ANOTHER COLLISION. THIS IS ON THE HOCKING VALLEY ROAD. The Kankakee Marshes Sea at Flame Explosion of Gaa Motors at CbJeago A Generous ilver Cincinnati Sporting Editors Indicted, PRIESTS BANISHED. Twenty-Are Catholic dersnnca Exiled in Russia. Berlin special: Advices have been received here from St. Petersburgh. that twenty-five Catholic priests were recently exiled from the Vistula district, in which they have been charged with the care of souls,' on the charge that they had opposed the authorities. They were to be sent to Grondo and Kieff. The other day, under guard, the priests started for their destinations. A large number of peasants gathered, and, seeing that the priests were being forced to leave, made an attempt to ress cue them from the gendarmewhich had them in charge. A desperate fight followed. The peasants would most likely have succeeded in their object had not the gendarmes been reimorced by a number of Cossacks. Even then the peasants con tinued to fight for the release of the priests. Finally the Cossacks fired into the crowd, killing and wounding many persons. The affair has caused great excitement among the peasants, who at no time are lovers ol the Cossacks. Further trouble is feared. The priests Knowing iuu well tnat there could be only one outcome to such adisoute. tried their best to calm the excited feelings of the peasants and thus avoid bloodshed. The peasants, however, would' not listen, but insisted upon freeing them in spite of their ex pressed wisnes to the contrary. Alter the volley was fired into the crowd the peasants dispersed and the gendarmes started away with thoir prisoners. It)BK MEJi Klf.T.Kn.

THASKSGIAISG PROCLAMATION.

Sot. SO Bet Apart as a Day of Prayer and Gratitude. Tbe President has Issued the following Thanksglvlng-day proclamation: By the President of the United States of America A proclamation: While the American people should every day remember, by praise and thanksclvinu, the divine goodness and mercy which nave fallowed them sinoe their beginning as a nation, it Is fitting that one day in each year shoulil be 08ptoiaUy devoted to tbe contemplation of the Dlesstsgs we have received from the hand of God, and to the grateful acknowledgment of his loving kindness. Therefore, I, Grover Cleveland, President of the United States, do hereby desiccate and set apart Thursday, the 3oth day of the present month of November, as a day of thanksgiving and praise, to be kept and observed by all the people ot our land On that day let us forego onr ordinary work and employments and assemble In our usual places of worship, where w4 may recall all that God has done for us and where, from gratefnl hearts, ocr united tribute of praise and song may reach the Throne ot Grace.

By the President: WaltEB Q. GbkshaV. necretary 01 mat -. BENEFIT OF REPEAL. B. a. Dun's Weekly Review Tells of Qood Results. B. CL Sun Co's Weekly Knvlew of Trade says: The repeal of the silver purchase act does good already. The business world in every part of the country reckons it Help tal. and tbe tone of tbe trade Is more con tdent It is hardly time as yet for tbe eflecta to be felt to any groat extent in manufactures but bankers are more lib eral in accommodations and merchants more honefnl in narchases. It Is well to remember that the act will do less good than if it had been passed early In the spring or without delay nftor congress assembled. It cannot now prevent several thousand failures which nave already oc curred, nor relieve creditors from resulting embarrassments. It cannot now save from loss a multitude of manufacturing estab lishments v htcb have closed because tbe future seemed uncertain. It 111 go far to restore business confidence which was much needed, but many may expect from the measure larger results than can at this lata day be realized. CHURCH EXTENSION WORK. Many Special Cases Expected to Be Passed This Tear. Bishop Andrews presided at tho morning session ot the general committee on church extension of the Methodist Church, held in St Paul. Minn. A communication from the California General Conference, asking aid In the erection of a German church in the center of San Francisco and an exception to the rulo of $10,000 limita tion, was referred to the committee on spe cial cases. The representatives of confer enoe districts who had not reported did so. and the discussion of amounts asked and to be authorized given to needy churches was continued. It is understood that n.any special eases will be passed this year with' out assistance because of the liberal dona tions to churches In actual need. Thirty thousand dollars more than last year bas beta thus expended. $00,000 more than last year loaned, and 083 churches added, be ing eighty more than in any previous year, so that the amount at the disposal ot the committee Is limited. TRAIN ROBBERS CAUGHT. Hunted Dm la Arkansas and Part of the Plunder Recovered. Five ot the band of seven who went through an Iron Mountain train and robbed passengers near OUphant, Ark., have now been captured. Two are In the jail at Bates vllle, and three have been carried overland to Newport. A considerable part of the plunder has been recovered from the two men in jail. Including pocket books, money, rings and watches. The three men carried overland were captured in White River bottoms, after the exchange ot sev eral shots, which wounded one of tbe rob' ben, Tbe two men in jail at Batesvllle give their names as Lemou and Arnett. They are sullen and refuse to talk. They haTe every appearance of desperate men. wreck uv a tirrii. XBTfost Wiped Off the Earth. While tbe ship Volos was lying at the wharf at Santander, Spain, Friday even ing, she caught fire. Her cargo contained many barrels of petroleum and her captain said only twenty cases of dynamite. Tbe ere ms of many vessels near by rallied to subdue tbe flames, and tbe city fire de partment, headed by the governor of the province, was hard at work watched by thousands of citizens, when suddenly there was a stupendous roar and crash, caused by the explosion of the dynamite, and the next instant half the city was in ruins and flames, hundreds of people were killed, and many scores since have become insane from terror. Fired on Old Glory. La Llbertad (Honduras) dispatch: Hon duras fired upon tbe American Hag Mon day morning. By the alleged orders of President Vasquez and the express com mand qf the commissioner of tho port of Amapala seven cannon shots were fired after tbe Pacific mail steamship Costa Rica, 3ying the stars and stripes, as she steamed away, because she refused to surrender one of her passengers to the Honduras Government. United States Minister Baker was on board the Costa Rica at the time. Tho passenger about whom the trouble arouse is Policarpo Bonllla. who recently led the revolution In Honduras, but was defeated by General V asquez, He then fled to Nicaragua, and with 300 of his adherents joined the army of President Sacasa, who was engaged in an attempt to quell a rebellion. Bonllla had decided to leave Nicaragua, and sailed on the Costa Blca. Four Britalns Killed. A dispatch was received by Secretary Herbert from Captain H. F. Picking, com manding the Charleston, the senior officer of our fleet at Bio, stating that Saturday an explosion bad occurred at Mello's mag azine, and that a large quantity of gunpowder had been destroyed. The toss of this magazine may be a serious blow to Mello, as It Is believed his entire sui ply of powder, except what be had In his ship's magazine, was stored away on the island The Island upon which the magazine was situated Is in the hands of Mello, and lies just above the city. It Is probable he seized It soon after the navy revolted and erected a magazine there to hold this powder. Two British naval officers, a boatswain, and one seaman were killed. They were on the island shore taking sand for holystoning decks and cleaning up the ships when the explosion occurred, Kills Wife, Cousin and Himself. At Elyrla, Ohio. Charles Manning shot and instantly bis wife and her cousin, Mrs. W. B, White, and then put a bullet in his own brain, dying almost Instantly.

Fog signals were being ex changed regularly with their whistles as tbe steamers felt their way through tho fog banks, Further than this, both captains declined to make any statement as to the course of tbe two ves sels. In this they are sustained by tho imperative rulos of their companies and they have so fur prevented tholr crews from making any statement. It is oxpocted that the Inquest will bring out some of tho circumstances Immediately preceding tho crash. MIDWINTER FAIR. Buildings at San Francisco In a State of Forwardness. Tbe progress thus far made by contractors on soveral of tho main buildings of tho Midwinter Fair at San Francisco Is highly satisfactory. Tho brick work of tho Art Building Is all completed. The Iron roof girders are on the premises, and even If ralu does sot in there will be little or no delay In tho work. Mechanic Arts Build ing may be said to be practically under roof, with only the glass for skylights to bo put in, and this will be done In a few days. Tho roof of Horticultural Building will be of tin, painted to resemble tiles. and, as can readily bo understood. It will not take long to put this In place. Another weok of good weather will put Manufactures Building under cover, so there need be no fear that buildings will not be ready In time. The most notable progress made during the past week has been In connection with Administration Building, which has risen two stories In height during eight daya Various concessionaires are also making rapid progress on their buildings, BULLETS FOR VOTERS. Disgraceful Election Riot at Camden, New Jersey. The election for city and legislative offi cials at Camden, N. J., resulted In a riot, during which a mob ot toughs collided with the police. As a result several per sons, eight of whom are In the hospital, were shot and In two or three instances dangerously wounded Tho trouble broke out in tbe Fifth Ward and later In the Sixth and Ninth Wards. It was precipitated in every instance by the special police at tempting to prevent Deputy Sheriffs of the opposing party from watching the polls and challenging votes. Several deputies ware arrestod by the special polios officers, and during a fight in the Ninth Ward a number of deputies were wounded. At noon appeals were made to Sheriff West to p. ace tbe military in readiness, as a gen eral riot was feared At Sravesend, N. Y.. a suburb ot Brooklyn, there was also a fierce fight at the polls, in which pollwatchers were assaulted and very badly used. SHAKING UP MEXICO. Repeated Earthquakes and Collma Vol eano in Violent Eruption. Severe earthquake shocks have occurred near Guadalajara, Mexico, during the past ten days, and there is much excitement among the people. The Collraa volcano Is in a violent state of eruption, and the peo ple living In the valley at tbe base of the mountain have left their homes In search of a place of safety. At tbe town of America the first severe shock of earthquake did great damage to property and several persons wore wounded by falling houses. Tho first disturbance was felt in the States of Oaxaca, Pueblo, Guerrero, Morelos, and Jalisco. DYNAMITE SCARE IN LONDON. Rpftrt That f. XK, ml. Wn, Ve?nL.Near Houses of Parliament. The London Globe prints a sensational report to the effect that a loaded conical bomb weighing seven pounds was found upon a buttress of Westminster bridge, which Is cln.se to tho H .use. of Parliament The bomb was taken possession of by tbe police and was conveyed, according to the Globe, to Scotland Yard, headquarters of the Metropolitan police. Inquiries made at Scotland Yard confirm the story. The Inspector In charge admitted that the police were in possession of tbe piece of Iron ot conical shape and which Is believed to be a bomb loaded with explosives, ALL WENT ONE WAY, Iowa, Massachusetts, and New York Lost to the Democrats. Latest returns from the elections indicate that Jackson defeats Boles in Iowa, McKlnley defeats Neal in Ohio, Kussell loses to Greenbalge In Massachusetts, and the Republican ticket Is umlformly successful in New York. Chicago elections also return Republican candidates with possibly one exception. South Dakota elects several Republican judgos. A general feature was the lightness of the vote. Four Million In Gold. The New York Subtreasury Monday shipped to the mint at Philadelphia S. 000,000 In gold bullion, which will be coined Into eagles and half-eagles. Tbe shipment was the balance of $10,000,000 ordered sent some time ago.

VICTORY IN OHIO.

A. Severe Rebuke to Enemies of Protection. M'KINLEY'S TRIUMPH. VERDICT GIVEN BY A REPRESENTATIVE JURY. The Voice of Ohio Mar Well II i- Taken as the Voloe of tho People or the Nation A State Election, bnt a National Issne Struggle Between English Free Trade and American Protection Results in a Glorious Victory for Republicans. The victory In Ohio la won! LetRepublicans everywhere rejoice and be glad together! It is long since there was such cause for rejoicing. It Is long since a struggle fraught with such important results was waged in Ohio, or indeed in any State. Probably not since the war, certainly not since the reconstruction era, has any State campaign l een waged on lines of such importance to the national welfare. Nominally a State election, really it was a national issue that was determined by the voters. State issues went to the rear. The struggle was between the Engoveksoe glish policy of free trade and the American system of protection to home industries. Tho American oyotoon- has bocn approved by tile people of Ohio, and their utterance has been sufficiently emphatic to influence the next Congressional elections in alt Northern States, nnd, very possibly, to determine ihe next Presidential election. This year Ohio has occupied the position of the Keystone State. The voice of Ohio well may be taken as the voice of the people of the nation, for there is not an national industry that is not well represented In Ohio. The lake on tbe north and the river on the soutu are full of Ohio's vessels; the iron trade, tbe coal trade, the manufacture of earthenware, the production of salt the growth and manufacture of wood, the building of engines for farms, for ships, lor railways, for use In factories, the manufacture of tin plate, the hundred diversities of the manufacture of wood, all mechanical arts and industries, and all the modes of transporting them from the places of manufacture to tho places of sale, abound in Ohio. Every grade and kind of workman and artisan has spoken in the election of McKinley; and the speech has been unmistakably a demand for protection and a denunciation of free trade. Yet more: there is no species of Northern agriculture that has not found voice in the Ohio election. The wool grower has demanded protection for bis fleeces, the tobacco grower for his plants, the grain grower for his cereals, the stock grower for his herds, no farming industry has failed to make itself heard. The verdict is tbe finding of a thoroughly representative jury. Much is due to the untiring indus try, to the unanswerable logic, to the persuasive elo luence of the great Governor of Ohio, and much, also, Is due to the watchful energy of the State Committee; nor should the equally zealous services of the coun try press and of the county organizations be overlooked. But tho logic of events was tho most potent factor of the campaign. Men remembered that a year ago money was unprecedentedly plenti ful, work unprecedentedly abundant, the comforts of life unprecedentedly equally diffused a year ago everybody except the vicious, tbe shiftless and the inlirm of mind or body was in possession of plenty to eat, plenty to wear, and with some money to spend or to save after all needful comforts and all reasonable luxuries were well supplied. Men feel that it Is not now as it was a year ago. Many were out of work, many were deploring the diminished sales in their stores, many regretted their idle factories factories that they dared not set to work until assured that their product of highly paid labor would not be forced into unchecked competition with tho low-priced labor of Europe; many, also, were absolutely hungry. All these causes and conditions pleaded for a verdict in favor of the prime autiior or tne Mc Kinley tarll law. The verdict Is rendered. 11 win be confirmed by the nation in the next Presidential election. Ohio lias spoken. Her utterance is received with cheers whenever tne nouie sentiments that inspired Jefferson and Washington, as well as Lincoln aud Harrison, when they urged uponumgross the duty of protecting home in dustries, are approved. urtliermore, Ohio has gone Republican, and this is a case in which it truly may ue said, As gops Ohio, so goes the Union. "

THEY DISCOMFITED HIM.

A Masher Who Couldn't Stand a Girl with Sketch H00U aud Pencil. Three decidedly a' tractive girls got on a Sixth avenue elevated train at I Forty-second street, says tho New j York Advertiser, and Immediately a i score of masculine eyes were leveled at them. The girls found seats together and tried to appear unconcerned and quite oblivious to the pronounced advances for a flirtation frum two young swells who sat opposite But all their efforts to appear at ease were unavailing. The young men persisted and the girls blushed and looked uncomfortable. Finally one of the girls opened a small sketch book on her lap, and then raising her eyes she gazed straight at her admirer opposite. He petted his mustache and smiled. She made a few strokes with her pencil in the sketch book, but did not smile. When she raised her eyes again he realized that she was sketcli- ; mg him. lne otner two girls watched the progress of the sketch and giggled. This, with the smiles of ihe other passengers, was more than the subject of the sketch could endure. He crossed and recrossed his legs, pulled his hat down until it touched his nose, and at last rushed desperately into the next car. When he had gone the girl closed the unsoiled pages of the sketch hook and laughingly threw away the bit of pencil, which, when picked up by another passenger,- proved to be quite devoid of lead. SOCIETY IN ALASKA. It's Not a Had Thing to Be a (ilrl In That Cold Land. Visitors to Sitka pronounce it not a bad thing at all to be a girl in Alaska society for girls are a long way above par in the social swim. There are card parties and recepMckinley. tions, there are teas and dinners on the trig little gunboats, with men to preside nt the urn and show how badly von the best of the sex lo tho ! things a woman does so gracefully UK-re are balls m the Uussian castle on the hill, where in the old days the Muscovite Governors brought their high-bred wives and held carni val through the Ion.? Alaskan winters. Like the Japanese, in case of company, everybody borrows of everybody. The Governor's wife is served from her own china at the captain's dinner, and the lieutenant's bride may eat from her own wedding spoons at the paymaster's party, but j there is less strife and envy and all uncharltnblcness than in social cir cles at the great centers of civilization, where everybody is striving to outdo everybody else. St. Louis Globe Democrat. Three Bills. Every person's character must be revealed by the bills lie contracts not bv the bills he pays, for he does not always personally contract the bills he pays, nor pay the bills he con tracts. A glance at any man's act ual and personal bills must surely re veal the sort of man that he is. Let us hope that this is not true of nations, States and cities. If we were as a people to be judged by the comparison of our drink and gambling bills with our bills for schools and churches, how hopeless our national character must appear. It is not probable that the city of New York is in this respect worse than other American cities, but the figures recently published, recording the expenditure of that city in the year 18UU for schools, amusements and drink are alarming as well as instructive. The city's public school bill for the year named, representing the larger ; part of the expenditure for education, was $4,000,000. Its amusement bill --ithe sum which is paid for its theaters, circuses and other public shows was $7,000,000. And its drink bill I was ti0,000,000! It is needless to make any com. ment upon these figures. The proportion holds good, or nearly good, of tlie whole country. What fs wasted upon drink and lut in speculation and other forms of gambling would vastly more than double the salaries of all the teachers aud preachers of the t'uited States. Youth's Companion. He Even stole a Tombstone. Kaunas City has developed a thief who evidently believes that tho world owes him a living and is determined to take it iij tho easiest and most expeditious way. His first thefts were in grocery shops wheneo ho curried off a great quantity of canned goodd and such eatables as were not perishable. Those depredation vei'0 all t racial to 0110 man, though tho police wero not able to capture him. lie next turned his attention to fuel, and whole cartloads of coul and wood wero stolen. The thief was apparently going to house-keoping. and furniture next elaimod his attention. Heavy bedsteads, chairs, an entire chamber set, a cooking stove and an ice chost wero all removed from various citizens' homes. After this, apparently, illness invaded tho thief's household, and a drug shop was brokon into and pillaged, The other night a climax was reached when a line tombstone was carried oil from a cemetery. "They say he simply electrified his hearers at ihe debate tho other night." "Humph! Why shouldn't he? He took the negative, and was very positive, " Buffalo Courier.

This wonderful Nervine Tonic has only recently been introduced into this country by the proprietors and manufacturers of the Great South American Nervine Tonic, and yet its great value as a curative agent has long been known by a few of the most learned physicians, who have not brought its merits and value to the knowledge of the general public. This medicine has completely solved the problem of the cure of indigestion, dyspepsia, and diseases of the general nervous system. It is also of tho greatest value in the cure of all forms of failing health from whatever cause. It performs this by tho great nervine tonic qualities which it possesses, and by its g""t curative powers upon the digestive organs, the stomach, the liver and the bowels. No remedy compares with this wonderfully valuable Nervine Tonic as a builder and strengthener of the life forces of the human "body, and as 11 great renewer of a broken-down constitution. It is also of more real permanent value in the treatment and care of diseases of the lungs than any consumption remedy ever used on this contineut. It is a marvelous cure for nervousness of females of all ages. Ladies who are approaching the critical period known as change in life, should not fail to use this great Nervine Tonic, almost constantly, for the space of two or three years.

As a cure for every class of Nervous Diseases, no remedy has been able to compare with the Nervine Tonic, which in very pleasant and harmless in all its effects upon the youngest child or the oldest and most

delicate individual. Nine-tenths of all the ailments to which the human family is heir are dependent on nervous exhaustion and impaired diges

tion. When there is an insufficient supply of nerve food in the blood, a general state of debility of the brain, spinal marrow, and nerves is the result. Starved nerves, like starved muscles, become strong when the right kind of food is supplied; and a thousand weaknesses and ailments disappear as the nerves recover. As the ncrvons system must supply all
