ROME, N. Y., Sept. With the coming of September the tourists in the North Woods are rapidly thinning out. Nearly all the boarding camps have had the best season ever known. As the summer visitors turn their faces homeward many sportsmen are coming in for the deer dogging season. One of the finest bucks ever killed on the chain was obtained one day this week by Mrs. Fred Hess of Cedar Island Camp. Mrs. Hess and her thirteen year old boy were alone in camp when the former saw the buck swimming the lake. She Immediately jumped into 8 boat, armed with rife, and rowing out in the lake some distance shot him as he was climbing the shore. He had a magnificent pair of antlers and weighed 250 pounds.

Lecture to masons and BrIcklayers.


 The Rev. W. F. Markwick delivered the second lecture in the series to workingmen last evening at the St. John street M. E. church. The discourse was addressed more especially to masons and bricklayers. His remarks were based upon the building of the Tower of Babel. He traced the history of the craft to it's antiquity, before the flood, though Babel was the first structure of which we have any knowledge that was built of brick and mortar. This tower, the speaker said, was erected, not as is com monly supposed, that it's wall might reach heaven, but as landmark to the trav- eler as he approached the great city of Baby lon from any direction. Solomon's temple was briefly alluded to as being built of accu- rately dressed blocks of quarried stone brought from great distance to the site of the temple.
 The great aim and object of our lives should be character building. We should see to it that we lay good foundation on which All bad materials-lying, stealing, islander and evil speaking. swearing and filthy conver- sation-should in no wise enter into the walls of the edifce. The walls must be xe- curately tested by the character of Jesus day by day as we progress and carefully fnished by that purity of living, without which the most solidly built structure will not stand. The speaker showed great familiarity with the technical terms of the craft, he having ! served a long old time apprenticeship with Q London architect and contractor. The next lecture in the course will be ad. ! dressed to carpenters.

A STOLEN HEIRESs FOUND.

Snug Little Fortune in Store For .
 Girl Who Was Kidnapped by Her
 Father.
 CHICAGO, Sept. 8.-There is a fortune of $40, ,00O, with interest for fifteen years or SO, waiting for Jeannette Andrews, a young lady now about eighteen years old ,who is supposed to be in Sioux City, Iowa. Her mother was the daughter of wealthy banker of this city and her family occupied good social posi- tion here. She fell in love with young man named Andrews and, notwithstanding the opposition of her father, married him. Her father disowned her, and her husband, fnd- ing he had no show for the fortune he had thought would one day be hers, treated her cruelty. She left him and returned to her father with her infant daughter Jeannette. Not long afterward the babe was stolen, 1t was thought by the father, and when Banker Adams died he left $40, 900 to which the child should be heir when she came of age.
 Mrs. Andrews spent | large sum searching for her daughter, but 1t was not until about man appeared about seventeen years ago at the cottage of Norwegian family named Nelson, at Des Moines, Iowa, bearing a babe in his arms. He induced the Nelsons to take the Dabe and Jeannette grew up with the idea that these people were her parents. She was taken sick year ago and Dr. J. H. Brewer attended her. He became convinced that the Nelsons were not her parents, and learning that gentleman named Andrews took a great interest in her he formed the theory that he was her father. Andrews, who was living in Des Moines, did not deny it, but said he in tended to watch over the girl until she came of age and get her fortune.
 k&o ko1l 1k 1>,,kI when she learned that her father had treated her mother cruelty she refused to have any thing to do with him, and Dr. Brewer and family removing to Sioux City a short time ago she accompanied them. Efforts to find her mother here have failed and it is thought she is now in Europe, while information sent to Dr. Brewer regarding her has been diverted and sent to Andrews at Des Moines. The girl will come here shortly to look up her mother.

Hungarian Killed and Several Oth-
 CTS Seriously Wounded.
 WILMINGTON, Del, Sept. e.-Last night race riot broke in the lower part of New castle, locally known as Dobbinsville, be- tween gangs employed in the Tasker iron works, in the course of which Hungarian named Janokovisky was shot in the heart and instantly killed by some one of the Irish rioters, and an Irishman named Owen Kava- nagh was stabbed in ten or eleven places by an unknown Hungarian. Kavanagh will re- cover. The rioting was the outcome of bad feeling that had existed between the different nationalities since the entrance of Poles and Slsvaoks in the mills, nearly two years ago. Thirty-three of the Slavacks have been ar- rested and warrants will be issued for the Irish participants, whom preliminary hearing before Mayor Hanson this afternoon showed to have been the aggressors. The evidence thus far shows that Janokovsky was trying to escape from several intoxicated Irish rioters, when the latter fired shotgun, the load passing through Janokovsky's heart. Five Irishmen, two Hungarisns and Hunga- rian woman also received wounds from gun shots and missiles.

THE GREAT FLEE AT ANTWERP.

Several More COrpses F0und-At Least
 Two Hundred Lives Lost.
 ANTWERP, Sept. S.-The fire which started in the cartridge factory on Friday has at last been extinguished. Several more cozpses have been found and the number of the dead will certainly reach 200. King Leopold and the cabinet ministers to-day visited the hospitals where the sufferers by the fire are being cared for. The arrest of Mir. Carvil- Han, the proprietor of the cartridge factory, has been ordered.
 Many persons passed the night in the open air dreading to remain in their homes owing to the explosions of petroleum, which oc- cured at intervals until Sunday morning. The village of Austrauwell, near at hand and inhabited by artisans, was completely des- troyed for hundreds of yards, and in it's vii 1 cinity not building escaped damage.

He had been member of the United church for many years past.

The weather has been fair aud pleasant
to-day, and there was more life in bust
ness than for several days past, though
the retail trade was still little slack.
The wholesale trade, however, was good
in all branches of business, merchants
having about all they could attend to.
Cotton was easier, and buyers here are
allowed a lower limit, the best grades
still being 10 cents in this market. The
staple is good, but not quite so good as
that of last year. Receipts to-day have
been very light, fact attributable to
the late heavy rains, which retarded
picking.
Wheat is still firm at former quota
tions, but receipts are dropping off very
materially of late.
Country produce is in strong demand
at almost fancy prices. While eggs will
readily command a shilling, as high as
20 cents has been paid III the market to-
day.
Feed stuffs are dull and slow, with
prices tending downward.
At the close OF the market to-day the
prices of all commodities were as fol-
lows:
