Spokane Falls is burned te the ground by
the flre which started last night. Details of
the destruction wcre hard te obtain this

here. They report the telegtaph olllee in
Spekane as having been swept out of ex
istence. Every effort was being made,
they stated, te restore communlci.t'en, but
when success would be attained they could
net say.

The quiet village of Halfville, between
Pcuuville and IJtltz,was thrown into great
excitement en Saturday afternoon by a
torrlble accident. Tlie parties te it aie tlie
honef Aitdrew Dembach, farmer, and the
daughter of Andiew Cenrad.
Neither of the children is seven years.
Their parents tire neighbors and elesi
fiicnds. On Satin day afternoon these chil
dren woie playing in mi upper room of the
Cenrad residence. In a corner tlieie was a
leaded shotgun. Little Dembach in play
picked up the gun and pointed it at tlie
Cenrad gill. Unconsciously his finger
touched tlie tiiggurand it went oil'.
Tlie contents Mi uck tlie girl In tlie face,
nearly all the shot entering her eye. The
discharge of the gun was heaid by Mrs.
Cenrad, and she suspecting something
wrong, hurriedly ran up stairs.
Sbe found her child en tlie fleer and the
boy almost scaled te death.
Dr. Hertz, of Lexington, was summoned
and he dressed the girl's wounds. She is
still living this morning, but no hopes are
entertained of her recovery.
Tlie accident has cast a gloom ever that
entire neighborhood. Had the parents of
this girl put tlm gun beyond the reach of
the childicn the tragedy would net Inn e
occurred.

Since tlie return of Senater Cameren tlie
rival aspirants for tlie collectershlp of
internal loveuueof tlie Lancaster district
have been displaying considerable activity
in getting their jiapeis bcfoie tlie tecretaiy
of the treasury. It was well understood
when the rfiiladclpliia, Pittsburg and
Wllkesbaire appointments w ere made that
Lancaster should remain undisturbed
until after the senator had get back
from Lureie. The sail cause of his
sudden return is no obstacle te the local
upheaval which is going en among the Im Im
castcrceuntj s)lilicians. It Is intimated
hi elllclal quarters that all tlie papers are
new in thesccictarv's eHiec, subject te the
preliminary question as te whether Mr.
IlcnseP fragmentary term shall be can led
forward te the four-year limit or whether
he shall slmplj l jiermitted te complete
the term of Mr. MacOenigle, whose death
occurred when he hail been in olllee a llttle
ever three years. Had Mi. MacOenigle
lived the four years from the time he took
charge would have explicit lnt.t June. Mr.
Hansel began duty about tlie end if

The
Actives Prevent Thein Scoring n
Run en Saturday.
On Saturday afternoon the Actives and
August Flower, two clubs of this city,
played a game en the Ironsides grounds.
The teams represent the eastern and
western sections of the city, and there was
considerable, rivalry between them. The
result was a disastrous defeat for the
pcople from the eastern end.
The feature of tlie game was the
line battery work or Snyder and Resh, of
tlie Actives. Hogarth also pitched well,
but seemed te fear seme of tlie Active '
hard hitters, as five of thorn were given
tlieir bases en balls. Only seven of the
August Flowers reached first, and only
one get as far as third. Rut seven men
went te bat In the first two Innings and
only nine went te bat in the last three.
Resh was a stene wall and his throwing
was superb. The score fellows :

An Account of Ills Career.
Jehn T. Stains died suddenly at tlie
resldcucoef Edward Hetalllck, his brother
I iii-law, en Seuth Frlnce street, at 5 o'clock
this morning.
Stains lived In this city until March last,
when he rcnioted te licbauen. He has
been drinking te excess for several weeks.
On Friday with bis wife and youngest child
he came te Lancaster te visit Ids brother-in-law.
He was around town en Friday night
and all day Saturday, drinking freely. He
rpmalned at Retalllck's en Sunday and was
In bed nearly all day. About neon he said
he was doue drinking whisky. It was his
custom when he wanted te get sober te use
chloral or laudanum. Yesterday he used
laudanum, and In a short time he com
plained of being very sick. Ills condition
was reported te Dr. J. W. Hess and he
promptly prescribed for Stains. At an
early hour this morning Dr. Hess was sent
for, the messenger stating that Mr. Stilus
was in a critical condition. The doctor

death, and he empanelled as his jury te
held the inquest : Harry L. Trout, C. C.
CarKinter, Christ A. Gast, James A. Miller,
I. D. Sprcngcr and Geerge Richardson.
The testimony taken shows that It was a
dollberale case" of suicide. On Sunday
morning he drank a quart of whisky, and
about neon ha said he was doue drinking
whisky. He scut for seme laudanum, and
his wlfe gave him a teaspoon of that drug.
That made him sick, and later in the after
noon, in tlie absence of Ids wifb from the
room, he drank all that remained In the
laudanum bottle, about thrce ounces.
The verdict of the jury was that death

llurlat or Veterans In Philadelphia
The exiosure by the m:t,MUKm:KU of
the gross frauds in the burial of indigent
veterans in this county has attracted at
tention throughout the state mid In nit
quarters Grand Army men and ethers are
moving for the discovery of similar frauds
in veteran burials. .The Philadelphia
llecertl publishes a long list ofthe veterans
who have been buried at Philadelphia in
the past thrce and n half years and a scru
tiny of this list by the friends and rela
tives of the dead soldiers may bring out
seme startling facts. The llecertl says that
it Is believed that in many cases where
friends and relatives have paid for funerals
the thlrty-flve dollars authorized te be
awarded for the burial of Indigent veterans
has been collected from the county.
The Interments are under the charge of
the county commissioners, who dlsburse
the money. The commissioners appoint
three persons in each ward of tlie city, and
these persons deslgnate the undertaker te
licrferm the work of biulal. It rests en
tirely upon" the recommendation of this
committee whether the county is made te
pay the costs of the funeral, the aggregate
thus far paid out excecdlng $12,(100.

Ellzit Flyuii In Trouble.
Eliza Flynu is a well-known old diame
ter who has figured qiilte extensively in
the h)1Ice courts during the past few years.
Fondness for drink is her great weakness,
and that Is what has lauded her in the
hands ofthe police se often. On Satuntay
she w as arrcsted en a mere serious charge.
A woman entered the yard of Christian
Sharp, who resides en 'West Vine stieef,
near St. Mary's church, and stule a lady's
very line skirt, which was lying en the
grass. A description el tlie woman was
given te Constable Eicholtz,' who at ence

Selling Ileer Ify Weight.
Some of the wholesale liquor dealers of
Pittsburg have resettcd te a new dedge te
defeat tlie law, and are selling beer by
weight. Fer Instance, If a person calls for
less than a quart, which is the smallest
quantity they are allowed te sell, they
weigh the desired amount, and they can
triilhluliy say they never soil les measure
than a quart. They claim they de net In

There have been several very htavy
rains during the past two days, although It
was bollcved by many that the bottom had
fallen out of the clouds by the cud of last
week and there was no mero rain te be
hud. This was a mistake.
On Hat unlay afternoon there was a very
heavy rain in the northern and eastern
parts ofthe county.
In the neighborhood of Eden there was a
very heavy fall of hall In the storm that
visited that place about 3 o'clock Saturday
afternoon. Some ofthe stones were almost
as large os walnuts and In seme places
they could be shovelod up. The heavy
fall of hall did noteeer an extensive area,
but It did a great amount of damage, and
tobacco and corn worn cut le pieces.
At Ncffsvllle the hail fall W.as light, and
little damage Mas doue by it. AtSchoeneck
and Farmersvlile there was seme hall, and
oue ofthe heaviest rain storms et this year,
and there has been quite a number of them.

heavy storm, which was luvemimnlcd by

and entirely destroyed. The building,
which wits new, was about 00x40
feet in size. The llre was discovered
about thrce o'clock. Mr. Martin's family
were awakened by tlie bright light

The neighbors seen gathered in gieat num
bers, and they succeeded In saving atl of
the stock and ene wagon. The ether con
tents wero burned, consisting of ene wagon,
two plows, it harrow, and ether farming
implements, besides all the hay, straw and
grain. The building was Insured in tlie
West Earl eeniany, of which Mr. Martin
is ene of the directors, but that amount

David Martin, another farmer, lives at
Grott'dale mills, about a half mile from the
burned bam. He had three colts in a Held
at the time of tlie storm, and two of them

The sreue of the trouble was thn home of
Hube Furrcll, whero n series of Saturdey

Twenty ceuples from Walten, Crittenden
and Cincinnati wcre crowded Inte n small
room. There was an abundance of bad
whisky, mid the crowd about midnight
bocame drunk and boisterous. Twe Cin
cinnati women named Williams and Mit
chell, Iteth bad characters, started the row.
Thry had an old grudge against each ethor,
and the Williams women in tlie
midst or the festlvltles plunged a
knlfe into her rival's shoulder. The
Mitchell woman retaliated with a
razor, cutting two terrlhle gashes In tlie
breast and arm or Mrs. Williams. At this
H)lnt Malluda Hawkins, a colored woman
reilillug In Crittenden, entered the room
and fired two shots at Mattie Crltchlleld.it
slstir-indaw or Mrs. Mltehell. Then the
right bocame general. Everybody In the
room used a knife, razor or revolver, anil
for ten minutes there was the v. lldest kind
et excitement. The lloerwascovoied with
bleed and Injured men and women.
The vthlle Heplo in the vicinity were
afraid te approach the place whlle the

that most of the sheeting and cutting was
done by the Hawkins woman and Gcoire
Williams, both of Crittenden. Ills known
that half a dozen ethers were mere or less
hurt, and the latest from the scene Is that
five, and possibly six, will die.
A ponse has goue after Mrs. Hawkins
