A New York despateh says ; Eleven people are dead and 30 wouuded as the re- nult of the bomb explosion at the Italian celebration last night. The Italian colony aveitling in the neighborhood of 13eyden 8,nd Ntrasau streets have for several days been preparing for the celebration of the feast of rat Rocco. Alfonso Mario, a saloon -keeper who on account of his wealth, is known as "King Alfonso," was the chief mover in the arrangements. Aplatform for musicians was erected in the street next •door to the saloon. A statue of St. Rocco was next to the platform. The houses were decorated and at nightfall Chinese lanterns were 'lighted, The band played, fireworks were exhibited awl a great crowd blockaded the Area. A big copper casing mortar was used for the bombs. These were filled with colored fire and elect into the air where they 'burst, throwing out a shower of various colored sparks. It was this mortar that exploded and caused all the harm. The bomb -casing is a,bout.5 inches in diameter eaid 30 inches long. About 11 p. rn. a large bomb was put in the mortar and lighted. It is supposed that the bomb exploded in it. There were hundreds of men, woznen and children stendine around watching with „great expectancy. When it exploded the ,air was filled with the ehrieks of the injured levand dying. Intense confusion fcillowed. A platoon of police were on the scone, and they had great difficulty in preventing the frightened multitude from trampling the in„, eured to death. The explosion is supposed to have been due to an overcharge of powder. The names of the dead are: Michael .An- maloria, 19 years old; Charles Stewart Caro - lin, 12; Michael O'Neil, 13 ; Paequalli Rezzilino, Bred Weiss, 15 ; Guiseppi Yar- nzo, Frank Miller, 8 ; Arthur Flynn, 11 ; Lizzie Hughes, 18 '• Lizzie Murphy, 19 ; Henry Burgesser, 13. Rumors were Aroad that there had been ,dynamite in the bomb, but this is denied. " LOCO MS NOthel.•" "1 Waft born in Indiany," aye a stranger lank end elite.

The Grotesque relic:is with, Its Dusky • Asthmatic whisper. Four or five mangrove trees in the vicinity ef Bird Key were occupied by a colony of brown pelicans. The nests were a simple 3nass of refuse, twigs and seaweed, and the flotsam and jetsam of the ocean, upon which were perched two large blood -marked eggs. A young pelican may be considered one of the comical things in nature—a grotesque, ill -proportioned animal, a medi- al do -do, and like that famous bird, of which an old writer said it was "as re- markable to the eye as to the stomach." The voice of the pelican but adds to its _absurdity, being a husky asthmatic whisper, writes a correspondent of the San Francisco Chronicle. This patient bird, with its solemn, decor - aux bearing, is a victim to the laughing es.enall. The laughing gull, beinglazy and hi heavy, labors at a disadvantage n fishing, So prefers to borrow fro•aa its companion, the pelican. The operation, which I have -often, observed, as well as its sequel with the frigate bird, is as follows: The pelican like along at a distance of about 20 feet from the water, occasionally precipitating 'itself upon a school of small fry that, not, 'being able to see an object directly over- head, often become victims, and are cap- tured by the long bill and pouch. Having leaught the sardines, the pelican rights itself, and for a seconi floats serenely upon the surface, wagging its diminutive tail in s satisfaction. To swallow the game, it tosses itss beak upward, which throws the fish from the pouch between the bills, the next move- ment being to swallow. But here the laughing gull becomes a party to the performance. He has been a watchful follower for some time, and now slights upon the ' pelican's head, or some- times its back, the pelican uttering no pro - teat and apparently not objecting in the least. As the tempting morsel is tossed by the pelican the gull leans forward and deftly plucks it from the long bill, and either cooly swallows it then and there, while standing upon the broad back of the victim, ser flies away with the stolen fish, uttering the victorious "ha, ha," that may attract the attention of the frigate bird, which, in turn, proceeds to rob the gull.

Three Fishers. Tbree fishers went strolling away to the •streato., To the babbling brook where the fishes swim. Of speckled beauties they all did dream, And each felt certain they'd bito for him. For men will tramp from morning till night, An suffer the fierce Mosquito's bite, And drink to stop their groaning. Three fishers strolled into the market place, 'Twas some two hours after the sun went . down, .Aucl a look of gloom was on each man's face, For at empty baskets they each did frown. For men nia,y fish; but may get no bite, And tired and huagry go home at night, And vent their wrath in groaning. Throe fishers strolled into the beer Saloon, Where the crowd sat round and the gas was bright, And each gayly whistled a merry tune, And showecl his fish with assumed delight. For mon will ash, yea, and men will lie, And boast of catching the fish they buy, While inwardly they're groaning. A Dignified Answer. A north side teacher was getting the new pupils tabulated.

Nileinems to the sick end the afflicted is euch a commendable virtue that its exercise eevers a multitude of sing, yet discretion ehould go with it. According to a Brooklyn paper, one woman in that city diesents from the idea that it is true charity to take flowers and books to the hospitals. " If I were sick," she remarked, and in the public ward of a hospital, I should, it is poeeible, be very miserable but why should my misery be accontueted by having women eit down and read to me about the tortures of hell ? Or have them lay on my bed half - withered flowers, or by giving me Bibles or buns ? It is obsoletely tree that a poor old German, who is in one of the public hospitals, wanted a bun the other day, and thet the visitor would not give it to him unless he first took a Bible. He could pot read or speak one word of English, but he took the Bible and got the bun, and if that woman don't take the cake for being a consummate fool, then the world has a larger store of them than even I had ithegined. It is no charity to go in and int down and read. the Bible to sick people. It would be a good deal more of a charity to take an entertaining book, read a little from it, and say a few cheerful words, and then when the poor wretched body was better, think over if it were better to say a little about the poor, wretched soul. One of the cleverest doctors in Bellevue told me that if anybody who had plenty of money wanted to do a really good work there was room for it. And this ie what he suggested: Men come here with broken legs, hurt in all sorts of ways, men who aro laid up for months. They would get well in half the time if their minds were easy, Now, when a man is brought here, if some of the people who want to do good would come to him and say: My friend, have you a wife or a mother, ? Have you any children ? And is there ate body t care for them and give them bread and butter while you are ill?' and then, when he told the state of affairs, for the Samaritan to look after that wife and those children until he cou.c1 come out and care for them himself. There is a work for you. It is better than carry- ing around half -faded, sickly -smelling flowers. It's better than buns and Bibles. It is what the Bible teaches'and the ex- perience of most people its this world is, we tied it easier to give away black and white editions of the Bible than to show its teach- ings as man to man, and brother to brother. Charity may cover a multitude of sins, but there are more crimes, more worrying little deviltries committed in the name of charity than in the name of any other virtue. "A woman thinks she is charitable when she asks a man what he thinks about the future. Now, when he has a raging fever, and every separate and individual bone in his bocly is aching, a.nd his eyes feel like balls of fire the future doesn't trouble him in the least; it is the present that he is interested in ; and a good sponging off with cool alcohol, the straightening up of a bed, and the giving of a veritable drink of cold water is a far greater charity than pictur- ing to that man what he would look like dressed up as an angel, playing on a harp In his present condition he has no use for harps. Just remember that I don t want to say one word to keep any goon woman from trying to do her best, but I wish a few of them—just a few—would be a little bit more practical, and remembei how, when they are ill, their own husbands and sons want to be treated, and credit other men with having the same human feelings. A sick man is always a sad and sorry sight—especially if he isn't very sick. He has it firmly planned out that he is going to die. He thinks nobody ever had such pains as he did, and from the very first takes an aggressive position toward the doe tor, regarding him as a personal enemy, rather than a kind friend." — Two hundred styles of locomotives are made.

Homely women are always more enter teeming than pretty specimens of the fair sex. The latter • rely on their beauty to carry them through the world, and it gene- rally does until they get married, when it commonly fails them. The homely girl, knowing she has no beauty to rely on, goes to work and improves her mind ; she learns some accomplishment, becomes a clever artist or pianist, reads a good deal 8,nd so learns to converse readily and well. She is better company than the pretty girl, for the beauty does not think it worth her trouble to be entertaining as she has spent all her efforts in trying to look pretty. The beauty may make a good wife, but the chances are that she will learn nothing after mar- riage a,nc1 so will soon become dull and uniuteresting.

A NEW method of generating electricity to light railway cars is proposed by Mr. J. F. McElroy, of New York. The storage battery system has slot proved to be an un- qualified success. The batteries are heavy, occupy considemble, space and reguire con- stant care. Mr. NIcElroy's plan is to apply to the axle of the engine a cylindrical dy- namo which he has invented and which weighs less than 300 pounds. In order to provide for light while the engine is stand- ing a small storage battery is hidden away in each car and automatically comes into circuit when the train is brought to a standstill. This battery is charged during the running of the train and is of sufficient capacity to light a car for six hours without re-cbarging.

A Constantinople cable says: The death of the man who calls himself the rightful head of the Christian Church universal is rare, because advancing age commonly gives the nictunbent of the Greele Patriarchal chair time to resign before the fatal hour. Hence the funeralof the Patriareh Dionysius called together an enormous concourse of people. Along the whole line of four or five miles traversed by the procession the streeta were packed with men, women and children who might never have an oppor- tunity- to see this pageant again. Turkish troops formed the escort of the procession, but were not used to protect it from the mob of Greek sight -seers. It had hardly left the Patriarchal Church at the Fanar when its orderly structure was annihilated by the rush of the rabble bent on seeing the awful thing which the priests had brought out of the church. It was nothing that prince and sheen:eke"- bishop and boatman, diplomat in cocked hat and pache in massive gold embroidery struggled together and with the pall -bearers for the right of way. The awful thing, the haunt. inera horror of the spectacle, was the osten- tatious parade of the decaying corpse of the white-haired olcl man, crowned with gold, bedecked with ecclesiastical finery, tied, like a criminal who has been executed by electricity, into a chair, with head left to hang noddieg on one side, with one hancl held aloft by strings in grim caricature of the attitude of benediction, and with at- tendants spraying perfumery over the ghastly thing in order to conceal its odor. As if this was not enough, when after several hours of such exposure in the streets the corpse reached the place of sepulture, proceedings were stopped in order that the robes of the defunct might be saved. The poor dead patriarch was thoroughly stripped of his garments. Dretsed in a bare white shroud he was seated on a stone in the coreer of his lest resting -place and the place was closed up. Then at length the men who had teken such liberties with his body retired, satisfied with their last homage to their spiritual head. No, son, don't marry a widow.

The Bush of American Securities Causes a Gold Outflow.

It should not be allowed to continue, as in its debility the system is especially liable to serious attacks of illness. It is re- markable how beneficial Hood's Sarsa- parilla is in this enervating state. Pos- sessing just those elements which the system needs and readily seizes, this medicine purifies the blood, and im- parts a feeling of strength and self-con- fidence. Hood's Sarsaparilla is the best remedy for that weakness which pre- vails at change of season, climate or life. S Sarsaparilla "I believe it is to the use of Hood's Sarsaparilla, that I owe my present health. In the spring, I got so com- pletely run down I could not eat or sleep, and all the dreaded diseases of life seemed to have a mortgage on my system. I was obliged to abandon my work, and after seeking medical treat-. merit and spending over $eo for different preparations, I found myself no better. Then my wife persuaded me to try a bottle of Hood's Sarsaparilla. Before the first bottle was gone I began to amend. I have now used two bottles and have gained 22 pounds. Can cat anything without it hurting me, my dyspepsia and biliousness have gone. I never felt better in my life." W. V. EULOWS, Lincoln, II1. ak s tne eak tr "Early last spring I was very much run down, had nervous headache, felt miserable and all that.
