ANOTHER CYCLONE SOUTH.



SAVANNAH, Oct. 13.-Sayanah is in the
teeth of a storm which threatens to equal
in intensity that of Aug. q, which swept
the entire Georgia and South Carolina
coast. All vessels in the harbor have
sought shelter and safe anchorages. The
Boston steamship Gate City, which was to
have sailed last night, will remain until
the storm has passed. In the city little
damage has yet been done.
JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Oct. 13 The storm
reached its height here at 215 yesterday
afternoon, the velocity of the wind being
forty-eight miles an hour. This indicates
that the storm here will prove less severe
than expected.
CHARLESTON, Oct. 13.--The wind is blow

CHICAGO, Oct. 13-Frenzied with fright
and driven into stampede by a raging
fire that broke out last evening in the
Wallace street barns of the Chicago City
Railway company, 800 horses were either
BufTocated or burned to death. The barns
were entirely destroyed. They were lo-
Gated at Wallace and Thirty-ninth streets,
and were among the most extensive under
control of the company. They occupied
the large brick building two stories in
height, and extending 100 feet on Wallace
and 80 feet on Thirty-ninth.
The fire broke out about 9 o'clock, and
soon the big low building was surrounded
with flames. They burst from the win
dows on either side, and entrance through
the doorways was cut off.
Inside the horses were helpless. They
were blinded by the glare of the flames
and the smoke that rolled through the
place in great volumes, and soon a STAN
pede was in progress The animals surged
back and forth in groups of ffties and hun
dreds in their mad rush to escape. Their
loud neighing and an occasional cry Of
pain told the people on the street of the
fearful scenes that were being enacted on
the inside
Gradually the sounds Of the stampede
grew fainter and fainter, and when the
first group of firemen had fought their
way into the barn they saw charred car
casses lying about on every hand.
The loss on building is S25, 600; on the
horses, $4,000, and on the contents of the
barn, cars, feed, etc, $4,000.

Sea Monsters of Old.

The krakeu was one OF the sea mon
sters of old. and if all the stories told
about its wondrous size and doings are
true it oversnadowed the serpent as much
as the latter does the common garter
snake. Dandelaus declares tina. this
marine giant caused tidal waves by swal-
lowing a goodly part of the waters of
the ocean and then belching them out
again. He also makes mention of the
fact that its gigantic horny beak was
often mistaken for mountain peaks sud-
denly showed into sight by the internal
commissions of the earth. Bishop Pom
toppidan, a truthful (?) and sanity mem

What q Maverick Is,

Some years ago a man named Maverick
located near Austin. Tex, and went into
the stock business. He had considerable
money and established a large ranch,
mostly of cattle. He was what might be
termed a progressive man, but his ideas
of progress were not suitable to his sur
roundings. For instance, he concluded
that branding cattle was useless-in fact.
barbarous-and he determined that the
redhot iron should never again be pressed
against the side Of an animal belonging to
him. He kept his word. but he didn't
keep his cattle.
This was a regular picnic for the cow
boys of that locality. who of all things
could never be accused of being at all
scrupulous on questions Of honor, es-
pecially when there was a steer involved
in the case. Well, the cowboys picked
up Mavericks cattle wherever they could
find them, and it was not long before
every hoof of them was gone and he was
reduced to almost poverty. Ever since
that every unbranded head Of cattle over
6 months of age has been called a MAYER
lex and is regarded by the cowboy as
the property of him who first finds it and
sticks his brand on it.-Louisville Com

Russian Drivers.

Nine. de Ujfalvy-Bourdon. describing
her travels in western Siberia, says that
for a part of the way she and her hrs-
band drove from town to town with
horses hired from the Cossacks. They
were fine horses and travelled with fright
full rapidity. Generally they were I'M
accustomed to being driven together.
Only the middle one-the most docile-
was harness,d before the time for start
ing. The others were not brought out
until the driver was on his seal. When
the manager of the station pronounced
the word ''gatof" (ready). the carriage
bounded forward. The horses tore mad
ly on for Is or 20 minutes, and it was
hard to tell whether they or the driver
had the mastery.
On the plain it was a magnificent drive.
When the horses were well started. the
driver let the reins hang loose, and they
kept up a fine pace. The driver had them
well in hand. and there was no danger;
he Gained and guided them with wonder
full skill. Honor to the Russian coach
men.-Manchester Times.

Difficulties of Smokers,

The Turks are now a nation of smok-
ers, but early in the seventeenth century
the priests and rulers denounced smoking
as criminal, and Amurath Nv ordered its
punishment by death in the cruelest
forms. One playful punishment con-
sisted in thrusting the pipes of smokers
through their noses.
In Russia. at the same period, the noses
of smokers were cut off. The powers
ecclesiastical were strongly opposed to
the new habit, and 'Popes Urban VIII
and Innocent x thundered in turn against
the terrible vice of smoking. The papal
thunders, however, proved powerless
against the charms of st. Nicotine. al
though there was much reason in those
DEGREES which were directed against the
custom of smoking and snuffing in
church. Pope Urban accommodated all
who should be guilty of so ~unbecoming
a practice. And later Innocent x sol
EMMY communicated all who should
take snuff or tobacco in St. Peters church
at Rome.-All the Year Round.

The Pillar of Safety.

Before the erection of the new univer.
sity buildings in Jena the professors
generally held their lectures in various
public halls scattered all over the town.
In the body Of one of these halls. where
the professor of theology used to hold
forth. there stood a large pillar. At the
close Of the session the students applied
to the professor for their certificates OF
attendance, when the latter remarked ia
one of the young men:
"But. my dear sir. I never saw you at
any of my lectures!"
"Oh. Herr Professor. | always sat be-
hind the pillar"

30 they were quickly Ia bed, and neither
being sleepy Black started to tell Jones
the story of the haunted room.
He had just finished when the old
cracked bell in the courthouse tower
struck midnight, and as the last rever-
berations died away a horses hoof strokes
could he distinctly heard upon the gravel
walk wit. out.
Suddenly and without warning the
windows commenced to rattle in their
easements. and a noise resounded from
the roof Is if torrents of rain were de-
scending upon it's weather beaten shin
giles.
Then came the clang of the old knocker
upon the hail door. The noises ceased as
quickly as they had begun. and all was
silence.
1I4en ''tap'-''tap"-''tap"-"tap"-
came the u~nmistakable sound of foot
steps upon the stairs, slowly and YEARLY
mounting. They ceased for a second or
two upon the landing outside. the door
swung noiselessly open. and a figure.
clearly seen in the moonlight. entered
and crossed the room.
Both men lying on the bed saw it
plainly and afterward described it az
that of a young and beautiful girl. tall
and slender. with golden curls framed
round a face of marble pallor. wide open
blue eyes and clothed from head to foot
in feecy white, with a single white rose
bud nesting above the ear.
Advancing slowly to one of the win
dows the figure stood a moment with
clasped hands, looking wistfully out into
the night and with the full glow of the
moonlight upon its upturned features.
Then it turned. approached the side Of
the bed where Jones lay, stopped and
placed a hand cold as earth itself upon
his forehead.
Up to tndt moment he and Black had
been too frightened to move or speak.
but when that icy hand was laid upon
him the spell was broken. Human Ia
ture could endure no longer. and with a
yell bo.h of them tumbled out of the
other side of the bed from where the fig
ure stood and bounded down the stairs.
They did not go back to the Hunter
house that night. In fact. it was some
days before they could summon nerve
enough to go in daylight and get their
clothes.

An Ingenious Lawyer.

The ingenuity Of lawyers in making
business for themselves is in course of
illustration in a reference case now in
progress down town. An estate is in
volved in the litigation. An u%nsuccess-
full contest {: a will left some Of the
litigants dissatisfied. This furnished the
lawyer his chance. He found that about
1875 persons might be entitled to q dip
into the estate if the will could be
broken. Re addressed a note to each OF
them, proposing to attack the will and
rendering his services on a contingent
arrangement. In this note he informed
them that proceedings would be begun
and that he would make defendants OF
all who did not join his movement.
With the apparent necessity forced upon
them of accepting his services without
charge or hiring various lawyers to pro
tect their interests, they fiocked to him.
When proceedings were started. he
issued circulars of information to his
clients and kept them posted on every
move. This involved some trouble and
expense. in which the clients were asked
to assist. In this way, while receiving
nothing that could be called a fee from
any one. the small contributions of his
1875 clients are said to have helped the
lawyers bank account an average of
$500 per month. As he is very industri-
BUS and does his work earnestly his
clients are glad to help him out. and
while he seems to be basing his chances
of reward solely on the success of his
suit he is making quite a comfortable
income. New York Times.

Only Rich Men Can Ee British Officers.

Notwithstanding the attempts which
the commander in chief has made from
time to time to make the army as a pro
fession less expensive. it is still quite as
costly as heretofore: consequently only
the sons of the wealthy are able to adopt
a military career. To begin with. there
are the crammer's fees for preparing the
yol tn for the necessary examination.
Then parents are required to spend hun
dreds Of pounds in order to support him
at Sandhurst or Woolwich. and subse-
~quently to supplement his small pay as
a junior officer of about ESQ to e100 per
annum. for it is an indisputable fact
that a subaltern cannot live in the aver
age line regiment on a smaller private
allowance than ESQ to e10O a year.
Then again. apart from all this ex-
pense. there is the cost of the young Of
icer's outfit. which. for the ordinary
British line regiment, runs from e120 to
G200. and if cash is not paid some Is or
90 per cent more must be added to this
amount. 1t is generally acknowledged
that officers SON make the best officers.
but if they and the sons of clergymen
and other professional men of moderate
means are to be enabled to adopt a mill
tary career an inquiry will have to be
instituted into regimental expenses and
a considerable reduction made, or the
army will continue to be exclusively Of
ficered by the sons of the rich, a practice
which is universally admitted to be in
