DROWNED ON DRY LAND.

The Most Remarkable Case of Accid enta1
 Death on Record Reported from CIncin-
 nati-Willie Ruehrwein's Death.
 CINCINNATI, May 11.-One of the strangest cases of accidental death ever known, and said to be the only one of it's kind on record, occurred here Tuesday. The victim was Willie Ruehrwein, aged 214 years.
 The little toddler went to a hydrant in the yard, and, standing upon his toes, managed to close his lips over the end of the nozzle of the hydrant. Then he turned on the water to its fullest force. The child's lips seemed glued to the nozzle with such cohesiveness that his little body hung suspended from it. Meanwhile the stream of water forced itself Into his stomach and lungs, causing suffoca- tion.
 His dreadful predicament was witnessed by his mother, who, when she attempted to lift him, found to her horror that she could not. Horror stricken she fairly wrenched her babe from the spout, the violent separation tearing the skin inside the mouth. A stream of blood and water flowed from between his lips as she lifted him in her arms. A physician was summoned and found the child beyond aid The little fellow died within five minutes, having literally drowned out of water. The theory advanced that obtains the most cre- dence is that the sudden rush of water para lyzed the muscles of the throat so that the child could not open its mouth.

DEATH ON THE RAIL.
A MORNING COLLISION NEAR BERGEN
 HILL TUNNEL.

Way Train Te1escoped by the Orange Express-Seyera1 Passengers Seriously Injured Two of Them Will Probably Die-Passengers Panic Stricken.
 NEW YORK, May 11.-A terrible col lision occurred about o'clock this morn ing just outside Bergen Hill tunnel at Jersey City. The Newark way train was standing a short distance from the tunnel waiting for the main line train, when the Orange express came around a curve and crashed into the Newark train, telescoping the rear cars. It was the busiest hour of the morning and both trains were crowded. The engineer of the express made every effort to stop the train, but it was too late to prevent collision and heavy loss. The engine cut it's way into the rear car, crushing it to splinters and wrecking the cars in front The widest panic arose among the passengers, but relief measures were at once taken. Fred Brown was taken from the ruins of the smoking car. His injuries consist of broken limbs and bruises Twenty-one others are said to have injured, whose names have not yet been given. Two passengers believed to be residents of Belleville are probably fatally injured.

Ann O'Delia's Mother Wants to Have
 Her Confined as 8 Lunatic-An Exam
 ination Asked For.
 NEW YORK, May LA new danger now looms in the near future for the prophecies, Diss Debar, and she will be a fortunate woman, indeed, if she escapes incarceration Her family will ask to have her examined as to her mental soundness, and have engaged Lawyer Jerome Buck to take the matter in charge.
 The following is portion of the letter written to Mir. Buck by Mrs Solomon, the mother of the "Princess:"
 A daughter of mine, Ann O'Delia Solomon is now before the courts of your city. For years Ann has pursued career that indicates a per- verted and depraved mind. She has brought sorrow to my heart and shame upon our name, but believe she is laboring under a monomania. therefore ask you, dear sir at the proper time to represent my family in all proceedings nece s. sary to place her in an insane asylum or some in stitution (not penal, where she may be properly restrained from committing depredations upon the public.

A Light House Near Punta Gorda.

WASHINGTON, May 1.-The house yester- day received from the secretary of the treas ury an estimate of s4O,OOO for the establish n,ent of light and fog signal at or near Punta Gorda, Cal. The light house board say that between Shelter Cove and Punta Gorda there are several dangerous sunken rocks off the shore that add to the hazards of navigation; that on ordinary dark nights the overhanging dark mountains keep the shore line in dark shadows, and confuse the best navigator as to his distance from the shore, so that it is impossible to make out this high rounding point either from the north or south. From reports made to the coast and geodetic survey it appears that there is absolute ignorance of the currents of this part of the coast The board recon. mends the establishment of the light The light house board recommends the establish ment, at cost of SS.0O0, of light at Point Isabel Texas
