* HUNDREDS DROWNED. The Steamer Namchow Sinks With All on Boarl. A Terrible Panic and Fight Among Chinese Coolies, A eablegram from London, England, says: A despatch from Hong Kong, China, says the steamship Meifoo has brought the news of the wreck of the steamer Namohow, From the few details it is learned that the propeller shaft of the Namchow snapped in two while that vessel was plunging in a heavy sea, the regulators not having power enongh to vontrol the shaft while the propeller was whirling out of water during a head plunge. When the shaft carried away the sea rushed into the shaft alley, which, with that part of the stern of the vessel from which the shaft protuded, was badly damaged by the accident. The water quickly made its way into the hold; the stear: pumps were put to work, but the fires of the engine room being extinguished by the rising water, they were soon useless, and the Namchow began to settle down, When the tirst signs of danger became known there was a terrible panic among the JU or 400 Chinese passengers on board, The officers did everything possible to allay the fens of the passengers,but the Chinese acted nore like a | if raving maniacs let than like human beings in their senses Fuey crowded into the boats, and so ham- sred the officers and crew in taeir efforts to OWer them that it was soon seen that escape by that means was an impossibility, The panic-stricken Chiness were not to be cowed to order even by the pistols of the officers and the steamship went down with the Chinese and few Europeans battling des- perateiy for possession of tae boats, for the Bfeboats, for spare spars, or other means o safety, Several of the boats, partly lowerad, wera overturned, as the vessel was sinking, by the Crow: who had for their way nt Several Chinese and Europeans rted to have been Killed Knifes shots during this horrible ! time after the around the fairiy alive attempting to Here and thera »s of wreckage Chinese and Euro- t ra time, 008% ff Calnese em, Dy tor lite.

A Mexican Volcano Hurls Stones a Distance of Four Miles, The Volcano de Faego, known as Colima, in the southern part of Jalisco, Mexico, is sgain active. Explosions occur frequently. These have not occurred before during the activity of the voleano., Viewed from a dis- tance at night the scone Isa grand one, but those in the vicinity of the flery mountain have little regard for its beauty or its gran deur, The explosions are of such fores that large stones have béden hurled a distance of four miles. Ashes from the mountains have fallen in the streets of Colima and Zapotian, Persons living near the voleano are frightened, and if the eruptions continues there may be a panic among them.

The beasts were encotiiiered early in the after. noon, much to the sorrow of both hunters and hounds, The fight was kept up untll dark, with the result that seven of the hunters were danger. ously injured, at least two of them tataily, and that nine of the hounds are dead.

To understand fully read from chapter xxxvi, 1, and also the parsiivi accounts in {1 Kings xvill,, xix; ll Chron, xxxii 15. “And Hezekiah prayed unto the Lord, saying:” In Hl Chron. xxxii,, 20, it ix written that Isaiab, the prophet, joined him in this prayer.

To know God is Life Eternal not to know Him is Eternal Death, The long suffering of God is one of the most wonderful things in the whole Bible: how slow He is to let His wrath fall, and bow in every possible way He pleads with men to repent! Read in Job xxxiil, 14-30, how He seeks to deliver the sinner from the wrath to come; and notice sspecial- iy verses 20, 30, “So all these things worketh God oftimes with man, to bring back the soul from the pit to be enlightensad with the light of the living." Notice also that the awful judgments recorded in Hevelations as yet to come upon men have for their end that men may repent, In one we read of men vn earth being given a taste of the torments of hell if perchance they may turn to God and escape etoroal torment (Rev, ix, 20, 21; xvi, ® 11.
