IN THE STORM CENTER.

Incoming Ocean Steamers Report
Encounters With the Cyclone.
NEW YORK, Sept. 1s.-lncoming
steamers continue to report encounters
with the cyclonic storm that passed off
to sea early this month after doing such
havoc in Cuba and Eastern Mexico. The
Anchoria struck the storm last Tuesday
night. She shipped heavy seas con-
stantly. The largest struck her early
Wednesday morning, when the water
washed completely over the bridge.
Capt. Brown was on the bridge with the
second officer at the time. They eS-
capped injury. The Arizona also had a
severe time of it for part of one day, but
she was too far from the storms center
to feel its full force.

ART GALLERY NOTES.

No. 26O, by Worthington Whitbridge,
N. A, shows a clear. limpid brook in
the foreground, flowing through a for
est of birch and maple trees, with a
clearing beyond. Patches of sky are
shown through the trees. The shadows
cast by the trees OH the brook are won
derfully distinct, and give touch of
nature to the scene. The light land
shade are excellent, especially where
the light brings out the white of the
birch trees and their shadows on the
surface of the brook. 1t almost names
itself ARTISTS Brook" az.
No. 237, "AZalea," by j. Carroll
Beckwith, is an ideal picture symbol
cal of spring, as illustrated by the aza-
lea flowers, semi-nude bust, with dra-
perry over shoulders, background of in-
tensely blue sky and azalea blossoms.
The flesh tinting is excellent; little
more distance given to the aZaleaS
would be an improvement.
No. SS6, MADE Captive" by H. Sid
dOns Mowbray, represents group of
female figures, half human, half spirit,
clothed in misty robes of irideScent
colOring, who float laZily earthward to-
ward a ''genie' with great vampire
wings, who reclines on the grassy
sward. The rays of light, colored from
the fair enchanters' costume, envelOp
him and hold him captive. Mr..
Mowbray has reveled in strong light
and shade and pure cOlors, and lets i'm
agination run riot in this ideal and
poetic creation. Mr.. MOwbray was a
pupil of Bonnet's in Paris, and has
caught the French artists fancy for
ideals and bOldness OF coloring, and
gives us marvellous effects in changeful
tints of color.
No. 176, "Sheep on the Hills of Odes-
sa," is a marvel in miniature, by POkit-
onow, the Russian painter, often called
the "Meissonier of landscape art" 1t
is only a few inches of canvas, but a
masters hand has transformed it to "a
thing of beauty and joy forever" 1t
belongs to the Walker cOllection-a gem
in gem corner of the art gallery.

DETECTIVES DISAGREE.
Row Over the Transfer of the
Merchants Police.


Merchants Police.
NJ. L. Bassett, of 'Bassett's Merchant
Police" has begun an action against
John L. Colwell to recover from him
$500 damages, and to prevent him from
foreclOsing chattel mortgage On some
household furniture. In the complaint
Mrs. Bassett states that some time ago
she purchased of Colwell the old Quin-
Ian Il King night watch effects, he rep
resenting that there were $3.50 sub
scribers, and that the business paid
$500 a month. For the business she
decided COlwell eighty acres of land and
gave him two notes for S125 each, Sc
cured by chattel mortgage on her furni-
ture. Now she complains that instead
of $50 subscribers there are less than
100, and that the business pays less than
$40 a month. She further states that
Colwell has seriously annoyed her, and
she wants 5000 damages and aninjunc-
ton issued restraining him from fore
closing the mortgage on her property.

TaECREMATORY INJUNCTION

In another place, the president of the
board of health writes a plea for the
new garbage crematory. in which he re-
grets the decision of Judge Baxter in
granting a temporary injunction. This
Injunction, 1t must be understood,
merely Restraints the prosecution of the
the work until hearing is had, and if
that hearing comes promptly, no
great damage can be done. The ques-
ton of nuisance had better be settled
before the building is erected than
afterward, and settled forever. 1t
is not necessary to enter into defense
of the crematory, for its use, and even
necessity are self-evident, and that is
not the question involved. 1t is
merely whether the chosen site is
good place and whether the crematory
will be a nuisance. If the argument of
DR.. KilvingtOn and his colleagues IS
sound, there is no reason to believe
Judge Baxter will perpetuate the in
junction. 1t is certainly important that
the crematOry I've erected at a central
point, and the board of health will be
able to make that fact clear to the
court.

Against the Summary lnjunc-

To the Editor of the Globe.
1t is a subject of surprise, and to all
good citizens matter for regret, that in
granting the temporary injunction
against the board Of health, restraining
it from erecting the crematory upon the
proposed site, Judge Baxter should have
so far forsaken his judicial position as
to pass upon the case before an express
sion of opinion or hearing had been
had. The crematory is public neces-
sity; its location upon some spot easy of
access to the most thickly populated
portion of the city is essential to its
successful operation. Wherever a site
should be selected, certain neighboring
residents of infiammatory disposition
are sure to be excited over the imagi-
nary prospect of nuisance at
the threshold of their homes: but

In the family OF I. ID. Hawker, near Tun-
Melton, was milking COW, when strange
dog came along and attacked the COW. Fail
ing TO get at the dog, the COW turned upon
the woman and struck her, one Of the horns
penetrating the bowels and tearing its
way across the body, making cash foot
long, through which protruded the bowels,
liver, spleen and part Of the pnncreas. Ply
sicians were summoned, who replaced
the entrails and sewed up the horrible
wound, but Mrs. Rogers lived only few
hours when lockjaw set in, ending in her
death. On the same day little two-year-
old child OF Jacob Groves, OF Valley Dist

through the skull into the brain, causing
instant death.

DROPPED FROM A spIRE.
Foolhardy Act OF Buffhlo Man--He Un-
dertakes to Climb to the Top OF .
Church steeple and Has His Brains
KuocLaH Ont

Knocked Out.
BUFFALO, N. Y, June 2l.-People
In the vicinity Of Washington
market this afternoon saw a trag-
edy they will not soon forget. The chimes
in st. Michael's Roman Catholic Church
had just ceased ringing when some Of the
folks in Washington street saw q man
climbing the tall steeple of the church.
The crowd increased as the man slowly
pulled himself toward the top by means of
the lightning rod. Itseemed every moment
TO the spectators as il the climber would
fall, but he went hand over hand to
the apex. When he reached the foot OF
the cross the lightning rod gave way. The
man made futile effort to throw his arms
about the spire, but it was too large, and
then he fell headlong to the roof OF the
body OF the church, distance Of one hum
dred feet His neck was broken and his
brains dashed out. Policeman Mcclure,
who saw the fall, called Fire Truck and
the patrol wagon. The firemen took
down the body, and the policemen
conveyed it to headquarters. The vic
tim of the tragedy was Charles Sullivan,
telegraph lineman, who lived near
the church. He had been drinking some
during the day, and made a bet with some
acquaintances, first as to the height of the
spire, and, second, as to his ability to climb
it safely. When Sullivan went to the
tower to climb it the bellmen refused to let
him pass, but afterward he slipped by
them, and the first they knew of the fatal
climb was when they saw the bleeding
body on the church roof after the fall.
Sullivan's betting friends got away as soon
as possible to avoid arrest.

A Freak Of Nature.

PARKERsBURG, w, VA, June 22.-Near
Weyman's, about eight miles from Weston,
in Lewis County, there is spring which
is attracting great deal Of attention by its
peculiar freaks. AT times the water in the
spring sinks completely out Of sight, leav-
ing dry hole. This condition Of affairs
lasts but short time, when with rush
and growl the spring suddenly
fills and throws strong volume
Of water and gas twenty-five feet in the
air. 1t is said the spring produces enough
gas to light up town of three or four
thousand people. The strangest part of
the affair is that before the great Southern
earthquake of 1886 there was no sign of q
spring on the spot where it now exists, and
that ON the morning after the earthquake
1t was found bubbling and throwing out
gas and water in great jets.

loud reports, light shot in at the window,
and she felt as II she had been set ON FIRE.
The electric light on the car went out
and she, along with the other passengers,
alighted. She heard the engineer call 10
the conductor 10 put the overhead wire

Imnorlani insurance. peclsion.

INDIANAPOLIS, IND, June 21.-The Su-
preme Court to-day decided very inn
portant case under what is known as tho
"Retaliatory Insurance Law" of 1877. I'm
der the law no company could operate in this
State except upon the conditions prescribed
by the State in which it was chartered.
Six years ago the Insurance Company Of
North America, Incorporated in Pennsyl-
vania, began business here, and it was
sought to collect tax Of $500 per snnum,
that being the license fee in Pennsylvania.
The company resisted the tax, and the
lower court held that the Legislature could
not constitutionally pass a retaliatory law.
The Supreme Court to-day reversed the
decision, declaring the law constitutional.

Several deserters from Stanley'se expedition

state that after travelling the Upper Aru.
whimi Stanley struck into rough, noun
famous country covered with dense forests.
The natives, who were excited by reports
spread by the Arabs, disputed the passage

continuous fighting. Stanley was Sc
verely wounded by an arrow. He
was compelled several times to con-
struct camps in order TO repel attacks, and
was obliged TO use the reserve provisions
that were intended for Emin Bey. The
died or disappeared. The deserters esti-
mate that the caravan lost one-third OF ito
men, and they say that many of those re-
malning were i'll, including the Europeans.
Stanley was encamped when the deserterS
left. He was surrounded by hostiles, and
was unable 10 send news to Emin or direct
ly 10 Yambunga. Major BaFtellot has re-
turned TO Yambunga, where he was await
ing the men that Mr.. Ward was collecting
