While performance was in progress at 9

was entirely destroyed. Forty-seven per-

injured.
The performance was given I'm a small
hall over tavern. Ninety men, women
and children composed the audience. A
Bengal light was used to represent fire.
Sparks from this ignited quantity of straw
and fire-wood i'm the adjacent room.
On perceiving the flames the Snowman
shouted fire. but the spectators thought the
cry was merely realistic detail of the show,
and remained seated. Cries of fire were
soon raised outside the hall. The audience,
thinking an affray had arisen in the street,
barred the door leading from the hall. They
did not discover their mistake until the
flames burst into the room. After the fire
had been extinguished, forty-seven charred
corpses were found near the table. including
the bodies of the Snowman and his wife.
The greater number of the remains
are those of women and children. The
wounded were hurt by leaping through win
dows. A child was flung out of window

A Railroad Sued for $50, 600 Damages.

JOLIET, ILL.,, June II.
1t will be remembered that on the first
day of June, 1882, Judge Pillsbury, of Pom
tiac, one Of the Judges of this judicial cir
cult, was the victim of stray shot from the
gun of a rioter. He was leaving Chicago In
the evening about FIVE o'clock, on the Dwight
accommodation, and when at Twenty
third street station, the train was boarded
by gang Of iron-mOlder strikers, expecting
TO find some non-unionists, who they thought
were going out to take their places. A row
occurred on the train, and several shots
were fired, and one OF the bullets took ef-
feet in Judge Pillsbury's groin, infiicting q
severe wound from which he has since suf-
fered intensely, and even yet his recovery Is
uncertain.
On last Saturday he commenced suit
against the Chicago & Alton Railroad Com
pany, laying his damages at $50, 900. He
cls ms that the officers of the train knew
that riot was in progress at Twenty-third
street, and that by stopping the train aud
allowing the men with arms to get aboard
the train, they endangered the lives Of the
passengers. Tile case will doubtless be Wig
orously contested to tho highest court ap.
proachable.

At what time last night the waters began
10 fall no one knows, but when the people
about Nameoki got up this morning they
found that during the night the great lake
in front Of them had gone down seven
inches. Visitors in from the country re-
ported that the water in Big Lake had gone
down foot, and that the backwater from
Venice, which last night threatened to en-
tirely submerge Zimmermann's farm, three
miles southeast Of here, had fallen more
than foot, consequently there was feel-
ing Of great relief here. Those who SUI
fered from the overflow of the wabash
tracks think little Of their loss, as on no
farm are more than four or i've acres
Hooded. All the way down to the breaks a.
Kinder the water has lowered also, so tnat
everywhere in Madison County there has
been decline. The actual number OF
acres now under water in three townships
Of Madison County Is thought to be about
1000 acres and the entire loss is placed at
near 500 700.
