A COOL KKTltEAT.
Has Every Desirable Facility for an Enjoyable Summer bojoitrn. Persons desiring to combine recreation, entertainment, instruction and devotion with their summer outing will find Eagle Lake, on the Pensylvania Lines, near Warsaw Ind., the ideal spot. Tbis pretty resort is site of Wii.ona Assembly and Summer school, the youngest of the Chautauqua Assembly^. The grounds have been well and favorabley known as Spring Fountain Park. They consiitue about two hundred acres of romantic woodland st etching nearly two miles alog the eastern shore of Eagle Lake, a beautiful sheet of water. The grounds have been platted and pretty cottages constitute the summer homes of perbons who here find rest and liealthgiving recreation in invigoratiug air, amid attractive suiroundings. Some desirable cottage sites are ytt obtainable. In addition to the portion laid out for building purposes, a line park has been made. There is also a race track with overlooking amphitheatre furnishing splendid facilities for outdoor athletic sports. The large auditorium has a s-eating capacity ot 3,000, and the several college halls are use.l io Assembly purposes. A good hotel, lestaurants anc! .supply stores furniah means ot liviug at reasonable rates. A large lleet of row boats with two steamers will permit indulgence in boating, and persons fond of fishing may enjoy that pastime to satisfactory extent, as the lake teems with fish. The low tourist rates over the Pennsylvania Lines place these pleasures within easy reach. The rate will be in effeet all season from ticket stations on these lines. In addition to the season tourist tickets, a low rate will also be effect for round trip tickets good fifteen days. Ticket agents of the Pennsylvania Lines will furnish them, and they may be obtained from agents of connecting lines. The Assenbly Department opens July 1st and continues four weeks during which time prominent speakers will discuss live topics. During August there will be educationel work under Prest. Johu M. Coulter.[of Lake Forest University,in connection with the Assembly. For details regarding rates of fare, time ot trains, etc., apply to nearest Pennsylvania Line Ticket Agent, or address F. Van Dusen, Chief Assistant General Passenger Agent, Pittsburgh, Pa. Applications for information concerning the resort should be addressed to Secretary E. S. Scott, Eagle Lake, Ind.
Knights Templar Conclave The sale of low rate tickets will not be restricted to members of the organizations mentioned, but the public generally may take advantage of them.
The Asbury Park excursion will doubtless attract many to that delightful ocean resort. Atlantic City, Cape May, Long Branch and all the famous watering places along the New Jersey coast are located on the Pennsylvania Lines, hence this will be a desirab.p opportunity to visit the seashore. The Denver excursion will be just the thing for a sight-seeing jaunt thro' the far West, as tickets will be honored going one way and returning a different route through the most romantic scenery beyond the Mississippi and Missouri rivers. Variable route privileges will also be accorded Boston excur sionists, enabling them to visit Niagara Falls, Montreal, Thousand Tslands and St. Lawrence Rapids, the White Mountains, the Hudson River territory, and to return by steamer on Long Island Sound, after sight-seeing at Newport. Narrngansett Pier, Nantucket and the Cape Cod resorts to New York and thence through the agricultural paradise of the Keystone State, along the Susquehanna and Juniata rivers, over the Alleghenies, around famous Horse Shoe Curve, through historic Johnstown and the coke and iron regions of Western Pennsylvania. It is also expected that Boston excursionists over the Pennsylvania Lines will be privileged to return via Baltimore and Washington if they so desire.
In addition to the above, there will be plenty of other cheap excursions over the Pennsylvania Lines to various points. As the season is som8 weeks away, arrangements in detail have not been consummated, but it is certain that no railway will offer better inducements than the liberal 6oncesslons in rates and privileges that may be enjoyed by travelers over the Pennsylvania Lines. This fact may readily be ascertained upon application to any passenger or ticket agent of these lines, or by addressing F. VAN DUSEN, Chief Assistant Gen. Pass. Agt., Pittsburg, Pa. apr6wd-t-s-tf

CINCINNATI, July 18.—At
2
p. m. yes
terday uu alarm was turned in from box 18. A big lire had started iu the ostory hay and feed warehouse of J. H. Hernie-suli fc Company at Water and Walnut streets. It spread so as to threaten the entire square bounded by Walnut, Water, Vine and Front streets, and a general alarm soon called out tne entire department. The cquare is almost in ashes, and the flames at times came very near reaching buildings across the streets.
Besides the loss of property two firemen are dead and 10 are injured. The dead are:
Captain Michael Healy of company No. 29. Thomas Wisbey, pipeman, company No. 8, sou of the late tire chiol, Lew Wisbey.
The injured are: Lieuteiitaut. F. B. Newman, company No. •Jl) dangerously.

Theodore Simpson, bookkeeper tor Hermesch Company, had his lnp xractured b.v jumping lrom a second-.-:tory v/indow.
Ol the 1() iiremen injured six are at the hospital and 10 are at their homes. It is bt'lie/ed the lire originated from a match or cigar stump thrown careiessly near tne hay. The warehouse went up like an explosion. Tlien the fire spread to Nelson, Morris tx Company large stables, but their large warehouse stood fireproof. The adjoinmg commission and tobacco warehouses however went like piles of kindling, I causing such a conflagration as to threaten the north end o.t" the (Suspension bridge.
George O. Brown had 8,000 bags of peanuts in his oommisson house. They unrned like oil and soon wiped out the building and stock, taking with it the large l-story tobacco warehouse of L. beaman & Company, which was full of leaf tobacco. All die streams of water had no effect on the lire these warehouses and the lireuien exerted themselves to save other buildings. The dense, smoke from the burning piles of tobacco prevented the Iiremen from seeing their danger.
The wall ot the Simmons & Norris building that had witnstood the roaring liames all through the progress ot the conflagration up to this time suddenly swayed, cracked, and tnen, sight of 10,000 people and the hearing of many mure, came the death-deaimg crasn.
The crowd was thrilled at the burial oi brave, live men beneath burning timber and scorched stone and bricks. Horror was depicted on every lace. Women who stood nearby swooned and addea to the wild excitement.
Comrades sprang lor ward. The bluecoats were there, too, working madly at rue mass ot wreckage. The WOI-K of rescue went on rapidly as possible, despite the great difficulty experienced in delving in the tremendous Oiazing I Cleveland heap uiiiiil all the dead and injured Ualtimoi-e were recovered.
When the walls of these warehouses fell the fire spread all directions, damaging Haymeyer Sous & Company, Western Dressed Cork company and Heuru, Heile As Sons.

'MINERS IMPFNSONED.
Cave of Kock Cuts Oil" Communication With Nine Men. IKON MOUNTAIN, Mich., July IS.— Nine miners are imprisoned in a room iu the first level of the Pewabic mine, and the chances are that some of them will be taken out dead. An immense cave of rock and timber occurred on the first level just as the men were quitting work and it is feared that some of them were caught and crushed to death.:
A large rescue crew is at work, but it will be fully 10 hours before the ni .in are reached, as fully 40 feet of broken rock, ore and timber will have to be excavated, ana tins is horribly slow work.
The accident is similar to the one which happened at this mine s.mie years ago and was caused by the timbers giving away. It is impossible to learn the names of all the men, but Stephen Bowden, Fred Webber and Johu Johnson are among the number.
Information has just come from the mine to the effect that some of the men are alive, communication having been established by hammering on the pipe
Inch supplies the room with air. Mine officials are confident that the men will be found ui.tijured. Five ot the men are Italians, two Cormshmen and two Scandinavians.
