Blazing Oil Tanks On. City, Pa., My 14. An iron tank contaiug 15,000 barrels of ail, two mile up Oil creek, was struck by lightning Saturday at 11 o'clock. This morning the tank boiled over setting fire to an other thank on the opposite side of the creek containing 31,000 thousand bar rls. The Keystone refinery, a short di- tance from the fire is in some danger. Wing dams are beiug built in the creek to protect property along the creek. The oil and tanks are owned by J. B. Smith man. An Eloping Couple Killed. Muskogee, I. T., May 13. News has just been received here of h terrible do mestic tradgedy, which occured yester d ty at Kialiga Springs. The report states fi tt one John Smith has lately been very attentive to Mrs. Allen, the wife of a neighbor. While Allen wa3 away from ho. ne ou Thursday Smith and Mrs. Allen eloped. On Allen's return he found how matters stood and, armed with a Win chester gave pursuit. Ho came upon the pursued on Friday noon, and at once rid dled both the man and woman with bul lets. Hj then it-turned to his home and traded his crops for a horse and paddle and left for parts unknown. Smith and Vllen were white men and Mrs. Allen a Creek. High License and Cattle. Ucunktt, Neb., My 14. The remon strance agaiust license has been over ruled and license granted by the board. The remonstrants have giyen notice of ippeal, though they cap scarcely hope t win. It appears to bs the wish of the majority that license prevail as the muni cipal election clearly demonstrated. Fat cattle are being shipped from this pjint to Omaha and C'hicogo in large numbers. The cattle interests of this vi cinity are worthy of more than passing notice. The Couerse Cattle company and the Benjamin Weaver company together represent between 60,000 and SO.OOO lead on their ranches here and Wyom ing. Bell & Kankin will ship upward of three thousand fat cattle this season and other feeders lesser quantities. A Crand Outlook. Atkinson, Neb., Many 14. We have been having for over a week a steady fall of rain. The grass and small grain is in splendid condition and farmers arc getting their corn planted as fast as the rainy weather will permit. Our prospects for good crops this year are better than ever before and the workers of the soil are in a jubilant ttate of mind. Many eastern parties are investing in Holt coun ty lands, and they are much pleased with our climate, soil, water and grand out look Atkinson is making great prepara tions for the Grand Army gathering of northwest Nebraska which will be held for four days including July 4. Beauti ful grounds have been selected for the encimni.rjnt aloivj the banks of the Elk horn river, and a large assembly of the boys in blue and their friends are expect ed. Suspected Train Robbers Arrested . Nooat.es. Ariz., May 13. This after noun Mexican officials arrested two Mex ican cu torn guards onsuspician of being implicated in Friday's train robbery. American ofii. crs also arrested an meri can named Taylor, owing to the fact that a hat vrlilt h ;r.e :f the robbers lott was recoguiz-'d as one which Taylor wore here yesterday. This evening the Mexi can officials, who have been in pursuit of the lobbors. arrived here with four pris oners whom they had captured. The funerals of the dead conductor and fire nnii were luld this afternoon. Express Messenger I.'ay and passenger French are still alive, but it is tut believed they can recover. All places of buniuess have been dossed here today. Taylor, the m in arrested yesterday on suspicion of being one of the parties con nected with the robbery, made a partial ciiiifessiou. He says a man named Con rad Hoi ling was t the head of the rob !cry. Boiling left town yesterday morn ing for a camp thirty miles from here. A teciil train carrying oiSeers with mounts left today in pursut of the rob-Ikta ! Indian r.'.urdxrcrs Tull Identified. Tccson.' Arii. " - Last June Johnnie Dexl n 2 "tre killed by band of C , who left San Carlos naserr:: shooting the chief scout, Al Siebcr. They all returned to the reservation. The Indian scouts were tried by military court and sentenc ed to twenty years imprisormeut for mu tiny. Every effort was made to have some of the others turn state's evidence as to which of the Indians killed Grace and Deal, but unsuccessfully. During the last two days some Indians not tried by the military court have been before Unit ed States Commissioner Hughes, under going a preliminary hearing. Two of them gave away the names of the Indians who did the killing in both cases. The scouts, with anoLher Indian, killed Deal, and four scouts with another Indian kll ed Grace. As these murdtrers are now fully identified, they will be indicted and no doubt hanged, and would have been months ago, could evidence now at hand have been discovered. Diiipoitlng of Human n-18. Dr. George Hay, a chemist, advances a plan for tho disposition of tho dead bodies of human beings. He advocates an economic distribution of the remains so that they may return to the elements as soon as possible, il for no other purpose than to furnish a fertil izer. Dr. Hay would pulverize tho body with the aid of machinery. He says: "The machines might be so contrived as to break the bones first in pieces of tho size of a lien's egg, next into fragments of the size of a marble, and tho mangled and lacerated mass could next be reduced by means of chopping machines and steam power to minco meat. At this stage, wo have a homogeneous mix ture of tho entire body structures in the form of a pulpous mass of raw tlo.li and bones. "This mass shall now be dried thoroughly by means of steam heat at a temperature of 250 degs. Fahrenheit, or a pressure of thirty pounds to the ineh; because, firstly, we wish to reduce the material to a condition con venient for handling, and, secondly, we wish to disinfeet it, as no infectious or con tagious disease can retain its vitality at this temperature. Once in this condition it would command a good price for the purjxjso of manure. Another method is by boiling in close vessels. Tho oil, which would rise to the top, may be drawn off to be converted into soap or a lubricant. The residue may by various simple processes bo converted into fertilizing material." His final sugges tion is the "distillation mpthod." Tho bodies are to bo placed in gas retorts, and in about six hours will be converted into illuminating gas, water, ammonia, tar, and animal char: coal. By subsequent distillation such sub stances as 3ulphate of ammonia, aniline, colors and iai Ulio leid may be obtained. It is this process which finds most favor with the writer. Pittsburg Cor. Chicago Tribune. The Pipe to Smoke. "I don't know la I ought to tell you aboi,t it." id well known Park row lealer, "but it is a fact that the soft white clay pipe, vhieh ;osts only a penny, is the healthiest and cleanest tt all pipes now in ise. Of course the meerschaum is 7ery good when it is new, but it becomes unhealthy zhs jlder it gets, consequently i.t is not 35 to smoke after it has been used jix months, if you have any regard for your mouths. All pipes absorb, more or less, tho nicotine, which is poisonous juice, nd when the pipe be comes full it ansuspectedly finds its way to the mouth and stomach. I am acquainted with several persons who, having used the snmo pipe for a number of years, have finally become seriously poisoned. "The clay pipes will soak np twice as much nicotine as the meerschaum, consequently they should not be used more than a dozen times, especially when the tobacco is of a greenish color or at all damp. Now, in re gard to wooden pipes, they ought never to be smoked more than two months, and in many cases not more than one month ; but this is according to the strength of tho tobacco people use in them. After the white clay pipe comes the meerschaum; then, third, comes the hard earthen pipe; fourth, comes the wooden pipe, then the porcelain pipe, and last, and the worst, the metallic pipe." New Vo?k Evening Sun. A Gigantic Corliss Engine. A compound Corliss engine, of a gigantie description, has been produced nt one of tho Scottish foundries, designed for a cotton mill in Bombay. According to the description, the high pressure cylinder of this immense engine is' some 40 inches, each having a stroke of 8 feet; and tho fly wheel, which weighs about 110 tons, is SO feet in diameter by C feet 0 inches wide, grooved for S3 ropes, by which the power is transmitted to the various lines of shafting in the milL The engine runs at tho rate of 60 revolutions par minute, thus giving a speed of ropes of considerably more than I mile a minute. The crank shaft, made of the best Whitworth fluid compressed steel, is 25 Inches In diameter in tho body, and 20 in the bearings. The steam pressui-e is rated at 100 pounds per square ineh, and the engine works easily up to 2,5C'0 horse power. New York Sun. A Fashionable Woman' Whim. Tm9 extent to which money is wasted at u fashionable woman's whim was illustrated to me tho other day. I was in the shop of a well known florist on Briadway when a lady came in from a private coach. She purchased three huge roses, for which she paid S5, and carried them daintly away by their long stems. An hour later, going by Delruonico's, I saw my lady of the. roses lunching at one of tho windows with a com panion of her own sex. Fifteen minutes af terward, returning by the same way, I noted tint the table where they sat was vacant. Three bare roso steins lay amid the dishes, which were buried in rose leaves. The lady of the roses had plucked worth of flowers to pi cess In a few minutes' idle conversation fiftcr her luncheon I Neither their cost uot their beauty had auy raluo ja her' eyes.

V." m New Oi !eai.d Time Ixmhoci ud. Trying to Itrrorm the World. Mrs. Eliza'oeth Cudy Ktanton recently toM a story about the way in which slio began, her work of reforming the world. Vhit she was a girl of 10 or 12, s.lio u.sed to see In r father, Jude Cady, administering law from the bench. She noticed that the judge, in laying down the law or giving his decision, always referred to his law books for guidance. She set to work in his librarj reading these books, and ns she tliouv ht. Iieri! l i - t UUythitlgbutwli.it I..,;.. ; .nu c, Ci.w fully tore out and burned thoiie pages that contained principles of decisions of which .sbtj disapproved. How eould he, while on the bench during a trial, niuko application t.( anything not to be seen in the books by whit n lie wad guided.' Kha discovered a great deal that was oirensivo in every law book that sho iiisected in his library. Out came the pages, which she cast into the fire until the book suited her, and she. foit sure that her father would Iks compelled to confute himself to such law as she left. !She kept on at (his work for a long while, until she was caught at it; but by that timo a great part of Juii-j Cudy 'a law library had been spoiled in her efforts to reform the world. New York huti. "Inferiiatioiiitl Identity Card"." The police authorities of Vienna for sonw time past have, on appboal 10:1, issued so called "international identity cards," con sisting of a photograph, ou which a brief personal description of the owner is written in three languages (( Senium, French uu.l English), and to which an oflici.il certificate ami seal is attached in such a way as to pre vent the possibility of tho exchange of the carte de visite photograph. The card is kept in a small leather cover, can therefore eusilv be carried, ur.d for purposes of idpiit itication is fully us uueful uul even more convenient to travelers than a passport. This same idea was used in issuing press lickeis to our 'e;i- tenniul Exhibition in 1!7i5. Each pnss ticket bore the photograph of the editor or reporter who presented ii, and thin precau tion prevented "passes" from being trans ferred. Home Journal. Music a Metieri) .S'ip,:e. Music is a, motion science, the compute scale, as wo have it, being an invention of strietly modern times. Ancient nations em ployed only tho pentatonio icale, or scale having live notes, to wit one, (wo, three, five ami six, and in the Orient ttxlay the eii tutonie scale is the only on) known in their music. The Arabians, it is true, employ a scale somewhat different, having imarter tones instead of halt tones like our own. some of the Arabian instruments being tuued to quarter tunes in such a way that mitsie adapted to them cannot bo played upon a European instrument of any kind, or even sung by a lMiropeuu without giving the Oriental the impression that the tune is false. .San rrancisco Examiner. Hotel Clerk Novel Scheme. The night clerk at a West Side hotel has a novel scheme to prevent impecunious cus tomers from getting away without paying their score. At the same time he combines business with pleasure, and thereby gets more sleep than any other night ch-rk iu town. Every morning at 1 o'clock bestrews tho floor in front of his do.k with parlor matches, and then drops oiT to sleep. If a customer attempts to pass the sleeping clerk without paying his chock his feet encounter the matches, and the- immediately set up a fusilade that arouses the sleeping clerk ami enables him to capture ( lie man who oats and runs away. New York iVess "Every Day- Talk." '"boiera Germs i: ?he iia'. It 13 extremely unpleasant to know that Dr. J. J. ivinyoun, of the Marine Hospital service, has proved that tho Asiatic cholera spirilla thrives and reproduces ad libitum in the water of New York bay. Hence the dis charges of cholera patients, when they reach tho tide or sea water, do not lose their dan gerous charai-ter. On the contrary, the germs will reproduce and be left on the fiats nt low tide, where they will have the sun's heat and plenty of filth to revel in.
