WIND AND FIRE.
A Terrible Hurricane Makes Life
Q Burden.
Fire In the Mountains Adds Terror to
the Winds


the Winds
Denver, Col, Jan. 26.-A terrible
wind storm ragged in eastern Colora-
do all yesterday and Friday. Dem
yer streets are almost deserted from
morning till night, and reports from
the divide country show it to be the
worst storm in years. Trains on
the Santa Fe, Rio Grande and Fort
Worth were moved yesterday by
gangs of section men clearing the
sand, which fills the cuts, from the
rails. The path of the heaviest
storm is down the mountains through
Monument, Colorado Springs and
Manitou.
A telephone from Monument at s
o'clock last evening said that many
out buildings had been destroyed
and citizens were moving from their
houses and taking refuge in the
brush. It reached a hurricane at
Nanitou. Buildings are reported
wrecked, and sidewalks lifted bodily
and hurled through the air.
70 add to the ominous situation
fire has broken out in the mountains
between that point and Pixies Peak,
and it is spreading over the hills
with fearful rapidity. 1t is only two
miles from the town, and sligh
change in the wind would soon drive
it into town, and nothing could save
the beautiful mountain resort, with
it's mamoth hotels and elegant cot
tages. Heavy explosions about 6 p.
m, along the mountains in the Vi
cinity of graders camps on the Pixies
Peak railroad, lead to the belief that
the fire has reached the powder mag
azine. There are hundreds of men
in the mountains, and grave fears
are entertained for their safety.
Fires are also reported on the
mountains west of Pik's Peak. It is
reported that the wind is unusually
severe on Pixies Peak, and that at a
railway grading camp halfway up
the mountain several men were kill
ed by being blown over precipice
Thisreport however is not confirmed
North of Denver the storm has
devastated the country for miles,
and at Louisville, the center of the
storm, manv dwellings, were com
pleteiy wrecked. At Fort Collins,
} the new college building was demol-
ished, and trains on all the lines
, were compelled to stop in sheltered
places to avoid the storm.
II Reports from Idaho last night are
l that the worst snow storm of th.
season has been raging since
o'clock Friday afternoon all through
tho territory. The Utah & North
ern railroad is completely BLOCKED
again, and all rolling stock and me
tive power has been ordered side
tracked until the storm is over. Th
Central Pacific is in worse cond
ton than ever 1t was reported yes
. terday morning that the fast mai
side-tracked at Shady-Run for th
- past ten days, on which the Howar
Atheneumcompany is, had been GO
e ten out, and the company was o
n its way to Omaha to pick up th
e thread of its engagements, but late
. advices prove this false. The Ill
! fortunate train is still stuck fast an

Balloons for Naval Purposes.

During the month of August last the
Mediterranean feet Of the French army |
was supplied with a captive balloon for
the purpose of reconuoitering. The bal
loon was constructed at the Military Ball
loon Works at Calais Mendon, and has a
capacity of II, 300 cubic feet. 1t is in
Hated with hydrogen, which is carried in
reservoirs under pressure OF 100 stmos-
pheres. A tall rope l30 feet long, which
for liehtDess is best made OF siib, serves
TO connect the balloon with ship OF the
feet. A number of ascents have been
made with the balloon from the armor-
clad Formid able, the tell rope heinc con-
nected to the top of the military mssts.
Many officers of the vessel have made
ascents, apd are unanimous in their
praise of the apparatus. On clear day
ell i'm mportsnt objects within radius of
eighteen to twenty-four miles can be
| clearly distinguished. Another important
point is that the waters OF the sea when
observed from considerable altitude are
sineularly clear, and the details of the
| bottom were some Of the ascents clesr-
| ly distiueaishsble, even at depth Of
eighty feet. This popularity allowed an
| observer ia the balloon to follow the
movems nts OF the su uhmarlne boat Gym
| note, during its recent trials, without
losing sight of it for single instant,
whatever its depth OF immersion.
| The balloons used are very stoutiy cor
structed, and 10 September last one was
TO ed at speed of ten aud enc half
knots per hours for distance OF twenty
| one knots by the torpedo boat Audac'eux
without suffering the slightest damage.
We may remark 10 conclusion that Ger
many has also adopted balloons for naval
purposes, aud during the recent named
vers at Wilhelmshaven one Of these was
used by the warship Mars for recon
! noiterinR. Mechanic and Tfsdesmsu.

From the Baltimore Sun.
In the corporation court Of Petersburg, Va.
yesterday. Judge d. N. Bernard. presiding, the
case of Il. II. Hampton, prominent colored
merchant, charged with selling liquor without
a license. was called for trial. During the trial
one OF the most exciting scenes that has been
witnessed In the court room for a long time oc-
Cured. Hon. Chas. +. Collier. mayor of the
city, before whom Hampton had had prelimi-
nary hearing and been Sc mt OH for trial, was in
the court room and occupied seat not far from

mayor's) allowing Hampton to take a jug
OF whisky away after the preliminary
examination held before him. and then
afterward instructing the police to
get it from Hampton again. Mr..
VIM. II. Mckinney. counsel for Hampton
thinking perhaps that the conversation might
be overheard by the jury. said nc hoped Mayor
Collier would not talk so loud in the presence
OF the jury. Mayor Collier came up toward
Mr.. Mckinney and asked him II he intended to
impute to him any improper motive. Mr.. Nc
Kenney answered the mayor by telling him
that he thought he (the mayor was taking a
little too much interest in the case. whereupon
Mayor Collier gave the lie to Mr.. McKenney
who ut once made for the mayor, but he was
caught by some bystanders and the parties
were separated before any blows could be
passed. Judge Bernard commanded peace
and fined both OF the gentlemen for contempt
of court Mayor Collier was fined eos and Mr.
Mckinney 80 The fines paid in open
court. Mr. Mckinney is president of the city
council. Both of the parties subsequently
Withdrew the harsh words used and the trial OF
Hampton was proceeded with.

James b. Pace, James H. Dooley, E. ID.
Christian and Gen. T. n. Logan, Richmond
capitalists, have recently made a million dol
lars in a railroad deal. About two years ago

THE DANGEROUS CROSSINGS.
Col Robert In Favor of Compelling the
Railroads to Properly Protect Them.

Frequently the Commissioners receive COM
plants from citizens relative to the dangerous
railroad crossings of the city on the line of the
Baltimore and Potomac railroad. The latest
complaint comes from Mr.. Jacob Frech. His
letter was referred to Lieut. Teeple. in whose
precinct the dangerous crossings complained
OF are located and in his report today trans
mitted to the Commissioners through Major
Moore he says:
%" Watchmen or gatemen are needed
at all the railroad crossings in the ninth pre-
cinct both day and night.
In sending the matter forward Capt Rossell,
who has the immediate charge of railroads
says:
IF it be within the power of the Commits
sioners to have gates and watchmen at these
crossings mentioned I think the same should
be ordered and that in all cases where there
are gates the watchmen should be required
during the entire "a hours"
Col. Robert has approved the recommends
ton and the matter is now in the hands Of the
other Commissioners In conversation with a
reporter of The STAR on the above subject
Col Robert said:
''There is nothing so dangerous as an I'M
protected railroad crossing, and am heartily
in favor of compelling all railroad companies to
properly protect the same. They should have
watchmen day and night and safety gates"

NEWPORT'S DELlRlUM.
Everybody Wild to See the Young
Prince Of Wales.

Though Prince George of Wales may not ar
rive for a month, writes a Newport CORE
spondent of the New York World. society peo-
pie are all in futter. Ward McAllister, who
has charge OF the arrangements, is being ap-
piled to from all sources for tickets to the
grand cotillon. From present indications he
will be at his wits end to keep the number
down to the original limit, $50 1t is UNDER
stood that the subscription Is 300, aud that
each Of the subscribers will be allowed nine
extra tickets. Mr.. McAlllster has promised to
eclipse all his previous triumphs on this
occasion. Pinard has been given carte
blanche and the decorations are to be espe-
cially elaborate. Orders have been sent to New
York by several cOttaGers for decorations, aud
Newport will be in holiday attire when the
prince arrives. Louis Lorillard whose estate,
VIneiand is one of the most beautiful in New
port, will probably give a luncheon in honor of
the prince. His entertainment must neces-
sarily be of quiet character, as he Is still in
mourning. The prince will call on George
Bancroft. but the venerable historian will not
be asked to entertain him on account of his
great age. Cornelius Vanderbilt will give q
dinner at the Breakers to the prince, and if ar
| engagements can be made there will be a
dance later. IL IL regretted very much that
William Waldorf Aston is in mourning and can
not give an entertainment at ''Beaulieu." Mrs.
imuh cteNeus VIII give diunef IN honor OF
the prince, whose father witnessed the mar
! riage of her daughter Minnie to Capt. Arthur
Paget. There are three other dinners to be
! given. but the names OF the hosts cannot be
made public at present. There 10 to be a bali
