BROKE UP THE WEDDING.
An Incfdient of the Stranding of tin
Steamer St. Paul. ,
.' PHILADELPHIA, Jan. ,27.‘-—Alonzo Par-
sons, one of the proprietors of the Hotel
Brunswick at Asbury Park, tells an In-
teresting story of the experience of him-
self and a party 'of friends who were guests
at a wedding party in that place which
was virtually broken up by the sound of
the hoarse distress whistles of the St.
Paul, Campania and an unknown tramp
steamer.
number of others went out on the beach,
expecting to see one or more ships strand-
lowed the sound of the whistles for over
two hours, the ships in this time moving
five'miles up the coast. Finally one ship,
which afterward proved to be the St. Paul,
became stationary and began sending up
rockets.
the party was joined by a number of life
savers, and these men went to the assist-
ance of the distressed ship at the earliest
possible moment. When the sun rose and
the fog lifted, Mr. Parsons says, the St.
Paul, Campania and the unknown tramp
were all within a mile of each other.
The Campania touched, as did also the
tramp, but bOth got off without apparent
damage. Mr. Parsons says the St. Paul
when first seen was heading directly in
shore and steaming perfectly straight. ‘As
the day were on she listed heavily, and
the action of the waves carried her stern
around somewhat. He thinks that by
Monday, unless she is pulled off, which is
unlikely, she will be broadside on the
beach, and in that event will be in-great
danger of becoming a wreck.
PANIC AT A PAIR.
Many People Severely Injured During n
' Fire In a Western Village.
DUBUQUE, Ia.,' Jan. 27.—-During the
progress of a Roman Catholic fair in the
opera house at Farley, a village of 1,000
inhabitants, 23 {miles west of this place,
fire broke out and created a panic among
the merrymakers.
In an instant the merry crowd became
a struggling mob, anxious to reach open
air and safety. The fragile booths were
torn down as tho surging mass of people
crowded to the entrance. Many were tram-
pled upon and suffered severe bruises, but
no deaths will occur. There was alsOa
panic, though less serious, among the
guests of the Loomis hotel across the street.
The opera house block was entirely dc-
stroyed, together with the Loomis hotel
and two banks, two small stores and two
residences. The loss will aggregate $30, 000;
only partially insured.
If so. for hinltli. pleasure and comfort go
