John II. Fellows. The trip lasted about nn hour nnd a half nnd every thing worth seeing was viewed. Tho party returned to Mears hall where an informal dance was held. The pro gramme of dances was a well selected one and nil thoroughly enjoyed them selves. The party was comprised of the following: The Misses Leila and I earl Porter, Louise Fahrig, Frances Kennedy, Edna Saxe, Edna Williams, Carrie Hutching?, Giace Ackei, Jane Fellows, Nell, Lois, Ethel, Eflie nnd Oitrude Tellows, Uliznbeth Helser, Aich Mears, John Howell, Charles Sweet, Turvey lireese, llert Tellows, Frank Jones.

Though the long curve from Jackson slieet into Robinson street is well Known to be a rather dangerous curve at anv time, so far as the street cars are concerned nnd that great care is used by the street car men at all times to prevent any accident, still drivers of vehicles grow careless. An Instance of this soit was biought nut vesterduv and nearly resulted in n fatality, or at least b.id injuries. As it was, only a broken spring, damaged fender, badly frightened man and a surprised hoise were the sum total of lesults. Tho accident happened about 11.20 o'clock jesterday morning. Just ns car 202 of the Luzerne street line inward bound was leaving Jack son street, turning In on the curve, about 200 feet further on, Motorman Fox saw a liotse, attached to a light edfern The demands on the expert fitter who is here demonstrating the indisputable merits of Redfern Corsets have been so great, and so many engagements remain unfilled that we have been compelled to arrange a continuance of her services for another w eck. Ladies If you appreciate comfort combined with indescribable ele gance, you will make it a point to see the Iff m mwi VI made from finest French batistes and weighing only a few ounces, but at the same tunc possessing in the highest degree every point that has made Redfern Corsets fatuous. These perfectly modelled garments are known throughout the civil ized world and although an American Corset are even better known in - London and Paris than they arc in this country, the reason being that European women pay closer attention to such matters than their Ameri can sisters do. A full range of Redfern Corsets is now on exhibition at the store, and comfortable fitting rooms have been arrange1 for hose who wish to take advantage of them. The lady demonstrator will be with us for one week only spring wagon, coming llesurely along tho tracks toward him. He rang his bell loudly and expected to see. tho driver turn out. Not he, for he was fast asleep. Ilv this time the car was dangerously close nnd Fox tried to stop his car. It slid and crashed Into tho wagon. The fender was bent up, body spring on wagon was broken nnd tho now thoroughly awakened driver was lying on his back In tho wagun, where ho hnd been thrown from the seat by the Jar, The horse escaped Injuiy by turning out far enough to be missed. Fortunately, tho car was going very slow or some other result would here b hae been chronicled. HAWTHORNE CIRCLE SESSION.

From tho Chtcago Record The dynamite cruiser Vesuvius, which has Just left Nwpoit to Join the squad ron oft Havana, Is an experiment In warfare which will be watched with great interest by naval authorities all over the world, and will undoubtedly be given an opportunity to demonstrate her merits before the war Is over She Is supposed to be more effective In battle tharr any of our battleships, cruisers or torpedo boats, the most de structive agency In the entire world, and she Is the only ciaft of her kind in existence, but her efficiency has been so stubbornly questioned that the gov ernment has not duplicated her. If she should prove etiunl to the piomises her defenders have made every nation in the world will add similar vessels to their fleet Sho Is small, swift and easily handled, and carries three pneu matic guns, each of which dlschaiges M0 pounds of nitroglycerine every live minutes Nltroglyt erlne has five times the explosive power of gun cotton and twenty-five times the explosive power of ordinal y powder. No ship could stand a moment ugalnst an explosion of this kind, even though It occurred In the water 100 yards from hei hull. Captain Xallnskl, who Invented the guns, has descilbed tho effect of their dWehnige ns "Hell let loose." and even that does not leem to do full Justice to the destruction that would be caused by scattering three-quarters of a ton of dvnamlte every five minutes In n city or a fortress or among a fleet of vessels. The projectiles are so arranged that when the strike anything they will explode and scatter the dynamite they contain In a shower over a large sur face. They can also be made to ex plode automatically by clockwork. Im agine seven or el-jht such shells dropped Into a city like New Toik or even Havana, or In the midst of a lleet of warshlrs. So long as her guns are in condition for use no vessel would' dare nttrck the Vesuvius without In viting total destruction. If this little craft weie pursued it Is only neces sary for it to stand still and await the proper moment, when the discharge of one or alt of Its guns would annihilate Its pursuer. A cruiser or a battleship might as well sail straight over Niag ara.
