Mason struck & snag at Delta Landing, Miss., and was sunk with a loss of $175,000. Three persons were injured. May Barrowcliff, the young woman assaulted in Jersey City, gives signs of returning consciousness, but thus far her memory is a blank. British troops have been fired upon by the French in Senegambia, but it may have been blunder, as both forces were hunting native marauders. An explosion in the Albany Theatre Saturday last caused the total destruc- tion of the building. The city building adjoining was considerably damaged. Governor Flower has ordered all em- ployees of the State to undergo civil service examinations, and all persons not properly qualified must vacate their positions. The citizens of Jacksonville, Fla., propose to form a law and order league to prevent the Corbett-Mitchell fight. They are determined to prevent the fight at any cost. Fifty-two prisoners are now con- fined in Chicago jails charged with murder. The arrests for lesser crimes Were nevr so numerous, and the jails are overflowing. Hon Marius Schoonmaker, of Kings- ton, N. Y., a well-known politician and jlawyer, died on the 6th inst. aged eighty-three years. He held a number of important offices. The latest reports from Brazil indi- cate that the Government ts more than holding its own against the insurgents, jbut the news is so colored that the real facts are difficult to learn. The Ohio Farmers’ Alliance, in con- vention at Columbus, adopted a reso- {lution unanimously demanding that President Cleveland remove J. Ster- ling Morton, Secretary of Agriculture. Britain is to have thirty-two new warships, among them two battle ships, to cost $5,000,000 apiece, and a cruiser designed to be the biggest, swiftest and most powerful in the world. Andrew Carnegie, on the steamer as he is about to start for Egypt, told a reporter that he is not afraid of the income tax, and that he would like to see so low a tariff established that it would be a permanent one. The cutter Corwin has arrived at San Francisco from Honolulu. The Captain stated to a United Press re porter that there had been a big row in Hawaii, and that the Queen was probably back on her throne. An Austrian has invented a powerful shears for cutting torpedo nets on war- ships. The shears are attached to the head of the torpedoes, and they gash the net without reducing the speed of the torpedo or exploding it. Dr. Parkhurst, in a published state ment, indirectly charges District At- torney Nicholl and the extraordinary Grand Jury with dishonesty in not se- curing the indictment of Police In- spectors Williams and Schmittberger.

There were re i ported 480 business failures through- out the United States, as compared with 318 the week before and 313 in the week a year ago. Civil service reform is being enforced at Albany, N. ¥. Thirteen colored laborers about the capitol building all went down trying to spell “arithme- tic.” “Ain't dat great,” said one of the unfortunates, “makin’ us take & *zamination to clean spittoons?” A sitive hangman in Australia cut his throat rather than hang a woman. The Pope has written another, more emphatic, letter upholding the Repub- lic in France. Dissolute women driven out of New in large numbers. teana | The cruiser Olympis’s speed being officially determined as 21.686 knots, the builders get $400,000 premium. Mer.

The French Government will prompt- ly apologize for the slaughter of Brit- ish troops by a French force in Sierra waone. Ls York city are taking refuge in Canada ' in provoking war between Italy and France. Money was never before more plenty in Wall street, and loans are easy. There is a decidedly bullish tendency in stocks. Premier Rhodes threatens that if Britain meddles too much in South Africa the African colonies “may deal elsewhere.” The crank who fired a revolver at Delmonico’s uptown restaurant in New York was convicted of assault in the second degree. Chicago bandits bound the clerk of a loan office, covered him up with clothes, stole between $5,000 and $10,- 000 and escaped. Germany’s Chancellor writes that re- cent events in the United States and India have increased the importance of the silver question. Col. William L. Brown and Isidor Straus are Tammany’s candidates for District-Attorney Fellows’s and Comp- troller Fitch’s seats in Congress. Capt. Lendy, killed in Sierra Leone, wrote to England last July that he should not be surprised to see French soldiers on British territory in West Africa. Irish Nationalists may overthrow the Gladstone Government unless they get guarantees that Home Rule shall be kept at the head of the ministerial pro- gramme. The rumor is revived at Washington of the contemplated resignation of At- torney-General Olney and the appoint- ment of Postmaster-General Bissell as Attorney-General. The alleged deficit in the Chicago city treasury has resulted in the ap- pointment of W. T. Ackerman, late Auditor of the World’s Columbian Ex- position, as Comptroller. There has been a battle in Honduras between the Government troops on the one hand and the rebels and their Nicaraguan allies on the other. There are conflicting reports as to the result. Nearly all the persons arrested for bribery and repeating in Albany dur- ing the late election have been dis- charged for lack of evidence. Two or three cases will be sent to the Grand Jury. The Florida Methodist Conference passed resolutions calling for the sup- Germany thought to be trying 6 the Sicilian outbreak to account pression of the Mitchell-Corbett prize fight. Governor Mitchell telegraphed the conference: “I shall endeavor to do my duty.” Bishop MeNierny, of the Albany dio- cese of the Roman Catholic Church, is dead. He was one of the most dis- tinguished American prelates of the church, and a member of the Board of Regents of New York. Governor Waite, of Colorado, has re- quested the Legislature to impeach At- torney-General Engley on the ground that he has refused to give legal ad- vice to the Governor, State Treasurer and Auditor when requested. A Philadelphia dispatch says: Ex- General Master Workman Powderly and ex-General Worthy Foreman Hugh Cavanaugh are under indictment be- fore the General Executive Board, and in a fair way to be expelled from the order. Newspapers at Berlin state that the recent massacre of Catholic at Kros- che, Russia, by Cossacks, was due to the express order of Gen. Kakhanoff, Governor of Vilna. The papers de clare that sixty p.rsons were killed and 100 injured by the Cossacks. Gen. Gourko, the Russian command- er at Warsaw, is again reported to be near death. Numerous explanations of Gourko’s illness have been given. One is that he was poisoned, another that be has gangrene of the foot, and a third that he has a complication of nervous diseases. Miss Helen Cook, daughter of John L. Cook, a millionaire lumberman of Toronto, Canada, was married to Wal- ter Henry Cooper, a private in the local infaptry school, whose pay is but thirty cents per day. Miss Cook, wha is very handsome, is only sixteen. Cooper is nine years her senior. Her parents will take the couple to Europe, and Cooper will study medicine. While Rev. G. B. Chambers was holding religious services at Lima, O., Thursday night, James Chaveus and Alex Rogers created a disturbance. The pastor remonstrated, when Rogers tried to get at him, but stopped at a stove, where Chambers met him with a poker. A pitched battle ensued, the pastor striking Rogers to the floor and pounding him so badly that he will die. GENERAL MARKET REPORT.

To instantly obtain a light sufficient to read the time by a watch or clock by night, without danger of setting things on fire, is an easy matter. Take an oblong vial of the clearest of glass, put into it a piece of phosphorous about the size of a pea, pour upon this some pure olive oil, heated to the boiling point; the bottle is to be filled about one-third full, then cork tightly. To use the light remove the cork, allow the air to enter, then re-cork. The whole empty space in the bottle will then become luminous, and the light obtained will be a good one. As soon as the light becomes dim its power can be increased by opening the bottle and allowing a fresh supply of air to enter. In very cold weather it is sometimes necessary to heat the vial between the hands to increase the fluidity of the oil, and one bottle will last a whole winter. This ingenious contrivance may be carried in the pocket, and is used by watchmen in Paris in oli the magazines where explosives or inflam: mable materials are stored. The port of Dieppe, France, has been opened to American pork. A late attack of influenza has left the Princess of Wales entirely deaf.
