AN OssIFIED WOMAN,
She Experiences No Pain and Is Able to
Walk About the House,

She Experiences No Pain and Is Able to
Walk About the House.
A remarkable case of ossifcation of the
bones has been brought to public notice as
the result of the last meeting of the Medico-
Chirurgical Society, at DR.. Turner Ander-
sons house, in Louisville, KY.
Miss Emma Schambach, aged II, the
daughter of John +. Shambach, a black
smith, living at 914 East Market street, is
the victim of a mysterious malady, which
since it has been known to physicians has
caused great interest. She has been attended
by Dr. App Morgan Vance, and skillful as
he and the other physicians and surgeons are,
nothing can be done to relieve her. The
aff1iction is the disease known as ''mvosotis
ossificans. 1t consists of hardening of
the muscles like bone. Miss Schambach is
affected in the neck, arms, sides and lower
limbs On the right side of her neck a
bony formation under the skin makes the
movement of that part Of her body difficult.
Her right arm is immovable at the elbow
with the forearm at right angles with the
upper portion. The left arm is barely moy-
able at the elbow. The muscles of her back
are also affected, and she cannot bend.
Miss Schambach is not confined to her
room by her afflictlon. but can go about the
house and streets, She, however, remains
secluded at home and is able to do light
housework and attend to her wants. She
seldom experiences any pains, and those
only slightly when there is change in the
weather. Otherwise she is in good health.
She is about five feet five inches in height,
and her complexion is light. She is very
modest, and bears her aff1iction patiently.
There are several other children in the
family, but all of them are in good health.
The young lady's parents are both robust.

MRS. LANGTRY's BLACK GOWN.
She Knew the Time When She Only Had
One, but That Was Sufficient.

She Knew the Time When She Only fiad
One, but That Was Sufficient.
Philadelphia Times.l
The experience of professional beauty.
Mrs. Langtry, in regard to black gowns is
worth recording. The first season that the
Jersey Lily spent in London found her the
possessor of one evening gown, and that a
very simple black. Immediately after her
picture appeared she became the rage, and
duchesses themselves did not hesitate to
stand on chairs to get glimpse of her as she
passed. Everywhere she wore the black
gown. One night it was turned in so that
her beautiful throat showed; another night
it was drawn up close to her neck and a
bunch of white lilies against it brought out
its blackness and her fairness 1t was
mended, it was pressed, but at reception or
ball all that season the beautiful woman
wore the black gown. Later on. when even
ing dresses we're very ordianry things to
her, she said most positively: "Never tell
me that woman can't dress well who has
single frock. know that she can not only
look we'll, but always be distinguished:
and know it through the best teacher of
all-experience.
And so it is that the black evening gown
is commended, not only to the woman who
has great deal of money, but to her who
though she may be bent on pleasure, vet
has frugal mind.

Two Gas Explosions and a Storm, With a
Combined Loss of Five Lives.
WILKEsBARRE. July l3.-Shortly after 2
o'clock this afternoon an explosion of gas
occurred in No. colliery of the Youngstown
Coal Company at Edwardsville. After the
accident, Nathan l.. Ameraux, of Dorrance-
ton, WIS found among the debris, burned to
death, and Thomas z. Davis SO badly in
jured that he cannot recover. Ameraux's 8
arms and legs were charred to a crisp.
A fearful explosion of gas took place Mt
No. breaker in Ashley, operated by the L.
high and Wilkesbarre Coal Company. Be-
fore the men at work near the accident
could get away, John Latimore and his
laborer, Michael Green, were fatally burned.
Two other men, unknown, were slightly
burned on the hands and face.
The town OF Freeland, in the lower part of
Luzerne county, was visited this evening
by a terrible lightning and thunder storm.
Rain fell in torrents for nearly an hour,
causing much damage to buildin-s and cell
lars The lightning was never known to be
SO severe in that section. 1t struck several
houses. The Methodist Episcopal church in
South Heberton, mining village nearby,
was badly damaged by lightning which also
struck the residence of George Malinky, in
stantly killing his wife, who was in the act
of closing the shutters.

SENATORS ON THE SUBJECT.
They Claim the Two Candidates Killed the
Stewart Silver BILL

They Claim the Two Candidates Killed the
Stewart Silver BILL
WASHINGTON, July 13-In the Senate
the expressions concerning the defeat of the
silver coinage bill were varied, the free
silver Republicans feeling evidently much
chagrined, though they hardly expected the
bill would pass, owing to the great pressure
brought to bear against it, as they claim, by
the friends of President Harrison and of
ex-President Cleveland, both Of whom, they
think, urged the defeat of the measure. The
Democratic Senators were not surprised at
the vote against the bill, as few of them
were so sanguine as to expect its ultimate
passage at this session, and all seemed to
realize the utter hopelessness of attempting
to bring the bill up again for consideration
this session,
The Republican silver Senators maintain
that the action of the House to-day does not
by any means mean the death of the bill
finally, Senator Stewart being particularly
sanguine that the measure will again be
brought to the front at the next session of
Congress, and even going so far as to say
two months longer the bill would pass both
Houses owing to the revolt of feeling. 1t is
quite certain, however, that the bill will
not, in any form, come up in the Senate
again this session, as everybody is convinced
that it is now too late in the session to at
tempt any further silver legislation. Sena-
tor Stewart, who led the fight of the silver
Republicans in the Senate, showed that he
felt no surprise at the vote by admitting
that he expected majority of 20 against
the bill.

CANNED GOODS CHEAP.

John Jarrett Saws They Haven't Gone Up
Because of the Tariff on Tin-The Tin
Plate Industry One That Takes Years to
Successfully Build Up.
tFRoM STAFF CORRESPONDENCE
WASHINGTON, July 13-Messrs. John
Jarrett, William c. Cronemyer and Will
liam Bonfeld, representing the American
Tin Plate Manufactrssrs' Association, are
in the city. They came for the purpose of
setting Alright the Senate Finance Com
mittee on the question of the Shively tin
plate bill recently passed by the House.
This bill provides that on and after October
Of this year tin plate shall be admitted
to the ports of this country at duty of l u
cents pound, and after October l, '94, be
! admitted free of duty.
Mr.. Jarrett thinks it impossible that the
Senate Finance Committee can consider
this bill before the adjournment of Congress
at least, that il cannot be reported to the
Senate and passed by that body before that
time.
"We want to give the Senate Finance
Committee full opportunity to understand
the situation" said Mr.. Jarrett this evening.
"Many of the statements made by the men,
bers of the Democratic party in the House
are too absurd to go unnoticed. For in
stance, Mr.. Bunting, of New York, said we
had claimed that local TIN plate factories
could supply the consumption of the United
States within nine months after the passage
of the Mckinley bill. We never claimed
anything of the kind. 1t takes years to es-
tablish an enormous industry of this char
acter.
THE tin plate industry, however, is in
the most fourishing condition, when you
consider that its existence is being contin-
ually threatened by the Democratic party.
The members of this party talked about the
evil results of the bill, and said the price of
canned goods would go higher if the tin
item in the Mckinley bill were passed.
The result has not verified the prediction
Perhaps the Gamer has had to come down
in his profit, perhaps the retailer has had
to come down in his profit, but the con-
sumner is not paying cent more than he
did before the Mckinley bill went into
effect MEL.
