Three Hotels Burned and the
Whole Bowery in Danger
Still Raging.

CONEY ISLAND. May 16, 1884 fire
which threatened to destroy several
blocks in the most thickly populated Sec
ton of Coney Island started shortly after
ten o'clock this morning.
The flames broke out in Feltman's dane
ing Pavilion, and quickly spread to the
adjoining buildings.
Some of these are the largest hotels on
the island. The fire department quickly
responded, but the fire had gained too
much of a Roadway in the finder like
buildings for them to be able to cope
with it.
The large pavilion was soon a mass of
flames and the fire had leaped to and
begun to consume the adjoining buildings.
The fireboat Body Joined the firemen
in their efforts to stop the progress OF
the flames, but to little advantage. A call
for aid was sent to the firemen of Sleeps
head Bay, Parkville, -Bensonhurst, Bath
Beach and Brooklyn. A number of en-
gines and hose companies hurried to the
scene of the blaze.
The fire burned fiercely, and the efforts
to prevent it spreading further had met
no success. The entire block was threat
ened.
BY ha1f-past eleven O'Brien's Hotel. the
ST. Nicholas Hotel. S~tubenbord's Hotel
and fifteen mall frame structures hao
been destroyed.
At n:40 the flames crossed. Surf avenue
and caught in the other block, which they
threatened with destruction.
Several engines of the Brooklyn 1lre
department arrived at noon and began
throwing streams oil the flames. ;.

TEST YOUR DIAMONDS.

A Mr.. Margott, a chemist at the
Physical Institute. at Geneva, claims to
have discovered an unfailing test by
which the genuine from spurious la
monds can be instantly detected. The
strumen employed is a aluminium
pencil, with which it is possible to make
a mark or write on any glass, or any
other substance that contains any por-
poration of the silicates. Upon, such
substances. when first moistened, the
aluminium pencil will leave a white
mark which, it is said, can not be de-
stroyed even by the use of chemicals.
ON genuine diamonds. consisting of
pure carbon, the pencil makes no i'm

A VALUABLE DREAM.

One night the past Winter a member
of a lumber crew at work in the woods
north of Fort Kent dreamed that he was
using a saw. the teeth of which We're of
a peculiar shape. The dream made such
an impression on him that as soon as
possible he procured a. saw and had
teeth cut like those seen in his dream.
To the great surprise of the dreamer
as well as those who have seen it in
operation, the saw is of great practi-
cal value and it is asserted that in the
same length of time one man can saw
more wood with it than can three men
using ordinary saws. One of Fort
Kent's wealthy citizens has interested
himself in this new invention, and is
said to be procuring q patent for the
ion Of placing the saws on the market
as soon as posible.-Aroostook Repub-
lean.

time members of the families met there

arose over a ~pitchfork, possessed by
Littmann, which the Diehls claimed was
theirs.
LITTMANN ASSAULTED.

through Dales avenue. me the Diehls
and there was a fight. Littmann was
knocked down and struck on he head

GRAND JURY IN EARNEST.
Republicans Trying to Staye OF I'm

TRENTON, May 16, 1S95.-The Mercer
Grand Jury, who were charged Tuesday
to examine into all the facts brought out
against State officials by the Senatorial
investigators, were in session yesterday
and the presence of several former en-
ployes of the State House among the
witnesses has almost settled the gem
eral discussion that the derelict officials
will be indicted.
One witness admitted that he did not
know what he was there for unless it
was to- give evidence about the State
House frauds, and as he has furnished
the committee with considerable infor-
nation. the inference made is thought
to be a correct one. The friends of the
officials who are likely to be indicted
have been pulling wires to get
the Republican leaders of Mercer TO
have the Grand Jury postpone the con-
sideration of the State House jobbery
and stealings.
The Grand Jurors understand that SUI
preme Court Justice Gummere is in earn

Are Eng1ishmen G1nttonsq

Are Englishmen gluttons? The ques- tion is suggested by a paper at the In- ternational Geographical Congress by General Armenkoff. From a table showing the consumption of the prin- cipal articles of food per head for the various European countries, it appears that we stand far above all nations as consumers of meat, sugar and salt The Hollanders drink almost three times as much tea and coffee, and con- sune only half as much sugar; the French consume only half as much salt. It may be that we owe our na- tional greatness to these facts; but it is certain that by comparison with oth- CT countries our working classes are over-fed.' In comparison with Russia, we must confess to be wallowing in plenty; yet we are not content. The consumption of food of prime necessity is four times greater here than in Rus sia; and while we can comfort ourselves with ninety-one pounds of tea and cof- fee, the poor Russ has to be content with six pounds. How can nations ex- pect to live in amity while some are well fed and others half starving ?-The Realm.
