London, Oct. 1S.-The distressing
scenes witnessed at the offices here
Of the Atlantic Transport Co. when
the news of the wreck of the steamer
Michigan first became known to those
who had friends or relatives on board,
were renewed. There were many
weeping women present, several with
infants in their arms, appealing for
news of the missing. Most of them
were the wives of members Of the
crew. Some of them went away still
hoping their husbands had been res
cued, but the majority gave way to
despair.

Last pays of ElectrieaI SHOW.

The electrical show at the Madison
Square Garden will close on Saturday
evening, June 4. 1t is an attractionthat
has made deep impression upon every
one who has visited it and there is moth
ing in the way of electricity that is not
shown and in manner which can be
easily comprehended. There is a great
deal to see. 1t interests everybody: the
ladies find everything from electrical
cooking to the devices which are used in
the household, and the scientific man
cannot 60 astray in any direction in his
inquiries. The Illuminated chapel
which is shown under resemblance of
daylight in the assembly room is worth
visit; the historical tabieaux in the con-
cert hall are also worth visit; in fact,
hours and hours can be expended profit
ably in the Garden. The exhibition of
relics of the battlesbip Maine" the ex-
plosion of mines in the tank, and the
showing of how, without wire, the
dreadful work of blowing up ship can
be accom- plished, these and many other
things make up show that is a marvel
to every one. The admission is so cents.
and the exhibition is open every after
noon from o'clock and in the evening
until II. There are good concerts every
afternoon and evening, and something to
see all over. There are no side shows or
extra charges for anything.

"a clear Demonstration. ).

That genial friend of ours, conduc-
tor and also member of "Kenilworth, y
is teetotaler, is generally known, so
there was really no occasion for him to
demonstrate the fact TO his friends by
taking "cold water" bath while
dressed in his best Sunday Clothes" It
is now a much debated question among
the 'Kenilworth" boys as to the object
of the aforesaid member in selecting the
spot fer the demonstration just in front
of the club house. Just previous to the
plunge he was seen grasping with both
hands large fish and apparently making
frantic efforts to transfer the specimen
''sunico fishicus" from the boat to the
dock, while the noble specimen was OBJ
ject1ng IN vigorous manner. This fact
is taken into consideration by some of
the members in arriving at the conclu-
sion that the dive was made in an effort
to drown the fish, without regard to the
selection of the locality, while the re-
naming members regard it as a symbol
ical expression of removing the aspersion
upon his character, and the doubt of his
sincerity in proclaiming his temperance
proclivities which has prevailed amongst
his friends since few years ago when
he inadvertently opened his locker at the
club house in the presence of several
companions and revealed to their las well
as to his) astonished gaze enough ssorigi-
nal packages loaded and empty, to
stock country hotel.
