Nearly Four Hundred People Drowned.
London, Jan. 30.?News is just re?
ceived here of one of the most fearful
catastrophes in the history of steam?
ship travel. About 6 o'clock this
morning the big trans-Atlantic steamer
"Elbe" of the North German Lloyd
line, came in collision with the steam?
ship "Cranthie," from Rotterdam, and
was sunk with practically all on board.
The collision occurred about thirty
five miles from the coast of Holland.
The "Elbe" was on her way to South?
ampton from Bremen with about fifty
saloon passengers, about one hundred
steerage passengers and a crew of one
hundred and eighty.
The morning was heavy and misty,
and the steamer was only making her
usual time and keeping her ordinary
lookout. Suddenly the steamer was
sighted off the port side, and before
the collision could be averted the then
unknown vessel had run into her.
The North German Lloyd steamer
was struck above her engine room and
ibegan to fill so rapidly that there was
only time to lower three boats, and one
of these swamped shortly after getting
away from the steamer.
The first boat contained the third
?officer, chief engineer, purser and
about twenty passengers, who are, bo
far as can be learned at present, the
'only ones saved.
The occupants of this boat were
picked up by fishing smacks and taken
: to the nearest harbor. From what can
be gathered, a very short time must
have elapsed between the actual collis?
ion and the sinking of the "Elbe."
Nothing is known as to the fate of
the occupants of the third boat. All
of the passengers are understood to
'have been below and asleep at the time
the collision occurred, and nearly all
.must have been either drowned below
i or met death while seeking to rush
upon deck.
The man who furnishes this infor?
mation is in suchan excited state that
i little could be gathered from him but
exclamations of horror.
He repeated time and again "It was
'horrible!" "It was horrible!" "Allat
once I heard a terrible crash followed
by an srwf ul sound of rushing water and
escaping steam. It was dark down
below where I was, but somehow I
managed to push my way on deck.
The ship resounded with heartrending
cries from all quarters, although the
officers seemed to be doing all they
could to calm the people. I saw a lot
of sailorB making a rush for a boat and
I joined with them. Somehow the
boat was lowered and I managed to
scramble into it."
A later despatch indicates that the
disaster is more serious than at first
outlined. It is now said there were
400 people oo board. Of this number
it is now announced that only five
passengers, the first engineer, third
officer, four paymasters, seven seamen
and two pilots were landed by fishing
smacks.
The Hotel Guest's Fright.
"I had an experience in Troy the
other night," said a commercial trav?
eller, "that was rather exciting. I
had made some big collections up the
river during the day, and it was after
midnight when I pulled into Troy for
the night. I struck a dingy old hotel,
but was tired, and so conoluded to
chance it without going far from the
depot, as I was to take an early train
the next morning. As soon as I
reached my room I locked the door,
and oonoluded to run over my cash
before going to bed. I found I; had
over $2,(J00.: I was in the act of roll?
ing the greenbacks up when I chanced
to glance at the transom.
"My heart stood still. Some one
was watching me count the money.
The hall was dark and the hotel was
silent as death. For a moment I was
undecided what to do. My heart was
thumping against my ribs like a sledge?
hammer. I busied myself with the
bills until I could decide on a course
of action. Without raising my head
I turned my eyes toward the transom.
This time no face was visible. I
quietly drew my revolver from my hip
pocket and slipped the bills into their
place, and then once more raised my
head and squarely faced the transom,
which was turned at an angle of about
forty-five degrees.
"The faoe was again there?peering
directly at me. There could be no
mistake about it?some one had fol?
lowed me, watched me count the mon?
ey, and was about to rob, perhaps
murder, me in my sleep. I was just in
the act of raising my revolver and dis?
charging it, when I discovered that it
was my own face reflected in the tran?
som, whioh was turned just at the
right pitch to catch a ray from an arc
light outside my window, and thus,
with a black background, formed a
very good mirror."?Washington Post.
A Wise Woman.
I had been living in the neighbor?
hood of the mountains one summer,
until I had become so well acquainted
with the people of that immediate
section as to be taken into their coun?
cils and locked to for advice on all
sorts of questions, even in domestio
matters. The one most important in?
volved the fate of two lovers. Jim
Sailers was courting Martha Little,
and everybody thought it was just the
right thing except Martha's mother
and she had opposed it from the be?
ginning. The girl's father was per?
fectly satisfied and did what he could
to win his wife over, but she was ob?
durate and would listen to no persua?
sion. I had talked to her once or
twice, but it did no good and I gave it
up. Jim and I had been on terms, all
along, and I advised him to run off
with Martha and trust to luck for the
balance. He was a thrifty young fel?
low, Bober and industrious, and could
got along very well without the mater?
nal blessing, teeing that everybody
else was pleased, but he did not care
to do so if there was any chance of
winning the mother. At last, he
agreed that if Mrs. Little didn't come
around within a week, he would pick
tyartha up and run away with her, I
agreeing to lend him what extra money
he might need, as he had a good oreek
farm and would have plenty when hia
crops came in. With this assurance
from Jim, I went back to Mrs. Little.
"I know what you've come fer, col?
onel, and it ain't no use talkin'," she
said as soon as I got into the house.
"My dear madam," I replied, "I
must talk to you. I've seen Jim and
as sure as you are alive, he will run
off with Martha and marry her, wheth?
er you want him to or not, and it would
be so much better if you would give
your consent and have it all done
regular and as it should be."
"Well, I tell you I won't give my
consent, and that ends it," ehe said
hotly. "I don't keer what anybody
says, I ain't a goin' to say he kin
marry her."
"But that ia childish," said I.
"You won't give your oonsent just
because you don't want to and for no
other reason."
"I've got my reasons," she answer?
ed doggedly.
"Well, tell me what they are."
She got up and went to the door and
around the house and then back again.
"I wuz lookin' to see if ther wuz any?
body about," Bhe said as she resumed
her place, "and ez they ain't, I'll tell
you my reasons ef you'll promise you
won't tell."
I gave the promise readily and she
went on after a bit:
"I've knowed Jim since he wuz a
baby and I knowed his daddy afore
him," she said, "and they won't do
to fool with. Jim's all right and I'd
like to see Martha married to him,
but Jim's that pesky, thatef he know?
ed me and Martha's pap ana Martha
wanted him to marry her, he'd be
craw-fishin' in on time and thar
wouldn't be no weddin'. But ez long
ez he thinks somebody is ag'in him,
he's goin' to take t'other track and
pull his way. Now you know my
reasons and I ain't a-goin' to move a
peg outen the road fer nobody till I've
got Jim landed safe with Martha down
thar on that farm uv his'n. Let him
run off with her ef he wanster and
when they come back hitched fer good,
X* 11 have an infair right here in my
house that will be the biggest one you
ever hearn tell uv in these parts, col?
onel, and ef you ever tell on me it
won't be good fer you. Now mind."
I minded, and now Jim and Martha
have been 'married some time, and
Jim is so well satisfied that even if I
have betrayed the confidence of his
respected mother-in-law, it will not
make any great ditfcrence.
A Balloonist?* Peril.
Jacksonville, Fla., Jan. 29.?
Miss Virgie Russell, the youthful
aeronaut who gives exhibitions of air
looomotion by descending from a bal?
loon to the earth under a parachute,
had a thrilling experience Sunday.
She went up in her balloon from Or?
ange Park, a village about sixteen
miles above Jacksonville on the St.
John's river. It was after 5 o'clock
when she started' and nearly dark be?
fore she attempted to make the usual
descent from the airship. Then the
ropes would not work and she could
not disengage her parachute. The
balloon was over 2,800 feet above the
earth and the wind was blowing almost
a gale from the southwest. This took
the balloon across the country and out
of sight of the crowd of spectators in
the village. It was feared that the
I balloon and i bs passenger had fallen
into the river and all night long
searohing parties were out in boats
looking for signs of them.
About 9 o'clock, saw-mill hands on
the borders of Doctor's lake, many
miles from the scene of the ascension,
heard cries about 200 yards from the
shore and putting out in a boat, they
discovered Miss Russell on the surface
more dead than alive. The balloon
had either blown away or sunk and
the young woman was kept afloat by
her life preserver. Her three hours'
experience in the water, part of the
time being dragged about by the ropes
of the airship, was a very trying one
and nearly cost the young aeronaut
her life.

"I was a member of Congress for
five terms," remarked an ex-member
to a group of listeners, "and I am free
to confess that I was proud of my po?
sition, and thought I stood well in the
estimation of my fellow-citizens be?
cause of the place I occupied. Even
a Congressman can learn some things,
however, and on one occasion I was
given a lesson that rather surprised
me. I was on a train, and near me
sat an elderly woman, evidently from
the remoter section of the country,
with whom I got into conversation.
She was ignorant, but of considerable
native ability, and decidedly sharp of
speech. She felt a strong aversion to
politics and politicians, and was so
Vigorous in her attacks that I was
forced to come to the rescue.
"'My dear madam,' I said in pro?
test, 'I'm a politician.'
" 'No, you don't say !' she exclaim?
ed, looking at me with curiosity.
" 'Yes, I do say it; and what is
more, I am a member of Congress.'
"She actually threw up her hands
in astonishment at this statement.
"'Well,' she said, 'I never would
have thought it. And do you get paid
for doing it ?'
" 'I certainly do. The salary is
$5,000 a year.'
" 'Do tell,' she exclaimed. 'Well,
some men will do anythingfor money."'

Existence?Only One Man Liv?

Rev. Dr. John Wright, in his
?'Early Bibles of America," gives an
excellent compendium of personal
and bibliographical information in
regard to uTho Eliot Bible," says
the New York Observer. It was
printed at the expense of the corpora?
tion in England for the propagation
of the Gospel among the Indians in
New England. The New Testament
appeared in 1661, and the entire
Bible in 1663. In 1680 there was a
Becond edition of tho New Testament.
Another edition of the entire Bible
appeared in 1685. Like the former
editions, it contains the Psalms in
meter and the rules for Christian
liviDg. All these editions are jewels
of great price in bibliological collec?
tions. Dr. Wright makes the follow?
ing record of their values: "As the
years roll away the price of these
rarities steadily rises. At the sale
of the Brinley library in New York,
March, 1879, on Eliot New Testa?
ment of 1661 brought $700. At the
some sale a Bible of 1663 was knocked
down at $1,000. At an auction in
1884 a Bible of 1685 brought $950.
In London at a sale held July 2,1882,
Mr. Quaritch, .the eminent biblio?
phile, bought for the late Mr. Kalb?
fleisch, of New York, an Eliot Elble
of 1663, containing the English title
pages and dedication to Charles II.,
for ?580, that is, about $2,900.
Eighteen years ago, Nathaniel
Paine, of Worcester, Mass., made a
list of Eliot Bibles. By his count
the total reached fifty-four. Si?ce
then several copies, especially those
owned privately, have changed
hands, and others have come to light.
The writer has found twelve copies
that have not been previously no?
ticed or included in any list. There
are more Eliot Bibles in the great
libraries of Europe than was at first
supposed. The total number of In?
dian New Testaments and Bibles
now known to exist is more than one
hundred."
Wiiberforce Eames, the librarian
of Lenox library, in New York city,
Is the author of "Bibliographic Notes
on Eliot's Indian Bible and on His
Other Translations and Works in the
Indian Language of Massachusetts,"
Issued by the government printing
office, Washington, D. C. This is a
mine of accurate information in re?
gard to the various translations and
editions, with fac-similes of title and
other pages. It is not confined to
bibliographical details, but includes
much biographical material relating
to Eliot and his indefatigable labors.
Mr. Eames meatious and describes
Bixteen copies of the Eliot New Tes?
tament, 1661, several of which are
In this country, two being in the
Lenox library. He describes seven
varieties of the Eliot Bible, 1663,
mentioning with interesting details
thirty-nine copies, more than half
being owned in this country, two
being in the Lenox library and one
in the Astor library. He mentions
in the same way fifty-five copies of
the Eliot Bible, 1685. Next to the
biography of a good man is the bibli?
ography of a good book. No author
Is, more frequently quoted by Mr.
Eames than Dr. James Hammond
Trumbull. For many years he has
been the leading authority in regard
to the Indian languages and litera?
ture, his philological and historical
contributions being numerous and
valuable. He is frequently men?
tioned as the only man living who
can read the Indian Bible. When
he dies it will be quite safe to reckon
the Algonquin among the dead lan?
guages._
? The experience of Mr. R. D.
Whitley, an influential and prominent
citizen of Martindale, North Carolina,
will no doubt be perused with interest
by people in all parts of the country.
For years he has been subject to vio?
lent attacks of inflammatory rheuma?
tism ; on the first of February he had
an attack, which settled in one of his
knees and caused almost unbearable
pain, for two days. He obtained a
bottle of Chamberlain's Pain Balm
from W. M. Houston & Co., merchants
at Mecklinburg City, N. C. He writes
that it gave almost immediate relief
and gives Chamberlain's Pain Balm
the highest praise, and advises all
persons troubled with like afflictions
to use it and get relief. For sale by

to pass upon a bill to suppress obscene
literature. The bill is similrr to the
one in force in Massachusetts and is
more severe than the present law.
The bill originated in Bridgeport,

whether in books or newspapers, and

matter a State prison offence.'
? The patient had been sick a long
time and the doctor had done his best,
but in vain, and the end was approach?

"Well, doctor," replied the patient,
cheerfully, "I have only the kindest
of feelings for you, for I'm suie you

imperial permission, to cut off the
heads of all persons from the second

Superseding Steam.
The action of the Pennsylvania
Railroad in deoiding to substitute
electricity for steam on its branch line
between Burlington and Mount Holly,
in New Jersey, is only one indication
of the change now going on in tho
method of operating railroads. At
least two railroads near Boston now
run by steam will soon be equipped
with electricity, and if the chango
proves profitable other lines will soon
be operated on the same plan. This
is said to be the purpose of the Penn?
sylvania Railroad also, the change
projected on the New Jersey branch
line being in the nature of an experi?
ment.
It is certain that the steam railroads
will in the near future be compelled to
meet the new condition created by the
application of electricity to car pro?
pulsion. This fact has impressed
itself on the managers of railroads
whose track lies chiefly in the New
England States. It is in that neigh?
borhood that electricity has had its
widest development. Trolley lines
have been run out in all directions
from the principal cities, in some
cases paralleling steam railroads and
largely reducing their traffic and re?
ceipts. The New York, New Haven
& Hartford Railroad has lessened its
t^ain service on some of its branch
lines from this cause, and in its last
annual report it said that it would be
compelled to pursue the same plan
whenever its revenue was decreased
by competition with the trolley. The
receipts of a steam railroad between
Boston and Maiden have fallen off
about 50 per cent, on account of cheap
fares on the electric lines running be?
tween those places, and another steam
line from Boston to Revere Beach,
and Lynn has suffered a large loss in
receipts from the same cause.
The competition the steam railroads
will experience from electricity will
for some time at least be on branch
lines and in suburban traffic. The
trolley lines, paying nothing for their
right of way and demanding only a
comparatively small investment, and
able to run their cars cheaply, can
give a service much below the price at
which steam lines can afford it. An
illustration of how cheaply passengers
can be carried by the trolley lines is
given on the road .unning from Scol
lay Square, Boston, to Marblehcad, a
distance of twenty-one miles, the fare
on which for the whole distance is
eighteen cents. Excursions from and
around Boston, covering in the aggre?
gate over sixty miles, can be made on
trolley cars at a total cost of ninety
cents, or at the rate of one and a half

route doubtless the fare could be placed
as low as one cent a mile and still a
good profit returned, as it has been
demonstrated that the cost of the
motive power for a trolley car is a
fraction under three cents a mile.

over their prospective rival, and that
is the possession of a right of way and
a laid track that is all their own.
They are subject to few of the incon?
veniences that are inseparable from
operating a railroad on a public rail?
way or through the crowded streets of
a city. This will enable them to adopt
the trolley on railroads connecting
cities and run trains at a higher rate
of speed and with fewer obstructions
than cars can be run on the ordinary
trolley line. And speed aud cheap?
ness are the elements, that will tell in
the end. The Pennsylvania Railroad
has, for instance, four tracks between
Philadelphia and Jersey City. If two
of these tracks were equipped with
electricity and cars run at the rate of
a mile a minute, at a passenger rate of
one cent a mile, the road could laugh
at the proposed competition of pro?
jected rivals. Some such plan as this
will have to be adopted sooner or later
not only by the Pennsylvania Railroad,
but by many other roads, unless they
are willing to see their business taken
from them and their property greatly
reduced in value.?Philadelphia Press.
? "Queer people, this," said the
rural editor. "In what way ?" "Can't
understand English. Merely advised
them to give the new Mayor plenty of
rope, and, bless my soul, they lynched
him."
? Henry Clay once owned the lot in
Washington on which the Blaine man?
sion 6tends. He traded it to Commodore
Rodgers for an Andalusian jackass, one
of the four animals of the kind brought
to the United States by tbe Commodore.
Mr. Clay lost tbe jackass at tbe card table,
but subsequently renamed possession of
it and sent it to Virginia, where it became
tbe ancestor of a strain of mules famous
to this day.

'? A minister in Florida had been

The Successful Adyertizer 1
Is the man who writes something the
people will read, and raiding, believe. In
this age of education and enlightenment,
when men read and think for themselves,
all that stuff about "selling goods cheaper
than your competitors buy them," being
the "only competent doulers in tbe line,"
"handling better stuff than anybody
else," Ac., is mere clap trap, and subjects
the writer and the firm back of it to the
contempt of all right-thinking people. The
man who has something to offer, and then
tells tbe folks about in a plain, businesb
way, is the man who "gets there," and
getting there, stands.
Lots of people handle Paint. Some
handle one kind, some another, but they
all realize, if they have any business sens*
at all, that in order to make that business
a permanent success it is absolutely neces?
sary to give the people the very best ma?
terial. This we have tried to do, and at a
price that puts it in the reach of all.
In this connection we call attention, to
the fact that crops are about laid by, time
is plentiful, and a little paint not only
freshens and beautifies, but improves won
derfully the sanitary condition of the
premises. If your house is all right may?
be the fence needs a coat. A little Faint
would keep that old buggy from falling
down, and the wagon might last a year or
two longer by spending seventy-five cents
or a dollar in Faint on it.
Remember this, the longer you put it
off the more it takes and the less good it
does. Remember another thing, it costs
just as much, and tak-a just as much time,
to have cheap paint put r< as it does good
Paint. Always buy the <sst, even if you
pay more for it.
