WHILE FIGHTING FIRE
THREE ST. LOUIS FIREMEN MEET
A HORRIBLE DEATH
By the Collapse of a Building After
the Flames Had Been Subdued—Two
Other Firemen Receive Possibly Fatal
Injuries—Death of n Spectator.
ST. LOUIS, Aug. lL—The greatest calam-
ity that has ever befallen the St. Louis fire
department occurred yesterday morning at a
fire on North Second street, near the big
bridge, resulting in the death of three fire-
men and a spectator, and serious injury to
two other persons. About 2 o’clock fire
broke out in Bishop & Spears’ peanut stor-
age warehouse, a five story building, and
burned with great fierceness for an hour or
two, when the department got it well under
control, and before daylight all but one or
two engines had been sent home.
At 9 o’clock, while the few remaining fire-
men were playing on the smoking debris, the
walls of the building collapsed, bringing
downa part of the walls of Alkires & Co‘s
warehouse adjoining, and burying several of
the brave Inen in the ruins. Two of them—
Jacob Fcldtman and William Zimmerman—
-were rescued alive, though with injuries
which may yet prove fatal. The bodies of
Capt. Barney McKernan and Pompierman
Frank McDonald were found after a short
search. McKernac's skull was crushed in,
and McDonald was horribly burned and
crushed. Nearl three hours later the body
of Capt. Chris
mass of flesh, dirt and crushed bones.
A printer named James O’Brien, who had
been standing in front of the building on the
opposite side of the street, was so badly in-
jured that he died late lastnight.
. Two of the firemen killed were well known
.members of the department. Capt. McKer-
nan was foreman of the Pompier company,
NO. 3, and was acting as assistant chief at
thefire in place of Assistant Einnerty, ahent ,
from the city. He had been a member of
the department thirteen years, and leaves a
' wife and several children, nearly grown.
Capt. Hoe]! was foreman of Pomple: com-
pany, No. 6, and the father of the Pompier
life saving system in the St. Louis depart»
meat. Capt. Hoell drilled the first Pompier
companies organized in the fire department
of New York, Chicago and Milwaukee
and was well known among firemen
throughout the country. Directly after
the burning of the Old southern
hotel, fin 1877, he organized and drilled a
cltinens’ life saving Pompier company, and
three of the members besides himself were
taken into the fire department. Of these four
tiuce have been killed at fires, and the other
one was laid up a long time after a fine with
injuries received there. Capt. Hoell leaves a
wife and several children. Frank McDonald
wesanew memler of the department and
belonged to Capt. Hoell‘s company, as also
did F. Zimmerman, who was a member of
No. 23 engine company. These latter are
both internally injured, with the chances
against their recovery. Capt. McKeraan’a
company has lost three foremcn and three
other members within the last nine years, one
of the former being Phelim Tools, the here
of the Southern hotel fire.
SEIZURE ON A WAR SHIP.
Lost Their Ale Because They Bought
I from the \Vrong Man.
HALIFAX, Aug. ll.——An incident occurred
on boar-I the American war ship Richmond
yester-Iny afternoon, which, in view of the
prawn: r-Iatious letween the United States
and LI: nah, causes considerable amusement.
Sex-.3: n1 ninth-0.1 bottles of ale were being put
on Um Cup, having just been taken out from
the Shore, when License Inspector MacKen-
lie all ziluniy put in an appearance and seized
the all... The charge is that the ale was pur-
chasid from a city victualler who has no
license to sell liquor. He accommodated the
war ship with what was required because he
had supplied her with provisions while .in
port. The officers Of the Richmond are in-
volved in no trouble, but if the charge
against the victualler is proved he will be
heavily fined.
Much interest is manifested here on the
publication of a dispatch from Ottawa say-
ing that the officials of the fisheries depart-
ment had confirmed the report that English
war ships were to be sent to the Gulf of
St. Lawrence to assist Canadian fisheries
cruisers in the enforcement of the treaty
and Dominion laws. ' The United States
men-of-war now here will sail this after—
noon for Bar Harbor, Me.
nice Destroyed by Freshets.
COLUMBIA, S. 0., Aug, 11.—Reporte on
the disaster to the rice crops in lower Cali-
fornia by Ibo recent freshets are coming in.
The freshets of ten days ago have just
reached the coast, and there is another rise in
the rivers. Fifteen thousand acres of rice on
the Carolina side of the Savannah river have
been almost entirely destroyed. Augusta
and twenty miles of the interior are under
water for the third time this season. Very lit—
tle rice on the Savannah river will be saved,
and 15,000 acres of rice on the Ogeechee, and
5,000 acres on the Altamaha ,are threatened,
but not yet lost. In the immediate vicinity
of Charleston there has been no loss. It is be-
lieved that fully one-half of the rice product
of the state, or 5,000 barrels, has been lost.
THE UNPARALLELED DROUGHT
Prevailing in Western States—A “Dry
Spell" of Fourteen Months.
CHICAGO, Aug. 10.—Beviewing the drought
situation in Illinois, Indiana, Iowa and the
southern portions of Michigan and Wiscon-
sin, The Jom'nal says that the visitation to
which these territories have for fourteen
months been subject is one to which a
parallel cannot be found within the recollec-
tion of the oldest living inhabitant. So arid
a waste is there around Chicago that for
many miles in some directions not a spear of
grass is visible, and in [others the existence
of green vegetation is painfully minute._
In‘ many places the fields are abso-
lutely and hopelessly burned out. The
public parks are devastated with dryness.
Gram lands have probably suffered most.
, The destruction is not uniform, though
where crops were planted late in the season
the owners will probably not realize the cost
of planting. Where the seed was put into
the ground early enough, a somewhat less
disastrous result may be hoped for. Of
necessary food for live stock there will be an
appalling dearth, and thus the price of milk,
meat, butter, cheese and other farm products
may be expected to rise to an altogether un-
precedented height.
During the past fourteen months only
81.28 inches of rain have fallen in this neigh-
borhood. ‘
Imports of Iron and Steel.
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 11.—Tho Icon and
Steel Bulletin says the imports of iron and
steel during the fiscal year ending June 30
were greater than ever before. They were
100,000 tons greater than in 1885 and 1880
combined. The Bulletin sees no indication
of a cessation of importation, much as it re-
grets the fact. '
Judge \Voods' Position still Vacant.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 11.—The appointment
of the successor to the late Justice \Voods is
still a mooted question, and anything fresh
on the subject is eagerly sought. The latwl
announcement is that Judge Edward W. Pet-
:tns, of Alabama, was the coming man, but
no authority is given for the statement.
Mr. Mackay Insists on Lower Rates.
NEW YORK, Aug. ll.—It is reported that
before Mr. Mackay left for San Francisco he
informed the cable rate committee‘that if the
Gould rate was not restored to forty cent:
per word within two weeks the commercial
cable rate would be dropped from twenty.
five cents to twelve and a half cents.
Bunco Men Captured.
OSWEGO, N. Y., Aug. ll.-—Chief of Police
Grant brought to this city from Elmira last
night two bunco men, who are wanted for
practicing thelrarts upon an old man for
$1,200. Their names, as they gave them, are
James Burns and John Bowles, both pre
sumed to be New Yorkers.

READY FOR BUSINESS.
State Convention of the Union
Party at Rochester.
Bocans'rnn, N; Y., Aug. ll.—The Union
Labor- state convention was called- to order
st3o’clock yesterday afternoon by James
Abbott, of Elmira, chairman of the state
committee. The convention was held in
Kolb’s ball. A temporary organization was
effected by the selection of John Creighton
and P. J. McGuire as secretaries. Mr.
Abbott acted as temporary chairman. Com-
mittees on permanent organization, creden-
tials and resolutions were appointed, con-
sisting of one member from each congres-
sional district represented in the convention.
A recess of about one hour was then taken.
The report of the committee on creden—
was read upon reassembling. It showed 131
delegates present. Amajority of the dele-
gafeS'were from New York, Brooklyn and
vicinity.
The committee ,on permanent organization
reported the name of Hon. David Healy, of
King's county, for permanent chairman. Mr.
Healy was obliged to decline on account of
his newspaper work in the convention. J obn
J. J unid’, the veteran Syracuse Greenbacker,
was then elected. He was escorted to the
chair by Messrs. David Healy and George D.
Lennon. In his address Mr. J unio took
strong ground in favor of a protective tariff
levied upon the luxuries of life, and favored
the equality of gold, silver and paper as legal
tender. After listening to an address by
Miss Kate Feet, of Jamestown, the conven-
tion adjourned till to—day, when the report
of the committee on resolutions will be pre-
sented. A session has held last evening for
the purpose of hearing speeches by the
various delegates.
There was very little said last night regard-
ing the nominations for state offices. John G.
Caville, of Brooklyq is mentioned for treas-
urer. T, W. ,Knapp, of Steirben county, is
endeavoring to secure the nomination for
secretary of state, but will probably not suc-
ceed.
'UNFORTUNATE NANTICOKE
Labor
The Scene of Two More
Father and Son the Victims.
‘WIanssAnRa,,Pn.,‘ Aug. IL-The grand
tunnel mine at Nanticoke, operated by the
Susquehanna Coal company, was the scene
of two accidents yesterday, by one of which
Levi Davenport, aged 17, was killed, and by
the other Samuel Davenport, father of Levi,
was so terribly injured that his recovery is
not hoped for. Levi was a door tender and
at 10 o'clock yesterday morning, being re-'
lieved from his duty- in ,a distant
part of? the mine, attempted to jump
on a loaded car that was passing
along the gangway to ride to the foot of
the shaft. In some way he was thrown off
the car and it passed . .over him, cutting off
both legs and one arm, and crushing his
head. Death was instantaneous. 0a the
next Carriage that came out of the mine the
mangled form of Samuel Davenport, all
crushed and bleeding, though still living,
was brought to the surface and carried home
on a stretcher. He had been caught under a
fall of coal, had both legs broken and was
cut and bruised on the head, face, shoulders
and back. Hislab‘orer, {Mph Polski, was
also caught under the fall and severely hurt.

The’strikers attacked chamber of
the new men with clubs and stones, and the
latter fled. Only one of their number,
Jacob Hooley, fell into the strikers’ hands,
and he was beaten, kicked and left uncon-
scious. Thomas Viczik- and John Brantz
were arrested for bein implicated in the as-
sault, and were held for a hearing. The
strikers oplnly assert that they will get rid
of the new men. They came to the resolu-
tion three weeks ago to weed them out by
peaceable means if posible, and if that
failed then by force. Force will be used, it
is declared, until the new men are made to
believe that their lives are continually in
danger.
Death of Gen. Charles Hughes.
_ SANDY HILL, N. Y., Aug. 11.-Gen.
Charles Hughes died at 7 o’clock last even-
ing, aged 65. He had been insensible for
some hours, but, contrary to reports, he re-
tained his mental faculties until he died. He
represented the Twelfth district in congress
'in 1853 and 1854. He was clerk of the court
of appeals in 1859-60, and during the war
served as provost marshal of the Washington
district. Governor Tilden appointed him
judge advocate of his staff, and he was re-
tained in a similar position by Governor
Robinson. He was elected state senator in
1878, and served “1th honor to his con-
stitueacy.

McChesney asked for a tow. -While en-
deavoring to make fast to the raft the row-
boat was upset, and McChesney and his
nephew were drowned. The remains of the
uncle were soon recovered, but the boy’s
body has not yet been found.
Trouble at Chautauqua.
JAMEerWN, N. Y., Aug. ll.-—The annual
meeting of the Chautauqua Assembly asso-
ciation Tuesday broke up in a row between
the authorities of the association and the cot-
tage holders. The trouble grew over the re-
fusal of the presiding officer to permit a
cottage owner to vote in the annual election
because his name did not appear on the
books. The meeting broke up in great dis-
order.

Husband and \T’ife Drowned Together.
LAKE HorA'rcoxo, N. J., Aug. 11.—The
summer guests here have been greatly ex-
cited during the past few days over the
drowning of a man and his wife who had
been employed as hostler and laundress in
the Lake Hopstcong hotel. The couple went
out rowing on the. lake Sunday afternoon.
Tuesday afternoon John Goble found the.
boat capsized on the lake and the body of the
woman was found Tuesday. The body of
the man was picked up near Bertram’s
Island yesterday. F. Mast, proprietor of the
hotel, says he hired the couple at Castle
garden at the opening of the season. When
the couple went out on the 'lake the water
was placid, and how they capsized the boat
is a mystery.

NEW YORK, Aug. 11.-—Henry George said
to a reporter last evening: “The United

Asking for a Light.
Americans abroad who stop people in the
streets to ask for alight for their cigars are
more or less politely directed to the nearest
tobacco shop and advised to buyabox of

At the Cortlandt street ferry, last week, I
saw a man with a stump of a ci ar importan-
ing strangers for alight. The rst stranger
gave him a match, which blew out. The
second reluctantly handed him a freshly
lighted cigar, but the stump was ash-headed
and would not take the fire. The third
handed over his half smoked weed, shrugged
his shoulders and walked off. The applicant
had now 'incormnoded three persons and

' THE ANCIENT ROMANS.
Splendid and Costly Baths ltnpldly Mul-
tiply Throughout the City—Where the
Pretty Society “'omen Go to Take a
Merry Swim.
“Me tub is me second self,” a well known
lawyer said in the Hoffman house the othrr
night, “and one reason why I don‘t leave
New York and go with my family to the
mountains is simply because 1 cannot enjoy.
my bath as I do in town. I bath in ice cold
water all the year round, and I have never
had a cold or a sore throat since I began the
practice. in the country a man can never
gcta good bath when he wants it—bcforc
breakfast—and so he begins the day wrong. "
The bath has almost grown to the propor-
tions of a fad in New York. Apartments
without a :bathroom are not to be thought
of, and tubs are distributed through the
hotels in a fashion that would gratify the
spirit of the ancient Romans. Everywhere
the bath is the principal subject of talk in
renting flats or houses. Many a private res-
idence :in New York is embellished with a
bathroom that is modeled on the famous one
in the Vanderbilt mansion. I had the pleas-
ure, the other day, of looking over the cuts
that have been prepared for an article on
this subject for one of the magazines. The
article will probably appear within fifteen
years. There were twelve photographs of
the bathrooms in the houses of prominent
New Yorkers. Most of them were apart-
ments ten to fourteen feet square, 'with
the walls and ceilings of marble or
porcelain tiles, and the floora more or less
expensive mosaic. Light was admitted
through stained glass windows, and the bath
proper was a plunge of four or five feet deep,
andas many feet square, surrounded by a
bronze railing. Marble steps led down from
different sides, and the arrangements of the
faucets, showers, etc., were modeled on clas-
sical originals. Several of these bathrooms
represent in themselves an outlay of thou-
sands of dollars, and they put the primeval
tab to the blush.
Baths are building everywhere about town.
A new one, which will soon be thrown open,
is under the Produce exchange, and it is in
many respects one of the most costly bathing
places in the world. Several hundred thou-
sand dollars have already been spent Oil it.
Salt water is carried directly from the buy,
and is kept running through the bath con-
stantly. There are rooms where thirty at-
tendants are at hand to scrub, rub and dense
with alcohol the festive bathers. The main
tank is sixty feet one way by fifty the other,
and runs in depth from five to nine feet.
All along the riverfront, both in the East
and North rivers, the public baths are now
open, and in many places there are baths
established as business ventures in competition
with them. Baths of this description are
made of wood, and are nothing more or less
than huge hollow squares with a floor grat-
ing that keeps the bothers from going too
deep. They are floated near some pier, and
bathing suits, together with the privilege of
swimming for an hour, cost from fifteen to
twenty-five cents. All sorts and conditions
of men, boys and children attend them.
Certain hours are set aside for the bathers
of tho gentler sex. They are forced to wear
suits Of a regulation pattern, and it is neces-
sary to be very strict in the matter, for the
women are proverbially careless about con-
cealing their charms when men are not about.
Some of them swim in a fashion that would
astonish the professionals, and they (live off
the railings and play all sorts of pranks with
each other, precisely as schoolbeys do. I re-
member once haviug a look at a both when it
was occupied exclusively by women. A man
was going to buy the place and I went with
'llllil to look at it. He went over the estabv
lishrnent while Istared at the bathers with
unremitting industry. It was in one of the
poor wards of the town and most of the girls
were factory operatives and shop ernployes.
Many of them had brought old calico wrap-
pers with them to serve as bathing suits, but
the restrictions of the bath would not permit
this, and they were forced to wear more suit-
able costumes. The display of magnificently
proportioned figures and graceful outlines
would have driven Fifth avenue mad with
envy.
the vicinity of Fifth avenue several bathing
establishments which represent a, large out-
lay of capital, and which are patronized only
by people of high social pretensions. One of
them isin charge of an acute and shrewd
Swede, who says openly that he will not
allow any “middle class people” to visit his
place.
“I never touch anything,” he said to Inc
one day, composedly, “which is not of the
upper crust. Iinstrnct the aristocratic peo-
ple Of New York how to swim; I will not
hm‘eunything to do with the humbler ele-
ments of the town. This is partially because
I like it, and partially because a both that IS
run exclusively for the best class of society
will be liberally patronized. My place occu-
pies four cin lots, for which I paid $85,000
before I began to build. The expenses are
very large, as it is necessary to keep the pool
warm enough in winter to admit of bathing,
and all of the accessories are in good taste.”
This was true tour) eminent degree. Every-
thing that the water touched was marble or
silver, and the dressing rooms were models
of comfort and elegance. Illustrator! maga-
zines and papers were scattered about the
reading rooms and the attendants were all in
showy uniforms. There were probably half
a dozen ladies swimming at the time. They
wore very light and close fitting bathing
sails, and their instructors were women.
One of the swimmers was a society lady
whose face has been familiar to New Yorkers
at the opera and fashionable balls for several
seasons. She is u dainty little woman, with
a face as delicate as a cameo. flilll she has a
soft voice and a gentle manner. She I'eIIIiIuls
one of a nun, she is so quiet and chnuI'c.
Tue day that I glanced in .Ihc bath she was
just emerging from her dressing room. Illn-
trim figure was clad in a single garment that
looked as though it might have been made of
Turkish towcliug. She pattercd down the
walk on a run, scuddcd up the stops to a
springboard live or six feet above the wafer,
poised herself on the end a moment, and then
sprang in the air like a bird and dived out of
sight. Presently she came to the surface of
the water, ten or fifteen feet beyond, and
went splashing hand over bond to the steps.
Once there the scrambled to the walk again
and repeated her dive With a shriek of cxul-
tation that Could be heard all over the build-

The “1101c Table Sn-lckcrcd.
We noticed a dear little bride with shy eyes
that hardly dared lift themselves from the
tablecloth, and such a habit of blushing that
it even extended to the new husband some-
times and made him feeluncoml'ortahle, He
wasa gentlemanly young fellow, with Soft,
white hands, blondc mustache and that care-
fully groomed appearance that well kept New
York meri show. The couple had evidently
slipped down here to enjoy their honeymoon,
sure that none of their friends would find
them in such an out of the way place. They
were never out of each other’s sight for a
moment, and the struggle they had to keep
prying people at a distance was pathetic. A
sharp faced woman from New Egypt sat at
the same table'u'ith them. She had made up
her mind to get acquainted. The long suffer-
ing couple answered her questions in polite
Inonosyllables and turned away. Still she
persisted. The talk ran somewhat like this;
“Live in York?" she asked,
“Yes,” said he very quietly.
“In business there 1" she persisted.
“Yes,” in a. still lower tone.
“Been there long?”
“Yes.”
“What do you do for a living?”
“I drive a coal cart,” very quietly and dis-
tinctly. ,
This was too much for even her case hard-
ened feelings and she turned with asnif! of
disgust. Even her dull comprehension could
grasp the fact that the soft handed gentle-
man did not get his living that way. The
whole table snickered, and for the remainder
of their stay this bride and groom at least
were let alone.—Cor.'New York World.
An Old Man’s \Vit.
“Women don’t always have their wits
about them,” said an elderly gentleman the
other'morniug. “A lady friend of urine came
into my olllce with her little girl of 5. The
pretty white dress of the latter had a streak
of blood upon it, the result of a visit to a
dentist. The mother didn’t want to return
uptown with the child, as she was not through
with her shopping. Could I help her out of
her quandary} I took the child back to the
toilet room, with the idea of washing out the
stain, but a better plan occurred to me. The
stain was along, narrow, downward streak,
and the white dress was pleatedup and down.
What do you think I did? I folded over one
of the pleats and pinned it, thus hiding the
stain from view. The mother asked: ‘Why,
how did you remove the stain without spread-
ing it and taking the starch outl’ Then I
showed her that it was still there. Her look
was one of pleasure and chagrin. 'I must
confess that you didn’t help to raise your
family in vain; she said, ‘while you must
think I am excessively stupid. And I Inn-
for the plan ought to have suggested itself to
me.’ ”—Philadclphia Call.

Antidote for Germs and Fungi.
Dr. A. B. Griffiths, an English physi-
cian, has just published a communication
which is of great importance to horticultur-
ists and agriculturists. Ho demonstrates
Hiat iron sulphate is an antidote for many of
the most virulent epidemics which attack field
and garden crops. These diseases are due to
microscopic funguses, whose struétures are
built up in a somewhat different manner to-
the corresponding parts in other plants. It
appears that the cellulose in these f unguses is
acted upon by iron sulphate, whereas in the
higher plants the cellulose of the cell walls is
not influenced. The iron sulphate destroys
the cellulose of the funguses, but does not af-
fect that of the attacked plant. It is, there.
fore, an antidote and destroyer of such para-
sitic germs and fungusesas the potato dis-
ease, wheat mildew, etc—Frank Leslie’s.
Food of Our Childhood.
“Given your order, sir?” inquired a waiter
at one of the down town lunch counters the
other day of a customer. "The food of our
childhood, please,” was the rather mysterious
and sentcntious reply. The next moment the
gentleman was tcaringnhnlf loaf of bread
into shreds and depositing the pieces in a
huge bowl of" milk. The charge for this is
twelve cents, and the waiter explained that
there was :1 pretty good run on the dish daily.
A side issue, not nearly so often called for, is
dubbed the “grub of our duddies,”und con-
sists of milk and InuslI.——Philadelphia Call.
