From an elaborate special to the Jack

following:
KEY WEST, March 30.-To-night more des-
olate city than this Can hardly be found under
the blue dome of Heaven. A terrible holocaust
has swept the city, leaving CHASTITY and bare like
skeleton forms, the ruins of many ersiwhile
hundreds of people out into the streets, with
vOured by the flames.
There has not been such loss of property and
desolalion recorded in the State of Florida since
its formation very light estimate of our loss
in the fiery elements is over 90 100000, and this
is shared by private business firms, by individ
uals, by families, as well as by the United States
Government. The latter loses many valu; BILE
buildings, papers, property, as we'll as bonded
goods, such as leaf tobacco. In the bonded ware
house 100000 worth Of leaf tobacco was con-
sumed.
The origin of the fire has been variously &C
COUNTED for, but the true cause is unknown.
THE VERY LATEST.
KEY WEST, March 80, Z p M-The flames
have been entirely subdued. The United States
custom house and the United States naval de-
pot are saved. The total loss of property is es-
tmaied at two million and half Several fire.

ally injured by falling timbers. The city
presents a mOurnfu appearance 10. night aud
there is every indication that great suffering to
those whose homes were destroyed will follow
this crushing event. 1t will take days to fully
ascertain losses of firms or individuals.

The use OF the Suez Canal in moving
the tea crop from China to America is
rapidly being abandoned for the swifter
means afforded by our transcontinental
railways. In 1884 the bulk of the ship.
ments were via the Suez Canal. In 1855
the shipments by that route to America
were but 1854, 1877 pounds, while San
Francisco received H. 96, 1877 pounds.
This year the imports by way Of San
Francisco have reached 20. 525, $50
pounds, while those via the Suez Canal
have fallen off to 1892, 40 pounds. From
Yokohama to New York by the canal
takes sixty days, by San Francisco forty.
nine days. Insurance and freight charges
ore diminished, and the tea being fresher,
is said to be better when brought by the
latter route.

SUNDAY. OCTOBER 10. 1885.
SKIES.

October, like September, gives the
moon the first place in the celestial
panorama. The moon is already past
her third quarter, and will be full late
on the evening of the 18th Of the month.
She does not linger, as she did last
month, rising for almost a week at nearly
the same time. The only lingering is
from the 18th to the 18th, when her
time for rising is only a little over half
an hour later every evening.
After the middle of the month the
moon will be out of the way, and the
stars, no longer eclipsed by her superior
b%rilliancy, will have a chance to show
themselves. The planets have not yet
returned from their vacation and are in
visible in the early evening. Mars and
Jupiter are both so close to the sun
that they are lost in the twilight, and
Venus is the morning star, rising now at
an hour-about 4 o'clock-when nobody
is likely to be out of doors to look at her.
There are various ~conjunctions and
other astronomical events during the
month, but they are of interest only to
astronomers, being invisible to the ordi-
nary observer. and nearly all occurring in
broad daylight, when nobody can see
them. Jupiter and Venus will be in
conjunction on the 22d, and will rise
that morning an hour before sunrise,
pretty close together, so that a sharp
eyed observer will be sure to find them.
The fixed stars, so called, make up for
the poor display of the planets. Arcturus
is still visible in the western sky, but
Spica has disappeared. Vegas serene
light shows almost overhead early in the
evening. The Milky Way is in the
zenith, with all it's attendant constella'
tions-Cassiopeia's Chair, Jobs Coffin,
the Swan and the Eagle. The PleiadeS
climb above the northeastern horizon
soon after sunset, and before 10 O'Clock
Hyades also are plainly visible; and 6
little later in the month, Procyon, Castor
and Pollux, and finally great Orion, with
oil his gems, will come into view.

DEEP MINING.
Government Aid To be Invoked TO
Send the Combination Shaft Down
to the 5000 Level.

Government Aid TO be Invoked to
send the Combination Shaft Down
to the 5000 Level.
Says the Virginia Chronicles: A gentle
man from San Francisco states that an
attempt will be made at the next session OF
Congress to have an appropriation made
to defray the cost Of sinking the Combine
ton shaft to the 5000 level. This will
forever set at rest the question whether
rich ore deposits live below certain depths.
At the bottom OF the joint Mexican and
Union deep winze the same vein formation
was found $500 feet below the surface as
that passed through on the upper ore
producing levels of the California and
Con. Virginia mines.
The walls were we'll defined, showing
an east clay next to the hanging, and
streaks OF black sulphuret ore rich in gold
aud silver were cut through in sinking and
found in the bottom of tho Wine. Prac-
tical minors are unanimous in the opinion
that these stringers lead to q vast deposit
of ore, located at q depth far below the
deepest levels explored.
In sinking the Combination the same
and even more indubitable evidence of the
existence OF ORC Nv greater ucptns Hhs
found. The fissure maintained a uniform
width, and q drift run from the bottom Of
the stump, 1885 feet below the surface.
showed 10 feet of SIS ore, backed up by q
belt OF solid quartz OF unknown extent.
The cost of sinking she Combination
shaft 1000 feet deeper will not exceed
So, 500, 900. The last 200 feet sunk by the
Cbollar Company was accomplished in less
t;no than the fret 200 feet below the sur
face, and this while the men were working
In the bottom in q space 40 feet long by 90
wide with a solid wall Of hot water 1900
feet deep on every side.
The expenditure by the Government OF
SIS, 600, 900 in prospecting the Comstock
lode to q depth of 5000 feet might result
in adding untold millions to the wealth OF
the country. and is certainly more practi-
cal and far less costly than fitting out an
nual expenditures In a vain effort to reach
the north pole. which ii accomplished
would result in no permanent benefit to
the human race.

Copy OF Cablegram Received from H d
Umbstaetter, Aug. 23, 1885.

LONDON, Eng, Aug. q, 1850.
In the chancery division OF the high court
of justice, London, Vice Chancellor Bacon
has given his decision in favor OF The
Charles A. Vogeier Company of Baltimore
Maryland, in the action brought by that
house against II. Churchill and Company
of Brisbane, Queensland. The case which
has been in progress here since September.
1854. grew out of an attempt of Churchill
and Company to register trade mark con-
tanning the words ST. Patrick Oil in con-
nection with q medicinal preparation
This was promptly opposed by the Vogeler
Company, VINO, while admitting that the
term and device which were sought to be
registered by the Australian firm were in
no respect identical 10 the welEknown st.
Jacobs Oil trade marks contended, how
ever that sufficient similarity existed be-
tween the term st. Patricks applied by
Churchill and Company and st. Jacobs as
used by the Vogcler Company to cause con-
fusion in the minds of the public and lead
to purchasers being deceived In support
of this position they submitted an over.
whelming amount of evidence from En-
giish, American and Australian sources
with the result stated. Under the decision
of the court Churchill and Company can
not register their mark and must pay costs
of the case This is the second trade mark
suit won by the Vogeler Company in En-
gland within three years.

Polygamy in Turkey.

In Eastern Life and Scenery" Mrs
Walker gives an account of life in
Turkey which differs in some important
respects from the current notions on
the subject. Being portrait painter
and teacher in female seminary, she
had unusual opportunities for observ-
ing life in the harems As regards the
Turkish women who sat for their por-
traits, the most curious thing was their
dissemination to be painted in mon
grel combination of French and Turk
ish costume. Though generally very
corpulent, small waist was ALWAYS
insisted on in the picture. Polygamy
is not so prevalent IS formerly. The
last war with Russia so impoverished
the wealthy that many are now obliged
todispense with the luxury of a second
or third wife. Among the peasants. on
the other hand. polygamy has increased
for the moment, owing to the fact that
the peasants. instead of hiring assist
ants. foundit more convenient to marry
the wives and daughters of those via
persisted in the war.

Communication Without Break Between
London and Calcutta.
An Englishman, after having been
shown the operations of the pneumatic
tube for carrying parcels in New York.
said: Il have seen just one thing
more wonderful than that. I have
talked by cable from London to Cal
cutta. India. over seven thousand miles
of wire. Two years ago l called upon
Managing Director w. Andrews. of the
Indo- European Telegraph Company,
mt No. Is Old Broad street, London.
1t was Sunday evening, and the wires
were not very busy. Mr.. Andrews called
upon Emden, German town. Give
me Odessa he wired. In few
seconds we got the signal from the
Russian seaport city, and asked for
Teheran. the capital of Persia. Call
Kurrachee.' said Andrews. In less
than half a minute we were signaling
that Indian town. The signals came
at the rate of fifteen words a minute.
After learning that the London office
was testing the long wires. Kurrachee
gave us Agra, and we chatted pleasant
" for few minutes with the operator
on duty there. In short time the
operator switched us on the cable to
the Indian capital, Calcutta. At first
the operator there could not believe
that he was talking to London. and he
asked, in the Morse languages: is that
really London, England?' 1t was a
wonderful achievement, natalie COM

PREVENTION OF CANCER.
Causes That Produce the Terrible Disease
AMI How t. Avoid Them.

Causes That Produce the Terrible Disease
AMI How t, Avoid Them.
The predisposing causes of cancer
are in the habits of the patients them
selves. just rs civilization is the cause
of the strain that wrecks so many in
tellects, so it is also the cause of de-
pressing the animal vitality of the
Individual, and brings in its train this
dread disease The main cause of this
disease is established wealth and state
of luxury. The appetite for eating
meat and highly-seas oned food is in
dulged, and can be regularly and
habitually INDUCED, only in state of
ties engaged in accommodating fortunes
and vieing with each Other in Sumptu-
Gus living. These conditions, together
with habits OF Incidence and INSULT
cient exercise, cause an accumulation
of the waste products in the system
which predisposes to cancer. Then an
accidental bruise. or reversal of fortune
with mental depression. or any other
exciting cause may develop this terrible
disease.
The lesson is obvious. People should
live more frugallv and take plenty of
exercise in the open air. and. in short,
follow hygienic modes of living. and
the danger of cancer is much more
remote The cure may be difficult. but
prevention seems to be in the power of
the individual. Medina. and .SurJica,
