 BLOCK ISLAND, July 17.-J. B. Allen, an island fisherman, had thrilling experience with swordfsh on Saturday while fishing in one of the Block Island schooners eight or ten miles at sea. The harpooner had thrown the "lily iron" and fastened it deeply into 6 monster swordfsh. and Allen attempted to throw overheard the float that goes with the harpoon. He became sntanglsd in the line and just then the fish made a terrific plunge Allen went overheard with the rope coiled tightly about his body, and the great fish, flashing the ocean into foam, made of raridly, dragging the fisherman out to sea.
 Allen made desperate effort to extricste himself, but half the time he was drawn | along furiously beneath the oceans surface. His companions on the vessel turned her prov in the direction he was being drawn, but could do nothing else to aid him. Every one believed that he must be drowned, as he went bobbing and plunging out to sea. But Allen preserved his presence of mind. and finally succeeded in releasing himself from | the coils of the rope. He rose to the surface l and fioated. few moments later his vesse came along, and he was pulled on board. Hs was almost completely exhausted. Ther the vessel put chase after the swordfish which was killed. It was the largest sword
 fish of the season. Its weight was 50' pounds.

A Young Girl Dies of Blood Folsom
 Ing After Much Suffering.

Ing Alter Much Suffering.
 JERSEY CrTY, July 17.-Laura Eagan of Erie street was bitten Thursday by a thou sand legged worm and died Tuesday evening from the effects of the bite. The insect be- longs to the family of centipedes, is about two inches long, of reddish color, and is very repulsive looking. It has sixty pairs of legs. On Thursday evening Miss Eagan and her mother went out and sat on the stone steps in front of their apartments. Sudden ly the young woman felt something creeping on her face. She quickly brushed her cheek with her hand. A thousand legged worm fell in her mothers lap dead. The following morning Miss Esgsn felt an itching on the spot, and sine scratched it. Not long after ward pimple with @ tiny hole in the center appeared on her right cheek near her mouth. That was within @ quarter of an inch Of the shot where she thought the insect was when che brushed it of. Little pains occasionally | scot through her cheek. Saturday morning | the pimple had increased in size and re- | sembled boil. It pained her all the time, | and her mother covered 1t with sulphur salve. All Saturday it increased in size | and the pain became intense. Saturday night her father told her to go to the corner | drug store and ask the druggist what to do. The druggist told her it was nothing but a boil, and advised her to put bread and milk poultiee on it, which she did. Sunday morning. all the right | side of her face was swollen and inaamed. She then told her father of the incident of Thursday night and said she guessed the in- sect had bitten her. Dr. P. P. Hoffman was called in and he decided that she was suffer- ing from blood poisoning, the result of the
 insects bite. He ordered the usual remedies
 Shortly after he had gone away she became delirious and he was recalled. He sent foI
 Dr. W. w. Varick and they had a coneulta- tion. Dr. Varick lanced the cheek and took from 1t two ounces of matter. The girl grew
 worse continually, and on Monday she had 8 | high fever. She became conscious for a little
 while and recognized her mother. Reaching out to her she pulled her head down on the
 bed and whispered, "Pray for me, mother '
 That was the last she said. She became un-
 conscious again shortly afterward and re.
 mained so until she died of exhaustion at | o'clock Tuesday evening.
