Utica On. W Observer.
The following extract from letter
written by Utica lady, who is spend
ing some time at Chautauqua, will
doubtless be read with no little interest
by many of the ladies remaining at
home. She writes:
"Chautauqua has new fad, and it
has taken hold with grip that is as
enthusiastic as IL is firm, and is as con-
tagious as Chautauqua fads usually are
II used to be said that the young ladies
who come here for the summer were
the ones who write TO some of the
newspapers for horoscopes, and to others
for cure for freckles. Well, these girls
have either all been married off or have
died, for those here this year are swim
ming on the high tide of dress reform,
and, under the leadership of Mrs.
Frank Stuart Parker of Chicago, pro.
pose to revolutionize tho world. The
first step taken in the matter was by the
'Woman's Club which held a secret
conference, presided over by another
reyolutionist named Emily Huntington
Miller, and from which every man was
excluded. Mrs. Parker took the floor
and exhibited an array of dresses, skirts,
tights, Undertaking, &c, both on and
of her splendid figure in a way that
oaptivated every woman present, and
there were great many Of us, ] assure
YOU. All the time she was showing her
wonderful clothing she was carrying on
harangue againt the present mode Of
dressing that made every corset, every
waistband, every garter and every
clumsy petticoat in the room ache. AS
she proceeded she warmed up 10 the
subject and became so enthusiastic that
she got both feet in one leg of d.
vided skirt, and then we all laughed. +"

A LARGE BARGE SUNK.
She Sprung a Leak and Went Down With
IS Tons of Iron.

The large barge Loring Monroe
sprung leak AT the wharf OF the Seidel
81 Hastings Company on Saturday
night, having on board SO tons of iron,
and since then all efforts to raise her
have been unavailing. She kept grad
ually sinking as the water poured in
upon her until she was almost sub
merged.
The barge was consigned by Daniel
Richards Il Co., iron manufacturers Of
New York, about 10 days ago, freighted
with 40 tons of scrap iron and cast iron
borings for the Scidol & Hastings Com
pany Of this city. The cargo arrived at
the wharf in front of the Seidcl &
Hastings foundry, and ON Saturday last
ut noon all of the freight had been re-
mayed except 3S tons. With this heavy
tonnage removed il was not expected
that tie barge woald succumb under
the pressure Of the small cargo remain
ing.
Towards Saturday evening, however,
she began sinking, and in a short time
she was filled to the brim with water.
Officers of United States Lloyds' Marine
Insurance Company were notified OF the
barge's disaster at once, and the Mason
NTeCh1n5 company was ulspatcneu 10
the scene. The wrecking company de-
tailed twenty men, under command Of
Captain West, who have been at work
upon the barge since Monday morning
and have not yet succeeded in raising her
up from her present condition. The
men were still at work pumping the
LARGE volume of water out this morning,
which diminished very slowly under
the pressure OF the huge steam pump.
The barge is thought to have been
strained about the sides in some man
ner, and this caused her to spring leak
with the remainder Of her cargo. The
wrecking company hope to have her
hoisted in day or so.
The barge has capacity of $50 tons,
and is 100 feet long. 17a feet beam.

PORT TOBACCO, MD, Aug. 12.- Early
yesterday morning an attempt was
made by body of armed men to force
an entrance into the county Jail for the
purpose of lynching Rye, who shot
young Wheeler, the school teacher,
about week ago. The party tried to
force an entrance through the front
door, and succeeded in breaking out
one of the outside panels, when they
found the door was lined with heavy
sheet iron. The guard on the inside
opened fire on the crowd as soon as the
attempt was made and fired 81 shots in
quick succession. The mob withdrew
and left town. 1t is not known
that any one was hurt. 1t is
supposed the lynching party came
from Nanjemoy, where the homicide
occurred and included about 80 we'll
armed and disguised men. 1t is not
thought that another attempt will be
made by the lynchers to get into the
Jail, but that the law will be allowed to
take its course.
