In the “Topics About Town” column of the Philadelphia Press of today is the fol- lowing: The exploit of Professor Andree in at- tempting to reach the north pole by bal- loon was the subject of discussion recently in a gathering of theatrical people. Refer- ence was made to several aeronauts who had sailed away on aerial voyages from which they ‘had never returned, which re- called to one of those present the circum- stances connected with the disappearance of Frederick Gower, the husband of Mme. Nordica, the opera singer. Mr. Gower was an amateur aeronaut. One day he went up in a balloon, and, for all anybody knows to the contrary, he is still up there. At any rate there is no record of his having come down, no trace of either man or bal- loon ever having been found. The person who remembered the affair told the story about as follows: “The married life of Mr. and Mrs. Gower was not happy. Mr. Gower made a great deal of money by investments in telephone stock, and it was said that his fortune amounted to $2,000,000. After a bitter quar- rel Mrs. Gower decided to bring an action for divorcee. Her husband converted all of his property into cash and then went up in a balloon, leaving no ciue to the where- abouts of his money that his wife could find. ‘The affair was very mysterious. Had Mr. Gower met with an accident it is thought that at least the wreck of the bal- loon would have been found somewhere on the face of the earth. It has been sus- pected for years that his balloon ascension was merely a ruse to avoid the scandal of a divorce and the necessity of paying all- mony to his wife, and that he descended in an out-of-the-way place, where he de- stroyed the balloon. Those who knew him best have always been convinced that he is still in the land of the living and ts en- joying himself under an essumed name. ————_+e« CUT DOWN BY A STEAMER. The Barkentine Florence Sinks at —Four Men Drowned. The Allan line steamer Scandinavian ar- rived at Boston yesterday afternoon from Glasgow and brought with her four sur- vivors of the crew of the British barkentine Florence, Captain Henry Olsen, which sank in a collision with the Scandinavian last Saturday in a dense fog twenty miles south of Cave Race. Four members of the crew were drowned, together with the wife of Captain Olsen. The Florence was bound from Sydney, C. B., to St. Jchn’s, N. F., with a cargo of coal. The men who lost their lives were: Wiliam Yabsley, aged twenty-five years, a nephew of the captain’s wife.

Found After a Buttle With Natives in South Africa. Right Hon. Joseph Chamberlain, secre- tary of s'ate for the colonies, has received a dispatch from her majesty’s high com- missione* at the ¢ stating that in the fighting at Fort Martin, near Hartley, South Africa, on Saturday, the noted chief, Mashirgom)bi, was slain and between 400 and 500 of his followers were taken pris- oners. The government forces occupied all the positions at Marlies Kraal, where they captured more than one hundred prisoners. A dispatch from Fort Salisbury says that the British forces took the natives com- pletely by surpri When a charge was made upon the stockades the natives fled to thelr caves, in which they were afterward captured, Mashingombi’s main cave being destroyed with dynamite. Mashingombi was wounded during the attack and died soon after being taken prisoner. Two butlets made of solid gold were found aiter the fight. ee PTS FE De RECEL L OFF, Preliminary Report of the Commis- sioner of Internal Revenue.

Preliminary Steps to Ascertain the Cost. Secretary Long has taken preliminary steps toward the creation of a board of naval officers to ascertain the cost of a government ermor plant. Two members of the board have been selected—Commo. dore Howell, commandant at the League Island navy yard, and Captain McCormick of the Norfolk navy yard. These officers rank high as experts upon the subject of armor. The field of work of the board will It must not only ascertain the cost of a modern armor plant, but must also take into account the propriety, or rather the necessity, of establishing in con- nection with it a complete plant for the production of steel ingots, a very large undertaxing. The experts are of the opin- jon now that it is probadly necessary in making armor to begin with the ingot at the very moment it is forged and before it has cooled cnce. ‘his is done in the best Practice, and, if it should he held to be ab- solutely necessary, the government will be obliged to establish a steel plant along- side its armor plant if it embarks in the business of armor making.

Editor Patterson of the Montgomery, Ala, Argos, the paper of the colored people there, was shot and killed shortly after noon yesterday in the Columbus Street Colored Baptist Church. A conference was in progress at the time and the admission of Brown, the de- posed pastor of the Dexter Avenue Baptist Church, was under discussion. Patterson opposed Brown's admission, and Stokes, pastor of the Columbus Street Church, favored It. Hot words ensued. Patterson struck Stokes in the face, when the report of & pistol was heard and Patterson fell dead. Several arrests have been made and there is great excitement among the colored pecple. A colored man named Pritchett, who con- fessed to having shot Patterson, was caught about 4 mile from town by a col- ored posse. He is in jail. The trouble was the result of a church feud growing out of a speech of Parson Stokes, colored, of Montgomery, made re- cently in Philadelphia, in which he told northern people that the better class of colored people indorsed the lynching of those guilty of assault on women. The man who did the shooting is in jail and lynching is anticipated. ——__+e+-—___ Fears for the Alphee.
