Sin Exploded.

According to prominent citizen OF
Crystal Springs, who is at the capital
today, a radical method was resorted
to at that place the other night to put
houses of ill-resort out of business,
Some unknown person placed charges
of dynamite under the houses and
blew them sky high. The inmates es-
capped just prior to the explosion. The
affair created much excitement in the
community, and rumor connects the
names of prominent citizens as escap-
ing from the house at the same time
with the inmates. Clarion Ledger.
Something like the above has threat
ened to explode in Brookhayen, nota-

he was united in marriage to Miss
Parkinson, and from thence be went
to Charlottesville to reside. He was
whole-souled in his nature, strong
and fearlessin physical courage, and
daring to considerable extent. It
is said that Gabe Owens, who fred
the fatal shot, did so with very
little provocation, taking Rogers
somewhat unexpectedly. The shot
lodged in the side and penetrated
the liver Death resulted in twenty
hours. The deceased left a wife
and three children with $1,000 in
surance. Capt. Rogers says he will
investigate the matter thoroughly
before undertaking to prosecute

A Busy Mill.

very congenial cynics that there is a
little life and activity left in Union

mills and the M. & 0. tracks the
yards are literally covered with
heading blocks and logs and all
about the buildings are stacked
heading and hoops which are com.
ing from the mills at the rate OF
10000 heads and 5000 hoops a day.
There are some forty or fifty hands
at work and counting the teamsters
delivering blocks there must be
employment for nearly an hundred
people. A dry kiln is to be built
forthwith for the heading. The
finishing machines are now on the
ground and will be running this

therefore entitled to the palm, but

American beauties, brides d

pretty varieties. He has also a
large bed of full-grown new lettuce,
which is certainly very tempting to
those who visit the conservatory.
We feel that not enough can be said
of the enterprise. 1t is one of which
any city can point with pride and
the lady who is giving her whole
time and attention to its conduct
should be heartily and thoroughly
congratulated for the work she has
achieved. The details of the plant
have already been given in this
paper, but briefly it consists of
three large Conservatives inclosed
in glass fitted with pipes and oper-
ated with steam heat. The beds
are elevated from the ground about
three feet in boxing and finely soiled
and scientifically cultivated. These
Conservatives are each about 100
feet in length and about 20 feet in
width. They form three sides Of a
square with office rooms in front
by walks. The entire
plant embraces several acres Of
ground and is a point of special
interest to visitors from the city |

Cured of Hydrophobia.

Mr.. John B. Wheeler, the popular
insurance man of Troy, was here
last week and informed us Of the
successful application of mad
stone at that place few days ago
That wonderful piece of rock is in
the possession of Rev. W. f. Bar.
rier, pastor of the M. e. church at
Troy, and the young man who has
been relieved of the terrible distress
and fear of the consequences of a
maddog bite is Gracy Jordan, of
near Covington. 1t is said that
there was no mistake about the
dog having hydrophobia, and as
soon as young Jordan's friends
learned of the maidstone, he was at
once sent to Rev. Barrier. The
application was made Immediately
upon his arrival and the stone adj
hered quickly and effectively, cling
ing like a leech to the bitten part
OF the body for FIVE and one-h half
hours. The stone. of course, loos-
ems whenever filled with he poison.
1t is then soaked in hot water and
applied again until the adhesion
ceases entirely. Whenever this
takes place the theory is that the
poison has ali been absorbed by the
stone. So, it is claimed that the
young man is thoroughly cured of
the malady with the successful ad-
hesion of the maidstone. In case
the stone does not adhere it is
claimed that the patient will show
symptoms of rabies at once. This
was an evidence that Jordan had
been cured.

TORY OF PADRES TOLD
BY LAURA BRIDE POWERS.

KING CITY, June 19.-With opales-
cent splendor the Sabbath broke over
the ruins of San Antonio Mission. 1t
was San Antonio's day. and over 200
people had come from far and near to
assist at the service, large parties going
from San Francisco, San Jose and Hol-
lister. Father Zephryn Englehardt
chanted the mass in the vestibule of the
old sanctuary.
Father Englehardt was assisted by
Father Garriga, the pastor of King
City. In all the country no more ap-
pealing sermon on this lovely Sabbath
day was heard than that of the Fran
ciscan, who standing within sight of
the graves of the padres told in stir
ring words of the work of those sainted
men for the cause of civilization, and
for their God.
The service over the annual baptism
of the native children took place amid
the usual vocal accompaniment.
The visitors and devotees repaired to
a feast was held, for this festival gath
ers together annually the last remnants
OF the Indian families who live about in
the mountains.
The graves of the early fathers were
not opened to-day as intended owing to
the length of the service and the
amount of labor involved, but pernis-
sion had been granted by the bishop
and the work of examining the tombs
will proceed at an early date.
