John Boyles has struck a fine body of ore
iu the Tippecanoe mine, on the same hill
where the old Grub Stake mine is located,
out of which he and his partners have ex-
tracted over 100000 since it's first dis
covery. and the strike in the Tippecanoe
has the appearance OF a larger body than
the Grub Stake.
Messrs. Odds & Hickman are about clos

Two miles farther on we came to the Rev

Company and managed by Col. J.H. John

mill, al they were unfortunate enough to
select a patent ore crusher, and when set
up it was of NJ use and they are compelled
to put up stamps in their stead. The most
annoying feature OF this is the delay caused
by it, as they certainly have no doubt of
the value OF their mine, as they have just
refused an offer of $500, 600 for it.

GAS EXPLOSION.
Startling Disaster at Murraysville,
Pa
Five Buildings Wrecked and Number Of
People Dangerously Injured.

PITTSBURGH, March 19.-At 4,3O o'clock
this afternoon another appalling disaster
was added to the history of natural gas ex-
plosions A new gas we'll, known as the
McWilliams we'll belonging to the Char
tiers Valley Gas Company, located at Muir
raysville, was being turned into the COM
pany's main line at that point when the
connection suddenly broke and the
gas escaped in such volumes
that it almost instantly filed
the adjoining houses. The gas ignited in
the house of VIM. Taylor, and terrific ex-
plosion followed. The house was shattered,
and was soon wrapped in flames. The in
mates of the buildings, seven in number,
were quickly taken out and carried into
neighboring houses. The fire commune
Gated to four other buildings, in
GLIDING the postottice and store,
and all were totally destroyed The
fire ran back along the pipe to the wall,
burning the derrick and every thing sur
rounding it. The villagers were wild with
fright, as it was feared at one time that
the entire town would be consumed The
flames were, however, confined to the five
buildings. The victims of the ex-
plosion are VIM. Taylor, his wife and
two children; Mrs. Harry Taylor aud
her three children, and Lille Lacock. One
of the Taylor children and Miss Lacock are
so fearfully burned that they can not live
more than few hours. All the others are
dangerously burned except VIM. Taylor,
who will recover The loss on the build
ings and to the Gas Company will amount
to about $4,000.

FIGHTING A GAS FIRE.
Curious Scheme for shutting OF Natura
Gas at MurraysvilIe, Pa.

Curious Scheme for shutting OFF Natural
Gas ut Murraysville, Pa.
PITTsBUGHH, March 21.-After forty-eight
hours hard work the men have got the
burning well at Murraysville in such
a shape that the fire will be conquered. The
flame was about eighty feet above the
ground. A fire-proof shield was construct
ed, and under its shelter men gradually
worked their way up to the stand-pipe. Tho
pipe was then cut half way through and a
chain fastened around it above the cut.
This done, the workmen left the WE'LL car
rying an end of the chain with them. By
means of this chain the pipe was pulled
over and broken off close to the ground.
An arrangement on the principle of an
old-fashioned candle-snuffer is now being
made. The arms on it will extend
on each side sufficient length to
allow the men to work in safety.
This contrivance will be pushed up to the
we'll and cap will be forced over the pipe
and held there until the flames are extin-
guished by the cutting off of the fuel. 1t is
thought this can be done in the morning.
There is no danger from fire tonight unless
the wind should change into a gale, and
the alarm among the people has subsidized.

BosToN, March 21.-In the Supreme Court
Judge Holmes is hearing suit for alimony
brought by Maria Norcross against Alvin
Y. Norcross a Boston merchant, which is
preliminary to divorce suit next term,
Mrs. Norcross being the libelant the devel-

The evidence shows that in the summe II of
1865 Norcross met Maria Taylor, aged
eighteen, at Littleton, N. H., and after a
courtship of one day threw himself on his
knees, and called Heaven to witness that he
took her for his wife, In response she
raised her right hand and promised love
and devotion. The following December he
related the facts to The girls parents, and
asked to take her. The ceremony
constituted marriage by New Hamp-
shire. law, but Mr.. Taylor wanted
another ceremony, which Norcross
promised to go through at Boston,
but never did. The couple lived together

years, having two sons. In 1888, after four
years of pickering, Norcross elected the

accused Norcross of steali a $4,000 bond,
and securing, by false pretenses, her house

GERONIMO SURRENDERS,
But Under Circumstances That May Lead
to Very Serious Trouble With Mexico,


TOMBSTONE, A. T., March 2l.-A soldier
stationed at Mud Springs, under command
of Lieutenant Wheeler, arrived in this city
to-day, and from him was learned the sur
render of Geronimo to Lieutenant Maus. The
facts leading to the surrender are report
ed to be as follows Yesterday afternoon,
about ten miles south of San Bernardino,
the Apache camp was attacked by Mexican
forces and a hot skirmish ensued. During
the skirmish two Apaches were killed, and
the forces of Geronimo were completely
routed. Geronimo and his band fed in the
direction of Lieutenant Maus' camp for
safety, and surrendered Internationally.
The Mexican troops followed them across
the line into Maus' camp,and demanded the
prisoners, claiming that the fight occurred
on Mexican SOIL and that the victory was
theirs. Maus refused to give the prisoners
up, which greatly incensed the Mexicans,
who threatened to take the prisoners by
force General Crook was hourly expected
in camp, but at last accounts had failed to
arrive. Two dispatches from Maus have
been received at Mud Springs, appealing
for troops and assistance. The situation is
critical in the extreme, and the massacre
of Lieutenant Maus and his command may
occur at any moment

WASHINGTON, d. c., March 19.-Secre-

United States at Berlin, in which he states
that within the last few weeks not less
than thirty to forty cases of trichinosis
have been discovered in Zattichen a town
IN Silesia, and vicinity. Similar cases,
the Consul General says, are reported from
time to time from other places in Ger

which the manufacturers and exporters of
