In the camp at Falls Church Va, are
a number of veterans who fought with
Sigel and with Sheridan in the Shen-.
andoah valley. From Falls Church to
the Blue Ridge mountains, which sep
arates the Shenandoah and the Loudon
valleys, is strip of not more than 80
miles. The panorama of nature pre-
sented on one of these ridges is one of
the finest in the world, and those SOL
diers now in camp here to whom the
scene is familiar lave taken advantage
of their nearness to the old fighting
ground to visit it once again to enjoy
its beauty and have the pleasures of
talking over old times.

A civil war Outrage.

How pitiless as well as ingenious
fraud can be may be gathered from
this bit of history from the civil war.
Lint was a necessity. With the wound
ed running up toward the quarter mil
lion it can well be imagined what large
quantities were required. All wounds
were dressed with it; antisepsis was
unknown. Women made lint; sociel
ties had lint bees; but still large sup
ply was called for. A certain church
leader of Boston hit on a plan. He
went to Europe and bought linen rags
by the bale at trife. Foul and dirty
as they came from the ash barrels, off
beggars' backs and what not, they
were dumped into one end of rending
machine, and came out at the other
end in white, fluffy mass. This was

strikers Defeated.

San Francisco, Nov. 1.-THE strike OF
pressmen and stereotypers on the daily
papers has virtually ended in victory
for the publishers. The Sunday issues
appeared as usual, several outside en-
gineers doing duty in the press rooms,
and men who had previously been
'subs" aiding the stereotypers who
remained on duty. The strikers have
practically admitted their defeat by
asking that the matter be submitted
to arbitration. They demand, how
ever, that the non-union men who
aided to prevent the papers from sus-
pending publication be discharged.
This is not likely to be conceded.

The Cruiser Maria Teresa Sinks During a
Terrific storm-went Down In 1900
Fathoms of Water.
Charleston, S. c., Nov. 1.-THE ocean
tug Merritt put into Charleston Satur-
day and reported the loss of the crusier
Maria Teresa, raised by Naval Con-
structor Hobson recently. The sur
vivors of the Maria Teresa lost all
their clothing and personal effects.
The Teresa sunk 80 miles off Watling's
island at noon Tuesday after battling
with the gale six hours. The water is
1000 fathoms deep where she sank.
She met the storm Tuesday morning
and the vessel began to strain in the
high seas. Parts of the hull became
weakened, the rivets broke and the
wa + made rapidly in the hold. The
boilers began to give way and finally
the water extinguished the fires in the
engine room. The pumps would not
work. The whole vessel showed signs
of collapse and the men stood stripped,
awaiting orders to quit the ship. The
Vulcan was towing the Teresa. The
Merritt rescued ia of the crew, made
up of volunteers from the Cincinnati,
Newark and Vulcan. The ropes were
then cut and the Teresa sank.
Washington, Nov. Tt is said at
the navy department that provision
was made by which the Teresa could
have weathered any ordinary storm.
A rough wooden deck had been nailed
over her upper works. Her hull was
then sheathed and heavy chains were
wound around her so as to hold her to-
gether. Although far from seaworthy,
all that was expected was that the
cruiser might be kept afoat until
docked in this country. She had been
stripped of all guns and valuables save
the 11-inch guns before starting, so
that it is believed there will be no loss
on that account. 1t is the opinion of
the navy department that the govern
ment has lost-besides the value of the
ship herself-only the amount of the
per diem of $500 per day through the
sinking of the vessel, because the con-
tract appears to have required the de-
livery by the wrecking company of the
vessel at the navy yard at Norfolk,

WONDERLAND in RUINS.

Eleven Workmen Killed by tho Collapse
OF . Thsater ut Detroit, Mlch.-A Score
Injured.
Detroit Mich, Nov. THE new
tive-story Wonderland theatre build
ing is in state of collapse, and II or
more lives have been sacrificed by an
appalling accident which occurred
therein Saturday afternoon. While
some S5 men were at work in the half
finished portion of the structure, the
roof fell in without seconds warn
ing. Nearly every workman was
carried down into the theater pit;
the top gallery was crushed down
upon the lower gallery, forming sort
of fatal hillside, down which slid
broken steel girders, planks, timbers,
brick and great quantity of cement
from the roof and carrying along a
struggling company of men into the
pit below, very few of whom escaped
injury.
The front wall of the building re-
mained practically intact, but the east
side wall bulged threateningly. Not
withstanding the latter danger, the
work OF rescuing the injured and TAX
ing out the dead was rushed and good
progress made until 5:15, when the up
per portions of the east wall fell, a
shower OF bricks striking around the
crowd of laborers, officers and news
paper men, extinguishing the tenn
porary electric lights and causing
stampede for the street, Fortunately
none OF those who were struck by the
second downfall were seriously in
jured, although several were precipi-
tated into the basement through the
steel joist, over which only few loose
planks were laid. Eight dead bodies
were recovered Saturday.
Three more victims were dug from
the ruins yesterday. This makes the
death list so far II. The bodies re-
covered Sunday were identified as
Peter Pfeifie, carpenter; Frank Wolf,
timer, and Max Pett, who was VOLTS
helper. All the injured at the hospi-
tails are reported on the improve except
Edward Fischer, who is expected to
die. A mass meeting of citizens was
held Sunday in the mayors office and
over 81, 900 was subscribed for the re-
lief of the families of those who were
killed. The loss on the property is
about $1O2, 900.
What caused the catastrophe is still
unknown, and probably will be until
the coroners inquest. A prominent
local architect in an interview stated
that he did not believe in the theory
that the steel work was faulty, but be-
lieved it was not heavy enough. All
three bodies discovered Sunday were
in the center of the building, buried
under tons of debris. Frank Wolf was
found strangled to death by heavy
steel girder which lay across his
throat, being otherwise uninjured.
Both the other bodies were frightfully
mangled. In addition to those known
to be dead there are still missing
Fred Miller, Charles Mielke and O.
Mullin.

hicle for the ascent of the mountains.
1t so happened that the driver of the
vehicle was one of Mosby's men. There
are lots of them still left in Virginia,
and they are generally to be distin-
guished from the fact that they stick
to the old style of wearing pointed chin
whiskers. AS the officer and his wife
were being driven along he INDUCED in
many "reminiscences of his experience
in the valley during the dark days of
the civil war, pointing out to her places
about which he had same particular re-
membrance. There was just little bit
of vainglory in his narrative of his
personal adventures. Several times the
man who was doing the driving
touched up the horses little viciously,
as if he were in bad humor. Once or
twice he seemed on the point of break
ing in on the conversation, but he re-
considered and held his peace. Finally
the party reached point in the road
where the ascent of the mountains be-
gins. The officers face frightened up
as he viewed the scenes spread out be-
fore them.
"Do you see that hill right over there,
dear?" he said to his wife, pointing to
the place. She nodded.

"What," said the union officer, "were
you one of that party of 'rebs' that
came down on us?"
"Yes, sir; I was one of them. We sat
up there on the top of the hill and
watched you cooking that supper, and
when we thought you had it done about
to our taste we came down to join
you"
SWELL tell me, my friend" said the
union officer, where on earth did you
fellows come from? You must have
come up mighty sudden"
"Well, I'll answer your question,

you'll clear up mystery for me-"
Certainly; what is it?"

New York sailors Vote.

New York, Nov 7.--On two warships
in the navy yard the sailors from New
York state who could not go to their
homes have been permitted to vote for
state officers. Instructions from the

manders of the battleships Indiana
and Massachusetts, under which they
allowed the men to vote. On the Mas
sachusetts 20 men voted and on the
Indiana 1s. There are 300 men on each
ship. The sailors on the cruiser Brook
lyn will have chance to vote to-day.
