HIS OWN FUNERAL PYRE.
Paradise, N. j., Excited Over a Hor.
ribIe Ira gedy.

The town of Paradise, near the Blue Noun
tains, in New Jersey, has been the scene of
dreadful tragedy. which has excited the hor-
ror Of the country people for many miles
around.
Philip Heinickle well-to-do German far
mer has for some time past made threats
that he would burn the town, but little heed
was paid to him, as it was not believed he
would carry out his threat
The other day he went to his large barn,
in which was stored all the summer harvest,
30 that it was filed to bursting, and kindled
q fire at the four corners. The barn was
soon blazing and roaring. while the flames
and smoke shot high in the air, showing for
miles around.
Some of his neighbors wanted to put out
the fire, but with gesture he refused their
aid, and they could do nothing but stand idly
gazing mt distance, for the flames were so
intense thata close view of the fire was I'M
comfortable.
Suddenly they we're Mortified at seeing
Heinickle deliberately throw himself into the
flames when they were at their height
Nothing could be done to prevent his terrible
act, as no one was near enough to him at the
time.
When the flames went down and the en-
bers had cooled 50 that a search among the
ruins was possible, his charIed and half
consumed body was found among the embers
several hours later.

Melvin GarIitZ Hanged.

Melvin Z. Garlitz has been hanged at
Cumberland, Md, for the murder of his
wife. He showed no signs of fear on the
scaffold and died without extraordinary
struggling.
Garlitz made statement on the night be-
fore his execution as follows: II desire to
express my gratif1ed appreciation of the
treatment Of the Sheriff and his family to
me while in JAIL also the constant and con-
siderate attention of the guards. [ would
like to have seen my little daughter before l
died and to be buried beside my wife, but
my father-in-law refused both requests /
die without any malice in my heart toward
any person"
Garlitzs crime a most atrocious one.
On March 26 last he shot his wife five times
on the streets of Cumberland, Nd. He held
the weapon so close to his victim that the
dress caught fire. Garlitz put out the fire be-
fore he escaped to Martinsburg, w. Va. He
was arrested that night. His trial lasted
eight days, the jury bringing in a verdict of
guilty of murder in the first degree. He APP
pealed, but the decision was sustained by the
Court Of Appeals.
GarIitz eloped with his victim, Leah Eva
White, a beautiful girl They were married
III Pennsylvania, but their married life did
not prove happy, and a separation followed.
Garlitz accused his wife of infidelity, and
claims that upon her forced admission he

A BRAVE DEED.
Engineer Meern's PerilOus Journey in
a Flooded Mine.

FOrty-five men were at work in the Ale
gheny mine thirteen miles from Cumberland
Md. when the wall between it and the ad-
Joining worked-out Boston and Etna
mine gave way from pressure of
water in the old mine. The water
flowed steadily in strong stream over four
feet in depth, and there were grave fears for
the men inside. Hours passed before any
relief could be given the prisoners, and dur
ing that time the scenes around the mouth of
the pit were heartrending.
Finally the water subsidized so that an en-
trance could be gained, and H. P. Meern, the
mining engineer of the company, started
down in search of the imprisoned
men, none of the outsiders being
willing to make the venture. After
wading through water, against a strong cur
rent up to his armpits, for the distance of
800 feet, he came to group of fOrty-three
men. who told him of a man and boy i'm
prisoned in a distant room. No one would
20 to their relief, but the engineer
started on again, and finding the
two. he placed the boy on his shoulder and
bidding the man follow, turned back and
joined the group. They seemed terrified
and without judgment. They declined to
go forward. and did so only after Meern
had taken the lead with the child
On his shoulder. Fortunately all escaped.
Meerns courage in entering the ruins, the
hope and encouragement he gave the en-
tCmbed employees when he met them, may be
justly considered their salvation.

Dispatches.
The Annual G.. A. R. Encampment
at Milwaukee Adjourns.

The National Encampment, G. A. r., has
pension rdestion was again taken up and de-
bated at length. Finally a resolution was
adopted affirming the action of the twenty
second National Encampment upon the mat
ter and instructing the Pension Com
Inittee to all possible means to secure legis-
lation in accordance with the resolutions of
that encampment. By this action the en-
campment indorses both disability and per
diem bills for the second time.
Majority and minority reports were sub
mitted on tho proposition Of the Department
of Massachusetts DISTINGUISHING past depart
ment commanders, and allowing them here
after simply seats upon the floor Of the en-
campment visitors. The effect of this
would have been to largely reduce the vot-
ing strength of the future bodies. The resO-
luton was finally defeated by vote of 1877
to IS.
An adverse report was presented and ap-
proved, upon the proposition to give the
eldest Sons of Veterans qualified member
ship in the order.
A resolution favoring an amendment to
the Pension laws by which soldiers widows
should continue to receive pensions on re-
marrying was rejected.
A letter Of thanks from Mrs. Sheridan re-
lating to the insertion in the last report Of a

When the firemen arrived they found the

OVER NIAGARA FALLS.

At last a man has taken the plunge with

the chaos Of waters TO tell the story Of the
foolhRrdy feat. The man Is Carlisle u. Ora
ham. a young cooper, who. with his barrel
shaped craft, has been before the public for
some time past, and the trip was made about
A. NJ, in the presence OF half hundred
spectators.
The inside Of the barrel had been heavily
padded and straps put IN 50 that the occupant
could secure himself The barrel was towed
out into the river and At 6:45 A n. the
nanhole was closed down and the
barrel was let go In addition TO the faSten-
ing on the inside, croSs-bars were laid over
the top Of the manhole cover and fastened
with spring locks.
At 40 the barrel was seen tn pass over
the fails about 200 feet from shore. For
a moment il was out of sight
Then il appeared a few feet from the falls
and floated out into one OF the strong eddies.
Elmer Jones an expert swimmer. was watch
ing, and as the craft swung around toward the
shore he plunged in and, catching one Of the
long ropes attached to the barrel, brought it
off and Graham lifted out in a somewhat ex
hausted condition.
As soon as ne was sufficiently recovered he
was taken TO his hotel where he still remains
in bed. In describing his trip he

the floods accompanying them.
1t is now estimated that 10000 persons

There has been terrible suffering among the

are left homeless and without the ordinary
necessities of life
