story of the Battle.

The engagement began at 5:l5 a. m. and
ended at S:15 a. m. The enemy's batteries
were not silenced. The town in the rear
of the Notifications probably suffered. The
ships taking part in the action were the
Iowa, Indiana, New York, Terror, Am
phitrite, Detroit, Montgomery Wampa-
tuck and Porter. The enemy's firing was
heavy but wild, and the Iowa and New
York were probably the only ships hit.
They went right up under the guns In col
umn, delivering broadsdes, and then re-
turned. The line passed thrice in front OF
the forts. pouring tons of steel ON shore.

At 7:45 a. m. Admiral Sampson signaled
Cease firing" Retire" was sounded on
the Iowa, and she headed from the shore.
The Terror was the last ship in the line,
and, failing to see the signal, banged away
alone for about half an hour, the concert
of shore guns roaring at her and the water
flying high around her from the exploded
shells. But she possessed a charmed life
and reluctantly retired at 8:15.

A New Terror For Tutors.

Dueling has shown a new develop
ment in Germany. The university stu
dent is no longer content with distgur-
ing the noses, ohins and cheeks of his
friends to avenge supposed insults or
with gaining the glory of scaritioatlon
himself. He aspires to greater enter
prises and is determined no longer to
stand the tyranny of his professors and
examiners. The president of the Berlin
university had the misfortune the other
day to pillow student in an examination
for the twelfth time. This candidate for
academic honors resolved no longer to
tolerate such repeated insults, and forth
with sent the president challenge by
fellow student. The president, however,
refused to comply with the polite re-
quest of pistols for two and coffee for
one, or of swords and holsters in the
park in the early morning. But he has
not sent the bloodthirsty undergraduate
for change in the country, as he might
well have done. The students of Berlin
have dubbed the professor a coward.
But the German press thinks that his
decision not to accept the challenge is,
on the whole, justified. They argue 1T
would never do for the undergraduate
at university TO be able to appeal to
arms if plowed in an examination. And
there is certainly something from the
professors side to be said for this view.

Ferguson's Theatre To-nigl,t.

John Mason and Marion Manola are always
sure of hearty welcome and crowded
house wherever they visit, and the
mere announcement that they are to appear
here this evening at Ferguson's theatre in
their best and strongest play, Friend Fritz"
will be all that is necessary to bring out their
legion of friends and admirers As now pro-
duced Friend Fritz" takes on more pas
toral tone than it has hitherto done. All of
the scenery is new and handsome, and the
costumes more quaint and picturesque than
ever. Jack" Mason is as jolly bachelor
and as vigorous and tender lover as of
yore. He sings his songs with spirit, and is
said to be as mirth- provoking by his quiet
humor as ever Mrs. Mason is said to i'm
personate Suzel with all of her old time
daintiness and spirit, and to look the picture
of health and youth Those who remember
her recitations of 'Rebecca at the Well" in
the second act can never forget her charming
manner and the occurrences and naiyette
which she so cleverly intermingles in her
talk with the Rabbi concerning the applica-
tion of the biblical story. Friend Fritz
may be "A roll of rhymes" "a toll of
chimes, but it is pretty and pure, its melo-
dies are quaint, its dances dainty, and its
humor quet and constant. This will be the
Masons' last appearance in Friend Fritz"
as they have a new play in rehearsal for an
early production.

WAS THERE
FOUL PLAY ?
Mysterious Disappearance of Man
From Ashland.
WAS LAST SEEN In THIS TOWN !
Came Here After Drawing His Pay at the
Maple Hill Uolliery-The Story Told
By the Companion of the
Missing Man.
WAS LAST SEEN IN THIS TOWN

Paddy" Reese, of Ashland, is missing and
his family fears that he has either met with
foul play, or that he wandered on the noun
tain range between this town and ashland
on Saturday and was lost in the snow storm.
Reese left his home on Friday last and, in
company with Thomas Simpson, also of Ash
land, went to the Maple Hill colliery aud
collected his pay.
After Reese received his money at the col
lery he and Simpson walked to this town
and had drinks at several places, eventually
drifting into the saloon of George Sockaloski,
on West Coal street.
Simpson says he was obliged to temporarily
leave the saloon. When he returned he
found Reese had disappeared, and since that
time nothing has been heard from Reese.
Simpson returned to his home at Ashland and
told his story.
Yesterday afternoon Reese's wife and
daughter were in town and made fruitless
search for the missing husband and father.
Detectives Amour, of town. and Bobb, OF
MahanOy Plane, are now engaged in trying
to locate the missing man. Reese is described
as being about 30 years Of age, feet 81 inches
high has a short, black moustache, and when
last seen wore dark suit of clothes.
The case has excited considerable interest
since the details have been made known and
no doubt the Search for the missing man will
become a vigorous one. A severe storm
ragged on Friday night and this, coupled with
the fact that Reese was considerably intO1i.
Gated wheu last seen, weakens the theory oi
some that the man was victim of foul play
Developments in the case are anxiousIy
awaited by the family

ANOTHER PROPERTY DEAL
The scheifiy Property Transferred to
Kichard Il. Gill.

A deal was consummated yesterday by
which the Scheiny property ON North Main
street passes into the hands of Richard F.
Gill, the dry goods merchant now located at
the northwestern corner Of Main and Lloyd
streets The deal was pending for several
weeks aud rumors of the transfer were fre-
quently floated, but it was not until late
yesterday afternoon that Mr.. Gill received
from j. X. p Scheihy of Wilmington, Del,
the papers that closed the negotiations finally.
The price paid was $4,000.
With the transfer of the property the old
Scheify House, which has been in existence
as hotel for thirty years or more and was
one of the landmarks of the town, into a
stage which will ultimately result in wiping
out its ideutity as hotel property. Peter
Breen, the present tenant, will vacate it by
February 1st, next, and then Mr.. Gill will
begin transforming the place into dry goods
and notion store. The front of the building
will be remodelled and much of the interior
will be changed. The main apartment on
the ground floor is now only 30 feet deep.
By tearing out the partitions and lowering
the floor at the rear Mr.. Gill will have a
main room for his business extending back
from rs to 80 feet As the alterations and
improvements will be extensive Mr.. Gill can
not say when he will be able to move into his
newly acquired property and vacate that
which he now occupies. The work will take
several weeks.
AS an investment Mr.. Gill considers he has
made good deal in purchasing the property.
Several years ago J. X. p. Scheifly refused
an offer of $4,000 and held the property at
$4,000. After that time a dwelling with

WHAT STATE HOPES TO PROVE

Camden n. j., Jan. Ali Shaw, in
dicted for the murder of his mother
and grandmother. was placed on trial
for his life yesterday before Judges
Garrison and Armstrong in the Camden
county court. The crime was commit
ted on oct. y last, when Mrs. Eliza
beth Zane, the grandmother, and Mrs.
Shaw, the mother, We're found in sep
arate rooms of their home, PAP Line
street, with bullet wounds in their
heads. The former was dead and the
mother died soon after without re-
gaining consciousness. When the po-
lice arrived, attracted by young Shaw S
cries, the latter told them a story of
how the women met their fate. He
said he had been awakened by a noise,
and going down to the second floor met
his mother. She told him burglars were
in the house. Shaw looking ahead said
he saw the crouching form of man
in the back room. He started forward,
when his mother pushed him to one
side and went ahead. a shot followed
and he saw his mother fall. He then
ran to the front of the house and gave
the alarm.
Shaw's story created great excite
ises showed that the house had appar-
emily been forcibly entered from the
rear. Suspicion, however fell upon
Shaw, and three days later he was ar
rested charged with the crime OF double
murder. The commonwealth elected to
try him first on the charge of murder
ing his grandmother, and it was on
that indictment he was arraigned yes
terday. Shaw appeared none the worse
for his confinement in Jail, and seemed
cool and collected when brought into
court.
After the selection of a jury a recess
was taken, and on reassembling Will
lam H Corson, assistant prosecutor,
opened the case by stating to the jury
that the commonwealth expected to
prove that the only persons in the
house on the day of the murder were
Eli Shaw, Mrs Shaw and Mrs. Zane,
and that the prisoner killed them.
| Shaw's motive for the alleged muir
| ders is said to have been to secure sew
| eral thousand dollars with which to be-
| gin housekeeping.
County Physician Jones, Coroner Lip
| pincott, Policeman Steen and Others
testified the intention of the vidence
| produced being to show that the win
/ dow fastenings had been arranged from
the inside to give an appearance OF
| having been forced from the outside.
