covered from tho drift. Two of those VINO
were injured subsequently died. One man
was missing und his remains were found

blown by the force of the explosion through
the air shaft.
The total number of killed or fatally in
iured was found 10 be seventeen. AL but

CHE LATEST REPORT.
Stanley, the african Explorer, Again
Heard From.

Couriers from Tabora bring direct news
from the Stanley expedition, a portion OF
which was met mt the end Of November,
1887, by Arabs trading between Lakes Vic
toria NyanZa, Nzige and Tabora. These
Arabs met Stanleys rear guard at point
west of Albert Nyanza, southeast of Sanga,
just as the expedition was preparing TO
cross swamps caused by the radiation of
the streams that abound in that conn. ry.
The Arabs did not see Stanley. The de-
tachment seen consisted of 30 men, They
stated that Stanley was two days ahead.
The expedition had suffered gre ltly on the
march through thick forest, where it was
impossible to advance more than mile and
quarter day. They had also suffered in
the marshes, where many had disappeared
or died. Forty were drowned in crossing
a great river flowing ir' m east 20 west
One white man had died
Stanley was obiiccd q ght some tribes
that refused TO supply hin tn provisions.
The expedition had often t., ted in the ex-
pectation of receiving relt ;ottements from
the Congo. The rear g,a.l az the time
met had only been on the march five DAYS
after halt of three weeks, due to the i'll
ness OF Stanley and great part of the es
cort, who had been attacked with fever
The Arabs estimate the total strength OF
the expedition. after all losses, at 80 men
The health of Stanley was then good.
The rear guard, which consisted of natives
cd that he would no longer advance in a
northeasterly direction, but would strike
toward the north, hoping to avoid the
swamps. After getting a certain distance
north he intended to take an oblique line to
the eastward and go straight TO Wadelai
where he thought he would arrive 80 days
later-abOut the middle of January, 1888
The Arabs were of the opinion that the
expedition was still strong enough to reach
Wadelai.
1t will be remembered that on Aug. last
information was received from Zanzibar
that two passengers had arrived there who
had left the Interior about the beginning of
April, and who reported that Stanley had
not arrived at Wadelai up TO that time
The messengers stated that in the month
of March Emin Pasha did receive some
vague and indecisive news Of the explorer,
which had filtered through from tribe TO
tribe, but that the reports were very con-
ficting.
Some declared that Stanley after losing
a number of men and large portion OF his
supplies was hemmed in by hostile tribes
between the MabOda country and the AL
bert Nyanza, while other rumors were 10
the effect that he had been attacked by the
tribes in the Matongora- Mino district, and,
after several conflicts, had diverted his
course in an unknown direction.

On the farm of Jonas Spayd, in Bern
township, near Reading, Pa, the other

hand. The killed are: William Reyer, a
boy 16; Joseph Machmer, aged 10; Isaac
Marberger, aged 10; Joseph Spayd, aged
about 81, and Irwin Duntellberger, aged Is.
These were operating the threshing ma
chine when tho boiler burst, and were
standing but few feet from the latter,
and when the smoke had cleared away the
bodies OF all five were lying some distance
away, having been hurled from 80 to *
feet. They were terribly mutilated The
body OF Machmer was hurled through the
weather boarding of the barn.
The force Of the explosion was felt for
many miles around. George Hinnershitz,
sr., WAS badly injured about the head and
cannot recover. Engineer Hoover received
severe bruises. John Riegel was internally
injured and two or three others received
injuries Of most serious character.
The boiler is supposed TO have been rot
ten and unfit for use.

A Heavy Haul.

The United States express messenger on
the train on the New Orleans x Northeast
ern railway, was robbed on the Bird inst,
between Lacey and Derby stations, so
miles from New Orleans. The loss is be-
tween $40, 900 and $4,000.
The robber entered the express car
where Henry McElroy, the baggagem
was sitting on a chest neer the middle of
the car and Express Messenger Charles
Loure was at one end of the car checking
off freight. The robber came first TO tho
baggagemaster, presented pistol and re-
quired McElroy to hold up his hands.
Quickly throwing sack over McE1roy's
head, the robber gave his attention to the
messenger, who was required at the point
of q pistol TO open the safe.
A sack was then placed over the messen-
gers head while the robber proceeded with
the work of securing the money Both
McElroy and Loure were required under
threat TO hold up their hands. After Sc
curing the contents of the safe the robber
pulled the bell rope, the train then being
near Nicholson station, 45 miles from New
Orleans. When the train stopped he left
the car upobservcd.

Trout Fishing.

1t is amusing to read the articles on trout

Angler No. 2 goes for angler No for tell

No. 2 another, and so the fight goes on. And
yet both are often right. Whether 1t Is Lake
Edward, in Canada, or Noorehead in Name,
or Pend d'Oreile, in Idaho, the trout, and
the black bass, too, for that matter, will not
leave the deep, cold water to rise into the
