Crazed by Religion He Tries to Crus cliy His Som, but is Fortunately Prevented=Eiis Daughter Likely to Die, Erx, Pa., Bept. 8.—The eastern part of this county is intensely excited over the ac- tions of a man crazed by religion. Some months ago Sylvester Knott, a well-to-do farmer living in a comparatively isolated spot on the shore of Lake Erie, attended a meeting of the Salvation Army at Frank- lin. He became very much excited, and finally insane. For two weeks past he has wandered up and down the shore, declaiming on religious themes, picuring the horrors of the judgment day, and calling upon sinners to worship God or be eternally lost, He planted a large cross in the woods on which to nail his eight-year old son, believing the boy would be tormented in hell fire for- ever unless he died the death of the Saviour, With almost superhuman strength Knott held the lad firmly while driving a large nail through the little fellow’s hand, perfectly re- gardless of his piteous cries for mercy. The dreadful work was interrupted by some wood cutters who happened to be passing. Leaving his son hanging, the maniac fled, first striking down oue of the rescuers with a hammer, He leaped inoo the lake, and as the search for him proved fruitless it was thought that he bad been drowned. This was not the case, however, Before might the crazy man re turned, smashed in the door of his house and knocked Mrs. Knott insenssble at a single blow, Entering a chamber in which his only daughter—Minnie, a girl of seventeen—Ilay asleep, he bound her hand and foot and car- ried her to a lonely place in the forrest, where hundreds of cords of wood were piled. An altar were quickly built, and upon it the madman secured his child, * Even as Abra- ham did with Isaac, will 1 offer you as a burnt offering unto God,” chanted the mad- man, setting the funeral pyre on fire. The flames soon reached the limbs of the girl, whose shrieks of agony and prayers for a more merctful death were music to mad man’s ears. Dancing around the heap on which lay the girl, he implored the Almighty to accept the sacrifice as attonement for the sinful deeds committed by him in past years. He added fresh fuel to the altar, But help arrived in time to prevent the consummation of the fearful design. Two young men cross ing the woods on their way home from a party saw a bright light, and heard the young woman's screams. One felled the father while his companion scattered the blazing wood and liftedlthe girl from her flery bed, The cords that bound her limbs were trans ferred to those of the unconscious maniac, Miss Knott's legs are badly burned, and there are large blisters on her shoulders, arms and sides. So awful was her experience that the doors of an asylum may open to admit the daughter as well as the father. She raves night and day, and it is feared her reason is permanently dethroned. Ten Thousand People Drowned, Tue HAGUE, Sept 5.—The Governor of the Dutch East Indies telegraphs that the town of Telokelong was probably totally destroyed by the volcanic eruption. The district in which that town is situated is entirely inac cessible, as all the roads have been obliter ated. Nothing has been heard from Lam. pong, on the southern coast of Sumatra. Some of the lighthouses in the straits are standing, but the lights are extinct. The re port of the destruction of Tjiringine by the tidal wave and the drowning of 10,000 people there is confirmed. ‘A BIG BLAZE. Baltimore Monastery RBurned While a Falr is In Progress, Bavriwone, Sept. 7.—8t Joseph's Passion ist Monastery, a large granite building on the Frederick road, about three and a half miles from the city limits, is now a smoking ruin. A fire broke out in the luilding during the progress of a fair which was being held there for the benefit of the church attached to the monastery. Beside the inmates of the A indescribable confusion followed the alarm. The fire spread rapidly, being fed by in flammable material, and was soon beyond the control of those who attempted to quell it with the insufficient means at band Dispatches were sent to this city asking for aid, and fire engines were sent out, but before they could reach the monastery the flames had done their work of destruction The interior of the building was: almost totally destroyed, the fire as it swept from soom to room, carrying everything before it The rooms in which the fair was being held contained a large quantity of articles of all sorts, some of them bulky, which bad been contributed by friends of the institution. There were many donations from Baltimore, various merchants having contributed sets of furniture, sewing machines, and almost all kinds of articles used in housekeeping. The building is a massive structure, its dimensions being 60x250 feet. It cost $150,000, The loss by the fire will, it is estimated, amount to over $100,000, A 215,000 Fire in Newark, Newark, N.

It is understood that from some trivial cause the engagement was broken off. In the afternoon Miss Hopkins was walking with a young man at this place, when she was seen by Hall. He fell back from the path, and simply glanced at them. Cutting a beavy club, he skulked behind them till the young man left the girl near her gate, Hall then rushed upon her, and felled her to the ground with the club, fracturing ber skull and other. wise injuring her. She begged piteously for ber life, but her appeals seemed to infuriate him the more, and he only stopped when she was unable to cry longer, She is still linger. Stephen J.
