LONDON, Nov. 21.-lSpecial Cablegram to
THE BEE. The surviving members of the
crew of the British cruiser Serpent which
was lost off the Spanish coast on the night of
November 10, have arrived at Plymouth on
the troop-ship Tyne. In an interview, Bur-
ton, one of the survivors, said he believed
that the sea had extinguished the Serpents
fires, as most of the bodies picked up were
covered with volumes of dust and ashes.
The officers of the Tyne, however, believe
that the SerDents boilers burst, as several
of the bodies were mutilated.

Minor Mention.

Judge Decmer is not the best OF penmen,
especially when in his hurried way he dashes
off a decree with blunt leadpenciI. The
failure Of the county clerk to clearly make
out his pencilings in copying the record led
yesterday to the temporary abandonment of a
case in the district court. Some time last
May W. f. Woodward was appointed guard
ian OF his aged father, MI. Woodward who
is in his eighty-ninth year. The decree was
entered in due form, making the son the
guardian of the person and property, but in
the penciling Judge Decmer wrote it "person
& property in such hurried manner that
the clerk in making up the record took the
",&n for an "l,' and made the entry to read
so as to give young Woodward the guardian
ship of the old mans personal property"
Yesterday the case of w. Il. Woodward VS.
Mrs. Beach came up for hearing. The
plaintiff sued as guardian to have q deed set
aside, which the old man had given Mrs
Beach. In examining the record as to MS
appointment as guardian it was discovered
that it showed simply that he was the
guardian of the "personal property" and not
the guardian of "the person aud property"
OF course it was clerical error, but the case
could not be maintained with this sort of a
record. The matter was let go over to the
next term, and in the meantime steps will be
taken TO correct the record.
The case is a peculiar one. On the part Of
the plaintiff 1t is claimed that the old man Is
in his dotage, and that he has become so
under the influence of Mrs. Beach, who
rented house from him on Madison street,
that he was induced by her to give to her u
deed of the property, without receiving for it
any consideration This deed was given o
few days before his son was appointed as his
guardian, and now the son seeks to have the
deed set aside as void and procured by fraud
On the other side it is claimed that the son
has been making an annoying war upon his
aged father, and that the only object the
young man has is to get possession of the old
man s property. 1t is claimed that the old
gentleman was cared for by Mrs. Beach for
onths before this deed was made, and that
she is still caring for him Instead of paying
her for this care he agreed to deed her the
property if she would continue to care for
him during his life time. This care was tho
consideration. 1t is further claimed that the
father, though old and ntirm, is not incapa
bic of entering into valid contract, or dis
posing of his property TO his own advantage
and that in this case he acted wisely.

Mike Burns, a gray-haired but pugilistic
Irishman, engaged in a conversation yester-
day with the "Jap," the wrestler at the
Eden Musee. Mike believes that he used to
be hard man to haLdle, and he told the
Jap so.
"You couldn't wrestle,n said the Jap, dis
dainfully. "You couldn't wrestle anything
but potatoes and buttermilk.n
And you can rassel nothin' but rice, - said
Mike in reply.
And then the Jap struck Mike in the chest.
Before the Jap had time to think twice Mike
landed his brawny fist square on the Jap's
nose and laid him out. The Jap came to the
conclusion that Mike knew thing or two
about handling his fists, so he called at the
police station and had him arrested for as
sault and battery.

WHAT THE LEGISLATORS ARE
TRYING TO DO.
THE WHITE ELEPHANT PUT Away.
Adjournment Within Month-Cont-
Ing TO AN Understanding on the Tar
ST Bill-The Democratic Policy
Against Delaying its Passage.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 25.-The Post
says the two houses Of Congress have
taken new grip since the white ele-
plant known as the force bill has
been put out of the way. There is
renewed activity in the House, bust
ness having Jagged in that body while
the uncertainty existed whether the
session was to end before or
after the November elections. The
leaders in the House now expect to
hold quorum for the rest of the ses-
sion, members having returned who
would otherwise have remained away
indefinitely. Business has bristled
up now that the recess is in sight
within period of month.
On the strength of the reyiyifica-
ton an effort is being made to get a
combination to pass some more OF the Z
public building bills on the calendar.
The committee On rules will have a.
lively time of it during the next four
weeks if it endeavors, for the re-
islation as it has done heretofore.
By the end of the present week an.
understanding will be had as to the
length OF time to be devoted to the
tariff debate in the Senate There
will be no friction about it, and the
Senate will resume its former seren-
ity. Many Democratic senators have
been urged to 60 ahead with their
present tactics, and force the tariff
bill over into the next session, as
they have the force bill.
This bold and hazardous policy
meets with no favor on the Demo
cratic side from any of the party
managers, because it would give
new impulse to the force bill move
ment. The support of leading Re-
publican members on the finance COM
mittee was given to the postpone
ment of the force bill in order that
the tariff bill might be passed. If
the Democrats undertook to defeat
both they would find themselves in
deeper trouble than they have been
in at any time for long while. This
much has been plainly intimated
from sufficient authorities within the
finance committee. The Democrats
could not ask more than to have the
tariff bill go back to the House with Z
big reciprocity amendment tackled
to it.
Tuesday and Wednesday have al
ready been set apart for the consider
alton of the Butterworth bill, to pro-
hibit dealings in futures. etc, on
which a vote will he taken on We'd
nesday. The committee on rules IL:
bring in an order setting paif II Thurs
day and Saturday for business
brought up by the committee on
labor, and this order will probably
be agreed to. Friday will be private
bill day.

Dissraccrni Scenes in Floating
Variety Theatre.

Variety Theatre.
HUNTINGTON, w. Va, Aug. 25.-
There was a serious and bloody riot
alta performance given by the Sunny
South theatrical company at Coredo
Friday night. particulars of which
have been received. One man was
shot and over q dozen badly beaten,
and the floating theatre, in which
the trouble occurred, was badly
wrecked
The trouble was inaugurated by a
number of tough young men who per-
sisted in insulting the people upon
the stage during tht second act.
Three of the performers left the stage
with clubs and attacked their tor
mentors. The men were at once
overpowered by the audience and
cruelty beaten. The remainder of
the company went to their assis-
lance, when some one turned out the
lights.
PandemoniuM at once broke loose,
and every man began an onslaught
on his neighbor in the dark. Women
screamed and men called for help.
The police arrived and deputized a
number of citizens to aid in quelling
the riot, but this made matters
worse, and soon pistol shots began to
echo around the hall Finally the
crowd charged onto the stage after
the fleeing performers, who were un-
tremendously flung into the river,
where they were stoned in the dark
ne SIS.
The police and show people were
badly wounded by stones. and the
condition of several is serious. The
Advertiser characterizes the affair as
