An UnIurky Boat Ride.

On last Sunday afternoon, Mr.. VIM.
Newton, Alex. Raffauf and Misses
Alice Frederick and Maggie Barrette,
were sailing in nicely rugged boat on
the waters of the Marias de st Feriole,
the wind was blowing almost gale at
the time, and when near the stone
causeway, Mr.. Newton desiring to tack
gave the word for all to drop their
heads SO the boom could swing clear,
but one of the young ladies grasped
hold of the yard-arm as it was swing
ing, and the boat Immediately careencd
over on the starboard side precipitating
the occupants into the water. There
were none of the parties but what dis
played great presence of mind, and all
grasped good hold on the boat which
was then dragging the mast and sail
on the bottom of the slough; the water
was fit. deep where the boat capsized,
but drifting slowly toward shore. In
the meantime Mr.. Newton had let him.
self down into the water from the bow,
and in few minutes he found he could
touch bottom with his feet, and then
commenced to pull the boat shoreward
While this was going on, much excite
ment was manifested on the bridge
Harrington's new axe was smashed
cutting skiff chains, and soon skiff was
seen to shoot out with rapidly applied
oars to the scene of The accident, which
contained l.. T. S. Viele, Esq, who on
getting near the capsized boat, immed-
lately took on board Miss Barrette; at
the same time Mr.. Newton assisted
Miss Frederick, and they waded to
shore. In few moments ID. L.
Mathews Or. Morrison in company
came along with his fast sailer. took
both of the ladies aboard and sailed for
the east side of the slough, landed.
when the ladies returned to their homes
for dry clothing, and on the next day,
they were none the worse for their in
promptu bath. Prairie dr. Chen

The Missouri Cyclone.

ST. LOUIS, May 1.-The telegraph
wires are still Frustrated between here,
and the scene of yesterdays cyclone in
Southwest Missouri, and no definite in
formation regarding the storm has yet
been received. In a general way it is
stated that Oronoga was totally des-
troyed and number of persons injured
but not killed. A relief train was
started from Joplin, but it could not
proceed, owing to the railroad track
being covered with fallen timber and it
was obliged to return. Further efforts
are being made to reach the place both
by train and telegraph, and it is be-
ieved that news of the situation there
will soon be received. At Liberty, Mo-,
several houses were destroyed or badly
damaged, and in the country adjacent
several farm houses and other build
ings were blown down, fences des-
troyed, and trees uprooted. Captain
John Thompson was severely hurt and
his horse killed while passing barn
that was blown down. At Missouri
City, on the Missouri river, the steamer
Bright Light was torn from her moor
ings, blown across the river, and lodged
on sand-bar. 1t is not stated whether
she was damaged. Near Pattonsburg.
the storm was severe, leveling several
houses and blowing down trees, fences,
etc. Fragments of houses and pieces OF
clothing were blown into Pattonsburg
from across Grand river, indicating a
good deal of destruction done on the
south side of that stream. At Troy,
Kan, sixteen miles west of St. Joseph
two houses were demolished, but no.

WASHINGTON, May 10.-All doubts as
to Keim getting his commission are at
rest. Mr.. Keim visited the President
this morning and made formal declin-
alton of the chief examinership of the
Civil Service Commission. Immedia-
tely on receiving the withdrawal of Mr..
Keim the President appointed Mr..
Charles Lyman, now chief clerk in the
office of the Treasurer, Treasury De-
partment. He will accept. The APP
pointment of Mr.. Lyman was made on
the recommendation of the civil service
commission. Mr.. Lyman served in the
army during the war. and was appoint
ed to a clerkship in the Second Audi
tors office, Treasury Department, in
1864. He was subsequently, promoted
to be assistant chief of the Stationary
Division, and in 1877 was made chief
clerk of the Treasurer's office. The
position he has since held. He was an
active member of the Board of Civil
Service Examiners under Grants adj
ministration, and did some hard work.
The appointment is generally regarded
as an excellent one.

TUsCoN. A. T.. May 13.-General
Garcia's engagement with the Indians
in Sonora has demonstrated that the
band of renegade Apaches is much
larger than has been heretofore sup
posed. The general idea has been that
it numbered about seyenty-iive Cen
eral Garcia estimates the number of
those on the west side of the Sierra
Madre mountains at from $50 to 200,
and those ON the east side will probably
bring the number up to 800. The
country is very abrupt and difficult of
access, and those who remember the
Modoc war in the lava beds will appre-
ciate the difficulty of the task before
General Crook The Indians cannot be
starved out, for the mountains furnish
plenty of game. Its believed that, in
view of the fact that this precipitous
country is equal in extent to the State
of Ohio, it will require at least sir
months 70 subdue these Apaches.
