':Nothing 10 surer Of yielding . sure in

NARROWLY ESCAPED DEATH.
Several Injured by Fire in a Brooklyn
 Apartment House.


 Apartment House. NEW YORK, Aug. 23.-Three persons were burned and bruised and narrowly escaped death in an incendiary fire which broke out shortly before a. m. in the fashionable apartment house at 301 Henry street, Brooklyn.
 Nine other persons escaped from the burning building in their night clothes. The injured, who were all taken to the Long Island College hospital, are: CHARLES E. FULLER, 42 years old, broker, jumped from the second floor, in jured internally.
 ELIZABETH D. HOLT, aged 23 ROSA BELLE HOLT, aged 26. These two sisters slid down rope from the fourth story and severely lacerated their hands and limbs besides being bruised about the head.
 Three attempts to destroy the house have been made within a week and another attempt was made few months ago.
 All of the fires prior to the latest were discovered soon after they were started and extinguished with slight loss. The last, however, had gained such headway before being found out, that it caused a damage of $15, 900 before being extin- guished.
 The police are endeavoring to solve the mystery,
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1892-08-23

Dan Stewart had been domiciled in the little house across the ravine for more than a week and with his usual adaptability had niched himself into his new environment. The few people who had met him were so charmed with him that more desired to share the privilege, and already the ripple of his popularity was circling around the neighborhood.
 Mrs. Beverley's little boys were the first to make his acquaintance, being on terms of familiar intimacy already in the house of his entertainer, and they came home to their mother after 8 lengthy call perfectly enraptured.
 He's the incest gentleman that ever was, mamma" quoth Hector, with en- thusiasm. He lived, when he was a little boy, far away in country where the snow lays on the ground all the time and the people go about on snow- shoes-such funny things, like great long paddles-and they have sleighs with bells on the horses collars, and all the children have sleds and slide down hill and run races and have lots of fun, and they skate, mamma, like in the pie ture books, on rivers twice as big as this and walk about on the paddle shoes. LookI I've got picture of them MT. Stewart drew me-" And he produced a rough sketch and exhibited it with rapture. "Oh, mamma, it must be lovely to live where it's awful coldl Wouldn't you like to gop"
 "Go wherer" asked Mary, smiling. ..
 Then Ran, the accurate, took up the tale. "It's New Brunswick" i" he said. "I said it over to myself lots of times and 1 remember it quite right, because of the stew with loads of pepper in 1t that Aunt Neelie likes. And Hec, MT. Stew art didn't say twas winter there all the time. Don't you know he told us about the flowers in the woods and going after berries with his sisters2 That couldn't be if there was snow all the time"

HOMESTEAD ALMOST DESERTED.

Strikers Securing Work Elsewhere-Sol-
 diers Expect to Go Home Sept. 1.
 HOMESTEAD, Pa., Aug. 23.-Home- stead is daily becoming more deserted, many of the strikers securing work else where pending a settlement of the strike. As result the relief committee find their work much easier.
 The soldiers here are looking forward to the 1st of September, when they ex- pect to be relieved. By that time they will have been in continuous service longer than at any time during the history of the Guard, having been in the field sixty days.
 The 14th Regiment, which held the record at Johnstown, was on duty only 32 days. The soldiers generally are of the opinion from their constant associa- tion with the strike that it would not be wise to remove the guard entirely for a month at any rate.

ARRESTS AT COAL CREEK.
The Attempted Lynching of Lindsay Stiu
 the Ranaation.

the Sensation. KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Aug. 23.-Twenty- three men, supposed to be in sympathy with the worst of the miners, were arrested near Coal Creek yesterday after noon and locked up. Several of them are suspected of holding up the mail train between Clinton and Coal Creek last Thursday night. One of the suspects is Jim Hatmaker, son of John Hatmaker, who led the attack on the stockade at Oliver Springs last Tuesday.
 Every possible attempt is being male to apprehend the elder Hatmaker He was of the greatest prominence in all the mining troubles and is supposed to have escaped to Kentucky.
 The threatened lynching of Bud Lind say is the great topic of discussion. He IS under a strong guard. Gen. Carnes and his officers are indignant over some sensational reports sent by special cores pondents. Some of them may be harshly dealt with if apprehended.
 Lindsay had a very narrow escape. He has made himself so obnoxious to the more conservative miners and to citi- zens not in favor of the rioting that he has been marked figure, and only his Keeping within safe distance of the mili- tary since his capture, and generally be- tween four walls, has prevented his being killed.
 For several nights he was confined in an old mine and the mouth guarded by large squad of soldiers. Affairs during the day had been so quiet and the sub mission of the miners so general that the watch was somewhat relaxed, and Lind say had lost some of his fear and wan dered more widely within the enclosure. In some way, no one seems to know how, four citizens managed to seize and silence him and in the dusk slipped him between the pickets.
 He was hurried up the valley towards Briceville, and the mob, which gained force almost at every step, hurried him forward, fearing alarm and pursuit by the soldiers
 The journey was not ended until Brice- vile, the scene of the labor troubles last year and the home of the more conserva- tive class of miners, was reached. Once there a rope was secured and placed around his neck. His true character was soon seen. Though considered des- perate man, and although he has at least dozen murders to his account, he broke down and begged for his life with all possible fervor.
 His pleadings and lamentations were effective. He was promised life upon his solemn promise that he will turn States evidence and reveal the names and plans of all the leaders, tell how the mob was raised, the nature of the oath, the names of the miners known to have killed soldiers or guards, in short, to re- veal to the civil authorities all of the lawlessness that has reigned. When all this was promised the rope was taken from his neck, and he was returned to the camp for safe keeping. It is believed that with his testimony twenty or thirty leaders can be success fully tried for murder.

The Divorce Set Aside.

NYAcK, N. Y., Aug. 23.-The Vice Chancellor of New Jersey has just set aside the divorce granted to Thomas Main, formerly a well-known citizen of Grand View, Rockland county, N. Y. When the suit for divorce was brought against Mrs. Main she was in Colorado and knew nothing of it until the divorce had been granted. She at once came East, applied to the Vice Chancellor of New Jersey to have the matter recon sidered, and the decision setting aside the divorce has been given.
