KIondII,n Vessel Wrnnknd.

LYNN Mass. Sept. 24.-An explosion
of naphtha occurred on board the
schooner Abbie NJ. Deering. anchored in
the harbor late yesterday afternoon.
The vessel is almost a complete wreck.
One man was badly hurt. The vessel
was purchased In Gloucester recently
and was being fitted out for a Klondlke
expedition. A quantity Of naphtha had
been placed in the hold and was used
TO destroy vermin. 1t is supposed the
stove in the galley ignited the gas form
ed by the fluid, and a loud explosion
was caused. The forward bulkhead had
been ripped up, and the deck was torn
up nearly its entire length and 1t is
thought the hull was injured. 1t Will
cost several thousand dollars 20 repair
the vessel.

The state Land Omce.

Hon. Sydney II. Epes, Register OF the
State Land Office, who has resigned TO
take his seat in the F'ifty-second Congress,
has proved highly efficient and e1ceed>
ingly popular officer.
During his incumbency great improve
ments have been made in the conduct and
appointments Of the office.
The removal OF the records 10 more
commodious rooms In the southwest corner
of the basement of the Capitol, and their
regular arrangement in convenient cases
have increased greatly the facility in con-
sulting them. The patent and other books
have also been rebound. This was great
ly needed, as many Of the books were fall
ing to pieces for the want OF 1t. These
muniments OF history are of inestimable
value. They have, indeed, the distinction
OF being the earliest in point OF date and
most perfectly continuous OF the records or
anv state of our Union. The reference TO
tnenn by persons in various walks OF life
daily increases They are consulted con-
stantIy by the historian. the lawyer. the
genealogist, and the man or woman or
society who wishes TO figure more In
charmed circles.
Whilst the brick vault-rooms I'm which
are these records may secure them from
destruction in the case OF fire, which may
Justly be apprehended. IL is suggested that
il would be a wise precaution TO guard
against any chance OF their destruction by
making the rooms In which they are
Thoroughly freproof with granolithic
floors and iron-cased doors and windows.
An effort was made 90 obtain an appro-
priation for this purpose from the last
Legislature, but only provision for re-
nairing the books was allowed.

The New York Mail and Express, one
of the staunchest Republican papers In
the country, thinks that 1t Is more than
probable that the General has resigned
the consulshp at Habana, and says:
There Is one act by which the incom-
ing administration may command the IN
slant, eager, and unqualified support OF
the whole people.
let President Mckinley reappoint
General Lee 10 the Habana Consulate,
and support him in that position with all
the authority that may be necessary 70
give full force and effect to his efforts In
behalf Of American citizens, American
rights and American interests"
This is very complimentary 10 General
Lee, but the Mail and Express evidently
does not know General Lee. IL says.
further: General Lee is just the man for
President Mckinley TO keep in Habana.
He is fearless, able honest, and patriotic,
and by this time he fully knows the
Spanish character. II ne comes home let
US send him back TO Cuba, accompanied.
II need be. by fleet OF sunboats to sup
port his demand for the protection OF
every American citizen upon the island"
This programme would suit thousands
OF people. irrespective OF party, through
out the United States. but what viii the
General think about It Is the question.
