"Throe ot'tho Ntirma's Crew Drowned-- One Woman and Two Bien-accident Occurs During a heavy Fog-Crew of the Jack Taken Off. " Alpena , Mich. , June 1.-During a "heavy fog last night The Canadian steamer Jack , bound down with lumber. Collided with the steel steamer Norma off the Menomonee river , opposite Mid- -die island. The Norma immediately Sunk. The cools , wheelsman and fireman were drowned. The barge Sicken was near by and picked up the remainder of the crew. The Norma was valued at $200,000 and insured for $175,000. The 7aek Is afloat , but badly damaged. Tugs have left here to bring her in. The Norma sunk in 300 feet of water. The survivors from the Norms. were 1 brought here by the steamer Sicken. ! ' . The Sicken was less than a half mile .away from the colliding boats , and the crash was distinctly heard through the 'fog. She hastened in the direction from .from which the noise of the crash came , : and soon sighted a lifeboat and life- raft containing the crew of the Norma. Captain Stratton , who was in command of the Norma , stated that he had been run down by an unknown lumber propeller - peller , which struck his boat on the port side , just forward of the mainmast - -mast , cutting her almost in two. The Norma filled immediately. He stated that all efforts possible were made to set the men Into the lifeboat , but three people-the cook , a fireman and a deck J hand , were not quick enough in leav- 1 ang the wreck , and went down with It. After rescuing the Norma's crew the : Sicken cruised around in the fog to find ' ' the craft with which the Norma had been in collision. After searching a .considerable time the boat was located 4 : and was found to be the Canadian propeller - peller Jack , loaded with rock elm. Her entire bow was stove in , and the boat was full of water. The captaipf the : Sicken sent a boat to the Jack and took I off ten of her crew. The captain , both mates , and both engineers refused to .desert the ship , and were left on board. 1 The life-saving' crew at Little Island ; : and the tug Ralph were sent out looking - ! ing for the Jack as soon as the Sicken ' ! ; reported the loss. It is feared that her t i cargo will become so water-soaked that ' I she will go down before the life-savers ( " ' can find her. The Norma belonged to the Menominee - nee Transit company and was of the best type of lake freight carriers. She I was built in 1890 , measured 1,570 net 'tons and Is rated in this year's Inland Lloyds at $160,000 , although her cost exceeded - ceeded $200,000. WILL UPHOLD BIIti1ETALLiSM. hairman Carter Forecasts the Republican - lican Attitude In 1896. New York , June 1.-Thomas H. Carter - ter , chairman of the republican national - tional committee , in a public statement , 1 says : "In 1596 the republican party will stand for the restoration of bimetalilsm eon a substantial and enduring basis. r There may be differences of opinion in i the party on the tariff schedules , but not upon the principle of protection. 'There will be differences of opinion as to the best course to pursue to secure : kthe free and unlimited coinage of both gold and silver at a fixed ratio , but there will be no difference of opinion .as to the desirability of bringing about : that result. "Upon one question there will be neither difference of opinion as to the ; general principle involved nor as to the means to be employed. That is with : reference to a vigorous , thoroughly .American foreign policy. I am persuaded - ed that the republican national conven- ; ton will pledge the party anew and with 'the greatest earnestness and force to , tliis line of policy.

I want to warn you .all to keep out of bad company. " His voice was very strong and clear. Jeffrey was not so cool and showed signs of nervousness , but both mounted the scaffold without effort. Jeffrey also spoke , saying : "I am going to die for a crime I never committed. I never done , . it. The preparations for the execution were then quickly completed , the trap sprung and In twelve minutes the condemned - demned men were pronounced dead.

MORTON'S ILLNESS. Chauncey Depew Says It May Take him Out of the Presidential Field. New York , Juiie 1.-Chauncey M. De- pew was much affected when he heard of Gov. Morton being overcome by the heat. He was asked whether it would have any effect upon Gov. Morton's presidential aspirations. "It may have , " said Mr. Depew. "In deed , it probably will. The case Is very analogous to that of Mr. Blaine , who had a sunstroke , if you will remember , in 1876 on Pennsylvania avenue , Washington - ington , and that sunstroke was the beginning - ginning of all his physical troubles. Before - fore that he had been a strong and vigorous - orous man. I hope that this will prove to have been nothing but a slight weakness - ness brought on by the heat , but at the governor's age it may prove serious. " BICYCLE RACE A FRAUD.

The Little Girl at Sea-Colossal Chil- dren-Origin of Punch and Judy- Bessle's Fright-The Fire Eaters of Paris-Ollie's Observation. 1 V k I HERE WAS A little girl on board , W h p couldn't stand the constant - stant motion. "I wiss , mamma , " she one day said , "There was some pavements in the ocean. " Shewatchedthe heaving billows roll , And shook her head , and murmured sadly , "If they'd play still pond , 'sted of tag , It wouldn't make me feel so'badly. " Before her stretched the white-capped waves , Behind , a white-capped nurse maid followed , , "I'm better now , " she naively said , ; Because you see , I've just unswal- lowed. " -Bessie Chandler , in The Housewife. Ressie's Fright. "What is the matter , darling ? " asked Mrs May , as the door of her sewing- room opened and her little Bessie , all in tears , with her cheeks flushed and terror in her eyes , was led in by her two cousins. "What is the matter ? But Bessie only screamed the louder. "She won't tell us what it Is , " said the elder cousin , Janie. "We were swing- mouth and she was shaking all over , Janie brought a basin , mamma a glass of water with myrrh in it , and pretty soon Bessie felt better. Then papa told her to feel the places where the first teeth came out , and she felt something hard. "Are they my bones ? " she gasped. "They are the second teeth pushing out , " said papa. "I am so thankful ! " said Bessie. Then papa kissed her and went back 'to his study , and mamma went on : "I told you you had twenty-eight teeth , " she said , "and , after awhile , when you are older , you will have thirty- two-four big back-teeth that are called wisdom-teeth. It depends on yourself to keep these teeth sound and white all your life. You must clean them after every meal , in the morning and before you go to bed. I will give you the proper brushes and powders , and you must use a quill toothpick , and now and then run flossjsilk between the teeth to get out small particles. " Bessie was much interested. "You must never crack nuts or fruit- kernels with your teeth , " said mamma , "or hold such things as pins or bodkins or knitting-needles with them. Do as I tell you , and your second teeth will be as handsome as papa's. " Mr. May had unusually fine-teeth , and Bessie felt pleased. After awhile she began to think she might go out and play again , and the girls were swinging once more , when Sarah Smith , a schoolmate - mate , looked over the fence , and the story had to be told to her. "Oh , my ! " she laughed. "How funny tb be scared. I wasn't. I've got all mine in a box. Brother Jack pulls them out with pack-thread. See here , I'll show them to you. " She put her hand in her pocket and pulled out a little button box , and in it were a number of teeth , mostly crooked , little black things. Bessie shuddered , Janie looked disgusted - gusted , Kitty giggled , and Sarah ran away , laughing at theni all. "I think it seems like an Indian with THE FIRE EATERS OF PARIS. ' . + h I r + ( I \\i1'1\ \ \ \ m i1fl ' I' ' 1 I i k Y' La Nature prints a description of a very realistic description of fire-eating very realistic exhibition of "fire-eat- ing" given by two young Americans in Paris. The fire-eaters , who have been exhibiting in the hall of the Olympia , at Paris , excel in their line anything of the kind that has been seen up to the present. Then not only swallow flames , but handle fire and cause it to flash from their fingers. These fire-eat- ers are two young Americans who have cultivated physics and electricity con- siderably. When they perform their experiments - periments they are clad in a tight-fitting costume of a red color , which represents that of the devil of fairy sce ies. The stage upon which they appear remains but dimly lighted during the entire time of their presence thereon. At the back of it there is a piece of furniture that resembles an office desk seen from the rear , but , no detail of this object is distinguishable. The performers go behind - hind it , and seem to make some preparation - ration with their hands there , and then ing , and all of a sudden she threw herself - self on the grass and began to cry like that. " "Tell mother , Bessie , " pleaded Mrs. May. "Why , how frightened she seems ! I think I must send for the doctor. " At that , Bessie made an effort to control - trol her sobs , and gasped forth : "I-'m not s-ick. " "Why do you cry so , then ? " asked Mrs. May. "Take a drink of water. There , now , what is it pet ? " "My-my teeth ! " sobbed Bessie. "My teeth are loose ; They are going to break off ! Oh , oh , oh ! they'll break off and I can't eat any more ! " "My front ones , " sobbed Bessie. Mrs. May put the point of her finger on the two little white front teenth , and , sure enough , they were both loose in the pink gums. "You poor child , " she said. ' 'Why does it frighten you so ? Don't you know it must happen ? These are your first teeth-milk teeth , s 'ne people call them -and the reason they are loose is because - cause right behind them are the other good , strong teeth , fit to bite harder things with ; teeth that will last you most of your life , if you take good care of them. " "Are you certain-sure , mamma ? " Bessie - sie asked. "Of course I am , " said mamma. "I remember my first one coming out" said Cousin Janie. "I had to go to the dentist to have it pulled , and he gave me something nice to rinse my mouth with ; then the new teeth came. " Show me your new teeth , said Bes- sie. Janie happened to have very handsome - some teeth , and Bessie was comforted by the sight of them. "Perhaps mine wont come through , " she sighed. I am not in the least afraid of that , said mamma. "You will change all your teeth , one after another ; you have twen- ty-eight now. " Janie and Kittyy put their fingers in their mouths and began to count ; and Bessie did the same , but soon began to cry again : "Two are loose ! They' jog about ! " "You will feel better when they are really out , " said mamma. "Janie , ask your uncle to come here. " Mr. May , who was a clergyman , was writing his sermon in his study ; but he came upstairs at once , and listened to the story of Bessie's teeth. "Nothing to be frightened about , daughter , " he said. Then he took Bessie - sie on his knee. "Let me feel them , " he raid. The next moment there was a twitch and a scream. Another twitch and another - other scream. There they were in papa's hand , and there eras a little blood in Bessie' , AtprW , . . they come to the front of the stage and cause very thin but brilliant flames to dart from their fingers. Bringing these flames near their mouths they seem to swallow them and then extinguish them between their teeth. When they touch each other's hands a crackling Is heard and long flames dart forth for a few seconds from the tips of their fingers , which they continuously move. In a subsequent experiment without putting anything in their mouths , they blow with energy and a brilliant flame makes its exit from between their lips. They shot forth a jet of flame for a considerable length of time , which certainly - tainly exceeds half a minute. While these singular phenomena are occurring the spectators absolutely smell no odor. It is probable that the combustion is due to a very volatile essence , but we are unable either to state precisely the nature of it or to give an exact explanation - planation of the experiments performed. The men keep their secret , and when they are questioned remain mute. scalps at his belt , " said Janie , "to carry old teeth about. " "That girl is dreadful' " said Kitty. At supper Bessie couldn't eat anything - thing hard , but she had some nice bread and milk , and in a week or two , two large , beautiful white teeth showed themselves when she smiled ; and she had quite gotten over her fright , and went quietly to papa to have her milk- teeth pulled out when the new ones pushed them from behind. Colossal Children. The quaint little town of St. Nicholas , in East Flanders , boasts the possession of two children of such extraordinary abnormal growth as to put completely in the shade all similar infant prodigies of the past or present. These veritable Brobdignagian youngsters are boy and girl. The elder , Master Clement Smedst is 15 years of age and weighs no less than 420 pounds (30 stone ) ; the circumference - ference of his body is 6 feet 6 inches ; he measures 36 inches around the leg and 28 inches around the arm , His sister Bertha is 8 years old and turns the scale at 224 pounds (16 stone ) . In spite of their enormous dimensions , their activity - tivity is remarkable , for they trip and skip with all the agility of other children - dren of an equal age. It is an astonishing - ing sight to see these infant mountains of humanity romping about in country lanes with other children of the village. One would imagine them to be the offspring - spring of a race of giants , so high do they tower over the heads of their little playfellows. Their appearance is decidedly - cidedly interesting , both having extremely - tremely handsome and regular features. Bertha , like other girls of tender years , delights in nursing a doll , which seems ludicrouslyy out of place and proportion in the arms of the young giantess. The couple are attracting the attention of the countryy around , and on fine days crowds of people flock into the quiet little town in order to catch a glimpse of these colossal children.
