A Rem srEaoIo Mirage.

Just before the rain of Sunday, October
10, when the clouds hung low on the
Sierra Msdre, and the air was heavily
charged with vapor, there was rare sight
in Crescent, Canada. The Sierras were
hidden from view and the upper side of
La Canada, by the refraetion Of light,
seemed lifted up about Q, 900 feet, occupy
ing the topmost height of the mountains.
The ranch Of Col, T. s Hall was most
conspicuously exalted. His eucalyptus
trees appeared to be In the very skies,
while his pei9 bbors along the upper mesa
were also elevated to q strange, weird and
fantastic height The spectacle continued
for nearly two hours, when IL slowly faded
away, and the landscape settled down
again apparently about 5000 feet to it's
normal condition. The sight was rare aud
of absorbing interest TO oil who bebeld it.
II is not often that the retraotion of light
is 30 intense in it's manifestation as ia this
case, and tho occasion is deserving of
more than passing notice. In horizon
tai distanoe of two and enc hall miles
there was q manifested elevation of moro
than nile. To one fam lar with the
features OF tic country the sight was es-
peoally inter suing.

A STEAM ER On FIRE.
Exciting scenes on the East River-snippin
kuOauReFed


Flames Lit mp the East river, New York,
Monday evening about nine O'Clock In the
vicinity of Pier No. 10. The steamship
Ramon de Herrera, Captain Urinbosca, OF
the Spanish. American line, was on fire,
and for time the shed and dock OF the
Bristol line steamers and the vessels lying
near were in great peril. w. A. Potter
clerk, was In his Office at the head of the
dock, when he heard the bell of the steam
ship ring, aud on discovering that she was
atre he notified Officer Moran, of the First
precinct, who gave the alarm. This was
speedily followed by two others and as
quickly answered. Fifteen lines OF hose
we're soon pouring water on the flames,
which had burst out between decks and
spread to the forward part of the vessel,
where tho cargo WAS mostly stored. The
lire boat Havemeyer ran alongside and
rendered needed assistance, aud the
zophar Mills was also on hand in case she
was wanted.
The flames ate their way through the
upper deck in trice and leaped we'll up
the mast outlining objects on the river
with the distinctness to daylight. Those
members of the crew who were aboard
hurried ashore almost frightened out Of
their senses, and huddling in q group on
the edge of the river jsbbered in Spanish
about the disaster. LiAes OF hose were
drawn over the shed OF the Bristol line aud
under 1t, and after ripping out planks in
the vessel 30 as TO reach the flames, the
firemen succeeded in getting them under
control after an hours hard work. The
fire was difficult one to handle, as it was
| next to impossible at fist to obtain a
good vantage ground from which to fight
IL.
The vessel Ia named after her owner,
who lives In Havana. She Ia bark rugged,
with an iron hull, and has been running
from that port to this city for six months
past. His agents are j. De Rivera g. 90,
OF No, lit Pearl street, and abe carries
freight and passengers. The vessel
arrived on Thurhday last. and was to sail
Tomorrow with tobacco, sugar and q
general miscellaneous cargo. Her crew
consists of fifty eight men, and this was
her twelfth voyage to New York. The
damage to the freight was placed at about
$4,000 aud to the vessel about t10, 900.

The COlIapse of Ilutiar.

The utter collapse of the Butler boom
is one OF the most noticeable outcomes
OF the exciting election that has Just
come to close. 1t was recognized from
the moment that he entered the canvass
that he was conducting q political side
show for the benefit of the Republican
presidential candidate. The workingmen
TO whom he appealed recognized him as
the champion demagogue Of the day
and though they read his speeches and
went to hear him talk, they never seri-
ously considered the contingency OF
yCting for him. He has been In rather
unpleasant situation between the upper
and neither grindstones Of the party, and
the close of the canvass leaves him In
the position of the ass who carried
Balaam.
II is eminently fitting that this should
De the case. He has during his
checkered political career proved him
. 'lfthe most INSCRIPTIONS of tricksters i,
who would masquerade In the garb of
any party for his own purposes. He Ia
everything by turns and nothing
long" and he has depended on the lack
Of political discrimination on the part
OF the people In his efforts to humbuR
them. But they have taken
his measure very accurately.

ONE of the most satisfying fea-
