ROBERT HEALEY DEAD,
Close of the Career of n Monk Who Re.
nOunced CelibacY.


Robert Healey, an old and well-known
citizen, with romantic history, died
on the Sth at his home in Anamosa, Ia,
aged 80 years. Deceased was a native
of County Waterford, Ireland. He re-
ceived a classical education in the old
country, entered the Catholic priest
hood on obtaining his majority, and
DON after joined the Order of Trap
lists. In lo45 he came to America in
company with the monks who estab-
Lshed the famous monastery at New
Mellary, Ia. .Healey was one of the
leaders of this sturdy band and main
tanned his connection with it until 1859,
when he fell violently in love with q
beautiful young lady who lived near the
monastery and whom he was in the
habit OF meeting clandestinely from
time to time. The two became 80 deep
~ enamored with each other that
Healey finally broke the vows of life
long celibacy be had taken by marrying
the young lady, Tor which act he was
expelled from the order and
accommodated from the Catholic
church. Disowned by his brother
monks and denied the benefits OF the
church, he became morose and hypo-
chondriacal, which resulted in partial
dementia before his death. During the
civil war he entered the service on the
Union side and was one of the bravest
soldiers in the heroic Thlrty-frst Iowa
Infantry, receiving several wounds, for
which he drew pension from the gov
eminent. A few years ago his wife
and two daughters removed to Cali
fornia, where they are now living.

than actually took part, among
them some persons of the best
standing, both among the whites and
the natives. Letters were taken from
Wilcox on his arrest which led to the
arrest of several well-known people,
among them being, it is said, J. E.
Brown, editor of the Hawaiian newspa-
per. 1t is also said to be now we'll
known fact in Honolulu that King Kala-
ksu has been informed that there was
to 10 an outbreak and called upon the
ministry to take measures to nip
the insurrection in the bud, but
they paid no heed to re warning.
The general impression on the islandsis
that the leaders Of the riot will never be
convicted, rs they will demand jury
trial by natives, and the majority of
these were in sympathy with the move
ment, which was to give them more
privileges. 1t is thought also that Will
cox and his men had no intention of
killing anyone, but thought that they
could capture the town by display of
a few field pieces and discharges of
musketry.

TWO MILES A MINUTE.
Wonderful Speed Attained in Trial of
an Electric Motor at Baltimore.

Wonderful Speed Attained in Trial of
an Electric Motor at Baltimore.
On a two-mile circular track the
startling speed Of two miles a minute
was maintained for about ten miles by
the three-ton motor of the Electro-Au-
tomato Transit Company of Baltimore
city, at their grounds at Laurel, Nd. on
the 7th. This speed equals three miles
per minute on straight track. David
q. Weems, the inventor, conducted the
experiments. The company will build
at once a fve-mile circular track on
Long Island to demonstrate the prac-
ticability of the electric passenger
scheme, and also the automatic system,
is intended only for light express pack
ages, mail matter and newspapers. Edi-
son has pronounced it the greatest con-
ception since the telegraph. The road
will be fenced in by barbed wire to
keep off cattle, and being insulated the
wires will be used for telephoning and
signaling along the line. In the new
passenger system the rails will have an
upper and lower bearing-the rail of the
future, 80 the SteeIton Iron people call
it. On the wheel which runs on the
upper bearing will be the weight. The
lower bearing will be pressed from
time to time by lazy wheel to hold the
cars to the track on curves at high rate
of snaed

FOUR CARS TELESCOPED.
Two Passenger Trains Collide With Fatar
Results Near Niagara Falls

Results Near Niagara Falls.
CHARLOTTE, N. Y, Aug. 1O.-A COLI
sion occurred near Forest Lawn on the
Rome, Watertown & Ogdensburg Rail
road about o'clock this morning. The
night express, bound west for Niagara
Falls, ran into the Rochester train,
which was backing down, teiescoping
four cars of the train and killing one
person and badly injuring eight 9th
Miss. Emma Perrin, of St. Johns.
Mich, aged %. Her father and mother
were on the train. Mr.. Perain was
bruised and injured internally. Mrs.
Perrin has her collar-bone broken and is
otherwise injured. Andrew Tiffany ,engi-
neer of the steamer Hazeluon, of Os-
wego, was badly injured internally and
is not expected to live. Mrs. Lewis
Moore of Gratwick. N. Y, had her right
leg broken; Mr.. Brown, of Sherman. N.
Y, had his leg cut of and lost and the
other foot cut off. Two others injured
are unknown.
This afternoon Andrew Tiffany and
John Jay, of Oswego, died at the city
hospital from the result oftheir injuries.
Among the injured are Miss Sarah M.
Sweet, West Wolcott, hip injured; Fred
erick Bell, Cheboygan, Mich, COM
pound fracture of left leg; Miss Lou
M GORE, Landstown, Canada, right
broken.
The accident was at Forest Lawn sta
ton, about seven miles from Windsor
Beach, where many Rochester people
are spending the summer. Those at
Forest Lawn, who come to the city
daily to do business, do so on stub
train which runs between Windsor
Beach and Forest Lawn. This stub
train had just run up to Forest Lawn
and was standing there waiting
for passengers when the Thou
sand Islands fast express, which
should leave Oswego at 4 A. NJ,
came flying along. Although all was
done that possibly could be done to stop
the train, still it crashed into the stub.
The rear car of the latter was complete
ly telescoped, and the engine of the ex-
press train driven completely through
1t. and the engine and car thrown upon
the platform of the depot.

FIRING ON Al PRINCE.
Hippolyte's Heavy Guns Turned on
the Haytian City.
HORRORS OF THE SCUT HERN WAR
The Bombardme mt Continued Without
1ntermis sfon-Unc1e Sans War Ship
at the Sport-Disastrous Work of
the Gatlings- News from
the Black Republic.

New YORK, Aug. 9.-Purser Squire, of
the steamer Alvo, at the Atlas Line,
which arrived from Hayti last night,
brings Hayden news. The Alvo left st.
Marc 1 p. NJ, July 26, and arrived at
Port au Prince at P. NJ. Of the same
day. When the steamer came to anch-
or the noise of Hippolyte's cannon
could be distinctly heard, firing at
the town. The attacking force was at
the west of the place, about two miles
away. With the aid of powerful glass
Purser Squire and the officers distinctly
saw Hyppolyte on the sea coast. The
United States steamer Ossipee lay in port
at Port au Prince, and near her was
anchored an English and Spanish
man-of-war. A tug-boat named
the Panama, formerly belonging in
the United States, and of about 12O
tons burden, was there too. She car
RED a few heavy guns and was in
Legitime's service. During the after
noon Of the 26th of July the Panama
WAS ordered around to where she could
attack Hippolyte's bombarding party
i'll the right flank. AS soon as the little
tug got within firing distance she began
to blaze away. She kept it up until
darkness set in. The bombardlng by
Hyppolyte's forces was kept up all
night. The Alvo left next morning.
Legitime has lost two men during the
tiercest of the fight. One was
killed instantly, the other lived
day. Hyppolyte's losses can
be reckoned in the hundreds it
is said. The gatliDg guns used by Hip
polyte are playing sad havoc with the
outskirts of Port au Prince. The Off
GERS on the Ossipee said to the people
on the Alva that they (the Ossipee Off
cers) had become used to the continued
firing and do not mind it a bit.
