Got Their Clothes Mixed.

Mark Twain, in his hook called
"Tramps Abroad" tells how party
Of tourists got wet, and what they did
when they got back to the hotel,
1--WE stripped and went to bed, and
sent our clothes down to be baked ;all tn.
horde of soaked tourists did the same.
The chaos of clothing got mixed in the
kitchen, and there were consequences.
l did not get back the same drawers |
sent down; when our things came at
6.l5, / got pair en- a new plan. There
were merely pair Of long, white, ruff
fled, cuffed sleeves, Mtched together at
the top witha narrow band and they
did not come to my knees. They were
pretty enough but they made me feel
like .w0 people and disconnected at that,
The man must have been all idiot to
get himself up like that to rough it in
the Swiss mountains. The shirt they
brought me was shorter than the draw
ers, and hadn't any sleeves to-at least
it hadn't any more than Mr.. Darwin
could call rudimentary sleeves; these
had edging around them, but the bosom
was ridicuously plain. The knit silk
they brought Inc was almost
on new plan and was really sensible
thing; It was open behind and had pock-
els in it for the shoulder blades; but they
did not seem to fit me and found it
sort Of uncomfortable garment. They
gave my bobtail coat to somebody else
and sent me an ulster suitable for a
giraffe. l had to tie my collar on
because there was no button on the
foolish thing which deserted a little
while ago.

How to Prevent sunstruck.

The following for the prevention OF
sunstroke is taken fr ON a medical Jour.
nal:
ToSavoid sunstroke, exercise in excess
lively hot weather should be very mod
crate; the clothing should be thin and
loose, and an abundance of cold water
should be drank. Workmen and soldiers
should understand that as soon as they
cease to perspire, they are in danger of
sunstroke, and they should Immediate
ly drink water freely and copiously to
afford matter for ,cutaneous transpira-
tion, and also keep the clothing wet
with water. Impending sunstroke may
often be warded off by these simple
measures.
The free use of water, both externally
and internally, by those exposed to the
direct rays OF the sun, is the best pro-
phylactic against sunstroke and laborers
and soldiers, and others who adopt this
measure, washing their hands and faces
as well as drinking copiously OF water
every time that they come within
reach of it, will generally enjoy perfec
immunity from sunstroke. Straw hats
should be worn, ventilated at the top,
and the crown of the hat filled with
wet sponge. 1t Is better to wear thin
flannel shirts, in order not to check the
perspiration. Wemay expose ourselves
for long time in the hot sun, or work
or sleep in heated room, and enjoy
perfect health and immunity from sun
stroke, if we keep our skin and clothing
wet with water.

A sound B0slMesA Situ ~ ION.
From the New York Tribune,

The important fact is that there is no
sign of weakness or unsoundness in the
condition of general business. Alarms
In that quarter are absolutely gratui.
tous and unwarranted. We may have
a large or a small wheat crop this year,
but in either case shall have enough to
send more than 100000, 900 bushels
abroad, while the farmers, after sew
eral years of remarkable prosperity, are
in better position than ever before.
We seem likely to have the largest cot.
ton crop ever grown and this may
prove in some degree unfortunate, for
the foreign markets may not be able to
take more than was exported laat year.
But cotton will keep, it eats nothing.
The thing which particularly irritates
our English frieuds, probably, is that
this country is likely to produce more
and import less iron than it did last
year and that circumstances may be
unfortunate for English iron masters.
But neither that nor any other feature
in the prospects of American Industry
indicates that it is in an unhealthy
condition. Great Britain might well
wish that its industries had before
them so fair a prospect.

Tho Dark and bloody SrOund.

Life in Kentucky is illustrated by
the case Of Dockerel, young bully Of
the Grassy creek region. A year and
a half ago he murdered an inottensive
man named Carr, who had rebuked
him for talking slightly about a girl.
His next victim was Brown, for being
instrumental In disclosing the fact of
his first crime. Cliff then hid himself
during the day and amused himself
by riding the horse of a neighbor named
Greer during the night. Greer COM
planned Of this to Cliffs father, and
the next night Greer was called out of
his house by Cliff who informed him
that he was to die Immediately Greer
begged for mercy, but got the first shot,
and killed Cliff instead of being killed.
Public opinion sustained Greer but
Cliffs father resolved to continue the
tend by killing Greer. For six months
Greer kept out of danger by never
leaving his house. At last he ventured
into his corntield, and was shot by
Cliffs father from an ambush. All
these crimes were committed without
the interference of the authorities and
now if the old man Dockerel is punish
ed it will be by lynchers.

A Parade WOund's Result,

Among those who participated in the
parade here last fall was Thomas Nor.
ris of West Chester. He now works
for Nathan Hayes of that place. One
nightas the processionwas moving along
the streets a large number of colored
men and women were attacked by a
gang of roughs. Among those attacked
was Tommy" Morris who received
two shots in the index finger of the left
hand near the palm, one of which was
squeezed out, but the other was more
obstinate and remained in his hand I'M
til yesterday, when one of the bullets
which had entered the inside of the
finger had during that time worked
itself around to the opposite side and
finally lodged in the top of the second
joint. Tommy had suffered no incon-
venience from the bullet until yesterday
when it began to give him great deal
OF pain, and. he concluded to call
ia the aid of a physician. DR.. w. d.
Hartman was called upon who soon ex-
tracted the bullet which was quite rag
ged at the large end. When taken out
it afforded '"rommy" considerable re-
lief. The bullet is carefully preserved
by him as a memento of the memorable
occurrence in which he received the
wound.

About Decatur Street.

For the REPUBLICAN,.
l took a walk to-day down through
Greeleytown eighth Ward) and was
surprised to find that Decatur street
only run half way through, after all the
trouble the City had a few years ago to
get Mr.. Calvin Taggart Of Philadelphia
to give the City deed of said street
through to the Railroad. In my opinion
it ought to be finished. There are no
less than thirty houses the waste and
otfal Of which are thrown upon that
street. Besides this the drainage from
Taylor street, lodges half way. If the
Opening Street Committee would con-
tnue said street through to the railroad,
the Board of Health would be saved
much trouble. Why don't property
owners petition Council.

A Nitro.GIycerine Horror.

Bradford (Pa.) dispatch gives the fol.
lowing particulars of the recent explosion
near that place:
This morning, at $50, one of those hor-
rors peculiar and frequent in the oil regions
occurred at Jane Schoonoyer's we'll, on the
outskirts Of Sawyer City, village six miles
east OF Bradford. 1t surpasses all others,
however, in loss of life-four persons being
instantly killed, one fatally injured and two
others seriously. At the time mentioned,
the agent of the Roberts Company was pre-
pairing to torpedo the we'll with eighteen
quarts Of nitro glycerine. The fact
OF the torpedoing was known in the
village, and number OF men
and children gathered through curiosity to
witness the operation. Charles eust, the
shooter, had adjusted the torrsuo shell in
the hole and filled the sinai tubular orifce
In the she'll with an explosive compound.
Into this orifice slender iron rod passes,
forming what is called ''firing head"
In placing the iron rod it met with some OBJ
struction, and Rust struck it on the end with
his open hand. Instantly an explosion fol-
lowed. Two cans of nitro-glycerne stand
ing on the derrick floor added to the force
OF the shock. The report was very heavy,
being heard distance of seven miles.
Rust was hurled from the derrick dis
lance OF three hundred feet. his head and
limbs being torn from the body, and liter
ally scattered about in the form of mince-
meat.
Charles Krouse, who was standing at the
derrick as spectator, was thrown twenty
feet and instantly killed, his head being
shockingly cut, his face peeled, his arm
and leg broken, and his body being perfo-
rated in the breast by piece Of metal.
James Thrashier, also spectator on the
minutes. His entire body was mangled and
burned.
William Bunton. an observer, was thrown
twenty feet, and his skull crushed. He lived
ten minutes.
A twelve-year- old boy named Fred Stat
terry, standing forty feet away, was struck in
the abdomen, causing the intestines to pro-
trude. The lad ran some distance and fell
into his mothers arms, she residing not far
distant from the well. Physicians say the
boy will die before midnight
A boy named Nevin Hastings had his arm
broken, leg terribly cut, face burned and
hearing destroyed. Atpresent it is thought
he may recover.
A piece of iron perforated completely the
hand Of Edward Wilson, an employe OF the
United Pipe Line.
Several other persons were thrown to the
ground by the conclusion, but none OF them
were seriously injured.
The shock was plainly felt in Bradford.
The derrick, engine, boiler and wheel house
were torn into thousand pieces and the
earth torn up in the vicinity. Every house
in Sawyer was shaken and the windows
broken.
