WASHINGTON.
Miscellaneous News from the
National Capital.

WASHINGTON, September l2.-At7 O'Clock
last evening an attempt was made to kill
Gulteau in his cell. At that hour battery b,
Second Artillery, was relieving Captain
Grapes command, which had been on duty
at the Jail the previous twenty-four hours.
The battery arrived in their wagons, in
the first wagon of which was seated First
Sergeant Mason. As the wagon drew up i'll
front of the jail, Mason jumped out,
threw his cape aside and with musket on
his shoulder proceeded to the right wing of
the jail. A few seconds brought him
abreast of the window through which Gui-
teau had been often seen. Putting his gun
to his shoulder the clear report which rang
through the jail told the story of
his intention and act. The ball
grazed Guiteau's head and penetrated his
coat which was hanging on the side of the
cell. Sergeant Mason surrendered himself
to his commanding officer, Captain Nc
Gelveay, who immediately put him IN
der arrest. Mason is n native of Virginia,
and has been nineteen years in the service.
He-says he shot for the purpose of killing
Guiteau and is sorry he missed him. He
says he had become tired of riding over
cobble-stons to jail every day to guard the
life of such cur as Guiteau, SO he made
up his mind to kill him he took his gun
before he left the arsenal and as soon as he
reached the Jail, went to the window where
Guiteau usually stands waiting and gaping
for the arrival of the guard; that he fired,
and that is all there is about it. Guiteau
was overcome with fear and he pleaded for
his removal to another part of the building.
His request will probably be granted

THE MICHIGAN SUFFERERS
Call on the American People for
Relief.

CINcINNATI, September 1.-The follow
ing appeal has been tele9raphed from Port
Huron:
PORT Huron, Mich, September 1l.-To
the American people: We have tonight
returned from the burnt district of Huron
and Sanilac counties. We have seen burnt,
dishgured and wreathing bodies of men,
women and children. Rough board coffins
contained the dead, followed to the grave
by few blinded, despairing relatives, and
crowds of half starved people at some of
the stations asking for bread for their fami-
lies and neighbors. We hear OF more than
two hundred victims already burned, and
more charred and bloated bodies are daily
discovered. Already more than 1900 fami-
lies are found to be utterly destitute and
houseless They huddle in barns,
in school houses, and in their
neighbors houses scorched blinded and
hopeless. Some still wander half crazed
around the ruins of their habitations, vainly
seeking their dead, some in speechless
agony, wringing their hands and refusing to
be comforted More than 10, 900 people
who only week ago occupied happy, COM
Portable homes. are to-day houseless and
homeless sufferers. They are hungry and
almost naked when found, and in such num-
bers and so widely scattered that our best
effort and greatest resources fail to supply
their immediate wants Without speedy
aid many will suffer and become exiies.
Our people will do their utmost for their
relief, but all our resources would fail to
meet their necessities. We appeal to the
charity and generosity of the American peo-
PIE. Send help without delay.

Another Steamer Lost.

WAsHINGToN, September 12.-The sig nal
corps station at Detroit. Mich, reports as
follows: The Frankfort reports that the
propeller Columbia foundered off Frankfort
at 6 p. m. Sept. 10th. Seven of the crew
were saved. The rest, it is feared, are lost.
CHICAGO, Sept IA special dispatch
from Frankfort, Mich, little port on Lake
Michigan, 80 miles above Traverse City, an
nounces the wreck, yesterday morning, of
the steamer Columbia of the Northeastern
line, involving loss of $1,000. The fine
vessel was caught in gale of Saturday
night and 50 badley handled by the sea that
the cargo shipped. This occurred about a
quarter to eleven o'clock in the morning,
and the steamer foated only about fifteen
minutes, allowing barely sufficient time to
launch the boats. The passengers and crew
succeeded in getting away in the small boats
just as the steamer sank in deep water. A
heavy sea was running and the boats were
swamped. The one containing the captain
and the engineer was swamped almost be
fore it got clear of the vessel.

FIRST EDITION.
l1.3o P. n.

WE have received the first number
of the Kingston Cyclone, John J.
Littleton editor and proprietor. 1t
is very racy journal as will be seen
by the following closing paragraph
of the salutatory:
A few words personal to ourse1'
We. like most other great men,
were born early in life, amid the
mountain crags, where the roar OF
cataracts, the stentor voice OF
the hoot owl, the charming melody
of the whippoorwill and the soft
musical accents of the katydid,
filled us chuck full of natural
philosophy From earliest boyhood
an intuitive dislike for fields, hoes
and plow-haudles inspired US with
the belief that we were created for
some noble purpose, and upon the
theory that everything and every
body is good for something, we have
every reason to believe that ours by
nature IS the field of journalism-as
we amt worth solitary darn at any
thing else.
In conclusion, we ask our friends
everywhere to aid in building up the
Cyclone, and thereby encourage an
enterprise whose mission it is to
raise the sick, give feet to the lame,
eyes to the blind, health to It's friends
and hill to its enemies.
P. S-Our readers will please
pardon the brevity of our salutatory,
as we didn't wish to lose any time in
the preparation of valedictory.
