Death with Smoked Beef
LONG ISLAND CITY, NY, May 9.-Ono
Of the most remarkable suicides ever
committed was that of Joseph Silberg,
bankrupt Hampstead merchant, in
Queens county Jail. Although but 80
years old and having wife and four
children, the throwing of him in Jail on
Judgment determined the despairing
Hebrew to end his life. In spite Of the
vigilance of the turnkey and his dep
uties, Silberg invented new and sur
prising mode Of exit from this world Of
debt which he triumphantly applied
Instead of eating the smoked beef
brought to his cell, he carried it into the
bathroom, where, having the priv
ilege of the corridor, he went
about 1850 o'clock. Strapping
his feet together at the ankles.
and also tying his wrists with hand
kerchief, he sat bolt upright on the
floor. While in this position he man
aged to stuff his mouth full OF the
smoked beef. In this way he choked
himself to death. The jailor was
startled at beholding the dead debtor
stretched out on the floor, and was
puzzled at first TO konw how he had
shuffled off his mortal coil. But all be-
came clear when Coroner Meiners had
to use penknife to remove the meat

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, May 9.-The past
twenty-four hours have furnished the
climax for all the rainy weather OF this
spring. A heavy downpour of water
has been falling all day Sunday and
since midnight Saturday night, so that
the already soaked ground has been
giving off the water into the swollen
creeks and streams. The result is
that accounts have been coming in
from all over western Missouri
and eastern Kansas telling OF
flooded rivers, overfiowed creeks and
streams. In some localities the towns
have been flooded, and some damage is
reported to dwellings by having their
foundations washed out. The floods
came so suddenly in other districts that
the farmers had no time to prepare for
it, and much of their stock has been
drowned and washed away. Growing
crops have been badly damaged, and
thousands of fields will lave to be re-
planted.
In Saline County, Mo-, all the streams
are reported out of their banks, and the
whole county has been turned into
lake. Some houses have been washed
away, and much stock has been lost.
Along the Platte river and the One
Hundred and Two river the whole
country has been inundated, and
houses and barns have been destroyed.
In Livingston, Grundy and Mercer
counties the Grand river and its forks
have flooded the whole country and the
district from Chillicothe to the Iowa
line is one sea of water. All the crops
have been washed out for miles through
out the Grand river valley, and much
stock has been lost. All the railroads
in the district have been more or less
damaged, and traffic is greatly delayed,
and, in some cases, has been abandoned
altogether The Wabash bridge here
has been strained ont of line, so that no
trains can pass over.
In Oklahoma territory, steady,
pouring rain has been falling for twen-
ty-four hours, and half the streams in
the territory are cut OF their banks.
Many bridges have been washed away.
Nearly all the overland mails have
been abandoned. The Santa Fe has
suffered several washouts, and trains
are badly delayed. A small tornado
accompanied the rain north of Guthrie
and did considerable damage. The
houses of John Davis, Henry Smith and
John Crockett were carried some dis
tance by the wind and badly damaged
Many barns and other buildings were
destroyed There was no loss Of life SO
far as known.
All the trains from every direction,
with the exception of the Rock Island
and Union Pacific from the west, are
late in arriving in this city. All are de-
layed by unsafe bridges, landslides or
washouts. The rain continued to-
night with unabated steadiness- The
Missouri river, which is very high fer
this season of the year, is rising rap
idly, and there Is much apprehension
lest the steady pour Of water into it
from it's tributaries will cause it to go
on the rampage and increase the al
ready heavy damages by floods

HOW TT FELT.
An Old Engineer Tells of His Daring Ride
On m Enginc~--A Trip In Front of the
Fastest Locomotive In the World.

On an En9inc~--A Trip In Front O4 tho
Fastest Locomotive In the World.
NEW YORK, May Angus Sinclair,
editor of Locomotive Engineering, has
described his unique and daring ride in
little iron box three feet high, in
front Of the cylinder of the engine
which hauled the Empire State express
of the New York Central road from New
York TO Albany last Tuesday. Mr.. Sim
clair was seen by reporter On his re-
turn to the city.
"How do feel after my ridcp" said
he. "Well, feel pretty lame Two
hours and three-quarters on ones knees
is what might be called true devotion to
the cause, and it's firing. No; wasn't
nervous during the ride, but probably
should have been If I hadn't been used
to running on every part of locomo-
tive for years, though not at such rate.
Seventy-eight miles an hour is, I be-
lieve, the fastest recorded time made ON
level by locomotive drawing train,
and we run four miles at that rate.
How did l know this? Because
counted the revolutions OF the driv-
ing wheels. At the fastest the drivers
made $40 revolutions o minute. The
counting was dore by ear and by feel
ing. To any but trained ear, tho
sound from the smolzestack of Loco
motive travelling faster than sixty miles
an hour is like continuous blast, but
an old engineer can detect distinct pull
sationS II Is an acquired faculty, and
comes only with long experience There
are four puffs to every revolution of the
drivers. and one of these is trihe loud
er than the others This serves to di-
vide them into fours. A trained cngin-
by grouping them into twenties,
crs, arrives at o conclusion regard
ing the number of revolutions minute.
Then, the circumference of the drivers
being known, it is simple matter to
reckon the rate Of speed. Besides this,
there is q sort of shock throughout the
locomotive on the down stroke of the
driving rod. which aids in the counting.
This counting has become, through
practice, mechanical net with me, and
on my ride Thursday l was counting,
looking after the machinery Of gauge,
siu Iic NiOi' pdPSi, oh
which the diagrams were to be marked
at the same time So, you see. had no
time to think of being nervous-"
Were there no unpleasant or pocu-
liar sensations connected with such
rapid novemcnt?-
"Well, the trees and telegraph poles
got to going by pretty fast I wou'G
sight an object some distance Up IT,:

Mr.. Sinclair is confident thnt, with
one car, the engine could run hundred
miles an hour. The locomotive $40 is

nous run to Buffalo on September IA,
