About a dosen miners from an adjoining colliery came upon the scene and rushed toward the building in a body, but as they stepped near the floor, another explosion took place and the entire building collapsed. Several kegs of powder caused the explosion, but how 'they exploded is as yet a mystery. Thousands of men and children are moaning and crying at the scene of the explosion. Nine bodies hare been taken from tha ruins. Two others are still covered up. All are past recognition. Wo one knows how the explosion happened. John B. Powell, one of the owners of the factory, was outside the building and was "hurled upon a culmbank 300 yards away. He was not seriously injured. The charred remains of the girls were brought in on a wagon to the undertaking establishment of A. . Williams. The legs and arms of all of them were burned off, and no one was able to recognize them, not evenmeir relatives, xne scenes at this time are the saddest witnessed here for years. The miners from the Gaylord slope rushed (KPee to the burning building and- fifally attempted to puI sway the JPiifflimber so that they might enter aim -possibly save the lives of some of the imprisoned girls, but the flames had gained too much headway and the men were absolutely powerless.

A very peculiar aoeidnt hauuuud a few flays ago to Juel Milan, a prominent Dunkard and pioneer, residing seven miles north of Wabash, which will result fatally. Mr. Milan was engaged in butchering a hog, when two fingers of his left hand were scratched by a bone in the animal. In a few days symptoms of blood poisoning appeared and his hand and arm ore now in a frightful condition. He cannot recover. Mr. Milan is 71 years old. At the annual election of officers of the Decatur County Farmers' and StockBreeders' Association, L. S. Donnelt was chosen President; F. A. Applegate, Vice President; Thomas J. Mount,.

The water in the pipe connecting the tank and range bad frozen during the night, and when it melted the cold water entered the boiler, and an explosiou followed, tearing the immense range to pieces and knocking the colored porter senseless. The explosion scattered the fire and fragments of iron over the room, breaking the ceiling and wiudowa in their course. None of the domestics were on duty The K. of P. celebration at Wash-ington-and Salem were notable affairs. At the former place 300 guests attended a banquet, and speeches were made by Mr. A, C.

Senator Boyd then sought to bring up the bill creating the department of geology, but Senator Johnson obtained the floor and a wrangled ensued. The Chair allowed-Senator Johnson five minutes, whioh be devoted to scoring the majority, denouncing the enforcement ot the rule whioh prevented the minority from explaining their votes. When the Ave minutes expired the presiding ofilcer interrupted Johnson, who continued his denunciations. Whereupon the Chair ordered the roll called. Great contusion and excitement prevailed and the Republican Senators gathered about Johnson, who defiantly challenged any doorkeeper to seat him. For a time a free fight seemed imminent, and when quiet was restored it was announced that a caucus of Republicans would be held immediately after adjournment. It is thought all tbe Bepublican Senators may decide to resign their seats and leave the Senate without a quorum. A communication was received from the Governor urging an investigation of the affairs of the Insane Asylum at Indianapolis. A joint resolution was adopted to that effect. In the House the following bilk were passed: To protect sheep husbandry; to legalize the town of Bensselaer; to appropriate $5,000 for the Soldiers' Orphans' Home; to create tbe Thirty-third, Thirty-fifth, and Fiftieth Judicial Districts; to legalize the acts of the TrusT tees ot the town ot Boonvillo, Ind.; to appropriate money to the Deaf and Dumb Institute; to regulate insurance companies.

There was a red flag fluttering in the House to-day, and for several seconds there was danger of "bloody gore" so much so that a lady fainted. A bill was under consideration providing for tho purchase of ten acres of land fronting the Logansport Insane Asylum, and Mr. FoBter urged the purqhase, and Mr. Adams, who opposed it, got iato a heated discussion, in whioh the "lie" was exchanged frequently.

If any other settlement believes this is not true, let her jump up and pop her heels together. Hear us whoop! Wilson County is there, hoar us!

MONTANA'S ABUNDANCE.

Montana, Feb. 18. IS8E. A man need not be very old to r'imomher When ObleSRO was in tho far Weec and a journey beyond the Mississippi was Itke foIng Into a far oonntry. Now a dozen milroods run to the Rooky Ho-tntalns, and mo Paoillc coast is separated H orn Now Yor! as Monday Is Irom Saturday, Lewis tnu Clarke, whose wonderful trip in the O' .ly years of the century gav the world first ki.cwlodge of this vast reg ion, were ow a year in reaching this localit y, rowing, poling, and pushing their oanoes tor nearlv 3,000 miles against tho swift current of the Missouri. Now it tokos a day or two in a Manitoba palace car or a free-colonist Bleeper to roach heroand no dangoror privation and three good taeals a day. Most people have been so accustomed to look upon this part of tbe continent as so far north, so cold, so unoiry, so far away and a lot of other wo-so'a that it would probably never he a fit ab jde for mankind; 4nt EllA TaaIa All aw tn th enntrar. Whr. hundreds of miles north of here there is a! country with winters no more severe than those ot the north New Eng'and States, and summers more suitable to the growing ot groins. Wo are separated from that region by the forty-ninth parallel, an Imaginary political boundary which nature wilt not take into account when adjusting affairs ra the future. The intermingling ot people of the same blood speech, roUgion. ideas, and ambitions will obliterate ic Statesmen have foretold it and business Interests will hasten it. Those who think Dakota and Montana aro sections ot the arctic region slipped down out ot place should look to tho, east. The south line ot Dakota is the forty-third parallel of north latitude. Follow this 11ns across the At tuntio and much of Europe will be found lying north of It All of Britain and Norway and Sweden lie a full degreo above the northern boundary of our two great Territories. Edinburgh, St. Futeraburg, Stockholm, and Christians, in the midst ot a Bwarming population, are on the parallel of fiitka. Alaska. And Sitka is as tar from Great Falls as the Gulf ot Mexico, Eneland and the north of Europe are made habitable by the influence of the Gulf Stream; The Kuro-SIwo the Black Ocean river of tho Aaiatio coast or the Japan Current, gives to this northwestern region the same mildness of climato that the Gulf Stream does, to Northern Europe, and why should not this country, like that, be filled with lito and industry? Water heated off the coast of Southern Asia sweeps across the Pacific Ocean and" tempers the climate of our western coast nearly up to the Arotlo Cirole. Xhis river o:' womvth sivos to British Columbia, Waatiingfon. and Oregon winters so mild that Ice is a scarce article, even In Sitka, while roses bloom in the giirdens along the coast at Christmas time. Im parting its heat to the air, whioh. ascending, passes over the Boaky Mountains muoh lower here than in tbe south, it affects the climate of a re-sion larger than tbe original t ntted States. Comparisons ot temperature made with the Atlantic ooast ore most favorable to Montana. The rivers of Montana closo later and ouen earlier than those of States far south ot this parallel. The Missouri 'River here is clear of ice a month earlier t oon it ia at Omahsu In the light of existing knowledge who will say that up to tho 60th parallel in this northwest is not as capable ot being settled as Russia anl Norway anc: Sweden south of that line? Glance at the physical features of this DortioD of the continent; and one will see a great plain sloping northward. It 4stae' latitude of the continental w-sf system. Nowhere else in the world is there such a succession of lakesnfioT navigable rivers; no other country' posseasis such an area of agricultural land so intersected by fresh wafer. Wlthlnfe-radtaK. ef "I.eOO milsa-is half tho fresh water ot the globe. At Grand Forks. Dakota, tne Bed River is less than 1.000 feet above the sea. Follow the river to its mouth. Lake Wlnnepeg, and It hat descended 900 feet, an din a boat one can steam westward on the Saskatchawan more than 1.000 miles, and then doubltho distance on other rivers. Follow tinRed River to Us source In Lake Traverse, and in high water a boat can reach Bl; Storm Lake, the source of the Minnesota, and thenoe pass to the Mississippi, thu 1 joining Hudson's Bay itnd tho Gulf of Mexico. Two hundred miles to the east is Lak Superior and a water way to the Atlantb . Three hundred miles to the west the Missouri can be reached, and tho traveler bs borne Into the shadow of tbe- Rooky Mountains, from whose western side onottur mighty river springs the Columbia and leaps to a different sea.

Of the twenty-two States and Territories west of tho Mississippi, each one ia larger than ail of New England, while Dakota ad Montana eaoh possess area double that of the New England States. Hoataaa, scarcely known by name in England, is larger than alt of Great Britain, and is ri ihest per capita ot all American comnunweaiths. Single counties of Montana aro larger than fair-sized Eastern States. Tho eounties-ot Caoteau and Dawson, in Nch Montana, contain more acres than tho S ate of Iowa. With the exception of a few mountains and high buttes. the whole of the two oountiog is described as a rolling prairie, covered with grass and filled with running streams. The main rivers are the Missouri, Milk. Marias, Sun. and Teton, a total of 1.200 mlks of waterways, not to speak of mimorOUS tributaries, all flowing through valleys ot generous width and of groat depth and richness ot soil. Here the story ot the buffalo was closed. Strange that the Ameiican people, usually sagacious, so long ooitsldcred this Western land as sterile and worthless, regardless ot the fact that it gove support to countless hoods of untamed cat' Lo. it is no doubt true that animal lif hod ita origin in the warmur climates, bat Itis also true that the coldur climates have developed the most sturdy, energetlo and brainy races ot men a well as the best breeds ot domestic animals. Frost aud health linos seem to be synonymous. The raoos of the frost olimoa ore the most Igorous; It is the lesson of history thatSoitliern nations have always been more su oe -ful in war and progressive ia peace than their Southern neighbors. The meteriol and moral conquest of the world belongs to the raoos of the frost lands; they haw . boon the most energetic explorers and pioneers, the most adventurous colonizers the most active merchants, the best founders of governments, and the wisest of rulers. Banitary statistics prove the healthlulness ot the Nortawest for both mankind and animal life. Tl.ore is more sunshine here than in tho Eas t, and invalids begin to oome and find health under tho gonial sklos. The eonditionii, too. aro most favorablo to the stock industry. Thore is an abundance ot grass, th most nutritious ot food, tho climato is invigorating and heathful, water i abundant, and everything favors tho conversion ot tho products ot field and pasture into thn finest beef, mutton and pork, into eymmetxi sal and enduring horseflesh, Into wool, arid into that most useful ot all domestic animals, the milch now. Sheep do romnrkably well, und the businosa hat aisumad such mngnltndo that tho Cock-masters have a Territorial organization and support a monthly colled the Montana Wool )rou: published at FortBonton, and wot I shipments annually run into millions ot Hounds. Sheep pelts and cow hides have taceh the place of buffalo hides and furs which formerly gave prominence to this region. Horses do quite as well as sheep, and eve; y year Increases tha demand for Montana horses. Tho mounted police ot the British D imlnlon draw thoir supplies from this Territory, and in a reoont call for the purchase ol cavalry horses for the Cnltod Stales army the Quartermaster General exp ossed a preference for Montana stook. Tim possibilities of the country, however, are not confined to stock raising alone;, the sail is exceedingly rioh, and wherover cultivated yields prolific crops.
