The kiln, then, is an immense circular structure over a bunâ€" ered feet. high, and composed of strong , plates are. The bottom third is lined with lire-brick eighteen inches thick. and is about thirty feet in diameter. ;\lioVe the brick work the kiln tapers for another third or more of its height, and then runs up straight to the top. There is a grating near the bottom to l support the burning material, small square holes about live feet from the ground to let in air, and on the side towards the river, where the batik shelves rapidly. there is a brick arch- way through which to rake out the ashes. Thirty feet from the ground on the side towards the mill. which is con- siderably over a hundred feet distant, there is a large opening. said to be (i x l! feet ; and below this opening is a san ofspout or trough of iron, with high sides and a bottom that slopes up wards. This is to catch the refuse, which is brought from beneath the floor of the mill up an inclined plane by means of an endless chain, to which are bolted at regular intervals small pieces of liarilvvood technically called “ buck- cts.” The. elevation up which the chain travels lnis sides a few inches high. and a peculiarly shaped bottom, -.alenlated to facilitate the transit of the refuse ; but nevertheless it sometimes falls to work smoothly, and one of the hands in attendance has to go up to remove an obstruction or tratnp down the sawdust «c. This, though the chain moves slowly, is a dangerous business, and last Saturday forenoou Mr. Martin Kelly, who was “ riding the chain,” as it is called. had both of his feet caught. by one ofthe buckets and was thrown l forward on to his knees, in which po~i< tion he was pushed upward and onward § towards the entrance to the kiln. lle struggled and shouted, and his cries were echoed by all who witnessed his predicament; and, while two or three rushed up the. ascent and tried in vain to liberate him. others flew to throw off the belt which drives the elevator. For the purpose, ol'doing this with safety a crooked stick is kept ; but as the stick had hidden itself aild could not be found, one of the men threw his arms around the belt and pulled it from the drum to which it. imparts motion. T\ll- other instaut’s delay would have been fatal to .‘lr. Kelly, who had reached the top of the elevator, and, having got his lelt foot free, had turned overland : was lying on his back in the iron trough or spout above mentioned. with his lll‘fltl fairly in the entrance to the kiln. Had the chain moved a few inches further his foot would have been liberated and he Would have dropped into the lit-rv furnace below: and his situation w“.- sh precarious that the men who took him i out tied a rope around his body before ‘ thev ventured to raise the bucket that i ‘ held him.

Wliissile has been used to mad dogs all his lifeâ€"that is to say, he has seen a good many of them ; and what he doesn't know about hydrophobia. could be written on a postage statan He at once decided that the animal had the symptoms all right enough, and ought not. to be allowed to live; so be borrowed )lr. Cunningham’s rifle, and, mounting a pile of canal stones close to which the dog lay wriggling, pointed the weapon downward and sent a bullet through his head. Genuine rabies is by no means so common a disease as many suppose ; but the mere suspicion of a dog being mad excites such fear and horror that probably no one will blame Mr. Whissile for acting so promptly, especially as his victitn was ol'a morosc. unsoeiable disposition and anything but a popular canine character. Theft From a Waggon. Last Saturday night, between nine and ten o’clock, Mr. John A. .l'lllis’s son George, and James Jackson, the junior clerk, left the store for home, having with them a basket containing 52 87 Worth of groceries which had been ordered by Mr. Dukes, of lieduer's l’oint. \Vlien they stopped at Mr. (lakes's and turned around to get the basket, it was not. to be found in the waggon, some person having stolen it, probably while the horse was walking across the bridge. The lads then drove back to the store and reported what had happened, and, Mr. Uakes's order having bet-n duplicated, again started for home, taking with them Mr. John 5 Jordan, who lives on the next fartn to .‘lr. l‘lllis's. The night was so dark that. the horse, while crossing the bridge, collided with a team coming from the opposite direction, but. no harm was done, as the animals were all walking. .‘lr. Jordan jumped out. in order to get the vehicles salely past each other, aiid. happening to look around, saw a man standing close to Mr. l‘illis's waggon. lle disappeared so quickly that heiwas not recognized. but the supposition is that he was the individual who stole the first lot of groceries, and that he had returned for the hecond consign- ment that he felt sure would Come a- long.

Robert Cain, for- merly of Feuclon Falls, was here this week on a visit to his friends. He says that Midland, which for the past lbw years has been his home, is growing rapidly and is in many respects far ahead of the Falls. Every year sees a great addition to its population and the number of its buildings, business is booming and money is plentiful. Mr. )ain's numerous acquaintances in this locality will be glad to hear that he is looking well and doing well also.....\lrs.

AN ATTEMPT TO RI.0\T VP THE NEW PARLIAMENT BUILDINGS. Qt'EREt‘. Oct. ll.â€"-About 12:30 to. dav an exp‘nsinn occurred at the new ' I’arliimcnt Buildings. destroying a con ‘siderable portion of the masonry and i l l ! l i l l l windows of the new building. which is t I just being rooted in. The explosion was f riagc litre and all other exl‘nnses. 'llieF ‘ “n m“: "‘l'lm-‘Ul "" ll“? “0" ll!“ 1"”1" left hire in two of Mr. H nry Brooks's , of the engine used for hoisting materi il, but this proved not to be the case. neith- er can it be attributed to gas. The gen. eral imprtssion appears to be that the explosion was caused by dynamite. The workmen all being away at dinner, only one man was injured, and he escaped with a slight cut from a piece of stone. The shock was very severe and was felt all (o'er the city. Numerous windows of houses in the vicinity of the explosion are badly shattered. At. 3 p. u). a sec- ond explosion occurred at. the l‘arliaâ€" ment House. but no damage of any con- sequence has been done to the buildâ€" ings. The carpenters working at the buildings say they saw a box lying all morning close to the wall where the first explosion took place, but they supposed it was placed there by the plumbers. After the explosion no trace of the box could be found, and it is thought to have contained dynamite and an infer- nal machine. The second explosion was about thirty feet. from the place where the first one took place. The new build- ing is said to be so badly cracked from the first shock that it is feared half of it will have to be taken down and re- built. After the first. explosion men were sent all through the buildings. to look for any more suspicious boxes, but found nothing. The cause of the sec- ond explosion is as great. a mystery as that of the first. LATER.â€"Tllottgll nearly a week has elapsed and a large reward has been of- feredâ€"$1,000 by the authorities and $50“ by the coutractors,â€"no clue to the perpetrator of the crime has been dis- covered. Therc is no longer any doubt. that the explosions were caused by dy- namite, but the reasons for the attempt to destroy the buildings are shrouded in mystery. The damage done to them is estimated at $25,000. co.â€" Twenty-one Cars Smashed. TWO FREIGHT TRAINS COLLIIIE NEAR LONDON EAST. Loxnox, Oct. liltli.~â€"A collision in- volving great loss of property occurred about. half my between Waubuno bridge and London East shortly after 1 o’clock yesterday morning, between No. 39 west-bound freight and a special in charge of Conductor Fulford. The at- mosphere was exceedingly foggy. and it is said that. the headlights could not be seen fifty yards ahead. The special was going at a moderate speed, but. the two trains came together with a terrible crush. Most of the flat cars were shat- tered into splinters and the remains tossed down a twenty-foot embankment. at. one side. Seine six or eight box cars were also demolished, four or five of them rolling down the bank. The two engines reared up on end, and were only kept from falling back by the pres- sure from behind. The wreck was most complete, about: twcnty-ouc cars being shattered. 'l‘wo train hands were in- he already has one of the best in the jumdv onelmving sever,” ribs broken. county.

Sax Fuxxctsco, Oct. 13.â€"â€"-Yokolia- ma advices oi the 27th ult. say that llegroote. Belgian minister to Japan, died on September 16th. ‘ The French Catholic mission refused to bury him because he was a mason. On Septemâ€" ber 15th Yokohama and Tokio were visited by a terrible typhoon. In the latter city three thousand houses were destroyed and twenty people killed. The loss of life at sea is appalling and no estimate could be made of the num- ber. The typhoon was followed by an- other ol'great force on the 17th. It is believed that the Franco-Chinese war will not interfere with the revision of Japanese treaties. A conference will be opened, as soon as the foreign minis- ter receives instructions. .-. Life in Arkansas. A Little Rock letter in tho Cincin- nati Enquirer thus describes life in Ar- kansas: Long days of doing nothing beget. little energy. Little food is need- ed, and less new clothing. In the fall and winter the crops are gathered and turned over to the merchant, who holds a mortgage. To sum up the labour of years: 1 was on the place yesterday. and found an old double log house so nearly rotted down that it is propped up all around, the windows were with- out glass, the door-frames. without doors; the children could pass out between the logs in any direction; the lady and friend were sitting in tho “ gallery," a space between the two cabins, on split chairs, contentedly “dipping” enulf. while the lord and master, in dirty. be- gritncd clothes, sat under a tree doing nothing, but looking happy as the dav is long. Fences rotted down, and lean pigs with “ pokes " on them. two sorry- lranking horses trying to pick a living from short grass. and little children, half a dOch or more. with but a single garment on, were liilt'iily playing in the sheds. The lamb. originally poor. with but two or three inches of soil on the prairie, were worn out and abatr: doucd. . . .--_.... 9 . .._.--..- _. Effect of Cholera on Paper.

A Snake-Bitten Farmer’s Nerve. The Pittsburg Dispatch says 2â€"Thc l other morning while Jacob Feyler. a farmer living on the Washington pike, about a mile below Temperaneeville. was out in his field cutting corn he was bitten on the second finger of his left hand by a rattlesnake. The finger be» gun to swell rapidly, and in order to save his life Mr. Fey-ler laid the finger on a rail. and, grasping his corn knife. brOUght it. down with all his tort-e. sev- ering the member near the knuckle. The action was so prompt that. the pois .- son had not time to permeate his sys . tern. Mr. Feyler. without assistance. tied up the wound. and walked to his - home near by and sent for a physician. ‘ The injured man became very weak af- ter the operation, but it is thought he will soon be able to be about. . ~â€" 4â€" Fight Over a Coffin. l l l l l l l l l l A Columbus, 6a., dispatch says :â€" Nancy Morton, colored, died in Pike county, where her funeral was attended. The brother and husband of the dead woman have been life-long enemies While the funeral sermon was in pro gress the brother Whipped out his knife, and, rushing upon .‘lorton, laid his left leg open from the knee to the thigh. inâ€" flicting a wound which is apt to result fatally. Both men began a handdu- hand encounter, and several of their friends rushed in to separate them During‘the encounter the collin, a pine box, was thrown from its props and fell to the floor with a crash. ()ne of the dead woman's sisters had a large piece of flesh carved out of her hand while attempting to disarm her brother. and several others were more or less serious- ly cut. .Thc congrt a panic, but no one Both men were placed under arrest. and the obsequies proceeded. lion stampeded in â€"â€"â€"â€"‘â€".4.0 A Barrie drug'rist has been fined 32” for illegal whisky selling.
