Death Of OrvilIe Grant.

Mr.. Orville Grant, who was the sole
surviving brother OF ex-President Grant,
and who for some time past has been an
inmate OF the State Asylum for the In
sane at Morris Plains, died on Friday.
Mr.. Grant was engaged In the hide,
leather and saddlery business,in Galena,
Tor some years, aud had the reputation
OF being capital business man. When
he left Galena to engage In business in
Chicago his fortune was large. The great
fire, however, destroyed the whole OF
his stock and left hiln almost without
funds. This disaster preyed upon bis
mind, and 1t is likely that he never re-
covered from the shock and that he lost
his reason through the calamity. 1t was
supposed that be made much money
from government contracts during the
time his brother was President, but his
relatives always denied that he recovered
his fortune after the Chicago fire. His
remains were taken TO Elizabeth for in
terment.
Mr.. Grant will be remembered as the
gentleman who came 10 Delaware few
years ago to contract for ship timber for
the Navy. His success here seemed not
to be remunerative although it was sug-
gested that he was to receive special
rates from the then Secretary OF the
Navy.

The Lightning Catastrophe.
GHARIEsToN- Il. C.. Aupust z. l0o


Further details of the catastrophe BY
tightening in Darlington county show
that the party, consisting oftwenty white
men Who had been ut work on the public
highway, stopped upJer an oak TO rest
and shelter the mselves from the sun.
CLOUDS were visiols at distance and
rain was falling some miles away, but in
that immediate locality the sun was
shining, the sky was clear, and nothing
indicated the presence of electricity.
One OF their number had stepped OF
few yards for water, when suddenly .
terrific crash startled him, and, turning,
he beheld lis mpanioDs, some dead,
some completely paral, zsd and Others
wounded ard struggling IN the throes OF
death. j. M. MaziBgo, Rufus Maxingo,
Willie Waters and John B. datlin were
killed outright. These were all young
men, and recently married. Twelve
others were struck and more Or less
stunned and mutiIated, some Of them
being seriously If not fatally Injured.
After the clouds had gathered, an hour
later, there was q heavy fall Of rain.
All around the tree lay scattered the toOls
with which the men had been working
on the road, and it is possible that these
may have attracted tho electricity.

terrible to look upon.

THE TAX ON CIGARETTEs.-A letter
"a the New Yo.k Herald in regard to the
tax ON cigarettes says:-"A better grade
of cigarettes, on which the tax Is SO per
1000. was patronised to III. extent OF
QooO only giving revenue OF but S54."
0ur government does not affix the tax
IN cigarettes according to quality or
ale, but in accordance with liked
weight per 1000, the standard being
three pounds. All cigarettes 10 excess
ofthis prescribed weight OF three pounds
ne, 1000 come under the cigar tax of 10
without regard to quality. Taere are
several brands of cigarettes which over
run the three ponnls to the 1000, which
sre taxed at Tue cigar rate Of SO. Hencs
vol " III perceive that the quality of the
cigarette bus nothing to do with the rate
of tax.

A Fright full and Fatal Accident in
West Chester.

One the most horrible accidents that
has ey.r occurred in West Chester
happened at the foindry and machine
shops OF Philip NJ. Sharpless, On Walnut
street, on Thursday afternoon, when
I.aac E,bip, Who WAS employed In the
mill, was almost instantly killed. BE
had been working alone filling the cast
ing cleaner, and this done, he proceeded
to adjast the belt between the cleaner
and the main shaft, when latter was re-
yolying at the rate OF 150 revolutions a
minute. As this was an unusual task
for him, and he had been warned not to
try 1t, his clothing was caught by the
belt, and Instantly he was whlrling round
with The velocity of the shaft. His
scream, as he felt himself going, alarmed
the other workmen in the mill, who also
heard the unusual noise made by his
head striking the floor, aud they rushed
to the spot, the engineer having shut of
the steam and stopped the engine. The
scene that was presented TO the eyes of
those who were earliest on the spot was
a most horrible one-that Of man be-
ing rapidly whirled around while his
head was striking the floor SO violently
that the boards were Knocked loose. So
tightly was the body wrapped to the
shalt by the belt that the latter had to
be cut to release him. Life was extinct
when he was cut down and the surgeons
who ware soon at hand could DO moth
ing. The body was then taken to the
undertaking rooms of j. B. Smith aud
dres sed before sent t. the unfortunate
man Is house ON West Chestnut street,
where a young and delicate wife awaited
It's coming with broken heart. The de-
ceased was about twentys tour years OF
age and had been married but a short
time, He is son OF Isaac Esbin, a pot

KILLED BY A WOMAN.
A Young SuitOr Stricken Dead by
His Sweetheart.

PHILADELPHIA. August IA murder,
having all the elements OF premediation
and m lice, was committed last eve ming
at No. 1905 North Broad street, the VIC
Tim being Amos Keto, a resident OF Cape
May, Nj. From what could be- cleaned
of the tragedy, at late hour last evening,
1t appears that the victim arrived in this
city late In the afternoon, and, after
wandering about the river font, startt d
tor No. 10U6 North Broad street, the resi-
dencr of Mr.. Walter French. Mics Min
ME French, daughter of Mr.. French,
was seated en- the steps, nd, using her
own language, "Amos Keto, WHO had
called several times on her when at Cape
May, began sbuzzing' her and taking
liberties" which she resented. Keto
evid, ntly took the threat in jest, and be-
gan singing. Evidently annoyed, Miss
French made u oeauly assault upon her
tormentor, striking him uead to the
ground.
After washing the blood from hei
hands she cooiiy went to her room and
retired The Coroner was notified, and
a jury being inpann. lied verdict oi
justifiable homicide was returned. Miss
French refused to be- interviewed, aud
evidently thinks she has done noble
act in ,idding The community OF such a
worth less fellow.

Constables at McKeespoit arrested two
men day near Deadman's Hollow who
are thought 10 be the leaders of the gang
OF the desperadoes who murdered MIC
Clure. They gave their names as "Shor-
ty" and "Reddy," and the former is
thought to be e leader OF the gang.
He begged piteously that his mother
should not be told OF his arrest. He says
he is the man who has been spoken Of
In the papers, but he would say nothing
more. An immense crowd has gathered
a ound the Jail aud threats are being
made of lynching tie men as soon as 1t
can be definitely .ettled that they are
the persons who committed the crime.
The detectives thi, k they are the men
whom they were after. Some people
think it is merely ruse 10 allow the

In connection with the report, tho
folio wing abstract from the report of
DR.. Howard Ogle, smallpox hospital
physician, for the three months ended
July 81, 1881, is appended No. of
white adults admitted, 80; black
adults, 70 white minors, 8; black
minors, As; total admissions, 15S.-
Deaths-White adults, @; black
adults, 10; white minors, q; black
minors, o; total, 81. The death rate
is about per cent, but the above ng-
ures show that the death rate was
greater with the white patients than
with the blacks, though the experience
in the treatment of smallpox has
shown the contrary.
From the official record of the Sec
retary of the Board of Health, it ap.
pears that the total number of cases
reported during the same three months
was 238; number of deaths, 68. OF
these cases, 1853 were treated at the
hospital, where only 81 deaths, oc-
CURED, leaving 80 people who were
treated at their homes, of whom 39
died. This Is a death rate Of nearly
90 per cent, against rate of only IL
per cent. at the smallpox hospital.
