Two Sad Deaths.

Jennieton correspondence of the
Chronicle: Thomas Cassidy, a young
man of twenty-three years Of age. son
Of Edward Cassidy. of this town, has
lately been cut off in the prime OF
life, and who was a few days prior 70
his death apparently in the best Of
health. A sister Of the deceased, Mrs.
McGinty, Of Waldwick, who had long
been ailing, required the undivided
care Of her husband, and Thomas
went To rrliye his brothcr-in law Of
the farm work he WAS there taken
with lung fever. and removed To the
house OF 4 neighbor, where death en-
sued in few days. The funeral,
which took place at the Ridgcway
Catholic Church. was one Of the
largest ever seen in the neighborhood.
and gave ample testimony Of the high
esteem in which the young man was
held by all who knew him. Whilst
the body was being laid in the grave,
the sad news reached the already be-
reayed family that Mrs. McGinty, was
also dead. Thus. within two days a
brother and sister were called away.
Much sympathy is felt for the bereav-
ed father, husband and other mem
beers Of the family.

THE FIRE RECORD.

A Shop On Fire-Peril of the Employees.
 ST. LOUIS, April 14.-Shortly after seven o'clock this morning fire was discovered in the building occupied by the Riverside Printing Company, corner of Main and Ol- i've streets. The flames made rapid pro- gress, and before the engines arrived the entire building was ablaze. The fourth story was occupied by H. P. Tittlemer as a shoe factory. On this floor there were 43 persons, IS of whom were girls, and they were unaware of their danger until the flames reached every stairway, cutting off their escape. The fremen placed two fire escapes in position for use, and by this means all were saved. The widest excite ment prevailed and several of tho girls cipal losers are Joseph Garneau, cracker bakers, $5,0o0; the Riverside Printing Company. $1O,0OO H. H.

A Miracle Yorker-Curing the Sick by
 Layrng on Hands.
 WYTHEvnLE, April 14.-Miracles are alleged to have been performed by Richard Miller. He is middle aged man, employed as the keeper of McMullin's mill, near Estill- viile He is deeply religious, and claims to have had dream, that, with Gods help he could perform wonderful cures simply through faith. He says that the next day after the dream, after feryent prayer, he healed sick man by touching him. The afflicted of all kinds came to him and were healed, it is said, by the simple touch of his hand. Yes tsrday G. F. Wertz visited Miller, in con- pany with a paralytic uncle, the seat of paralysis being in the mouth. Miller looked ct the afflicted man, and, after short prayer, touched him and told him that before he reached home he would be well. Last night his hearing and speech came back to him, and to day he is apparently hale and hearty. One of the most wonderful of the alleged miracles of Miller was the cure of MT. Peter White sell, who has been for some years afflicted with cancer. The cancer was touched, and in three days, according to reports, had disap peared. The miracle-worker always indig- nantly declines any compensation for his ser vices, alleging that he is but the humble in strument of God.
