DYNAMITE DID IT.

A lo-pound Cartridge stirs Up the
Fig Island Wreck.
The lsborers on the Savannah, Florida
and Western railway, and others in that
vicinity. were startled by a loud explosion
between 5 and 6 o'clock last night. The
earth trembled as if from the vibrations of
miniature earthquake. Some who were
not apprised differently thought it was an
earthquake. 1t was not. however. The
shock was caused by the explosion of dyna-
mite in the river near the dredRe Tomichlchi.
A l0-pound dynamite cartridge had
been inserted under the old wreck men-
toned in the MORNING NEWS several days
ago. The wires attached to the cartridge
were connected with the dredge and as the
latter moved off the dynamite was ex-
ploded with great success.
The report was followed by great COLI
umn OF water which shot into the air along
with portions of the old wreck, which after
being detached floated off down the river.
After few seconds the water over the spot
was as placid as if nothing had occurred to
mar its mirror like surface.

TOOK TO TIE STREET.

An Intoxicated Motorman Sends His
Ger Flying OF the Track.
What might have been a very
serious accident occurred yesterday on
the Electric railway line about noon.
The car coming toward the mar
ket jumped the track at the corner
Of st. Julian and Bull streets and ran for
about twenty feet on the asphalt pavement
The trouble was not in the car, but with the
motorman, who was in such an exhilarated
condition that he was unfit to handle a
car.
As the car entered Bull street the motor
man ''let her CO." and it dashed around
the curve at Hull a. Lathrop's bank at full
speed. AS 1t reached the end Of the curve
it jumped the track and shot across the
asphalt pavement, landing against a tree box
on the north side OF Bryan street. A horse
and buggy bad been standing by the tree
a few minutes before, but had been moved.
Fortunately no one was on the street at the
time Of the accident.
The sudden landing Of the car almost in
their offices caused q commotion among the
Bryan street brokers and real estate men,
It was said that the car had jumped into
the brokerage business.
Chief of Police Green. who witnessed the
accident, arrested the motorman and sent
him to the barracks. The motorman
resisted and chung to the railing of the car,
and finally had to be choked off. The con-
ductor disappeared. Chief Green intended
to put him under arrest also, as he as we'll
as the motorman was said to have
been under the influence Of liquor.
There were no passengers in the car
The accident shows the danger of the
electric cars going around curves at high
rate Of speed. The wonder is that some
sucn accident has not occurred before.
There has been considerable complaint
already OF the reckless running Of the cleo
trio cars on both lines.

st. Simon's Bar.
The Norwegian bark Rondo, which put
into this port leaking, caused by the vessel
striking on St.Simon's bar while coming out
from Brunswick, was surveyed yesterday
morning. The board consisted Of Capt. L.
Virgins, port-warden, and Capts. Olsen of
the Norwegian bark CLINT and Frohlich of
the Norwegian bark Onward.
The pumps were sounded and It was found
tnat the vessel was leaking at the rate of
two inches an hour The board was unable
TO examine or get at the leak, owing to the
absence OF a diver. As it would be neces-
sary for the vessel to discharge her cargo
IN order to haul out it was advised that
the captain have the vessel towed to New
York by seagoing tug with steam pump,
where the vessel and cargo can be properly
handled and looked after.
The Rondo is considered seaworthy enough
Tor such trip, and the crew have signified
its willingness to so.

the mythically united brothers in THE
Corsican Brothers, !" Mr.. Mantell has won a
success even greater than that achieved in
Monbars," and his impersonation Is uni
versally praised. This production of Du-
mas celebrated romance will be similar in
every respect TO that given by Mr. ManteIl
at the Fourteenth street theater, New York
city, last winter. and all the handsome
scenery, costumes, properties, tricks, traps,
visions, vampires, slides, apparitions and
other mechanical effects prepared for that
successful revival will be employed in this
presentation, assuring a perfect perform
ance. s.3
As every play-goer knows, Mr. ManteIrs
forte consists in the suggestion of an intense
but restrained emotion, of an emotion
made strenuous by an exceptional combipa-
ton Of circumstances, but dominated by the
powerfuloperaUion Of a controlling volition.
The storyrof 1.-THE Corscan Brothers, with
its approximation and fatalism, calls this
special faculty into active and impressive
play, and the idea OF man weighed upon
by an impending doom, foreseen but una
voidable. could hardly be more forcibly or
skillfully expressed than 1t is by Mr.. Man.

A Prettx Phrase.

The Italians have pretty phrase to ex'
press that fine kind of tact which is indie.
pendent of education. They call it "the
intellect of love" and they hayecrystallized
in those four words one of the most ethe-
real, but also one of the most potent, char.
acteristics of human nature. Not the most
liberal education gives this intellect of love
where the materials have been denied by
nature; not the most restricted range OF
knowledge destroys it where it is there by
the constitution of things.
People who have this intellect of love
are as slow to take offense as to give it
They have none of that prickly heat oi
temperament which fushes out into a
moral eruption at the least contrariety Of
circumstances. They make allowances fol
weather, health, disappointments, annoy
ances, misunderstanding and they give
the benefit of the doubt on the charitable
side whenever it is possible to frame q
doubt at all. They never quarrel. Even il
things 60 badly, as by reason of malice and
Misrepresentation they do sometimes with
the best in the world, they suffer quietly
and do not make bad worse. New York

There's a wide difference
between the help that's talked of
and the help that's guaranteed.
Which do you want, when you're
buying medicine?
If you're satisfied with words, you
get them with every blood-purifier
but one. That one is DIR. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. With
that, you get guarantee. If it
doesn't help you, you have your
money back. On this plan, medi-
cine that promises help is pretty
sure to give il.
But it's because the medicine is
different, that it's sold differently.
It's not like the sarsaparillas, which
are said to be good for the blood
in March, April, and May. At all
seasons and in all cases, it cures
permanently, as, nothing else can,
all the diseases arising from a tor
pid liver or from impure blood.
It's the best blood purifier, and
it's the cheapest, no matter how
many doses are offered for a dollar.
With this, you pay only for the
good you get.
Can you ask more?

uumbllng the naaghty Jan,.or.

A little girl whose parents recently came
from the country to live in q big New York
fiat house was watully disappointed to
learn that her pet dog Fido had been left
behind with a neighbor because the haugh-
ty janitor would not allow dogs to be kept
In his castle by any Of his wretched sub
jects. Unlike the other children in the fiat
house, she never learned to humble herself
before the awful dignity of this magnate,
but always stuck her tongue out at him to
show that she was just as "high toned" as
he Consequently the janitor meditated
on revenge.
So one day when she came to him meek
ly and told him that an uncle had given
her dear little pug dog and begged that
she might be allowed to keep it in her fiat
he fairly roared with righteous indigna
tion and demanded its instant election.
She assured him that it would not disturb
anybody, that it would not be allowed to
wander in the halls, and that it would bite
no one in the fiat. He was inexorable, and
glad Of the chance to be so.
The child began to cry, and all the Other
children in the fiat house gathered around
to hear the result. "Well, you'll have to
take him away yourself then,' she sobbed.
Il never could do it. The man was only
too willing, and up the stairs he started in
pompous haste, followed by all the other
children, awestruck at the retribution
that had fallen on the only child that had
ever dared to "cheek" the janitor. The
fearful child opened the door of her father
sitting room, and there on mat by the
fireplace lay the dearest little pug dog,
asleep, with bright little ribbon around
his throat. The little owner threw herself
in paroxysm oftears on sofa, the heart
less janitor advanced upon the dog, and the
other children watched from the hall.
Quick as flash the great man swooped
on the little dog and raised it from the
floor. A squeal of laughter came from the
sofa, chorus of whoops and yells from
the hall and the big fellow folded his ears
and skunk away.
The dog was terra Gotta, and as natural
as life.-New York Tribune.
