LOST BY FIRE.
Two Cottages and Contents
Burned at Ocean View.
That of Mr.. j. l.. bunting and tho One oc-
cupicd by Mr.. W. Is. Obcrntorfer Mrs.
oberndorfer Loses Some Very Valuable
Jewels.

What might have been q sweeping
fire calamity at Ocean View last night
resulted in the complete destruction
Of two cottages, one occupied by Mr..
w. p. Oberndorfer and the other by
Mr.. Julius l.. Bunting
The fire started at about 10 O'clock on
the lower floor of Mr.. Obcrndorfer's
cottage, probably in the dining-roorn.
The origin is unknown. but the fact
that lamps are used in thees cottages
may explain the matter. Mr. Obern-
dorfer quickly succeeded in conducting
his wife and mother out of the burning
building. and they had just time to
rush upstairs and bring down to safe
ty his 9-year-old boy, jeff. No time
was had In which TO save any articles
of value whatever, except one trunk of
clothlng, as the cottage was burned to
the sand in one hour after the flames
were first discovered. All OF Mrs.
Oberndorfers valuable jewels were in
the house. and are probably lost, to-
gether with all the furniture clothing
ana everything else in the house The
loss is heavy one, and cannot be cs
timated approximately at this time. IA
Tar as known, there was no insurance
on this property.
The cottage was leased by Mr.. Obern-
dorfer.
Mr.. Bunting's cottage, adjoining Mr..
Oberndorfers was also burned to the
ground but 1t is believed that his loss
Is partly. If not wholly, covered by in
surancc.

Roadway would have been gotten If it
had blazed.
Fortunately, the wind shifted and
blew seaward. II 1t had blown the
other way it Is doubtful whether or not
terrible calamity could have been
averted.
There were 1000 to 1900 people at the
View at the time. The scene is de-
scribed as being grand one. with the
terrific rapid blaze and thick shower of
sparks. all reflected in the water.

owENsBoRo CITY r. co. v. HILL

Court OF Appeals OF kentucky.
March II. 1900.
IT IS NEGLIGENCE TO RUN AN
ELECTRIC CAR AT AN UNUSUAL
SPEED WITHOUT GIVING WARN
ING OF IT'S APPROACH TO A
STREET CROSSING.
This was an action for damages for
personal injuries caused to the plain
tilt by being struck by an electric car
at street crossing. From Judgment
for plaintiff defendant appealed.
The court says:
II is insisted that the verdict is not
sustained by sufficient evidence The
testimony OF appellee and her witnesses
conduce to establish the fact that the
car was running at an unusual fast
rate of speed: that no gong was sound
ed. or other warning given of the an
preach of the car where the accident
occurred; that the motorman did not
slow up as he approached the cross
ing. Those in charge of street cars
operated by electricity along the pub
lie streets of a city must know that
they are operating dangerous machin-
cry; that men, women and children
have the right to cross and be upon the
streets. and that they will do so: that
those In charge of the cars must keep
iVoNout' aiu tahe reasonable meas
ures and care to avoid injury to those
that may be upon the streets. 1t is
the duty Of street car company which
propels its cars by electricity TO keep
them under such reasonable control
as will enable them to avoid injury
to those who use the streets. 1t would
be gross negligence for one in charge
OF an electric car on the streets of
city to fail to give warning of its ap-
proach at street crossings. The testi-
mony of the plaintiff tends TO show. as
we have said, that the car was running
ut an unusual rate of speed, and gave
no waring of its approach to the cross
ing. If the jury belived this to lie
true. then 1t was bound to reach the
conclusion that the defendant was
guilty OF negligence. Affirmed.

Frank White and Stephen Moriarity,
1S-year-old boys who rode from At

When the train arrived White rolled
off the roof and broke his fall by
landing on a passing trainman. His
companion tainted. The two then told
how they had thought it would be
excitement to ride on "A roof from Ate

I'VE little knew that we had got on
a flyer which makes no stops and
which runs faster than chain light

something awful. Every tine we

Seth Abbott. of San Diego, Cal, fa-
ther of the late Emma Abbott, the ia
nous American opera singer, was con-
fined in cell at police headquarters
a Lowell, Mass. the other day. He has
an income of 800 a week, left him by
his daughter, and has gone insane over
his money.
His daughter, Mrs. Eliza beth Abbott

notified to come for the old man. He
IS SO years old.
He came to Lowell recently to visit
Mrs. b. c. Atkinson. distant relative.
He was arrested for throwing money
away in the streets and giving it to
clerks in the stores. Literally. he had
every kind of money about him, and,
although he was dressed in broadcloth,
the police locked him up because they
did not know his identity. Now that
i; has been discovered, he will be given
more comfortable room at the city

Some Pertinent Remarks
Bryan's Letter Of Acceptance,

10 has cause! t! m u be related L.
each other. He has no information as
10 European purposes in Asia, but he
has the astounding hardlhood to say
that no European nation would be
willing to provoke a war with us in
order to obtain possession Cf the Phil
ippines." The folly CT this is incredi-
BILE but there it is. He says that he,
at the head of the government, would
with an extra session go to war with
any nation of Europe to prevent that
nation from possessing the islands. On
that alone Mr.. Bryan should be utterly
defeated. He lacks cCmmcn sense and

Big Coal Contract,

Colonel w. P. Rend, the millionaire
ccal operator of Chicago, has been in
England and other European countries
for the past month and the latest word
close a deal for upwards of four bill
iontons of American coal 1t is a
known fact that the European collier
les are fast giving out, and before
many years the whole of Europe will
be compelled to go abroad for her fuel
supply. Mr. Rend went to Europe Cs-
tensibly on a pleasure trip. but his mis-
sion is about to turn out TO be one of
profit to thousands of coal miners If
the Sunday Creek valley, as well a. in
West Virginia.
The effect this enormous order if
secured. will have upon this valley is
two fold, and the miners will be given
steady employment fcr several years to
come The price that must necessar-
lily be secured for this export coal must
necessarily be very high and there is
no cause, that we can see, that will
prevent the miners receiving good
price for mining it. The capacity of
the mines, no doubt, will be greatly in
creased and there is probability that
several more new mines will be put
down by the Rend company. 1t is not
probable, however, that should Mr.
Rend succeed in securing this order
abroad he would attempt to commence
filling it for some time yet.
Should Mr. Rend close this contract,
and every indication is that he will,
there is not much danger of the great
Pennsylvania anthracite strike af-
ecting the miners in this part Of Ohio,
as none of the bituminous coal mined
in this section will be used to supply
the stringency in the anthracite mar
ket On the other hand the Ohio min
ers will be called out by the national
organization should the anthracite Cp-
orators attempt to supply their Gus
toners with bituminous coal. This
will, very likely be attempted if the
Pennsylvania strike is of any consider
able duration.
1t is to be hoped however, that Mr.
Rend will succeed in closing this enor-
nous European order and will thereby
not have a chance to attempt to sup
ply any CT the anthracite markets with
soft cOal.-Glouster Press

NEW STYLE OF LINE MAPS.
Some for Railroads Are Nodded of
Various Kinds of Clay and
Baked Like Brick.

1t is learned that the Northwestern
Railway company, of England. is in
Producing in several of the stations OF
the line maps of the tile for accommo-
dation of patrons of the road. The
maps measure about six feet square
and are made of tiles six inches square.
In manufacturing these maps the tiles
are made by the ordinary process of
mixing various kinds of clay in liquid
form. After the necessary treatment
the tiles are nodded, placed in the
kiln and brought to the condition tech
nically known as "bisque." The draw
ing of the map is reproduced on copper
plates, one plate for each tile, and
impressions are made upon specially
prepared paper The prints so pre-
pared are transferred to the surface of
the bisque tile and rubbed into ii care
fully to cause the oily ink of the pa
per impression to adhere to the tile.
The paper is then removed by damp
ening it with water and rubbing ii off,
the ink being left behind without any
danger of injuring the surface of the
tile or blurring the fineness or the
sharpness of the lines. The tiles are
then sent to the kiln to be "hardened
on" after which they are put in kilns
and fired. They are then taken to the
painting-room, where the co,ors are
put on by hand. after which they are
sent to the enameling kilns After this
third firing they are ready for slab
Ding" as the cementing of a design
or pattern in tile work is called.
1t has been suggested that these maps
will prove valuable for use for other
than railroad purposes, particularly in
the schoolroom, a great feature OF this
style being its durability.

DEATH IN CUPS AND GLASSES.
Americans warned Against Using
siIyer-Mounted Drinking Nes-
sells from Abroad.

Walter Schumann. United States con-
sui at Mainz, has called the attention
of the state department to the danger
to the health of persons using silver
mounted glasses and porcelain wares.
I.e SAYS a Frankfort newspaper some
tine ago called attention to the fact
tat certain kinds of silver-mounted
aad porcelain wares, such as cups,
asses, jars, vases. etc. had been
E.~ced upon the market.
The silver on these articles" he
says. "is applied by means of a gal
vanoplastic process in baths which con-
tain large quantities of potassium cy-
auide. As glazed wares have innu-
Ecrable hair-like cracks. this deadly
pc son enters these cracks. and the
a..icles, beautiful to look at, become
o severe menace to the health of any
b-dy using or handling them, and es-
pecially as it is impossible in the course
of manufacture to remove this poison
o-s residuum.
only a short time ago very severe
case of poisoning resulted from the
rse of such ware. ] am told that these
~cods are chiefly exported to the United
States from Frankfort, Berlin and
Stuttgart. 1t might be well for the
public to be informed of the danger
in these goods. and steps might be
taken to prohibit theig sale"
