LEAPED FROM THE BRIDGE.

Francis McCarry Plungcs to His Death
from the Great Structure Between New
.~ York and Brooklyn.
New YORK, Nov. 23.-At 2:3O Sunday
afternoon man sprang out into the
air and down into the water from
the west cable of the bridge. There
were II number of persons on the
promenade in close proximity to
the man when he seemed to be
preparing for his fatal jump. The
man struck the water full upon his
breast, his arms outstretched and his
head sinking first. The foam produced
by the impact of his body upon the
water was dyed with his blood. He
lay for moment and then sank out
of sight Whether the man was
suicide or n seeker after the
fame of n successful ge-jumper
is not yet clear. There is evidence that
he was after the laurels of Steve Brodie,
but it is also possible that he had spent
his last dollar and wanted to end his
life. A challenge appeared in
an afternoon paper last week
it which it was announced
that Francis McCarry, of No. 81
Walworth street, Brooklyn, would
prove himself the peer of Steve Brodie
by jumping from the Brooklyn bridge
the following Sunday afternoon and
invited all lovers of bridge-jumping to
come and see. AT 8 o'clock Sunday
night Mrs. McCarry, an Englishwoman,
walked into the bridge police station
and identified the clothing as that of
her husband

heavy rains and a cyclone in this vicin-
ity Monday. Several houses in the city
were demolished and one at Temper
anceville, burying woman beneath it.
In the east end of the city great damage
is reported. Finley's run, which flows
into the Allegheny river at Brilliant
station, was transferred from an insig-
nificant stream into a raging torrent
and several houses near it's mouth were
either carried away bodily or shifted
from their foundations. At Shadyside,
in the Twentieth ward, the water came
down the hills, covering the streets sew
eral feet deep with mud and water and
bursting the sewers in several instances.
AT Soho the water rushed down Second
avenue in such volumes as to stop the
electric cars and business was entirely
suspended.
In Allegheny City great alarm was
felt and persons living in the vicinity OF
Butchers Run-the scene of the disas-
ter of 1874 when twenty or more per-
sons were drowned - began moving
their household effects. In the district
along the river cellars were flooded and
communication was only possible along
River street in boats. The neighbor-
hood of Woods Run was also partly
under water and dwellers on the south
side were deluged by torrents from

it will unquestionably be very heavy.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 24.-A cyclone
struck Washington at 1890 yesterday
afternoon and lasted about ten minutes.
1t was accompanied by driving rain
with vivid lightning flashes. To add to
the confusion fire bells were rung, oc-
casioned by buildings in various parts
of the city being blown down. The
worst of the storm visited the corner OF
Twelfth and Z streets and wrecked tho
entire corner. A building in the course
of erection and which had attained a
height of four stories, was blown in on
the back of several adjoining buildings.
A number of people were employed in
these buildings and upon the building
in the course of construction number
of brick layers were at work. The
workmen narrowly escaped death, but
in an extension of one of the buildings
crushed, Mr.. White, tailor, was in.
staptly killed, being crushed and man.
gled almost beyond recognition. Sew.
eral other employees in his establish
ment were seriously injured. At the
| White House about two tons of stone
coping on the top of the mansion was
blown down on the porch on the east
side, crushing it in. A window in the
East Room was blown in. The flagstaff
on top of the White House was snapped
off as if it was glass.
BALTIMORE, Md, Nov. ga disas
trous storm passed over Baltimore a
1:15 o'clock yesterday afternoon. Il
came up suddenly and it was over in {
few minutes, but it left ruin and wreck
in its wake. There have been no deaths
reported, but several persons were in
jured, some of whom may die.

BEAUTIFUL WOMEN AND FOOL MEN.

How eagerly men are engaged IN
the pursuit of beautiful women, and
how little do they dream of its brief
existence. This is undoubtedly in
obedience to supreme law growing
out of our organiza ton for who
does not love order, harmony, sym
metry and perfection ia all things :?
But in this eager pursuit it would
be we'll to remember that there are
qualities of far more importance than
mere personal charms. True, we
may be facinated with a dark, lust
rous and beautiful eye the crimson
blush of the cheek a graceful sym
metrical form; but, after all, the
inquiry should be: Is there soul
within! Is there elevation of
thought, generous principles, noble
purposes, a cultivated intellect? If
not, what else would woman of
beautiful personal appearance be but
doll or glided toy? How long
could man of genius be induced to
worship at such shrine? How
long before his affections would as
sumo the form OF hatred or con-
tempt. Powerful passions and
strong affections almost invariably
accompany the man of genius.
Hence it is clear that unless person
al charms envelop a cultivated min6
as we'll as the sterling qualities of
virtue, the noblest impulses of afec-
ton in sach a man will soon be ex.
tinguished and his fondest hopes
blasted in the selection of partner
for life. Nothing in this life is
more desirable to mar of superior
lntellectuallity and depth of soul
than the ardent affections of a good.
sensible woman, and on the other
hand, nc offering on earth is so ac-
ceptable to such woman as the
sincere affections of man Of genius
and tpAth.

HONOR your dear aged mother.
Time has scattered snowfakes on
her brow, plowod deep burrows on
her cheeks, but she is sweet and
beautiful yet The lips are thin
and sunken, but those are the lips
that have kissed many a hot tear
from childish cheeks, and these are
sweeteet lips in the world. The eve
is dim, yet it glows with the soft
radiance of holy love which can
never fade. All, yes; she is dear
old mother. The sands of life near
ly run out, but feeble as she is, she
will go farther and reach down low
er for you than all others on earth.
You cannot walk into a midnight
where she cannot see you; you can
not walk into prison whose bars will
keep her out; you cannot mount a
scaffold too high for her to reach
that she may kiss you and bless you
in evidence of her deathless love.
When the world despises and for
sakes, when it leaves you by the
wayside to die unnoticed, the dear,
good mother will gather you in her
her feeble arms and carry you home
and tell you all your virtues till you
almost forget your soul is disfgured
by vice. Love her tenderly and
cheer her declining years with holy
devotion.

Modern methods of teaching is
requiring too much of parents. One
reason for the very marked want of
mental self reliance in our boys and
girls is, l believe, the common or
almost universal habit of parents
helping their children to prepare
their home lessons. OF course pa
rents are willing to take trouble for
their children's good, but the ques-
ton IS whether it is for their good
to entirely deprive them of the pow
Ell of working for themselves and
bringing their full strength and will
power to bear upon conquering diff
fculties. If boy or girl cannot
learn lesson alone, there must be
one of three for it-either the pupil
is being very poorly taught and not
made to understand the lessons
which are being learned; or he
or she is being Dvertasked or
there is great deficiency in power
application, and industry and will
power all of which qualities are
absolutely necessary for. that pupil
to acquire, if he or she is to be a
strong, able, self-relying man or wo-
man. The habit of perpetually re-
lying on other people which chill
dren acquire, must show itself more
or less in their future character.
