BIG GOLD STRIKE.

A big gold strike was made a few weeks ago oL the Buzzard's Shadow, one of the claims owned by the Home Copper company at Colo Gulch, near Morenci says the Copper Era. but which was kept quiet until this week.
 A. NJ. Porter. a well known miner, had a lease on the claim, and soon after commencing work he struck a lead of free gold. some of which would run into the thousands per ton. He sacked the low grade. which was worth s10O ger sack. The high grade he pounded out in metatte, and then melted it into sulgs at Lakenan' g camp. One day he was in Newtown and had a pocket full of these slugs.
 He tried to cash one of them with Hyer & Bunker. but as but little gold has been coming in of late years. Bunk
 was afraid of being gold bricked. and he took it to a jeweIer to test. and after that the secret got out, and the company cancelled the lease.
 Some of the ore is on exhibition at Harry WTight's, and it is certainly good to look upon. It is certainly [ f'ANi eIACN9iA tO Se'047iS any O4-S' NiA--' , years ago this rich lead was worked

New York, June 1.-THE, three
cum, burned to the waters edge, off
North Brother island, east river, at
the entrance to Long Island Sound,
resulting in the death through burn
ing or drowning of at least 600 per-
sons, mostly women and children.
Four hundred and ninety-eight bodies
were speedily recovered, and divers
were at work taking bodies from the
hold of the steamer
Great preparations had been made
of the Sunday school of St. Mark
German Lutheran church.
The scene on the decks of the steam
er as she proceeded up the East river
was one of merIymal>ing customary on
such occasions. The mass of flags
fiuttered in the June breezes, the
bands were playing and the children
were singing, dancing and waving
handl1erchiefs and flags in answer to
the salutations of those on shore or
from passing steamers.
The fire is said to have broken out
in the lunch room on the forward deck
through the overturning of IL pot of
grease. The wind was high.
Two hours and twenty-five minutes
after the fire was discovered the Slo-
cum sank. 1t is estimated that three
were then nearly 100 charred bodies
on her decks. Just afr the steamer
sank the water near by was black with
bodies.

STORY WITHOUT THE SEM
BLANcE OF A MORAL.
Faithful Retainer's Lapse from the
Path of Sohriety Responsible for
the Union of TWO Fond Hearts
Brother-in-Law Was Hasty.

A city clergyman tells this story
or a marriage in his church which
happened through a misunderstand-
ing. According to him there was a
bachelor whose affections seemed to
be centered in his sisters young sons
and daughters. There was an inter-
esttng young woman of another city
who rarely came to New York, and
he was such a very busy man that he
seldom got out of town to see her.
AS a result, the sisters children were
enough to make him daily in his
courtship.
1t happened that the brother-in-law

the bachelor-because he could stay
out late-heard dreadful noises in the
house early one morning. 1t could
not be a burglar, because they do not
fall down stairs and disturb the
house with hiccoughs.
Distressed at his brother-in-law' s
condition, but hopeful that he would
break his neck, the master of the
house went to sleep again. In the
morning he entered the room of his
brother-in-law in order to berate
him. The establishment of the bach
elor was great, and his anger was
greater. He had come home early
and sober. 1t seemed to him that he
could not live in the house any long
er under the circumstances, and he
left, too mad to talk to his relatives.
After breakfast at a restaurant he

ing that they were married that day.
Among those who were at the cere
mOny were the sister and brother-in-
law. The latter was very humble, and
explained that on going down to his
breakfast he had been confronted by
the butler, who had been many years
in the family, but who was dropping
the plates, singing in a maudlin way
and acting in any way but that of q
model butler. When the brother-in
law asked the butler for an explana
ton of his condition, he confessed that
on his evening off he had seen friends
so many and SO often that he had
come home in such a condition that
he had fallen down stairs several
times on his way to his room.
