SAN Francisco, July 29.-The Austra-
Gan steamer brings news of a serious
nature from the Malay Archipelago.
The steamer Catterthun, which arrived
at Sydney. N. S. W., reports that when
she touched at the island of Timor there
was rumor current that the island of
Sangir had been destroyed by a volcanic
eruption, and that the whole population,
comprising $4,000 souls, had persisted.
through masses OF debris. The Sangir
islands lie to the north Of Celebes and
are about fifty in number. The three
largest islands are Great Sangir, Spiauw
and Tagolandav. Great Sangir is the
island supposed to have been destroyed
by the volcanic eruption. The island
had an area of 275 square miles and
was divided into four Kingdoms. The
total population was supposed TO be
about l3 900 or l4,O00. In the north
western part of the island toward the
great mountain of Abu, or the ash noun
tain, which has often been in eruption,
causing much damage and loss of life.
The natives regarded it with supersti-
tious awe and whenever they heard the
rumbling that preceded an outbreak they
resorted to certain mystic rites to oppose
the diety of the mountain. In March of
1856 there was terrible eruption and
streams OF lava and boiling water were
poured forth from the crater. The rich
platations ON the mountain side were
carried away and 5000 lives were lost.
The Sangirese belong to the Malay race,
are well made and brave, lazy and dirty.
The government is monarchical, some

Northern Heavens Brilliant With the

From the Chicago News, 1sth.l
An electrical storm of unusual severity
swept over the central and eastern por-
tions of the United States Saturday be-
tween IL 80 O'Clock a. m. and p. IN.
Telegraph wires refused to work and
business at the Western Union and the
Postal telegraph companies was badly
interrupted all day. Following the cleo
trical storm 8 brilliant aurora borealis
illuminated the sky, reaching around
the northern horizon and almost touch
ing the equator with its east and west
points. Forming first in Il bank OF dark
green, a rich arch was reared tha,
reached its highth, halfway to the zen

shooting up from this were pale green
shafts, while sheets of yellow light
flashed and waved hehind the phenom-

appeared q little to the west of north
and fioated away to the west, changing
its color like the picture from a dissolv-
ing-view camera to Il pale pink, II deep
yellow and black to mellow green. At
10 80 o'clock the elements gathered fol
final display. and shooting up like q
pointed wall came the aurora. To the
west section swung off, formed horse
shoe and for two minutes perfect rep
resentation of an immense waterfall was
made. In the north sheets of yellow
lightning were woven through the col
umns, spurs and streamers. Then the
rosy tint of the setting sun burned
through this vast curtain and the fires
slowly went out. In the telegraph Of
fees trouble had been experienced all
day. Superintendent of Telegraph Con-
gor OF the Illinois Central worked like u
beaver with his wires. ''As soon as /
got one line to working said he, 'an-
l-other would fall down and in short
time the first was just as bad as it was
before. The short lines gave us as much

CHICAGO, July 29.-As the time for
the official opening of the worlds fair
approaches there are pressing reasons
why the late lamented attempts of GER
tain citizens associations tdnprove
Chicago's external ;tppearan1 should
not be forgotten. For years spasmodic
efforts have been revived at intervals
sustained for II period and then weakly
relinquished. Now at the time when
not ourselves alone but visitors from all
over the civilized world are concerned,
there is additional cause for persistency.
1t is dangerous folly to fiatter ourselves
that things are well enough as they are.
The streets need cleaning and the alley.
ways, which are now repositories for
garbage, must be made deceEt. The
porvincial custom. OF tying horses to the
curb is yet in vogue. The outlying en-
virons are afflicted with pavements
which are little better than the trackless
prairie, and there are undulating side
walks which teeter briskly when one
steps on the wrong end of plank. and
in addition to these troubles we have
our old enemies the smoke nuisance, the
sewerage nuisance and the grade cross
ings. Now, if ever, is the time for
long. strong, persistant endeavor to
bring about reform. Chicago must
spruce up. 1t must be clensed and
sweetened. No street which will give
place for a puddle of water is fitly
paved. The dfngy, acrid atmosphere
must be purified, and we hope it will
not be many years before that viscid
pool of fluid nastiness, the Chicago river,
will be wished as clean as roadside
spring. When properly cleaned and
paved this city will be one of the most
impressive and palatial in the world.
Without the instant and persistent pro-
secution of the reforms mentioned, how
ever, it runs the risk of being called at
thevery least, "a mighty and enterprise g
town in-her progress. but a slattern in
her dress

Review. The Helena Independent
has reached the astonishing conclusion
that the hope for free silver lies in the
election of Grover Cleveland. Henry
Willard. who will get up in the middle of
the night to talk monometallism, is
equally confident that the hope of the
gold standard lies in the same direction.
He has contributed already $4,000 to
the work OF booming Cleveland before
the Chicago convention, and has prom
ised $40 900 more for the conpaign. In
view of the fact that Cleveland and VIII
lard are close tillicums, and the addition
al fact that every monetary utterance OF
the ex-president is for the single gold
standard, we rather incline to belief
that the Helena paper is a chump.

The Board of Trade Buildings Damage
Light
The accident at the new board of trade
building proved, upon investigation yester-
day, to be quite different from what was at
first supposed, and instead Of the damage
amounting to several hundred dollars, as
the Waterman reported, it is really only the
cost OF replacing few broken panes of
glass. 1t is one OF those accidents that
frequently occur in buildings in the course
of erection through carelessness Of work-
men.
The skylight had not been completed and
the worKmen put in few temporary nails
to hold q section Of the skylight frame till
they could complete it yesterday morning.
The weight Of the frame was too much Tor
the nails. which were lightly tackled in so
as TO allow easy removal, and being showed
out caused the frame TO shift and displace
the glass, which falling through the opeu
corridors to the first floor made the crash
that the watchman thought was the entire
skylight falling in.
Only few panes Of glass fell, and the
skylight Is otherwise unchanged. La fact
ie IS 1mpossi bic for the skyiight itself 70
fall when completed. as it is made entirely
OF iron, excepting the glass, and is pro-
tected by iron cross rods. There Is no brick
work near the skylight, nor anything else
that could In anyway become looseaed or

An Order Issued to Exhume Mrs. Hein-
eman's Body.
The body of Mrs. Heineman, who is sup
posed to have been poisoned, was not ex-
humod Tuesday, because the physicians
who agreed TO undertake the work found
they had no legal right without being au-
thorized by the coroner. This officer has
no authority 80 order an autopsy without
an affidavit being made by a responsible
party that there is good reason to suspect
an unnatural death.
A gentleman oonversant with the CIR
cumstRnces of the woman's death and
willing to do this was found yesterday. He
swore out the affidavit before Acting
Coroner Nnughtin, who at once passed an
order for the autopsy. Solicitor General
Fraser will to-day name the physicians he
desires 90 perform the operation, and
Acting Coroner Naughtin will serve legal
processes upon them 20 carry out his orders.
These steps insure the exhumation and
examination of Mrs. Heineman's body either
this afternoon or tomorrow. Solicitor
General Fraser Is determined to have

a Log That Has Cost the Ocean
Steamship Company Many Dollars.
A huge Cypress log, IS feet long. with part
Of the branches on, was dragged out Of the
river at the Ocean Steamship Company's
wharves yesterday.
The log has cost the company a great deal
Of money by breaking the propellers off its
steamers. On she last trip out the City of
Augusta lost two blades, but it was not dis
covered until the arrived in New
York. Fortunately, as the steamer
was leaving her dock here,
Capt. H. M. Branch noticed that the pro-
peller struck somsthing and he located the
spot. When the damage to the Augusta
was repaired he called the attention OF the
United States engineer corps 10 the obstruo-
ton and a dredge was sent to the wharves
and the log dug up The log was SCARED
with the marks Of she propeller blades, and
1t also has deep out around it made by she

BE KEPT HIS EYE ON 1T.

A Negro Who ObsYed Instructions
Too Well TO Suit COL Spencer.
School teachers have a little story over
which they have an occasional laugh at the
expense OF Col. s. B. Spencer, principal of
the Chatham grammar school, who is now
enjoying his vacation among friends In At
lanta.
The colonel left for the capital the night
after the school closed. He got to the depot
some time before the train started. Enter
lug his car he deposited his large and snugly
packed vnlise on q seat. A negro was on
the car. Naturally supposing him 30 be a
train hand, Col. Spencer directed his atten-
ton TO the valise, saying:
keep your eye on this for me-"
He then left the car. When he returned
the negro and the valise were gone. Neither
has been seen since. Whenever a fellow
| educator writes to the colonel now he works
In some allusion TO this episode 1t is pretty
| safe to say that no strange negro will be in
struoted again to keep an eye on any of the
| colonels property unless there is some one
around to keep an eye on the negro as well.

Importance think the passage OF this bill
furnishes it. Deeper water is all that 10
needed now. Real estate is in good
condition and there is a good de-
mand for residences, with very few

steadily IN the southern section OF tho city,
and all real estate is in good demand With
the addition Of deep water Savannah real
estate will be the best investment to be
found. l do not see how people can CON
tinue to invest in stocks and bonds with the
repeated losses they have sustained in the
last few years. Real estate in that time
has doubled In value. while almost all the
holders of stocks and bonds have lost money.
