Chester. Sept. 29.-The sloop yacht
Nanon was badly damaged yesterday
off the wharf Of the Philadelphia Yacht
Club by the explosion Of gasoline
stove, and Captain johnson, who was
alone on the yacht, was badly burned
about the head and face. The accident
happened while Captain Johnson was
preparing to cook his dinner, and the
explosion must have taken place as ne
was bending over the stove. Captain
Johnson was hurled to the floor of the
galley. and when he was able to IN
spect the yacht he found that the furnl-
ture had been tossed about and broken
and the rich upholstery torn into
strips. The deck was sprung and tht
framework of the inside finishing lifted
about six inches. The skylights hat
fallen on the deck, after having beer
sent as high as the mast. The Manor
was designed by Burgess and built b!
George Lawley, Of Boston, nine year
age.

A MODERN CAVALRY CHARGE.

AS the opposing forces approach the
gallop is given, and closer and closer
they come. The old brigadier is in
front, motioning back his men with his
sabre so as ID keep them steady and to-
gether. Suddenly and simultaneously,
on both sides, the charge is sounded.
The two cavairies approach each
other like thundsrbolts, each man
pressed on by THESE in the rear; the
second line is trying to force its way
into the first, and then-they meet.
The bursting Of the two waves rem
ders one mighty crash to heaven. The
dust thickens, and under this heavy
pail of death all knowledge Of events
is lost. The cloud sways backwards

when an officer in command of our re-

HOT WATER IN ARIZONA WELLS

HOT WATER IN ARIZONA WELLS.
The wells in parts of Arizona have
recently become producers OF hot
water, and apprehension is felt by
many Of the residents Of the region
AFFECTED that they are about to be-
come participants in grand volcanic
drama. In some of the wells the tenn
perature of the water rose 20 degrees
in single night. In a few the phe-
nomenOn disappeared soon after its APP
ps arance. In a majority Of cases, how
ever, the wells fairly steam from their
newly acquired heat. The first known
of this curious state of affairs was q
report that the wells at MaricOpa on
the Southern Pacific railroad, thirty
miles south OF Phoenix, had suddenly
become hot.
1t was four daSs thereafter that thu
phenomenon first was nS<ieed dozec
miles west of that Place. "A lest at on'

100 degrees. No difference is noted il

wife thought there was no end TO their
ncome, and before they realized it they
had gotten rid of it all. While work
ing at Middletown Welsh enlisted and
got into bad company. which has
placed him where he is to-day. 1t has
been bitter experience to the young
man, and hereafter he says he intends

ADJUSTMENTS
NAY IRWIN

Those who are looking forward TO the
engagement Of Miss May Irwin on sat
urday night will be glad to learn that
Ignatio Martinetti, the mercurlal Jan
Ger, with the volatile motions OF an
electric eel, will again figure proml-
nently in her support. Mr.. Martinetti
will play the part Of Gustave Lalouette,
a poverty-stricken anarchist, who has
nothing in the world but an Internal
machine. left to him by his father.
Kate Kip, the character in which Miss
Irwin is to appear, during the progress
of the play, has imperative necessity
for a husband for three-quarters OF an
hour, and Mr.. Martinetti, as GastaYe
Lalouette, is called upon to carry out
this very enervating deception with re-
suits that may be we'll imagined. 1t is
said that Mr.. Martinetti will again try
to sing a song; he has not voice OF
Jean de Reske, but he makes the audi
ence believe that he thinks he has, and
great many people would prefer &c
hear Mr.. Martinetti try to sing, who
can't, than hear a brilliant primo
donna who can. Mr.. Martinetti is one
OF the essentially funny men in thu
realm Of light comedy. 1t is said ina
Miss Irwin, in the character Of Kat
Kip, is very well provided for. She Il
supposed to be a buyer for a large de
partment store, and as such is calle'
upon to travel through all the princi
pal cities of the world. The action o
the play does not devolve upon he
commercial occupation, but upon he
quick wit which her business has de
veloped, and which she is called upo
to exercise in fighting the politica
schemes of legislative boss in tn
town where she makes her headqaaI
tiers at home. The entire action OF tn
play takes place in three hours.

question Of whether the light was
burning or not, one Of the officials
said:

place as good a light as it is possible
to get. 1t is impossible to keep man
on these rocks to attend to the light
throughout the night. II the light was
not Burning when the yacht struck it

that put it GU"
1t is the absence of light on the
