Two Incendiary Fires Are the Ini- tial Features of 1800, TRIMBLE FINDS MORE TROUBLE, How an Enraged Hash Slinger Held the Fort—A Fireman's Painful Reception at the Rooms. Two More Incendiavy Blazes, About 4 o'clock yesterday morning an in- © ndiary fireat the coal and wood yards of W. W. Wiltiams, on Upper Broadway, called for the attention of the fire department, That the fire was the work of an arsou flend there is not the slightest doubt, The yards are but a few fect from No. 4 hose house, but the lime and cement shed in which the flanies were found was very badly burned. There was every indication that oil had heen used i liberal quantitics, That the fire laddies turned out in marvelously quick time is sbown by the fact that when Captain Ander- son of the Merchants’ police, who discovered thi fire from the opposize side of Broadway before the flames had broken out, rushed across the street and entered the hose house, the horses were harnessed and the firemen ready to publ out, They stated that the light from the burning structure had awak ened them. If this is the case, they deserve credit for making the quickest hitch on 'ord, us they must have gotten up, dressed, ondod to tho lower floor, opened the stable doors and mado the hitch in less than two scconds, as the flames ware but just breaking ont when the officer rushed across the sidewalic aud opened the door, Several quick hitches have been made 10 the depart- ment, but this breaks the record by several seconds, The building and to the extent of sev the fames wi communicate propert ‘e fire was hardly under control another blaze was discove side of the st known as 1) Frank De G contents were domagea 1 hundred dollars, but subdued before they could with any of the adjoining when d on the opposite t, at the rear of the building ‘Bucket of Blcod,” where as murdered in cold blood less than n by Tom Brooks.

Yy There 18 something aprarently mysterious counnected with these incendiary fives. They have been going on for several months, and there is no indication that tho firebugs are any nearer appreliension than they were at the beginning. ‘The volico failed to wet even the slightest clue, and about a dozed special police wera put to work, but this failed to produce the desived result, the fires continu- ing to break forth even in the districts where the police were supposed to be the most num- erous, As nearly as can be ascertuined no attempt has been made to forret out the guilty parties, and thoe regulavity with which property s boing destroyed is becoming mo- notonous.

Affairs have indeed come toa most Jamenta- ble stage when there is even the slightest foundation for somo of the charzes that have been made, as yet indirectly. Thut the most disgraceful rottenness exists in certain ofticial quarters is _admitted by members of the city council and some surprising devel- opments are promised atsthe next meeting of that body. It is an open secret that cor- tain parties who ure desirous of an i ment to a place in the department have boen unduly zealous during the past few months 0 show how well they are qualified for tho position. It is understond that they are anxions to be avpointed to the new house on Lower Broadway, which is just completed. If this is the proper solution ‘of the matter it is fair to supposc that if they ar. successful in their scheres that there will be a marked decrease in incendiary fires after the appoint- ments ar bade, If this is not the case it is ainly time that the matter was thoroush- ly investigated, Saddle Rock rostaurant, 402 Broadway, oven day and night. rirst class.

We now have in & larly fine in the wa, heads at To be hone duplica Pryor's I A8 Thorongh ailure on tha Plat- form as Could be Imagined, Vice Mexican Consul Maurice Rahdon yan i sting story-teller, says the Kansas City Journal, He has also traveled extensively in American coun- tries and through most of the Ruropean countries. In the meantime ho has had many voeations, as is customar tion and energetic in years ago he w baper busine odges of the ing him nature, engaged in the ne in the east, his languages of Europe mok- valuable in that capacity. Later he became o theatrical agent.and it wasduring his caveer in that capicity that the occurrence which he relates as follows took vlace, Y It was in the beginning of the 70s, when Henry M. Stanley, after finding Livingstone, returned to this country. At that time the New York FHeraid published daily from two to three columns ubout” Stanley. while pavers liize the New York Times,World, Trib- une and others publicly expressed their doubt about Stanley's veracity in the matter. They went even go far as to publish contradictory veports, which stamped Stanley more or less of an im- poster. o tried to impose upon the American public the greatest ‘canard’ onrecord. An enterprising and wenithy theatrical speculator, Fred Rullman, though, had absolute faith in the truth in Stanley’s statements and the Herald's accounts, He engaged Stanley for a course of fifty lectures in the United States and Cannda, at the rate of $500 alecture, and fo make good his contract he made an advance payment on account of the sum of ¥5.000. I was appointed wce agent for this enterprise and an to advertise in New York, Brook and Boston, ab the sume time, as it was intenion of tho management to pro- ceed from New Yoric direct to Boston. “The New York Herald pushed that enterprise enormously Instead of two or three columns it published almost an entire bout Stanley, while all the other dalies and weeklies in York City. with the exception of the Evening Telegram, whieh, in fact, was an abbreviated edi- tion of the Herald, opposed the course of lectures in a most categorical man- Y still upholding the opinion that Stanley was merely an adventurer, and that his discovery of Livingstone was the invention of his imaginative brain. At last the evening of the lecture ap- proached. *When Rullman saw on the morning. of that day that the advance sale of the tickets did not amount to $25 he author- ized me todistribute parsonally 50 tick- ets to the colored teac of the public schools and colored ministers of various congregations, includingalso the digni- t: of the colored population in New York city. His order was carried out, but to our utter amazement but few of them availed themselves of the invita- tion, and Steinway hall, the evening of the first lecture of the celebrated plorer on *How I Found Livingstone, contained about one hundred peoplo, including all the press represen catives. **But now comes the point I wish to refer to. I was introduced to Mr ley a few days previous to that evening and met him afterward two or three times. I found mm a most congenial, pleasunt_and extraordinarily modest man. The evening of the first lecture the clock had long struck the hour of 8, and the poor people present beeame un- sy, when Mr. Rullman asked me to goand request Mr. Stanley to proceed with his lecture. I did as ordered, and was_absolutely perplexed when I found the bold discoverer who had undergono more fatigue, trials and tribulations than any man before him. trembling like a schoolboy who s afraid to face the public. He begged me to allow him a few more moments 1o collact himself. e had alveady partaken of a pintcf champagne and’ thought sec- ond pint might vlace him right. At last he mustered courago and appeaved before the audience. His onening re- marks were hardly audible to those who sat nearest to him, and within fifteen minutes the entire audience’present pronounced him unanimously the great- est failure us a public lecturer thut had ever been scen or heard of in New York. *The mood my employer was in can better.be imagined thun described. I endeavored to keep away from him as much us possible, when finally I heard his stentorian voice calling’' me. ‘In twenty-five minutes the last train leaves for Boston, Go thither at once and do your utmost to change public opinion, I’l1 follow you tomorrow.’ “‘Ileft as I was for Boston, but non- sensical us the ovder of my employer was there was nothing to do. An hour after my departure the whole country from Muine to Florida was informed of Mr, Stanley’s utter failure as a lecturer, and when I presonted myself the next morning, bright and early, at the Tre- mont Temple, everyboay knew that my mission was entively vain and that our enterprise wus a failure. Strange as it seoms Stauley desired to deiiver his course of lectures, but poor old Ruhl- mun had enough of it. The honor of introducing the celebrated Livingstone discoverer to the American public as alecturer had cost him nearly $10,000,” e — EXCITING WOLF HUNT. A Ficld That itesemblod a Sanginary Bautle viald, Early last suring the two little boys of Bdward Limpus were missed from home one evening, and the whole neighborhood spent the night and the following day searchiug for them., A full account of the finding of the boues of the children and the evidence of the facy that they were devoured by wolves wis published at the time, writes a Rosier, Mo., correspondent of the New York Hervald. Now that the work of the season was cnded the time for the woll hunt was at hand, and in pursuance 10 a notice which had been sent out 180 men on horses, with about two hundred dogs, assembled at Roiser on Monday page pregared to spend the wook in a grand woil hunt, whicle whs to ba continued until all the wolgl had beon killed or run ont of the gopntry. The circle decided upon is ‘about twenty miles in diamoter and the object of the hunters was to drive the wolves from the shelter of the Grand Rivgr, hills into tho open { prairie and then keop them away from wheel of the pouderous apparatus passed | any of the surrownding timber until they were all kilrod, In order to actamplish the work of the hunt and not let any of the animals escape the whold ‘gffair was placed in charge of William Stone ns general of the forces, and he' ‘then divided the 180 man into six squads of thirty men ench, under the command of a captain, who acted under the general orders, but who was to use his own judgment whi ever any unforseen circumstances arose. The captains were to take the men under_their charge and station them around the hillsinsuch a v that they could be concentrated gradunily as tho advance was made, coming in from ail quarters at once in such a manner that the wolves would have only one direcs tion in which to run. After arranging the men in their re- spect; squads the rest of the day was soent in - gotting ncquainted with the topography of the country. o this end General Stone began at the extreme soutnern end of the rangoe of rocks and the whole day was spentin riding back- ward and forward over the hills with the whole command until every one was perfectly familiar with all the nooks and crannies in which the wolves were liable to hide during tho hunt. At 6 o'clock on the following day tho fox horns were sounded and the mount began. The d were all under leash, and none were to be loosed until the last signal was given. The start was made, every man riding diveotly for his as- signed post and General Stone going to the clifi just above the hoies where the wolves were supposed to be lodged, At ten minutes past 7 the first shot was heard, and then they enme rapidly, the last one being only twenty minutes be- hind the fir: The final signal w given and 1 cordon began narrowing toward the wolves. The dogs at first ran silently, but soon_ they began to scent their enemies, and then the woods rang with the music of their yelping. Every hole was 1nvestigated, and wher- sver the hounds showed signs of the nimals a halt was made to dislodge the wolf. When the hole would not permit forcing the wolf out, fire was vesorted to and the smoke soon sent the beast from his retreat. As the cirelo narrowed a regular exodus of wild animals took pliace from the underbrush, foxes, coons. and such small fry went seurrying through the woods for life, whils now and_then the big. gray form of a woll would be scen making a dash for the timber. The line was pyshed quickly toward the open country,wheve the guus of the party could be used to some effect, as in the underbrush it would ha been an exceedingly dangerous procceding to fire while so many men were in ciose proximity. LIVELY CHASE AND LOTS OF MENT. The firs! ident ' befel George S der, whose hor: into a hole, throw- ing the rider and breaking his arm. He sistod back to Rosier, where was dressed. and he then pluckily rode to the onening and joined n the hunt on the jjrairie. Four wolves were shot before *tae prairie was reached, and the lookouts stationed along the edge of thp timber reported that eleven had come out of the woods and were in the high grass off toward the Marias de Cygns river. The hounds were put on the trail and soon a chuse begnn such as has never before been seen in this section. When the wolves left the timber th bunched together and ran slowly, as if ata loss what to do. The hounds dashed in, but it soon be- came evident that they had no easy matter to deeide, as many of them were killed in the fight, The odds were too heavy, however, for the wolves, and when™ the entire puck of hounds made a dash into tho weeds abreak was made and nine wolves came in o hunch dir ard the squad captained by Mr lider. The horses were already greatly excited, and when they saw the wolves a stam- pede occurred in which Horace Pord and William Gates were thrown di- rectly in front of the pack of savage brutes. Gates received a broken leg in the fall and just as Ford attempted to rise he was knocked down byanim- mense wolf, which he grasped and at- tempted to kill with his hunting kni The wolf caught Ford’s shoulder in jaws and then followed a most terrific iuml] to hand struggle. A lucky stroke of his knife at last found the heart of the animal and then Pord fainted with pain. His arm was frightfully torn and mangled. He was sent back to town and the hunt continued. The wolves had by this time got a good start. Two had been shot as they dashed out of the weeds, two had been- killed by the dogs in the weeds, Ford had killed one, und four had been shot before they had left the shelter of the woods. The other six were making good headway, and an effort was made to head them off and drive them back into the open prairie. This was partly successful, two of the wolves reaching the timber before the head horsemen could get in front of them. The remaining fonr were now driven back, leaving a bloody trail behind them as they ran, the dogs having torn them and they having reciprocated in kind. The wolves ran only a short dis- tance when they made a stand and the dogs formed formed a_ecircle arouna them. One hundred and seventy dogs to four wolves were long odds, and tlie animuls appearod to realize the fact that the end was near. When Geneval Stone saw that the dogs could not be urged to close in he @ave ovders to the ten best marksmen of the company to'kill the wolves, and a fusillade rang out whicn brought toa close the most exaiting occurrence that has been heard of in this county for years, " At 6 o’clock the'Whole party veturned to Rosier and was ready to count up the day’s work, Thinteon wolves had been killed and two eseaped, at a cost to the hunters of one broken leg, two broken arms, one badly lacerated shoulder, which was liable to prove the most se- rious hurt of all;"forty or nfty badly bruised and sore men, three dead horses, seven crippled horses, fifteen dead and twelve :,:fi{ pled dogs, while at least fifty more h “asu bitten by the savage brutes in théir tight for life, b Watch the box, buy the genuine Rod Cross Cough Drops, 5 cenls per box, -~ Growing Umbr. lia Sticks, The fragrant German weichsel sticks, now s0 popular for canes and umbrella handles, are cut from a wild cherry, which, dealers say, grows only 1n the Black forest, says the New York Sun, The natural tendency of the wood is to grow crooked and goarled. In order to get straight sticks the German peas- ants build frames around the trees and train the young shoots upon them, fast- ening strings to the ends of the shoots, assing them over pullufu and attach- ng weights, The wgights are slight at fiest, but are inereased as the branch grows thicker and stronger, A tension 1s thus produced which insuves that the branch will grow straight.
