Last week Mr. An thony retired from the business, his partner being the purchaser. Af fairs seemed to run along smoothly until Monday forenoon, when I. F. Flower closed the doors hy virtue of a chattel mortgage he held on the stock. The fact of the closing up has been speculated on by many people, but the facts as near as we can learn, are, that the boys were in bad shape and that P. F. had at different times pulled them out of the hole, they protecting him finally with a mortgage on the stock. Weeping Water Kagle.

A Violent Wind and Rain Sto-m Kills aad Injures Many Persons and Does Much Dam age to Property. Rnin Fell in Torrents. DiLi:th Minn., July 10. A violent storm of wind and rain burnt over this city th is afternoon about 2:MO. doing considerable damage, such sis flooding cellar.-, blowing down outbuildings, tearing down wires of all kinds, besides tearing out several blocks of new pavement just being laid on Fourth street. The rain fell in torrents and the precipitation was three-fourths of au inch to the hour. At oie time it rained 1.03 inches in live minutes, the water flowing like a stream over tlu streets. THE INJURED. H. W. ScoKlELD, single, leg and atrm broken; body crushed; will probably die. MIKE KEITH, very badly injured about the head and chest; some ribs Iwoken; may die. Four others were injured, but not seriously. There were twenty-six men at work on the building, and their es cape from death is a marvel. Five buildings were blown down at the steel plant in the south part of the city, and a section of one of the barge works building was carried away. Chimneys were blown down and considerable minor damage was done. There is no means of ac curately giving the amount of dam age, except in the demolished building, which had had about $0,(MX) worth of work put on it. At a Lite hour to-night the dead were reported as follows: JOHN T. LATER, married, aged forty-six. CHARLES LUCIUS, single, twenty-four. HERMAN PAUSSEY. single twenty-six. AN UNKNOWN MAN. about thirty-live. John Scholield died front injuries received in the back and broken limbs. Among the more serious are John Hrowne, broken legs; John Long, internally injured, will likely die; William Semple, Dick Clark nnd a number of others. The storm lasted about thirty minutes and distroyed property worth many thousands of dollars. SIMPLY FLATTENED OUT. When the storm came up Moss Carpenter Gross called to his men. who were working on the three story building at Third street and Lamborn avenue, to get out of the building, and twelve jumped from windows. At the same moment a number of passersby ran into the structure to escape the storm. As they entered, the building, without an instant's tremor or warning, collapsed, burying seventeen men. The structure did not move a foot from its foundation. It simply flat tened out. as though struck a terri ble blow from above. Three tin ners on the roof remained where they were and escaped serious in jury, though the fall was thirty eight feet. HUNDRED SAW THE CATASTROPHE and the work of rescue began at once. The ruins stood tiot six feet above the ground and the roof seemed to cover the whole, greatly retarding the work of rescue. It was ati hour before the first bod)', that of Herman Roussey, was re covered. He was found in a sitting position, bent nearly double, with splinters driven into his hand and almost every bone in his body was broken. John Latter was found on his back with four timbers lying across him, cutting his bod)' into as many pieces. IT WAS A HORRIBLE SIGHT, and the other workmen sickened in removing the body. Schofieldwas found in what evidently had been a room on the third floor and he was still alive, though he died as soon as the weight was removed from him, his back being broken. It was over an hour before another body was found. The two injured men were then gotten out. Semple was wedged between two upright timbers and that saved his life. The largest line of patent nied-i cines will be found at Brown & Bar rett's tf A Pleasant Evening. A very pleasant evening was spent last night at the resilience of J. N. Summers. Yesterday being Mins Elsie Moore's birthday Mrs. Summers gave a party in honor of the event, and early in the evening the company assembled and high live was indulged in during the evening, after which refreshments were served, and at a late hour the company departed.

Call at the Fifth street Jewelry Store. tf Geo. Vass Mongol Mechanics. A few months ago the foreign residents of Foochow, in the Chinese province of Fo-Kien, were treated to the curious spectacle of a wheelbarrow apotheosis. Hundreds of almond eyed admirers gathered about the novel monocycle, turned it over and over, trundled it along amid shouts of exultation and surrounded its proprietor with the liveliest demon strations of approval. That enthusiastic appreciation of mechanical achievements seems not easy to reconcile with the fact that four or five new China railways were demolished by an excited mob, but the truth seems to be that the mechan ism of a locomotive passes the compre hension of the average Mongol, and that the motion of a steam engine is apt to be ascribed to witchcraft. Philadelphia Times. Saved a Girl and Himself Also. A remarkable display of courage and quick thinking was given at Westbury, L. I., Thursday, by Robert Burgess. A young woman fell from the railroad sta tion in front of an express train that was about 200 yards distant. Burgess quick ly rolled the imperiled woman off the tracks under the platform, leaving him self with insufficient time to get up and out of the way. He realized his danger instantly, and throwing himself full length between the tracks the train passed without harming him in the least. Exchange. Two Sights in Boston. I may be oversensitive, but two things that I saw yesterdav struck me as beincr rather peculiar. The first was a police man in full uniform with an umbrella in his hand, and the second one of TTtipIp Sam's mail wagons being used to move furmtnre. Boston News. Kales for I) res. Dress yourself fine where others are fine, and plain where others are plain; but take care that vonr clothes ar wn made and fit you, for otherwise they will give you a very awirwara air.
