HOW IT HAPPENED.
Engineer Nuffer Tells of the Wreck on the Interoceanic Railroad.
 Had to Flee for His Life.

ST. LOUIS, March B.-A special from La redo, Tex, says that Engineer John Nuf- fer, the American who is held responsible by many in Mexico for the wreck on the Interoceanic railway February 2S last, arrived in Laredo yesterday. He gives the following as the correct story of the acci- dent:
 He was pulling the first section of an ex- cursion train, which was returning to Mex ico City. There were fourteen coaches in h is section. The accident occurred at l2:06, twenty minutes after be had left Tenango, in which time the train ran only seven Rllo- meters. This, if true, proves that the train was not running at high rate Of speed, as has been charged. At the point of a curve the fourth coach left the track, having broken an axle. This set the automatic brakes, and the engine and first three coaches did not go forward more than 20 feet. The colored coach behind the ono which left the track was what was known as an English ironclad, the frame work being of steel and the sides of iron. This coach plowed through the two coaches in front of it and caused the havoc which cost many passengers their nVes' The passengers in this coach all escaped;
 ssAs soon as the accident occurred, says Nuffer, "I went 10 the rescue of the sui ferers, and while engaged in doing all l could to relieve their sutferings was warned that had better get away from the scene, as some of them threatened to kill me be- cause they lost their relatives in the wreck. l was fired upon and slightly wounded in the hip. i'm mediately left the scene and escaped to Mexico City, from whence came to the UnitedaStates, and had not been a Mason 1 never could have gotten out of the country. MT. Sullivan, superin- tendent of the line, was with me when the accident occurred. To my Knowledge there were no charges pending against me in Mexico.b

A Kind Word For the Sparrow.

The sparrow has several characteristics that are altogether admirable. Very few of tho creatures who navigate the air or walk upon the ground show greater capac- ity or willingness to take care of them- selves. The sparrow, like the despised rat, has no little merit as a tiny scaveDger, and, like the rat, where man goes he fol- lows.
 It is safe to say nothing has been made in vain. Even those creatures which arc esteemed by man as vermin have their place and thoir use in the wise order of Providence. This is none the less truo be- cause we cannot penetrate the wisdom of creation. Despite the persecution of his enemies and the vagaries of the weather, it will be observed that the sparrow four ishes. The merciful men and women who look after the vagrant birds and dogs and other creatures who mutely appeal to hu- man sympathy will not go without their reward. rd.-Philadelph Record.

 iLY-RAILRoAD FACILITIES.

BUSINESS.

NEW YORK, March S.-Bradstreet to- morrow will say: The general business situation shows more improvement. From several centers this is declared to be due in part to the adjournment of congress, and to some extent to better weather. Gains are shown in an increased demand for lum- Der and other building materials and in re- ceipts of larger orders for structural iron and steel, together with the absorption of avaiiable stocks of Bessemer pig iron.
 In the south Augusta cotton factories have received large number of orders, many for future delivery. h almost all staple dry goods, hats, shoes, millinery and hardware.
 Fine foreign wools continue to attract the special attention heretofore reported, and are competing successfully with. corre- spending American grades. London re- ports a moderately higher and stronger market for wool. Cotton goods are gen. erally weaker, and piece cloths are once more down to 2kc for 64s.
 Jobbing at Charleston is more active and a nu m Der of merchants are north to obtain goods. Improvement is shown in sales of shoes and clothing at Memphis, and there passage of the sugar bounty act. Atlanta and Augusta report larger sales of hard ware and dry goods. Trade has been quite slow at Chattanooga and Nashville, but the outlook Is for improvement. At Jackson. vile and Savannah business is fair and col- lections moderately so. Some improvement is reported from Birmingham, where col lections continue slow. Galveston advices are that trade is not as good as week ago.

The London Graphic. in it's recent sum- ming up of the half dozen successful novels of the year, includes with Du Maurier's "Trlby," Hall Caine's Manxman," Conan Doyle's t'Sherlock Holmes, o 'The Heavenly Twins" and :Ships That Pass in the Night'' Mrs. E. Burke Collins IA Modern Heathen.
 Speaking of this last work of our distin- guished southern author, the Graphic says:
 ''What George W. Cables writings are to the Creoles of New Orleans, Miss Mur- free to the rough strata of humanity among the Tennessee mountains and Gertrude Atherton to California, Mrs. E. Burke Collins are to the Acadians of the Louisi- ana pine lands. In her latest work Mrs. Collins has struck new vein in literature, opening to the novel reading world vis- ion of the real life of the Acadians of the backwoods among the wild, scarcely known region of the bayous and swamps of Louisiana.
 Besides her novels she contributes each week short stories, sketches, etc., to the prominent magazines and to a great variety of other publications.
 Although her writing has always been a labor of love, yet such incessant mental exertion, constantly harvesting the ideas

of her brain without single idle season or fallow time for rest and refreshment, could not fail to have it's effect on the recupera- tive power of her nervous system. At one time she found herself tired out and weak from such uninterrupted work; she be- came nervous and incapable of work; she even saw nervous prostration staring her in the face. The general toning up that her system needed so badly she found in Paine's celery compound. Today she is perfectly well and strong again, busy as ever with her brain and pen, and grateful to Paine's celery compound for the timely help when failure and trouble and despair seemed about to close round her and shut her off from everything that was dear to her. She says:

Sex In Ants.

The different species of ants are pretty generally distributed over the globe, and on this account the naturalists infer that there is work for them to do in the great economy ofithe universe. In each colony males, females, neuters and sometimes sol liers are to Do recognized. The males are invariably smaller than the females, and. like those of tho feminine gender, have wings in their original state. The neuters, which are the workers, are without wings in any of their transformations and the soldiers are recognized by the armor plates = --Air heads.-St. Louis Rannhli~

HOW TO KILL A GRIZZLY BEAR.
The Only Safe Way Is to First Catch Your
 Bear, Then Cut His Throat.

"The only safe way to kill a grizzly bear is to cut his throat, !" said an old forty miner who has come back to Louis vile to end his days. 1T learned this when took that trip from Sacramento to Lower California with a herd of cattle and only greaser and myself to drive 'em.
 "We had been out for three days On the morning of the third day, just about dawn we were awakened by the believing of frightened cattle. We expected stam- pede, and both of us jumped to our feet and on our horses. Then we began to ride around the cattle to keep them from breaking and running It didn't take us long to discover the cause of the cattle's fright About 300 yards distant was big grizzly with his head down making for our camp The Mexican saw him tho same time did
 1T unslung my gun and held it in read mess to shoot as soon as bruin was in' range The Mexican held up his hand warningly and yelled, 'Waitl He took his lasso of the horn of his saddle, and digging his spurs into the sides of his pony rode down upon the bear as fast as he could go. He passed the bear, and when 15 feet behind him wheeled his horse. Inen, WnlfllDg HIS ias6o dDoub llS head, he let fly at the running bear The lasso settled nicely over one of the lifted feet The trained pony lifted himself on his launches, and the lasso frightened his grip on tho bears leg. This angered the bear, and he turned with growl and started directly toward the Mexican, who rode toward little clump of trees just north of the camp. He kept drawing in the lasso and expected to tighten it and drag the bear but bruin was fast upon his feet and kept in easy distance of the greaser.
 tTho horseman rode behind one of the . trees and jumped from his horse. Bruin started after him and reached around the tree to get him. The willy greaser began to jump about from side to side of the tree, with the bear always following, but never getting any closer than just opposite. The result was that bruin was finally wrapped tightly about with the lasso and was tied to the tree. When the greaser got the bear in this position, be held on to tho end of the lasso in his hand and showing his teeth in a broad grin looked at me. Reach. ing down into his greasy sash, he pulled out long, sharp knife and made one slash across the bears throat. That did him. "-Louisville Courier Journal.

and was irritable and nervous. Four bot ties of Pains's celery compound gave mo strength, quieted my nerves and brought sleep to my pillow. I owe lasting grati- tude to this wonderful medicine, and take pleasure in adding mine to the long list of testimonials. Yours gratefully,

 Paine's celery compound is found to best supply the great need of studious, seden- tary people. It's extensive use by brain workers, both men and women, suffering from sleeplessness, indigestion or other effects of deficient nerve force, shows it's ability to feed tired, emaciated, nervous tissues. Nothing else has eyer possessed anything like the power of Paine's celery compound to restore a healthy nervous tone to the entire body and to thoroughly cleanse the blood. School teachers, pro- fessional men, newspaper men, ministers, public officials, men whose daily outlay of vitality, because of hard, trying, anxious work, is excessive, find renewed strength, not only of the nerves, but, through their healthy action, of the entire body, in Paine's celery compound. Its use shortly dispels headaches, rheumatic pain, dyspep. sia, heart trouble, general debi lity and lauguor and all other outward signs of thu grave mischief that comes from disorderet nerves and impure blood.

RUBINSTEIN AND GRAIN.
How the Two Great Musicians Were
 Brought Together In London.

How the Two Great Musicians Were
 Brought Together In London.
 My impression of Joachim as having the worst hat In London had it's pendant, writes correspondent in my recollec- tion of Rnbinstein as having tho thickest boots. No musician was ever less of an exquisite He had no affectations. He wore black broadcloth with a nap on it of the kind that parsons used 50 years ago and a soft felt hat and, notwithstanding this prosaic setting, looked like Japanese Beethoyen-like a Beethoven that had fallen off the side of a teacup.
 He had not, fancy, much humor, but he had great good nature, and once saw it tested It was during his second visit here, when all London was mad over him, and there was something like Pa derewski fever prevalent, and they were fortunate who could hear him play in pri- vate. At this party all musical London was assembled, and he was one of the first guests asked to play. Every one knows how excited he used to get over the piano and how fond he was when his work was over of the solace of cigar. So this night he withdrew from the instrument with his host, and the grateful fragrance of weed asserted itself from tho little ante room, whose door was discreetly closed. In due time the hostess had to call on an- other guest, and there was some interest to sec who could succeed Rubinstein.
 ''She asked MT. Corney Grain. She was almost bride, new to the ways of Lon- don life but it was often afterwa ard point ed out as evidence of her savoir faire that she should have called on the one musician in the room whose absolute opposition of style made rivalry impossible. I remem- ber Corney Grain sang something about
 Meet me when the lark's asleep.
 Ere Flora fills her dewy cup,
 When festive beetles homeward creep
 Before the early morn is up.
 "He was sitting with his back to the door, back even then of commanding proportions, and gradually the fragrance of that cigar became more and more in evidence. The door opened first little, then little more, then completely. and at last Rubinstein elided out, with Felix Moscheles by his side, and stood near the piano delighted with what he listened to. The artists wore introduced. remember the evening as well as if it were last night It was tho more memorable because that night he did not break string. "-Pall Mall Budget.

WILFRED CLARKE'S SUCCESS IN
 PHILADELPHIA.

For seven consecutive weeks the Girard theater, Philadelphia, nightly turned peo. pie from it's doors, the attraction being MT. Wilfred Clarke, supported By a specially selected company in rehued English con- edy. The hold which these sterling plays have upon the public when properly pre- sented by capable artists was never better shown than in this recent engagement of MT. Clarke's at the Girard. Every detail of an artistic production had been carefully studied, and the versatility of this eminent actor's talent has given 10 the interpreta- tion of every part he essayed 6 portraiture as faithful in character as 1t is delightful in expression.
 Mir. Clarke will be seen here on the even- ing of the 11th as Maj. Wellington De- Boots, in Coyne's great comedy of "A Widow Hupt.'

 TLe Huey Guards, under whose auspices the performance was rendered and for whose benefit it was, received a nice sum as a reward for their time and trouble.

THINGS DRAMATIC.

The s'Gold Brick" farce comedy, by Messrs. Aubrey Harwell and Frank Evans, Jr., was the attraction at O'Brien's last night.
 The plot is taken from the gold brick ewindle recently perpetrated in this city, by which an old gentleman was aeeced of f6OO0. The play is cleverly written and is interspersed with catchy specialties.
 The young gentlemen taking part ID the play were very good and showed consider able talent in the dramatic line. They really have good cause to congratulate themselves on the successful manner in which they presented the play.
 The audience was rather small, due to several causes, but those who witnessed the performance were not disappointed.
 The performance will be rep.ated at mat inee this afternoon, and all who desire to spend a couple of hours pleasantly should witness 1t.
