Burning of the Southern Hotel—Great
Loos of Life—Terrible Scene*.
8t. Loch. April 11.—The Southern
Hotel via bereed at «vo o’clock thia
morning with an appalling U** of mi
at first aappoKd to b« 200, bnt now ro-
dneed to fifty. Many wera killed by
jamping from the third, fourth and fifth
mtnrv windows,
K\te Oiaxton, the actress, who so nor-
roviy eaesptd from the Brooklyn fire,
brokd both bar legs jamping from tbo
third story.
The fire originated in the uppor stories
and the windows in these stories were
crowded with shrieking men and women
whom it seemed impossible to save. A
few were rescued by ladders placed on
the Fourth street portico, bat on tho
other three sides of the building, bounded
by Fifth, Walnut and Elm streets, the
longest ladders fell far short of reaching
tbs windows,
Mr. Peter Blow, ton of the former Min
ister to Brazil, was sleeping in hi a room
on the sixth floor, and succeeded, after
strenuous exertions, in escaping with bis
life and a broken arm.
Tbo building was six stories in height,
and Mr. Blow thinks that the majority of
the inmates of tbe upper stories of the
building must have perished.
Two men, unrecognised, were killed by
jumping from the third story windows,
sod a third one wm badly mangled.
Fivo women were resenod from the
sixth story on the Foorth street side by
tbe heroic .-fiorts of the firemen, who,
lifter ascending tho patent ladders, sue
co.'dsd in getting a ropo to the half-suf
focated creatures.
The firo is said to have originated in
, the a tore-room.?.
Litxb.—ft ii supposed thst from forty
to fifty wore burned to death directly or
first saffoeated. The fire originated in n
store room in tbo bsaemenl, and first
come through tho gronnd floor north of
tbe office, and in ten minutes bad ascend
ed the olevators acd rotunda and spread
over tho sixth story, oeoapied by the em
ployes—mostly women. The emoko was
so dense in Home of the balls that the
gas jets were extlcguised, which renderod
egress from them to those most familiar
with the building a matter of great diffi-
onlty.
Tbo density of tbo smoke in the halls
drove many guests and boardors back into
their rooms, and they rushed to tho win
dows as a means of escape.
Ladders wero raised as soon as possible,
and women and children, with nothing
but their night clothes on, were thus
taken from the burning building.
8oma fainted from fright and sank ex-
haunted to tbe gronnd from nervous
prostration. Tho ladders generally wero
too short to reach to the fifth end sixth
stories, but by hoisting of them on tho
one story balcony on tbe north side of
the building, thoso floors wore reached
and all thoso at tho windows rescued.
The Stakina fire escape was brought
promptly into service and was tbe means
of saving many lives.
While this work was going on some
frightful scenes occurred. One man,
who had been occupying a window on
Walnnt street, in front of the hotel, be
came desperate at tbe seeming delay in
effecting his escape, with nervous hands
he tore shreds from his bed into strips
and tied them together, fastening this
improvisod ropo to tho window till and
disregarding the fact that it did
not reach more than twenty feet,
ho let himself down hand over hand.
Tho men below who saw bis position
turned away their faces to avoid witness
ing tbo sickening ovent that was inevita
ble. Finally ho reached tho end of tbo
rope, and then far tbo first time he seom-
ed to realise his position. He stopped,
threw his head back, revealing a ghastly
face, and swung slowly to and fro, swayed
by tho breexo which tho roaring flames
above created. Hi3 limbs swung around
convulsively as though to catch upon
something, then ho let go, and groans
went up from hundreds as he whirled
around and round, and finally struck on
tho stone flagging with a sickening thud.
He was carried to a saloon across tho
street, and died in a few minutes.
Two other mon jamped from the fourth
story windows, ono of whom seemed not
to be dangerously hurt.

London, April 11.—The Times, in its
leading editorial, reviewing tho situation,
says a circular has been issued by tho
forte, giving an unfavorable reply to the
protocol and tho demand for disarmament.
Even though tho refusal may not bo so
absolute as to preclude farther negotia
tion or dissipate every hope that the de
termination may be reconsidered, it is
impossible to look upon it except as a
very gravo ovent. Only the mon argent
representations of tho powers at St. Pe
tersburg and Constantinople can now
prevent a collision.

tion, whilo adhering to the original plan,
will modify the terms to the extent of
fusing the legislatures upon the basis of
the supervisor's returns, instead of the
Returning Board. This plan would give
a Democratic majority of four on joint
ballot. It is added that General George

masts are all gone. Her rigging is also
very much damaged. She is hard a gronnd,
about one hundred yards from the high
water mark. Abont 100 barrels of pe
troleum are also ashore at this point,
and the beach looks ss if a vessel had
gono to pieces, judging from the wrecked
material which had floated.

ashore two miles south of the above men
tioned ship, opposite Little Creek inlet.

ropes, and was driven ashore at Green
Hill, Chesapeake Bay, where she now-

JIM BLAINE.
He Goes for the Boston Papers.
Boston, April 11.—The Herald will
publish the following to-morrow;
Editor cf the Herald: Your Columbia
correspondent is in error in his state
ment that I had a conference with Gov
ernor Chamberlain in New York. I have
seen Governor Chamberlain but once for
a year, and that was in the private cabi
net of President Hayes, on tho 27th of
March, nor have 1 written cr telegraphed
him, or heard from him in any way. Tho
same is true respecting Governor Pack
ard, except in tho matter of ono telegram
received from turn, which I read publicly
in tho United States Senate.
Bnt I am sure that Gov. Chamberlain
knows that bo has my profoundest sym
pathy in tho heroic though unsuccessful
struggle ho has made in South Carolina
for ciTil liberty end constitutional gov
ernment. I sm equally sure that
Govomor Packard feels that my
hetrt and judgment aro both with him
in tho contest ho is waging against great
odds for the Governorship that he holds
by a title as valid os that which justly
and lawfully seated Rutherford B. Hayes
in tbo Presidential chair. I trust, also,
that both Governors know that tho Bos
ton press no more represents tho stalwart
Republican feeling of New England on
the pending issues than the same press
did when it demanded the enforcement
of the fugitive slave law in 1851. Very
respectfully, James G. Blaine.

Fearful Adventure on tbe Rail.
A MANIAO monopolizes a gab on the cen
tral PACIFIC ROAD.
The San Francisoo Chronicle furnishes
tho particulars of an event which literally
converted an eastward-bound overland
train into a perambulating hellon wheels.
Tho story, in brief, is to tbo following
effect: In ihe make-np of the train
which left Sen Francisoo on the 17th ult.
were two Pullman sleeping-cars. The
larger proportion of passengers occupy
ing the Pnllmans were woman and child
ren, and all expected to enjoy a pleasant
and comfortable jaunt aoross tho contin
ent. On the second day ont tho serenity
was disturbed by the developement of a
malignant malady onboard. The victim
was the representative of a San Francisco
house, n large and powerfnl mao, who
had drank himself into a state of delirium
tremens. Tho maniao startled the pas
sengers by giving utterance to terrible
Shrieks acd impreoatlons, at tho same
time rnshiug baok and forth throngh the
car. The greatest consternation prevail
ed, and two ladies, at least, were serious
ly effected by tbo violence of ths mad
man. He was finally secured in ono end
of the car whilo the women and children
were crowded in tha other end. Not a
soul slept throngh tbe night. His ravings
were incessent, and it was feared that
he might regain his liberty and commit
murder. 'When the train reaohed Ogden
the derangement of the unfortunate man
had greatly increased. At this point
the females and ohildren were crowd
ing the rear sleeping-car while
tho other was converted into a
lunatio asylum, acd carefully guard-
by male passengers. After leav
ing Ogden his snfferiags were terrible.
He frothed and bled at the mouth, while
continnons spasms shook his powerful
frame. The seoond day out from Ogden
he becorno more quiet, and undor the
belief that he was getting better, his
watchers, needing rest, left him in charge
of a single person. Shortly after daylight
hs suddenly sprang np and dashed throngh
window. The engine was reversed and
the train ran baok, all expecting to find
the lifeless body of the maniao. He
had fallen, however, where the snow was
deep and his escape from immediate death
thereby prevented. He was able to raise
himself and stagger toward the approach-
ing train, his eyes glaring wildly acd
blood oozing from his nose and month.
Ho was again taken on board by kind
hands, bnt tbe belief prevailed that he
conld not snrvive to the journey’s end.

Buchlbzlt, April 11.—The Talks dis
play great activity in poshing forward
military preparations. Twenty four

artillery, landed at Varna yesterday.

How Hldeons
are discolored teeth, and how mortifying
they must be to persons troubled with
them. Yet it is unnecessary that they
should be so, since SOZODONT will re
store their health and pristine whiteness.
Hao it, for it is safe, aromatic, and effec

Maeeied at Pbateb Meeting.—At
the last Prayer Meeting service of the
First Baptist Church in this city, a man
walked in, somewhat agitated, and taking
a seat at the rear of the church, motioned
the pastor, Kev. Mr. Philips, to como to
him. He explained that some friends had
gone to steal a woman, who was willrng to
forsake father and mother for him, and
stated that if they succeeded he wanted
to be married there.
Very soon the party arrived and the
man to he married removed his seat
promptly to the side of tho earnest wo
man.
Services were condnoted to the usnal
length, and when concluded, the pastor
announced the appointment. No one be
ing present, who could give any reason
why they sbonld not be united in holy
wedlock, after the usual ceremony, he
pronounced them “man and wife.”—Chat

We Bay this because we believe that the
health, happiness and prosperity of the
people depend upon tho proper use of
these medicines, which have proved so
successful in eradicating disease and de
feating death. The medicine so effective
in its core of diseases is the great South
ern remedy, Simmons’ Liver Begulator.
Try it; we believe that tbe first trial will
be satisfactory. aprlOdlw
An exchange says: “'James Parton,
having married his first wife’s daughter,
and that daughter having presented Mr.
James Parton with a baby, Mr. Parton
bag become his own father and no longer
weeps because be is an orphan*” Then,
whence those tears ?
