ON FIRE IN MID-OCEAN.
Thrilling Scenes and Heroic Conduct
Aboard a Blazing Vessel.

The Hamburg Line steamer
Rugia, from New York for Hamburg, which
arrived few days ago at Plymouth, Eng,
reports that the cotton in her afterhold was
spontaneously ignited four nights previous
to her landing in mid-ocean. The fire burned
fiercely, but was quenched after five anxious
hours, during which everything had been got
in readiness to abandon the steamer. One
hundred and thirty burning cotton bales
were jettiSoned.
Great fright prevailed among the passen-
gers, who remained on deck for forty eight
hourA Through the efforts to quench the fire
the cabins were flooded and twO-thirds of the
passengers luggage was spoiled. Much praise
was given the Captain and crew for their
exertiOns Two of the crew were injured. 1t
was feared that the steamers cargo was
greatly damaged.
After the fire had gained considerable
Roadway some of those on board made prepa-
rations to desert the ship but were prevented
from doing SO by the Captain, who threat
ened them with a revolver. When the iron
bul1head doors were opened the heat became
SO intense that many passengers were
scorched and the cotton bales around the
passengers luggage took fire. Casks Of lard,
which formed part Of the vessels cargo also
furnished fuel for the flames.
Hope had been we'll abandoned and boats
had been lowered to leave the threatened
steamer when it occurred to the Captain to
try steam instead of water against the fire
This plan was put into execution and proved
successful. The passengers have presented
the Captain with an address, and the crew
with various gifts, as evidences of gratitude
and esteem for their heroic work in the midst
Of the dangers that encompassed them all.

Fallen Wan.

Henry Gregg, the man arrested yes
terday for stealing horse and buggy
from C.B. Quinton of Kansas City, has
a history. He is a son of Rev. DIR.
Gregg, the great Dublin, Ireland
preacher. From 1878, to 1882, Gregg
was Gen. Sheridan's private secretary,
after which he was a clerk in the adju-
tant generals Office in Washington,
D. c., for three years. He was finally
transferred to the United States ma
rine service where he held an impor-
tant position until two years ago when
he came west. He worked in Omaha
several months as a newspaper report
er, but quit that business and drifted
to Kansas City, where he formed the
acquaintance of Rogers, the notorious
horse thief. Tuesday morning Gregg
started north from Kansas City with
the horse and buggy found in his
possession and arriving in Atchison
yesterday was arrested and cast into
prison. Officers from Kansas City
came up last evening and escorted the
prisoner to the place where he COM
mitted his last crime. Gregg is good
looking man of about thirty-five years
of age and we'll educated. He stood
we'll while in Washington, D. G. and
was an office mate of d. C, Arnold
when that gentleman was in the gov
eminent service. Gregg.s downfall
can be attributed to whiskey to which
he was an irredeemable slave. Thus
we see young men who
start out in life with fair pros
poets for success, take the wrong track
and wind up their unsuccessful career
| in felon's celI.-Atchison Patriot.

TnE THROW Chief discnssinr the foll,

THE Troy Chief Discussing the folly
of Office seeking and Office holding, re-
cites the fate of several of the govern
ors of this state as instances thereof.
1t says: Take our governors. What
one of them has engaged in anything
useful, or attempted to do much except
hold Office, since the expiration of their
term? Governor Robinson has come
nearest TO il; but even he, with his
magnificent farm, has paid more atten-
tion To Office than to farming. Gov
ernor Anthony has managed to keep at
work, but always with one eye peeled
for Office. Governor Carney was the
best business man ever elected govern
or; bat after that, his business gradu-
ally dwiudled away, and his grip was
gone. Being governor seems To have a
tendency to make IL man banker after
the senate, and large proportion OF
our governors have endeavofed to make
the Office a stepping stone TO the SEN
ate. Governor Harvey did manage tC
get TO the senate, where he became Z
nonentity, and has sunk into oblivion
down among the Virginia oyster beds
Governor Crawford, almost ever since
he was Governor. has held an Office 10y
which he sucked lots of rich blood
from the veins of Kansas. He receives
pay away out of proportion to TIT
work performed, but he holds on to i
with death grip. Governor st. JOIN
has become public nuisance. He ha
lost his cud, and is utterly worthless
He spends his time wandering arount
trying to get revenge upon somebody
because Col Almighty for his own in
scrutable purpose, made him squirt
and people have found it out. Clio
went from governor into the pension
Office. Since that has been taken ava
from him, it is said he has engaged i
