THE BORE IN THE AMAZON.

A Curious Phenomenon Observed in Great ~ss- Rivers.
 The "bore" in great rivers is curious phenomenon concerning which we get some interesting information from the recent United States supplement to the sailing directions of the east coast of South America. The bore on the Ama- zon seems to partake of the character of a tidal wave. It sometimes occurs in the western branch of the Amazon near spring tides, but generally confines it- self to the shallows and af1uents, and is not dangerous in depths greater than four fathoms
 It announces its presence by. a roar w.4ich is heard at distance of several miles. This ominous noise increases as the wall of water approaches, and then the front of the bore, from five to twelve feet in height, surges in with breaking force and spreads over the shallow waters off Maraca island and the estuaries of the Araguri river. The velocity is from twelve to fifteen miles an hour. Strange as it may seem, the phenomenon never develops except at low tide, and is most frequent and de- struct1ve at the equinoxes. The Chinese rivers have the most remarkable bores. Then comes the Amazon.
 Sometimes three or four of these great waves dash up the river in quick suc- cession. The explanation of the phe- nomenon is easy. It is partly due to the trades and partly to the prevalence of strong winds, peculiarly favorable to the formation of wall of water. The storm wave of a cyclone seems to unite with an exceptionally high tidal wave

GLENDALE'S VICTIM
The Murdered Girl Identified
 by Her Uncle.
SAID TO BE MATILDA HABER.
She Left Her Home in Connecticut With
 Her Lover

She Took Over S7OO With Her-The
 Money Is S1issine-It is Supposed She
 Was Robbed Before Being Killed A
 Search for the Missing Lover Now Be-
 in Made by the Police.
 NEW YORK, Aug. 4-The body of the girl who was found murdered at Glen dale, L. l., Sunday, has been identified by Charles R. Weber of New York as his niece, Matilda Ha ber, of North Haven Conn.,, who left that place Saturday morning in company with a man named John Habe.
 The girl, who was infatuated with Habe, inherited several thousand dollars from her mother and had still 5000 to her credit in the First National Bank of this city.
 When she left North Haven she had $S5O on her person, and Weber believes she was murdered for the money.
 The New York and Brooklyn Police are looking for Habe.
 According to Weber's description Habe is stout, dark complexioned man, aged 50, about five feet ten inches tall, with heavy eyebrows, eyes close together, black mustache and goatee. He was dressed in 8 light gray suit, standing collar, striped necktie, light colored fiat top derby hat, and wore heavy watch and chain
 The description of Habe tallies very closely with that given by William H. Lake, of Glendale, of the man whom he saw with woman resembling the dead girl, near the scene of the ghastly dis covery of last Sunday.
 All attempts to locate the actual scene of the murder have proven fruitless. There ia sion nf SfrI1o p1a hor in the vicinity. The woman was un7 doubtedly killed at a distance and car ried to the spot where her corpse was dis covered.

Stopped by a Deputy Sheriff.

W1LKEsBARRE, Pa., Aug. "A meetin g of the directors of the Pennsylvania, Le- high & Eastern Railroad was to have been held here during the morning for
 the purpose of electing president and six directors of that road. A deputy sheriff,
 however, appeared just before the meet
 ing was to assemble and served an in junction on behalf of Jacob Newburger,
 of New York, and the meeting was aban- doned. MT. Newburger, who owns a majority of the stock of the road, claims that the meeting was an attempt to secure fraudulent action, and that he would not be able to vote his stock, as it was tied up in the New York courts, the case now pending on appeal. Defendan ts claim that the stock held by Newburger is illegal, having been secured by fraud.

KENTUCkYS ELECTION.
The New COnstitution Adopted by a Lars
 Majority.


 Majority.
 LOUISVILLE, Ky, Aug. 4.-Yesterday's was the last election by viva voce vote that will ever be held in Kentucky. The new constitution, despite it's powerful opposition of railroads, banks and cor porations generally has been carried by an overwhelming majority, and the last State constitution that still recognized slavery is @ thing of the past.
 The new constitution will tax rail roads, banks and stock companies, abolish the office of Public Printer, provide for a secret ballot system and municipal re- forms, and also carries an anti-l lottery clause which will wipe out the half-dozen lottery charters now being operated, with semi-daily drawings at Covington and Louisville, in the interests of "policy" games throughout the United States generally.
 Reports from the cities and towns throughout the State indicate that the Democrats have about the usual majori- ty, probably 10000. Indications are that the Alliance, or Peoples Party, vote is very small, despite the fact that every effort was made for two months pre- ceding the election to organize the AL Hance men in this State, all the leaders of that movement of national reputation, including Senator Peffer and Jerry Simpson of Kans Taubeneck of Hi nois, and Davis of Texas, having stumped the State thoroughly. The greater part of the Alliance vote seems to have been drawn from the Republican party. The vote for and against the Constitution was without partisan sig nificance.
 Later returns indicate that the vote for the constitution is fully five times as great as that against it.

A CURIOUS SECT,
Grange Beliefs of Certain Inhabitants oa
 Asiatic Turkey.

Asiatic Turkey.
 The Levant Herald states that the official paper of Bassorah gives some particulars on the subject of the tribe of Saibi, established in that province of Asiatic Turkey. 1.-The Saibis," it says, ''are monotheists; their faith is that of Yahya (St. John) and they believe in all the prophets, who, according to them, have come into this world each for his own chosen people. The Saibis make their devotions at morn and even, kneeling on the ground On Sundays and at Bairam the number of prescribed prayers is eight; these the devotees make turning their faces to the north. Their books are written in the Syrian dialect. They fast only during the first ten days of Ramazan, from the appear ance of the moon to the setting of the sun. In the way of meat they only eat mutton, which must be previously washed in the river. The flesh of all other animals, including birds, is not touched by them. They also always avoid eating food prepared by persons not belonging to their sect. When by any fortuitouS circumstance they con- sider themselves soiled they wash them selves in the river. The women, too, purify themselves in the waters of the river, and there, also, the marriage ceremony is celebrated. The, Saibis declare that after death the soul lives and will be rewarded and punished according to it's deserts. Sunday is day of rest among them. It is their habit to allow their beard and whiskers to grow. A Saibi can, if he so wishesp marry four women, but not more, and divorce is also recognized institution among them. Cousins may marry each other. On Sundays at Bairam and on returning from journey it is obliga- tory upon the Saibis to take plunge into the river after saying the pre- scribed prayers"

Perhaps you don't quite understand the meaning of "broken lots" as ap- piled to clothing It means a suit not all made up from the same piece of goods. It doesn't mean that the trous- CTS won't harmonize with the coat or that any one of the articles will be out of place when worn with the other. On the contrary, some exceedingly be- coming combinations can be made at prices that astonish the purchaser. Broken lots and shattered prices go together you will find if you call at our store this month and want a suit for yourself or boy.
