Mrs Tkaky, who shares the fame of
her husband. Lieut. IVary, the famous
explorer of (ireenland, said in conver
sation a few days ago that she thought
she felt the cold more here during o:ir
recent siege of severe weather than she
did last year up where zero tempera
ture is considered moderate. She at
tributed her discomfort to the fact that
in Greenland she was perfectly pro
tected from the weather by her dress,
a fur case that had no gaps to let the
body heat escape. The outside tem
perature is not of so much account if
the problem of preserving the inside
heat is solved.
It is a singular fact that three noted
men have died within the last few

ing what he conceived to be llutlerism.
lien, llutler demanded that Brown be
punished. Mr. Lamar opposed the mo
tion, and Mr. Blaine, who was then the
speaker, was called npon to administer
the censure, which he did in such a
low tone that nobody could hear him,
out of consideration for the feelings of
the disgraced member.
Enkhalps are said to be steadily dis

Such a string of emeralds was exhib

den Linden, and was estimated to be
worth 12,000 marks Now emeralds
are polished like diamonds. Fault
less stones of a deep color have
always been as valuable as diamonds.
The reason of the scarcity of emeralds
is the decrease in production in the
Ural mountains. Emeralds were first
discovered on the right bank of the To

entire south half of tha block, which
was almost entirely occupied by busi

boasm burned, a doted mora are badly
damaged, and the destruction of s
score of more of buildings waa pre

the united efforts of the citizens
of the place. Had it not been that
light rain had fallen during the day,
from which the roofs of the honaea
were yet damp, there ia no telling
where the end would have been, as
there was a stiff gale blowing from the
west at the time.
The origin of the fire is shrouded in
mystery. It was well nnder way when
discovered. The bnildinga destroyed
were all frame ones. Several of the

Brn.AXD,.Tt, Feb, IS. One of tha
trorst disasters in the history of maibla
quarrying occurred at West Rutland
a little after 1 o'clock yesterday after
noon In a quarry operated by the Ver
mont Sfas-bla Co., with which Senator
Proctor is conaectcd. A great mass of
stone fell Into the 'quarry, and seven
men were instantly kiltad, and a num
ber of other Injured. The victiins
worm crushed ao that soma could not be
-recogtciized.
As soon as tha accident bappaaed
work everywhere waa "stopped at tm
AU the doctors in West Rutland and
Rutland were called by telephone and
responded quickly. Scores of men
were also sent down into the quarry.
When the news reached theatreeta hun
dreds of . men, women and chUdren
hurried to the quarry. The killed and
some of the injured were burled under
tons of rock and the work of rescue
waa necessarily difficult but acorea of
men went at it with a wHL
Tbe loose piles of atones were re
moved and blasts pat in to remove the
larger pieces, some of which weighed
many tons. Soon one dead body waa
found which con Id not be recognised,
being horribly mutilated. Then in a.
short time the aeeond body was extri
cated and taken up. It too, was so
horribly mutilated that it eonld not be
recognised. Tbe cheat waa crushed
terribly, the back of the head eat open
so that the brains were visible and tha
legs jammed.
Another dead body waa found and a
large mass of rocks had to be blasted
away, which took some time. Then
were found the bodies of two men so
closely jammed together that they
looked like one. Neither body could
be recognised, both being moat horrl
j bly mutilated. The fifth body recov
ered was that of Alex. Bin inquest a
Swede, who had been in this country
but two weeks. The body was horri
bly mutilated.
The cause of the caving in of quarry
is not positively known. The mass of
stone which covered the men who were
at work close by was, as near as can be
estimated, aixty feet in length and
twenty feet wide. It fell without the
least warning, and all who were at work
there were crushed.
