Last Excursion to Atlantic City.

The last opportunity to enjoy one
of the cheap-rate excursions to AT
Iantic City, which have been run dur
ing the summer by the Baltimore
and Ohio r. R., will be offered on
Thursday, August 2jth. The same
low rates will be provided as hereto
fore from Pittsburg, Wheeling, Par
kersburg, and all intermediate sta
tions to Washington Junction, Md,
and as it will he the last excursion OF
the season no doubt it will be largely
patronized by those who have not yet
visited the seashore during the heated
term. The train service provided for
these excursions is unexcelled, and
the country through which the ex-
press trains pass stands withouta rival
in the picturesqueness and variety OF
its scenery.
Tickets will be valid for return jour
ney for twelve days from day of sale,
also to stop off at Philadelphia for the
night OF August G5th, and will be good
on all regular trains. On return jour
ney they will be good to stop off at
Washington, thus affording an oppor-
tunity to visit the numerous public
buildings, which are open to visitors
free of charge, and to take q trip
down the Potomac to Mt. Vernon,
the tomb Of Washington, as well as 10
visit other places of interest In and
near Washington.

Work Of a Thunderbolt.

One of the most interesting strokes
of lightning occurred at Bourges,
France. on May last, of which Il
French scientific journal has now
given accurate particulars. On that
dav eighteen men of the thirty seventh
regiment of artillery were marching in
the polygon outside of Bourges under
the conduct of Chief Artiticer Beau
vais. A heavy shower made them run
for shelter, but in doing so flash OF
lightning literally moved them down,
with the exception of Beauvals, who
marched behind. The three first
ranks quickly regained their feet,
but four men remained insensible
and were carried to the hospital, where
one, named Bouveau, who had walked
a little apart, died. The clothes Of
the victim were, as usual, torn and his
boots burst open.
Bouveau was struck on the head,
and his cap and hair were burned.
The discharge passed by the right
ear to the shoulder and left haunch,
then down the inner surface of the
left leg. The iron nails of the boot
made good contact with the
ground; but the leather of the sole
appears to have offered great resls-
lance, for the discharge left the boot
at a point between the heel and the
upper.

Of days ago Mr.. Hannah was surprised
to observe directly in the center of
the cake large water snake, artist
cally coiled and apparently frozen
solid. The cake of ice was split open
and the snake removed, n work
which required careful management,
as the reptile was frozen fast to the
ice. After inspecting the snake TO
their satisfaction, it was thrown out
on pile Of sawdqst in the sun, and
in less than an hour it began to show
signs of life, finally unooiling itself
and crawling away. The cake of ice
in which the snake was discovered
was cut last January, hence the rep
tile was frozen solid for period Of
about seven months-NeadriHs pa

A Victim of Cider Drinking.

Nicholas O'Brien, who lived with
his wife and two children in q dilap-
idated farmhouse two miles from
Litchfield, Conn, went home drunk
late Tuesday night. He grabbed his
wife by the hair, kicked and beat her
and drove her outdoors. There he
kicked and pounded her again,
choked her till she was nearly in
sensible and pushed her into the
weeds by the roadside.
Two hours later Mrs. O'Brien was
found covered with mud and blood
and in a dying condition. She died
soon after and her husband has been
arrested for murder.
Six years ago when O'Brien mar
ried his wife, he was industrious and
sober. He formed a taste for hard
cider, and Notwithstanding his wife's
warnings became a hard drinker.
His crime is the sixth murder caused
by cider drinking in Litchfeld county
during the last ten years.

great cost in life and money that the
hot spell of last week entailed.
Coroner Levy estimates that the num-
Der of deaths directly traceabl1 to
the heat will reach over 3 OJ) a
mortality which had it occurred
during an epidemic would have made
New York panic-stricken. The money
cost has been great. The horse rail
way companies aggregated nearly
$4,000 loss. The general ticket agent
of a great line tells me that travel fell
off fifty per cent, representing a loss
of many thousands of dollars, and
the expenses entailed by sickness were
in the gross very great. Besides that
there was for three or four days
almost no retail shopping done.

flooded with an alleged supplement-
called Reciprocity and Protection,
which is peing given circulation fold
ed in Republican local papers as
supplement. Reciprocity and Pro,
lection claims to be a regularly issued

matter in New York city at the post
Office of that city. 1t also claims TO
have regular subscription price OF l
cent per number The alleged news
paper contains few advertisements,
but is made up of Republican polisl-
cal matter. Atleast one OF the paper
circulating in West Virginia which
has been sending out this campaign
literature for administration ls owned,
edited and published by postmaster
in an adjoining town In ONO. NO
postmaster has had the courage, non
esty and integrity to put stop TO
the circulation OF this campaign stun
at the regular newspaper rates,
but when a democratic newspaper
was offered at the postoffice in this
place containing a Democratic sup
element, which contains no advertise
ments, it was refused admission to
the United States mails at pound
rates, by the postmaster here. When
the reciprocity and protection paper
was shown him he admittedit was I'M
lawful to send it through the mails at
regular Newspaper rates, but he VIII
not look up the paper which sends
it out, although he knows well enough
and has been informed that it is be-
ing done daily, and doubtless knows
that one of the editors is a postmas-
ter himself, for fear of the displeas-
ure of Wanamaker and Harrison.
According to this postmaster, who 1t
is to be presumed is authority, the
postoflices of West Virginia and the
machinery of the government is be-
ing daily prostituted, and the laws
daily violated in the interests OF Har-
rison. BY his action this postmaster
virtually SAYS that there is one kind
of postal law for Democrats and
another sort for Republicans"

Vitriol Served for Wine.

A serious mistake occurred at the
Presbyterian church in Armenia,
Duchess county, n. Y, Sunday morn
ing. The pastor, Rev. Mr.. Bell, mis-
took a bottle OF vitriol for the com
munion wine and passed it through
the church. About twenty persons
slipped the poison. One Ezra Wilson
discovered the true nature Of the
liquid and gave the alarm. The an
nouncement created great excitement,
amounting almost to a panic in the
church. All who had tasted the vitriol
became violently i'll. Physicians
were quickly summoned and the
church soon resembled a hospital
ward. The poisoned people suffered
intensely all day, but next morning all
were reported to be out OF danger.
