Queer Effects of Electricity.

At $50 Nassau street, New York. the other
night, there was roar Ikea cyclone and a
bright ball of fire was seen blazing in the
doorway. For several minutes the ball of
fire, larger than mans head, burned, szzled
and cracked alongside Of the doorway about
five feet from the sidewalk What made the
fire the more mysterious was the fact that it
appeared to be q section of heavy tin pipe in
full blaze. An investigation showed that
next door to the hat store is tailor shop
where e:ectric lights are used The electric
light wires came in contact with the iron
frame of the awnings and a powerful electric
current at once passed along to the TIN pipe.
There it could go no further and the explo-
sion occurred The tin pipe, which was
struck by the current, was burned for G space

The Oyster Steamer Joshua Bedell Sinks Near the Beach-Other Notes Notes TnteFeRt.

sinks Near the Beach-Other Notes
 Notes of Interest.
 The oyster dredger Joshua Bedell, owned by Barnes & Law, the Oyster Point oyster dealers, sank in two fathoms of water the beach yeSter day. The Bedell had been out dredging for oysters the other side of the new lighthouse all day and
 coming up thei harbor heavily laden at the
 time she sank. Her load was piled up pretty well
 forward. and some think that this caused her bow
 to run under the waves, causing the vessel to fill
 and sink Others however, say that she sprung
 aleak forward, which grew so large as to cause her
 to sink. The Bedel is one of the largest steamers
 in the harbor An effort will probably be made to
 raise her to-day.

A Strong Pressure to Sell-Stocks Un- loaded at a Rapid Gaft-Prices Go Down and Close at Nearly the Lowest of the Day.


 When the stock market opened this morning there was decided pressure to sell some of the leading stocks notably St Paul, Erie, Lake Shore, Louisville & Nashville and Lackawanna. These stocks were unloaded at rapid rate, causing the whole market to weaken and prices went steadily down from the opening until noon. The selling could only be attributed to despatches from the West and other sections of the country bringing further strikes and threatened strikes At 12 o'clock values had recorded declines ranging from A to 2 per cent In some of the specialtes the decline was most marked. Consolidated Gas was the feature of this class of securities, declining sss per cent Nashville & Chattanooga declined 3A, Colorado Coal and St. Paul and Duluth 1. The sales up to noon aggregated 161 900 shares. After midday the market was somewhat flrmer and between the hours of and o'clock prices on some covering recovered L to per cent of the mornings decline. This was almost wholly lost before the close and the final prices were generally within fraction of the low est of the day. Of the specialties Richmond & Danville and West Point were the features the former advancing 318 per cent and the latter lA. The sales for the day aggregated 3o8,539.

If the body receives daily proper amount of nutrition and daily expels the worn-out parts health is the certain consequence; but by a sudden change of weather, the pores of the skin may not perform their office well, and matters are retained which should have passed off by that avenue. All causes which impede insensible precipitation are fraught with danger, because matters which should have passed away through the skin are re- turned again into circulation.
