8 Ijc Simco, , New Bloomftclir, 5Jn. A Block Samson. Tbore Is a negro Samson named Nelson de Lisle In New Orleans. Ho is a horse dealer by profession, and tho trick of bis trade is to take . possession of horses in an unauthorized mannor. He was denomina ted a horse thief before a court in Now Orleans in 1809 and sent to the State Pris on, where be stayed only bIx days of the five years awarded him. Ito broke jail by snapping Iron bars as if they bad been pine sticks, and carrying the outer gate, and fled and hid. The police have been on a lookout for him, and afraid they would find him. The other day two or three of them got a hold of him, but he broke loose and laid tbem out on the pavement with one blow eaob of his mighty arm. De Lisle then ran, and the cry of "Stop thief" was raised, and a gathering crowd surged in pursuit. A policeman fired three shots without any apparent ef fect, and he was at length brought to a halt by running as it were in a orowd of a thousand men, that hnd collected about him, both before and behind in his flight. The friction of such a mass was too much for him, and he saw the living wall close around him. He had no jawbone of an ass or any modern weapon to wield, or he might have waded through that thousand men and been free. It took twelve mus cular white Americans to take him to the Btation house, as he kept up a skirmishing fight all' the way. He was put in the stocks, and it was found that a pistol ball had passed through bis thigh, and a club had indented bis forehead over the eye. His vitals, which were covered with a heavy coating of upper leather, were unharmed. The authorities are thinking of putting De Lisle to performing feats of strength for their amusement, as the Philistines did Bamson of old. He is not of exaggerated size, being a little over medium size, but bis mould is Herculean and his endurance is equal to that of a steam engine of twenty horse power. A Bouiautio Story. Several years ago, while the Tom Thumb troupe were traveling through Now York, the cash box containing several hundred dollars of the funds was stolen. Mr. Wil liam P. Miller, who was. then treasurer of the troupe, suspected a girl who was em ployed at the hotel in the place where they then were, and his suspicions were further confirmed by her sudden disappearance. He managed, however, to get track of her after some time had elapsed, and worked up the case so well that she confessed to him that she had taken the money to pur chase a wedding outfit, and that the mar riage was soon to take place. She refund ed half of the stolen money, and Mr. Miller decided not to prosecute her for the balance. Shortly aftej she married a wealthy English gentleman, who was engaged in the lumber business in Chicago. ' Not many years had elapsed when her husband died, leaving her all of his propeity. 'A few months ago she also died, and in her will she left to Mr. Miller the sum of 1300,000, as- an exprcn, sion of her gratitude for not having pros ecuted her when in his power. Mr. Miller, who is now of the firm of Miller, Morrisson & Co., New York, recently received a let ter from her administrator ' stating that he could draw on him for $ 100, 000 at any time. Perils on (be Bail. On the 5th inst., a sad accident happened to a railroad train near New Haven. The short train which loaves Connecticut river at ' 0:15 a. m., ran off the track at the bridge at Stoney Creek. Superintendent Wra. M. Wilcox, of the shore line division of the consolidated road, wag killed, and a number of passengers injured. One hun dred were wounded, and a few fatally, by the railroad accident at Stoney Creek. Superintendent Wilcox was the only ono killed. Tho cause of the acoident was the switchman turning the switch before all the train had crossed the bridge. The last car jumped over the bridge dragging the whole train with it. One lady from Clinton, Conn., will probably die, as both her legs are broken, and she is injured in ternally. The favorable locality prevented the loss of many lives. The action of re placing the switch too soon was uninten tional. The cam full on Superintendent Wilcox, breaking his neck. ' Terrible Tire In Allegheny City. ' On the afternoon of July 4th in Alle gheny city, a square and a half of build- in m, principally dwellings, on the west side ' of Federal street, between Sampson street and Marquette alloy, extending back to Arch street, and three or four buildings on the east side of Federal street were burned At one time it was feared that the whole of the upper part of the city would be de stroyed, as the water wbb scarce and a hiith wind prevailed, but the flames were got under control about 7 p. in. Over one hundred houses in all were destroyed leaving many fumilios homeless. The loss will probably reach ! 300,000, The Are - originated in a carpenter shop, It is though from fire crackers. ' tW On the night of tho 5th inst, a storm passed over Savannah, Ga., tearing up trees and unroofing bouses. The gi and stand at the Fair grounds waa destroyed. The track of the storm was narrow, but 1U force was terrific. The display of electrical phenonena was grand. JVcw Advertisements. ., WTTTSTTV & TVrmTJTaTTTM?.''d8'r.mp. KVANS & Co., Mart's Falls. N.
