Strange Burials OF Military Heroes.

The funerals of military heroes are
always peculiarly impressive. 1t is
said that the conqueror Alaric, after
having captured Rome, died while un-
der march for Sicily. His army buried
their chieftain by turning the River
Businto from its bed, in which his
grave was dug. After placing the King
and his treasures there, the water was
turned upon its former course, this
having been done in order that the
Romans should never find the grave of
their conqueror. The task was per-
formed by the captives taken in war,
who were afterward slain in order
to prevent disclosures of so inn
portant q secret. Atilla, who led
the Huns to many field of
slaughter, reached at last the most
murderous scene ever known In Euro
pean history, which took place near
Chalons, A. ID. 451. This was ATLAS
last battle, and two years afterward he
died in his own capital of apoplexy.
Three coffins were made, as it is said
one being of iron to inclose the corpse;
this was placed In another of silver,
while the outside coffin was of gold.
He was buried at midnight, in secret,
with much treasure, and, as at the fu-
neral of Alaric, the prisoners who dug
the grave were slain. This took place
near Buda, in Hungary. Charlemagne
was buried at AK la Chapelle, where
his throne may be still seen in the
Cathedral. 1t is one of the oldest in
Europe, having stood ten centuries.
Many Years after his death, when the
Cathedral was built, the tomb was
opened, and his body was found seated
on the throne aud clothed in the inn
perial robes. The latter are still pre-
served at Vienna, and are the Oldest
garments in the world Cincinnati

FRIGHrFuL MINE ACCIDENT.
A Gas Explosion in Coal Nine Near
Wilkesbarre, Pa, Kills Eigh-
teen Men.
[WiIkesbarre pa special


The most disastrous mine accident OF
recent years in the anthracite coai fields
occurred day at Macanaqua. on the east
bank of the Susquehanna River, fourteen
miles from this city, and opposite the town
Of Shickshinny. Nearly score of sturdy
miners who left their homes this morning
light Of heart and in the best of spirits are
now cold in death, having been sutfocated
by the deadly gas.
Fifty eight men went TO work in the mine
in the morning. and at half past 8 o'clock
II was discovered that the machinery that
ran the fan that supplies the air was
broken. The fan stopped and the gas ac-
cumulated before the men could be notified
of their peril. A few escaped by their own
efforts, but nearly all were overcome and
met gasping deaths.
Twelve bodies have been recovered. Fol-
lowing are the names of the dead:
James Whalen, aged So; leaves three
children. William Price, aged %; unmar-
ried. Peter Bovastski. aged ~; unmarried.
Anthony Bovastski, brother of Peter b.
vastski, aged %; unmarried. William
Zerkie, aged "a; unmarried. Nicholas
Bertch, As years old: leaves wife and five
children. James Fry, 80 years old; leaves
a wife and two children. John Billy, aged
46; leaves wife and four children. An
thony Borskie, aged "a unmarried. Wilson
Rymer, aged SO; leaves wife and three
children. Anthony N. Yurski; unmarried.
John Broskoski, aged 28.
Thousands of excited people are loiter-
ing about the vicinity of the disaster, and
willing volunteers take turns in going into
the mine TO rescue those who may vet be
alive, and TO remove the bodies of the dead.
Six more dead bodies were discovered at
nine o'clock this evening.
The fans are not yet at work, but an air.
passage has been made through second
opening in the mine, and it is thought that
the rescuers will soon be able to penetrate
further into the slope.
The scenes in the town of Shickshinny
and about the mines are Undesirable. The
friends and relatives of the doomed ones
are gathered by hundreds. Women and
childrenare mourning and weeping. Strong
men shed tears, and the sobs of the be-
reayed wives of those who have been taken
out arc heartrending.
Every train brings hundreds from the
surrounding towns, and it is estimated that
at least thousand people are gathered in
the vicinity of the disaster.
The Salem Coal Company suspended
work at the mines. and all hands are help
ing to recover the bodies in the mines.

In Alaska, in midsummer, according
to al interesting letter, the almost con-
tinuous light of day shines upon bright
green slopes, shaded here and there by
dark timber belts, rising up from the
deep blue waters. An endless variety
of bright-hued flowers, the hum of in
;sects and melodious song of birds,
together with degree of heat dispens-
ed by the solar orb, which, to our thick
.eRed blood, appears oppressive, would
cause a stranger suddenly transplanted
there to think himself in any country

A PROTEST was recently sent to the
Chairman of the Cunard Steamship
Company against the growing abuse of
the smoking-rooms on board tie Gallia
and other steamships by the gambling
practices of some of the passengers,
which those who have signed the pro-
test urge are destructive alike to morals
and the good names of the companies
permitting so gross an evil. This is
made the more Objectionable by the
prominence given to it by the partici-
pators even in the presence of ladies
and young people. The memorialists
trust that the directors of the company
will lend their aid in suppressing this
sdemoralizing practice.

A NEW field-piece is shortly to be in
troduced into the English army. The
guns are 12l-pounder breech-loaders,
and are said to surpass anything yet
produced in accuracy, range, and quick
ness. of loading and firing. The range
is up to about 5000 yards, but the
charge of powder is very large-viz.,
four pounds. The naturally heavy re-
coil is obviated by the carriages being
fitted with brakes. The projectiles are
fitted in the base with Q copper driv-
ing-ring, by which rotation is given to
the shot, thus securing both accuracy
and greater length of range. The
shells are made of cast-steel, the burst
ing charge is one pound twelve ounces,
and the destruction which would result
on firing at earthworks or at troops en-
masse, it is said, would be immense.
Another great advantage of the new
guns is that they are so constructed
they only require to be sponged out at
the close of the days practice. The
experiments with them have been so
successful that it is said the whole of
the Royal Horse Artillery will be armed
with them.

opened the conversation in some such

would hardly do to repeat, of

IT is not generally known, even in
Washington. says a correspondent of
the St. Louis Globe Democrat, that
Gen. Sheridan has been stumping
around on q broken leg. He has man
aged to conceal the injury we'll. The
overturning of his carriage while on
his recent trip to the West caused an
injury of which he did not even know
the real character until his return. The
fracture was one of the bones of the
right leg below the knee, and the dis
covery was made by an army surgeon,
for whom the General sent after he
came back. AS Gen. Sheridan posi-
lively declined TO think of lying up, a
plaster of paris mold was made, in
which his leg was incased. A jacket
was made from this mold, which the
General still wears. He has been
going around constantly all the time,
but, thanks to the jacket, his leg is now
nearly as well as ever. Gen. Sheridan
says he never spent day in bed from
sickness in all his life, so when the
doctor suggested bed to him lie said he
could not think of it, even to save his
1ao,
