PREPARATIONS FOR CAMP.

Meetings Held ut the Armory Last
Eventng-The Officers to Eat the
Same Food as tho Men.
These are lively days at the armory.
Preparations for going to camp, which
opens on the 21st of August, are in rapid
progress. Meetings of some of the COM
panies are held each evening, and matters
of rations, tents, baggage and equipment
form the principal topic of conversation.
A meeting of the officers association was
held in the officers headquarters last even
ing. 1t was voted to accept nothing but
the regular bill of fare furnished by the
state. This will make the food for the
men and the officers the same and will OBJ
viate the ill-feeling which has existed at
times in the past. There will be an Off
GERS mess for the Second regiment. In
some of the other regiments the officers eat
with the men, and they are at liberty, of
course, to do 80 in the Second regiment.
Frank Fichtl, the leader of the Second reg
iment band, was given the power to enlist
five musicians to fill up the full quota of
twenty-five men, which Is the number al
lowed to the band.
The City Guard held q meeting last even
ing at the armory. Privates Barnmann
and Harry E. Mink were appointed cor
porals. John g. Rice of rs Greene street
was elected to membership. The bill of
fare furnished by the state was accepted
without extras. The position of the City
Guard at camp this year will be left of the
first battalion.
THE GRAYs
Held their regular monthly meeting last
evening. The principal business WAS the
drawing for the tents. A new plan for
drawing the tents was adopted this wear.
A squad of four men occupies each tent.
One of the men would draw one of the
numbers of the tents, fourteen in number.

full toward the shore. 1t seems that
Admiral Tryon did not realize the
extent of the damage to the Victoria,
for when the Camperdown and the
other ships signaled offers of boats
-he replied that he didn't need them.
The Victoria began to forge straight
for the shore under full steam. 1t Is
one of the rules of the British navy
that if ship is in danger of sinking
and shore is not far away she must be
got into shallow water so that if she
goes down she may be raised again.
So Admiral Tryon was making for
the shore and was widening the dis
lance between the Victoria and other
ships.
About ten minutes after the blow
the Victoria, having got something
like two miles nearer shore from the
scene of the collision, all at once

most to the surface. Then there was
a mutfled sound Of thunder, the
waters tossed up and the steam burst
from them. Again the shrieks ano
screams burst from the swimmers.
The boilers had exploded, the sea
had rushed into the furnaces, and the
swimmers were beating waves OF
scalding water. Thus, in less thar
ten minutes, death in three awful.
forms attacked the officers and crew
Of the Victoria-death by drowning,
death by the knife-like screws ano
death by scalding water
With the first under plunge of the
Victoria all the boats were called
away from all the other ships and
came straining over the calm sea to
save the stragglers. These boats
were soon picking up those fortunate
ones who had got out of reach Of the
terrible vortex So long as the vor-
tex was there the boats dared not
venture near, but they did lift from
the scalding water several wretched
sailors who were horribly burned. It
is thought that more than half OF
those drowned got out of the ship,
but were caught in the vortex or
scalded to death by the boiling water.
Admiral Tryon stuck on the bridge
and refused to leave it. Justsbefore
the Victoria made her underplunge
he saw what was about to happen
and issued an order for each man to
save himself, but the order never got
beyond the bridge, for ruin descended
straightway. The Vice Admiral had
made an awful blunder, and his life,
with the lives of nearly four hundred
of his fellows, was the price.

A Meteor of Diamonds.

Definite knowledge of the interior
composition of a meteor has just been
gained by professors at Yale College.
Last year an immense meteor fell in
Canyon Diablo, Arizona. 1t was
purchased from the discoverer for
S1,25O, by friends of Prof. Elias
LOOMS, now dead, who was Yale's
chief astronomer The meteor was
sent to Yale College for the Peabody
Museum, with the request that it be
inscribed to the memory OF Prof.
LOOMS.
The mass was rough and uneven,
and looked like huge cinder Last
week it was sent to a New Haven
factory to have one end planed off to
give a space for the inscription.
From it's general appearance the men
supposed it weighed about 200
pounds, while, in fact, its weight
was S35 pounds. The two men who
came for it nearly strained their
backs before they acknowledged they
needed help
The Workmen were surprised when
they saw the teeth of the powerful
planer melting swiftly away. Setafter
set of teeth were put at work, but it
was not until twelve Of them had been
used and spoiled that the desired
smooth surface was made. An ex-
animation of the scraps dropped from
the planer revealed the fact that the
meteor was composed of millions Of
minute black and white diamonds,
too small to be of any use, but with
weight enough in the aggregate,
could they be combined, to furnish
an immense fortune. There are
other valuable materials in the
meteor--nickel, iron, graphite and
triolite.
Prof. Newman, who has charge Of
the department in which the meteor
has been placed, thinks it very doubt
full whether the mass can be inscribed
even now, after all the trouble in
planning surface. The mass is so
hard he believes no chisel can be
found equal to the task of cutting
the letters, and he may have met
allie plate appended to some portion
of the uneven surface. with the in
scription placed on the plate. New

Heroic Work by a Young Girl.

Helen Patched, the 14-year-old
daughter of Charles w. Patched, a
well-known citizen of Darby, proved
herself heroine recently. Alighting
from the noon train at Boone Station,
on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad,
Miss Patched paused to allow Royal
Blue express train to pass on the op-
posite track. She held by the hand
the 5-year-old son of Edward Kirk
patrick, Mr.. Patchells partner
AS the train Numbered through
the tunnel and swept under a bridge
less than a hundred yards away she
saw her own baby brother and sister
run down to meet her and step on the
track in the face of the approaching
train.
An instant's delay meant death to-
both. If she attempted to rescue
them she herself and the little boy
might be ground under the engine.
The engine whistle shrieked and the
heavy train rushed ON. The greau
wheels, pulling the fastest train oa

miles an hour.

doors, alarmed by the whistle, and
stood horror-stricken, Miss Helen
never hesitated, but, dragging the
little boy across the tracks, she
pushed her brother and sister from
the rails upon the platform and
scrambled up herself with the boy.
The engine dashed by, sweeping aside
the dress Of the brave girl, and the
suction of the train drew her almost
under the wheels.
So close was the escape of the little
party that the mother Of the girl, who
was witness of the episode, and the
servants on the lawn turned away
their heads, thinking that all would
be ground to pieces by the engine =

out Of sight. All within reach of that
vortex lost their presence of mind.
Men who knew how to swim ceased
swimming and fought with the
waters. Men clutched each other in
frenzy and struck each other off. The
deep cone of whirling water with the
swift knives chopping human bodies
was horror to daunt the bravest.
One man who was saved says that he
saw in this great vortex at least fifty
of his fellows fighting with each other
and with inevitable death. In mo-

and the vortex kegan to close up.

A Horse with a False Ear.

zone of the most stylish driving
horses in this city has no ears" re-
marked Eugene Carter, of Omaha,
says the St. Louis Republic. Il will
not disclose the name of the owner,
but the horse is driven on the boule-
ward every fine day for exercise. He
can easily trot in 1882 without skip,
and his disposition makes him one Of
the most valuable family horses in
St. Louis. My brother raised the
horse. When a colt the animal had
his ears frozen so badly that when
the healing process set in they
sloughed off within an inch of the
head.
"The colt was the most promising
one ia my brother Dams stables, but
the loss of his ears made him unsala-
bic. Dan broke him three years ago,
and he showed speed from the first
trial. In less than six months he
trotted In ESQ, but the absence of
his ears placed hoodoo upon his
real value. Dan conceived the idea
of pair of artificial ears, and a skill
full veterinary surgeon had them
made and fitted them accurately to
the stumps. They more than full
filled expectations, for fastened Sc
curely to his head by an elastic band,
they defied the closest inspection,
and had, when attached to the
stumps, every motion made by nat
