of the Heart After Brief Illness.
FREMONT, Ohio, January 17.-Ruth-

morning in the 72nd year of his age.
He was attacked with neuralgia of the
heart while on visit to his son few
days ago. The attack was from the first
recognized as serious, and the sick man
was brought by gentle stages to his
home.
On reaching here he rallied slightly,
but last evening began to fail, and at
midnight it was seen that the end was
near.
In the early morning, however, he
breathed his last, another attack of the
terrible disease, known to physicians as
angina pectoris, and In common parlance
as death-pang, proving fatal.

RooKLAND, January i7.-The Knox
Lime Insurance Company has elected
the following officers

ecretary-Edward A. Butler.
Trustees-W VIM. 7. Cobb. A. G. Gay. Gardner
herd. q. E. Carleton, Rockport; ]. A. Creighton,
Atwood Levensalor, Thomaston.
1t is estimated that over 2 100000 casks
of lime were manufactured in this coun
ty last year. Unfortunately prices
ruled low. and the profit was correspond
ingly small In this city a great many
of the kilns have shut down and in
Thomaston all are out.
tits stated on good authority that the
Rockland, Thomas on and Camden street
railway will extend its system to Thorn
aston, the work to be actively underway
by June. 1t is thought that eventually
the tracks will be run to the towns of
st. George in one direction and Warren
in the other. The directors last week
voted to extend the local system at once.
The track will be laid up Park street
over the county road and down by the
way of Blackington's s Corner. The ex-
cellent success with which the company
has thus early met certainty warrants
the above additions.
The steamer Vin;.lhaven, before re-
ported in the PRESS as burned to the

dition. 1t is estimated that the total
damage will not exceed $4,000. The

The new disease of the stomach and bowels
so prevalent throughout New England has been
named by the medical profession, Winter
Cholera. Its appearance while the Asiatic
Cholera is raging abroad, is regarded as sig
nificant, presaging, as it does; an outbreak OF
the European scourgc with the advent OF early
summer. winter ChoIera undermines the
constitutions of Grippe victims, plays havoc
with those who escaped that dread disease, and
paves the way for typhoid and other wasting
feyers Restrictive immigration bills and quar-
.ntine will avail nothing. Cholera germs are
being cultivated in thousands OF Winter
Cholera victims throughout New England to-
day. The balmy days of spring and the hot
days of early summer will rouse the disease
germs to activity. In Winter Cholera con:
servative physicians see the Haunting OF the
danger signal. The warning has been SOUNDED.
The alarm has been sent forth. Cholera, IN IN

Ice Embargo at Baltimore.

BALTIMORE, Md, January 17.-Balti-
more is under blockade by ice. Only the
largest tug boats work their way through
and then only under a full head of ste m.
Tug boat men positively refuse to move
steamers from their piers and by this
reason the Fullwell, grain laden and
ready for sea since Saturday,is still here.
Several steamers, ready for the eleva-
tors. cannot be moved, and work on
them is at a standstill. Latest adv1ces
from below are that the ice is heavy from
Windmill Point to above Smiths Point,
thence to Poplar Island in large fields,
from where it is heavy to Baltimore.
An effort was made yesterday to get
the steamer British King out of the
channel on her way to London. The ice
boat Latrobe went ahead and broke
the ice, followed by the British King, in
the wake of which was the fruit steamer
Managua, bound for Jamaica. At p.
IN. the Two outward bound steamers
were seen to bring up in the ice off
North Point. The Latrobe then steamed
toward the city as if she had given up
the job.
A dispatch from Bay Ridge reported
the ice boat Annapolis making passage
| through the ice off there for the Dutch
tank steamer La Hesbaye, upward bound
from Antwerp. The tug Hercules has
gone down the bay to try to bring the
| steamer Brixam to port. The steamer
| Alsenborn of Shriver's New York line,
had to take the outside route from Cape
| Henry.
Captain Faul, of the tug Rescue, tele-
phoned his owner that the tug and tow
of barges are frozen up in Annapolis.
