Death Under Peculiar Circumstances.

Washington dispatch says: Dr. Emil
Bessels the well known arctic traveller and
Mime. R;tvenna, the singer, were engaged to
be married. Last Saturday was the date
fixed for the wedding, but the doctor was
suddenly taken i'll, so the wedding was post
poned until last Monday. On Monday,
when the bridal party reached the resi-
dence OF the minister, they met with an
other disappointment, the minister, Rev.
Mr.. Schneider, having unexpectedly gone to
Baltimore. Subsequently all arrangements
were made for the wedding to take place on
Wednesday. Yesterday the expectant
bridegroom drove to the house OF his
bride to take her to the minister's, but
was shocked to learn that she had been
taken suddenly and seriously ill., The
progress of the disease was so rapid that
by night Nine. Ravenna was dead Nine.
Ravenna has had quite a varied ,areer,
and since her arrival in this country she
has been concert singer.

The Largest Financial Institution in Ohio.

The Union Central Life Insurance Co,
Of Cincinnati, is the largest moneyed in
stitution in Ohio 1t was chartered about
twenty years ago by a number of prominent
men Of Cincinnati and Southern Ohio. Or
ganized with paid up capital Gas provided
BY iaw,) of $roo,ooo,oo, it now has assets
Of nearly THREE MILLIo1 DOLLARS.
Since 1867 it has paid to its policy holders
for death losses and otherwise over Three
Million Dollars.
The Union Central has always been very
conservatively managed. Itexercises great
care in the sclectidA of the persons it in
sures, and invests early all of its large as.
sets in first mortgages on reai estate, ,whisS, /,
by the Ohio law, must be worth, exclusive
Of all buildings and improvements, not less
than twice the amount invested. It loans
its money in Ohio, and adjoining States,
and realizes the highest rate Of interest Of
any Company in the land, while its death
losses are the lowest.
1t makes n specially of Endowment
Policies at the ordinary Life rates of other
Companies thus affording protection to a
mans wife and children in case of early
death, and if he lives he receives the full
amount of the Policy himself We arc in
formed that this Company will do over
seven millions Of new business this year,
and that it wants a first-class man in every
township in the State where it is not now

This map gives clear idea OF the terri
tory THROUGH which British soldiers must
Pass to reach Mandalav, the capital. The
empire of Burmah Is 500 miles from north
to south aad 800 miles from west to the ex-
treme eastern portion Of its territory, not
shown in above map.
The original cause of the trouble between
England and Burmah may be cons dered
pretext rather than a cause. 1t arose from
a ademand made upon the Bombay Burmah
extortionate sum Of money over AMI above
the amount stipulated in their forest leases
The company refused to pay it, whereupea
Judgment was entered u3 against it. Il
then appealed for pr otection to the home
government. and request was made
through the viceroy Of India that
the matter should be investigated
by person acquainted with the
question a5 issue, and that the decis-
ion should be left with him. Theebaw
treated the request with contempt, and an
ultimatum was then sent to him making
three demands. First, that commissioner
to investigate the issue between the sin-
and the company should be received with
respect; second, that all further action
against the company should be suspended
pending his decision; and, third, that a
British resident shouli be accepted at the
capital 1heebaw was given until Nov. 10
to make favorable reply The time hav-
ing expired and no satisfactory answer
having been received, the English govern-
m mt has formally declared war. An expe-
on under command Of Gar Prsndergast
" crossed the frontier Of Burmah. This
,rce numbers 10000 men, 1000 camp fol-
overs, sou mules and two eleraant batter
les. The Burmese army numbers about
10, 600 men, but it is sadly deficient in both
cavalry and artillery.

Spelling-schools. AFTER the manner Of
the olden time, are likely TO be FASH

been organized in many places. IL is
not much credit TO be q good speiier,

Wonderful.

From the Pittsburgh Dispatch, Sept. 18th, 1880.
VERY seldom do we read of an actual
case of recovery, where hope had alto
gether been lost, to parallel that which
was Monday investigated by Dispatch
reporter, who had heard in various quar-
ters persons talking to their friends OF
cure, seemingly little short of marvellous.

ia the case referred to, without exaggera-
tion. are these, as they were learned FROM
the mother of the young man, his pastor
and other persons well known in The COM
mgnity:
William Lincoln Curtis is the name
Of the young man in question. He is now
employed at II. K. Porter & Co.'s loco
motive works in Pittsburgh, Pa. A year
ago he resided with his mother on Grant
street About that time he went to bed
one evening with violent pain in his
shoulder, the result, he thought, of cold.
The next morning the shoulder was
greatly swollen, the pain was intense, and
aches were felt all through his system.
His case was speedily developed into a
violent form of chronic rheumatism,
among the first notable features of which
was the paralysis of his left arm.
''lIe gradually grew worse, and in few
months the elbow and knee joints and
both ankles became enormously enlarged
In March last the cheek bones began to
enlarge, ard upon his left side particu-
larly, spreading his face out OF all resem-
blancc to his former self. The pain in all
his Joints became intense; fever, with its

Tho War I'm Burmah.

England has another little war on her
hands This time with King Theebaw, Of
Burmah. By glancing at the map of Asia,
it will be seen that there is a bite out of
British possessions in farther India. This
pisce, which is necessary to round of
British territory, is Burmah. Besides, Eng
lish explorers have found an easy and prac-
tical route for railroad communication be-
tween India and Southwestern Cnina across
the empire of Burmah With the control
of the Irrawaddy and railroad monopoly of
upper Burmah in their hands, the English
will speedily develop magnificent trade
between India and China. besides develop
ing the resources Of Burmah itself. Its
conquest will add about 5000, 600 people

Mr. Freder C.. A. 6iouiman, of Rondout
N. Y. which is intended. be says: First,
to collate AMI forward daily meteorological
observations from fixed stations in the
North Atlantic ocean to the signal service
and weather bureaus Of England and
America, for the benefit of science, com
merce and agriculture second, to aid the
passengers and crews OF wrecked or dis
tressed vessels in mid ocean, by reporting
their condition, extending to them haven
of refuge, and aiding them in many other
ways; third, to report the progress and
condition Of all the ships engaged in trans
atlantic trade, and causing their position
to be almost constantly known; keeping
them fully informed as to the location Of
stray icebergs, icsfoss and other obstacles
to successful navigation.
The plan consists principally of the con
struction Of ten or more circular vessels,
built in a substantial manner, to enable
them TO withstand the onslaughts Of the
heaviest seas, with an upper deck, CONVEX
in shape. from which arises q light iror
