Destruction in the Air.

Park BENJAMIN, the distinguished sol
enlist, warns the country and the Gov
eminent of new and terrible engine of
war that NAV possibly come into use,
and against which New York would be
utterly defenseless. It Is the torpedo
balloon. A vessel lying out of range
of any fort could take advantage OF
favoring breezes to set adrift, without
aeronauts, small balloons, each carry
ing fifty pounds of nitro-glycerine, the
explosive TO be dropped by . we'll
known and cheap mechanical contriv-
ance at such time as may be determined
upon after the distance and velocity OF
the wind have been estimated. 1t will
readily be seen that vessel barely IN
sight Of land, and after only the rudest
calculations, could not send out any such
fiendish missiles without doing great
damage to life and property somewhere
within the great arta covered by New
York, Brooklyn and Jersey City.
The suggestion of this terrible wcap-
on of future wars was first made by q
correspondent Of . scientific aper Of
this city during the Russo Turkish con-
fiict. The London Times, commenting
upon it, declared it ''the most diabolical
idea the war has brought out" The
London Graphic discussed it in extenso
and published an engraving showing
how q torpedo balloon could be gov
erned by an electric wire from ship
board, which wire should be the means
Of telephonic communication between
the occupant Of the car and the vessel.
1t is q very easy matter to estimate
the velocity with which the wind will
carry q balloon. A few small pilot bal
looms sent up in advance will show
whether the breeze is met by any other
current at proper attitudes, and viii

LIEUTENANT-GENERAL Phil. H. SHERIDAN's
annual report as Comm6ndant of the Military
Division of the Missouri, with headquarters at
Chicago, has Just been forwarded to Washing
ton. 1t Is q business-like document. 1t sets
forth that there are in the Department Of Da-
kota, $50 officers and men; in the Department
Of the Platte, $50; in the Department of the
Missouri, ,72O, and in the Department of Texas,
$3.50. He again puts himself on record as con-
sidering this force entirely inadequate to the
great territory and the numerous demands
upon the army from Northern and Southern
borders. The ratio is about one man to every
seventy-f1ve square miles, and In Texas one
man to every one hundred and twenty-five
square miles. The result Is that the troops
are frequently overworked and often COM
PEELED to take the field against superior NUM-
bers The officers and men are equal in intel
hgence, activity and devotion to duty to any
army in the world, and no army of its size ao-
complishes One-third as much work from one
years end to another.
He refers to the rapidity with which emf
grants are taking up the land in the Far West,
and calls attention to the recommendations of
General Pope that permanent posts be estab-
lished in lieu Of the present costly and insufi-
Gent small posts. He says the railroad COM
panies are the strongest allies Of the military
in the West, and shows what wonders OF enter
prise are being accomplished by these vigor-
Gus corporations in the unsettled regions Of
the Territories. -ChtcaQO Journal.

RICHMOND, Va, November6 6.
LOUDON COUNTY, in this State, has been the
scene of one of the bloOdiest tragedies known
in Virginia. 1t seems that yesterday Merritt
Mott, a farmer in Loudon County, had quar-
rel with his sisterin-law. 1t is thought that he
had previously Quarreled with his wife, and
that the sister-in-law took her part, He was a
man Of strong temper, and, turning from his
sister-n-law, he went into the yard, and, get
ting large knife used for cutting corn, came
back and assaulted her with it. She ran into
the yard and he pursued her and stabbed her
until he thought she was dead. After this he
returned to the house, and, taking his gun, dis
charged It in the air and coolly reloaded It.
He then went to the spot where the woman
lay. and, putting the muzzle of the gun under
his chin, fired, the whole load passing through
his mouth. tearing out the tongue and lodg-
ing in bic head He fell to the ground, but
while In the throes OF death he saw some sign
Of returning life in the woman. Dragging
himself to where she lay, and reaching for
ward, he seized . big stone and dealt her
blow In the face. As he was raising himself
to repeat the blow his wife entered the yard,
and, taking In the situation at Q glance, she
herself seized another large stone, and, stand
ing over the PROSTATE form Of her husband,
put an end to his struggle. Her sister died In
afcw minutes after.

West and South.

sERRrBLE tragedy was recently enacted
ut Bstesville, Ohio. Frank N. Biedenbaugh,
. wealthy young German, who three years
ago married the daughter Of . neighboring
farmer, came home late . few nights ago. In
an intoxicated condition, and, entering the
room where his wife and child slept,
assaulted them with an Ak. His wife's
skull was crushed by a single blow. and
then his sons throat cut by the edge Of the
AZ. He then went to q room where Mrs.
Stephens, visitor, and her child and servant
girl were sleeping, and killed Mrs. Stephens
and child. The servant girl, awakened, sprang
toward the door, but was knocked senseless
and left for dead. Upon recovering con-
sciousness she gave the alarm, and the neigh
bors came. It Was not until morning that
the murderer was found hidden in tobacco
house with his throat cut not fatally.
Jealousy, insanity and drunkenness are the
theories advanced to accou Mt for the horrible
crime.

The Famine in Persia.

The famine is quite bad here now.
The exporters of carpets are employing
men to pave the streets with the money
sent to them. Mr.. Ward is having
wall built around the church graveyard,
and also a chapel is in process of con-
struction by the poor masons who could
not find work elsewhere. I say Mr..
Ward is having it done, as he oversees
the workmen and pays them every
evening. and gives each two pounds
and half of bread. Mr.. Wright gives
out money amounting to fifteen dollars
q day, in sums from twenty cents to
fifty, and distributes bread to about
four hundred persons. We have four
people in the house. The first one we
took was boy about ten years old,
who was just beginning to beg. Mr..
Ward told him to ask his mother if he
could come every day and open the
gate, and we would give him bread and
money to buy bread for his mother
every day. He has been here over two
months. The next one is boy about
fourteen years old. He was 50 nearly
starved that he had to be carried here.
Two days after he came we sent him
out to find his father, whom he feared
was dead. He found him in the grave
yard, whittier he had gone to die, and
brought him here to us. Afterward the
boy brought also an older brother.

fourteen mines, and increased to 1850

of 96,811 barrels. An approximate es-

The Horrors Of Sculpture in Naples.

Arrived at the gateway we were told
by the old " custode'' that the public is
no longer admitted to assist at the
funerals. "But l have an order from
the project" THAT alters the case"
he said. as he opened the door. For
the last twenty years every time l have
visited this horrible spot 1 have been
told that new land has been bought,
and that the old Campo Santo is to be
closed. But all that has been done is
this: Irritated by the repeated pro-
tests of Italians from the other prov
inces and of foreigners, the authorities
have shut out the public from a specta-
Gle that is as difficult as it is loathsome
to describe. The enormous church.
yard is divided into three hundred and
sixty-five squares, in each square a
stone with an iron ring in the center
closes up separate hole, which is re-
opened on the same day every success
i've year. Thanking the church on the
left side of the yard are lot of boxes
fixed in the wall, which, opening down.
ward, serve as temporary coffins. In
these were nine babies and little chill
dren, each with a flower in its mouth.
"And La Raffale?" l asked. The
Raffale used to give the little corpsea
each kiss, to send them more quickly
to paradise. "Oh, we don't have her
now, as the children don't get buried
until morning." As he spoke up came
the Royal Albergo del Poveri. The flap
of the car fell backward, a leaden tray
such as is used for transporting slaught-
cred oxen, was dragged out, and the
body of man, dressed in natures
clothing, was taken up head and heels
and flung into box by the church wall.
Next came the carrozzeme of the
municipality, all gilt and splendor, like
the Lord Mayors carriage, and out of
it was taken a corpse-this time with
some clothes on it. HE is particol-
are," said the guardian. And it ap-
peared that he had had the fortune to
die among his own people. Presently
the priest appeared, and hole No. PIP
was opened. The particulars was
thrown into a zinc box, which, by
means of a crane, was lifted over the
open hole and lowered down. You
heard q ''tonio;'' the zinc box came up
empty; the particulars had gone to his
last rest on the top OF last years skele-
tons. So for the rest of the corpses,
male and female. Then came the car
of the Incurabili, with the hashed
members of the human forms which
had rendered their last services to hui
manity on the dissecting table of the
hospital. These were pitched into the
hole on top of the rest, and above
these, tomorrow morning, would re-
pose the little dead ones whose moth
ers had placed flower in their mouths!
"Bastar' said my companion. And it
will probably satisfy the veriest skeptic
as to the miseries to which the poor of
Naples are subject to visit the Campo
Santo Vecchio any day in the year at
six o'clock p. m.-Cor. Pail Mall Ga
