Besides the <"i-• w 011
Board the Ul-latcd Strainer Ortig
ia When She Collided with the
Marion I\—Thrilling Scenes.
Spezzia. Italy. July 22.—A terrible
accident occurred near lie-mouth of the
Gulf of Spezzia yesterday afternoon.
The steamers Ortigia and Maria l* ran
into each othor, and the latter was so
badly damaged that she sank in a very
short time. She had on board, in addi
tion to her crew. 17W passengers from
Naples, all of whom were drowned.
Terrible Scenes on Board.
The scene on hoard the sinking steam
er defies description. The pa -Tigers
were panic-stricken and rushed hither
and thither, calling upon the saints to
save them. The steamer, it is said, fill
ed so rapidly that it was impossible to
cast free and launch the small boats on
board of her or on the Ortigia.
In the Dark of Night.
The night was pitch dark when the
collision occurred and most of the pas
sengers were asleep in their hunks at
the time, and were awakened by the
crashing of the steamer's plates, deck
beams and deck plunks. They were
panic-stricken and rushed pell-mell on
deck.
Some Jumped Overboard.
From the reports of the disaster re
ceived here it is impossible to determine
whether any attempt was made by the
Maria P. to clear away and launch her
small boats, to attempt to rescue the
passengers, but, judging from the ac
counts given by the excited survivors,
it is surmised that the steamer went
down too quickly to allow of this being
done, though one boat got away. The
blackness of the night added to the ter
ror of those on board, and it is under
stood that some of the passengers, crazed
with fear, jumped overboard.

that "women are riding to suffrage on 1

C. F. PARDIOON was the first man
seen on a bicycle in Richmond, Va. lie
visited his ohl home in Paris about 1871,
and brought a very tall wheel back
with him. A conservative estimate of
wheels in actual use in Richmond
would be two thousand.
REV. MR. FAIRBANKS, an American
missionary in India, attributes a large
part of his success to the use of a :
bicycle. Not only is he enabled to ;
cover a more extensive territory with
it, but the natural curiosity of the na
tives brings large crowds tosee "ahorse !
that needs neither grass nor grain."
IF women bicyclers will have the
saddle directly over the pedals and so
high that when the pedal is down the
foot must he bent to reach it, they will
make a much more graceful appear
ance. This will, of course, make
mounting somewhat more difficult, but
the objectionable knee action will be
less obtrusive.

FACTS AND FIGURES.
"FIASCO" means a bottle or flask.
When the Italian glassblowers cjctect- j
id flaws in the vase they were blowing,
they made an ordinary bottle of the
failure, and hence the name.
TIIE area of the British colonies is;
8,000,000 square miles, that of the j
French 8,000,000, of the Dutch 060,000,
of the Portuguese 200,000, of the Span
ish 170,000, of the German 99,000, and
of the Danish 74,000.
THE thumb, according to professional
palmists, is an unerring index to the I
mind. If a person is trying to deceive I
you, he will invariably draw his thumb |
in toward the palm. On the other
hand, if he is telling the truth, the :
thumb will relax and point away from
tho palm.
THE powder used in big guns is
queer looking stuff. Each grain is a
hexagonal prism, an inch wide and
two-thirds of an inch thick, with a j
hole bored through tho middle of it. In
appearance it resembles nothing so |
much as a piece of wood. If you touch
a match to it, it will take seven or
sight seconds to go off.
IN LONDON TOWN.
TIIE flower trade of London is esti- )
mated to amount to $25,000 a day.
IN Southwark, London, an old hos- )
telry, "Tho Crossed Keys," is about to
be torn down, which belonged to John
Harvard in 1027, before lie emigrated
to America.
IT is claimed that, owing to the good
work done by the Improved Industrial I
Dwelling company, of London, the
deuth rate of that city has been re- ;
duced from forty to only eleven in a
thousand.
Tins pathetic but belated appeal up- |

ho loved me, and then that he was

[ Willimantic, Conn., July 28.—There
is a good ileal of excitement here over
the defalcation and disappearance of
Cashier Waldcn. of the Dime Savings
bank, and nothing but rumors regard

search was made for securities and

National bank of Hartford $20,000 and
retained $5,000, which has disappeared
with him. The bank is closed. It is
learned that the bank has a deposit of
SB,OOO at the Windham National bank in
llos c ity and a large deposit at the
Hartford Trust company, both of whi h
are safe and will materially swell the
assets.

Philadelphia, July 28.—Apprehension
in this city for the safety of the Prince
ton student geological exploring party
has been dispelled by the receipt of a
postal card from L. Frederick Pease, a
member of the party, by his parents
in which ho stated that the stu
dents are well and have had 110 trouble
from the Indians.
Far from the Indians.
The parents of Mr. Pease reside in
, Germantown and the postal card re- j
! ceived was dated Dubois, Wyo., July
14, and contained the following: "Am j
going through to Yellowstone park, I
! where we arrive Friday, and crossing :
the park. John Otheman and I return to
Chicago via Northern Pacific from Cin
nabar, Mon. We will arrive home
about the same time as formerly ex
pected. Am well, as are all. The
mountains are covered with snow, and
we have to cross through it. Don't
worry about the liamiock Indian trou
bles. They are seventy-five miles from
here, and we are daily leaving them far
behind. Goodby till Friday."
No Fears for Their Safety,
i Mrs. Pease stated to-day that she had
no fears for the safety of her son. "We
have received letters from Fred at regu
lar intervals since his departure. This
postal, if nothing else, would dispel any
; rears that I might have had for the
safety of my son. His plan was to leave i
I the party on their arrival at Yellowstone |
park, where they were to have arrived >
on the 19th inst. and in company with j
I Mr. Garrett and Mr. Otheman travel !
j through Yellowstone park in advance of I
I the party so as to get home on the 20th, !
as he sails for Europe on the 81st. The :
