He (byRred Him,

We stated in our brevities on Thurs
day that "Joe Seal, was disc0nsolate.
The Indian Doctors head covering
brings him down. Try again, Joe!"
This morning we cast our eyes down the
stairway leading to our sanctum, hav-
ing been attracted by what might have
proved first class apparition. The
queer thing worked its way on up the
stairway, and then We thought there
must be strong power behind that
huge un.umbrella that was gradually
being forced up between the siies of
that wide stairway. Up it came, and
when the last step was taken, the front
part of that queer h-ad-gear went up
wards toward the ceiling at an angle of
about forty five degrees, and beneath
were the merry twinkling eyes and
smiling humorous phiz OF Captain Joe
Seal. In look and laugh that ex-
planned all, he asked US if that would
do? We assured him that it would,
and that he had completely overed the
Indian medicine man. Now is the time
for the Indian doctor.

Good Iron.

We are informed that one of our most
extensive firms is suffering little in
convenience from their desire to turn
out NEST excellent work, and thus keep
up their own character and that of
their nsighborhood. They, when iron
was plenty, refused any but the best,
and returned inferior iron to the maker.
Now the iron men knowing they are
50 particular delay their orders, and
send their iron to manufactures that
are not as careful of their reputation.
They are thus filled with orders, but
delayed for want of good material.
These things generally remedy them
selves. The erection of new iron
works by this firm to supply them
selves with really good article is with
in the bounds of probability.

New. Mr.. Bristsr Coming .

We are informed that Rev. George
R. Bristor, pastor Of Ames NJ. Z. church,
New Orleans will start for trip north
next week, when he will be sure to
give Wilmington and New Castle call.
As will be remembered Mr.. Bristor was
sent to New Orleans, last March to as
sume the pastorate m Ames M. +.
church and to try to liit the debt of
81 900 which rested so heavily upon 1t.
During the war when the Union Army
took possession of New Orleans, the
Southern pastors all fled, abandoning
their tiocks, when President Lincoln
opened tn. church 10 loyal northern
pastors.
After the war President Johnson re-
vers-d the order Of things, and restored
the Southern pastors to their pulpits.
A number Of loyal Methodists were thus
left without a meeting place, when Mr..
simpson coming to New Orleans at the
time a Methodist Episcopal Church was
organized, and after meeting in several
places, they removed into a beautiful
church which had been built for their
reception. The Missionary Society CON
triSnted $50, 900, and the Church Ex-
t-nsien Society 81 900 towards paying
oil the building of the church, but
there remains this legacy in the shape
of 81, ,@t'o which it expected that Mr..
Bristor will lift.
An appeal has been made by the
Bishops for aid, and some OF them
have shown their faith by their works
by subscribing literally to the sum for
the liquidation OF the debt. Bishop
Andrews has subscribed 800; Bishop
Scott. $780,: Bishop Haven, $50, and
Bishop Peck, $50. Mr.. Bristor besides
visiting his friends here and at New
Castle, will no doubt take a tour
through all the Conferences, and not
rest until he has completed the work in
view for him when he was appointed
pastor of Ames M. E. Church.

strolled in the direction of Tenth and
Church streets, where, exhausted and
hungry, it curled itself up in seclu-
ded spot on vacant lot and fell asleep.

In Philadelphia, the two alleys that
cut out the northeast corner Of the
square bounded by Fairmonnt avenue,
Beach, Front and Brown streets, and
which meet just in the rear Of A. Wilt
& Sons = planning mill, prese nted scene
of desolation yesterday.
The narrow passages, one leading
from Beach and the other from Brown,
were piled up many feet high with
bricks, debris OF machinery, twisted
tubing Of boilers and the wreck Of
houses and lumber. In Court A, the
one that leads from Beach street, a
great boiler, sixteen feet long and
nearly six feet in circumference, and
weighing, perhaps, ten tons, blocked
the way, one end Of it standing inside
of a blacksmith shop, the point Of en-
try being marked by the sh altered walls
of the building, the other end buried
in the ground.
A squad of tiremen worked desperate
ly all day clearing away the debris of a
house that stood just at the corner of
the alley and anxiously looking under
every timber they lifted. They were
searching for the body of Eva Long,
who with her motherand brother, Claude
Long, had been in the act Of sitting
down to breakfast in their little home,
No. Court A, when the boiler OF the
planning MILL jus. adjoining had explod-
ed and their house fell in ruins upon
them. After five hours hard work they
came to her body, crushed between two
beams.
The mother and SON were soon
found, but they we're dead, and with
out hope of saving the little ehild's
life the men toiled on, lifting brick by
brick and gathering up the broken
pieces of ofhousehold frmniture with hopes
of finding her. Before that, however,
the body of the engineer, Michael
Detel, had been taken from the ruins
into which the house ct Mrs. Gamble,
Just across the way, had fallen, and
the list of dead was then complete, as
follows:
Michael Dietel, engineer, Of No. LOG
Brown street. Mary Ann McAvoy, No
