BALTIMORE, July 26.-An act of
almost unparalleled fortitude was that
of Carpenter John Myers, which will
probably end in the death of that brave
man. Myers was at work this morning
on building when gasoline stove ex-
ploded within and the dwelling Vas threa-
tened with FIRE. He rushed into the
house, grasped the stove, around which
the flames were leaping, and raising it
to his shoulders ran out into the street.
The gasoline poured down his back and
arms and soon the flames were burning
his flesh, but be clung to his fiery burden
until he had conveyed it where it could
do no further damage. Bystanders ex-
tiuguished the flames. His back and
arms were literally roasted and blood ran
in streams from his burned body. There
is little hope for his recovery.

AUGUSTA, Ga, July 24.-Augusta was
again treated to sensation tonight and
another pretty young widow and cow.
hide figured prominently. About Z
o'clock to night Mrs. Phiny Jackson, q
young widow lady, who lives on the cor.
ner of Jackson and King street, went
alone to the Georgia Railroad, where Mr..
George Perry works, and, after calling
him out and having few minutes con-
versation with him, commenced using a
cowhide pretty freely on the gentleman,
who had been in the habit of visiting her.
After the difficulty your correspondent
called on Mrs. Jackson and asked her
what was the cause of the trouble. She
very coolly answered that Mr.. Perry had
been talking scandalously about her to a
gentleman to whom she was engaged to
be married and also to other parties, and
she called on him this evening, and after
demanding satisfaction and failing to
get it, she brought the cowhide into use.
While Mr.. Perry was not dis6gured, still
he did not like the embarrassing position
he was placed in. He managed to take
the cowhide from Mrs. Jackson after she
had struck him several blows, but be did
not use the whip in return. The case
has been-reported at police headquarters,
and will be.investigated by the Court to-
morrow.

AUGUSTA, GA, July Is, 1SS9-Judson
Rountree, the fourteen :year.old aon of
Col. M. A. Rountree, of Augusta, went
over to Buck Island about month ago
to visit his uncle, Mr.. Frank Dunbar,
OF late Mr.. Dunbar's watermelon patch
has been frequently robbed BY negroes.
Young Judson said he would like to get
shot at the thieves, and his young com.
panions resolved to play o joke on him.
One night last week the boys loaded an
old gun with blank cartridges, and one of
them went into the patch with Judson to
watch for the thieves. The boys told
Judson that the negroes we're desperate
and dangerous, and ifthey were not killed
instantly, or disabled they would rush
upon and revenge themselves on anybody
shooting at them. In the meantime
several of the other boys blacked their
faces and went into the melon patch, in
sight and in range of the young sentinels.
As soon as Judson saw the boys with
black faces be fired at them, but as the
cartridges we're blank, of course they
took no effect. Judson saw the suppos.
ed robbers quickly advancing upon him,
and remembering what the boys had told
him about the negroes being desperate
and revengeful, and seeing that his com.
panion had run away, he was badly fright.
ened and ran to the house. The terrible
fright brought on delirious fever from
which he died on Friday night last.
