FLEEING FROM DANGER.
The Exodus From Seaside Resorts 6
Is Great

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Sept. 13.-The
trains over the Camden & Atlantic road
to and from Atlantic City are running
on schedule time to-day, and, with the
exception of an hours delay in crossing
the meadows, are running on time. The
exodus from the sea shore is great. The
train which left Atlantic City at 6:55
this morning consisted of seven cars,
all heavily loaded. The one which left
at 7:30 brought the same number of
ears, and following the two early trains
was one of TWO sections which left At
lantic City at $50 a. m. 1t consisted OF
sixteen cars, all heavily loaded with pas
SengeTS. The run across the meadows
was easy as compared TO that made by
the first train yesterday. The water has
almost entirely subsidized. and the road
bed is clean. Until this morning no
definite idea of the damage to the West
Jersey road could be gained, but as the
mist clears away and the spray dis
appears it is seen that the road bed is in
terrible shape. Possibly the Reading
road, taking the entire stretch into con-
sideratiOn. is the most completely
wrecked, but as far as the work OF re-
pairs is concerned the West Jersey will
need as much attention. The West Jer-
Sey officials dispatched heavy repair
trains to the scene of the disaster yes
terday and will push the necessary re-
pairs TO speedy completion. The
Reading road has also several hundred
men actively at work on the meadows.
The mails all along the New Jersey and
Delaware coast which had been accumu-
lating since Monday last, owing to the
trains being detained. commenced ar
irving at the postoffice yesterday after
noon, and were very large. This MORN
ing another large batch came up from
Atlantic City, AbsecoH, Ocean City. Sea
Girt. PleasantVille and Sea Island City,
the latter being the first TO arrive from
that point since the storm first set in,
and consisted of nearly twenty pouches.
Some of the mail matter. particularly
that from Sea Isle City, was in a very
moist condition. on account of being
carried some distance on boats through

yond Repair by the Storm.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 13.-Sea Isle

ularly on the ocean front, has been

dermined. The mails are now being
sent away with regularity.

PRAYER DIDN'T CURE HER.
A Christian Science Crank Pays
the Penalty of Her FooIishness.

BROOKLYN. n. Y, Sept. 1S.-Martha
Olsen, a Norwegian, aged twenty-five
years, died last night of typhoid fever
under such circumstances that the at
tending physician would not grant
a certificate of death, and an
investigation OF the case has
resulted in the arrest tonight
of Carl Olsen-nO relation with whose
family the girl was stopping at the time
of her death. Miss Olsen, who came to
this country three years ago. was be-
lever in Christian science, and through
the meeting of followers of that faith
became acquainted with Carl Olsen
and his family, who were also
strong believers. Thursday last she
became ILL, but maintained that
1.-The Lord would cure her." Neigh
bors. however. insisted on the attend
ance of a physician, and DR.. A. w.
Ford was summoned. He left pre-
scription to suit the case and was as
founded when he called again last night
to find that it had not been filled. The
man Olsen puts forth his belief in the
faith cure as an excuse for himself and
the girls own strong feeling in that di-
rection. An autopsy will be held to-
morrow,

MERIDIAN, Miss. Sept. 13.-The
white people of Newton county, espe-
cially in the vicinity of Decatur, have
been much disturbed by reports that
the negroes were arming and organ
izing, and rumors were put af1oat
by the negroes themselves that
they were going to make serious
trouble, and meetings were being
held over the country looking
to that end. The result is that the
white people are arming themselves.
and the merchants have been unable TO
supply the demand for Winchesters,
one merchant srating that he could have
sold over 100 rifles Yesterday if he could
have supplied them. The whites de-
clare that they want no trouble. but
will be prepared for an emergency.
The negroes acknowledge that they
have been organizing politically, but
deny that they intend any disturbance.

this view of the matter.

ELECTRICITY WILL KILL.
An Italian Burned to a Crisp by
Clutching a Live Wire.

NEW YORK. Sept. 13.-JOseph Matz.
an Italian fruit Vender at the corner of
East Houston and Christie streets, was
killed to-day by coming in contact with
an electric light wire. The manner of
MATHS death was horrible and peculiar.
The awning over his stand had become
clegged with mud drippings from the
roof of tfle corner building, and Matz.
while attempting TO remove this ac-
emulation, lost his footing, and, TO
stay his fall, grasped wire near the
edge of the awning. The recent heavy
rains had soaked the insulation of the
wires, and he was literally burned to
horrible mass. A spectator attempted
to bring MatZ to the street and received
severe shock the moment he touched
the body. The hand which cIutched
the wire was burned to the bone, and
other parts of the body which had come
in contact with the network of live wires
presented Siekening appearance. An
ambulance surgeon. who was sum-
moned. said that death was almost in
