SOME STABTLING FIGURES,
Big Winnings Dnring the Tarf Season Jnst
Knrtcd at Sew Tork.
Ivnw; York, Oct. 16. The racing season
ended yesterday at Morris Park. It would
have made our grandfathers stare to look at
some of these figures: J. A and A. H.
Morris leads the list with a total of 5154,480,
which was won for them by 24 race horses.
Michael F. Dwyer is only a step below them
w ith ?143,205, although he had only 12 in
his stable.
One race horse, His Highness, won the
enormous sum of 5100,325. Fifteen years
ago managers of a racing association giving
away so much money would have been con
sidered lunatics. Sensation, the marvel of
his decade, did not win the fourth part ot
it Tremont, whose fame is still green,
won hardly a third of it, although like
Sensation, he never los a race. This only
shows the extraordinary growth of the
American turf. It is worthy of note that
owners of iotir racing stables have won
more than $100,000. and that ten have won
more than $40,000
Longstreet is probably the greatest thor
oughbred this generation has seen. He
easily leads the all-acre division. Tenny was
a failure, although he won the Brooklyn
Handicip. Althouch Potomac ran few races
because of his broken hoof, he is credited
with $35,943.

The ATlrard of the Cne Leaves Chicago for
the Big Contest.
Chicago, Oct 10. Jacob Schaefer, the
world's champion at billiards, left to-night
for Cincinnati, thence he will journey to
New York, reaching there Sunday, to en
gage in a match October 26 with George F.
Slosson. Schaefer is in the finest form of
his life, and feels confident of retaining his
supremacy over all experts. For some un
accountable reason the local papers have of
late quite ignored the practice games of the
champion. To reassure the countless per
sonal friends of Schaefer it need only be
stated that recently he scored such perform
ances as 300 points in six innings at the 14
inch balk line and 500 points in seven inn
ings. Eugene Carter was his opponent in
the last-mentioned game, but was com
pletely smothered by such r. ns as 172 and
277.
For months Schaefer has led the qnietest
kind of a life and to-day is physically up to
the highest notch. There is no betting on
the coming match, simply because no Slos-
son money is ottered.

OHIO'S LAST WRECK.
It Happens on the Panhandle Road,
at Mingo, Near Steubenvillc.
TWO TRAINMEN BDENEDTO DEATH.
Wedged in a Bapgage Car They Meet Their
Fate in Sight of All.
MINOR NEWS PROM THE THREE STATES
Stecreka'ille, Oct. 16. The heavy fog
that ov:rhung the Ohio river bottom was
the cause of an awful accident, on the Pan
handle at Mingo at 5 o'clock Friday morn
ing, in which two men met the most hor
rible death t! at man can suffer, being
burned to ashes in the sight of aid that
could not release them from their fate.
Aside from these two deaths the casualties
were immaterial, five persons being'slightly
injured.
The first section of Panhandle passenger
Ko. 2, eastbound, Paul Bhodes, of Colum
bus, conductor, and David Obeny, of Pitts
burg, engineer, collided with a westbound
freight on what is known as the gauntlet,
one-half mile west of Mingo. At this point
the space is too narrow for a full double
track, and the inside rails are so close to
gether that trains never pass, but are run
by electric signals. There is also a cross
over switch for the bridge, which has but
three rails on it. This morning the con
ductoz and engineer of the eastbound pas
senger train said the signal was for them to
go ahead, while the mau who has charge of
the tower declares that the signals were all
right for the freight to move.
THE MOMENT OP THE CRASH.
However, this all may be, both trains-ran
on, both running on the gauntlet, and they
came together with a crash. The engine
and two gondola cars on the freight were
smashed into smithereens and took fire. The
engine, baggage, express and postal cars on
the passenger were also crushed and all
piled up in an awful wreck. The remainder
of the passenger train was made up of two
postal and vestibuled sleeping cars, and the
passengers in them scarcely felt the shock
of the collision. The engineers and firemen
jumped and all escaped injury.
The men burned to death were AVilliam
Marshall, passe 'ger brakeman, and Joseph
A'cstncr, an express messenger, both of
Columbus. Marshall was in the baggage
compartment and ATestner was in the ex
press compartment. They were both so
wedged in that jt wns absolutely impossible
for them to get out and they were burned
in sight of fellow men, whose every effort
availed naught.
As soon as possible after the accident the
door ot" the express car was broken open,
but the passage was blocked by piles of
boxes wedged so tightly and about Aestner
that they could not be got out, and while
the men still worked the car was fast being
consumed by the fire.
FIRE DOES ITS AVORIt.
Almost as soon as the doors were broken
open the whole inside of the car was a mass
of flames, and the work of destruction of
life and property was completed in a few
minutes. The heat was so intense that it
was at risk of life to go near the car.
The baggage, mail and express was all
bnrned, including 23 bags of mail, three of
which were registered ietters. Otlis Yar
nell, a postal "clerk of this city, was de
failed to take charge of the mail saved f'om
the fi"-5, there being several sacks intact
and a number only partially burned.
The wreck was on the scene of the terri
ble collision in August, 1878, when a west
bound passenger and an east-bound freight
collided with terrible execution, 14 persons
being killed outright and one of the 40 in
jured dying shortly afterward. It was also
near here that A'ice President McCullough
and John G. Saxe, the poet, were injured in
the winter of 1875. Saxe was so seriously
hurt that he finally died of his injury.

A Girlish Romance Cnt Short.
Newark, O., Oct. 16. Special.' An
affectionate meeting took place here to-day
at the Baltimore and Ohio depot between
two sisters named Armstrong, of Belleville,
this county. The youngest of the two,
Lillie, rather good looking and inexperi
enced, had just arrived home after having
been enticed away by a mail clerk named
Phillips on the promise to wed her. He
got her to go to Chicago and while there
spent all his money, and when that was out
he took what little "she had and then left her
a stranger in a strange city. She found her
way to this city in the hope of catching
him. Failing, she notified her family of
her troubles, and her sister arrived a few
days ago to take her home. Superintendent
Burt, of the Railway Mail Service, at once
suspended the gay deceiver. He will prob
ably be arrested.

PBESBYTEBIANS AT SCBANI0N.
The Synod of the Churches In Pennsylvania
and AVest Virginia.
SCRANTON, Oct 15. Special. At the
Synod of the Presbyterian Churches of
Pennsylvania and AVest Virginia in this
city to-day the complaint of Rev. T. H.
Nimmo against the Pennsylvania North
Presbytery, and the complaint of Charles E.
Craven against the Chester Presbytery,
were referred to the Judiciary Committee.
Reports were heard from the colleges. A
motion was made that the Synod attend the
installation of Dr. AVarfield as President
of the Lafayette College in a body, but
there was opposition to this, and the ques
tion was relerrea.
The Committee on Ministerial Snstenta
tion estimates that from $7,500 to $8,000 will
be required to pay the debts and relieve
ministers who have npplie,d for help, but
who have not been considered owing to the
lack of funds. One hundred and thirteen
churches were supplied with pastors
through the instrumentality of the commit
tee, and 1,103 persons were added to the
Church through the same channel. To sat
isfy the appeals for next year it is esti
matcd that $17,000 will be needed. The
committee recommended that a woman's
auxiliary be organized to co-operate with
the committee in the work of raising this
amount. Rev. J. M. McJunkin, of Pitts
burg, Corresponding Secretary of the Stis
tentation Committee, reported that in the
fiscal year 1880-00 94 applications had been
made for the relief and that $18,393 had
been granted to aid needy churches. On
October 1, 1891, orders amounting to
$4,516 25 remained unpaid in the hands of
Treasurer.
QUESTIONS RAISED BY THE FLOOD.
Tho Heirship of an Kstate in Johnstown a
Hard Legal Nat to Crack.
Johnstown, Oct. 16. Special An
other peculiar question growing out of the
flood comes in the final settlement of the
Catharine Hoffman estate here. Mrs. Hoff
man owned property in her own name
which had been willed to her by her husband
and was worth about $4,000. In the flood
she and her five children were drowned.
The administrator has not settled the estate
and the question as to who is to get the
money is now before the Auditor.
The questions arising here are different
from any heretofore growing out of the
flood. The heirs of Mrs. Hoffman and
those of her children claim the money, but
there are no direct heirs on cither side, the
claimants being only what the law calls
collateral heirs. The question of the dis
position of the property is whether Mrs.
Hoffman or her children died first. Of
course, if the children died first the money
will go to the heirs of the woman, while
the contrary would be the case if any one
ot the children survived her for but a
moment. The principle in law, that the
strongest is supposed to survive the longer
in a common disaster, is hard to apply here.
Charley, the oldest of the boys, was 17
years of age, and th attorneys naturally
argue that he would survive his mothe'r.
Direct evidence will also be offered as to
the relative time of their deaths by persons
who saw them in the flood and saw some of
them die.

Mansfield, Pa., Oct. 16. Special.

THE KANGAROO SHOE.
If It Would Take Follsh It Would Be Per
fectSome Other Leathers.
St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
The kangaroo shoe of the present is a very
different article from that of a few years
ago. Formerly the kangaroo leather would
crack with a few weeks' wear, but a secret
improvement in the process of tanning has
made it as durable as the finest calf. It is
as soft to the foot as porpoise leather, but
still retains its shape, which the latter
never does. Porpoise leather shoes will
wear as long as alligator hide, but the por
poise skin is so full of oil that it soils the
stockings, and stretches so abominably that
the shoes never hold their shape.
A pair of porpoise leather shoe strings
will stretch six inches, and shoes made of
the leather, with a week's wear, will be as
fiat and flabby as a tramp's brogans. Only
one improvement is necessary to make the
kangaroo a perfect leather. At present it
will not take polish, and when its manu
facture is improved so that it will polish
like calfskin nothing will equal it.
A'inegar as a Medicine.
A'inegar is regarded by Dr. S. J. Bum

catarrhal and membraneous croup. Em
ployed in the form of inhalation, it is, he
considers, of first importance in the manage
ment of the disease, though he also employs
internal medication. His method of pro
cedure in cases of inhalation is to pour the
vinegar into a pan, au& then put in the pan
bricks or flat irons heated in the stove. The
room thus soon becomes filled with a cloud
of acetic vapor. A German doctor reports
the use of etherization with good results in
the case of a child, aged 13 months, who

THE HIGHEST FALLS.
Explorer Bryant Returns From His
Expedition to Labrador.
HE SAW A MAMMOTH CATARACT.
The Story Told of a Difficult Trip
Eeirarded.
Well
WONDERS OP THE ROCKY PENINSULA
Philadelphia, Oct 16. Mr. Henry G.
Bryant, of Ko. 1227 North Broad street, ar
rived home yesterday from a trip of ex
ploration to Labrador, by which he has
successfully settled the vague theories that
have been afloat in regard to the Falls of
the Grand river a stream that flows from
the vast tablelands ot the interior, discharg
ing itself into the head of Hamilton Inlet
Mr. Bryant has accurately measured the
Grand River Fall and has proved it the
largest in the world. It has a drop at its
highest point of 316 feet, thus exceeding
Niagara by 152 feet.
Mr. Bryant, who is a lawyer by profession
and an ardent sportsman and traveler, some
time ago read a fugitive newspaper article
in regard to the Falls. In 1888 Mr. R. F.
Holme, a young Englishman, attempted to
reach them, and failed through want of pro
visions. Mr. Bryant heard of this, and, his
curiosity excited, decided that he, too,
would make the attempt He succeeded,
although previous to last summer the falls
had been seen by only tw6 white men em
ployes of the Hudson Bay Company.
PREPARATIONS FOR THE JOURNEY.
In order to obtain accurate surveys of the
country he intended to traverse, Mr. Bryant
associated with him Prof. Keneston, the
Corresponding Secretary of the AA'ashington
Geographical Society and the engineer who
made the preliminary survevs of the Cana
dian Pacific Railroad. The two made
careful preparations, and left New
York on June 3 lart, arriv
ing at St. Johns, Newfoundland, on
July 0. Here they were detained ten days
awaiting the steamer Curlew, upon which
they finally embarked on July 16, reaching
.North West river, via Rigoiet, onJuiy.
They spent a week at Rigolet endeavoring
to obtain Indian guides, but the mountaineer
tribe they located superstitiously believe
that any one who beholds these mysterious
and dreadful falls the abode of awful
demons will die immediately.
A DIFFICULT JOURNEV.
Failing to obtain the aid of the Indians
the travelers engaged a sturdy Scotchman,
named Montague, and an Esquimaux. With
a canoe and a river boat in which to carry
provisions and equipments, this party of four
left the mouth of the Grand river on the 3d
of August. By the 27th they had ascended
200 miles. They were compelled to drag
their boats almost the entire distance, so
swift was the current. This' dragging with
a towline, "tracking" as it is technically
called, was most difficult and dangerous
work, owing to the thick forest growth and
the precipitous character of the river's
Danks.
At the head of the canoe navigation they
encamped, stored their provisions and struck
off into the interior, following an indistinct
Indian trail, and carrying their canoe with
them. After crossing seven lakes and the
intervening portages, they abandoned their
canoe for the time being, forsook the Indian
trail, and carrying on their backs the neces
sary provisions, mathematical instruments
and blankets, entered a pathless wilHerness.
After two days travel,' with a compass as
their only guide, they reached the Falls and
their hardships were ended. The sight was
most magnificent and sufficiently rewarded
them for all the danger and troubles they
had undergone.
A SUrEBB FALLS.
Over the great chasm into which the river
plunges, a column of mist rises to a great
height, in which the sunshine displays a
most beautiful rainbow. The roar is deaf
ening, and the travelers could hear it from a
distance of 20 miles. Half a mile above the
falls the river is 400 yards in width. Here
begins a series of three rapids, which, as
they eddy and fcam before the grand Cad,
are "not inferior to those of Niagara itself.
'Ft... linnt.il nf 1, A ,19a, ..,0 A O I 1 . .,vf,I.
and, at the third rapid, the width does not
exceed 150 feet. The water, compressed
into this narrow gorge, rises into great cones
and leaps with overwhelming force into the
depths below.
The height of the fall was found, by ac
curate measurement, to be 316 feet. At
great peril Mr. Bryant managed to descend
the precipitous bank to the bottom, and
there obtained aneroid readings. This was
the most dangerous feat of the whole jour
ney. Prof. Kenaston took careful measure
ments of the rapids and falls, and also upon
the return trip made a compass survey of
the river. Mr. Bryant obtained many fine
photographs of the falls from various points,
and kept a record of the meteorological
observations during the entire journey.
The distance from the falls to the mouth
of the river is 2o0 miles. The party obtain
ed 200 specimens of the Flora of the coun
try throngh which they passed, and also
made a large geological collection. Num
bers of black bears were seen, and two were
shot Spruce partridges and wild geese
were slaughtered in abundance.
THE RETURN TRIP.
Upon the return trip the descent of Grand
river occupied only seven days; the ascent
had taken a month. Ryolet was reached
on September 22 and Indian Harbor on the
24th. The party arrived at St. Johns upon
the 26th. Mr. Bryant, aided by Prof.
Kenaston, has solved a most "import
ant geographical problem,, and has
made a solid addition to our pre
vious limited knowledge of Labrador.
He deserves the highest praise for his cour
age and perseverence, as also does Prof.
Kenaston for the able manner in which he
assisted his comrade. Both gentlemen have
returned in excellent health, and are none
the worse for the great dangers and hard
ships they have encountered. The greatest
interest in their enterprise is felt through
out the country, and their disc very will be
hailed with satisfaction everywhere.

M0KANNA, THE VEILED.
Influence of the Most Heinurkable Char
acter of the Eighth Century.
The veiled prophet was not a creation of
mere fancy, but a genuine historic char
acter of the eighth century. His name was
Stiakim Ben Allah, but he called himself
Mokanna, the Areiled. Having lost one eye
from an arrow .wound, he wore a thick veil
to conceal the deformity, and laid claim to
be an incarnation of the Deity. He had
many followers in Arabia, and soon pos
sessed himself of a large part of that coun
try, and was acknowledged by a number of
cities. His influence was retained by many
devices, such being his skill in magic and
legerdemain that his tricks passed for mir
acles. Troops were sent against him by the
Calipu-Mahadi, his armies were defeated in
the field, and he was besieged in a small
fortress in the south of Arabia. Finding
success impossible and deeming escape hope
less, he poisoned his attendants in a ban
quet and leaped into a well or cistern which
had been partly filled with destructive
acids. AVhen the conquerors forced a way
into the castle they searched in vain for
him or his body, the latter having been en
tirely dissolved by the corrossive fluids.
The secret was discovered by the confession
of one who had beheld the preparations for
suicide; but in some parts of Arabia there
are still persons who believe that Mokanna
ascended to heaven.

A Railroad Over the Andes.
It will probably be 10 or 1." years before
a train will be able to cross the South
American Continent, although the distance
to be covered by the Transandine road is
less than that between St. Louis and New
York, Buenos Ayres and Valparaiso being
only about 800 miles apart. It is true the
Transandine Railroad is nearly completed,
but even if it is finished next year it will
be years before a car can be hauled from
end to end of it. This is because almost
every known gauge is represented. Differ
ent sections were built by different con
tractors and by capital provided by differ
ent nations, the style of each being fol
lowed by the builders.
Representing Chinese Character.
There isn't a good impersonator of Chin
ese characters worth talking about Charles
Parsloe is the best who ever tried to coun
terfeit the Mongolian, but even he is not
accurate. His voice is too harsh and he
fails to grasp the peculiar intonations of ut
terance which all Chinamen use. A real 1
clever actor who could imitate a Chinaman's
voice and gestures would make a fortune.
Lots of actors have studied the Chinese
character as a possible role in which to star,
biit none of them have ever succeeded. It
is also asingular fact that no real China
man haiportrayed a Chinese character on
the modern stage.
