EXPLOSION CAUSES PANIC.
Mysterious subterranean Disturb
ance Occurs In q Section Of f'"s
West Virginia.

The people at Horton, w. Va, a
town on the West Virginia railroad,
were badly frightened at midnight.
There was loud rumbling, followed
by terrific explosion, back on the
mountain that made the earth
heave. Many of the villagers thought
the world was coming to an end, and
fell on their knees and began pray
ing. Some of those who were not too
badly frightened went out to investi-
gate. When they reached the locality
whence the report seemed to come,
the ground was found to be SO hot
THAI 1t al4RRst burned their feet, while
the air w&s filed with sitting smoke.
The opinion prevails that the mys-
FERROUS occurrence was the result of
a subterranean disturbance. There is
supposed to be coal oil in that loca-
ton, and many at first thought that
the explosion had been caused by the
Oil becoming ignited by burning
brush. The village of Horton is two
miles away from where the disturb
ance occurred, yet the houses rocked
and the occupants were nearly thrown
from their beds. The people refused
to 90 to work the next morning. The
mountain is SO densely covered with
Jack oak that it is almost impossible
to penetrate it. This has in a meas
ure prevented full investigation. =

MANNED A WHOLE FAMILY.
Career Of q kent1nky Man Who We'd
ded Three sisters. One of ~
Them Twice.

! The Moore family certainly held out
attractions to s. W. Hodge of Win
chester, KY, for he married three sis
tiers, one of them twice, was divorced
from two of his wives, while the third
now seeks legal severance of the tie
that binds her to- the attractive
Hodge. Each of his wives brought
forward charges of cruelty in her plea
for divorce. To. the plea of cruel and
inhuman treatment the last wife has
3sdded the charge of misappropriating
her property. Hodge came to Win
chester about ten years ago. To wom-
en- he was fascinating, and he quick
~ won the hand Of Miss Anna Moore,
daughter of a prosperous Laurel
county farmer. They had not been
maFrfed two years before she pro-
cured divorce. Then in another year
kiae died. After the death of his first
divorced wife Hodge began to pay at
tsntion to her younger sister. In a
yoar they were married, in another
year divorced Then after the ex-
drati0n OF six months came recon
citation and remarriage of the di-
vorcees &c. =zr
The court was: asked to separate
them finally within few months aft
er their second wedding. The third
Moore sister helped Hodge bring
about his fourth marriage two years
ago. Now she, too, is suing for di-
vOrce.

FIND MOUNTAIN OF COPPER.
Biggest Surface Showing in the
World Discovered Near
Vancouver

veritable mountain of copper has
been discovered within 80 miles of
Vancouver, B. c., at Howe sound, by
prospectors engaged by II. w. Treat
of New York and Sir Charles HILBERT
Topper of Vancouver. Both Treat
and Sir Charles declare it is the big
gest surface showing in, the world ;;
332 assays all over the mountain have
been taken, and it is claimed the ore
ran extremely rich. On the Daisy
claim, the chief showing in the group,
nature has done, according to Treat,
what a gang of 200 miners could not
do in five years., "a stream of water
having worn away the soft schist and
exposed a bluff of sheer, perpendicu-
lar cliff of copper ore 42s feet high.
Surface openings have also been made
with powder, which exposes the big
quarry of copper for $500 feet.
The famous outcropping is less than
half a mile from the famous Britain
MIA group Of prospects, which sold in
London recently for $4,000 It is
claimed by Treat and Sir, Charles that
their properties have a bigger show
ing than the Britannia group, and the
Britannia mines. according to the re-
port of the New York engineers, had
5000, 600 tons of low grade ore in sight
before $500. 900 had been spent on the
property. -u'

HORSES KILLED IN A DUEL.
A Connecticut Geldinx Fights a Mare

Two horses owned by Jacob johnson,
of Hartford, Conn.,, fought duel the
other afternoon, each kicking the 9th

killed with rife to end their suffer
ing. The pair were no sooner put in
their adjoining stalls than johnson
heard a noise. He went to the stable
and found that gelding had kicked
down the light partition: separating
him from his mate and was taking his
revenge for her failure to help pull the
load in the morning. ..-.
The mare returned the kicks with in
terest, staggering the gelding with her
well-directed hind feet attack. Her
strength, however, failed her and she
sank to the floor exhausted. Before
johnson could separate them the bay
mare had been kicked so badly that
both hind legs and her back were
broken. $ 5&7.; 4 81. =.
The ge1ding stopped kicking only
when dragged away by johnson and a
party Of neigh bors. He was, however
50 weak that the same rifle which was
used to end the mares misery termi-
mated his life. The two horses were
dumped into the same grave.

MINERS FIND STONE MAN..
Image of Large Proportions Discov.
cred at Depth of Twenty
Five Feet. A. ts@-~

In an upper story of a South Boston
junk shop, carefully packed in straw
and excelsior, there has been for lays
the stone figure of man. With the
exception of an uneven hollow in the
add omen and a few smaller imperfec-
tions in the mold. the image is excel
lent. It is that of man nearly six
feet tail, lying with bent legs, and one
arm across the breast, modelled in gray
ish stone. -
Several weeks ago, the story goes,
two miners digging shaft in Sprung
gulch, near Reno, New, came upon the
image of stone They found it at a
depth Of rs feet in a gulch.
They took out the figure rather care
iessiy, breaking off the feet, which
they. recovered later, and sold it to
George D.. Burton of Boston. It has
been examined by two or three per
SONS connected with the Peabody mu-

the face is said by some to be more

GRASS ON FIFTH AVENUE.
The One Queer Spot on Gotham's
Er4tsvhiIe Fash ionabIe Thor
OuShfare,

Grass is not a very common sight ON
fifth avenue, New York, in the sum-
mer time, but it is growing now ON
one corner not far from the top of
Murray Hill. This particular cornerl
was at one time the center of New
York's fashionable life, and every one
of the four residences situated on it
was occupied by a prominent family.
Now business has taken possession of
the region, and only one corner still
retains a residence. That is for sale,
and has already been rented by rumor
as the home of several clubs. But it
is still unchanged in appearance, and
has never been occupied since the
death of it's last owner. Grass has
grown in the spaces between the flag
stones and in the thin lines of earth
next the iron fence. -".'- ,'&.- g. .ss=a
