MOKI2 DCTAIUS OF Till! HHOWNINO OF MISS 11OISI0. AarouiA, Aug. 0. Gloom wot cast over Long Beach on the Wash ington shore about 12:80 yesterday afternoon, when Miss Nellie Boise, of North Sulem, and William Steele, of Portland, wero drowned In the srtirf. Tho distressing accident hai peued In front of Stout's hotel, nnd more than twenty porsons saw the twoyou.ig peoplo swept out tou wutery grave. A huge wave, at tended by a fearful undertow, swopt tho party of bathers Into n deep water hole, nnd.before tho undertow mibalded, tho unfortunate young people had worn themselves out In struggling against It. There was about twenty of tho party together, among them being Will Steele, Nel llo Boise, Berbert Nichols, B. Mc Farlaud, Geo. Myers, Balfo Johnson, Bon Lombard, L. Shepard, Merle Johnson, Mrs. Hawthorn, Mrs. My ers, nnd others. Goo. ftlyera was farther down tho beach than the others, and was tho first to feel the Irrealstablo pressure of tho undertow as It swept him oil' his feet. He shouted to those farther up and mo tioned them to go to shore. They all started, but tho tre.ichorous wave almost Immediately overtook them and lifted them oil their feet. Some of tho young men wero further out than tho ladles, and when the un dortow caught them It swept the luillc-t pist them. All wore very much excited, aud Miss Boise fainted In tho arms of her escort, Bon Lom bard. Ho was a good swimmer, and made herculean oll'orts to reach a safe footing with her, and would un doubtedly have succeeded had not a second wave torn her from hl graBp and she sank to rlso no moro. Lombml tried lu vain to reach her jgaln, but could not, and lu an ex hausted condition ho was dragged on tho beach, Stoolo, who was a trlilu farther out than Mlos Boise and Lombard, was seen on tho crest of a wavo ufior Hie deadly under-, tiw had partlaly sulwlded, but was apparently too weak to help him self, and before assistance could reach him, ho too hud perished. The true causo of tho accident Is probably best explained lu tho ac count of ail experienced aurf bather, who was In tho water near tho scene of the accident. He says: "1 hud Just o-iino well lu, after being far out in the breakers, and was in water a little moro than waist deep. Sud denly I heard an outcry below me, and saw an immense wuvo, followed a moment later by another, The surf was coming from tho south ward, and when tho wave and un dertow struck mo it almost knocked me nil' my feet.

TJIK VCTKIiANS. Dcthoit, Aug., 0, The afternoon neeelon was devoted almost entirely to a discussion of the selection of a place to hold tho next encampment. After a long, heated debate, the matter was settled on the first bal lot by Washington securing a ma jority of twenty-seven votes over Lincoln. A resolution was unanimously adopted requesting congress to pass a law authorizing tho Interstate commerce commission to premit railroads to give reduced rates to all soldiers und Bailors of the war of '01 'lio attending national encamp ment. A resolution vai unanimously adopted limiting tho length of the purade at all future encampments to be two miles. Tho location of the next encamp ment having been settled, tho in terest of the encampment Is chiefly centered in tho election of a com-m.tuder-ln-chlef. Captain John Palmer, of Now York, A, G. Wels aert, of Wisconsin, and Col. W. Sniedburg, of California, are tho leading candidates, aud it Is safe to nav one of these will bo elected. A long and stubborn contest in the New York delegation between Pulmer and Hedges ended today lu a victory for Palmer, after several caucuses bad been mude. Today's battle promises to bo n vory interest ing three-cornered struggle, with chances somewhat lu favor of Palmer, since lio is to receive the uulted support of tho New York delegation. tub a. a. it.'s.

Tho first and chief characterlstlo of n battlo ship should bo IU ability to de stroy it adversary, and this depends on tho strength of IU armament. Tho second should bo its ability to prevent being destroyed, nnd tlds depends on tho strength of the armor with which Its hull and battery are pro tected. The third feature should bo Ita speed, and the fourth Its coal endur ance. Theso last aro necessarily subor dinate features. Acting near tho baso of supplies, it would bo useless to load tho bunkers of our ships with 900 tons of coal, tho usual allowance to English battlo ships of a similar sizo. Wo think it better to take COO tons from coal and put It Into armor and armament. A further saving of weight lies in oar moderate freeboard. Steer ing a middlo course between tho low hulls of the original monitors and tho towering proportions which have been attained by an extravagant reaction from that system, resembling tho great four-story structures of thrco centuries ago, wo havo placed our 13-Inch guns eighteen feet abovo tho water lino, to enable our ships to fight bows on In al most any sea, while abovo them nro the 8-Inch guns, twenty-fivo feet from tho water, which could bo fought in a hurri cane. Economizing weights in theso two re spects has enabled our constructors to give to our battlo ships a battery more powerful and more efficient than that of any ship yet designed ornlloat. That wo have succeeded In this respect is not denied by any of our critics, whllo at tho same time wo havo thickness nnd strength of armor, giving tho ships defenslvo power substantially as great as that of tho royal sovereign class, the latest product of English designs In battle ships. Secretary Tracy in North American Review. The Safe's Worst Enemy. Some months ago correspondence was carried on by experts as to whether it was possible to open n safe by the aid of a blowpipe, using compressed oxygen. A man calling himself "Mr. Grant," of Antwerp, registered at a ho tel in Hanover, tho lower floor of which was occupied by tho Bank of Saxony. Ho was accommodated with a room over head. One fine morning "Mr. Grant" disappeared, and it was discovered that ho had penetrated Into tho bank offices by breaking up tho floor and descend ing by a ropo ladder. After having attached an India rub ber tube to ono of tho gas Jets ho blow a current of oxygen with It from a re tort brought with him, using tho blow pipe, and succeeded in molting an opening through tho door of that great steel safe used by tho bank for holding smaller ones. lie was In the act of operating on tho smaller Inner safe when he must havo been disturbed, for ho decamped. Tho safe contained some 250,000 In gold and notes, besides se curities. The heat caused by such n llamo will melt any metal; even tho hardest platinum cannot stand it. It Is too evident that owners of safes whore valuables aro stored need to bo cautious about their neighbors' tenants. London Bankers' Magazine Wonderful Intefllconoo of Birds. Dr. C. C. Abbott says that in experi menting on tho intelligence of birds ho placed a number of pieces of woolen yarn red, yellow, green, purplo and gray In color near a treo In which Bal timore orioles wero building their nest. Tho pieces of yarn wero all exactly alike except in color. There was an equal number of threads of each color, tho red and yellow being purposely placed on top. Tho birds chose only tho duller colors, taking all of tho gray and a few threads of tho purplo when the nest was nearly dono. Not a singlo thread of tho yellow or bright red was touched, tho birds seeming to instinctively know that such loud colors would make their domicile too conspicuous. Again ho experimented by girdling tho branches upon which nests wero located, causing tho leavps to shrivel and blow away. Although they had laid their eggs, the birds invariably loft their nests. If tho nests contained young when tho leaves dried up, not wltlistanding the oxposure, thoy would feed tho littlo ones until they were able to toko care of themselves.

Listening at tentively Lincoln replied: "I tell you, judgo, you go right down to tho Capi tol and get congress to pass an act au thorizing a prlvato soldier to knock down his captain. Then come back hero tuul I will pardon yourman." Tho Judgo says that thero was such an air of quizzical oarnestness and desire to serve him about tho president's uiannor that thoy both broke out in an outburst of laughter.
