the Sailors Who Are Swept from the
Decks.
PRovINCETowN, Mass, Feb. 1.-THE
wrecked schooner Fortuna has gone to
pieces. The debris strewed the shore
for miles. All of the rescued crew
have arrived in town and have been
taken care of. The names of the men
drowned are: James Mclean, of Glou-
cester, leaves widow and several chill
dren. Abraham Brown, of Gloucester;
married just before starting on this
voyage.
Heavy snow drifts make it almost
impossible to get team out to the sta
ton AT daybreak yesterday morning
large three-masted schooner came
ashore near the station. The seas made
clean break over her, the spray dash
ing mp nearly as high as the mastheads.
One heavy sea struck the vessel on the
quarter and brought her head off shore
and it is supposed the crew were all
washed overheard. 1t has been the
most severe starm of the season and
the life-saving station men have had a
very hard experience.

masted schooner Minnie Rowan, with
coal for Boston, from Baltimore, be-
fore reported stranded near third cliff,
lies at sea 1000 feet from the shore be-

FlREMEN BURNED TO DEATH.
Eight Men Killed In Paris and Seventeen
Severely Injured.

PARIS, Feb. IS. "A fire occurred Sun
day in the Rue de Reuilly. While the
firemen and workmen were engaged in
the basement of the burning building
a carboy of sulphuret of carbon ex-
ploded. The flames completely en-
veloped the party. Eight fremen were
killed and seventeen workmen severely
burned.
The men were called out to a fire in
building on the RE de Neully. The
fire started in the basement, which
contained much inhammable material,
besides large quantity of drugs,
chemicals and oils. They had great
difficulty in getting at the fire, which
was slowly eating its way among the
casks and packages.
The tiremen broke into the basement
and with the workmen We're hard at
work removing goods in order to give
them better chance to fight the fire.
They had succeeded in getting an open
ing and We're playing on the fire with
q line of hose when the carboy eX-
ploded.
The stuff ignited at once and filed
the basement with flames and suffo-
eating vapors. Pieces of broken casks
flew in every direction and added to
the horror. The eight men working
with the hose line were completely en-
veloped by the flames and vapors and
were all dead before assistance could
reach them.
The workmen, many of whom were
near the carboy, were horribly burned
and disigured. None is known to be
fatally injured, but the attending ply
, sicians are apprehensive lest several in
hailed the flames or received dangerous
injuries from the vapors.

GREGG, negro, assaulted Mrs. Taylor
Saturday morning near Buckeye
and brutally beat her, leaving her
more dead than alive. Hundreds
of men searched the country all
day long Saturday and Sunday
morning renewed the search with
success. The negro was captured at
Oswego by the officers. who started
with him on the train for Jacks boro
Jail. At Buckeye they were met by a
mob and overpowered and the pris-
oner taken from them. The officers
finally induced the mob to give
McCreeg a trial before justice
of the peace. There We're two
Justices in the crowd, and after 60
ing through the form of trial the pris-
oner was held without bail Before
the mitimus could be written fou,
masked Een came out of Taylor's house,
where the negro had been taken for
identification by Mrs Taylor, and
seized the prisoner and rushed him up
a ravine. The mob kept the officers
back until the four masked men had
disappeared with the negro. Several
shots were soon heard and in a short
time the crowd was permitted to ex-
plore the thicket into which McCreeg
had been taken. They soon came upon
his lifeless body hanging from tree.

NOTED CASE SETTLED.
A Bequest of $4,000 Dwindles Down to
$500, Being Reing Reduced by Court
and Counsel Fees.


and Counsel Fees.
CAMDEN, n. j., Feb. 14.--The case of
Henry George against John 7. Wood
settled yesterday, when Lawyer Wood
huh paid over about 5000 in his posses
sion, to Henry George, the plaintiff.
Some years ago George Bowers, an
eccentric old resident of Ancora, died,
leaving about s1s, 600 or $50, OOO the
greater part of which he willed to Mr..
George for the dissemination of his
book. The western relatives of the
deceased man objected to the money
going for such a purpose and went into
the court of chancery to prevent the
bequest.
Vice Chancellor Bird decided in fa-
vor of the opponent of Henry George,
but the latter carried the case to the
court of last resort, where the decision
was reversed.
In the meantime the original fortune
of $40, 600 was reduced by court and
counsel fees to less than half that
amount. Then other tedious litigation
arose which further shrunk the sum to
a few hundreds, until finally it reached
the Camden circuit court with but 5000
left. The widow of the man who left
George the money not being able to OBJ
tain even her dover, was obliged to go
to the county almshouse, where she
died of broken heart some months
ago During the progress of the litiga-
tion Mr.. George offered to let the widow
have generous amount of the legacy,
but the other heirs were unwilling to
agree to such a charitable use of a por'
! ton of the money

Rich Deposit of Gold.

BRAZIL, Ind, Feb. 1.-two experts
from Chicago, who have been in the
city for the past few days examining
the ore found on M. w. Carpenters
farm south of the city, claim it is rich
with gold and silver. In examining
the location where the ore was found
they discovered that the ground was
full of the precious metal, which
means thousands of dollars for Mr..
Carpenter. Gold bugs from the west
had previously examined this and
tried to purchase it from Mr.. Carpen-
ter, who, thinking the ore valuable by
the amount of money offered him, re-
fused to dbpose of it at any price.

KANSAS CITY, Feb. 14.-Reports re-
ceived here yesterday from Oklahoma
and the Indian Territory make it al
most certain that at least thirty lives
were lost during the great storm of
Sunday. Many isolated homesteads
where the families were poorly pre-
pared for winter cannot be heard from
for days and possibly weeks and there
is a reason to believe that thirty will
not represent the total number of the
deai. In western and southwestern
Kansas there was great suffering and
it is probable that in more than one
sod house dead bodies will some day
be found.
