A Destructive Fire Among the Docks
of New York City.
New York, November 6. —A very
destructive fire occurred iu Hobokeu
afternoou, totally destroying what
was known as Eagle dock, owned by
the Hoboken dock company, of Ham
burg, and leased by the Eagle steam
ship companies, also two full cargoes
of merchandise, one just unloaded
from the Wilson line steamer Rial to,
plying between Hoboken and Hull.
England, the other in readiness fur a
National Hue steamer to sail In a few
for London and Liverpool. Most
of the merchandise, including a large
tjunutity of steel rails ami cotton was
owned by New York merchants. The
dock is fully insured. It was con
structed two years ago at a cost of
$250,000. Several cargoes and light
ers lying in close proxiiuily to the fire
were destroyed, flie steamship Rial
to had a uarrow escape and but for
the arrival of a tug would have becu
destroyed. Her rigging caught fire
iu several places. She was hauled
into the stream ami auchnred. The
excursion steamer Plymouth Ruck, iu
% winter quarters in the vicinity, caught
fire in several places, but was extin
guished, and she escaped with trilling
mjury.
The origin of the fire is attributed j
to the drippings from an oil torch used
by a watchman to light the dock.
Owing to ill feeling between the Ho
boken firemen ami the city authorities
on account of a failure of the latter to
furnish supplies, the fire department
did not turnout until the mayor had
given them certain guarantees. They
reached the fire an hour after it star- ;
ted. Iu the meantime the New York
and Jersey City department had re
sponds d to an appeal from the mayor
of Hoi okeu for aid.
£lght Huudretl Marriageable Girls
* Wanted.
Woodstock Di'pnt b b> U>. Chtcaco Triboao.
In order to accommodate the eight
hundred bachelors who are said to be
under the care of a single Presbyteri
an Superintendent of Missions in Man
itoba and the Northwest, the editor of
the Woodstock, Connecticut, ijentinal
proposes, with all seriousness, to get
up a huge excursion of marriageable
girls from Ontario to proceed early
next spring to the prairie province.
The enterprise is to be under proper
and rmpuUHible management. '1 he
editor goes on to say there should not
, be much difficulty in securing the re- !
' quisite number of volunteers for a re
ally patriotic expedition of the kind.
If any humanitarian feels interested in
this scheme for the alleviation of the
loneliuess of the eight hundred or
phans, he is invited to correspond
with the yffice of the Sentinel. To that
end applications will he reoeived until
the Ist of April next at the office.
Ralsiag Hair by the Crop.
From a Pari* Fnhioa Lrtt.r.
Thousands of girls in Switzerland,
Germany aud Norway devote tbem
| selves to the cultivation of their hair
' as resolutely as a farmer does his
r crops. Once a year the merchant,
very often an old woman, arrives in
the village aud a brisk trade is car
| ried on. The Swiss girls make the
t most, as nature has bestowed on them
an abundant crop of the blonde color,
! which is hardest of all to obtain, and
I the climate is evidently propitious to
its growth. The price obtained de
pends upon the length of the redund
ant tresses. Hair eight inchea long
ia worth twenty-five cents an ounce,
while that thirty-six inches in length
will bring the fortunate possessor $8
an ounce, and in cases of exceptional
beauty and thickness even $35 an
ounce may be realized.
Progress of the Mo4ses.
P Fron tb. WntCkOTter (Pa.) Bnrertl.
It is a curious and interesting fact
that the remnant of the band of Mo
doc Indians, now established in the
Indian Territory, has taken very kind
ly to the teaching and assistance offer
ed them by the Friends. Some of the
agents and missionary laborers of this
religious body have been laboring
among them with great success, and
, have actually established a meeting
for worship after the Friends' Order,
which the Modocs regularly take part
in. Last week six of the lads of the
tribe arrived in Philadelphia, having
left Fort Laramie on Monday to be
placed at the Emlen School, an insti
tution in Montgomery county con
i ducted by the Friends, for the purpose
of receiving an education.
Billiard Playing Held to be Gambling.
In Di a nopolis, Nov. o.—The Bu
_ pre me Court baa decided that playing
niUiarda or pool, where the loser pars
for the games, ia gambling, and the
proprietor is liable for keeping a gam
bling bouse. The decision is based
on the theory that the hire of the ta
ble, which is the amount charged for
the games, is wagered on the skill of
the plavers, and, en considered, there
is no difference between that and any
other wagering of money. The decis
ion is a radical one.
