sc )RES OF LIVES LOST.
Repor.s Are Coming Into London OF
Wro SKIS at Almost Every
Port.

London. Oct. 2.-The intense heat
which has prevailed throughout Great
Britain during the past ten days, state
of affairs classed as unprecedented in
weather records, eliminated yesterday
in sudden drop of % degrees in the
temperature. This was followed by
heavy gale, which has already caused
much damage along the coasts. A dis
patch from Deal announces that two
steamers have been driven ashore on
the treacherous Goodwin Sands and the
news of other disasters to shipping is
constantly being received.
A telegram from the north coast of
Deyonshire from Irfracombe, at the
mouth of the Bristol canal, announces
that six would-be lifesavers have been
drowned while attempting to rescue the
crew of the Ketch Arabella, which was
ashore in a dangerous position OF that
coast.
Several vessels are reported as being
ashore on the Gore Sands. Their crews
have been rescued by the lifeboatmen.
On the Somersetshire coast there have
been several exciting rescues and in
Bridgewater bay steam tug, after
long battle with the waves, sank near
stuck to his post to the last The re-
naming members of the tugs crew
succeeded in swimming ashore.
A telegram from Southport states that
it is feared several fishing boats belong
ing to that place have been lost during
the gale of last night.
A dispatch from Blackpool announces
that three fishing smacks hailing from
that port foundered during the night, and
in spite of the efforts which the life
boatmen made to assist them, five of the
fishermen were drowned.
The coasting steamer Bull Dog was
driven ashore on the Borrow fats, where
the crew were rescued.
Dispatches received here from Liver
pool say that the gale there was ac-
companied by binding rain and that
number of ships on the River Mersey
displayed signals of distress. The same
state of affairs is reported from other
parts of the country and all along the
coasts the lifeboatmen were kept busy
throughout the night, succeeding in saw
ing many lives.
Dispatches from various points show
that many ships in distress were desert
ed by their crews. The full extent of
the ravages of the gale will naturally
not be known for some days to come,
but there is no doubt that the shipping
interests have suffered considerably. No
damage to American shipping has been
reported up to the present.

WHEN GIBSON TAKES THE STAND.
Sensational Proceedings IN the Durrant
Case Looked For.

San Francisco. Cal, Oct. 3.-It is ex-
pected that the defense in the Durrant
case will take up the matter of the hand
writing on the wrapper in which Blanche
Lamont's rings were sent to Mrs. Noble
as soon as the witnesses Of the Coope,
Medical college are disposed Of. The
examination of the remaining sixteen
students to testify as to Durrant's at
tendance at college will probably con,
sumo this mornings session of court and
then the evidence calculated to cast sus.
picion upon DR.. Gibson will most likely
be introduced by the defense. A sub
poenae was issued yesterday for DIR.
Gibson's appearance in court today, but
I'D to a late hour last night he had not
been served. He is expected to be on
hand when he is wanted this afternoon.
A most sensational phase of the trial is
looked for when DR.. Gibson faces Dur.
rants lawyers in court.

like most men, he disliked being put in
q ridiculous position, and strenuously OBJ
iacted to being the declared hero of a
romantic girl, however charming he
thought her. The daughter of his own

For several days after this he saw
nothing of her.
The Colone! had driven ont about ten
miles to look at some ground where the
regiment were to practice accommodating,

thing that made his horse suddenly
swerve.
It was Jane, seated on the ground, and
near her stood bamboo cart with broken

The Birds.

At little fishing village last summer
on the coast Of the Devonshire was
noticing the tameness of the sea gulls
as they flew around the boats, when
they drew to land or sat like so many
barn door fowls waiting for any bit OF
fish thrown to them.

are getting tanner again now, but for
long time they kept aloof. A couple
of city men came down here and began
blazing away at the poor tame crea-
lures. that did not know at first what
it meant, for they had never had stone
thrown at them in their lives. How
many they would have killed, just for
fun. as they said, don't know, if we
fishermen hadn't stopped them; for the
gulls we consider our friends. We like
to hear their wild cries, and they lead
us to places where the fish are shoaling.
But it was a long time before they be-
came tame again"

night at backwoods cabin with q

morning the farmer was awakened by

The Constable's Perquisite.

A marriage took place in the Office Of =
well known justice of the peace few days
ago that, while IA most impre siye Ccre-
mony to the contracting parties, had a
very humorous side for the spectators. The
couple were evidently from the rural dis
trctS and were both seemingly covered
with confusion at their having to stand up
before the four or five present, After the
form had been read, the bluShug pair
standing haud in hand, the magistrate
announced in serious tone that rs il
was the custom for the constable to kiss
the bride she would prepare herself for the
OSCILLATION.
Tho constable stepped boldly out, and,
being n good looking young fellow, the
young woman seemed not aVerse to being

act were soon set at rest, for tho husky
groom stepped before her with an air OF
