Thia is the saddest night in the history pf Read ing. A deathlike call hariiys nnnn t o- -i the city consequent to one of the. most horrible disasters in its history. A hundred households are in raourninc as the result of one of the greatest calamities that ha3 ever occurred in Pennsylvania'. A cyclone swept over the northern section of the city, laying waste ev erything within its reach, and with a terrible loss of life. The number of persons that have been iilled and in jured can only be estimated. The most . reliable computation at 10 o'clock to-night is that not less than eighty persons have been killed out right and 100 injured. The storm istruck here about 5.30 o'clock this afternoon, causing the most frightful calamity that has ever happened in the annals of this city. The silk mill of the Messrs. Grhn shaw, on Nortk Eleventh street, a large five-story structure, was blown down, burying about one hundred and seventy-five of the employees in the ruins. There were nearly two hun dred and fifty hands at work at the time, and at the" first crashing sound some of those nearest the doors on the first and basement floors fled and made their escape. Others were buried un der the fallen walls as they were flee ing for their lives. FOUR MEN ROASTED ALIVE. The paint shop of the Reading Railroad, ottNorth Sixth street, was 4)lown down. About sixty men were at work at! the time. Coal-oil lamps were used. The collapsed building took fire and was entirely destroyed, including nine passenger cars that were being repainted. Four men were bu ried m the ruins and either killed by the falling walls or roasted alive. It was raining very hard all the morning. Towards noon it ceased al most entirely, and by 4 o'cldck there was every indication that there would be an entire cessation of the rain storm. Half an hour afterwards tile sun came out, but soon gave way to the ominous signs of a coming storm. The wind whistled, roared and tore in tnad confusion, "ho etorjn cloud grew heavier still and louder roared the wind. In the western sky the storm was rseen approaching with a thundering noise. The swath it cut was narrow, but its effect was terrible. Persons residing along its track say that they saw the first signs of danger in a funnel-shaped maelstrom which seemed to gather up everything within its reach and east it right and left. Out in the country houses and barns were un roofed, farm outbuildings overturned, crops rooted up and destruction spread in every direction. Frozen to death iu North Carloina. Raleigh, N.C. Jan. 10. Although the Winter here has been remarkably mild there has been, rough weather west of the Blue Ridge. Ex-Sheriff C. C. McKinney, of Mitchell county, was frozen to death at night on Roan Mountain while at a height of over six thousand feet and near Cloudland Hotel. ne was with a joung man mamed Columbus Ramsey. The lat ter made a desperate attempt to save McKinney, and himself had a narrow escape from death. 'Ice formed in his eyep and mouth, and his arms and ljgs were badly frbzen as he crawled upon his hands and knees in the snow. The rescuers found him unconscious, standing erect in a snow-drift, his mouth and eyes open. Tbe same night Charlie Swan, eighteen years old was found frozen near Bakcrsville, Mitchell County. He had gone after whiskey and was returning when he fell from a precipice into an immense drift of snow. Gas Tank Explosion. Brooklyn was Wednesday night thrown into a terrible panic by the expljsion of two huge gas tanks on the ground of the Citizens' Gaslight Company. As it occurred when a fear ful storm of wind and rain was raging the consternation in the immediate neighborhood "was appalling. While Tthe flames lit up miles of streets, windows of many houses were shatter ed, the roof of the Navy-Yard barracks was blown off and people fled in terror from their trembling frame buildings. It is believed that the tanks were struck by lightning. " I buy the Sun," said a gentleman the other day, "as a pleasant duty. When I buy a World, which I some times do, I apologize to myself. "- New York Sun. This gentleman evidently feels it his duty to help the poor and distress ed. In purchasing copiespf the Sun he is to be.credited with the same kind of charity that a man dispenses when he purchases a box of pens which he does not want from a cripple-beggar. . r Mama: "What can I do to induce you, to go to bed?"

It is to be made up largely of farmers and there is no thing more characteristic of our North Carolina farmers of intelliDgence than good hard common sense. Nows and Observer. TRUSTS ARE DOOMED. Judge Barrett Declared such ConiMna tions Unlawful. Trusts are private affairs: James G. Blaine. . Trusts' are the nurseries of fraud. Common Law Maxim. . The battle against the Trusts which The World waged so vigorously has been won. Judge Barrett, in the Supreme Qourt. yesterday handed down his decision in the action brought"by the Attorney-General to annul the charter of the North River Sugar-Refining company for having abused its corporate privileges by par ticipation in the Sugar Trust combin ation The decision is against the Company and revokes its corporate license. The eventual disruption of the sugar monopoly is consequently assured. "A combination the tendency of which is toprevent general competit ion and to control prices is detrimen tal to the public andctmsequently un lawful." Judge Barrett. New York World. THE CITY'S SEW YEAR PRESENT. The Mighty "Tip," Adam Forepangh'g Gift. New York City will own an elephant to-day for the first time. The muni cipality has borrowed them heretofore, but this will be the first real possess ion. -Adam Forepaugh (as has al ready been published in The World) is the donor, and the elephant's name Tip. The big beast has been in Jer sey City for some' time, but to day, at 2.30 o'clock in the afternoon, he will embark on a ferry-boat for Twenty third street. From the ferry he will proceed to Tenth avenue, then to Forty-first street, over which he will pass to Fifth avenue and thence to the menagerie building in the Park. At 4 o'clock Adam Forepaiigh, jr., will address J. Hampton Robb, Pres ident of the Department of Public Parks, and will deliver over the mighty Tip to the city. Tip is of the Asiatic species and has received a careful eduction. . He can perform many interesting tricks for the delight of the beholder. He is eigh teen years old, stands 9 feet 7 inches in his stockings, and weighs 5- tons. His handsome tusks are 4 feet long, but he is of peaceful disposition and mild in his manners. A LETTER FROM RALEIGH. What is Doing iu the, Legislature. N. C, Jan. 14, 1889. Editor Times : As yei l cannot give you much information in regard to the working capacity of the House. The personnel of the House impresses me favorably. I may not be compe tent to judge but think it a tolerably fair representation of the intelligence and manhood of our State. The most of the members with whom I have formed an acquaintance, are high toned gentlemen, and allpf them seem to understand that wc have come to work. Our Speaker is a gentleman who I think will push business through as rapidly as it can be done. I think he is a man well qualified to discharge the duties of the office. We have no committees named as yet but some of them will be named .to-morrow. The Senatorial fight is waxing warm. Alexander, Ransom, Jarvis and Waddell have established head quarters, and the friends of each seem to be sanguine. I -suppose the dark horse is Stedman. There were a good many resolutions presented this morning. One in re gard to the Blair bill and the Rail road Commission has been introduced. We have eight or nine contested cases in the Iftmse and a few in the Senate, I think. The Rads look blue !and lonesome. I went out 'to see the whale this morning, nick-named the Governor's Manson, or rightly named "Jarvis' folly." What to do with it is the question to hold on is death; to let go maybe worse. Raleigh is making extensive prepa rations for the inaugural of the Gov ernor. j A New History. i r.BRFvsBnsn N C. nv. 1. 1888. If I can obtain 1,000 subscribers at $2.00 each, I propose to publish, at an early d'ayT' a history of the part borne by North Carolina in repelling the Britisn invasion of the Southern Colonies in 1780-'81. The book will be 8 mo. bound in muslin, and will contain about 450 pages. The object of the work is to correct many mistakes, prejudicial to the State, which have passed for history, and to add many new facts honorable to the State, which have not hitherto been published. It will also contain an introductory chapter, giving an account of the or ganization and services of the ten North Carolina regiments of Regulars, who fought under Washington in 1776-'77. This will be an interest ing feature of the book. , . If. you feel an interest in the vindi cation of North Carolina and are will ing to aid this purely patriotic enter prise fill up the blank below and re turn to me. The price will not be due until the book is delivered. D. SCHEXCK. Richmond makes its population now, with Manchester and its other immedi ate suburbs ,.100,000.

A Syndicate to Control All the Great Salt Works in the World Copyright, 1889, by The Press Publishing Company (New York World). Special cable despatch to the World. ' -London. Jan. 5.-,The Sheffield Inr dependent says the English Salt Trust is very far advanced with its scheme to obtain control of all the large salt works in the world. It states that the agent of the syndicate who recently visited the United States and Canada, to sound the manufacturers there returned, and the report of the result of his mission was so satisfactory that he has set out again.with definite proposals. The -English syndicate offers to buy the whole of the salt works on the American Continent. The direction is to be consolidateehtnd offic es established at New York., One-half of the capital is to be held in England and the rest in the United States and Canada. It is stipulated . that the manufacturers who sell out to the syndicate are not to engage in any man ufacture on their own Account for a period often years. They are, however, privileged to invest one-third of the proceeds of their plant in the stock of the Trust, which it is . boIdlyxstated will return a dividend of 25per cent each year. Yance wants the tax off of Trace Chains. The other day the Senate took up the tariff bill. Mr. Allison, going back to para graph 134 as to chains, moved to amend it by reducing the rate on chains "less than three eights of one inch in diameter" from 3 to 2 cents per pound. He stated that this was the rate under the existing law. Mr. Vance asked whether the pro posed reduction included trace chains and what the equivalent ad valorem rate was. i. Mr. Allison conceded that it did, and said that the equivalent ad valo rem rate was 44.37 per cent at the present price. - Mr. Vance moved to amend the amendment by making the rate thir ty per cent ad valorem and he j read letters from New Yook importing houses stating that the present rate (2J cents per pound) had been practi cally prohibitory for many years. Mr. Vance's amendment was rejected yeas 19, nays 21. Jacob Wegenheiserangenfeldts' Set ting: a Hen.

A terrible race war has broken out in Buck Shot County. A negro and a white man became in volved in a quarrel and the negro was killed. Then, the negroes and whites, arming themselves, engaged in a fear ful battle. Three hundred negroes and several white men were killed. Second Dispatch It was the negro who, killed the white man.

Mr. Reid Corrects an Error. To the Editor or the Mecklenburg Times. In your notice of the meeting of the board of edtfcatidn, held January 7th and 8th, to distribute the public school money of the county you state cor rectly that the whole amount to be ap portioned in the county for 1889 is 19,085.91, but then, from some misr understanding you state incorrectly that the amount distributed to the white race was 0,374, and to the colored was G,463, aggregating 13, 837 only out of the 19t68'5,91; leaving the amount of 5,848.91 un apportioned, or to be expended by the board. The sum of 7,374 stated as apportioned for the whites is the num- school age, and'G,4G3 is the number of the colored children in the county. As your article will be read both by the wise and the unwise, and the un wise may not consider that sometimes mistakes arc made in the hurried man ner in which daily papers hav6 to bo supplied with news, may say that the board of education of this county have ft undistributed and (inferentially) for their own use 5,848.91, being Over o per cent, of the whole amount of school money raised for the county. 1 he truth is that tue whole amount distributed was about 18,500, leav ing about 1,300 reserved to pay the treasurer his per cent for disbursing the school money, and nearly one fourth to the county superintendent and less than "200 for the expenses of the board proper. Some persons may say ttiat tins statcmcni is a smau matter, but to the county board who ave made an honest and persistent effort to manage economically and faithfully the school riioney of the county, the bare suspicion that such was not the case would be unpleasant. YTours truly, S. W. Reid, Chairman Board ot Education. January 10, 1889. How To Preserve The Wings Of Birds And Fowls. In the winter when so mamy game birds and fowlsare used in the family, one can niake handsome or very useful collection of the wings that are left on the birds when they are sent home. Turkey and chicken wing are good for brushing the hearth when one has ' an open fire-place, and arc also excellent for brushing out the oven and the sur face of the. range. The wings of small game birds are, as a rule, quite pretty , and may be used foj trmmmg hats and bonnets. The wings of wild turk eys and ducks have beautiful colors in them. Such wings can be employed to brush the hearths, in the dining and sitting-rooms. After cutting from the wings all the flesh yon possibly can, spread them, one at a -time, on a piece of thick paper. Place a rather warm iron on that part of the wing where the bones show taking care the iron is not hot) enough to burn the feathers and lei it stay until .the muscles become set. This will cause the wings to remain spread. Another w.ay to reach the same result is to tak? the wings on a thin board in tlie position in which you desire them to remain, and'keep them there all the time they are being cured. When the wings are permanently fixed in the right position, line a pastboard box with paper and lay the ' wings in it. Sprinkle the bony parts thickly . with ground clove, rubbing it in where the bones flesh are exposed. Put on the cover and wrap tue box in thick brown pa-. per. . Set away m a cool, dry place. At the end of a month they will be in good condition, Take them from the box and shake off all the clove. Place the wings in the open air a few days andjthey will lose the odor of spice. - In curing a large pair of wings ; you will require two heaping tablespoon fuls of clove. The same pasteboard box, with the clove remaining ..in it, can be used every time; a little fresh spice being added on each occasion. f'HF' iiliivlif frtr 1889. STATE NEWS.

"We almost forgot to mentitrn that Gen. Thos. L.Clingman, of Bun combe,Hs'"nrTialeigh and is under stood to be an aspirant for the Senate. We hear that he bases his claim to election on the ground that just before the war he was elected to the Senate to serve a six years teim. He served only a short time when the war come on and he withdrew from the Federal Senate. He now thinks it is due him to allow him to complete his term." State Chronicle. There are many persons in Rowan who doubtless have intended to buy a copy of the history of Rowan county. More copies have been sold to persons beyond the limits of the county than in it.

North Carolina Herald. J. T. Bagwell, In Monroe. Owing to the inclement weather Dr Bagwell did not -deliver his lecture last Friday night, but he remained over and lectured Sunday afternoon. His subject was: "The Rationale of Revealed Religion." The leeture was delivered in the Court house to a large audience, and the subject was handled in a masterly manner; showing deep thought. The foolishness of sce- ntieism wns. s shown, and . the harmonv existing between l tne xiDie ana science was clearly bronght out The results of geological investigations were com pared with tho Mosaic account of the creation, and the two were made to corroborate each other. But we cannot give a report that would do justice to the lecture, and wc shall not attempt it. It was eloqu ent, and at the same tune bristling all the way through wit'a convincing facts. Dr. Bagwell possesses talent of a very high order, and the people of Monroe will be glad to hear him when ever the opportunity presents it self. Monroe Express and Euquirer.
