Order Out of Chaos.

CHICAGO, August 22.-The West
ern Union company has this even-
ing evoked a system out of the COLI
fusion precipitated by the destruction
of their main operating room. An
army of line men were employed
throue ehout the day disconnec'iAg
the labyrinth of wires which make
their way into the ruins OF the old
building and connecting them with
the Mutual Union building across
the way. The telegraph company
estimate their loss at not less than
$4,000; no insurance; loss on the
building $4,000. The loss to other
tenants will not exceed $40, 1000;
building insured for $3.50 600. An Or
der has been given for the immediate
reconstruction of a building and in
doing SO architects lave been directed
to plan one of the finest "perat ng
rooms IN the world. All the instru-
ments of the company were saved.
Twenty-Five wires had been connect
ed with the new operating room at

Cars Telescoped.

STRUTHERs, O., Aug. 21.-By the
neglect OF some one who left the
switch at the east end of the Pitts
burg & Lake Erie yard open at Halle
ton, two miles east Of Youngstown,
o., the passenger train of five cars
due at Youngstown from Pittsburg
at II 80 p. m., ran into the rear end Of
a freight train standing on the track,
telescOped the caboose and ploughed
through car of coke, completely de-
molishing both cars and wrecking
the engine Of the passenger train,
which was running at the rate OF
thirty miles an hour. The engineer,
Samuel Rose, reversed the lever and
stood by the throttle and came out Of
the wreck without receiving a
scratch. The fireman, Louis HertZe,
jumped and was badly bruised and
cut about the face, hands and body,
but was not fatally hurt. William
Johnson, express messenger, Cleve-
land, was bruised and the right arm
sprained. Charles A. Walsh, brake
man, was also severely hurt. The
train took fire but was extinguished
with buckets by the passengers.
There were about 100 passengers on

A Terrible Accident.

OwAToNA, Nina, August 12.-
Meagre telegraphic advices were re-
ceived here this morning of terrible
accident that occurred between
Rochester and Zambroa, Minn., on
the Rochester division of the Chicago
and Nevada R. r., by which about
one hundred people were killed and
wounded and the train wrecked. 1t
left Rochester at 4:45, arriving at
Zambroa at p. M. It was caught
in a severe wind and hail storm that
prevailed in that vicinity between 4
and O'clock in the evening, and
while running at high rate of speed
was lifted from the rails. Gentlemen
who have been at the scene of The,
disaster des ,ribed it the most horrible
railroad accident ever seen. Every
car in the train Was completely
wrecked and almost literally shat
tered to pieces by the sudden stop
caused by the train leaving the rails,
burying the unfortunate passengers
beneath the debris, killing many and
injnrIng nearly every person aboard
the train. The gentlemen stated that
nine dead bodies had been taken
from the ruins, and a large number
of those VINO were seriously injured
returned to Rochester and Owatona.
At the time he left the work of extri-
eating the unf0r. unate victims Was
still progressing.

Forest Fires.

BAR HARBoR, August 22.-ln ad-
dition to the forest fires which have
been raging for several days fires
have broken out in new places. The
smoke like a heavy plll envelops
the island and renders respiration diff
ficult. A heavy fire has just broke
out in the forest on the north west
side of Green Mountain. A gang of
men are fighting the flames to keep
them off the railroad. SO many and
such destructive fires are unknown
here for years. A large amount of
valuable timber is doomed to destruc-
ton.
LATER.-Another fire has broken
out on the other side of the mountain,
and from below it looks rs iftae
mountain house on the summit was
surrounded. A heavy rain is the
only hope for extinguishing the
flames,

The Art Of Singing.

1t must have struck every intelli-
gent frequenter Of the concert rooms
to what hopeless strait an entbusias-
tic admirer of any particular singer
is put when asked to give his reasons
for approaching the merits Of his
favorite. The answer, if one is given,
is often ceuched in vague generalities
and in some cases may ne said to
amount to literally nothing at all.
The artist has a clear voice, one is
told a clear enunciation, has per-
formed certain tours de force with
success, and even flor such reasons
have ere this been given) his general
appearance and department are
pleasing. Why should this incapaci-
ty to give a reason tor liking thing
exist? The explanation is clear
enough to those who have turned
their attention to the phenomenon,
and lies in the fact that an audience
taken collectively knows little or
nothing of the art of singing, and
even were the very executant who is
the object OF applause interrogated as
to the cause of his or her success,
in but few cases probably would a
satisfactory explanation be forthcon-
ing, for although he or she may have
received such education in the art as
is usually afforded, that education
does not take into account the fact
that explanation may sometimes be
required. There exists, indeed, no
complete and intelligent system OF
vocal training. Pupils a"e not re-
cured to reason; suffice it if, after
years of toll, by hook or by crook,
rightly or wrongly, they acquire the
power to produce certain effects. 1t
may be pointed out as an extraordin-
ary fact that while singing is the
most widely diffused of all arts, no
art is more in its infancy with regard
to the principles on which it is
taught. | Will not stop to offer an
explanation of t anomaly. A fine
voice will go long way with an un-
critical audience, and there are many
singers, I fear, who set a higher
value on the apparent satisfaction OF
Others than of absolute consciousness
of having satisfied themselves.-Nlne-
ieenth Century.

Western Union Office Partly
Burned.

CHICAGO, Aug. 21-The FIVE story
stone building on the corner OF
LaSalle and Washington streets, oc-
cupied by the Western Union Tele-
graph company, the Union National
Bank, the international Bank, th-
Associated Press, and numerous COM
mission offices, was partly burned
this morning at $50, and made COM
pletely uninhabitable by the streams
Of wa er thrown in the building.
The fire started on the 9TH floor used
as an operating department by the
Western Union, and within twenty
minutes every description of property
upon the floor was ruined. Ten mtn
were on duty at the time beside the
night manager. The fire originated
by the duplex battery wires near the
switch board, and everything was in
blaze IN a moment. " thin five min
utes from the discovery Of the blaze,
the skylights and transoms were
breaking from the heat and dropping
out. The fire department subdued
the blaze quickly, and beyond the
heavy drenching given every portion
Of the building, no special damage
was done to the structure below
The Western Union Immediately be-
gan a removal of its property tn a
building Oh the north side OF Wash
ington street, where is the equip
ment of the Mutual Union company
which will be used in holding a por-
ton of its business. Preparations
were at once made to remove their
business into that structure for the
time being. The market and stock
quotations ceased for time and lit
tie business was transacted on
Change. The loss to the Western
Union may reach $4,000, but it is
thought it will fall below that. The
loss to the building is $4,000. Ow-
ing to the prompt action of the fire
brigade the loss to the banks and
offices was comparatively light. In
surance $4,000.

ST. LOUIS, Aug. 21.-Another one
of those mysterious disappearances.
for which st. Louis has become some
what famous, occurred here on Sun
day evening, and has caused great
grief in several we'll known families.
On Sunday evening Col. James o.
Church, vice president and manager
of the Western Anthracite Coal Co.,
and his wife, went cut for short
drive, leaving at home their daughter
Ma y, about seventeen years old. On
their arrival abont 8 o'clock, the
daughter could not be found, and no
clue to her whereabouts has yet been
discovered. She was last seen stand
ing alone, about o'clock, at the front
gate OF the family residence, at NO.
1887 Morgan street. Detectives have
been working on the case since last
night and every effort has been made
by them and by the father but nothing
yet has been heard from her. She
was quite grave and studious, given
to music, and cared nothing for gen.
tlemen's society. The only theory
thus far advanced is her abduction.
The young lady is described as fol-
lows: About feet 3 inches high,
straight and well developed, light
brown hair and gray blue eyes, oval
face, regular features, and she some
mes wears her hair banged.
