the Norwich line, Captain Ward. had a
long to be remembered unpleasant ex-
perience at an early hour this morning
on account of the steamer running
hard upon Corrorant reef, two miles
off this harbor. during the fog. The
accident proved so serious that it was
necessary to put back and beach the
boat just above the Pequot house. A
panic ensued among the passengers,
but the perfect discipline of the crew,
as well as the fact that the City of Lo-
well. sister ship, returning from New
York, locMed up as the boat was
beached, helped to allay their fears.
No casualties resulted.

4 WILD Spanish STORY.
Madrid Paper Publishes Details Of
aSpanish Victory.
A GREAT MYTHICAL BATTLE.
Cervers Said to Have Given Combat to
SampsOn-TwO American Varships
Said to Have Been Destroyed and the
American Fleet Vanquished.

MADRID, May 31.-El Progresso pub
fishes dispatches purporting to come
from Paris, giving details of an al
legged battle near Jamaica, in which, it
is said, two American warships were
destroyed and one Spanish warship
was injured.
The story is that Commodore Schley's
squadron parted from Rear Admiral
Simpsons off the eastern point Of
Cuba, steered toward the Yucatan Pc
ninsula, followed closely by SIMPSONS
, ships. Both were sighted from the
watch towers of Jantiago de Cuba.
Rear Admiral Sampson arrived off
the province of Puerto Principe, con-
tinuing in the direction of Jamaica.
Admiral Cervera left Santiago Thurs
day, May &c, at midnight, all his lights
being extinguished, with the Vizcaya
and the Almirante Oquendo, preceded
by the Torpedo boat destroyer Furor.
He took up position in proximity to
Jamaica. Two hours later the remain
der of Admiral Cervera's squadron
withdrew from the harbor of Santiago
and proceeded in scutherly direction.
On the morning of Friday the Furor
came up rapidly to the Vizcaya and
the Allnirante, advising Admiral Ger
Rear Admiral Simpsons ships steamed
with full steam toward the Spanish
vessels, but moved in a southerly di
rection to effect juncture with the
remainder of the Spanish squadron.
Presently the battle ragged furiously
on both sides. The Americans de-
tached three cruisers and three smaller
ships to surround the Vizcaya and the
AlInirante CquenGo. The Furor, be-
tween the cross-.ire of the enemy,
made for the American flagship. not
withstanding the fire of the heavy
guns.
The outcome of the contest was that
two American warships We're sunk and
one Spanish warship disabled in it's
steering gear. The remaining vessels
of the American squadron were SO
much damaged that they were COM
PEELED to take refuge in Haytien
waters. It is reported that the Cristo-
Dol Colon captured one American ship,
which had been disabled from shot
by the Vizcaya that perforated her
side.
The Vizcaya rislled destruction from
an American destroyer. 1t is believed
that after the combat the Spaniards
sailed for Havana, or, if the conditions
of the vessels Or the presence of su-
perior force of the enemy required,
took refuge at Cardenas or Matanzas.
The publication of this dispatch from
Paris caused an excited discussion of
the conflicting reports from various
sources, which completely absorbed all
sections of the press and all circles of
the public in Madrid
WASHINGTON, May 3O.-Officials of
the navy department not only discredit
the reports of a naval engagement near
Jamaica on Friday. but declare with
the utmost pcsitiveness that it did not
occur. Advices from Admiral Samp-
son and Commodore Schley clearly in
dictate that the statements contained
in the Madrid story are without the
slightest foundation in fact.

President Faure on tho War.

PARIS, May BIN. Faure, at the un-
yelling of the monument to the COM
batants of 1870, at st. Etienne, yester-
day, referred, in the course of his
speech, to the Hispano-American war,
expressing his regrets that the efforts
of France and the other powers had
failed to prevent a conflict. The pres
ident declared that France was re-
solved to maintain the strictest neu-
trality, and he said he earnestly hoped
that the efforts of the neutral powers
would succeed in restoring peace.

A GREAT REMEDY.

The loss Of the hair Is one Of the most
serious losses a woman can undergo.
Beautiful hair gives many woman a
claim to beauty which would be utterly
wanting if the locks were short and
scanty. 1t is almost serious a loss when
the natural hue Of the hair begins to fade.
and the shining tresses of chestnut and
auburn are changed to gray or to a faded
shadow of their former brightness. Such
a loss is no longer a necessity. There is
one remedy which may we'll be called a
great remedy by reason of its great sue
cess in stopping the falling of the hair,
cleansing the scalp of dandruff, and re-
storing the lost color to gray or faded
tresses. DIR. Ayers Hair vigor is stand
ard and reliable preparation, in use in
thousands of homes. and recommended by
everyone who has tested it and expert
enced the remarkable results that follow
its use. It makes hair grow. 1t restores

gray or faded out. It stops hair from fall

Fight of Oryx and Lion.

Mid Africa and East Africa. climate
excepted, are still the sportsman's par
adise. In Somaliland and German
of wild antelopes. And here occurred
the thrilling fight between an oryx and
lion which a returned traveller thus
describes: THE oryx-spie zbock, the
Beers call him-is a graceful antelope
with extremely long, slender, sharp
hords. He is not much afraid of any
of his forest neighbors for six reasons.
Four of these are his legs; two are his
horns. African hunters have often seen
antelopes grazing in full sight of a lion
and making no effort to get away,
knowing that their flight would be
swifter than the lions charge. Unless
the lion can catch an antelope at the
outset he must seek another dinner.
1t is a contest of quickness rather than
strength. l once by rare chance saw
a lion in the very act of leaping upon a
superb male oryx. The animal was
grazing quietly near the edge of the
yeldt and the lion had crept ZIP unseen.
In the very moment that the lion
sprang the oryx saw him. 1t was too
late to run. But like flash the oryx
turned his nose to the ground and
threw his mighty horns forward. The
lion fell fairly upon their sharp and
slender tips.- In moment the slender
body Of the oryx was crushed to the
ground. but the lion fell with him. the
horns of the plucky animal driven
clear through the brute's body as you
might skewer bit of meat. They died
together. When ran up l found the
lion bleeding to death the oryx dead
his neck broken by the fall. I have
his head mounted, the horns still red
dened from their passage through the
huge body Of the murderous cat. l
have never seen a beast die more
brsvely."
