boat Vixen, formerly the yacht Joseph

Philadelphia, and of Commander J. G..
Eaton, OF the Resolute, with the New

FIRE AND FLOOD
STORE AND POST OFFICE BURNED
AT STILL POND, KENT COUNTY.
OTHER STORM DAMAGES.

Chestertown, Md, July 29.-The
large general store or f. H. Harper &
Son, Still Pond, and the post Office
were destroyed by fire yesterday.
The establishment was cine or the
largest stores i'm Kent county. The
building had recently beenl remodeled
and enlarged, and the firm carried about
$4,000 stock. The fire was first dis
covered in small room in which gum
powder and other coarse merchandise
are kept. The flames had made such
headway when discovered that only a
small portion Of the stock could be
sawed.
Still Pond has NO protection against
fire, except the town pumps and the
bucket brigades, which proved TOTALLY
ineffective in doing more than check
ing the spread OF the flames to other
property in the village.
The post Office kept by Thomas e.
Norris, Joined the store building and
soon caught and was destroyed, though
mrch OF the mail matter and furniture
were saved. 1t was with difficulty that
the handsome remode.ed residence OF
JOSEPH w. Harper, Jr., across this
street, was saved.
SulA Pond is a village OF about 500
inhabitants, but is one OF the most
active business centres of Kent coun-
ty. This is the MOST costly fire in its
history. The loss is difficult to esti-
mate. The insurance is $4,000, in the
Kent Mutual Insurance Company, oi
which Mr.. Harper is a director. and
some in Out-of-town companies. Frank
H. Harper is chief judge OF THE Or
phans' Court and one Of the wealth.

NARROW ESCAPE OF 20 TRAMPs

AuhAA WNAANDNTANn@INo WEuNI in n
BOX CAR AND JUST ESCAPED
BY A CARS LENGTH FROM
DEATH.
The wreck at Ell0ton yesterday was
the worst freight wreck for years on
the Maryland division OF the p, w. &
B. railroad. 1t occurred just in front
OF the Eikton passenger station.
Extra 131, north-bound through
freight, Conductor John Morgan in
charge, was running at high rate of
speed, when ten loaded box cars were
derailed, some Of which were broken
into kindling wood, while others were
telescoped and thrown lengthwise
across both north and southIbound
tracks. The platform and fences
along the tracks were demolished,
electric light wires broken and poles
knocked down by the cars as they went
crashing along the ties. The tracks
were torn UP and badly twisted out OF
shape and the roadbed plowed up for
a considerable distance.
Several narrow escapes were made by
.passeng gers in waiting for the arrival OF
the south-bound train, due at 1898, as
the ballast from the road-bed was
hurled with great force in the air, one
large stone striking THE agent, i. j.
FNnnhn, on the head. Mr.. Finnan
threw himself to the floor OF the plat
form to save himself. One OF the
wrecked cars went crashing into this
residence Of Benjamin NJ. Wells, OF the
Adams Express Company, tearing
Away the fence around his building
and knocking down portion OF the
front porch.
Three wreclzing crews, from Balti-
more, Perryville and Wilmington, were
soon on the scene, and after six hours
hard work the south-bound track was
cleared Of the debris and travel re-
sumed. The north-bound track waE
several hours afterwards placed in con,
dition for travel.
The wreck was caused by the break,
ing OF an arch bar, which fell between
