Humbly thanking the God of our fathers for having preserved you and yours from all the perils of the great deep, and as- suring you that language utterly fails to ex- press our admiration and affection for you, we oncs more repeat our hearts, fondest wei come home.

 Mrs. Allen Finds Herself en Fire While out to Ride-A Narrow Es- cape.
 BRocKToN, Mass, Aug. 10.-Mrs. Marie Allen and her husband started for a drive to Randolph and Quincy last evening. When near Quincy she noticed that there was con- siderable heat in the bottom of the carriage and throwing of the blankets it was discoy- cred that her clothes were on fire. With the aid of her husband she attempted to extin- guish the flames, but they were unsuccessful. The horse being frightened started to run. Mr. Allen jumped from the buggy to stop the animal, when he took fresh start and went out of reach. The horse ran but a short distance, when Mrs. Allen saw a small pond. She jumped out and rushed into the water, extinguishing the flames, which by this time had burned her severely. Matches on the bottom of the buggy ignited and was the cause of the fire. To-day Mrs. Allen was in critical condition, although her in- juries are not necessarily fatal.

 NEW YoRK, Aug. 10.-Mr. Blaine took 8 drive this afternoon through Central Park, accompanied by Messrs. Quay, Clarkson and other members of the National Republican committee. After returning from his drive Mir. Blaine retired to his room in the Fifth Avenue Hotel and rested until evening, none of the throng being permitted to disturb him. At o'clock the crowd in and around Madison Square numbered many thousands. The people whiled away the time shouting for Harrison, Blaine and Morton. The crowd represented all classes of society. On the stand were J. P. Archibald, Master Work man Magee and number of other labor leaders, as well es the officers of various Re- publican organizations here and out of town. s. B. Elkins, Perry Carson, Walker Blaine and others were also conspicuous. At 8:S0 Chairman Austin B. Ford called the labor meeting to order from the grand stand, and after few words of tribute to Mr. Blaine he sent Cappa's band to the hotel balcony to serenade the distinguished statesman. The band played Marching Through Georgia a | Homen was then rendered and in a few min utes storm of applause as the hero of the occasion appeared. Mir. Blaine came from the hotel leaning on the arm of Hon. Levi P. Morton and followed by ex-Senator Platt, General Alger, Walker and Emmons Blaine and a committee ofssscort. They were aided through the crowd by the police to the stand. When Mir. Blaine appeared on the stand Mir. Ford again called the meeting to order and David Healsy read an address on behalf of the workingmen of New York to Mir. Blaine. The address was a strong endorsement of protection. Mir. Blaine was then introduced and after the applause had subsided said:
 Mir Chairman-It would be egotism my part to take this magnificent demonstration as personal to myself It rather signifies the great popoular interest in the question upon which am supposed at least to have consistent record and an earnest zeal (Applause1 And you have before you con test in which that great issue is to be settled by the American people perhaps for an indefinite prosperous and the President at it's close proposed radical change in the industrial system which had produced that prosperity, and since that there has been confusion in the commerce and manufac- turing of the United States Applause The ques tion before the American people is whether he and his administration shall be sustained in this move nent.

 Labor day picnic, September 3d, will bring big throng of people to the shore.
 It has been probable that the newly or ganized Improvement association will labor for an improvement of the shore road. This driveway much needs improvement.
 There is 8 rumor that the members of the West Shore club, whose club house is oppo- site the Hinman House, intend to remove their headquarters to another part of the shore. The lease expires shortly, and an in- creased rent is demanded. The fence which encloses the grove on the Grove street side is becoming once more a topic of conversation. A petition, signed by several business men, has been presented to the railroad company requesting that an entrance be made to the grove from the neighboring street It is not improbable that the request will be granted. Cottager Max Adler and family, who have been visiting at Saratoga Springs, have left there and gre at present in the Catskill mountains. Mir. Adler's residence is at present occupied by MT. Louis Adler and family.
 MT. T. M Cooley, the well-known dairy man, will spend the remainder of the heated term in O cottage on Summer street. MT. Meigs, the Church street clothier, who speuds the summer evenings at the shore, was driving home yesterday in company with his wife when the wheel of the carriage caught in the horse car track on Beach street, near the curve, and the vehicle was oYer- turned, wreeking the wheel. I Miss Louise Durham, of New York, is vis- iting with Summer street friends. The combination that has been engaged | for the presentation of vaudeville in the \ Grove seems to have awakened new life al \ the shore and no less than three or four hun \ dred witness the performance nightly. MT Richard Coleman and company, well knowI
 in New Haven, are engaged for the coming | week. An interesting entertainment is prom ised.
 Next Monday the Cecilia Singing society o New Haven visit the shore. Some prize sing ing by the members together with list o1 athletic sports constitute the days pro- | gramme.
