The Perennial Pea.


The vine Of the perennial pea grows
much taller and thriftier than that of the
sweet pea, and it can be used in many
places where a low trailer would be use
less, aud after 1t Is once established it
minds neither the northern winter nor the
southern sun. Those of US who live where
the summers ere long and dry know that
the sweet pea is apt to die away before
the summer is half gone, unless special
care is taken to keep it well watered and
the seed pods all picked off Even then
they sometimes succumh to the fierce heat
so foreign to their nature. Rut well-rooted
plants of the perennial pea, whose long,
large roots penetrate to- the cool, moist
sutsoil below, stand ani-ordinary drought
With inpunity, and are tn constant bloom
from early in the season. until the coming
of autumn. - ~
Last summer I had not vine that gave
me more pleasure than my perennial peas.
trained up to my sittingGroottl windows, so
that the friendly blossoms gould nod their
pretty heads at me eachatimA that looked
their way. The flowers are larger and
roundsr than those Of the sweet pea, and
the colors are soft and clear. Three to
eight blooms are borne III compact clusters
at the end of the long faweF stalks, MAX

are white, pale and DEEP rose, scarlet and
yellow. The last two Shades are as yet
extremely rare. ALI the colors are de-
s1rable but the white Is perhaps the most
useIul OF all, as 1t is so fine for cutting.

train came down from Philadelphia with an
emergency corps composed OF Philadelphia
surgeons who turned in with sleeves rolled
UP. About thirty came down, and these,
with Atlantic City's own corps formed an
adequate medical and surgical force. There
was nothing left undone TO alleviate the
awful agony Of the racked and torn people
IN the hospitals, but liz many cases all aid
failed, for fourteen died in the San!tarium
alone, after having been brought there.
The work of identification was carried on
as rapidly as possible. Stray hats and
gloves and articles of clothing were ar
ranged in rows in the coroners office.
Engfneer's Wife Drops Dead.
When Mrs Edward Farrer, wife OF the
Reading railroad engineer, who found
dead with his hand on the troItle, in
formed of his death last night she threw
up her hands and dropped ON the floor dead.
She uttered no sound or word, but fell
like a log, and she Will lie beside her hus-
band today in the undertakers rooms.
Were the Trains RACING:
Engineer Kriner of the West Jersey
Pennsylvania) train when asked for
statement of the accident said that as he
approached the crossing he saw the Read
ing train approaching from the opposite
direction. A Camden and Atlantic train
was also coming toward Atlantic city, and
1t seemed to him that both trains were
were open for him to go on, and knowing
that If such be the case the block
must be against the Reading train, he eX-
pected the latter to stop. Before he realiz-
ed 1t he saw collision was inevitable, and
he was about to jump at the point where
the Reading engine low lies, but he took
desperate chance and stuck to his post. He
did not know where the fault lay, but
claimed the signals We're in his favor.
Scene of the Disaster.
Three lines of railroad connect Atlantic
City with Philadelphia and Intervening
roads in the state of New Jersey. They
are the Atlantic City railroad, controlled
by the Philadelphia and Reading railroad.
and the Camden and Atlantic and West
Jersey railroads, both controlled by the
Pennsylvania railroad. Crossing the seven
miles of meadow between Atlantic City
and Absecon the rails of these roads run
almost side by side, and cross at a point
less than two miles beyond the dra wbridge
which spans the water that connects the
Atlantic ocean with Great Egg Harbor bay.
The one point of intersection is marked by
a signal tower There the West Jersey
track crosses the Reading line at almost
right angles, and up to a short distance
of that point the Camden and Atlantic rails
run parallel with those of the West Jersey
system, and then branch off TO the right
without crossing the Reading tracks. This
was the scene of the accident.

FIGHTING THE BUGS.

The Means by Which They Can he
Kept Out of House or Killed in 1t.
From the Kansas City Star.
Among the most contumacious and an
noying of spring visitors that confront the
housekeepers are the reaches, or water
bugs who appear without solicitation, and
pitch their tents wherever water is con-
stanty kept. They breed with prodigious
rapidty, and. unless exterminated or driven
off, will soon take possession of the whole
house. Prevention in this case is infinitely
better than cure. Powdered borax or Per-
sian powder should be sprinkled around the
spots that they would like to call their
own, and at least twice week boiling wa
ter should be poured down sinks. closets
and drains. Hellebore rubbed over with
molasses and put around their haunts IS
also considered specific.
Still more persistent regarding entrance,
and still harder to put to flight once in, are
those evilly disposed creatures whose very
name sends chills up and. down the house

They are exceedingly partial to some
kinds of wood and are not infrequently

eternal vigilance are the only safeguards.
All beds and bedding should be examined
al least once week in summer. and If any
traces of interlopers are seen the bed must
be taken. apart and thoroughly scrubbed
with cold water and soap. This is the only
way to destroy the eggs which are depos-
tied in every crack and crerice. and unless
this is done the bugs VIII continue to in

STORM At NEW YORK.
The Arch i'm Washington Square
Struck by Lightning.

The intense heat yesterday at New York
was broken about O'Clock yesterday after
noon by a thunder storm, accompanied by
heavy rain and hard wind.
The Memorial Arch on Washington Square
was struck by lightning. and the big marble
blocks, weighing several tons each which
form the southwestern section of the cap
stone of the arch were forced from their
positions. Although none of the masonry
fell. the block struck was moved six inches
The arch is in an unsafe condition, and the
police stopped all traffic through II. Several
people had taken refuge from the storm be-
meath the arch and Of these three were
Frustrated by the electric shock All, how
ever, soon revived and were able TO go 10
their homes
Lightning struck an electric wire of the
Sd avenue trolley line in Brooklyn. and
Mary O'Connor aged seven, a passenger,
received serious injuries. A hole was burned
into her head, and the hair around the
wound was burned away.

A RICH FIND AT SEA,
Wrecked Vessel and Cargo Worth
Over $1OO,OOO.

Wrecked Vessel and Cargo Worth
Over $1OO,OOO.
From the New York World.
The iron derelict bark Janet Court, which
was abandoned early in March, was towed
into port in the Erie basin Friday. She was
picked up by the Innerly between Hattaras
and Bermuda, and is a rich find for the
crew of that vessel She has a valuable
cargo Of nitrate of soda, amounting proba-
bly, to 1000 tons. 1t is said to be worth $50
ton, and the sailors stand a good chance
of recovering sixty per cent of ship and
cargo. The hull will probably bring $1,000
at auction for a coal barge, as the Janet
Court is too old to reft as a sailing vessel.
The vessel sighted Sandy Hook in March
and was caught in the severe gales then
prevailing and blown out to sea. Her masts
were finally snapped off in a squall and the
dismasted vessel drifted around at the
mercy Of the waves for several days. A
Harrison line steamer of Liverpool was
hailed at last and took off the crew.
1t is fortunate that she was picked Up so
soon, for she was very dangerous derelict.
Her hull Is tight, and there was no water
in the well when found. The stanch hull
would probably have fioated long time,
and would have been liable to do much
damage
