Over a Ton If Dynamite Exploded by a
 Careless Soldier In Rio Janeiro.
 BALTIMORE. Oct. .3.-Captain Hud- gins of the coffee bark Dom Pedro II. now in port. gives n graphic description of n dynamite explosion that occurred in Rio n few days prior to Sept. G. when his vessel sailed for Baltimore. A Brazilian soldier discovered near the English ceme- tery a subterranean magazine, in which the insurgents of the recent rebellion had concealed quantity of gunpowder car tridges and dynamite shells, which they evidently intended using against the gov ernment.
 The soldier reported his find to the gen eral commander and n rough cart drawn by two mules was sent to the sceno to TO- move the contents of the hidden maga- zine to a place of safety. A detachment of soldiers accompanied tho cart, and a curious crowd of citizens followed it to the little hill which had been dug out to hold the explosives. A quantity of the shells had been placed in tho cart. and a pile of others had been passed out close behind 1t. when ono of tho soldiers, while in the act of handling a shell. dropped 1t among tho others.
 The same second an explosion shook the earth. A sheet of flame shot upward, and q cloud of whitish smoke hid every thing from view. The vessels In the har. bor rocked at their moorings. and the en tire city was thrown into wild excitement Over ton of dynamite had exploded from the dropping of the shell. The sol diers and mules were blown into frag ments, and only the iron tires of the car wheels were found. Over 50 persons wer, | reported killed.

LIKE A DREAM.
She Could Hardly Believe it
 at First
Bat Nox it is a Very Pleasant and Lasting
 Reality.
A Popular Person Gives Some Interesting
 Information.

No dream could be more pleasant than the experience which Ellen c. A. Mitch ell of 297 Mineral Spring avenue, Paw tucket. R. l., has had. She has been a fearful sufferer and had abandoned hope. but suddenly her sorrows all left her and she was we'll woman. She writes the fol- lowing most fascinating account:
 -Four years ago was tak.n sick with typhoid fever which left me entirely un- done. My nerves were completely un- strung and I could not bear inc last noise. The slightest sound would make me start and iremble all over. When these trembling spells came on my only relief was to lie down and try to obtain rest.
 Almost every day was attacked with severe nervows headache II l attempted ! 10 walk across the floor the pain would bs irightful. as if my head would split open. The palpitation of my heart was some thing dreadful l could not go up or down stairs without having those terrible spells.
 "The least excitement caused a continu- ai huttering which was orrib!e in its suf locating sensations. In fact life was un- beaRble. A lady fri, nd who had been greatly benefited by Dr. Greena's Servura blood and nerve remedy, adNi el me to try it.
 I iSIltI WHICH l OUthinGu can only be understood by ether sufferers, who. after many years of suffering. have at last found health My headaches. which had made my life 90 full of toIture. as we'll as all my other troubles. have been entirely cured by Dr. Greene's Nervura blood anC nerve remedy.
 "Now I can go through life free from al suffering. l can honestly say that hav' a new life before nc. I urge all sufferers to use this gr, ct medicine II they wish t' be well.'
 No sufferer can possibly hesitate aftti reading of so wonderful a cure. to take Dr Greene's NervuTa blood and nerve remedy It is a certain cure for disease. It iS pure ly vegetable and harmless. and Is the dis covery Of Dr. Greene, of s5 West l4tl St, New York city. who has for many year used il Tn hIs practice.

HOW TO DEAL WITH NOES.
The Remedy Is In the Power of the
 Troops, but Is Most Terrible.


 Troops, but Is Most Terrible. The new tactics of the army and navy contain @ very complete street riot drill l One of the most serious difficulties with l which an armed force has to contend in | iealing with rioters is an enfilading fire rom windows, housetops and cross Hreets.
 The commanding officer has the pow 1T to send out scouts in citizens clothes, Sho may be provided with signaling apparatus These men may occupy 1ousetOps or other vantage ground and xeep the commander informed of the points at which rioters arc massed- Troops need not he brought to the scene III column, nor is there any necessity of making futile effort to deploy as skir- nishers. The unit of formation for the street riot drill is the hollow square. and it may be employed in company, battalion or even brigade. The advan- age of the hollow square is that it pro- 5ides for an all around fire.
 The front line attends to the street ahead of it. The right flank of the square directs its fire at the windows md tops of houses on the left side of he street, and the left flank at those on the right. The rear line acts as ear guard, throwing out in rear of the ldvancing column a semicircle of men, ] who direct their fire to the rear and 1 sides as it may be needed. The hollow | square can be marched by either flank i or to the rear. just as column can be 1 The officers are inside the square ! If the advancing column Is harassed ! 1y mobs in the cross streets, there Is simple and effective way of dealing with such Instructions The platOOns or sections of the leading company wheel 70 the right and left, and the rear rank extends in double time to the right of the front rank. This will make n line long enough to extend across n very broad street. The commander may then order these sections to open fire or to .harge bayopctS. and thus the cross streets can be cleared. In the meantime :hc remainder of the column continues its march along the original street, and the leading company, having finished its work in the cross street, reforms as the rear company of the body.

LONDON, Oct 23-Tho St Petersburg correspondent of The Daily News says that private telegrams received Monday from Livadia confirm official dispatches. They announce that the cZar's mental faculties are somewhat moro active, and that he seems tn have gained confidence by his short walk In the castle garden. The weather at Livadia Is beautiful.
 All agree that overmuch importance must not be attached to his mHjestys temporary betterment. Tho doctors keep their patient out of bel much possi- ble, first, to maintain his moral energy, and, second. on account of the weak ness of his heart, which, with long lying, be- comes very dangerous.
 The relations betwecn the cZar and ear owitz do not appear to bc of tho best.
 Tho statements, however. arc unfounded that the cZar had heated quarrel with
 his son which excited him in n manner dangerous to one in his condition. still 1t is no secret that the cZarowitz does not care much about the throne. not on account of love affairs, but from observa-
 tion of tho continual excitement and ter
 TOT in which his father lived. Tho sud denness of the crisis had served to intcnSi fy his aversion, yet nobody here believes he will execute his intention to rcnOunce the throne.
 Preparations have been mado to de
 crease the aversion of tho czarowitz to | succeed his father. It Is stated that dur | ing the last three days he has signed all | official documents, and that the cZar has | admonished him to adhere to tho advice | of NJ. Bunge, president of the ministerial committed.
 A dispatch to The Times from St. Pc | tersburg says that besides the offering of | prayers for the recovery of the czar in all | the churches tho holy synod has ordered l that there be prayers for the same end | offered in tho army and navy and on
