Hornaday En- Route For Mexico with An
other Mans Wife.
To THE EDIToR-Sir: During the latter part
OF the summer new inspector of timber dep
relations came here. named L. c. Hornaday
About five weeks ago he left for parts un-
known, and his place is occupied bya new man.
1t is rumored that he sold some land, got
team, which he did not pay for, took another
mans wife, and turned his face toward Mexico
He claimed to be from Indiana, and said he was
much abused by THE SENTINEL. Some folks
here would like TO know what has became of
him. He is bad citizen, and is likely not
going to come this way again. Ii he comes to
Indiana, keep him. We do not want him.

was rapidly driven away. Miss Jackman is

AND THE SUN sHONE INTO A GREAT HOLE
WHERE FORT PITCHER HAD BEEN.
veyed the place where their fort had
been, there was not one Of them who had
sufficient command Of himself to write n
report of what had happened. They
gazed at tho bare, staring fatness of the
Shorn bluff, and they looked ut each other
This was not war. 1t was something
supernatural, awful They were not
frightened; they were oppressed and APP
palled. But the military discipline of
their minds soon exerted its force and q
brief account of the terrific event was
transmitted to the authorities, and Sergt
Kilsey was sentenced to month in the
guard house.
No one approached the vicinity of the
bluff where the fort had stood, for danger
might not be over; but every possible
point of observation within safe dis
lance was soon crowded with anxious
and terrified observers. A feeling of awe
was noticeable everywhere. If people
could have had a tangible idea of what
had occurred. it would have been differ
ent. If the sea had ragged; if vast body
of water had been thrown into the air; if
a dense cloud had been suddenly elected
from the surface of the earth, they might
have formed some opinion about it. But
the instantaneous disappearance of a
great fertilization with little more APP
preciable accompaniment than the sud
den tap, as of a little hammer, upon
thousands of window panes, was some
thing which their intellects could not
grasp. 1t was not to be expected that
the ordinary mind could appreciate the
difference between the action of an in.
Simultaneous motor when imbedded in
rocks and earth, and its effect, when op.
posed by nothing but stone walls, upon
or near the surface Of the earth.
Early the next morning the little fleet
Of the syndicate prepared to carry out
its further orders. The waters of the
lower bay were now entirely deserted
craft of every description having taken
refuge in the upper part of the harbol
near and above the city. Therefore as
soon as it was light enough to make OBJ
servations Repeller No. did not hesitate
to discharge motor bomb into the
harbor, mile or more above where the
| first one had fallen. This was done in
order to explode any torpedoes which
might have been put into position since
the discharge of the first bomb.
There were very few people in the city
and suburbs who were at that hour Out

that if every other man in the fort raj
away like u lot Of addle pated sheep h'
would not run with them; he would
stand to his post to the last, and wher
the couple of ships outside had go
through bombarding tho stout walls OF
the fort, the world would see that there
was at least one British soldier who was
not afraid of bomb, bo II little or big
Therefore he had managed to olude ob
servation, and 10 remain behind.
The sergeant was so hot headed in hi
determination to stand by the fort that
it required violence To remove him; ano
il was not until twenty minutes past
that the syndicate observers perceived
that he had been taken to the hill behind
which the garrison was encamped.
As it had been decided that RepelleI
No. . should discharge the next instan'
tancous motor bomb, there was an
anxious desire on the part of the opera
tors on that vessel that in this, their frs,
experience, they might do their duty as
we'll as their comrades on board the other
repellcr had done theirs. The most ac-
curate observations, the most careful cal
culations, were made and remade, the
point 10 be aimed at being about the
center Of the fort.
The motor bomb had been in the can
non for nearly an hour, and everything
had long been ready, when at precisely
thirty minutes past o'clock the signal
to discharge came from the director-in-
chief, and in four seconds afterward the
index on the scale indicated that the
gun was in the proper position, and the
button was touched.
The motor bomb was set to act the in
slant it should touch any portion Of the
fort, and the effect was different from
that Of the other bombs. There was a
quick, hard shock, but it was all in the
air Thousands Of panes of glass in the
city and in houses for miles around were
cracked or broken; birds fell dead or
stunned upon the ground, and people on
elevations at considerable distances felt
as if they had received blow; but there
was no trembling of the ground.
As to the fort, it had entirely disap-
peared, its particles having been instan-
taneously removed to great distance in
every direction, falling over such vast
expanse of land and water that their de-
scent was UNDESIRABLE.
In the place where the fortress had
,t,tIA tract nf hara
earth, which looked as if it had been
scraped into a staring dead level OF
gravel and clay. The instantaneous
motor bomb had been arranged to act
almost horizontally.
Few persons, except those who from a
distance had been watching the fort with
glasses, understood what had happened;
but every one in the city and surround
ing country was conscious that some
thing had happened Of most startling
kind, and that it was over in the same
instant in which they had perceived it,.
EVERYWHERE there was the noise Of fall
ing window glass. There were those
who asserted that for an instant they had
heard in the distance a grinding crash;
and there were others who were
quito sure that they had noticed what
might be called flash of darkness, as if
something had, with almost unappreci-
able quickness, passed between them and
the sun.

mounted the Hill before them and sur
