The effects Of the recent storm on the

Over a SCORE of vessels arrived yesterday. and
they all reported mishaps.
Tho Cherokee. from Charleston, was some

Chattahoochie, from Savannah, had o hole

Capt. Aslakan. Of the steamer Amicitia,
from Angostura, sighted q disabled schooner
while off Cape Hatteras on Tuesday last.
He ordered the boats down, and in the
midst Of O perfect hurricane Capt. Bennett
and seven sailors were rescued from the
wreck. They were the crew of the schooner
San Domingo, and they reported that their
craft had been struck by the cyclone three
days before, shifting her cargo and causing a
serious leak. Their masts and boat had been
carried away, and before they were rescued
they had given up all hope.

The amateur politicians of the G.. o. p,
who are attempting to discipline Johnny
O'Brien and the other district leaders of the
Eighth Assembly District. begin TO see that
they have undertaken a difficult task.
II Is so easy TO r%eorganize o district In ones
mind or on paper hat the actual difiulty was
not perceived until they were brought face to
face with it.
A canvass Of the Eighth Assembly District
has satisfied the Union League Club Repub-
create o new organization after O'Brien.
Smith, Brodsky, Kraus, Rourko and the rest
are kicked out will be simply nothing.
O'Brien and his friends laugh at the re-
formers and care little what they do, at the
same time reminding them that they are sim
ply bringing discredit upon the Republican
party by this airing of its dirty linen.
John j. O'Brien, his friends say, doesn't
TO know hat he controls the majority Of votes
cast in the Eighth Assembly District and he
can do this as we'll outside the pale of party
organization as when in.
Awell- known Republican who Is prominent
in the fight against O'Brien said to-day that O
plan has been devised by which q new or
ganization in opposition to O'Drien may be
devised.
It is. he said, to offer new leaders a certain
amount of Federal patronage and starve the
O'Brien gang out. Nursed on Federal pap,
he thinks O new organization might grow
strong and finally break O'Brien's hold on
the district.
This is a very clever scheme. but O'Brien
does not fear that it will be put into practice.
He says that his district gave the greatest
majority for Harrison Of any in the city. and
would like it to be inferred that that is his
sole reason for not fearing that he will be
left out when the piums are distributed.
1t is not the only reason, though. He has
o strong friend in Senator Quay, who ad-
mires Johnny for his maintenance of the
purity of the ballot-box, and Col. W. w.
Dudley is lost in admiration at his ability to
bunch fves =" and catch ~ fioaters."
With the friendship of two such men
O'brien knows that he won't get left when
the spoils of war are divided among the
yictors.

boughs of q juniper tree to rest. After recu-

from his hands, and, in falling behind him,
Its sharp point struck him in the leg, causing
great pain. Picking 1t up with q yehe-
ment imprecation from the pain II caused
him, he stuck 1t in the ground. saying
IL could remain there, and started TO
walk away. He had gone but q short dis
tance when he, relented; and, returning.
pulled II from the ground, bringing with II
some bright and shining metal. In his anger
he had unknowingly struck IL into a blind
ledge, which he located as the Amulet Mine,
and from which there has been over ESQ, 900
worth of high-grade ore shipped. From q

contains fully 1000 tons. Samples were pro-
cured from this promiscuously. and sampled
and assayed ut the sampling works, giving a
value OF 885 per ton. or total value OF the ore
on the dumps Of $40, 900. Mr.. Moore con-
templates the erection of q concentrating

The tenor reciprocated and they were mar
ried. They had not been long man md wife
before she began to feel suspicious Of him.
she had something of an opinion of her
self and what was due to her, and she said
nothing. AT last he told her upon one
occasion that he was going to Paris on profess
sional business, and he had to leave her in Lon
don. She found out that he had not gone to
France, but was at Liverpool with another
woman. She went quietly to Liverpool and
put up at the same hotel, and next morning
at breakfast-time she walked into the dining
room and saw him seated with his new fame
enjoying q cosy meal. She marched up to
the table, did not look at the woman ut all,
bat carelessly taking of her wedding ring,
she laid 1t on his plate and said: -

And she has never spoken to him since.

A PLEASANT mrERLupI

A pleasant and interesting scene was wit
messed on the Sixth Avenue Elevated Rail-
road yesterday by the passengers on a noon
train. A tired-out newsboy was asleep in
one of the seats. His feet were bare and blue
with cold. His cap had fallen OF and his head
rested against the hard seat. Two young
ladies entered the car and sat opposite the
sleeping lad. whose face was comely despite
its lack Of soap and water. One of the young
women gently raised the boys head without
waking him, and placed her soft muf be-
tween his begrimed cheek and the hard
wood.
This was the impulsive act Of o kind heart,
and an old gentleman seated near smiled
app~rovingly, and taking o quarter from his
pocket without q word handed II TO the
young woman and pointed TO the boy.
Another passenger as silently offered
n dime. The acts were contagious.
In Q few minutes everybody on the
car had contributed something towards the
voluntary fund. and the young woman. hei

covered her cheeks and reached to the fore.

In the weary and still sleeping boy'l
