New Jersey, just across the Delaware river from Easton, a number of farm houses and barns were .struck by lightning. Tho Hunterdon county peach crop lias been almost totally ruined. Trainmen on the Belvldere division of the Pennsylvania railroad and on the Jersey Central say that in all their experience they have never witnessed such a destructive blorm. At Lambertvllle'and Flemlngton sev eral barns werek unroofed and trees were uprooted by the score. TON OF POWDER EXPLODES. IjOisenring's Mngnzino nt Milticsville Is Struck by Lightning.

On the Erie and Ashtabula division of tho Pennsylvania railroad, the damage was particularly severe. Tho rain re sembled a cloudburst In many places!; Landslides and washouts were frequent and mnny bridges and trestles were rendered unsafe. Small creeks were transformed Into torrents while In some places the roads were turned Into swiftly running creeks, endangering the trestles over them. There were two washouts on tho eastern division of the Fort Wayne line, one being nt New Galilee and the other at Summit. Tons of earth were swept down, covering the tracks and they were blocked for several hours, although all the through express trains got In on time this morning. The block house run track, running out of New Brighton, Is unfit for use. It Is n small switch, being only a few miles long. Tho Pittsburg, Youngstown and Ash tabula, New Castle and Benver A'al- ley, and other lines, comprising the Erie nnd Ashtabula dlvlsl6n, all suf fered severely, and as yet trniTlc on several of them has not been resumed. At bridges No. 28, at Nebo, and 39. west of Struthers, the eastern abut ments were carried away. There was a serious washout at Jenkins' Run, on the New Castle nnd Beaver A'alley road, and nil enstbound trains are run ning by way of Homewood bridge 17, east of Moravia, had two bents carried away, the trestle at Jenkins' Run wns ruined; one bent In the Newport bridge and one bent over a wagon road trestle.

RACING AGAINST TIDE AND TARIFF British Steamers Trying to Dent Dlnglcy Dill. the WILL WIN $125,000 IP SUCCESSFUL Two Vessels Lndon with Vnlunblo Cargoes ol Sugnr Aro Endeavoring to Itcnch Pliilndclpliln Ucforo tho Tnrliriltll Ilccomcs a Law--Heavy Wcnt'ior Cntiscs Dclny. Philadelphia, July 23. Two British steamers, laden with valuable cargoes of sugar, are tonight scudding over tho seas toward this port as fast as their engines can carry them In a race ngainst time, tide nnd tariff. There Is a stake of $125,000 at the finish If they get within the customs district of Phil adelphia before the Dlngley bill passes tho senatp tomorrow afternoon, for do ing so they will have saved that much money In duties on tho sugar. The ves sels aro the Eton, Captain Emwrlght, and the Hurworth, Captain Marck. Both are from Java with their cargoes consigned here. As Gibraltar was passed July 5 and C, respectively, the steamers should have come In the Del aware capes last night, but the recent heavy weather has probably caused the delay. To incoming vessels, the Philadel phia customs districts begins nt Mar cus Hook, Pa., and today three swift tugs went down the river to pull the steamers over tho line before the bill becomes a law. Every effort Is being made to make better time than the United States senate has been making, and the postponement of tho date on the bill until 3 o'clock tomorrow after noon has stimulated hope of landing the stake. To do so, however, the steamers will have to be within the district before noon tomorrow, ns the custom house closes at that hour un til Monday. Substantial rewards await the captains of the ships if they beat the bill. ENDEAVORERS IN WYOMING. Returning Pcuusylvnninus A'lsit Yel lowstone Pnrlc. Mammoth Hot Springs, Wyo., July 23.

From Popular Science News. A French fable tells of a frog who saw a bull grazing In' a field adjoining the pond where he lived. Envious of tho bull's size, the frog tried to blow himself up to tha same dimensions. He puffed out his wrinkled hide to the tmost; but his companions laughed at him, and told hint ho was not nearly an large as the bull. At this hj grew furious, and strained all his powers in a mighly eifort to blow himself up still further. Ona putt-another and he burst! The moral of this fablo Is good, but tho natural history is bad, as It is in most fables. Still, almost every one who has taken the troublo to watch frogs or toads for any time will have observed tho "blowlns up" to which they resort, tspecjally when alarmed by anything. AVatch a toad when eomo cruel boy Is after it with a stick, and you will tr-o tho phenomenon in all Its glory. AVhat is thJ explanation of It? A'ery pimple. Absurd as it may teem, tho toad Is trying to scare tho boy by looking as blc and terrlblo as it can. And doubtless it wonders very much that th'i boy doesn't take to his heels and run nt the sight of the huge nnd fierce monster before him! This "puffin?" of tho frogs and toads is ono of thoso instinctive defenses sn common among tho weuker animals. The cat's "getting its hack up," tho bristling of tho feathers of blrdi, tho sputter of th'e turtle, and oven tho ruttlo of the rattlesnake all belong to this class of protective manoeuvres.

CONNOLLY & INDUSTRIAL NEWS. The Immense basin of water which has submerged the Old Sugarloaf slope for almost a quarter of a century wns successfully tapped Into the water shaft nt No. 40 slope Thursday eve ning at 9 o'clock, says the Hazleton Standard. A bore hole had been driven for a distance of 1,235 feet, all this being accomplished under great dif ficulties. AVhen the wild rush of water gushed forth the noise made thereby somewhat resembled a miniature wat erfall, and fears were entertained by many old miners and thoso In charge of the enterprise that serious damage might result. But, fortunately, all that occurred was that the machinery was moved somewhat out of Its regular po sition. The water was stopped in the presence of General Superintendent Caleb AVIlllams and Mine Foreman Thomas AVIlllams, of the Lehigh Coal company, both of whom have been charge of similar enterprises In years gone by. It was the most remarkable feat of engineering skill of modern times, and by It many dangers are now averted. Several other holes to assist In draining the water from Old Sugarloaf will be completed in the near future, and it may be that many acres of coal that are now undeveloped may yet be mined and prepared for market. G. M. AVIlllams, of AVIIkes-Barre, the present mine Inspector of that district, is the only applicant from that section for the superlntendency of the newly erected bureau of mines. Reese Lloyd, of Drlfton, has some friends who are working to have him appointed to place In the bureau. A well known Repub lican who takes nn Interest in state politics, told a Hazleton Plain-Speaker man the other day: "Mr. AVIlllams seems to stand very well In this sec tion but Mr, Mansfield, the member who Introduced the bill, Is working for tho appointment of a soft coal man and Senators Quay and Hanna as well as a hordo of congressmen and state senators aro also in favor ot the of fice being filled by a soft coal man. They seem to think that the depart ment will be of a great benefit to the bituminous region and that Its duties ns far as the anthracite regions are concerned will be merely perfunctory." The men engaged In the proving of ttio McLaughlin coal tract near Hazle ton have adopted a new method to prove the depth nnd quality of the underlying mineral deposit which Is thought to exist there. It Is the drill ing of a hole by hand, which Is cal culated to give the same satisfaction In the way of revealing the dusky strata as would a shaft or slope which would cost ten times as much. The hole can be drilled over 50 feet In this manner nnd although the earth had been penetrated but a short distance there are already bright prospects of a realization of expectations as far as the discovery of coal Is concerned. Superintendent P. F, Brennan reports that about COO aliens are employed in the seven mines of the Reading Coal and Iron company In the Shamokln district. A big majority of these aliens are of the Slavonic races, hut the new alien labor lnw is showing thnt quite a number of English, AVelsh nnd Irish workmen have failed to take out their naturalization papers. The lessees of a portion of the Tresc kow coal tract are said to be pre paring plans nnd specifications for tho erection of a breaker somewhat larger than the Ducky Diamond, at Beaver Brook.
