Death in the Ruins of a Fallen House

By the falling of a house on Longworth
Street, Cincinnati, September 8, two men
and one woman were instantly buried and
killed in the ruins, and four others were
seriously injured. The Gazette says that the
building crumbled in an instant, sinking
down in one heap of brick, mortar, plaster
and fragments of woodwork, leaving no
trace of what it had been, and sending up a
cloud of dust that looked like dense vol
umes of white smoke mounting from a
great conflagration. Some of the passers
by say they saw the walls fall, saw some of
the frightened women going down with the
mass, and then were blinded by the dust.
For quite a time nothing could be seen
through the heavy volume of lust resting
in the air, and when this settled there lay
only the confused mass of rubbish. The
cause of the accident: a new cellar was
being digged adjoining the house that fell;
the foundation wall of the building was
endangered, and Thomas Coughlan, of the
Chicago House Raising Company, was en-
gagged to shove it up. Mr.. COughlan had
progressed SO far in the work as to make a
hole in the foundation, place a heavy beam
therein, and fix a fulcrum. Under the pro-
truding end of this beam a jackscrew had
been set, but not frightened. 1t is said that
the west wall of the wrecked building was
considerably bulged out before Mr.. Cough
Ian began his labors, and that he had been
| called too late to save it. Nevertheless he
was doing the best he could under the cir
cumstances. Just as the workmen were en-
gagged in tightening the jackscrew the gravel
slipped from under the foundation wall of
the i'll fated house, and the west wall went
with crash into the excavation for the new
cellar.
Some laborers engaged in the excavation
at the time escaped without injury. Those
killed and injured were inmates of the house
that fell.

1t needs first to be washed with soap
suds, then covered with a coat of dis
solved glue, and then with paint. A
broad fiat brush does the work quickly.
When chromOs require cleaning re-
move all dust with a feather brush, and
wipe carefully with a soft channels skin
or fine linen cloth, very slightly damp
ened. If a little spotted or dull, a drop
of oil on the channels will remove the
blemish. If the varnish is dull or rubbed
off, revarnish with thin mastic varnish.
Like oil paintings, it is not desirable to
hang chromos in a dark room; but never
expose them to the direct rays of the

Of all creatures the horse has the
smallest stomach relative to his size.
Had he the complex Illuminating stomach
of the OK he would not at all times be
| ready for exertion. The stomach of the
horse is not so capacious, even when dis
tended, as to impede his wind or speed,
and the food passes onward with a
greater degree of regularity than any
other animal. In eight to ten minutes
after a horse drinks apail of water it has
passed entirely out of the stomach into
the large intestine.

The New York Fire-The Day After
the CONFEDERATION.

NEW YORK, Sept. 4.-The Euening Post
furnishes the following: The scene of the
great fire at Thirty-ffth Street and Tenth
Avenue yesterday was this morning a vast
wilderness of ruins. The burned area be-
tween Tenth and Eleventh Avenues extends
from the middle of the block on the north
side of Thirty-fourth Street to the middle
of the block on the north side of Thirty
sixth Street. In addition, a number of
buildings were damaged on the west side of
Tenth Avenue.
A considerable number of spectators as
sembled to-day, but they were Kept at a dis
lance from the ruins by the police. The
ruins resemble those of a burned town.
The blackened walls still stand at irregular
intervals, the spaces between covered by
immense piles of bricks, fragments of iron,
large and small, twisted and warped out of
all resemblance to the original beams,
girders, or machinery, of which these are
only relics.
Only one engine was at work to-day, close
by the remains of the engine which the
fremen were obliged to abandon yesterday.
Near by lay the front wheel, tires and a few
other relics of a new hose carriage aban-
doned with the engine.
The lack of water yesterday was due to the
small size of the mains in the neighborhoed,
which werelaid in the days of hand engines,
and are only six inches in diameter.
This morning the hydrant furnished only
about five pounds pressure apiece, instead
of twenty or twenty-five. Among the relics
were the remains of a cart, and the black.
ened skeleton of a horse, in the yard OF
Hunts pickle factory. The team was all
ready to be driven away at the time the fire
cut off the means of escape.
NEW YORK, Sept. 4.-The Board of Alder.
men to-day voted to investigate the causes
of the fatal West side fire. The Commits
sioner of Public Works was authorized to
lay larger mains in the vicinity of the fire
as in the opinion of the Aldermen much Of
the loss of life and property was due to the
insufficient supply of water.
NEW YORK, Sept. Mo bodies have yet
been found in the ruins of the fire at Thirty
fifth Street and Tenth Avenue. The latest
estimate places the losses at $780, 600, ant
the insurance at $1,000 600.

Foreign.

On September a, the following dispatch
from Paris was received: Gail the journals
that ex-President Theirs died quite
suddenly at six o'clock yesterday evening,
at st. Germain."
A correspondent telegraphs from Paris
that it would be impossible to convey an
idea of the grief and CONSERVATION which
prevail at the death of Theirs. The news
spread like wild-fre, and even at an early
hour, although the weather was very in
clement, the streets of Paris filed with peo-
pie in great excitement. Some were actually
shedding tears, and all were giving vent to
feelings of griefand apprehension, the death
of Theirs just now being regarded by all
as a national calamity. Theirs had been
staying for the last few weeks at Pavilion
Henri Quatre, st. German En- Laye, and had
caught a slight cold, but nothing had led to
the anticipation of this sudden termination
of his e%ventful career. Another cores
pondent says his death has made a deep i'm
preston in political circles. Conservatives
think it assures them success at the cleo
lions. Great CONSERVATION prevails in the
Republican camp.

NEWS SUMMARY.
Washington

ACineinnati Gazette dispatch from Wash
ington says that letters from Minister Fos-
ter represent our relations with Mexico as
in a very unsatisfactory condition. Of the
eight marauders whose ~extradition is
asked for by the United States, only two,
who are American citizens, will be given up
in any event. This request has brought out
the fact which our State Departmental moi
seem to know, that u extradition treaty
does not apply to citizens of Mexico who
commit offenses in the United States and es
cape to Mexico. The feeling of the Mexican
authorities toward the United States is rep
resented as increasing in bitterness.

In hanging out clothes, never let those
that do the washing hang out the clothes,
for while they are at the tub they get
warm and heated, and especially in win
ter or windy weather it is very injurious
to go out while heated. Many cases of
consumption undoubtedly are brought
on in this way.
Wood has many advantages over coal
for small fresh an upstairs room, as it
can be carried more readily, and causes
little dirt and almost no ashes, while the
noise of feeding the fire is avoided. The
latter evil may be remedied, however,
by putting the coal on in paper bags such
as are used by all grocers.
HOusekeepers can save themselves
considerable heating labor in summer
by rising early and cooking the three
meals for the day before nine o'clock.
Boiled ham, pies, buildings, tarts, stewed
berries, and fruits, placed where they
will keep cool till meal time, make an
agreeable variety and save the necessity
for so much work over a hot fire at moor
and night on warm days.

supplied by the following stanzas:
"The locomotive engines's fiery breath
Sweeps savage on the down and upper tracks;
1t deals destruction, leads to sudden death!
Few other qualities Of force it lacks.
Rash man, forbear thine impious hand to raise,
Nor ever dare to touch TIL important switch.

Almost a Fable.

One midsummer's day in the long
ago, a good old man named Abdul Ell
Kerum, noted for his kind heart and
gentle ways, bought a watermelon as he
was going home to dinner. 1t was the
first melon he had seen in twelve
months, and one couldn't blame him for
ton, he devoured the red-colored fruit.
He thumped on the melon and it
thumped A 1. He pressed it with his
knee, and the dull "c-rackl" proved a
ripeness there. The grocer said it was
o. X, the boys around said they would
betitwas, and the good AbdulEl Kerum
handed over the cash and bore the melon
home in triumph. Laborers gazed on
his burden and sighed; servant girls
leaning over gates wished they worked
in his kitchen; middle-aged spinsters
sadly remembered how they fooled them
selves when they refused his escort home
from spelling-schools.
"Prepare your mouth for a delicious
feast, and after dinner we'll walk down
and buy that camel's hair shawl" he
said to his wife as he entered the house.
1t wasn't much of a dinner. The good
| Abdul Ell Kerum didn't believe in pie
and cake and buildings and lamb-chops,
and perhaps he couldn't have had them
if he had believed with all his might.
"Now, the next thing will be some
thing else," remarked Abdul as he
pushed his plate aside and pulled the
melon towards him. We a never
be thankful enough that nature has pro
vided such delicacies for the palates Of
men,"
The knife sank out of sight below the
green rind and the melon fell apart. L
wasn't a red core. 1t wasn't the hun
dreth part as rosy as the face of Abdu
Ell Kerum. 1t lacked about twenty-five
days of maturity, and the price, "be
ing tits you" was fifty cents.
"Soldp' whispered the wife as sh'
buttered another ear of corn.

The Dinner.

A writer in the Contributors Club"
of the August atlantic, tells of his dis
may when in speaking to some English
friends about the star group of the
Clipper" and of its being the only one
of the consultations whose appearance
really conforms with the name, he was
met with the query:
"What is a dipper"
"Here," he says, "were people with
whom l could talk an hour about Locke,
Berkely and Hume, who didn't know,
after all, what a dipper was!"
When he tried to explain, the result
was:
"a ladle! We understand. Oh, yes!
A1adlen
"In this case," the writer adds, " not
only the words but the things varied
that is, they don't have clippers"
strictly so called, in England"
When Professor Proctor was asked by
the editor of st. Nicholas to write a pa
per on the constellation of the Clipper"
he appeared embarrassed for a moment
and then said:
COIL you mean the 'Cleaver.' We
call that constellation the 'Cleaver' in
England"

Household Hints.

To Clean Silverware and Ornaments.
-Silverware may be cleaned by warm
ing it, and then coating it with a solu-
ton diluted with alcohol. Cover old
ornaments with a moist paste of whiten;
ing and sal volatile, let it dry, and then
brush it off with a moderately hard
brush. Brass ornaments should first be
washed with a strong ley made of rock
alum, in the proportion of one of
alum toapint of water, rubwith channels.

Sponge Pudding-This is new and
furnished by a French cook, and is both
delicate and delicious. One-quarter of a
pound of -four, one-quarter pound OF
sugar, boiled in. one quart of milk to a
thick batter, then add a quarter of a
pound of butter. Divide twelve eggs
and add the beaten yolks to the batter,
then mix in the whites beaten to a stiff
froth. Put into a batter pudding dish
and set into a larger dish of water, and
bake in the oven about forty minutes,
with a brisk fire.
Quaking Fruit Pudding.-This is sim.
pie, easily made, and delicious. Any
kind of bottled or fresh fruit can be
used. Butter a deep dish and lay in
thin slices of bread and butter dipped in
milk, and then a layer of rhubarb or any
fruit, sweetened, and sliced with a little
nutmeg and cinnamon; then another
layer of bread and butter also dipped il
milk and placed with the buttered side
down. Cover with a plate and bake
slowly two hours, then with the plate re
moved half an hour.

Bermuda Grass.-We copy the fol-
lowing from the Mobile Register: "Does
Bermuda grass bear seedF" This ques-
ton seems to be concerning the people
no little Just now. Scarcely a week
passes in which we do not receive letters
asking us to decide it. More than once
we have given our opinion through the
Register, but it seems to have escaped
the attention of many, We take the occa-
sion to repeat our answer Of curse
Bermuda grass bears seed in some parts
of the world, but not here in the United
States. 1t flowers here, and has every
appearance of seeding, but the seeds
invariably blasts before coming to
maturity.
We often see the seed of Bermuda
grass advertised for sale. 1t is possibly
the seed of some other grass-it is GER
tainly not the seed of the true Bermuda
grass (OynOdOn Dactyton,) unless ii
has been imported from some other
country.
Bermuda grass is now the great rage
in Australia. In that country they call
it the Doub grass. DR.. R. w. Guilfoyle,
in his annual report of the Melbourne
Botanical Garden, says of it:
The Doub grass has no superior as a
hardy pasture grass for arid Chimes
though as a lawn grass it is inferior,
presenting in the winter a brown and
rusty appearance. l can state from ex.
perience, however, in New South Wales
and Queensland, that where it has been
introduced round a station hut, horse:
and cattle, when left to feed as they
choose, have collected around it eagerly.
refusing the native grasses in luxuriant
growth neal them as long as a blade Of
Doub grass remained. As to the nutri
ment contained, there can be no doubt
as many squatters across the Murray
could testify. Respecting durability
the same may be said, as during seasons
of excessive drouth, when scarcely 6
blade could be seen, so tenacious of life
is Cynodon dactylon, that when the
weather broke, it sprang up into rich
luxuriance, where native grasses haG
been totally destroyed"
