~ ID YOU EVER suffer from real
IL nervousness? When every nerve
seemed to culver with peculiar
IL creepy feeling, first in one place, ana
then another, and all seemed finally
to concentrate in a writhing tumble in the
brain, and you become irritable, fretful,
and pee wish; to be followed by an impotent,
weakened condition of the nerve centers,
ringing III the ears, palpitation OF the
heart, nunlbncss OF the eXtremities, q
cold feeling followed by a sense of faint
ness, and slcepless. Inisera BILE nights?

Butlerest got repetition of the storm
of July 10, and the persons who suffered
property loss on that occasion had the
same expression. The East End got its
hardest touch of the year. Telegraph
poles went down under the wind, fences
and outbuildings were destroyed and
large buildings suffered the loss of roofs
and windows.
Brushton and Williamsburg suffered
to considerable extent, but not so
badly as the districts nearer the river.
The Second avenue, Fifth avenue and
the hill districts got the full fury of the
storm, and the damage is general and
widespread. Windows, trees and small
structures were destroyed. Many
houses were unroofed, and it was re-
markable that there were not more
persons seriously injured, The tele-
graph and telephone systems of the two
cities were badly damaged. All the
police and fire alarm wires were wrecked
to greater or less extent, but by
hard work during the night, they have
been put in fair shape again.

MINERSDROWNED
Fifteen Believed to Have PeTiShed
in a Boarding House at
Cecil, Pa.
Seven Bodies Have Been RecOv-
cred The Others Still
Missing.
Water in Painters Run Raised
Twenty Feet in a Very
Short Time.

PITTsBURG, July 29.-During the
great storm clearinghouse near Cecil,
Washington county, was washed away,
and the occupants, 10 coal miners, were
drowned. The men were all foreigners
and their names could not be learned.
They were employed in the coal mines
of W. P Bend, near Mcdonald, Pa
The house stood on the banks of Paint
er's run, and about o'clock a. M, the
water rose rapidly and swept the struc-
ture from it's foundations, carrying it
down the stream There were 16 men
in the house sleeping, and, as far as
known, but one escaped with his life.
Five of the bodies of the unfortunates
were recovered during the morning at
various points about mile away from
where the house STOOD. The other 10
are believed to have perished. One of
the 16 was rescued while clinging to
tree. Another of the occupants of the
house was discovered clinging to the
boughs of tree three miles down the
stream. He was unconscious and died
few moments later.
A great deal of mining and oil prop
erty was damaged in the district along
the run The water rose in some places
to depth of 18 feet. The loss in the
district will amount to thousands of
dollars. AS all of the miners
in the house which was swept
away were foreigners and mostly Ital-
ians, it was impossible to learn their
names. Many narrow escapes are re-
ported from the valley through which
Painters run courses, and it is not un-
likely that some of the others may have
perished, although there is no further
rumored loss of life. Several houses in
the valley were swept away, but the
occupants so far as learned, all managed
to seek places of safety before their
homes were carried down the stream
Some of the occupants were rescued in
skiffs. The rigging in many oil wells
were swept away, and the men working
about them were compelled to flee for
their lives as the torrent bore down the
valley on its course of death and de-
struction.
The high water caused the boilers to
explode in the No. 4 mine of Colonel
W. P Rend, the Chicago operator The
boiler house was destroyed and consid-
cradle damage wrought, but no one was
hurt.

ALL ARE GUILTY
DR.. Jameson and His Associates
in the Famous Transvaal
Raid
Convicted of Violating the Terms
of the Foreign Enlistment Act
of Great Britain.
Jameson Sentenced to Fifteen
Months Without Labor.
Other Sentences.

| LONDON, July 29.-Before the lord
chief justice, Baron Russell of Kilowen,
Baron Pollock and Mr.. Justice Haw-
kins, in the queens bench division of
the high court of justice, the trial of
DR.. Jameson, Major Sir John Will
loughby, Colonel R. Grey, Colonel H. F.
White, Major r. White and Captain
Henry F. Coventry, charged with vio-
lation of the neutrality laws in invad-
ing the territory of the South African
republic was resumed. The court was
packed with people in anticipation of
the conclusion of this celebrated case.
Arguments having been concluded,
the chief justice began his summing up.
Lord Russel's remarks were distinctly
hostile to the defendants. He began by
pointing out the tone of the essential
facts in the case against the prisoners
had been contested and that there was
no doubt in regard to their having taken
part in or abetted the proceedings at
Pitsani and Mafeking, where the invad-
ing forces were mustered, prepara-
tory to entering the Transvaal
1t was entirely unlmportant, in
the opinion of Lord Russell, whether
the foreign enlistment act had been
proclaimed at the places named, in
1895. There was no doubt, he said,
that the expedition was of military
character, and whether it was aimed to
overthrow the Transvaal government or
to force change of the laws in the
republic, in the interests of others, it
was equally an expedition against
friendly state.
JamesoA Gets Fifteen Months,
Dr. Jameson was sentenced to 10
months Imprisonment without labor;
Major Sir John Willoughby was SEN
fenced to 10 months Imprisonment,
Major r. White to seven months and
Captain Henry F. Coventry, Colonel
R. Grey and Colonel H. E. White to
five months Imprisonment

Three meteorological records were

minutes beats all records in the bureau,
which extends back % years. From
4 80 to 4 :36 over third of an inch of
rain fell into the gauge on the roof of
the government building. The other
record broken was that a very cold
wave passed over the city during the
storm. The registering thermometer in
the weather bureau showed that in 45
minutes the temperature fell from 80 to
II degrees, and then went back to "a.
