European Climatic Cbanpe..

From statistics which NJ Flammarion
has gathered he shows that in every part
of France ard the Continent during the
past six years the Thermometer has been
getting lower and lower, the fall being
more noticeable in the spring than in the
other seasons of the year. Greas Britain
shows n similar excess of cold weather,
while strange to say Denmark, Norway,
Sweden and Russia, which we have been
accustomed to regard as cold countries,
have, during the past four years, had q
higher temperature than that to which
they are accustomed.
N. Flammarion goes farther back than
this, and quotes history to show that in
past years many trees which once -four
ished IN northern France are now found
only in the south, while others have disap-
peared altogether. Among these are named
the lemon, which no longer grows at
Languedoc; the orange, which Lls deserted
Roussillon, and the LombaJly poplar,
which has disappeared from the country
altogether. He also points out that many
noted vintages have ceased to be- owing to
the impossibility of growing the grapes
under the altered climatic conditions
There is not now single vineyard, he tells
US, to be found north of T aris.-Chambers'

Mr. Blaine IS in letter condition, = great

ALL WENT DOWN.
The Wrecked Brig Tahiti is Re-
ported Floating Bottom up.
MUST HAVE BEEN CAPSlZED.
She Carried Gilbert Islanders Under Con
tract for Work in Mexico 1.-TWO
Hundred and SMety-One
Lives Lost.

SAN FRANCISCO CAL, Nov. ga dis
patch from Manzanilla, Mexico says the
American steamer Roseville has ar
rived there and reports passing the
wrecked brig Tahiti at sea- She
was floating bottom up, and the cap
tain of the Rockville says she must have
been capsized. The rigging had been cut
away on the port side, apparently to pre-
vent this.
The Tahiti created a sensation September
80 last by putting into brakes Bay, near
this city, in distress. She had
30 Gilbert islanders on board under con-
tract for work in Mexico at starvation
wages. These men Were practically slaves,
and There was much ak OF seizing the
Vessel. Collector Phelps, however. decided
he had no right to detain her
aud the brig left. 1t seems almost certain
that all on board have been lost, as the
ships boats were still with her and nothing
has been heard of any of the survivors.
The wreck must have happened at least a
month ago. Besides the islanders the
vessel had on board officers and crew of
twenty men, making a total Of 2e1 on board
the Inflated craft.

BRITISH GREED.
Trouble in Liberia Thought to be Fo-
mented by EngIi hmm.


LONDON, Nov. 29.-Following are latest
advices from Monrovla, Liberia: Every
body here is excited On account of ad-
vices 10 the effect that several
of the native tribes to the north
of Grand Cape Mount have re-
belled against Liberian authority and
placed themselves under the protection Of
the English at Sierra Leone. The advis-
ability of sending an armed expedition
against these people is now being C nsid-
cred by the president and his cabinet Off
GERS. There is much difference of opin-
ion. however, as to the wisdom
of an attempt to chastise these tribes,
inasnuch as the best informed are
disposed to believe that they have been en-
outraged to act as they have by the Eng
fish at Sierra Leone. 1t is an open secret
that the English colopiStS o. Free Town
have long looked with covetous eyes toward
the rich country which runs along the
northern boundary of the Liberian territory,
and it is thought that the Sierra Leone En-
glish have caused these tribes to become
troublesome in order TO bring about compli-
cations through which they may be enabled
to reap a large slice, if not ali the desired
lands. President johnson. it is well known,
is no coward, so it is safe TO say that the
Liberian government will not suffer itself
to be insulted, nor its authority to be made
light Of There is every reason to believe
that troops will be sent immediately against
these uuruly savages. If these tribes
secure the protection of the English it is
more than probable that grave troubles will
arise which may be SO far reaching in their

A BARE-KNUCKLE FIGHT.
Two Pennsylvania Miners Fight Four
Rounds, Ending in Death - The
Ring, Turf and Diamond.
A Fatal Encounter.

MoNoNGAHELA CITY, PA, July 2S.-This
city is in 4 great state of excitement over a
prize fight that turned into murder.
Harry Boyd and John Myford, iv-
ing at Black Diamond, mining
town outside of the city limits, had quar-
rel some days ago about some trivial mat
ter, though it is supposed jealousy over a
girl was the real cause of their difference.
After their first quarrel they were
constantly pickering, and to-day it was de-
cided that they should fight it out accord
ing to the prize ring custom. The two, ac-
companied by several friends, pitched
a ring and stripped for a bare
knuckle encounter. They were both
young fellows, and almost equally matched,
though Boyd seemed to have the best Of it
in science. Three terrific rounds were
fought, at the end of which both were
bleeding profusely. Both men came
up for the fourth round grimly,
and it was evident they intended
to do each other all possible harm. A few
preliminary blows were struck when Boyd,
seeing an opening, rushed in and delivered
tremendous blow on Myford's
neck just over the jugular. Myford
staggered back few steps and
fell to the ground insensible. He was
picked up by his friends, but never re
covered consciousness, and expired an
hour later.
Boyd came to this city and surrendered
himself. An inquest will be held to-lnor-

Davis Scarold.

The work upon the scafold upon which
J. w. Davis is to meet his death on August
10 was completed yesterday, and the work
ings of the concern thoroughly tested A
sack of sand weighing about 200 pounds
was tied to rope rived over the cross piece
next the ceiling, the weight resting upon
the trap doors. A quick pull of the lever
removed the bars from beneath the trap.
and the weight shot through like a fash,
being checked with ''the dull thud" peculiar
TO such instruments of death. The trap
was tested several times, and in each case
worked smoothly and easily, SO there is lit
tie doubt Davis will be hurled to hades in a
thoroughly workInanlike manner All pre-
cautions are being taken by which bungiing
will be impossible, and though this is the
first execution in Tarrant county for years,
and the sheriff and his officers may be con-
sidered uovices in the matter, there is little
doubt that the execution will be a thoroughly
well conducted and expeditions one.

Dallas was at the jail yesterday, and two
United States prisoners, j. d. Hooten and
A. Redders, were delivered to him and
were taken to Dallas in the afternoon.
Barney Morrison was perfectly rational
yesterday, and the actual extent of his san
lty or insanity is a question. At times he
is apparently as sane as anyone. His cell
is located where he has full view of the
under part of Davis scaffold, which APP
pears to have great fascination for him,
and he passes considerable portion of his
time with his head through the chuck hole
of his cell door, watching the machine and
the visitors who call to inspect it.

time yesterday en- route to Weatherford
with prisoner captured in Mason county
and wanted in Parker county on charge

That man BRANDED has gotten great deal
of sympathy, evidenced by groceries,

left him to starve. As long as he simply
distorted facts in regard to my share in
bringing about his distress l remained
silent, but now that he poses as starving

aGerman lady, who had been helping them,
eBfandel exclaimed tragically: This
Is the way with Germans; they let their
capR)rymen starve," the room at the time
'ueing full of the charitable ladies Of this
city, it behooves me to state that neither
BRANDED or his family are fond of work,
hence their distress. Germans are as char
liable and as good-natured as people of any
other nation, but they will not help a lazy
man or an migrate, be he German or of any
OF VI nation, and such said BRANDED showed
