ROSE IN REBELLION.

Riot in the Illinois State Home Ftir .Juvenile Fenmlt

1

Offenders.

CHICAGO, March 11.—A riot broke loose in the Illinois state home for juvenile female offenders at .'i 114 Indiana avenue last night. Thirty-four girls, ranging in years from 10 to 18, rose in rebellion against tlie matron, Mrs. A. M. Dayton. Mrs. Dayton and her assistants were powerless to control their charges and were assaulted atul compelled to shut themselves in rooms to escape their almost frenzied assailants, while the girls went through the house breaking furniture and windows and smashing crockery and everything they could lay their hands on.

The police were summoned and restored order, which was no easy matter, as the ringleaders fought desperately. Four of the girls, supposed to be ringleader- were arrested.

The trouble arose because of the punishment given by Matron Dayton to Mamie Davi. If) years old. who is said by the attendants at the home to be among the inmates most hard to manage. .A'-cording to the girls, however, the punishment meted out to the Davis girl served only a pretext for an uprising which lia-l been gathering for some time, and was due to a great dissatisfaction among the girls over their treatment i)i general, and particularly because of a system of punishments, which included imprisonment in a dark room 10 by r.2 Jet in the culprit being chained to the .floor ivli a heavy chain, and a-lso a system of dieting, in which the oll'ender was not allowed meat and was half starved for a length of tim\ determined by the nature of the offense charged against her.

WERE NOT TAKEN ALIVE.

Two llorKethieves Perish in a Hurtling IJuildiny K-ither Than Surrender. LITTLE liocK, March 11.—A special

from Enterprise. I. T., says that a posse in pursuit of two men, who had stolen 30 horses in the Choctaw nation, followed the thieves for three days, finally surrounding them 10 miles east of that place. The thieves refused to surrender and kept up firing, having dismounted from their horses und taken to the •woods.

The posse pressed them closely and the tight was kept up for two or three hours, both pursued and pursuers firing as rapidly as they could load their revolvers. One of the posse, in trying to head oil' the thieves, received a bullet in his arm, shattering it, causing him to fall from his horse. Finally the entire party massed and charged the two criminals, forcing them to take refuge just at the edge of the woods, in a cabin. Here the thieves barricaded themselves and defiantly proclaimed that they would not be taken alive.

After repeated efforts to induce them to give up, the house was sec on lire. Still the men inside refused to come out, although the roof was a mass of flames. They still threatened death to any of the posse who ventured near. At last the frame of the building fell in, burying the desperadoes in the ruins, and they weiv roasted to death in the burning building.

HAZLE SLOPE MINE FIRE.

It Is Still Kagin ^, AVitli l)iit Little Hope. of. Subduing II.

^-HAZLKTON, Pa., March 11.—The worst mine lire in the anthracite region is now ras/nig MI ihe Ha/le slope of the Lehnrh Valley Coal company. When the lire broke out six weeks aw it was at first thought to he of little consequence. The si one was closed shortly afterward. Since then hundreds of thousands of dollars have been spent eflorts to suitdue the flames. The chances ot getting the lire out the next six weeks are dubious, and the probable loss of the company :n not be estimated. The limit' was the deepest operates by the company, and was one oft he most valuable, employing some 1,100 men.

The destrr.ci ion of this great colliery is not alone threatened now, but those adjoining it are imperilled. The subtorraneaii openings connect the Ha de mines with three other valuable coal properties, and the ell cots of tin* fire are now being felt, there. At the Laurel Hill oolhery the males have already been hoisted from the mines, owing io the high water and to keep that place from drowning out every effort is now being exerted. To remove the water alone from the mine will cost a snug fortune, and it is estimated that before the outbreak shall have been overcome $1,000,000 will have to be expended.

T»ejid .Nv*jro Found in tlu: Canal. NIAOAKA FALLS. March II. The

badly decomposed body ol an old negro, disappearance has for some time been a mystery, was yesterdav afternoon found in the hydraulic, canal which runs through the city and which furnishes the larger part of the city's water supply. The drowmngis believed to have been purely accidental. A great number of cases of typhoid fever ha v. developed at Niagara Falls of late, and the discovery of this body will probably lead to a, thorough examination anil cleaning out of the --anal.

Our Vessel Not Fired On.

MANAOUA, March 11.—Officials of the. British legation state there is absolutely no touth in..t,ho reports of the firing oil an American vessel by a British ship. Parties arriving from the Mosquito country say the country is quiet and more prosperous than for several years. A suceessiul attempt was made to land a lot of arms at Monkey Point, but they were seized by troops sent for the purpose under orders of General Cabezas.

"Healer"' Haines ConlU "1 (live. HOIK!— Plead (mltv to ist Charsje—F F'me ami Costs in IJotli discs and Skipped.

Gardner Haines, the Christian Science "Healer," has gone. On Saturday Mayor Duncan found him guilty of practicing medicine without a license and fixed his fine at $10, together wih the costs Haines, through his attorney, immediately gave notice that he would appeal the case to the circuit court, and was going to give bond in the sum of $300, but somehow his "faith"-ful followers concluded that they had enough of him, ai refused to go on his bond. Finding that he could not give the required bond, and that his chances to go to jail were extremely good, he sent for his wife, and together they paid the fine and costs iu the case, and also plead guilty and paid the fine in the case pending—for failing to report a death return. The amount in both casea was $41. He and his wife left on the first train for Indianapolis, aud Greenfield is rid of a man who has ileeced her citizens out of nearly $2,000. This man Haines, we understand, has been in similar cases, but has always come out first best. He severely criticised friends f'v failing to stand by him, saying that they had agreed to defray all t.be expenses in the trial. Be that as it may, it has been demonstrated that Haines was a "slick citizen,1' and the onlyobject he had in view was to get as much money out of our people as possible, and he has done well. His profits are estimated all the way from $1,000 to $2,500, and it is fair to presume that he got fully $2,000 during his six mouths' stay in our city. The Board of Health are to be congratulated on the firm stand they took against this quack, not on account of any personal feeling, but for the good of our citizens generally. Haines will probably never show his face in Greenfield again. aud the majority ot the people hope he never Will.

Tlie JS1 lie (ioo.se Saloon Completely EJe-

molislu'd.

Saturday night sometime after midnight, probably, some party or p'.irties unknown entered the Blue Goose saloon in the glass works addition and completely demolished it. The beer and whisky was all poured out, bottles and glasses broken, and the counter up.^et and the furniture generally demolished and scattered. All the windows ot the saloon were broken and one of the demolishers at least got a badly cut hand as there was blood on the window sill. After the smasliup the gas in the stove was lighted and then turned on full force with the evident intention of the house being burned later. Tlie saloon has been run by Dan Hays under a Government license and as he was not stopped by law it is thought some other parties simply concluded to take the law into their OAU hands.

Old gas wells made new is something that is claimed for the Decker patent drain pipe at Anderson. Old Anderson Chief, one of the originally good wells there was made a line well again by putting in two tubes and then by forcing gas in from another well, the water was started out through one tube and kept going like a syphon until the well was as dry as a bone, and now its own gas can keep it so. Hancock county has some wells that can be restored.

WASHINGTON, March 11. United States Consul Brulii, at Catania. Italy, has discovered a fine market for ready built American frame houses of from two to live rooms, well braced, of low price. The recent and frequent earthquakes in Sicily and Catalonia- have destroyed or damaged many buildings poorly braced to begin with, and after making inquiries to consul is convinced that the people would readily adopt the American structures as better calculated to resist shock.

A member of the royal earthquake commission is interested himself in the subject, and the consul is anxious to obtain illustrated catalogues from the American manufacturers to lay before the commission.

FNOIANA LEGISLATURE.

About- 1,000 Rills In trod need of Which 100 Hav« IJeeonie LaiiK.

INDIANAPOLIS, March 11.—The Indian a legislature will adjourn tonight at 12 o'clock. The session cost the state $100,0pA. but the general appropriation bills shows a reduction of over $600,000 from two years ago. There are now in the governor's hands about (50 bills, among them being the Nicholson temperance bill and the fee and salary bill, which provides for reductions in county officers' salaries. The Moore temperance bill, a drastic measure, has already been signed

Among the more important bills that have become laws are the Roby bill, to prevent wilder racing, the constitution-, ality of which is questioned: the congressional and legislative apportionment.' bills the bill taking the appointing.: power away 1'r.nu the governor regarding state prisons, and the bill providing for partisan control of state institutions.

The bill taking the power to appoint police commissioners away from the governor and vesting it in the mayors of cities was vetoed and failed to pu^s over tlie veto. The bill was drawn, i1: the iutetvs of tlie Republican parry.--•which controls the majority of municipalities and is therefore a victory for the governor, who is a Democrat.

A bill was also passed giving councils the power ro gerrymander cities every two years, which is distinctly a partisan measure.

Provision has been made, for a fractional mill tax for educational institutions and the general tax levy has been reduced.

The militia bill, which is now a law, gives the governor almost absolute power in times of public disorder, and. gives to a militiaman, who shoots down a man wh*ie on duty, a trial by court martial. .A'together about 1,000 bills were introduced, of which 100 have become laws.

The charge has been freely made that throughout the session much money has been spent to kill off legislation affecting corporations. Many leading members of the legislature who were inter-• viewed express dissatisfaction with the work accomplished.

IMPERSONATED AN OFFICER.

DENVER, March 11.—The arrest of C. I B. Simmonds, alias C. B. Sawyer, at Pueblo, on the charge of impersonating an officer of the government, is the result of a bitter contest over the location of the new federal building in that city,

About two years ago the government decided upon what was known as tho Baxter site. Advocates of other locatious have never relaxed their efforts to persuade the government to choose another site instead.

IS'OW that work will soon be started, anything tiiat is to be accomplished, must be done quickly and a fund, ir i.s stated, has been started to push thy ni'itter tli.''-ad. [t is also said that the anfi-Baxters have gone so far us roenlist the services of ex-Governor Foraker and Charles Foster of Ohio, two prominent lawyers and politicians, in their cause. !i Simciond-', now under arrest, it is said, had letterheads prtnled similar to those used bv Collector ot Customs Spencer. He then, it is claimed, waned, on contractors and builders in Pueblo, representing himself lo be a special agent oi thelTmted States treasnrv department. The matter was reported i.o J.

The disposition, of troops made by Colonel Coit was approved as proper and accordance with military science, but severe criticism is passed upon the fact that the arms and accoutrements were left stacked for several hours, unguarded and in easy reach of tho mob. Governor McKinicv, in approving the linding of the court, pays the highest compliment to the military judgment, bravery and prudence of Colonel Coit and his soldiers shown at the \\ashingtoil Court House riots.
