The firm of Flower Sc Anthony has
passed away. 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.

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

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

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.
