Williams, Marble Works.-Among

"ttshbto <A"fost VVOfnos-ktulOuS
the most prominent and active of
Frostburg industries is located on Main
street at a point in view of every pass
er-by. Its white shafts and tombstones
stand out in vivid contrast with the
surroundings, while the sound of the
hammer and chisel within indicate that
| life and motion exist behind the stony
memorials of death. The operations of
the establishment are carried on by
Messrs. Henry and John B. Williams,
father and son, both of whom are pro-
ticIents in the art of manufacturing.
A review of their stock and work shows
heavy supply on hand, while the
lettering and sculpture are fully
wrought out. The present spring has
opened well for them, many orders
having been filed and many in hand.
The excellence of their work in each
case adds to their popularity and
brings more business. Satisfaction is
the prevailing rule. Besides marble
work they have undertaken the supply
of granite for memorial purposes and
will make of this branch of the bus
mess a specially, so as to suit :he
wishes of all. In fact, nothing is
omitted. Ornamental or substantial
coping and iron fencing will be sup
piled and erected in accordance with
the desires of customers, and in every
thing with view to the most extended
durability. Among the jobs on han1
are monuments for the late j. Wesley
Porter, of this place, and Mrs. H. 7.
Williams and H. II. Robinson, OF
Homecoming. The two former are

careful attention and special effort to
satisfy taste in the selection of monu-
ments, headstones. etc.

Miscellaneous Paragraphs.

For the third time since the beginning OF
the Christian era, four great planets-Jupi-
ter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune-are
about to meet to celebrate their joint peri
helion. The last time this event occurred
was nearly 200 years ago, when the earth
was racked and torn with earthquakes
swept by tornadoes and hurricanes, AID
drenched with floods. An astronomical
crank figures 1t out that 1t was during one
of these planetary reunions that Nosh's
food occurred, and that each recurrence OF
the event has been sigualzed by volcanic
eruptions aud other startling phenomena.
The climax, which is nearly due, will lass
but short time. However, 1t will require
several months to get things settled down
again.
The supreme court of Iowa refused to
grant divorce to a woman with drunken

With reference TO the early life OF Osman
lDisma, the Suakim correspondent Of the
London Times writes that he was originally
a broker and trader, and principally slave
trader, in SuaEim aud Jeddah, where he re-
ceved a severe financial blow when, some
SIX years ago, a British cruiser captured
two slave dhows full of victims on the wAy
to Jeddah. Osman Digma's trade then fell
from bad TO worse, bis house property In
Suakim was all inortgaged, and be became
hopelessly involved. Being of no great dis
Linction by birth, his selection by the Mahdi
TO lead religious rebellion is attributed 70

his lncursions far south for slaves. Doet the

BosroN, March 31.-Pllot Boat Number l.
Captain George Lawler, brought into port this
morning the ship-wrecked crew of the schoon-
or William d. Cargil. The schooner was on
her way from Portland to Boston, loaded With
cargo of lumber, consigned to Curtis & Pope
OF this city. When about six miles to the lee
ward of Cape Ann, yesterday morning, her
cargo shifted, opening the deck. load some six
Or seven inches, and as result her tmbe s
started and the water came pouring in through
the leak. This was at eight o'clock. At i4.ne
o'clock she was full of water, and entirely un-
manageable The crew worked away at the
pumps without Intermission. she drifted
steadily south-southeast, and each wave as it
broke over the deck carried away timber after
timber. Atthat time the storm was at it's
hight and the crew as they struggled away at
their hopeless task were exposed to the pierre
ing attacks of the cold, sharp wind blowing
gale, mingled with flying snow. But they
stuck to their vessel until four o'clock in the
afternoon. At eleven in the morning pilot
boat No. 1 sighted the uncertainties and
promptly sailed to their rescue, but the CAP
tain of the schooner, Hiram E. Fogg of Bucks
port, Maine, was not yet prepared to abandon
his charge. Again, an hour and half later,
the pilot boat drew near. "Haysn't you made
up your mind to leave?" came the cry from the
smaller craft mo, I am going to stick by
her" was tho prompt reply. Back to the city
therefore, went the pilot boat. At A O'Clock
the crew could no longer stand their labors.
They were fIost bitten and chilled through,
all their effects had gone overheard, and what
was left of the cargo was rapidly following
They took to the boat but still lay alongside
the schooner. An hour and half passed and
then pilot boat No. again hove in sight Capt
Lawler coald not stand the idea of leaving
those ship-wrecked sailors to their fate, even
at their own request, and back from the city
he had steered his craft 60 come for the third
time to their aid. This time they yielded, and
came around the pilot boat. Then they were
transferred to the tug C.N. Winch and brought
to Boston. Every one of the sailors speak in
the highest terms of Capt. Lawler, and his
humane treatment in rescuing and in taking
care of them afterwards.
The vessel has drifted ashore near Barnsta-
BILE. She has gone to to pieces and her cargo
is lost.ss Neither vessel nor cargo were insured

after 10 o'clock this morning. At 10 30 O'Clock
the watch at the station reported a vessel
ashore and Immediately got the apparatus out
and proceeded TO the wreck. The beach was
in bad condition. After a long and hard
pull the men reached the beach opposite the
wreck In an almost exhausted condition.
There Capt. Isaac 6. Fisher keeper OF the
Peaked Hill Bars station, performed brave
act which is worthy of some recognition.
When the life saving crew neared the wreck
they conld see woman standing among the
five men on the wreck. To rescue the woman
first was their object, but this was an under
taking attended with considerable danger. By
this time the vessel had broken in two amid

Captain Peter Cummings, of the schooner,
managed to get line into the surf where 1t
could be reached by the life saving crew. A
line from the beach was bent on to this and
sent on board the vessel. Captain Fisher OF
the station then took the line, and rushing in
TO the surf succeeded 10 gaining this mass OF
lumber and then reached the vessel. line

wife, and clasping her tightly in his arms Cap

All the rest of the crew were saved. They tied
