Lost the Game Through "Ouacking."
There may not be much in O name,
but Martin Duck didn't like his. Now
it is Duke. The incident that led him
to make the change is thus told: About
two years ago Martin was pitching in a
game up in Michigan, and in the ninth
inning his club led the opposing team
by one run. Two of the latter had
reached two corners nearest the plate,
when man in the grand stand began
initiating the quack of q duck.
Martin didn't show at first that he
was annoyed by it; but as the "quack,
quack, quackP continued his face be-
came lobster colored. He shouted to
his taunter that he would fix him after
the game, but the fiend gave the pitch
er the horse laugh and went on with
his "quack, quacki" Duke was crazier
than the wild man from Borneo, ("
and at last he lost his head entirely and
threw the ball with all his might at his
tor,nentor. 1t didn't hit the mark, but
two runs came in and Martins side lost
the game. After that he dropped the
name of Duck entirely.

They Cause Ruin, Disaster and Death in
Idaho.
SPOKANE FALLS Wash. J, February 5th.-
The town of Burke, Idaho, in the Coeur
d Alene Mining District, has been nearly
destroyed by disastrous avalanches. Hal
of the business houses are in ruins, three
inhabitants have fled to the towns of Gem
and Wallace, fearing a repetition of the
disaster.
Particulars are meager as tine wires tc
all points in the mines have gone down
leaving no means of communication.
The disasters occurred yesterday after.
noon and this morning with scarcely q
moments warning. A Tremendous mass
of snow and rocks swept upon the town
from the west side of the narrow gulch in
which it was situated.
Five men were buried beneath the snow.
Two were rescued. but the others are dead
and their bodies have not yet been re-
covered. The ill-fated town lies in a mar.
row gulch, through which Canyon creek
pours its waters into the South Fork of the
Coeur d'Alene.
1t had about 200 inhabitants, who have
deserted their wrecked or meBaced homes
and their places of business. The nearest

three miles down the stream.
Yesterday another disastrous avalanche
swept down upon a boarding house con-
nected with the Custer mine, which is situ-
ated upon Nine Mile creek, about five
miles from Burke.
The clearinghouse was full of miners,
six of whom were killed, others had mar
row escape, and quite a number were more
or less injured. These disasters are not a
surprise to those familiar with the topog-
raphy of that section.
The towns are situated in very narrow
gulches, on either side of which abrupt
mountains arise. The snowfall this winter
has been unprecedented in the history OF
the country.
Within the last few days it has been rain
ing hard, which has had the effect of loos-
eniDg the deep snow-banks and precipi-
tating them upon the towns and houses

DIVIDED CHURCH.
Trouble Caused by a Ministerial Free
thinker,

CINCINNATI, February 5th.-Freethink-
ing is the wedge dividing the most power
full German congregation in this city. viz,
the German Lutheran Church. President
Peter Graft, of the Church Board is the
leader of the Freethinkers while the Rev.
Pister leads the Orthodox faction. Presi-
dent Graft, in the presence of the Sunday
school, denounced the lesson papers used
by the scholars. The pastor demonstrated,
whereupon he was peremptorily suspended
by Graft. To this the teachers and scholars
objected vigorously, and the room re-
echoed with yells of the opposing factions.
The uproar continued for half an hour
and Graf retired through rear door. Last
Sunday a week ago. Gustav Rufecht sp-
peared as Superintendent. As soon as he
announced the opening hymn the school
arose to its feet and yelled with all the
power of a thousand exerted throats.
Graft. the pastor and Rufecht in vain tried
to stop the noise. The school would not
have it, and the officers again left and the
school dispersed.
Last Sunday the doors were relocked and
had to be broken down before entrance
could be gained. When the school assem-
bled Graf appeared to take charge. The
teachers and pupils joined in hooting and
yelling at him, and continued until Graf
lett the room ana tne pastor look cnarge.
A meeting of the officers and some of the
leading members of the church was held
Tuesday to attempt to secure peace. Dur
ing the meeting Graft attempted to speak
but number of the young lady teachers
got round him and began to argue with him
about the suspension of their beloved Su-
perintendent. The convention became
very much excited, and warm words began
to fly back and forth.
Foremost among the teachers was Miss
Annie Armbrust, a beautiful young girl,
the daughter of wealthy widow living in
Clifton. Mr. Graf seized her by the arm
and pushed her aside, at the same time
saying, as she states:
You thief You nasty thingr
Miss Armbrust was not thus to be defied.
She lifted her pretty hand and dealt the
excited Graft resounding blow on the jaw
at the same time crying out, You old
bum r'
Just then Mrs. Graf appeared on the
scene and took her husband away. The
excitement grew intense, and the pastor
was hurried through a window by his
friends. The pastor is sustained BY all but
a few of his congregation. 1t is expected
that there will be trouble next Sunday.

An Express Official skips Out With
S35, 900.
ST. LOUIS, February 5th.-The biggest
sensation in express circles since the time
of the famous Jim Cummings" robbery
was occasioned to day when it was learned
that the Pacific Express Company had
been robbed of $35 900. On February LIST
the CITY National Bank of Dallas, Texas,
remitted to the Commercial National Bank
of st. Louis $4,000 in gold and $50 900 in
bills. The gold was duly received two
days ago. The bank day notified Super
intendent Fuller that they held notice
for $35 600 in currency which had not been
received The Superintendent telegraphed
to mis- assistant at Dallas, who replied that
there was no trace of the package there.
With the reply came the astounding in
formation that the money clerk of the
Dallas office, young man named F. A.
Walton, was missing since last Sunday
night.
His accounts had been looked over, but
were all straight, and nothing particularly
was suspected until the inquiry came from
St. Louis.
Then the cunning scheme was exposed.
Walton made out two receipts, one for
$15, 900 and one for $50 600 on one blank
On the duplicate forwarded to st. Louis,
however, no mention was made of the
$4,000, and consequently he was given
time to get away.
The express company has telegraphed a
description of the aDsconder every
where and hope to capture him.
Walton came originally from Ionia, Mich,
and has worked for several express compa-
MES. He was believed to be of exemplary
habits.
