the cove at Gloucester Point, was hauled

Canadensis, aad, in fact, at every station
from Henryville TO Iobyhanna there IS
more or less fair trout fishing. Near Mil
ford. Pennsylvania, and Dingman's Ferry
are some trout streams, but do not know
ANYTHING about them personally. The
classic Beaverkill, the Willewemoc, and
the Neversink have improved in the last
few years, and now afford many miles OF
delightful fly 6shing. Theeast and west
branches OF the Delaware River and their
tributaries are said to afford good fishing
and the Monganp, beyond Port Jeryis
is also well spoken of. Near William 8
port, Pennsylvania, are many famous
trout streams worth visiting, such as the
Loyal SOCK, Sinnemahonin9. Kettle

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Aug. ia pnth OF
smoulderine ruins two blocks wide and six
blocks long is the result of the fire which
started at midnight. It caught in Knight
d Co.'s grocery, adjoining the large Hub
bard building. and in very short sime tho
block was mass OF flames. Thence they
were carried diagonaliy across to tho Tre-
mont hotel, thence to Col. Burbridge's
block. The fire spread on all sides, being
famed by a stiff breeze. Nothing could
stay the flames until exhausted for want Of
material. They were stopped at Beaver
street on the north, Mt Laura street on tho
west, and at Ocean street on the east. At
seven this morning over twenty-five busi-
ness houses had been burned and over forty
dwellings. From the Hubbard block the
fire jumped across the street to the Smith
building and the Mather building. In tho
smith building large amount of dyna-
mite was stored. This exploded and
started fires in blocks away to tho north
west. The sound was not heard, but the
effect OF the explosion was seen nifty miles
away. In the city the effect WAS stunning.
Men foil in tho streets and many were in
iured; Plate glass, for four or five squares.
was shattered .and sidewalks covered with
broken glass. The fremen could have
stopped the fire at this point before the ex-
ploslon. which rendered them almost help
less. Residences, stores and hotels broke
into flames and the fire became a terrible
confiagration and was not stopped until af-
ter daylight
The total number of buildings of all
kinds burned, is fiftv-fve, and the total
loss about half million dollars. The in
surance will be small compared with the
total loss. No lives were lost.

Uproar In u Chicago Court-A millionaire

CHICAGO. Aug. 18.-To-day in crowded
court room, Mrs. Edward Mcmahon horse
whipped millionaire and his lawyer, and
then tainted in her husbands arms. The
millionaire was Peter Smith, contractor,
and the lawyer was p. McHugh. The cause
of the assault was the reading of
deposition by Canadian detective
impugning Mrs. McMahon's chastity. The
horse whipping is the climax of series of
sensations growing out of q long stan ding
family quarrel. McMahon's marriage
some months agoto his second wife, who
created the sensation to-day, was very dis
latter the wife of Millionaire Smith. Nc
Mahon's son had fortune of $4,000.
1t was asserted that the step
mothers chief object in marry
ing Mcmahon was to obtain posses
sion of this sum. Mcmahon and wife on
one side, and his mother, sister and Smith
on the other. had charged each other with
attempting little Milton's (the son's)
death by poison to prevent the opposing
parties securing his custody. The Canadi-
an deposition read was in furtherance OF
the legal fight by the Smith faction. Short
ly after. entering Judge Kohlsaat's court
room to-day Mrs. McMahon walked quickly
to where Smith and McHugh were sitting.
and with a black snake whip. before the
astonished spectators or the bailitf could
interfere, slashed Smith and McHugh re-
peatedly across the face and neck. Judge
Kohlsuat took no action in the matter, and
intmated that the child would not be given
to either faction.
