What hung ON q single Wire

On Sunday morning large and heavi-
ly loaded steamship, making her way
through Point Channel, within the cor
porate limits Of Boston, found her course
impeded by railroad bridge, the draw
Of whish was not open.s- The pilot pulled
at q handle that sheuld have ruug bell
in the engine rsom and stopped the
ship. But the bell did not ring; the
steamer went on; she struck the bridge,
apparently at the draw, broke the tolt
which locks the draw and sprung the
rails about q foo. and half from their
proper positions. Meanwhile . passen-
ger train was rapidly approaching the
bridge (which is said to have had no vne
on it. When within trains length Of
the bridge the engineer, happening to
notice the displaced rails, reversed the
action of the locomotive and saved I've
car loads OF passengers from death by
stopping the train within fifteen feet OF
the bridge. This chapter of accidents
and horrible possibilities all came of the
breaking of bell wire on the steamship.
At the extra cost of a dollar two or
three wires might have extended from
the engineers bell to the handle in the
pilots room, ana many bells aboard
steam boats and steamships are 81 rigged ,
in order that the common accident of a
breaking wire may not lead TO disaster.
When the owners OF the steamer repair
the damage caused BY the accident they
will probably agree with US that the
small econominies involving great risks
are detesta ble.- Exchange.

Informed upon good authority that some
of the parties who have been inclined to
90 below the market have loaded them.
selves up with cheap orders--in one case
enough To run the works three or four
months-and are now refusing orders.
AT Pittsburg the pig iron market at
present is lirmer tnan il has been since
the collapse. There has been largely
increased movement there within the past
week. sales within the aggregate OF 6.O0O
having been effected The increasing
iirinness in the pig iron market is viewed
with great astonishnent by many when
they consider that pig iron is pouring in
to this country at the present time ut an
average of 1000 tons per day, and that
there is now 250,000 tons of foreign
pig stored along the Atlantic seaboard.
These parties cannot understand how the
price of pig iron can advance while
there is such an enormous influx of for
eign iron. The explanation of this seem
ing paradox, however, sets the question
at rest,
Foreign iron Is not of much account.
1t is not available for ordinary purposes.
and in instances where it is used it is of
such nm inferior quality, as compared
with American pig,that the manufacture
crs do not care to use it. 1t is mainly
what is known as foundry iron. The
present influx of this inferior iron is
composed of consignments to American
bankers, who have had to take it for ad
vance that was made by them TO specula-
tors during the boom 1t was bought by
spectators who, during the boom, la
bored under the assumption that any
thing that was Iron was of good value.
They were unacquainted with the fa-
tai objections TO Scotch pig, which we
have given above, but soon found out
that they had made n bad investment,
aud in transferring this iron to their
bankers, they have not explained the sit
uation to them. and the latter labor un-
der the assumption that they havea good
/ thing. This iron, if sold at all,will have
TO he slaughtered in the full sense of the
word 1t is expected, however that the
greater portion OF it will be placed in
stock. and when il gets there it will be
hard to say when it will see the light
| again. There were stocks of foreign pig
in this city that lay idle for ten years
preceding the boom, and only came in
to the market then through gullible spec
tators, who had their fingers badly
| burned
AS regards manufactured iron, the
feeling daily grows hetter. Many firms
here are stocking up,and some mills have
five months stock laid away 1t is i'm
possible to place an order here for three
months future delivery. Orders are
coming in plentifully Reading Eagle.

Executions IN China.

In treatment of their State criminals
the Chinese move with characteristic tar
diness. and a doomed man has many
months to live before him. Routine fixes
the month of December rs the most con
venicnt Seasons of public executions.
The prisons in all the different provinces
are all well stored with prisoners under
sentence of death, but when the end of
the year approaches the Minister of jus
tice revises the list of these convicts,
striking out any names he desires to
spare The paper is then submitted to
the Emperor, who in turn reviews the
list and exercises the Imperial clemency.
When December comes round the fatal
list goes the Circuit of all the Provinces
The Governor assembes his prisoners and
holds Il solemn review at the place of eX-
ecution. The time has now come for
| formality and action. The paper is
brought and duly sealed. The seal is
broken and the list read out. Those
| whose names are crossed out learn their
good luck for the first time; the others,
without needless ceremony or delay, are
then and there executed. To IA European
the lcngthened suspense would be intol

and as the majority of the convicts get
pardoned they are as hopeful to the enc
as New York murderers.

der was sorely pc1lcXcd. AS Mrs. )ea-
con Carter expressed it, Them critters
at the school house act as if possessed
with witches, and Miss Kit felt that she
would gladly have exchanged them for
the whole company of the servants of
the prince of the power of the air,
that of old time go sorely afflicted the
ancient town of Salem.
Such state of affairs could not of
course long escape the notice of the only
remaining school director, and Mr.. Wal
lace had frequent interviews with the
porpleXed teacher and he found himself
thinking of her in u way that he had
never even dreamed of thinking of
woman, yet | supect he would have been
astonished if any one had suggested that
he was in love lie was interested in
Miss kit--and in the school-because it
was his official duty to be. Only that
and nothing more. 1t was his duty to
attend to the school aud he discharged
that duty in the most painstaking man
ner.
by the advice of the director Miss
Kit took iirmer stand and punished one
or two pupils, but rebellion is much
more easily suppressed in the commence
ment than after some time has passed,
as all history teaches and Miss Kit
found.
The school had been running two
weeks
Deacon Garter was expected home
Monday night, and the people predicted
that he would at once bring order (Which
is Heavens first law out of what pretty
closely resambled chaos as far as law
was concerned, by the discharge of the
teacher, and the hiring of either the
Brown girl or Mary Liscomb who, it
was said would thrash the rebels into
instant and unconditional submission.
Saturday evening Mr.. Wallace called
at the school house after the school had
been dismissed. 1t had rained more or
less all day and the road was rather
muddy.
If Miss Kit is here III take her home,
Mr. Wallace had thought as he drew up
his horse in front of the temple of knowl-
edge.
Miss Kit was there.
And Miss Kit was in tears
And naturally Mr.. Wallace inquired
what fresh trouble had occurred, inquired
be it said, with sad heart. for he could
not disguise from himself that Miss Kit
must go.
They are getting worse and worse
sobbed Miss Kit. and to day, when |
put Tom Dyer under the desk to punish
him he cut my rubber to bits,and the lit
tie teacher held up the fragments of what
had once been a dainty little rubber.
And now, she added they tell me that
cross old Deacon Carter will make me
flcave. and where can get another en-
gagemcnt
I'll tell you, said Ross Wallace.
She looked up and read the love story
that his eyes told,and her own black eyes
fell again.
Take me for Il lifelong pupil. BE my
wife, he said.
Miss Kit looked up shyly and whis-
pered something that probably was not

ceiyed-his first love kiss.
