EDITORIAL NOTES.

1 The Norwalk Gazette says that Mr P C. 1 Lounsbury is the man whom the Republicans l should nominate for governor, but it has, of 1 course, nothing to say against the Hon. Hen
 " B. Harrison.
 A German engineer has just obtained let ters patent on device for building mine
 shafts and bridge piers upon quicksands 1 His method, says correspondent, is to in | troduce pipes into the quicksands and pump
 through them freezing mixture by which 1 the entire mass of quicksand is frozen solid, 1 when it may be worked through with no ! more difficulty than 8 stratum of rock The members of the committee appointed | in Rochester, New York, to attend the Inde- pendent conference were interviewed with in teresting results. The Rev. A. H. Strong, D. D.. president of the theological seminary, said: ''I am, on principle, believer in free l trade. Robert Craig: ''I think the ultimate tendency is to the principle of free trade D Robert Matthews: 'I believe in the principle of free trade as an ultimate result of revenue reform" Theodore Bacon: 1T was a mem Der of free trade association eighteen years IT. m. l 1eve in the principle of free trade Henry
 G. Booth: 'fI think the majority of men in this Independent movement are advocates of
 the doctrine of free trade.''
 On the first of January of this year the act of the British Parliament which abolished the rule of the commissioners of patents came in force The first report of the comptroller of
 patents, which the new law requires before
 June 1 in each year, has been submitted, and
 though it covers only four months it shows
 that the reduced cost of obtaining patent
 under the new law has acted as a strong
 stimulus. Instead of the usual monthly list
 of about 500 applications from the United Kingdom, there were 2, 800 applications in
 January alone. For the four months includ-
 ed in the report the applications numbered
 700. Nearly three-fourths of these appli- cations, it appears, passed through the hands of agents.
 A remarkable book was sold for e980 in London recently. It is MS. of 157 folio leaves of vellum, written in the fifteenth century, and is a chronicle of the early his tory of Normandy. Nothing can exceed the dc4Cdcy OI Gu0 1Q1u1ACu106 W1Gu which it has been embellished, from the first of them, which represents the arrival of Duke Rollo at Rouen, to the last which rep resents the siege of Chalus, where Richard Coeur de Lion received his death wound from an arrow shot by Bertrand de Gour- don. The series includes the death of Ed ward the Confessor and the coronation of Harold the landing of William the Conquer or, the battle of Hastings, the carrying of Harold's body to Waltham Abbey, the funer- al of William and the coronation of Rufus by Archbishop Lafranc-an executed in the highest style of Burgundian art, and with the minutest attention to every detail of architecture, costume and armor.
 The decision which has just been made by Surrogate Rollins of New York in will case will cause some discussion. John Tilby,

More Precision.

.ToLoNo, ILL.,, Oct. PA woman named
Mary A. Perry and her two grown daughters
Hattie and Sarah, returning from Kansas
camped by the roadside about seven miles
southwest of here Wednesday night Theil
husband and father had died soon after Their
arrival in Kansas few weeks ago, and they
were making their way back to jackson
county, Ind, in covered wagon drawn by
single horse. Some time during the night
they were awakened by a party Of
men, who first made indecent proposals and
then assaulted the women, who were terribly
frightened, and, being entirely helpless, fell
easy victims to their cowardly assa1l-
ants. Mrs. Perry finally tore herself loose
from the men who held her, and
seizing an old navy revolver began firing.
The villains beat a hasty retreat, and
fed into the woods. The women
fear they will not be able to recognize
the men, as the night was dark. They are
believed to be a gang of young
roughs. The woman and her daughters con-
tinued their lonely journey eastward Fri.

much as possible in the locality where it oc.

TERRIFIC GAS EXPLOSION.
Residence Wrecked, and Sever
People injured. One Fatally.

MONTREAL, Oct. 27.-A terrible gas ex-
plosion occurred early Saturday morning at
the residence Of j. r. Hutchins, on Fort
+ street, completely wrecking the house, blow
ing out all the wind ows, and carrying away
the gable end. The furniture and household
effects were thrown into the street in all di
rectiors. and windows in adjoining residences
shattered to pieces ard bricks and debris
carried great distances. The servants,
who were sleeping in the basement
where the explosion occurred suffered
the most severely, two Of them being terri
bly, scorch5d as well as receiving serious and,
in one case, probably fatal injuries: They
were removed to the hospital. Mrs Hutch
ins also was badly scorched about the
face. Her bed was against the gable
which was blown out and she had a
narrow escape. After the explosion the
whole side Of the house was exposed to view.
Subsequent investigation proves that hole
nearly an inch in circumference existed in
tis pipe below the gas-meter But low this
faw occurred is a mystery, unless it was
caused by the plumbers. who were at work in

We have received a fine cabinet photograph
of the cyclone which passed through Miner
county, Dakota, Aug. %, taken at Howard,
D. T. The cyclone, it will be remembered,
was first discovered about 4 o'clock on a
bright afternoon, when, with the exception
of few heavy banks of clouds, the sky was
clear and the sun was shining pleasantly.
Suddenly a monstrous funnel-shaped arm
shot downward from one Of the clouds, and
moment later the cyclone was formed and
was moving slowly across the prairie, carry
ing destruction to everything in its course.
The cyclone remained in sight about two
hours. The photograph is great curiosity,
and, undoubtedly, is the only photograph Of
