ICE BOUND.
Tb« Crem of a V««nel In Huil«oa Bay Living
on ua Island.
Ottawa, March 25.—The vewel Prince
of Wales, belonging to the Hudson Bay
Company, sailed from Moose Factory,
James Bay, for London, with #250,000 worth
of furs, on October 3 last. She found Hud
son Strait full of ice, and was obliged to pat
back. On reaching Charlton Island, 100
miles from the factory, she was imprisoned
by the ice, and has been there ever since.
The company was uuable to get fresh
provisions to the crew until a party of
Indians with dog sleds, who left the
factory November 8, returned on January
12, having reached the ship through great
Ç;rils and brought back Captain Bishop.
he captain reported the the vessel beach
ed on Charlton Island, surrounded by miles
cl solid ice. The island is well wooded,
and there is no danger of the men suffer
ing for «ant of fuel. Thoy live in rude
huts on the island. Another expedition
has been sent out with clothing and provis
ions, which are expected to last them until
August first, as no reiief vessel can reach
ihtrn before that date. It is feared that the
ship may go to pieces when the ice breaks
up. This adventure is held by many to
show the impracticability of the much
talked of Hudeon Bay route from the north
west to Kurope.

Chicago, March 25, 8:15 a. m.—Private
foreign advice« of a warlike tenor, accom
panied by another drop in British consols,

offering to give the piper a position in
a concert company then being formed at
seven dollars a night. Ireland went to
meet Shields and was icduced to go into
Canada. Shields here announced himself
a detective and took the naturalized Amer
ican into custody. Ireland was locked up
and refused permission to write home until
yesteiday, when he sent a few lines to his
wife telling her the above facts and adding
that be would shortly be returned to Eng
land 'or trial. Mrs. Ireland was directed to
communicate with Secretary of State

has confessed to the murder of her sever
year-old counsin, Melville Barrett, whose

jail on suspicion of being the murderer.
Mary says she killed the boy while chastis
ing him lor bavin? eaten an egg that be
longed to her. Sue anil her sister made
the boy get on a chair and tie a rope to a
beam. The girls then tied the rope around
his neck, knocked the chair away, and while

•tory already told by the other girl.
Indians on the War Path.

posse, well armed, has gone down to the
scene of the trouble. Clarence Hinckley

leave. Trouble is brewing all over the
reservation. Buffalo Ghost Spirit and Lame
Knee are the ringleaders in the resurrection.

TWO SERIOUS FIRES
In Buffalo, N. Y.—Tha Music Hall
. Borneo,
ALONG WITH AN OLD CHURCH.
The McCaull Opera Company Hm
a Very Narrow
Escape.
VALUABLE COSTUMES CONSUMED.
Bfffalo, N. Y.t March 25.—This even
ing as an attache of the Maüc Hall was
lighting the gas above the stage, the drop
fly took fire from a defective burner. In
an instant the whole stage was in flames and
six minutes later the entire building was
burning. The McCaull Opera companj
were dressing preparatory to the production
of Falka" and barely time to escape, some
only partially dressed. The company lost
their entire wardrobe for the opera of
' Falka" "The Little Dake" and "The
Queen's Lace Handkerchief" and company
had most of their trunks brought to the
building and they were consumed. Very few
persons had arrived to witness the perform
ance, and all escaped without injury. An
hour later the St. Louis Roman Catholic
church at the rear ol Music Hall took fire,
und it was soon evident the magnificent
edifice was doomed. The street be
tween the Music Hall and the church
is very narrow, rendering it impossible for
a fire department to do effective work.
George Smith and Joseph Oreen ascended
ladders in front of the church for the pur
pose of assisting firemen and in directing
the work. The building burned rapidly
and the firemen and Smith hastily
loft the roof which they had
reachcd, but for Jsome reason Oreen
remained, and frantically rushed to
the cupola, climbing it in lull view of thou
sands of spectators. He climbed to the
lightning rod, but returned and rushed to
the body of the roof,which was now burning
fiercely. He rushed to the corner buildiug,
and heedless of the firemen's cries,who had a
tarpaulin stretched for him to jump into,
he made for the loner end and from it hung
by the bands fully ten minutes. Attempts
were'madeto reach him with a ladder, but
was unsuccessful, owing to the network of
telegraph wires around the building. At
this time the entire front of the church
was enveloped in flames.
When the smoke cleared away he was
seen still seen clinging to the edge of the
roof and then he lunged forward, let go his
hold and fell, struck on his head and was
instantly killed. At 8:30 o'clock the tower
ofthemu&ic hall fell and a few minutes
after the front walls fell into the street
The «outh wall, which was unusually strong
ly built as it whs within 10 feet of a large
private dwelling, remains intact. The fire
was finally confined to the Music
Hall and church. The Music
Iiall was completed in 1883,
having been about a year in course of erec
tion. The St. Louis Church was the oldest
Romnn Catholic Church in this city. The
music hall will be remembered as the
place of the holding of the grand mus
ical festival of 18 s.!, the Democratic
State Convention in the fall of 1883 and
the grand fesiival at which Theodore
fhomas aud Dr. Damrosch appeared in
.'une, 1884.
Fokmkri.y weak, nervous, dyspeptic and
debilitated individuals who found only dis
appointment in the various bitters and
secret quack nostrums, pretended kidney
medicines, etc., are agreerbly surprised to
regain perfect health and strength of mind
and boay, and complete heart s ease and
freedom from aches and pains by the use of
Dr. (Tuysott's Yellow Dock- and Sarsaparilla.
It restores every disordered function to a

ANOTUKK KI MOR
That Will Doubtlessly Cause Much Com
ment lu Iron Circles.
It is said that a meeting of t'io nailers of
this city will take place at an early d ly, and
it is asserted that they will take sjtne action
in regard to their relation with the boiler3
It is said they will dissolve their relation in
the Amalgamated Association, but their de
cision in respect to the matter is yet to be
made, and nothing definite can be stated.
It was learned that Hersey lodge of Belia;re
met last night for the purpose of surrender
ing its charter as a subordinate lodge in the
Association. The action will be followed
by others in all probability, and it is as j
serted that the majority of the nailers in
h hat is known as the Wheeling dist-ict and
in the grater part of the West, will then be
independent of the Amalgamated Associa
tion.
Heretofore this association has been
recognized as one of the strongest labor or
ganizations in existence, but it seenn to
have lost its influence and usefulness. Tuere
are many reasons which might be. citcd for
this alleged break, among which are, first,
the fact that some differences have sprung
up between the nailers and pnddlers, the
head officials have assumed to take sides at
times and even to advise a course which
the association as a whole did desire, in
regard to next year s scale of wages. It
bas been tfcougl t by many that this disso
lution has been imminent for some
time for with the establishment
of steel plants and the manu
facture of e.tvl Laiis in this section, th?
puddlers had little use for the organization
ns th«-ir positions were dissolve! with their
introduction, and for the naile s woi.'ûng
steel to remain in an association con rollei
!iV puddîer.s r.nd iron nail workers in oth-*r
parts of the country would seem to be folly
on their part.
Whether the nailers will remain out ot
the Association altogether or form an inde
( i ndent orgs^ii/.a'.i ja is merely a matter of
conjecture It is p.-serted that a meeting
will be held in this city some time
tbe coming stumer to consider the
advisability of forming an independent
organisationdi=rin tfrom »' p Amalgamated
Association, or remaining in the association
bnd still be independent in their move
ments. but us there are about seven hundred
of them and they form one of the most im
portant branches iu the industry, it is not
at all unlikely they will come to the former
conclusion.
In cither case mat;er3 will be in a much
better shnpp. f.:r the nailer* can regulate
their own prices and the pnddlers c-.n do
the Mime, without consultation and the
necessity of obtaining the acquieaence of the
other branches. It would teem that this
condition of affairs wou'd lessen the proba
bility of strikes, as many ot the complica
tion of amalgamation would be avoided.
The Wise Cat.
London Spectator.
We ourselves have known a cat who
would recognize his master's footsteps after
v hree months absence, and come oat to
tut et him in the hall, with tail erect, and
purring all over as if to the ver? verge of
!;urstiug. And another cat we know, who
comes up every morning between 6 and 7
o'clock to wake his master, aits on the bed,
and very gently feels first one eyelid and
then the other with his paw. When an eye
opens, but not till tlien, the cat sets up a
loud purr, like the prayer of a tire-worship
per to the rising sun.
Those who say lightly that cats care only
fo> places, and not for persons, should go
to the Cat Show at the Crystal Palace,where
they may see recognitions between cat and
owner that will cure them of to shallow an
opinion. When we were last there, one
s:rikirg instance «ell in our way. Cats
preatly dislike these exhibitions; a
cat, as a rule, is like (jueeo
Vashti, ut.willing to be shown, even
to the nobles, at the pleasure of an
Ahauserus. Shy, scnaitiv?, wayward, and
independent, a cat represents being phced
upon acushiou in a wire iage, and exposed
to the unintelligent criticism, to say nothing
of the fingprs. of ft nio1" of sightseers. One
very eminent cat belonging to the Master's
Common Room at Christ Church, Oxford,
whose size and 'oeautv have on several oc
casions entailed on him the hard necessity
of attending a cat show, takes, it is saiJ,
three days to recover from the sense of
humiliation and disgust which he feels
whether he gets » prize or not On the oc
casion to which we refer, 4a row of distin
guished cats were sitting, each ou hi«
cushion, with their backs turned to the
sightseers, while their faces, when from time
to time visible, were expressive of the deep
est gloom and disgust. Presently twj little
girls pushed through the crowd to the ewe
of one of these cats, crying. "Thara s
'Dick!'" Instantly the great cat turned
around, his face transfigured with joy, purred
loudly, and endeavored to fcratch open the
front ot the cage, that he might rejoin his«
little friends, who were with difficulty per
snaded to leave him at the show.
