Louisville, April 28.—A heavy rain, with hail and lightning, prevailed in this city to-day. At 1 o'clock four boys were killed in the east end of town by lightning. The accident occurred at Twenty-sixth and Market streets. The boys were playing baseball. Their ages ranged from 12 to 14. They were pupils of the school, and the disaster happened during recess. Their names are Lee Fleck, Joe Shulty, Will Tayalser and William Soete. The three last-named died a few minutes after being taken to their homes in the neighborhood. The latter is burned beyond recognition. The game was just concluded and the bell summoning them to their school duties was ringing, thereby causing the boys to be on the spot where their coats and hats had been placed before they began their game. As the flash struck the earth the boys were for a moment obscured from shutters, which can only be reached from the outside by passing through three spacious ante-chambers, in which are posted eighty Cossacks, armed to the teeth. They are allowed to speak and move about in the two outer rooms, but in the hall adjoining the Czar's bedroom perfect silence is maintained all night. The General on duty for the day sits in an easy chair, his Cossack's sitting on a divan which runs around the whole room. At the General's right is a knob of an electric apparatus which rings a bell in every guardhouse within the palace grounds. When the Emperor is about to retire, before shutting the door he removes the outer handles so no entrance can be effected until he himself personally opens the door from the inside. Unlike his father, he cannot endure armed soldiers in his bedchamber. Several mines have been discovered at St. Petersburg, and a quantity of dynamite was seized just after it had been introduced into the courtyard of the palace of Gotschina, concealed in a load of hay. The Czarina is still subject to severe nervous attacks and strange hallucinations. Hessy Helfmann's illness is expected to be brought to a close in a very short time, and it is thought that this will be a signal for her execution. The Paris "Intransigeant" declares that she has been ruthlessly tortured since she has been a prisoner. St. Petersburg, April 28.—On Easter Day revolutionary proclamations from the Land and Liberty party were found enclosed in Easter eggs distributed in the streets of Moscow. The proclamation urges the peasantry. BUSINESS DIRECTORS PHYSICIANS. Dr. Reginald A. Fergusson, or Anaheim Sanatorium. Dr. Alice Higgins, office corner & Lemon streets. Dr. A. J. Howe, Santa Ana.

The latter is burned beyond recognition. The game was just concluded and the bell summoning them to their school duties was ringing, thereby causing the boys to be on the spot where their coats and hats had been placed before they began their game. As the flash struck the earth the boys were for a moment obscured from sight, so vivid was the lightning. When the few people in the neighborhood again looked towards the boys they were all flat on the ground. Two gentlemen ran to the spot, and to their horror discovered the four boys with their faces upturned in the direction of the sky, from which they had but shortly before received their summons. Two other boys, stunned, lay near their companions. Several gentlemen quickly procured water and quenched the fire in the clothing of the boys, and stamped out the flames which were fast burning parts of their apparel that had been torn from their bodies. Vain efforts were made to revive all of the boys, who appeared lifeless, and four of whom were recognized as being positively dead. Doctors Griffith, Given and Dougherty, who arrived shortly after the accident, examined the boys, and found that four out of the six had been struck dead. The lightning culminated directly over William Soete, son of a teacher, to whose class all of the boys belonged. The spot of earth which bears the marks of a bolt could be covered by a bushel measure. The surface of the ground is but little disturbed, and resembles a hole which might have been driven in by a crowbar. On the ground, two or three feet from the spot where the bolt entered, could be seen, when the reporter visited the place, pieces of clothing, parts of shirts, drawers, suspenders, and fragments of boots, all burned and blackened by the electric fire, resembling a mass of chopped-up rags baked ready for the manufacture of paper. Young Soete was worse disfigured than any of the rest. His clothes were literally burned from his body, and pieces of scorched clothing were picked up on the spot where he fell. His body was burned to a crisp and brought to a close in a very short time; and it is thought that this will be a signal for her execution. The Paris “Intransigeant” declares that she has been ruthlessly tortured since she has been a prisoner. St. Petersburg, April 28.—On Easter Day revolutionary proclamations from the Land and Liberty party were found enclosed in Easter eggs distributed in the streets of Moscow. The proclamation urges the peasantry to seize the land and refuse to pay taxes or serve in the army. AN APPALLING CALAMITY. Elgin, Ill., April 28th.—Between 8 and 9 o'clock this morning a small boat running over the Fox River, between East and West Elgin, as a ferry to take the place of the bridge recently washed away, was capsized, and all the passengers to the number of fifteen, with but one exception, were drowned. The boat was a mere scow, just purchased at a cost of $150, and was propelled by a rope. The first trip was made yesterday afternoon. These lost are mainly school children, who were on their way to school on the west side. The accident occurred in mid stream, but from what cause cannot now be told. Chicago, April 28th.—The following press account from Elgin is the most reliable yet received and gives the full particulars: The frightful calamity of this morning was caused by the swamping of the ferry-boat used in crossing the river at Chicago street. It is estimated that there were 30 passengers upon the boat and only 14 were saved. The boat was crossing the river from the west side, and when nearly two-thirds of the way over began to flood with water. The passengers in consternation immediately flocked to the dry part of the boat, clinging to the railing, which giving way precipitated them into the river. As the water poured into the boat it sank below the surface, leaving thirty human souls battling for life in the angry current. The water is fully 15 feet deep, and the current runs at the rate of six miles an hour, or more. The Council ordered the boat as soon as the bridge fell, and it is a matter of surprise that the accident had not occurred sooner. The boat is only 11 Uneasy Lies the Head That Wears a Crown. New York, April 28th.—A cablegram letter from St. Petersburg gives a gloomy account of the new Czar's life at the castle of Gotschina, thirty miles from the capital. Before the court removed thither several hundred artisans of the Preobrajinski regiment were sent to make necessary alterations. At midnight they assembled in the church at Gotschina and were sworn to silence, death or Siberia being the penalty of their oath. Ten roubles were the price of each man's silence. The tongues of the workmen were soon loosened, however, and the following is a description of the precautions against assassination made in the palace of the Czar: A subterranean passage leads from the Czar's room to the stables, where a number of horses are kept saddled and bridled day and night. Sentinels are posted at intervals of twenty yards all around the building. The imperial bedroom has two windows, protected at night by massive iron clinging to the railing, which giving way precipitated them into the river. As the water poured into the boat it sank below the surface, leaving thirty human souls battling for life in the angry current. The water is fully 15 feet deep, and the current runs at the rate of six miles an hour, or more. The Council ordered the boat as soon as the bridge fell, and it is a matter of surprise that the accident had not occurred sooner. The boat is only 11 by 18 feet, and does not stand more than six inches above the water. Much indignation is felt both against the Council and the builders of the boat. BAD MR. SMITH. Vancouver, B.C., April 28th.—Methodist circles are stirred by the open secession from their communion by Rev. R. H. Smith, Superintendent of Missions and head of the church in this province. It appears that some weeks ago Mr. Smith delivered a course of sermons, in which he boldly declared his disbelief in the doctrine of eternal punishment. Last night, at the annual district meeting of the body, Mr. Smith took the chair after the devotional exercises. Objection was raised to the doctrinal views which Rev. Mr. Smith had announced during the year from his pulpit, to which he replied that he was no longer to be bound by the close standard of the church, and tendered his resignation as a member of the body, which was accepted, and he withdrew from the meeting. This action of Mr. Smith will excite the liveliest interest in this city and throughout Canada, where he is widely known and greatly respected. It is said that he will be followed by a number of his congregation, and that an independent church will be established. BUSINESS DIRECTORY PHYSICIANS. A. REGINALD A.
