that the request was timely, and that the

Oh leaving him years ago, said she thought

a BROKEN rail wrecked train on the
Peoria, Decatur and Evansville road near
Lincoln, ILL.,, two coaches being thrown
on their sides. Four persons received sIi :. ht
injuries.
Two children of John Coons, of Stanton,
Mich, having been locked in the house,
evidently exploded can of kerosene, and
were roasted to death. The father burst
in the door, but the flames drove him
back.
THE weather on the Atlantic ocean con-
tinues to be frightfully rough. The
steamer Nederland. which arrived at New
York the other day, had not a vestige of
her bulwarks, and the iron stanchions
were bent and twisted. Four small boats
were wrenched from their fastenings and
lost. The wheel-house was broken in, and
the screw steering gear broken to pieces.
The extensive manufactory of the Lock
stitch Wire-fence Company, at Joliet, was
partially destroyed by fire recently. The
tire originated in the dip-room, the naptha
being ignited by a spark from safety
lamp carried by an officer of the company.
The fire spread SO rapidly that the work
men had difficulty In escaping, some los
ing their clothing. The loss is estimated
at $1,000 on stock and building, and is
fully covered by insurance.
A STRANGE accident happened to an out
ward-bound train on the New York and
New England railroad Shortly Befole
reaching the Mount Bowdoin station the
door of the engine furnace buIot open,
and mass of flames came rushing out
and set the cab on fire. The engineer and
fireman were driven from their posts, an
the former was terribly burned in trying
to grain control of the engine. Before he
could do it, however, the train had dashed
furiously past the station, and was not
brought to a stand-still until half way to
the next station. No one was in iured ex-
cept the engineer, Mr.. Kent, who was ta-
ken 10 the city hospital for treatment.
The accident was caused by the clogging
of the flues.

Six Hundred Victims of Whisky

The COrWin landed on st. Lawrence
Island, having orders to investigate the
wholesale starvation of the natives. At
the first village at which they landed all
were dead so, also, at the second,
where ffty-four dead bodies were
counted, nearly all full grown males.
At another place one hundred and fifty
persons-men, women and children
were dead. At the next settlement
twelve dead bodies, and at the follow
ing thirty were found. All the inhabi-
tants on the north side of the island,
where whisky traders sold liquor, were
dead-not one escaping. The general
starvation occurred two years ago last
winter. Since then the presence of the
Corwin in the Arctic has broken up this
inhuman whisky trading. The empty
whisky kegs were strewn all about. The
total number of dead bodies found on
st. Lawrence Island was over six hun
dred. The survivors say that the white
traders from Honolulu sold whisky,
which the natives bought and got
drunk, remaining so during the season
for laying in their winter supply of wal
rus and seal. Photographs of these
dead bodies as they lie about, frozen
stiff, were taken by th5 party.-AHa
