towards the embankment. Ward ran to
the phaeton and tried 10 rescue Miss Brady,
but it was too late George w. johnson
and his brother William who live on
the other side of the embankment
came rushing down across the track bring
ing a lantern. Suddenly from Philadel-
phia came the rumble Of the express tram.
One of the JOhnsons seized the lantern and
sprang down the track just as the head
light cleaned around the curve. He waived
the light frantically and the engineer saw
there was trouble and put on the brakes.
Ward called to Miss Brady and asked If she
could move herself, and she answered
''NO." 4 neighbOr who had joined the
party added more dispair by crying, My
God, the girl viii be killed" Then
the two men sprang one side and the train
crashed into the horse and phaeton, both
of which projected over the rail. The train
came to a stop just before the last cars
reached the debris. The horse by this time

in the cottage. The furniture was moved
about March 20, just the date when the
furniture was brought to the cottage This
furniture, it has become well known,
was purchased of H Ravell & com
pany. But until this evening it was not
learned that the bill of goods bought from
Revell included the identical trunk which
has since cut figure in the case. The
purchaser insisted on having an extra
heavy strap to go with the trunk and
though an unusually thick strap was fur
nished, he afterward returned and got in
place of the original strap one made to
order The man volun teered the informa-
ton that the heavy strap furnished first
would not be sufficient to hold what he
proposed to place in the trunk.
A special to the Times from Houghton,
Michigan, says that Thomas Coughlin a
livery man of Hancock, says man by the
name of Thomas or James Smith, a stranger
to him, called at his barn and hired a rig.
In conversation the man said he was going
to Chicago and did not know the city.
Couglin told him of his brother on the police
force in that city and said Smith could get
pointers as to the city from him.

Saved from a Shark.

Especial to THE HERALD Examiner Dispatch
New YORK, May 25.-John Kelly, a
Brooklyn fireman on the steamship George
w. Clyde, which arrived from Cape Hayti
and San Domingo ports Thursday evening,
had thrilling adventure at sea about
three hundred miles north of Turks island
while the ship was outward bound some
weeks ago. When the arrangements were
made for the steamer to sail from Brooklyn
Kelly was about three sheets in the wind, ="
in seafaring parlance, and before the Clyde
had gone many knots, Captain Kelly
realized the Importance of placing guard
over the fireman. The engineer was in
structed to keep his eyes on him, which he
did until the vessel neared Turks island,
when heavy squat came up. For a
moment the engineer gave all his attention
to his duties and Kelly seized the opportu-
nifty to go up on deck. In moment
splash was heard and Kelly was seen strug-
Cling in the water. A seaman named Hill
at once threw Kelly one of the deck chairs
which struck the fireman, who chung to it.
He was urged to hold on to it until a life
boat could be put in readiness to rescue

Edward Burgess on tbe yalkvrie.

Especial to THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch. !
BosroN, May 25.-The victories of the
Valkyrie in the races off Gravesend, inter
est yachting men in this vicinity. Com
ments on the result were varied, but that
there was no very bad case of ''scare" was
apparent. The general opinion seems to be
that the Valkyrie is just the boat that when
put to the test she will have to undergo
when she comes over here, there will be
nothing to fear by the present holders of
the cup. 1t was admitted by yachting en-
thusiasts that she is a weather craft on the
face OF this mornings report, but that this
was no criterion of her all around qualities.
They prefer to wait and see how she acts
in stiff breeze before setting up as
prophets.
Designer Edward Burgess who has just
returned from New York was asked for
his opinion of yesterdays race. ''F'rom
what has SO far appeared" said he, there
is no doubt the Valkyrie is fast boat;
just how speedy she is is impossible to
determine from Yesterdays race. 1t looks
as though she was a good light weather
boat, but even that cannot be told yet"
General Paine also has good opinion of
the Valkyrie. While quite confident that
the American yacht can beat her he is not
disposed to discount the Valkyrie's
powers. The fact that this English
cutters tOpSail was a "humble home, -
thus insuring her more power, is regarded
as sign that Englishmen have learned a
thing or two about yacht building from
Uncle Sam. Everybody here considers the
Valkyrie much superior to the last chal-

him. Hill jumped into boat. Before he
had pulled many strokes a shark was seen
bobbing UP and down in the water, gradu-
ally closing in on the drowning man. Al
though supposed to be suffering from
delirium tremens, Kelly seemed to realize
the critical position he was in. When the
shark was within two feet of him he threw
the chair at the monster, which for a mo-
ment made him change his course. in a
twinkling the fish was again after Kelly,
but blow from an oar in the hands of
Hill stunned him. In the interval Kelly
was pulled aboard the life boat, terribly ex
hausted and half drowned. In few mo
ments both men were safely aboard the
steamer. Kelly was rubbed and rolled on
a barrel until he revived. Then he was
given good drink of brandy and placed in
hirth

Cincinnati Sa DON Chasing.

CINCINNATI, May 25.-The police force
and saloon keepers are somewhat uncertain
about tomorrow. The police commission
ers have made an order adding to the list
of offenses for which the police are author
lied to make arrests that of keeping saloons
open on Sunday; giving baseball or the
atrical performances; common labor on
Sunday. But the police are under the
direct control of the mayor and his last or
der on the subject of Sunday saloons was
that policemen should arrest only when re-
quested to do so by a reputable citizen. The
mayor has issued no order and says he will
not do so, but intimates that an order to
close all saloons on Sundays after June l
will be issued next week

The Behrlng Sea Difficulty.

Especial TO THE HERALD. Examiner Dispatoh
washington, May 25.-The state de
partment evidently re CARDS tho situation
in Behring sea serious one. A request was
sent to the navy department yesterday TO
have the work fastened on the Iroquois at
the Mare Island navy yard, with view to
sending her north as promptly as possible
The Iroquois will be ready on Monday, with
a full complement of officers and men. The
revenue cutter, Rush, Captain Sheppard,
will leave San Francisco to-day for Gun
alaska, where the dispatch boat Thetis will
Join her. and after the arrival of the 1ro-
quois the fiotilla will proceed north. The
British vesselin Behring sea is, the Sprite,
a swell gunbOat carrying modern ordnance.
Our three vessels could easily blow her out
of the water. The significant feature of
the situation is the solicitude of the state
department. The Iroquois would have been
ordered north eventually if the representa-
tives of the tresUry department prevailed.
The officers of the revenue cutters
have represented that even if there were
no foreign war vessels in Behring sea the
cutters might not always be able to cope
readily with the illicit dealers. Some of
them are armed and would make vigorous
resistance to seizure by vessel carrying
no heavier guns than a revenue cutter.

A HURRICANE AT SEA.
The Terrible Experience of the Yantic when
far away from Port.

far away from Port.
New YORK, May 25-The United States
steamer Yantic, Commander J. C. Rock
well, arrived at quarantine last evening
She was minus her foremost, the main and
mizzen and topmasts had been cerrieC
away and the bowsprit was snapped in
two in the middle. She was leaking slightly
and some of the crew were laid up with
slight injuries.
The Yantic had a lively set to with &
hurricane about three hundred and fifty
miles out at sea. The cyclone had gotten
decidedly the best of the contest and there
was time during the storm when it looked
as if the Yantic and all hands were bound
for DaYy Jones locker. ....
The Yantic appeared in public on the
occasion of the naval parade in the cele-
bration Of the Washington centennial. Two
weeks ago she was ordered on special duty,
that OF destroying wrecks at sea. She sailed
away from this port with 40 souls on
board. II addition to her regular boats she
carried large steam launch, which was to
be used as a working boat about the wrecks.
Tuesday last she was about $50
miles out at sea, in latitude 3S degrees,
longitude IS. The morning had been per
feet, but shortly after that time the glass
began to act in remarkable manner.
Heavy clouds gathered, and there was
every Indication of a severe storm. Every
thing on board was made ready for the
enemy. A little anxiety was felt. 1t was
not until 80 that the storm broke, and
then it came with the fury of a hurricane.
The gale was from the south and lasted
for three long hours. The Yantic was
thrown on her beam ends and lay in that
condition for full an hour. The steam
launch which had filed with water helped
to hold the vessel down. She was cut away
il order to right the ship. The scheme
proved unsuccessful, and as the gale was
becoming more furious every minute, the
captain ordered the foremost cut away. 1t
was soon accomplished. In the meantime
three small boats, in addition to the steam
launch. had been carried away. The main
and mizzen topmasts were the next to go,
and then the iibboom snapped. 1t was a
slight one. The pumps were kept working.
Immediately after the hurricane had sub
sided, the Yantic started for home as best
she could do under the circumstances.

Indians of the lower Brule and Crow Greek
agencies were considerably pleased to learn
that the Sioux commissioners were soon
coming and that their agencies would be

good move on the part of the commission, as
all the Indians at the Crow and lower

their doing so will have good effect on
those at the other agencies who are OPP
