A BIG HAIL STORY.

Baron AIunehausen Knocked Clean Out
by IN Ohio Man.
DR.. Aug. Mueller, q learned son of
Saxony, now residing at Mount Healthy,
O., tells of q famous hail-storm in his
native county, says the Cincinnati
Times Star, which (but for the doctors
unquestioned veracity) possesses all the
ear-marks Of a Munohausen tale: "It was
on the 10th OF May, 1s4s, about three
O'Clock in the afternoon, that sharp,
black cloud suddenly arose in the
heavens over my native village, near
Weimer, In Saxony, and the terrible thun-
der warned Of big storm. Pretty soon 1t
began TO hail. The Jumps were small
at first, but they rapidly increased to
the sise Of hens eggs. The people had
all fed to places of safety and were
Watching the awful bombardment. All
vegetation was beaten fat into the
earth and the crops destroyed. But
horror seized the people when
they sew that the hail-stones
were increasing and the roar OF
the storm was deafening. The
hail-stones became the size Of teaoup,
then of large-sized glass, and great
masses OF Toe fell that were fully as
large as the globe of that lamp (Which
was about Ave inches in diameter).
Yes, sir, you may we'll look amazed. but
great Jumps Of Ice fell that weighed six
pounds, and these had knuokles upon
them two and three inches long; great
horned masses Of ice they were. Horses
and cattle were stricken and mangled
in the fields, the roofs Of houses were
beaten in, scarcely building escaping.

millions Of them, fell into the river and
were swept down by the current until
the stream became choked at the town
Of Ortung, and the flood rose into the
town and q portion of it was submerged.
The condition became so serious that
an appeal for public suocor was made to
the country. People who lived under
the shadow OF the Hartz mountains on
that May day In 1S4s will never forget
that hail-storm, and it Is one of the cur
rent stories Of that people to their chil'
dren and to travellers. That was hail.

HENRY DANIELS FATE.

4 German Soldier Who Spent Nlnet cen
Years In Slavery In Africa.
Recently, according to story trans
lated from the German by the Philadel-
phia Times, Christoph Daniels family
and friends in the village OF Greisen-
stein were in a state OF great agitation,
az we'll as the most heartfelt Joy. They
had q son who had been wounded ct
Gravelotte in the war OF 1870. The par
ents had received certificate of his
death, saying that he had died on the
S1st OF August. To the great Joy Of
parents and friends, this death notice
has proven false. Lately the parents
received Q letter from their son Henry,
in Algfers. This was the very one they
thought h I'D died nineteen years before.
Henry Daniel relates in his letter
that he had been taken prisoner by the
Turks, brought to Africa and given to
plantation owner as a present. There
he worked for nineteen years as q slave,
and suffered the most cruel treatment;
meat was thrown to him raw and he
had no clothing on his body since 1870.
He said that he had made six attempts
to escape, having failed every time.
Finally, when the plantation owner was
dead and buried, his escape was success
full. Three days and three nights he
was on his flight, until he fell ex-
hausted and tired out
In the city in which he fell he was
cared for and concealed at the time Of
his writing letter home by German
trades-people. This had been the first
chance he had Of sending any notice to
his parents. The son heartily begged
his parents to have him set free.
The very evening Of the receipt Of
the letter the father informed the cir
Quit officials as we'll as the royal council,
whereupon dispatches were sent to Ber-
lin to effect the Anal release of the
poor fellow.

FIFTY YEARS CHAINED.


A North Carolina lAlot Who PossaDoo0
RSmarksbie Strength.
Jay Hill died few days ago ct his
home, five miles above Trinity College.
N. G., aged seventy years. He was .
most remarkable character. He was
born an idiot, but since infancy hes
possessed physical strength to rare d.
gree, and was we'll formed in every par.
ticulsr, With the exception of his
head, which was so extremely ILL
shaped as to give him more the ap-
pearance OF beast than of . man
When but child he was often 20 vio-!
lent that 1t was necessary to eheanl
him 10 the hoon Notwithstanding thasi
strengthened day by day, until his chaaAl
was not sufficient to hold him, and owo,
OF three times he broke loose and 6edI
70 the woods. During his hsisf lihesey
he was - violent ~ q tiger, and IL wNs
difncult TO recapture and return him ~
his place Of confinement He was fast
ened with stronger bonds, and with tho
exception Of q few days he remained
chained to tho hcor in the same room
for about fifty years. He had an
insstiate desire for tearing to pieces
any thing that he could get, and st
times 1t was impossible to keep him
clothed. Flax was spun up into COARSE,
strong threads and woven into cloth,
which was doubled and quilted and made
into garments tor him. but with his
teeth and his talon-Nke fingers he tore
them to threads. He has been known
to tear 10 pisces . solid stiok Of hickory
wood with nothing but his teeth and
fingers. He ate as ravenously as lion.
and could drink, without the slightest
pain, boiling coffee.
On several occasions members Of tha
family narrowly escaped being killed By
him. One evening q sister started ia
60 out Of doors. She passed too neas
him and he spranR at her with great
force, knocked her through the door into
the yard, so badly injuring her that II
was not thought possible for her to live.
His father provided for him before his
death, leaving property enough to main
| tain o wretched life through all these
years. 1t was stipulated In the will
that he should not be taken to an asy'
| lum and that he should be kept on the
| old homestead.

THE: Pennsylvania railroad company
has virtually done away with the car
stove and put in its place steam. For
several years the company experimental
with different steam heating devices,
but found them almost all impracti-
cable. Over 200 cars have been fitted
out with steam appliances, and the work
of putting steam heating apparatus on
all the cars will be made as fast as posi-
BILE. The system is that exclusively of
the Pennsylvania railroad company, and
it is as follows Two straight pipes, two
inches in diameter, one for steam and
the other to carry the water of the con-
densation back to the locomotive. This
is done by a small vacuum pump fixed
on the tender and kept constantly rum
ming. The exhaust steam is all that is
used in heating the train. The pipes are
SO made that the steam can be made use
of for any one car without interfering
with the others. The pipes come up in
the car in each side just about the mid
die. From the pipes in the car spur
runs under each seat which gives gen.
eral distribution of heat. The car is
ventilated by forty openings through
the floor, each about two inches in
diameter and directly under the seats.
The fresh air passes over the steam
pipes, becoming heated before passing
into the car. The steam passes directly
to each end of the car,

THE republican Philadelphia Tele-
graph thinks not half justice has been
melted out to the prophetic corporal,
Tanner, who early, very early, in the
course of his nleteoric career foretold that
he and his friends at the national CAPT
tai would burst the surplus. His party,
he said, in its national platform, has
pledged itself to reduce the surplus, and
it meant to do it. Tanner was right.
His fine prophetic vision penetrated the
distance of time, and perceived the
much-dreaded surplus removed and a
deficit taking its place. All honor to
Tanner, then, not only as prophet, but
as one who had a part in redeeming his
party pledge. His successor in Office has
not talked SO much as he did, but he has
done more. Tanner made a slight de-
ficiency in the pension fund, but it was
as a molehill to a mountain compared
with that of the present chief commits
sioner of pensions. For the present fis-
cal year, which will end on the 3Oth inst,
there will have occurred an aggregate
expenditure for pensions of the:rather
tidyish sum of $11O, 100000.
