocket.
The train was stopped, the officers gave
chase, and before long the fugitive was
recaptured.. So the kiss was thrown
away.

An Avalanche of Mormons.

On Sunday morning a special train of
twenty cars containing $50 Mormon en-
igrants, passed through this city on their
way to the promised land" of Utah.
Thirteen missionaries" accompanied
these candidates for future misery. How
successful the labors of the latter have
been is attested by the fact that nine
nationalities are represented in the mot
ley crowd of proselytes. OF these one
hundred and fifty were Danes, 200
Swedes, the rest onslsting of Germans,
Norwegians, Swiss, Welsh, Hollanders,
English, sprinkling of Irish and an
anamalous and strangely out of the way
little group of japanese.

great depth. Master Hause, who was
by, heard the foreman explain that in
former years the banks thereabouts used
to be covered with great quantities of
cord wood, and that the banks were
often washed away, taking the wood
with them and burying IL at the bottom
of the deep water, where it could not be
recovered. The whole subject is one of
interest, and no doubt much more could
be said about It.

the noise, but neither Of them saw any
flash of lightning. The man went to
Smith, andin about twenty minutes he
was restored to consciousness. Then at
tention was given to the horses. One Of
them was standing erect, with one foot
lifted little way from the earth, and
the other was kneeling with his nose in
earth, and both were stone dead, and re-
tanned their positions until they were
pushed over. The supposition is that
in this case the electricity went from the
earth to the sky.

members of the Returning Board, but
that he has been met with the threat
that if he attempts to defeat the efforts
to secure the conviction of Wells and
others, or if they are convicted and he
interposes an executive pardon, that he
will be impeached by the Legislature.

The small number of fires recorded on

due to the fact that so many cities and

Train Struck by Lightning.

The Middleton, IN. Y.,) Press says =
A train on the Midland Railroad, near
Walton, was struck by lightning a few
days ago. The storm was terrific. Crash
after crash of thunder with binding
lightning, accompanied by a deluge of
rain and hail, followed them. At one
time the train seemed to be enveloped
in sheet of electrical fire. A fearful
crash came, and instantly the engine
was in a volume of electricity balls of
fire encircled the driving wheels as they
revolved. Engineer Sanford beheld the
phenomenon and involuntarily shut off
the steam. Nearly every person on the
train experienced severe shock a large
tree by the track was shattered.
