On Sunday night a negro woman who lives in a cabin on Mr. James Cdbson’s place, at Crawford, Ala., went to church, Iroving her three children in the house, which she locked, taking the key with her. About 9 o’clock the house was dis covered to be on fire, and burned so rapidly that those who got there first were only able to get one of the children out, who was badly burned The other two perished in the flames. * It is not unfrequentlv that we are called up n to chronicle instances of this kind* It does seem that negroes would learn better than to leave their children locked in a house where there is a fire, So often are their lives lost in this way, that it looks as if some law will have to be enacted making it a crime for parents to leave their chil li such n manner.

Sunday evening about sundown a well-to-do darkey by the name of George Philips, while on his way home ftrom Mr. Frank Roberts’, neur Cataula, Harris county, was knocked down and badly hurt by a desperate looking negro, who gave his name as Tom Nunnaliy.

The Chronicle comments on its table of re ceipts lYom plantations as follows : The above statement shows 1. That the total receipts from plantations since September 1, 1885, are 5,338,572 hales; in 1884-85 were 4,726,410 bales; in 1883-84 were 4,777,458 bales. 2. -That, although the receipts at the out ports the past week were 8744 bales, the actual move ment from plantations was only 8327 bales, the balance being taken from the stocks ut the in terior towns.

Steve Brodie, the newsboy, jumped from the Brooklyn bridge yesterday afternoon. He struck on his feet and swam for the shore. An hour later he was In the midst of ten acres of hurrahing fourth warders, and a policeman was leading him to the Tombs. Brodie is twenty-three years of age, five feet six inches in height and of dark complexion. His brother was one of the late Honduras filibusters. In his absence Steve laid his plans to make fame for himself at home. The Brooklyn bridge jump was the biggest thing he knew of. PREPARING FOR THE LEAP. About 10 o'clock yesterday morning Brodie got his friends together. Tim Brennan, who works in Walsh’s Frankfort street printing establishment, was in charge of the arrangements. They got a boat at the foot of Dover street. In it was a bundle of clothing, two reporters and a representative of the sporting newspaper pool. A few trusted fourth ward friends stood on the pier. An examination of the water was not satisfactory. It was too rough. Brennan and Brodie decided to wait until ebb tide. It was a little after two o’clock when Brodie appeared at the eutrance to the bridge. He was accompanied by his wife and their two children. They went into the waiting room, where she kissed him I and said, “Goodby, Stevy. dear. I know The oldest child, a bright It will be seen by the above that the increase hi amount in sight to-night as compared with last year, is 862,154 bales, the increase as com pared with 1883-84 is 812,087 bales, and the de crease from 1882*83 is 479,202 bales.

Not one of the watchmen on duty suspected anything startling until Policeman Hally, of the Oak street station, who was standing one huu- l with Their Tre.itmeat dred feet east of the New York tower.

The officer was but twenty feet away, but before he had I time to reach the truck, Brodie dropped I like a shot into the far-away water. Great ! drops of perspiration stood on ttie police man’s forehead when lie saw the man dis appear, but twenty seconds later, when he heard shouts from Brennan’s little boat, i and saw Brodie pop out of the water like n cork and begin swimming for tbe pier, be nits the most astonished man in Netv York. Without stopping to arrest the truck driver or to answer questions put by the excited crowd on the bridge, the officer ran like a deer off the bridge and down the dark streets toward the river, with five hundred shouting men and boys hard after him. But lit reached the wateV front three blocks ahead of the fleetest follower. Brodie had been tnkcu out of the river by his friend Brennan, who was rubbing him with brandy. -‘Oh, vez need not rub mo. Give me a drink, J am all right. I km jump off a bridge a million feet nigh. Let me alone.

He was followed by an immense crowd. He laughed and Chatted as if ho had been on a chow der excursion. “I look like amanwhot’s committed suicide, don’t I ?” he replied to a question front the officer. “No, sir, I made a clean ?200 and jumped a square jump. Show me the mart that kicks agin my style of jumping !” LIKE ONE FROM THE DEAD. A I'ersomd In u yrwHpapvr Uvunllcs a Family. Fifteen years ago Frank Beebe, aged 20, mysteriously disappeared from his home at Clarendon, Orleans county, New York. On the morning of his departure Frank Itad come home from an all night at the village tavern, and was in no humor to receive the severe upbraiding admin istered by his father. “You are continually scolding me, fath er,” he said, snappishly. “Good-bye, I’m going to leave you;’’ with which lie started away. Two days afterwards his father re ceived a letter from him dated at Roches ter. N. Y., in which he said; Dear Father: I have given my actions serious thought, and have decided to heave home forever. I am going to New York with two .young men whom I have met ' and we all intend to enlist in the United States navy. You are to blame for the ! course I have taken, and you will never j hear from me again. Tell Myra Baker, J when she calls at our house to see Sister ; Fanny, what, I have done. Site, too, seemed j cold toward me before I left. Your son, ! Frank Beebe. | Mr. Beebe came to New York, and at | a south street recruiting station learned ' that bis son had enlisted and been assigned ! to a war ship which had shortly afterward been ordered to the Isthmus of Panama. The father returned to his home and waited patiently and expectantly for some tidings of his errant son. Months and years passed away, but no news of bis boy recited him except an unconfirmed report furnished by a sailor who visited Claren don and stated to Mr. Beebe that he thought, that Frank Beebe had died at Colon of Chagres fever. Frank’s term of enlistment expired in tlie spring of 1876 and his father had fond ly set his heart upon the young man’s re turn then. He waited patiently through out the summer, but Frank did not put iu au appearance. In the fall of that year a new sorrow was added to Farmer Beebe’s heart in the death of his wife. The boy did not come back immediately upon his discharge from the navy. He went to San Francisco and re enlisted in a war vessel connected with the Pacific squadron. He remained here for several years and then his ship was ordered to Hong Kong, China, and afterwards to dif ferent ports in the Mediterranean. While in China his father died, leaving him his farm of 300 acres, making the pro viso in his will: “ I devise and bequeath to my dear son Frank Beebe my farm of 300 acres, which shall be held in trust for him by mv (laughter, Fanny Beebe, for the term of five years, and at the end of that time, if he does not return, it shall re vert to her, to have and to hold during her life,” Fanny Beebe had been left several thou sand dollars on deposit in the bank of Al bion, and site lived comfortably and con tentedly at the homestea'd, all the time hoping for Frank’s return. A few weeks ago Fanny concluded to spend a few weeks at Long Brunch. She visited friends at Elberton and enjoyed themselves in a quiet, moderate manner ::t this fashionable resort. In conversation one evening about her family afl'airs Miss Fanny mentioded Frank’s absence, and ex pressed the wish to learn something of his whereabouts and whether he was dead or alive. “Perhaps,” said a friend who was pres ent, “a personal in the Journal will reach him.” “I’ll try it,” said Miss Fanny, and the personal was inserted. Frank Beebe read it while lying in his ship at the Brooklyn navy yard. He visted his sister at Long Branch three days ago, and learned that he was the heir to a handsome farm. The old love for his former sweetheart, Maria Baker, was re newed, and in a few weeks Frank will be come a husband and the possessor of a beautiful estate. His term of enlistment expires August 14. The »w Luminary. It was Lord Byron who said that he awoke one morning to find himself fa mous, but he is not the only writer who enjoyed that enviable experience. Re cently Mary N. Murfree, or CharleB Egbert Craddock, as she is oftener called, equalled the swift flight of England’s poetic Mephis topheles into prominence, selecting, how ever, an American sky to penetrate with her literary wing. And now we have an other case recorded, that of Miss Amelie Rives, who, while trying to beguilean un occupied day In her sick room, wrote “A Brother to Dragons” for the Atlantic, and now has more offers than she can fill iu several years. Miss Rives is beautiful, as well as gifted, with a face, we are told, “like a Madonna before she knew her seven sorrows,” in which the innocence of twenty-two years is reflected, as the sunlight by the costal stream. When not writing sh6 is scouring the Virginia hills on horseback, leaping five- barred fences with ease, or fashioning marble to the fancy of an artistic eye. Shakespeare is her literary idol, and from his lines she usually turns to prose w’ork of her own or to sonnets, such as that which the Century recently published. In short, the Admirable Crichton was a.fool to her. What publisher now speaks for Miss Rivers to edit his magazine? The principal ](rt ot the time of the senate in secret session up to recess at six o’clock was consumed by Senators Voorheesand Harrison, speaking respec tively for and against the confirmation of Collector Thomas Hanlon, of the seventh Indiana internal revenue district, adversely reported from the finance committee. The case was still pending when a recess was taken. Upon reassembling at 8 o’clock it was discovered that there was no quorum, and the pages were sent out to summon the absentees. Five minutes later a quorum had assembled, aud the consideration of the Haitian ease was resumed. ZiiMinle Notice. There wi 1 be a regular communication of Mt Hermon Lodge No. 504, F. and A.
