Electric Lights on the Hudson.

But short time ago the electric light
was an invention nowhere in use on the
Hudson, but to those who now sail up
and down the river, the electric lights
at Newburg and Poughkeepsie have be-
come familiar objects. The first cleo
trio light made use of on the Hudson
was by the Pennsylvania Coal Company
at Newburg, who have for several years
past made use of FIVE in the summer
months. Their lights have become very
familiar and useful to the pilots. for
their glare lights up the whole river.
There are also several large manufac-
tories in Newburg that make use of the
light. The upper furnace at Poughkeep-
sic makes use of two one of these, hav-
ing the wall of the building for a reflec-
tor, sends out a magnificent light over
the river. Electric lights are now in
general use at Hudson, complete sys-

Health in Mexico.

Distance lends enchantment to the eli
mate of Mexico. People sicken and die
about as commonly as elsewhere. Ac-
cording to one of the leading doctors
the prevailing diseases among foreign
residents are intermittent fevers, pneu,
monia, and kindred troubles. Those
who are confined by their occupations
to Central Mexico are particularly sub.
ject to typhus fevers. The rarefed air
also effects nervous people unfavorably
aggravating their complaints. Sufferers
from tubercular consumption on the
other hand, are often greatly benefited
here. Almost every visitor suffers
more or less on his arrival, from indi-
gestlon, headache, lassitude and the
like, but in most cases these disagree 9.
able sensations wear off, although some
persons find the climate too trying.
Those who attempt to do an energetic

nor body can be forced With safety, as

to their cost.-Correspondence New

An ApDalliup Panic.

A terrible calamity, involving the death
of LIS children; occurred in Sunderland,
county of Durham, Saturday. From
details received it appears that ar entertain
ment was given at Victoria ball by con-
jurer, attended almost altogether by chill
drer, several thousand being in attendance.
The accident occurred at the close of the
performance. The body of the hall had
been entirely cleared or occupants, when
some ,29O of the little ones came rushing
down stairs from the gallery. At the
top of the first fight of stairs was door
which opened only twenty inches, and thus
but one child was permitted TO pass through
at a time. AT this poi.t, while the mass
of children were pushing 70. ward, one Of
them fell and was unable TO rise, owing to
the others crowding. No effort could stop
the mad fury of the frightened children.
They came on pell nell, though strangely
without much shouting, and soon lis chill
dren were knocked down and suffocated to
death by others trampling upon them. The
mangled from trampling. laid seven or
eight deep. Many victims and Others who
were not killed had their
clothing torn from their bodies,
and this together with the bleeding bodies
of the untortuna1es, shows the terrible ma
ture of the struggle. The ages of the It's
children ranged from four to fourteen years.
The excitement in town, when the news
spread, was terrific. Great crowds rushed
to the scene until 30, 0OO persons surround
ed the hall The feeling was so intense that
the authorities ordered out the Sixty eight
+, infantry to preserve order. The work of
| getting out bodies began Immediately.
They were laid out in the halls. The
| parents of those killed were admitted to
| identify the bodies of their children. Most
| heartrending scenes transpireu while iden-
! t:fcation was i'll progress.

said Broadway florist to reporter for the
Mail and Express, who had made certain
inquiries concerning Wildes effect on the
floral trade.
But don't you ever get any large orders
for sunfowers?"
Nothing to speak of. You see they are
very dear, costing as high as $1.50 each,
and it looks like having the Oscar fever too
bad to use them for decorative purposes.
There Is lady in Fifth avenue, however,
who used them at what was called me-
dieval party the other evening. Things must
have been intense. Oscar Wilde was not
present-he was off lecturing somewhere.
The guests carried lilies of the valley at 81
per bunch; the sunfo Sers smiled in all
their beauty, and the young men wore bangs,
while Kate Greenway's colors and styles
were reproduced in the ladies' costumes.
The sunfowers and lilies must have cost
the hostess 800. The sunfower will be
worth twenty five cents in about week, /"

Damage on the Lower Rivers.

The June rise is threatening great damage
along the Missouri and Mississippi rivers.
At Alton, ILL.,, the two streams are within
fifteen inches of the unusually high water
of 1881, when a vast amount of damage was
done to faa mers and TO railro ads. Thous-
ands of acres OF corn and other grain are
under water, and every railroad entering
st. Louis from the East is threatened with
blockade. Near Memphis the river is cut
ting new channel, which may do great in

have oyerfowed their banks, doing incal-
culable damage to crops. live stock and
railroads. The st. Joe s. Western road and
the Missouri Pacific are under water for
miles, and have suffered numerous wash
outs. Several of the railroads have sus-
