The Keller On Board the Tug Jersey
 City EXplOdes.


 NoRwALk, Conn.,, July 31.-News reached this city shortly after ten o'clock this even ing of terrible and very disastrous boiler explosion at Five Mile River, which occurred shortly before o'clock. The boiler was that of the steam tug Jersey City, owned in News burgh, N. Y., in charge of Captain Richard Parrot. The boat was assisting in the work of dredging out the harbor at that place un- der government contract, and the fireman was just banking his fires preparatory to sus- pending business for the day, when the ex . plosion occurred. Owing to bad facilities for obtaining news f1om that quarter but meagre information can be obtained at this hour, but from what little has been received here by telephone, the accident is supposed to be ve1y sci .ous one.
 The tug was blow %to atoms and the en- gineer and fremsn are badly, if not serior sly injured

Thunder clouds of war still overcast EuIope conceir,ng the im- mediate danger of copfiot he regarded the ve ,t preparations that had been made g a great security for peace. The issues iuvolv- ed in wsr would be so ftiRhtful that nations shrank from challenging one another. Events in Egs pt did not menace the permanent prosperity of that county. The disorder on the frontier would be suppressed. England had entered into engagements not to aban- don Egypt until the latter wfs capable of maintaining her oNn gove4 nment in the face of foes, and these engage ments England would ,uredly fulfill. Re ferring to Crete, he did not consider that there wss any need to fee- that the present movement would lead to a European con iict. He rspudiated the remote idea of see ing England in possession of Crete. The re :. ports current to that effect throughout the continent were without foundation. Refer- ring briefly to Ireland, he held that the gov ernment's action was the bringing of order and prosperity throughout the country, and that if ever any section of the peasantry be. lieved that their interests lay rather in defy ing than in obeying the law, that illusion was rapidly disappearing.

A SAD SURPRISE.
An Illinois Boys Search for HIS
Mother and the Sensational



Special Dispatch to the Globe-Democrat'
SAN FRANCISCO, CAL, August lo.-
Ten days ago young Charles cheney
arrived here from the East IN search
of his mother, who he had not seen
since he was 4 years OF age. Last
night he secured positive PROOF that
she was Mrs. Maud Van Aandt,
who died five years ago at the Palace
Hotel, of criminal practice, and whose
fate caused great local sensation, as
the doctor who attended her was ac-
cused of foul play. Young Cheney;
when he first came here, told
the police a romantic story of his Sc
cret removal from a local orphan asy-
lum by his father, who took him East
without his mothers knowledge.
The husband and wife had quarreled,
and the father told the boy when he
was about 10 years old that his moth
er was dead. He learned, however,
since his fathers death that he had
been deceived, and in the hope Of
finding his mother came West. After
considerable search he discovered
family in Oakland with whom his
mother lived after she separated from
her husband. She was beautiful
woman and passionately fond of her
young child. She was unable to sup
port him, and placed the boy in an
orphan asylum. The removal of the
child by the father, who took him
to his parents home in Mount
Morris, illinois, affected the moth
er greatly, and several years af-
ter she received news that the boy
was dead. After that she seemed to
lose all heart. She quit dressmaking,
in which she made a comfortable liv-
ing, and soon afterward married Dr.
Van Zandt, much older than herself.
He soon died and she entered upon
csreer of dissipation that was sudden
ly cut short five years ago by her
death. At the hotel, where she had
elegant rooms, she made the &C
ouain lance of a rich Los Angeles man
who, before he died, bequeathed her
nearly his whole estate. The rela-
tives vainly tried to break this will,
and great scandal resulted. After
this the widow lived life of luxury
at the Palace Hotel. Young Cheney,
who is working on a cablecar line
across the bay, is greatly dishearten'
ed at the result of his search.
