An Apple Tree In Blossom.

An apple tree in blossom at the end
Of October was one of the curious sights
presented to All observer yesterday morn
ming during a stroll about the quiet
streets of Bath Beach, Long Island. An
immense cluster nodded from the top
most twig and gayly babe defiance tc
the approaching storm. The tree stands
in the yard Of the residence of R. T..
Mitchell Oh Bay Eleventh street, close
to the shore. Mr.. Mitchell. q hotel keep
er on Bath avenue, planted the tree in
the fall Of 1894. It bore an excellent
crop this year, but the ravages of worms
robbed 1t Of its beauty until, to Mitch
ellis surprise last month, the sturdy
youngster came out again in full bios

Curious Phenomenon stops Business and
Work In ~Pittsburg.
A meteorological phenomenon Of un-
usual character attracted wide attention
In Pittsburg and vicinity between 10
and IL O'Clock the other morning. Rain
and wind were prevailing, the atmos-
phere was heavy, and the clouds hung
low.
Suddenly a fall of darkness, growing
In intensity. came up the Ohio valley
from the northwest. 1t produced an eff
feet like the shadow of an eclipse. 1t
seemed to be produced by an area Of low
sweeping clouds, large enough to cover
the heavens and dense enough to cut
of all light from above. The darkness
was remarkable and alarming.
Carpenters stopped their work ON new
buildings. People rushed to the doors
and windows. Shoppers and even clerks
poured out of the stores, and in a few
minutes the streets were filled with
throngs of people, all looking upward
apprehensively.
Business indoors and out was sus-
pended. In the outskirts Of the city the
air was filled with myriads Of leaves.
Down the Ohio river a beautiful fea-
ture Of the phenomenon was exhibited
when the darkness was at its height by
the sudden dawning Of a spot Of silver
brightness low down on the horizon, in
the center of the Ohio valley and over
the waters of the Ohio. This was the
rear guard Of the darkness. Both it and
the cloud travelled with about the We
locity that a cloud shadow in midsum-
mer does when it sweeps over the mead
ows. The brightness following was like
molten silver, and beneath it the river
took on the same effect. The falls Of the
river at Davis island dam, which a mo-
ment before had Deer lost to sight in the
darkness, now seemed like a line Of
quicksilver across the river, above and
beyond which the city was lost to sight
in inky darkness. This light revealed
long cloud streamers travelling with sur
prising rapidity. Then in turn the light
frightened up the city.
Three times came waves Of darkness
and light. The light waves were narrow
and Of startling intensity, while the
dark wave covered the whole heavens.

manifestation to pass, but everybody

FATAL ACCIDENT.
Jeremiah Montague, Aged 48 Years, In
stantly Killed by Being Caught Be-
tween Cars at the Depot This
Morning.

A most distressing and fatal accident
occurred at the Madison depot this
morning by which jeremiah Montague,
brother Of s. r. Montague, the wheat
buyer and coal dealer, lost his life. Mr..
Montague, the victim of the accident,
with his son and VIM. Hewlett had gone
to run a car on the sidetrack down to
the coal shed at the Montague elevator.
Two cars stood together on the side
track and the three men got one separa-
ted from the other about seven feet and
were pushing it down the track, Mr..
Montague in the middle pushing. on the
bumper and the other men one on each
side of him. While they were doing
this Conductor Whites west end crew,
Felix Vidal, engineer, and Eli Veins
berg, brakeman, we're switching cars on
to this sidetrack farther west and had
sent a car down the track without the
engine but with Brakeman Weinsburg
upon 1t. The brakeman did not know
that there we're any men between the
two cars toward which his car was roll
ing nor that there was anyone there
abouts. The car he was on struck the
other with considerable force, sending it
up against the car the men were push.
ing snd in ali instant Mr.. Montague was
caught between the bumpers, crushing
the life out Of him instantly. The lower
portion Of his chest, including the heart
and stomach, ribs and backbone were
crushed and mangled, the body being
pinioned between the bumpers and
dragged q dozen feet or more before the
cars stopped. Mr.. Hewlett and young
Montague narrowly escaped to either
side after the collision and before the
cars rolled onward. MIR. Hewlett re-
ceived a severe confusion OF the shoulder
which causes him considerable pain.
The body Of MI. Montague was removed
to T. Lannon's undertaking rooms, and
an inquest was held before Justice
Holdridge this afternoon at his Office,
j. J. Fitzgerald, E. Sheridan and Frank
Palmer acting as jurors, rendering a YER.
dict IN accordance with the above facts.

Court at Silver City.

The session of the District Court fol-
Owyhee County was commenced by
Judge Richards on Tuesday and during
this week several civil cases have been
disposed of by motions. The important
criminal cases have been set for next
week and veniries for jurors issued to
be present on Wednesday. VIM. II.
Thomas, charged with the murder of
Jack Ford, at Silver City, and Peeler
Foster, charged with the murder of W m.
Gates at DeLamar, were each arraigned
and entered pleas of not guilty.
This is the first instance in Owyhee
County when capital criminal cases are
to come before the court for trial with
out the circumlocution of an investiga-
ton by grand jury. The cases are
brought up by the prosecuting attorney
on information.
Persons who have been in attend
ance on the court during the week,
speak in very complimentary terms of
the prompt manner in which Judge
Richards disposes of matters coming
before bin.
The attorneys for the defence in the
case Of Won. II. Thomas are making
strong effort to secure change ofvenue
for him upon the plea that the preiu-
dice against him in Owyhee County
would make it impossible for him to Sc
cure an impartial trial in this county.
The civil cases to be tried by the
court are unimportant.

Messrs. Roberts and Hogan, came
over from their Middle Boise placer
grounds, week ago. Fred Cove stop
ped in Boise. The men say the want
of water has prevented them doing
/ much this spring, but they have ac-
complished enough to satisfy them that
they have very rich ground to work
and they have already begun taking a
ditch from the river to work their bars.
Heretofore they have been trying to
work with water from gulch and this
almost entirely failed them this spring.
They only had ten days run with one
nozzle, at so feet pressure, but during
that ten days cleaned up nearly $500.
The ditch to be taken from the river
will be 81 miles in length. One mile
of this they have now completed. This
ditch will be rs feet above the river
bed at the bars and viii give them wa
ter sufficient to work several nozzles all
the summer. They have 100 acres of
bars which are considered the best yet
discovered an the river and when this
ditch is completed they feel assured
that they will be in possession of one of
the most important placer enterprises
in the state, which willtake many years
to work out. These grounds now be-
long to five men, all well known in De-
Lamar, they being, besides the three
men named above, Dir. F. S. Heer and |
George B. Campbell. These gentlemen
in order TO raise means to complete
their ditch as speedily as practicable
are negotiating with other DeLamar
parties to take an interest with them.
Messrs. Hogan and Roberts will return
at once to continue work. They assert
that they can make big wages sluicing
ground in the river, but see the impor-
lance Of working their ground on a
more comprehensive plan and will con-
-iDue work upon their ditch.

every possible precaution to make the
tramway safe, procuring the best cables
made in the world and watching them
closely and removing them as frequent
ly as necessary; keeping the track ami
cars in the best possible condition, there
is, nevertheless, always an unavoidable
element of danger to passengers riding

measures are taken to prohibit people
riding, the manager wishes it to be
thoroughly understood that people rid

their own risk. The company assumes
no responsibility for any accidents
