The total number of Chinese
In New South Wales at the end of
Inst year was 9,016. Few are women,
but 352 European women were living
with Chinamen, of whom 181 were
married.
A portrait of the Kev. John A.
Simpson, for many years pastor of a
ITnlvcrsalist church at East Cam
bridge, Mass., has been placed in the
Boston Rogues' Gallery. He is in Jail
on charge of horse stealing.
Burglars awoke Farmer Plumnier,
at Durham, Me., and he chased them,
loosing no time in adding any cloth
ing to t he shirt in which .he had slept,
but taking care to throw a gun across
his shoulder. Across fields and
through a village he pursued them,
until he gotjwithin close range, when
they surrendered rather than be shot.
Mnjor Hubbcll and Capt. Smith
spent a night in drunkenness, at
Goshen, lnd., and on the following
morning awoke with aching heads,
ami heartily ashamed of the exhibi
tion they had made of themselves.
The Captain proposed suicide, and the
Major said that the idea was was ex
cellent. They bought a vial of mor
phine, drunk it, and died. The affair
gave the local total abstinence society
an opportunity, which they improved
by closing every barroom in the vil
lage. Not even the face of Maud Brnns
conib, the pretty actress, who has been
photographed in hundreds of different
postures, and whose portraits consti
tute an important part of the stock in
nearly every picture store, is really so
well known to the American public
as that of Ann V. Williams of Phila
delphia; yet Miss Williams is a mod
est, retiring teacher in a public school
It is her fucc that is stamped on the
silver dollar, she having sat for the
artist who designed the Goddess of
Liberty's head for that coin.
The Rev. Josiah Hannian of Iz
ard, Texas, was worried because his
name wan so much like Human, and
he studied the Bible story of Human
until he became insane on that sub
ject. "Children," he cxclamed, ill the
midst of a sermon, "Hainan was hung,
as near as I can make a calculation, a
little over 100 feet high. Now, Chil
dren, I believe God wants me to give
up my soul to him right away, and so
take this rope and hang me 120 feet
above the ground." This frightened
the congregation so much that, they
ran away, and the preacher hurried
into the woods, where he hanged him
self. Mr. Robert Bridgens, an old citi
zen of Chnpmnn township, came very
near losing his life, Friday morning
last, near North Point station. A few
minutes before the. Day Express east
was due at that station, Mr. Bridgens
started up the railroad track to go
home. Being a little hard of hearing
be failed to hear the locomotive whis
tle and continued on the track until
the engine came within a few feet of
him, when he left the track. Engi
neer Roat took in the situation and re
versed his engine immediately after
lie whistled, otherwise it is very
likely Mr. Bridgens would have been
killed. Renovo Record.
At last Mr. Wolfe, the prime
mover in the riot bill investigation,
has commenced the work of arresting
those who were believed to have been
engaged in corrupt practices at Harris
burg last winter. Charles B. Salter
was arrested at Philadelphia Monday
afternoon, and entered bail for his ap
pearance in Dauphin county. Win.
H. Kemble has also been formally no
tified to enter bail upon the same
charge at Harrisburg. Mr. Wolf and
his committee have taken a long time
to prepare forthd prosecution, une it is
announced that they have engaged
Senator Matt Carpenter, Judge Black
and Franklin B. Gowcn, as attorneys
for the prosecution, and that the case
will bo vigorously pushed. It is sur
mised that Wolfe is working in eon
junction witli the democratic commit
tee at Pittsburgh, and that he will
endeavor to have these trials pushed
in September, for the purpose of mak
ing as much capital out of them us
possibte in the Democratic cumpulgn.
When Wallace, the Democratic
Sheriff of Hamilton county, retired
from office lust spring lie was $:"3,000
short, not an unusual thing, however,
for a Democratic official. Of course it
was expected his bondsmen would
make it good to the county, but the
lawyers show that the County Com
missioners did not call for monthly
settlements according to law, und so
they (the bondsmen) are released from
the responsibility, at least for $14,000
of the amount, and the county must
pocket the lws. The Board of Com
missioners wus Democratic like the
SheriiT, and there Is no telling now
just who did get the 14,000. We hope
the people of Cincinnati and Hamil
ton county will be a liltle more par
ticular, hereafter as to what kind of
men are trusted witli their funds, and
they will no doubt take measures
wheu so many Democrats are holding
the purse-strings, to compel a Board
of Commissioners not to become ac
cessory to the theft of public funds Im
partiality and neglect of duty. Stu

STI J.I. LATER.
Mobile, August 19. The fever quar
antine along the Mobile and Ohio
railroad, north of this point, has been
discontinued and the line is now open
through from St. Louis to New
Orleans.
Eleven cases were reported to the
board of health this morning, three of

occurred since last night: Con Khehau,
Pat Cavanaugh, James Dolan and
Anne Weiss. Theauthoritiesand the
board of health officials are in consul
tation arranging plans for the complete
Isolation of tlie infected districts.
Major W. W. Gay continue to grow
worse. His condition is extremely
critical. The Hon. John Johnson, su
perintendent of quarantine, acting
under direction of J. I). Phinkett,
president of the state board of health,
will send an inspecting officer to White
Haven, Tennessee, to aid in effecting
the absolute isolation of the Golf
family, who are sick with fever at that
point If necessary the immediate
neighborhood" will be depopulated.
The greatest energy will be used.
Thirty-one cases in all reported,
thirteen of whom were colored. Maj.
W. W. Gay died to-night.
Mr. David Loucks, of Glade, one
of her thrifty farmers, the other day
killed a large rattlesnake measuring
five feet five Inches long and having
thirteen rattles, indicating it age to
have been thirteen years, It came
out of brush witli upraised head, and
on seeing its antagonist, stopped and
gave the defiant rattle. Mr. Loucks
whipped it with a bush and then club
bed its head. Rattlesnakes are un
usually plenty this season, and are
seen and killed where they have not
been seen before for years. They are a
dangerous reptile, and cannot too soon
be exterminated. Mr. Loucks brought
the rattles to this office as a proof of
his prowess. We have learned since
writing the above, that last Saturday,
we will say Saturday Alson Walker
of (ilade killed one hundred rattle
snakes most of them being young,
but one measuring four feet nine in
dies und had twelve rattles. Warren

Newport, It. I., August 17. Soon
after leaving New York last night a
women named Ruche on board the
steamer Bristol of the Fall River line
sent for a bottle of eampugne and after
drinking it went to the purser of the
boat and gave him a diamond neck
lace and watch, her stateroom key and
a note directed to a gentleman in Phil
adelphia. She then went up stairs,
took ofl'lier hat, went on deck, jumped
off und was drowned.
In her purse was found a note ad
dressed to Joseph Langfeldt, 607 Arch
St., Philadelphia, stating that she
could not live longer without him and
that she hoped lie would not feel un
kindly toward her. Deceased wore a
black silk diess, linen duster, diamond
earrings and a black bonnet. She wus
apparently twenty-five or thirty years
old.
--Profcsor Chandler, of the Health
Board, says: "Scarlet fever caused
more deaths in New York State last
year than yellow fever did in the
South, and yet failed to excite public
apprehension or to make people ordi
narily careful to prevent infection."

THE TERRIBLK CONFIjAORATION AT
I'ARKKR CITY ON SATURDAY.
Parker City, Pa August 17. The
danger which menaced this place with
destruction yesterday now seem to
have passed, though after the experi
ence of the last forty-eight hours,
nothing will give us an absolute feel
ing of security until the last vestiges
of the fire are removed. The smould
ering ruins therefore, which still mark
the scene of yesterday's disastcrous
conflagration are watched suspiciously
by many people who remember that
on Thursday evening the fire seemed
to have been mastered, but were rudely
wakened to a realization of the mis
take yesterday. Originating by a
twenty thousand barrel tank being
struck by lightning, the flames spread
with the How of the oil and soon en
veloped a wide tract, destroying an
other tank and several rigs which were
within its way. Another tank con
taining twenty-two thousand barrels
was ignited at tills time, but it was
hoped that the efforts to subdue the
flames had succeeded. The terrible
devastation of Friday night and yes
terday shows how greatly we were
mistaken. At half past eight o'clock
this tank exploded. Workmen had
been engaged upon it all the time in
the etl'ort to secure its safety, and at
the time of the explosion ten of them
were upon the top of the tank. They
were thrown a distance of thirty feet,
and John Clifford, Austin Hi nes. Win.
Ausiin, D. McMalion and J. McPher
son were severely injured by fire and
the fall. The burning oil now escaped
and made its way down two ravines
toward the city, threatening to sub
merge it, and creating the greatest con
sternation. The people became panic
stricken, rushing wildly through the
streets, women and children giving
over to crying, screaming and the
most abject exhibition of fear and des
pair. While this condition of a flair
prevailed on tlie streets some one sug
gested that they make for the hills,
which was at onco acted upon, and the
town wus deserted to its fate, not an
effort being made to secure any of the
personal property. People started off
wildly as fleeing from impending
death, and the streets were fairly
packed with a wild, ungovernable
mass of people forcing each other
other along toward the safety which
the hillside promised. Men drugged
their wives, women their little ones,
and the greatest confusion prevailed.
Those standing on tlie bluff, and
safe from all harm, describe the scene
when the river was literally on Are as
one grand beyond human conception
and beyond tlie power of pen to de
scribe. It was awful in its sublimity,
and even they were awed and made
breathless by the picture. The burn
ing oil toutched the Parker side at a
point overhanging Mike's run, three
quarters of a mile south, and the
flames ran so high that houses located
at this point, 300 feet down the river
bank, were endangered and were only
saved by the application of wet blan
kets. In half an hour after the oil
reached the river It was divided by the
current and the fire began to hug botli
shores, but it lrad spent its force und
all danger to the city had passed by. v
The oil from this tank set fire to
another culled the loading tank which
contained about 10,000 barrels which
udded to the fury of the Humes. The
city was lighted up with tlie bright
ness of the sun. Thousands of people
from the surrounding country, at
tracted by the report of the explosion
which was heard for many miles, had
assembled in the town und joined tlie
residents in filling the streets. Be
sides the destruction by the fire consid
erable damage was inflicted by the ex
plosion. Pieces of iron were thrown
iu every direction, some to a distance
of three miles, and the windows along
the river bank though on the opposite
side of the stream were broken. Many
of these were French plate und a quar
ter of an inch thick, but they like the
less pretentious ones were shattered
into thousands of pieces. Only tlie
remnants of the tank and the scorched
hills on the east side to tell tlie tale of
the fearful conflagration, but the
thousands of persons who were almost
driven to distraction by tlie danger
which threatened them will need no
monument to make the memory of
this terrible atl'air an enduring one.
The loss will reach $100,000, and will
be felt principally by the united lines.
It is rumored tha: two of the men
hurt by the explosion, have died, but
the rumor cannot be traced to any re
liable source. When the oil from tlie
Chalfaut tank touched tlie river it
caused a wave of water three feet
high to splash against the Parker
bank, raising boats high and dry upon
the shore. Forty feet of the Allegheny
Valley railroad were washed away by
the oil, and passengers had to be trans
ferred from one train to the other, und
by boats to the Parker side to muke
connections with the Parker and
Kariis City line.
LIST OK LOSSES.
The losses are, as far as can be ob
tained: Munhall & Co., $1,800; Gra
ham oil company, fO.000; United pipe
line, $43,000; I. Leisey & Co., $1,000;
Purker and Karns City railroad, $1,
000; Graham & Jackson's mills,
500; A. L. Mier, $1,500; W. H. Piper,
$1,000; J. MeNerny, $300; Fenton,
$500; Yingling, $100; Allegheny Val
ley railroad, $1,000; W. Dee, $500;
Oranil loadingracli, juo; faruer mer
schauts. broken glass, tl,.sui, A very
small proportion ot tlie loss was cov
ercd by insurance.
Five of the Raber murderers will
be banged shortly. Their names are
Chus. Drews, Frank Stickle, Henry
Wise, Josiah Hummel and Israel
Brandt. Geo. Zachman, who is also
implicated iu the murder, will have a
new trial. The murder was commit
ted at Indiantown, Lebanon county,
last fall.
