Tides on the Atlantic Coast,

The great tidal wave which makes
nearly two complete circuits of the
globe IN every "a hours, is very slight
in mid-ocean, but increases in hight
in traversing shallow soundings, and
is still further augmented by con-
verging coast lines. The eastern
coast of North America has, as laid
down by Bache, great southern
bay" between Florida and Cape Hat.
teras, "middle bay" between Hat
teras and Nantucket, and an "eastern
bay" north of Nantucket, and, while
at Southern Florida the tide is one to
one and a half feet, at Cape Hatteras
two feet, at Southeastern Nantucket
only one foot, the hight within the
southern bay" at Savannah, is seven
feet, in the middle" at the entrance
of New York Bay, five feet, and in
the "eastern," at Boston, 10 feet, and
in the narrow Bay OF Fundy from 40
to 70 feet.

POOR JACK M'GREGOR.
Further Particulars Of the Terrible
Accident at the Minnie Moore.

News Minerl
DIR. Brown paid Jack McGregor
two visits yesterday, returning from
the last one about o'clock last even
ing. He considers the unfortunate
mans case hopeless. McGregor Is
only kept alive by stimulants and a
little nourishment. He may survive
a short time longer, as he has an al
most iron like constitution. His most
dangerous wounds are in the abdo-
men.
From what McGregor told his ply
sicians, and from what has been gath
cred from those first on the scene of
the accident, it appears that Metre
por went to the station after powder.
He took a stick and half out of the
box, leaving five or six in the box.
The stick and a half he put in his
pocket, and started away. 1t is sup
posed that in some mysterious way,
not known, the powder in the box
exploded.
McGregor says that he Immediately
experienced the sensation OF being
blown high up into the air. de
Wood River times. [volume] (Hailey, Idaho) 1882-1915, 1886-04-15

shouted for help, and here his recol-
lection of the horrible affair ceases.
The men from another station hurried
to the place where he was alone.
The first man to the spot after the ex-
plosion found McGregor leaning
against a car, where he had been
blown, in standing position. He
was in dazed and unconscious state,
entirely unable to realize what had
happened.
The effects of the explosion are
easier to be imagined than described.
The box was blown to fragments, in
every direction, and splinters we're
forced through McGregor's feet into
the soles of his boots. His clothes
were torn off from his knees to his
thighs. Large splinters were found
into his abdomen, and others into his
face. His watch was blown from its
pocket, and the works blown out of
the cases. His pocket book, contain
ing $50 gold piece, was served sim
ilarly. The works of the watch and
the pocket book were found in the
mine soon after the disaster.
The stick and half of powder in
McGregor's pocket were not exploded.
Had these been set off, it must have
been instant death Indications seen
by the first to reach him go to show
that he was not blown off his feet,
when it is almost miracle that he
was not instantly killed before he had
time to shout for assistance.
1t wakens the deepest feelings Of
sympathy and compassion to reflect
for moment upon the untimely mis-
fortune that has befallen Jack Nc
Oregon than whom there is mono
more worthy or esteemed, or more
deserving of long and happy life.
One i'll fated moment has blighted the
future possibilities and past struggles
Of a noble man.

A BOHEMIAN'S TRICK,
How to Get a Magnificent Meal at the
Cost OF a Plate Of Scum,

Kenworth Philip is dead. He was
the New York journalist accused and
acquitted of writing the Morey letter.
He was a bohemian and as tricky as
Joe Howard. One afternoon he saun.
tered into a brother journalistic sane
tum and requested his company al
luncheon in we'll known inn near by.
He detested eating alone. His friend
was skeptical as to Philips ability to
pay, and was too busy anyhow to
leave. Philip 'dispeled all doubts
by displaying a roll of bills. The ed
itor then introduced a gentleman who
was calling on him, and who, he
thought, would prove an acceptable
substitute for himself. The invita-
ton was transferred, and the pair
were soon seated and discussing a
choice bill of fare. Reaching their
coffee, Philip produced a newspaper
and began tearing to skaters GER
tam editorial. His language was SC
vigorous as to astound staid, elderly
gentleman who sat opposite. Philip
suddenly rendered him the paper
with extreme courtesy, and, while the
old man was absorbed in the offensive
article, quietly flched his check for a
plate of soup, and deposited in its
stead check for the elaborate double
feast, made for the cashiers desk. His
new acquaintance was too much as
tonished to speak until the sidewalk
was reached, when he exclaimed
"Mr. Philip, you certainly do not in
tend to allow that old gentleman tc
pay that bill?"
"That's all right, my FRIEND" re
piled the joker, she'll get square or
some one else"
"Then l will say good day, sir" ant
Mr.. Philips guest Indignantly returned
to the newspaper office to denounce
the rascality of his friends friend.

A Volcanic Region in the Atlantic.

Recent observations indicate the
existence of a submarine volcanic
crater between the Canary Islands and
the coast of Portugal. From a cable
laying steamer, in latitude 80 degrees
rs minutes north, longitude 8 degrees
"a minutes west, the water was found
to measure 1900 fathoms under the
bow and 800 fathoms under the stern,
showing the ship to be over the edge
of a deep depression in the ocean
bottom. An English geologist, T.
Mellard Reade, remarks that great
inequalities are found in the bed of
the sea off Lisbon, due, probably, to
a submarine chain of mountains.
