XATR NEWS ITEMS. Lieut Qreely and six of his fellowexplorers wero taken from their permanent camp in Smith's Sound, on June 23, by the steamers Thotis and Bear, and were landed, July 17, at St. John's, Newfoundland. 8ov. enteen others Of tho expedition perished from starvation, and one was lost while hunting seals. Tho corpses of twelve of the party wero brought back, tho remains of the other Ave having been swept out to sea by the winds. Greely and his surviving associates would have perished in forty-eight hours but for the roller expedition. Thoy won the honor of reaching the farthest known point to tho northward. Capt. Ash, ice-pilot of the Bear, gives the following particulars of tho discovery and rescue of Lieut. Grecly and his companions: An officer of the Thetis found a record on one point of land, intimating that Greely and party were all well, and had left Fort Conger Aug. i), and, after an auspicious journey, ar

rived at Barred Inlet Sept. 29. The record also Indicated the exact point on Cape Sabine where the victorious exploring party were encamped. The steam launch of the Bear was immediately dispatched to the indicated locality, which was distant abont three miles. In the meantime the Thetis sounded her whistle, which was heard by Greely in his oamp. The unwonted sound awoke the slumbering and fast-stakhiii explorers. When the launch reached the toe in the vicinity of the camp a solitary man was seen descending to the strand with uncertain steps. He had heard the whistle aad saw the approaching boat. The crew of the launch regarded this as an evil omen. As soon as the ice foot was touched I jumped on shore, and acepsted the Ions stranger: "How are you all?" He answered faintly: "There are seven of ns left yet." We were all struck with dismay. Gathering up hastily a little food and stimulants, we hastened to the Greely encampment, and there beheld a heait-shattertng scene. A gsle or wind was blowing. The tent had been shattered and bad fallen on the wearied and dying men. We entered and saw a scene 'of unspeakable misery and desolation. Haggard faces, staring eyes gazed at us. One of the six sufferers was pointed to as dying. We at once began to feed them with hght food, and dispatched the launch to the Thetis for asslstanoe, Cant. Emroy and Or. Ames eame on shore, a fire was kindled, hot milk-punch was prepared, restoratives were applied, and in less than an hour the woebegone sufferers were able to stand staggeringly on their feet Ten bodies were unearthed and two disinterred from the toe foot and brought down to the steam-launch to be transferred to the ships. Two of the living party were strong enough to be led along on their feet. The other five were borne down on stretchers with the greatest care. In the midst of a tempestuous sea and a terrible Rale of wind the living and dead of the Greely arctic colony wero plaoed on board the Bear and Thetis and conveyed to St John's.

SHOT DOWN AT HIS POST: The Jailer at Owensboro, Ky., Killed by an Angry Mobt

Swift Vengeance Upon a Negro Two of the Ljnohers Slain, tOwensboro (Ky.) telegram. An armed mob attacked tho County Jail, killing the jailor, W. J. Lucas, breaking in the doors of the cell-room, and taking Bichard May, a negro, out and hanging him to a tree in tho court house yard. The court bouse and jail are surrounded by crowds of people, discussing tho outrage and deploring the loss of a brave county officer, who died at his post of duty. The negro who was hanged was charged with attempting assault on tho person of Miss Kelly, daughter of a farmer living a few miles above Owensboro, about ten days since. The mob had organized on several nights during the past week, but did not attempt to carry ont their deigns. Last night about midnight, as your correspondent was returning to the city, be wfts halted by five masked men near the gravel road toll-gate, but suffered to pass without molestation. Many persons in the city wero on the lookout for a Sunday night visit from tho mob,andtbsy were not disappointed. They entored the city about 1:30 o'clock and surrounded the jail. The jailer called to his wife to have his pistols in readiness, and refused to open the doors of the jail. They demanded of bim the keys. He replied that "bo was an officer of the law and intended to do his duty." They replied "that be would give up the keys and then do bis duty." He replied that "he would do bis duty or die," and some one in tbe crowd eried, D it, die then!" The' jailer was at this time up stairs on a back porch on the north side of tbe jail, and just between the jail and the residence. The mob then began firing, and the fire was returned by the Sheriff and his son Thomas, a boy aged about 1G. They fired thirteen shots, the mob firing, in tbe opinion of some, aa many as 100. Jailer Lucas fired from the porch and his son from the front windows. Two of the mob are reported as kiUed, eye-witnesses saying that they saw one man fall shot by Tom Lncas, and that be was placed on a horse and quickly carried off. After firing six shots from tbe porch the jailer was shot, the ball entering his right side, near the nipple. He was carried to bis

room, still refusing to give np the keys. His

wife took a put ol and tried to repel the mob, but they crowded up the stairs and forced her to give tip the cell keys. Tbe outer door was battered down with a sledge hammer. They then took May from his cell and hung him to the only available limb in the Court House yard. It was stated they had ropes prepared for two other victims. The rope

was a new one. and the knot a regular hang

man's knot The jail premises are badly j

riddled with bullets. The jailer carried a lantern in his hand and afforded a good target for the mob. After hanging their victim the mob departed, leaving a number of masks about the jail premises. It is stated that among them were a number of negroes and that a portion of them came from Indiana, opposite Owensboro, where the girl's

father once lived. Mar was the third micro haoced in the

court bouse yard by t mob and tbe fourth victim of the gallows iu the county. Tha outrage of last night tie universally condemned. Jailer Liica, in spite of prompt alleviation, died at 7 this morning. He was a Virginian, a brave xOonfederate officer. The report of two of the mob being killed has not been confirmed. One of the mob was heard to say as they left, however, that two of their number had been wounded The excitement has continued all day and

late this evening it was reported that tho negroes were organizing to mob Kelly, tbe father of the girl, for they think he raised the mob.

A cable dispatch from Paris suvb: Three

cases of cholera occurred here yesterday, one of which proved fatal. It is believed they are sporadic. The beat is intense and the streets are deserted. All the cholera patients have been removed from the hospitals to pest houses in the suburbs. The Mayor of Toulon has been stricken down with the plague. There

were seventy-two deaths at Marseilles durine the last twenty-four hours.

showing an increasing virulence in the epidemic. Dr. Koch has gone to Berne to confer with the Swiss authorities as to the

best means of excluding cholera from Switzerland anion? the country ix-onlo

around Toulon, as the cholera is increasing in the country districts. Thirteen deaths occurred here last night. Austria is becoming alarmed, and has asked the Porte to co-operate in measures to prevent the cholera from entering Austria and Turkey.

Jne authorities of Udessa, Jtussia, have

quarantined French vessels from the Mediterranean for two weeks. Every effort possible is being pnt forth to keep tbe

Omaha dispatch to Chlcsso Herald. M. Boussaud, a wealthy cattle-owner, whose herds tange in the unorganized territory of Northwestern Nebraska, has just returned from tho annual "round-up" in that region, and relates a tale of the plains that is, in some respects, a counterpart of tbe orthodox Mazeppa, When Boussaud re&ehed his ranch about the middle of June he found his cowboys nursing a young man whom they had rescued from the back of a broncho. When discovered tho modern Mazeppa was lasheh to the horse, entirely naked and unconscious. The animal was about broken down, aa if from long luuning, and was easily lassoed by tho cowboys, who cut the thongs and released tho strange captive. This happened about two weeks before BousKaud's arrival, and during all that time tbe stranger had lain in a stupor. A few days before Bousaaud left on his return journey to Omaha, having a little medical knowledge, he succeeded in restoring the patient to consciousness, and his recovery was rapid. When ablo to talk he said his ntmo was Henry Bnrbank, that he was an Englishman, and 34 years of age. Abont three years ago at Fatmoutu, England, he formed a partnership with a friend named Thomas Wilson, some years his senior, and with him came to America, to embark iu the cattle business. They cast about for awhile and finally settled in Northwestern Nebraska, where the range was unlimited, and herders few and far apart. They built a comfortable ranch by a little stneam, where Wilson's young wife reigned as housekeeper, attended by two or three female domestics. Burbank, who is a handsome young gallant, found it agreeable, while Wilson was absent riding about the range, to make love to the latter' s wife. ThiR continued for some months, until in the latter part of May one of the cowboys who had a grievance against Burbank surprised him and Mrs. Wilson in a compromising situation, and reported it to the woman's husband, whose jealousy had already been aroused. That night Bur,bank was captured while asleep in bed by Wilson and three of his men and bound "before he had a chance to make any resistance. After mutilating him Wilson had him stripped of every bit of clothing and bound on the back of a wild broncho, which was started off by a vigorous lashing. Be fore morning Bnrbank became unconscious, and was therefore unable to tell anything about his terrible trip. He thinks ibit the outrage was committed on the night of May 27, and he was rescued on tbe morning of June 3, which would make seven days that he had been traveling about the plains on the horse's back, without food or drink, and exposed to the sun and wind. Wilson's ranch is about 200 miles from the spot where Burbank was found, but it is hardly probable that the broncho took a direct course, and, therefore, must have covered many moro miles in his wild journey. When fully restored to health Burbank proposes to make a visit of retaliation on Wilson, and in this he will be backed by Boussaud's men and those of the Ogailala Land and Cattle Company, whose range is near Boussaud's.

SMALL KOTES.

Tha Printing- of Thorn to B Beavmod. Washington dispatch.! It will be a relief to merchants and busi

ness men to learn that the printing of green

backs of small denominations is to be re

sumed at once, the appropriation for that purpose now being available. The matter has been turned over to the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, and it is expected that a full supply of f 1 bills will be turned ont within thirty days. If the appropriation is sufficient, the bureau will begin printing $3 bills. Congress, however, set apart only a small sum for printing these bills, and there is doubt at the Treasury Department whether it will be enough to allow the printins of

anything but $1 notes.

(Bloomington (Ind.) dispatch.! A terrible boiler explosion occurred near Harrodsburg, this county, causing the instant death of three persons, and perhaps fatally injuring four others. Tho shock could be heard for miles. Soon after the noise neighbors began gathering from every direction. When they reaohed the place a fearful spectacle presented itself. For yards about heavy timbers were thrown, and pieces of tho boiler were scattered for hundreds of feet. It Beems that a new inspirator had recently been placed on the engine, which would not work, and it exploded while experimenting. Wesley Carter, head engineer, was instantly lolled. When found ho was lying under a pile of rubbish. He had been thrown over thirty feet. His head had been almost blown from his body, and both arms wero broken. He was a single man. Near him lay his son, dead, his breast terribly lacerated, the skull broken, and one leg almost blown off. Ho died instantly. The most pitiful light of all was old Billy Graves, who had only a few minutes before come over to the mill. He was standing near tbe boiler watching Carter's experiment when the explosion occurred. He lay fifty feet away, his head almost torn from his body, his legs broken, and pieces of the metal had pierced through his breast. When found he was alive, but soon died. He was one of the best citizens of the neighborhood. Billy Graves, his son, an employe of the mill, was also badly injured about tlw shoulder. His head was bruised terribly, and it is feared he cannot recover. John Beed, another employe, was injured in the same way, though not seriously. He was thrown in the air twenty feet while working at the saws.' A Mr. Collins, a stranger employed in the mill only a few days, was injured so that he can hardly recover. His arm is broken and pieces of tbe metal entered his abdomen. Another fatally injured is John Foddrill, an old man employed in tbe mill. He is injured about the head and breast, and, at this writing, is resting easily, but there are fears that he is internally injured. A workman named Calaban is seriously hurt about the baok, though the physicians say not necessarily fatal. All the injnred were carried to a house near by and a number of physicians lent the best aid possible. Three only of the men employed were injured, being in the rear of the mill.

BUBPSP IS A BIT, A Shocking Accident at Brooklyn. CNew York dispatch. The works of the Williamsburg Gas Light Company, in the eastern distriot of Brooklyn, are undergoing repairs. A number of men were engaged to-day in digging an immense pit into which the new gasometer of the company is to be sunk. The pits were deep and narrow. The inner sides were boarded np and beams placed from side to side to keep tbe iron sheeting in position. When a tub containing about a thousand pounds of dirt had been hoisted half way out of the pit to-day, the chain supporting it snapped in two. With a crash the entire mass fell to the bottom, knocking the cross-beams out of place and causing the Bides of the pit to collapse. Five men were buried beneath the mass, their mingled groans and the Bcreams of a number of people who had gathered about the place soon creating a panic in the neighborhood. An alarm was sent out and a company of firemen began the work of rescue, Michael MoDonough and Paul Quintan were taken out dead. Continuing their efforts the rescuers succeeded in unearthing Thomas Smith and Daniel Vestry, who are still alive but supposed to be fatally injured. David Isola, one of the workmen, is still missing. Butler's Attitude. Washington teleimm. Gen. B. F. Butler arrived here this morning and was interviewed by a Star reporter. He positively refused to discuss bis altitude or intimate his future course. He said the latter is a subject for consideration, and when be gives it the careful consideration it merits, he will declare himself over his own signature in no unmistakable terms. He pronounoes in a wholesome way any and all expressions or declarations purporting to come from him as false.

THE DEMOCRACY. Proceedings of the National Con vention at Chicago. Fourth Day, Chairman Vilas called the oonventtoii to order at precisely 11 o'clock, and prayer was offered by Itev. Dr. Clinton Locke. Before the balloting began, tbe Chairman of tho Pennsylvania delegation withdrew the name of Samuel J. Randall, Ths clerk then proceeded to call the roll. When Illinois waa reached. Gen. Palmers -id: "Illinois casta one vote for Thomas A. Hendricks." This announcement was followed bv a tremendous outbnrst of applause, and waving of handkerchiefs, which lasted several minutes. Changes in favor of Cleveland grew frequent as the call of states proceeded, and were greeted with tremendous cheering. When New York was reaohed, the Chairman, Mr. Manning, announced 73 voles for Grayer Cleveland, and then continued! "Mr. President, I Wish to state that, on polling the delegation, the vote stood 60 for Cleveland and 22 for Mr. Hendricks. Mr. Gallup, of New York I ask in tbe name of the disfranchised minority in this delegation that their vote be announced as called by the Chair. I ask that the announcement great confusion), I ask that it be announced in the language (hisses and confusion so that It waa Impossible to go on), in the language of the Chairman of our delegation stating the vote of our delegation upon the question. Tho contusion at this point was so great that It was lmposdlble to go on until an interruption of several minutes occurred. Tho Chair Anally qnieted them down, and said: "Tte statement of the Chairman (Mr. Manning) will be entered In tho minutes of the proceedings." Before any changes were made the ballot stood as follows:

Tllden received 2 votes in Ohio, Necessary to a choice. H7. At the announcement of Pennsylvania's vote there was a scramble among the delegations to see which could transfer their votes to the Cleveland column first. North Carolina changed her 23 votes from Bayard to Cleveland amid tremendous applause. Virginia gave Cleveland 23 votes and Hendricks 1. The confusion again became so great that nothing could be done. Everybody seemed desirous to get on the winding side. Order was not restored until the crowd had howled themselves hoarse. Changes were announced in the votes of Georgia, Florida, West Virginia. Maryland, Texas, Missouri, California, and other States. The Secretary then commenced the call of the roll of States. As soon as tbe vote of Alabama had lieen announced the attention of the delegates was attracted to a large painting of Gov. Cleveland which was being brought to tbe platform, and the call was interrupted by the ap1 Uuse which followed. Order having been restored, the Secretary called the roll of States for tbe purpose of verifying the ballot, with the following result:
