Astor's Storage Battery Yacht.

Col. John Jacob Astor has been more
in his devotion to electric propulsion on
the water, having experimental with ey-
cry known variety Of storage battery and
engine. His last attempt in this direction
is in quite a large launch, forty-seyen
feet long and furnished with twin screws
driven by thirty-horse power engines
actuated by storage cells. The boat is
beautiful in construction, can make ten
miles an hour, and has the electric quail
ty Of noiseiessness. Indeed so quietly
does she glide about the smooth Hudson
that very possibly from her deck one
could pick up a sleeping gull on the wa

A BEARS FAITHFUL VIGIL.
Found Crouching Over the Body of His
Dead Master.

Oedu master.
A hunter who was hunting in the back
portion of Harrison county, Miss, at
Daisy. some thirty miles from Scranton.
came upon the corpse of a man, over
which a large white bear was crouching.
The bear growled and rushed on the
hunter, who fired, killing the animal.
The body was found to be badly mutt
lated, but not devoured The hunter re-
ported the matter and it was found that
the dead man was Joseph Souquet, a
trenchman, recently from New Orleans.
who was travelling through the country
with tame dancing bear, giving eXhi-
billions.
The hunter was under the delusion
that he bear had killed Souquet, but all
the indications now are that the man
was murdered by robbers, as the country
where he was killed is wild, sparsely
settled and somewhat iawless, and the
satchel which he carried with him, and
which contained a considerable sum of
money, is missing
The bear was Il very tame one, and.
as SOuquet declared, "a brother to him. )
1t was probably watching over the body
of the murdered man when the hunter
came up, and mistook him for one of his
masters assailants. Souquet was p
years of age and from Marseilles,

IN ABSENCE.

Let no man say, He at his ladys feet
Lays worship that to Heaven alone be-
longs;
Yea swings the incense that for God is
meet
In fppant censers of light lovers songs
Who says it, knows not God, nor love, nor
thee:
For love is large as is yon heavenly dome;
In loves great blue, each passion is full free
To fly his favorite flight and build his
home.
Did Ger lark, with skyward pointing beak
Stab by mischance a level-fying dove?
Wife-love flies level his dear mate to seek
God-IOve darts straight into the skies

Crossing the windage of each others wings
But speeds them both upon their Journey

Pressed to the Wan.
Louisville, Ky, Sept 2.-Henry Wolfe
& Co., GA West Main street, one of the
largest wholesale clothing firms in the
South, filed a deed of assignment in the
county clerks Office today. The firm
owes 100000 to $250,O00 and has as,
sets which they believe will equal if not
exceed that sum. Attorney T. w. Spin
die has been named as assignee. The
firm is in reality successors to the OLD
house of Kuhn, Wolfe & Co., which did
business in this city for nearly fifty
years The cause of the assignment is
due to threa tened suits for $4,000 by
two banks and other suits for smaller
amounts by various Eastern creditors.
Neither, it seems, knew the other was
pressing the firm for settlement.

morning sentenced TO four years in the

drunkenness at various times, but had
never before been convicted of n felony.
O'Connor said that he came from Mis-

first arrest on a charge OF a felony.
The lawyer made plea for clemency
that brought smiles TO the faces of his
clients. He told the court that punish

New YORK, Feb. pa Washington
special to the World this morning says !:
Frank b. Noyes, business manager of the
EUeninq Star of this city and one of the
most prominent and popular young men
i'm Washington, announced this evening
that he had telegraphed his lawyers in
New York to have Charles A. Dana, editor
of the New York Sun. arrested for criml-
nal libel. The Sun this morning printed
long editorial article attacking the
management of the associated press, in
the course of which was this sentence:
AZ hey 1.-THE subscribers of the associated
press) may see the way to making such a
thoroughly dishonest director as Is. B..
Noyes of Washington, for instance, re-
fund to them the amount of the extra
assessments out of which they have been
buncoed." This attack on Mr.. Noyes
created a sensation here. No one stands
higher in the capital than he, either in
business or society. Noyes acted
promptly.
In the Star tonight the leading editorial
article concluded with these words: For
this malicious personal libel, committed
without a shadow of justification or ex-
cuse, the Sun shall be made to suffer, If
there is any virtue in criminal law in New
York"
In accordance with this Mr.. Noyes bad
early telegraphed New York for counsel,
but could not conduct negotiations on &C
count of it being a holiday. His case will
probably be conducted by General
Swayne. The matter will be taken up in
the morning and the papers will be pre-
pared. On Sunday Mr.. Moves will go to
New York and finish preparations for the
prosecution of his criminal suit.
