DEATH IN A BUNCH OF BANANAS.
MIR. Shannon2s Fortunate Escape
from n Tarantula.

A large tarantula was found in q
bunch of bananas at the store of j. b.
Shannon on Salem avenue, Saturday
morning.
NJ. Shannon was filling an order for
Ntomer and was selecting dozen
bana. >from large bunch. The first
warning Vat he had of the deadly in
sect was from small boy who called
his attention to a large spider. Mr..
Shannon knew at once that the spider
was a tarantula whose bite means
horrible death and he jumped back
Just as the insect was about to alight
on his hand. 1t dropped to the side
walk and ran into crevice before 1t
could be killed. This is the second eX-
perience of the kind Mr.. Shannon has
had within five years.

A SURPRISING DISCOVERY.
Nearly $500 Accidentally Found by
Samuel Pc8rce.

Samuel Pearce, a drayman, while
moving an old cupboard at the home
Of Mrs. Harriet Raynor, made sur
prising but not unpleasant discovery.
He noticed something glitter when he
pulled the cupboard out and further
examination showed that it was
caused by a box of gold coins. On
counting the gold it was found that
there was $3.50. In another box was
a large amount of silver coins amount
ing to about $50. There was also pap
ers stating the source from which the
money came.
Mrs. Raynor knew nothing about
the money but thinks it was placed
there by Mr.. Raynor during his ill
pess.

SATURDAYS FIRE.

The barn of William Hicks, situated
between Archibald and Park streets,
was nearly entirely destroyed by fire
Saturday afternoon. Both companies
responded promptly to the alarm but
some delay was caused by the necessity
of the companies to joint their hose
in order to reach the building. They
succeeded in keeping the flames from
spreading to other buildings. The
barn contained a large quantity of ice,
some meat, boiler and engine and a
quantity of hay. Some of the neigh
bors succeeded in taking out some
wagons, pair of scales and other val
uables. The loss is partly covered by
insurance

When done Greater New York will

ingenuity and mechanical develop

compare with these cities for a minute.

Extraordinary Poker story Comes to
Port on the Columbia.

A poker story, soberly authenticated
and, MS all concerned admit, needing
so to be, came into this port yester-
day on the Hamburg Amerlcan steam

by the signatures Of the five players
themselves and that of witness but
nearly n quarter of the men on the
first cabin passenger list saw the hand
and are willing to stake their repnta-
tlons on the facts In the case And,
finally, Capt. Vogelgesang thought the
incident Of such importance that he
had limited edition Of the "declara-
tlon" OF the players struck OFF on the
ships printing press. In order that
copies of II might be put among the
archives Of the company The dcclar-
alton Is as follows:

A NEW BICYCLE COURT.
1t Was Opened Yesterday Under Mos
Favorable Auspices.


Favorable Auspices.
The new bicycle court of the Eclipse BIZ
cycle Company was opened yesterday and
last night for the inspection of visitors
This court is situated on Massachusetts
avenue between 18th and 18th streets north
west adjoining the Force School building
1t occupies a large area of ground, the cir
conference of which is about sixteen laps
to the mile. The court is to be used
as a riding school, where persons may
learn the use of the captious wheel under
the best conditions and circumstances. The
surface of the court is perfect for the pur-
pose designed. There are dressing rooms,
capable and polite instructors, and every
thing needful for the comfort of the
patrons. The court is under the direction
Of Manager Lasley and Mr.. c. Royce
Hough.
Over 1900 invitations were sent out for
the opening, and it is probable that num-
Der of people attended. The place was
thronged, and there was a steady stream
of visitors coming and going. A large
number Of incandescent electric lights
strung across the grounds made the scene
brilliant after dark last night. 1t is the
purpose of the management to supply suffi
cient light so that persons desiring to
learn to ride need not feel obliged to at
tend the court in the day. 1t is expected
that this will add to the patronage of the
court during the summer, when the nights
will be preferable to the warm days for
riding.
The visitors to the opening yesterday
polo, played between Messrs. H. T. Dodge
and l. J. Reed and NJ. Baker and e. W.
Breariy.. There was also trick riding by
Mr.. Baker and Mr.. Sam Howard.
