A perfectly sane Michigan man discovered, the other day, that rat had found lodgnent in his trousers. and called for help. No one came, for the hearers arrived at the conclu- sion that the W hole matter was a joke. Let half crazy person announce that he has bee in his bonnet and there will at once be score of persons to listen to him.

Another Terrible War Gun.

est. Louis Gathman, of &c Lincoln ave
nue.. is the inventor, and so impressed is
the ordnance department of the United
States with the gun and its capabilities
that a public test has been ordered which
will be watched by Mai. Gen. S~choield.
president of the board of ordnance, and
many of the principal officers Of the army
and navy. The test, when made, will
take place near New York City or
Washington. Ii the destructive power
of this piece of artillery is as great as
claimed-and from recent trials at Fort
Sheridan 1t has borne out all expectations
the art of warfare has acquired another
very deadly weapon. A single shot,
properly aimed from Mr.. Gathman's
gun, it is claimed, will sink any ironclad
afoat. Any ordinary vessel would be
torn to pieces by it, and even the steel
clad cruisers of EnRland's navy would be
compelled to flee in terror from this run.
There is no complex arrangement con-
nected with Mr.. Gathman's destructive
piece of ordnance. 1t can DO made of
any size or to suit any demand. The
whole idea involved in the new gun is
that it acts as a protector OF a torpedo.
Instead of pushing these powerful de-
stroyers along beneath the water and
missing the mark aimed at two-thirds of
the time, this gun throws the same in
strumeut or its equal through the air and
makes it drop in the water a short dis
lance from the ship aimed at, where i, ex-

SADNESS IN SPOKANE.
Details of Saturday Evenings
Terrible Accident.
Eighteen Bodies Taken Out of
the Mass of Rock.
Chicago HOodlums Fatally
Shoot a Cowboy.

SPOKANE FALLS, Sept. THE men
who we're engaged in the work of rescu-
ing the unfortunate victims of last even
ing's awful explosion were compelled to
quit at IL o'clock last night because of the
near presence of five other blasts that
might be accidentally exploded. Up to
that time eighteen bodies had been taken
out of the mass of rock and there were
twenty-seven men yet unaccounted for.
1t is believed now that the premature
blast was caused by someone's careless
ness. Ii is the custom to prepare the
blasts and charge them, and at the hours
OF IL and 6, after the men have left
work and gone 70 pliees of safety, to
shoot them. la this case one blast had
been prepared and Foreman Mcpherson
was preparing a second. Either the rock
was too hot from the drills or else the
tampiDg exploded it, and that explosion
also set off the first blast. The man who
was drilling was blown to atoms, as well
as MCPHERSON and some others. A man
who stood beside the tamper escaped with
a slight bruise. although 10000 cnbic
feet of rock we're hurled around him and
his clothes torn to shreds. The blasts are
so arranged that the rock is thrown from
the hill toward a cut. Not anticipating
the blast about thirty men were under the
cliff when the explosion came. Great
masses OF rock and earth were raised in
the air aud pitched over in the cut, bury
ing the men beneath it. None of them
had time to run, but a few escaped in a
miraculous manner. An hundred men
were at work in adjoining cuts and at once
rushed to the scene and began the work
of rescue From the huge mass of de-
bris groans and shrleks issued and the air
was filled with appeals of the wounded
and dying. In half an hour, however. all
was still except the noise made by the
~workingmen with their picks.

We drew the boat up on the sandy
shore and then walked across the PENN
sula, which was here about a quarter of
a mile wide, TO view the tremendous sea
rolling in. There was a ~northeaster
blowing, and the ocean as far out as one
could see was boiling and foaming. The
tide wa on the flood, and as we stood
there looking into the raging surf, with
the gale almost flinging US down at
times, a dark object appeared in the
midst of the foam. 1t was whirled and
tossed and buffeted for three or four
minutes, and tAen a great wave brought
it in and flung it upon the wet sands at
our feet.
While the rest of us started back at
the sight the bronzed face old fisherman
dashed forward and gathered it up and
retreated behind a sand hill. We fol-
lowed, and as we gathered about him he
knelt on the sands and removed his hat.
1t was the body of a child-a little girl
not over 4 or . years old. No, not the
body, but the bones-a skeleton wrapped
in a dress and jacket. There was little
more than bones. 1t had evidently been
buried in the sands for a long time, and
some change OF the current had cut 1t
out and brought it ashore.
Somebody's heart achesl' whispered
the old fisherman as he looked away
from us.
Aye; but whose? When did it hap
pen? And where? There was none to
tell. This Door body had been searched
for, wept over, prayed for. given up to
God at last. A world of sorrow had
crept into some mosher's heart. A ia
theirs lips had quivered as he thought of
her fate.
'Her soul is up therer' whispered the
old man as he pointed heavenward, "but
we will give the little body rest down
here"
And with bits of board we scooped out
a resting place high above the sweep of
the tide and laid the bones away. Above
them we placed a board as a guide
should circumstance ever direct a search
er's feet that way. And then, as we
stood with uncovered heads for a mo-
ment, the gale shrieking madly oyer that
waste of sand, the old man said:N
MAN may never find the spdhs, but
God will know where the poor child lies

CHARLOTTE. N. c., Sept. The
town of Dallas presents a scene that would
compare favorably with some Western
town that had been visited by a terrible
cyclone. In some portions of the place
the house ae completely demolished,
literally wiped fl the earth. The cause
is due to the raid that white caps made
last night. 1t was indeed a plight OF hor-
ror as well as Of suffering. They went at
their work after the regular old fashioned
"kuklux" style, tearing down stables,
fences and everything that came in their
way. From some of the dwellings the
furniture was taken out and broken and
the inside of the houses as far as possible
mutilated so as not to be fit for occupan-
cy. The cause has not fully developed,

One good way to bind a file of maya
zines cheaply is to punch three holes
near the back of each magazine, and
pass strong cord through the holes, tie
ing tightly with the regular binders
knot. The edges may be trimmed under
a printers paper cutter, or even with a
sharp knife. OF course, a bookbinder
can do a better job. Some people, by
the way, do not know that a bookbinder
will bind a volume of magazines strong
ly and neatly in library sheep for
twenty-five cents. The owner can letter
the volume with a pen, and it is quite as
~serviceable as if it were more expensive

President Harrison, being a deacon in
the Presbyterian church, is supposed to
not be in the habit of swearing. No
body has been known to hear him.
Many of the presidents have, however,
been able to swear, and did so. Jackson
stands pre-eminent for his mouth filing
oaths.. His genius for ~inventing start
ling explosives was extraordinary. With
age, however, his habit of cussing grew
less pronounced, and he generally con
tented himself with saying, by the
Eternalv' unless the occasion required
something stronger. Andy johnson cuss-
ed frightfully. Grant, although a smok-
err and drinker, seldom uttered an oath,
though he was a military man. He was
the only soldier president who never
swore. The best known swearer of the
present day is Gen. Sherman, although
Sheridan when he lived was a rival for
the honor, but with little Phil dead he
reigns the prince of oath inventors

The land grant forfeiture and anti

In the house the Virginia contested

son pointedly alludos to the fact that he
has bought Marie many costly presents
and secured her profitable engagements.
Marie Roze cannot dissolve their mar
rage, he says, because there never was
any.
AS Mapleson has always introduced
Marie Roze as his wife, both here and IN
America. and she has children by him,
this letter causes much surprise. Not
long ago Marie Roze discovered her hus-
band in a situation which left no doubt as
to In6delity, so she lcfr him. She de

but an amicable separation was
agreed upon, Maples,n going to the

shown Mapleson's letter. She declared
she could not talk about the matter with

The sister admitted the separation be-

affirmed, was due to a lapse on Henry's
part, which Marie could rot overlook.
Though she had shown a spirit of forgive
ness on other OCCASIONS, she left his house
