4 OMAHA, Neb., Nov. 2o.-Thc special

taliated with 4 sledGe.hammcr blow
which drew blood from Burners
mouth. The men grappled and fell,
when Moriariiy rushed up and began
kicking Spccht. One OF the spectators
objected to his kicking man when he
was down, and when Morurity did not
desist the objcctor laid the belligercnt,
kicker low with a blow which cut an
ugly cash in Aloriarity's chin. BY this,

ON FIRE AT SEA.
Narrow Escape of Four Men From n
burning Tug.

Narrow Escape of -Four Men From n
Turning Tug.
CHICAGO, Nov. 29.-For over an hour
to-day out on wintry Lake Michigan
four men stared full in the face what
seemed TO be inevitable death. They
were aboard the tug John \. Miller,
which, wrapped in flames, was running
wild ut full speed in 4 great circle. The
men had only deck buckets to delay
the moment when apparently they
would have to decide whether to burn
or drown. The smoke and flame from
the burning craft was sighted by the
tug Welcome, but tho waves were run
ming so high that the Welcome was
long delayed. at last, however, she
succeeded III stcaming close to the fiery
Miller, and by almost auperhunlan
efforts taking the mea on board. The
rcscuers narrowly avcrted meeting the
fate that had awaited the rescued. Tie
Welcome took fire and only prompt
measures avcrted her destruction. The
four men who escaped from tho Miller
were Captain Potter Barry, Engineer
James Barry. Fireman Charles New
man and Il deck hand. The Welcome
was under the command OF Captain
Thomas Barry. The Welcomes re-
markahle chase for life after the uncon-
trollable and swift moving Miller took
place about five miles from shore.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Nov. 90. The
Pres tomorrow will publish tho fol
lowing:
To consult his medical adviser was
the prime reason for Alr. Blaino's trip
to Philadelphia. Mr.. Blaine learned
that hc was In better health and
strength now than lie was four years
ago, and tint six months or Il year
hence lie would be stronger than he is
now. lie learned further that he is as
good 4 man physically ut sixty years as
anybody else OF like Ngc.
DR.. Madison Taylor, the sccretary's
physician, thoroughly examined Mr..
Blaine, and he has been asked for Il
statement to put stop to many re-
ports to the contrary.
Mr.. Blaine is in better condition, Il
great deal better condition, than six
months ora year ago" said DR.. Taylor,
and SO lar rs | can definitely say from .
careful observation OF his condition, and
what was told me before began to at
tend him, Mr.. Blaine enjoys better
health than he did three or four years
ago. Six months hence he will be even
better than he is now"
"Whon | say he will be in even better
health in six months from now, l state
as n reason that person, say one who
has been i'll with typhoid lever, will
not recover all his former
strength Immediately upon recovery.
lie will have u heavy feeling in his
limbs, etc. This will gradually work oil
day by day, until ho finds himself
sturdy, quick and full OF bright health" !"

HORRIBLE ATROCITIES
Committed by Fiendlsl, Chinese on Eur
opcan Residents.

opcan Residents.
LONDON, Nov. G0-Tlie Chronicles cor
respondent at Tien Tsen says official re-
ports OF the Takowa massacre contain
details almost without parallel, even
in the history oil China. Previous dis
patches have given but 4 faint idea OF
what happened. The members oi tho
little Belgian mission had no opportun-
ity OF escaping. .gt
The slaughter commenced with the
killing OF native converts, many OF
whom were put to death with ticndish
cruelty. Children Of tender years were
seized by savages, hacked by knives
and roasted a. i huge fire. &as5. (
Aworse fato still bcicll the nuns. who
were subjected to the grosspst indigni-
ties, being brutally outraged by the
licnds, who afterwards Drained them
with massive clubs. Tic Belgian
priests were cruelty tortured. but met
their fatcs with Christian resignation.
One OF them had his heart and tongue
torn from his body by the savages in a
murderous frenzy. The most astound-
ing statement is that after the miscrc-
ants had been satiatcd with outrage
and slaughter, they were ieastcd and
fetcd by the leading Chinese mandarin
in the district. aE
The foreign diplomatic body at Pekin
are simply furious. The whole Euro
pean colony is boiling with indignation.

BosToS, November 29.-The fire de-

The family OF Patrick Kingsley lived at

room tables were in the same spot

both families were Mt dinner, having
Just 81. down, when Italians at work on
the Fellow street sewer, some 200 yards
away, fired q big blast. The trench wa.
not covered properly, and 4 section OF
rock weighing hall ton descended on
Kingsley's house, crashing throushthe
roof and garret, going clear through the
house, burying itself in the cellar. In
its descent it struck both dinner tables,
demolishing them, but njuring no one,
save slight cuts from flying splinters.
No vcstige OF the dinners remained.
The :irc department and ambulance
