Iisi0n ON the baltimore d. Polc

Held to Answer for the Fatal Coi-
Iisi0n ON the baltimore d. Poto-
mac RailrOad.
In Washington, Monday, the coroner's
investigation into the cause of the col
lision on the Baltimore d Potomac rail-
road near that city on Friday last, by
which James Jamison of Philadelphia,
engineer, was killed, was concluded.
The testimony OF Superintendent II. Il.
Garter and Train Dispatcher John W.
Reynolds Of Wilmington, fixed the re-
sponsibility upon Emory II. Kraemer,
telegraph operator at the block station
across the eastern branch.
During the hearing sensational epi-
sode occurred. Kraemer was on the stand
and Juror Whaley asked number Of
questions. Witness produced an order
not on a regular blank, which, he said,
he had received, and which was as fol-
lows: "After 1854 gets clear we shall have
no further order for northbound trains"
Superintendent Carter was on his feet
in an instant. "You never received that,
sir; you never received it. will show
you the order you received" and ne
took from Mr.. Reynolds hands scrap
of paper, on which William Lee "a young
telegrapher who had dropped in) had
written, "After ex. 1854 clears block we
have no orders for SO. Fl. II. o."
Witness said he let two trains go and it
was all right. Coroner Paterson; "You
lot three CO."
Superintendent Carter "You let one
90. We know 1t to the extent of forty or
fifty thousand dollars"
The jury returned the following yer.
dict:
That, Engineer James Jamison came to
his death from injuries received In collis-
sion between railway trains short distance
north OF the navy-yard tunnel. From tina
evidence we believe that the accident and
death OF Jamison was due TO the negligence
OF e. a. Kraemsr In dispatchins extra
freight train No. 307 without orders.
Kraemer was arrested and held to await
the action of the grand jury.

perience ON a BARK.
The Philadelphia Press says: Pilot
John II. Truxton o. the Delaware men,
arrived here on Sunday in cnarge of the
Norwegian bark Salatiga, which he
boarded of the Delaware capes from the
pilot boat Cope. he was quita ez-
hausted from exposure and want of rest,
having weathered the whole of the
cyclone with two other comrades in tie
Cope, which is the oldest boat on the
stations. ~ have been in the blizzard
and the storm of April, in which the
Turley was lost" said the pilot last even
ing, "but this was the most severe one /
have ever been out in.
s'Last Tuesday we thought our time
was come. The sky was as black as
night and the wind howled with hurri-
cane force. Every lurch the boat would
take we feared she would never rise
again, as the green seas swept over
her fore and aft. None OF us had dry
stitch of clothing. We had quite given
up all hope of ever seeing land again.
Wednesday and Thursday we endured
the same hardships, but towards Friday
morning the wind got down 30 that we
could put sail on our boat and fetch the
BreakwRter."
Tru1ton believes the loss Of life and
property in the storm, when summed up,
will by far exceed that Of any before.
Looking seward from the cspes the
ocean is mass OF drifting wrecksge OF

The house of William Pickhaver, near
CARROTS snuff mills was struck by light
ming at 8 p. m. Monday. Mr.. Pick
havei's l3-years-old son was so badly
stunned that he did not regain conscious

who is employed at the snuff mills, aud
who was there at the time, hearing the
ball OF FIRE shatteriug the shingles on the
roof of his dwelling hurried to the man

there he found his wife clssping the I'M
conscious lad in her arms. The family
had given up all hope of the boy, when
respiration ssemed all at once TO quicken
and the lad slowly came to his aenses. A
pig stye standing close by the house was
less fortunate, TOR thu same stroke OF
ightnine quickly dispatched two of the
hogs aud crippled the others SO that they
lied soon afterwards.

A Silent Man.

A writer in Leisure Hour says that
the most dramatic of silent men was
Wallenstein, the antagonist of Gusta-
vus Adolphus and the commander of
the emperors armies in the Thirty
Years war. He insisted that the
deepest silence should reign around
him. His officers took care that no
loud conversation should disturb their
general. They knew that chamber
lain had been hanged for waking him
without orders and that an officer who
would wear clanking spurs in the
commanders presence had been Sc
cretly put to death.
In the rooms of his palace the SER
wants glded as if phantoms and a
dozen senAnels moved around his tent
charged to secure the silence the
general demanded. Chains were
stretched across the streets in order to
guard against the disturbance of
sounds.
Wallenstein's taciturnity which
made him shun speech and his love of
silence that caused him to be irritated
at the slightest nose were due to his
constitutional temperament. He never
smiled, he never asked advice from
any one, and he could not endure to
be gazed at even when giving an or
der The soldiers when he crossed the
camp pretended not to see him, know
ing that curious look would bring
them punishment.

The Camphor of Commerce

This well known drug can be obtained
from many vegetables, especially such as
have an aromatic nature, such as pepper
mint, rosemary, marjoram and others.
The drug of commerce, however, as we
see it, is obtained from a plant called by
botanists, Taurus champhora, native of
Asia, but represented by our sassafras
tree, and the common bepZoin or Benja-
min tree, natives of this continent. The
Belgium or benzoin acid is not, however,
obtained from this tee, but from styrax
benzoin growing in the Isle of Sumetra.
The genus also contains the cinnamon
and cassia bark tree, the latter supposed
TO be the cassia of Scripture. The sweet
bay belonging to this genus is the Taurus
of the Romans and the Daphne of the
Greeks.
Camphor in the plant from which it is
obtained is so plentiful that it can be seen
in minute particles and can be picked
out. It is, however, obtained by cutting
the wood and stem into small bullets,
which are exposed with water to moder-
ate heat in a kind of alembic, in which
straw is put. The camphor is votatilized
and alta ches itself to the stray. 1t is
somewhat imp ire when imported, but is
purified again when it reaches Europe.
The process of manufacturing India ink
has been secret of the Chinese for many
centuries, but firm of English chemists
claim to have discovered a process of
treating camphor with sulphuric acid that
produces pigment identical with India
