Flood Alarm.

The effect of the recent thaw and
rain occasioned considerable alarm at
Johnstown and elsewhere. 1t is only
necessary to mention Conemaugh in
connection with Johnstown to revive
the saddest memories of the past and
the most terrible flood disasters within
our knowledge. Report from Johns
town, dated the 9th inst. says:
The thaw of ice and snow which set
in last night as result of the warm
rain, which continued all day to-day
and promises to last all of to night,
has resulted in considerable damage
to property. One cigar dealer, Her
man Williams, is loser to the extent
OF $500, the Herald company book
bindery has been seriously flooded and
scores of residences and business
houses more or less damaged by
water as result of frozen up water
spouts. The damage reported is so
serious to day that the police were
sent out all over the business places
OF The city to warn merchants and
Others to clear the ice from their
buildings.
A more threatening danger tonight,
however, is the rapid rise of the river.
The great snow of a few days ago is
melting on the mountains and rein
forced by the heavy fall Of rain is
swelling the Conemaugh and Stoney
Creek. There is an additional danger
OF gorge of ice at the Pennsylvania
stone bridge. There is considerable
alarm tonight on that account. In
any event unless the heavy rainfall
ceases in few hours and a cold spell
comes, another food such as was ex
perlenced last spring seems inevitable

MINERS. . DESTITUTE.
Dullness in the Coal Trade Causes Good
Deal Of Suffering Among the Employees.

The dullness of the coal trade the
past six months has caused a great
deal of suffering among those who are
dependent upon the mines for a
livelihood. The families of a number
of miners employed by coal com.
pany in Kingston are said to be on
the verge Of starvation. The miners
are obliged to stay in the mines from
7 in the morning until S In the even
ing for one car.
A committee called on the superin-
tendent and told him pitiful and sad
story of their condition, stating that
in the present working of the mine
they are unable to make living, and
are badly in need of food The
superintendent promised to look into
the matter. Many families have to
keep their children home from school
because they cannot afford to buy
them shoes. Some miners have not
tasted meat for weeks.

Electrocuted in Mid-Air.

Frank Murphy, aged a7, was almost
instantly killed recently in the Phils-
delphia depot. He started to climb
long iron ladder leading from the
ground to the roof to see the foreman
about securing work, but lost his
footing and threw out his hands to
save himself. In so doing he grasped
live electric wire. He held on to
the wire with both hands for several
moments and then fell to the ground.
He was dead when the employees
reached his side. The mans hands
were still smoking and the flesh was
burned away clean to the bone.

Still Another Death From Electro
cuticn.


Harry Schaeffer, young silk wea.
yer, of Camden, N. J., was walking
along the street on the evening of the
9th inst, and stepping upon a broken
electric light wire that was trailing up
on the pavement the whole current
passed through him. As he fell COM
pletely paralyzed he exclaimed, "My
God, won't somebody lift me up" In
falling he was thrown upon a mass of
broken wires that had been left in the
street since the storm, and his feet
remained across the live wire; his
body completing the circuit the cur
rent continued to pass through him
into the heap Of wire. Though a
crowd gathered and witnessed the
horrible scene, no one dared go to
the poor mans assistance. AS the
current passed through the body it
distorted the features into horrible
grimaces and the terror stricken spec
tators were uncertain whether the
man was alive or dead. After several
hours delay the current was finally
turned off and the body was picked
up. The first shock undoubtedly
killed tine man and he felt no pain
after he fell to the pavement. The
soles of his shoes were burned through
and his face, where it had rested
against the wires, was burned to the
bone.

money boxes. They are set up, says
the New York Herald, with infinite
pains; built piece by piece until they
arrive at their finished state. They are
fitted, tested and experimental with
until found perfect. Then, with as
great pains, they are dismembered and
carried in sections to the point of des-
tination, where they are again set up
for final use.
OF course it would be more econom-
ical for the safemakers to transport the
vaults entire-if they could-after they
are first set up. The difficulty natural
ly rests in the great weight of the struc-
lures. Even in it's dismembered form,
it will be difficult matter to transfer
the fragments of the clearing house
vault from the mandatory, at South
and Governor streets, to its destina-
ton in Cedar street, near Broadway.
There are six doors, for instance.
Three of them are estimated to weigh
16,s00 pounds apiece. The other three
are trifies, and weigh scarcely more
than 1900 pounds each. There are
other portions proportionately heavy,
as may be inferred from the fact that
the total weight of the vault is about
81, 400 pounds. Its total dimensions
are "a feet inches wide, IS feet 1917
inches deep and II feet 81 inches in
height. 1t is divided into three equal
compartments.
Under the old methods of construc-
ton bank vault rested upon founda-
ton of stone and concrete, six or eight
feet in thickness, to guard against tun-
neling. Not so with the vaults of to-
day. The immense structure for the
clearing house will rest on piers and
arches of masonry. This will afford
free access for the watchmen to pass
beneath the vault and inspect it from
below as well as on either side. This
method, it is believed, will afford
greater protection than if the steel
room rested upon solid earth or ma
sonry.
