Four years ago Governor Nicholls appointed his predecessor, Governor McEnery,who {had been ljis competitor for the nomination, a Jiidge of the same court, nnfi now the peculiar picture is presented of two political rivals occupying positions on the Supreme Bench of the State, both of whom have been Governor of the State for two terms and each having at one time defeated the other for re-election.

The most highly cultured women of the country, who have devoted the best years of their lives to preparation for educational "work in the schools and colleges, seldom receive $50 for a week's salary.

The Director of the Centennial Exposition received $10,000 per year and $25,000 for expenses, while the Directors General of the Paris and Vienna Expositions received $50,000 each. These expositions were not more than half as large as the Chicago World's Fair, covered less ground, and a half less money was invested.

Evidently the old idea of col.lcge life as a time of discipline and plain living has grown verv dim at Harvard. But, really, should a university spend money in building luxurious apartment houses for its extremely wealthy studentsits leisure class, so to say—who are abundantly ably to look out for tliern selves? In our humble opinion, it would be vastly better, would do ^vastly more good to the cause of .sound education, if the Harvard authorities, instead of putting their $150,000 into a great building where $350 to $500 yearly must be charged as rental for the suites, should use the money to build two or three modest but comfortable dormitories where students of restricted incomes could get a pleasant room

CHARGED WITH MURDER.

Seven of the Homestead Strikers Who Participated in thi Riot in the Toils.

Secretary Lovojoy Goes Before a Magistrate and Charges the Leaders With the Death of Two Men—Inter

Excitement Over the News Retaliation Proposed.

The Homestead situation, on the ISth was unchanged. The bitterness between strikers and troons is growing. Another regiment and much ammunition have been brought across the river from Pittsburg. Few if any workmen are in the mills. The rumor that laborers were to be imported from Europe created excitement and a committee has gone East to prevent their landing, beinc in violation of the contract labor law, should the rumor prove true. It is evident the company must get more men than it is believ* ed to have if it would resume work. In the afternoon information was made before Alderman McMasters for murder against Hugh O'Donnell, John McLuckie Syl Critichlow, Anthony Flaherty, Samuel Berkel, James Flannagan and Hugh Rose. These men are all leaders of the strike at Homestead and they are charged with tho murder of T. J. Conners andSilas Wayne, two of the Pinkerton men killed in the riots. Warrants have been issued, and the men wili be arrested.

A special from Pittsburg published on the 19th, says: John McLuckie, Burgess, of Homestead, is sleeping to-night on a cot in one of the cells in the county jail. Telegrams are being sent to a dozen points between.here and NewYork seeking the aid of police authorities for the arrest of Hugh O'Donnell, the leader of the strikers, and warrants are in the hands of the officers of the law for several other prominent participants in the trouble at Homestead, and who are but the vanguard of a small army of strikers, that it is proposed to bring be fore the bar of the law. The intention of the Carnegie company to institute criminal proceeding against tho Homestead leaders in the event of the county authorities failing to take cognizance of the recent riot was carried into effect much quicker than had been anticipated, or than the authorities at the executive offices, who had feared the effect of the premature publication of their intentions, were willing to admit.

It was shortly before noon when Secretary Lovejoy of the Carnegie Company sauntered leisurely into the office of A1 derman McMasters at Diamond and Grant streets. He was unaccompanied and by a coincidesce, nobody but the Alderman was in the oflice at the time, tho constables attached to the place being behind closed doors of the ante-room. Secretary Lovejoy stated that he desired to lay information against a number of men charging the crime of murder, and the Alderman proceeded to draw up the papers. When the papers had been completed Secretary Lovejoy listened to the reading of the oath, kissed the Bible,appended his signature to the information, buttoned his sack coat, shook hands with the justice and sauntered out of the office as leisurely and to all outward appearance as free from care and anxiety as he had entered a half hour before. No time was lost by Justice McMasters in making out the fourteen warrants and shortly before 2 o'clock they were intrusted to the constables.

On the arrival of the constables at Homestead they made known their business to Gen. Snowden, who referred them to Colonel Green, in command of the provost guard. The latter detailed two companies of soldiers to accompany the constables, and the latter visited the houses of all the men wanted, but without result. Not one of them was at home, and most of the residences were locked in darkness When the officers started to this city at dusk they were surprised to find that Burfess McLuckie had gotten out of town while they were searching fui' him, and Dad already surrendered himself }o the alderman. Ho was in ilie office in company with attorney Brennen, of tho Amalgamated Associa.ion, and several friends. The warrant rvas formally served upon him, and to the magistrate he said that he had already sent word to the other men who were wanted to come iuto town in the morning and surrender. To those around him McLuckie said that ho and O'Donnell were not leaders but among the smallest of the strikers, and as for himself he did not know if he was any longer a member of the association lie went on to stay: "I might as well come out with it and say that information will be laid against Frick, Carnegie and Potter. Whether we will bring any one else into it I cannot say at present. I tell you we will make this man Frick come down on his knees so hard that the sound will be heard in the farthest corner of civilization." "Yes," put in one of those present, "and once tho warrants issued wo will have Carnegie «xtradi ted in short order."

Alderman McMastels waited in his office until 8 o'clock, and then, none of the other accused men putting in an appearance, he committed the Burgess to the county jail without bail. In custody of constable Price and accompanied by Jere Dougherty, an official of the Amalgamated Association, and Thomas Coogan aud George Clark, mill men, he walked to the county jail. On the outside he shook hands with his friends and then passed through tho iron gate. After being searched by Chief Warden McAleso, who found in his pockets nothing more dangerous than the key to the Homestead lock-up,he was taken to a cell of the first tier and iocked up. llalf an hour later he was fast asleep.

Secretary Lovo joy, of the Carnegie company, was in good spirits over the success of his maneuver, and in an interview explained at length tho circumstances under which tho step had been taken. He said: "These informations were entered in my capacity as a private citizen, and not a9 secretary of the Carnegie Steel Company. There are good cases against these men and lroa now on from ten to fifteen infor-

^S2I S£:

mations will be made each day It Is my intention to make them as fast as the authorities can handle them. We have evidence against one thousand' men, and we propose to push these cases. The laws of Pennsylvania are very broad on this subject, and the persons who were on the premises at the time of the shooting are liable not only as accessories, but as principals. Our purpose in making these arrests at this time is not to break the strike by taking away the leaders, nor is it to force the men to go back to work under threat of arrest. This thing is not a bluff. We mean to go to the end. The evidence in our hands will be placed in the hands of the district attorney for his use. Should we come across the case of a man who was not engaged in the shooting and who had no hand in mischief whatever we might make no information provided the man showed his repentance for the riot and come to us for his old position. We expect to bring non-union men into the mills this week. The nonunion men will be in sufficient numbers to lill the places of the men who were engaged in this thing and whom we will not take back. It Avas my design that the name of Hugh O'Donnell was placed first in one information and second in the other. We regard him as the leader of the strike. He was president of the advisory committee. As to our company we have nothing to say further than that the strongest defense possible will be made."

Members of the advisory covimittee say that warrants will be applied for against Frick, Carnegie and Potter, They will be charged with "murder and treason." At the meeting a telegram from Pittsburg was read announcing that Burgess McLuckie, of Homestead, had gone to the sheriff's office and surrendered. The legal adviser of the committee, Mr, W. J. Breu nan, could not be reached, but the chairman was instructed to see him and ascertain whether Mr. Andrew Carnegie, Chair man H. C. Frick, the Pinkerton brothers and Messrs. Lovejoy, Potter, Carey ana Dowey could not be indicted for murder and treason in bringing an armed body ol men into the State who wrought the deatL of several people in Homestead. Mr. Hugh Ross, one of the men who is under indictment for the affray with the Pinkertons, said that he was advised that Carnegk would bo extradited on the charge. The meeting then adjourned.

Homestead is filled with detectives in the employ of the Carnegie company, Their mission seems to be to watch tht movements of the leaders and to bring ar infiuence to bear jon the men composing the rank and file of thelocked-out laborers and mechanics. As to the latter object il can be safely said they are not succeeding to any noticeable degree. The leaden say they do not care how many detective: the company may employ to shadow them. The town is also filling up with non-union workmon. To deny this would be to deny the truth. Every train brings unprinci paled men into the place. The majority come for no other purpose than to "work" strikers for a five or ten-dollar bill and free tickets to Eastern cities. Homestead is certainly becoming the Mecca for tramps, who represent themselves as nolP union workmen, but are willing to get out of town again if tho strikers will give them a little cash and free railroad tickets but there is another class drifting in here. They are being sent in by the Carnsgie company. Two strangers caught up with on Eighth avenuo Monday morning admitted that they had signed agreements to go to work in the mill. They left town in the afternoon, A gentleman who arrived Monday from Pittsburg said: "The train I came up on brought a lot of nonunion men to Homestead. They were in charge of a Carnegie agent, who supplied them with tickets. Just before reaching Homestead this agent told the men tc separate just as soon as they left the train but to meet in the afternoon at a place agreed upon. In the party were several colored men."

The Food of the Coming Man. Forum,

Prof. W. O. Atwater, the chemist, points out the curious fact that, ii: the extraordinary applications oi science to practical problems in recent j^ears, one of the most important fundamental problems has been strangelv overlooked, viz., the scientific study of food. The coming man •will avoid four mistakes that are now largely made: (1) He will not buy as expensive kinds of food as are now generally louglit, because some ol the least expensive foods are the most nutritive and palatable (2) with further scientific information the coining man will value foods in proportion to their nutritive qaulitics (3) it' goods are bought and eaten with reference to their nutritive qualities, and not to mere fashion or habit, it would require a much less quantity to keep a man in his best working condition than is now generally consumed (4) there will be a involution wrought in the present way of cooking, which is both wasteful and primitive and far behind our advancement in almost every art.

Prof. Atwater gives the results ol practical studies in diets made to show these conclusions. And he asks: "Has man yet reached his highest development? The poorer classes of people —and few of us realize how numerous they are—the world over are scantily nourished. The majority of mankind live on a nutritive plane far below that with which we are familiar. We may hope for the best culture, not of the intellectual powers but of tho higher Christian graces in the minds and hearts of men, in. proportion as tho care of their bodies is provided for. Happily with the advance of knowledge comes the improvement of material conditions, May we not hope that the future development of our race will bring that provision for physical wantsi which is requisite for the best welfare of mind and soul?"

TORNADO IN OHIO.

Springfield is "Visited, by Two Funnel-Shaped Clouds.

Thirty Dwellings^ Demolished and Over One Hundred Partially Ruined.

The most destructive tornado which ever visited that portion of Ohio struck the southeastern part of Springfield—the resident portion—Wednesday morning at 11 o'clock, and demolished about thirty residences and partially ruined over a hundred more. But two persons are possibly fatally injured,but the loss in property is large, a conservative estimate placing it at between 8150,0C0 and $200,000.

The path of the tornado was fully a mile long from west to east, and three blocks wide. It first struck tho fair grounds in the eastern part of tho city, hurled itself along in a southeasterly direction, taking a house here and theie until it struck the corner of South Limestone street and Euclid avenue, threequarters of a mile away, where the cloud came to the ground and literally demolished an entire block of residences. It then lifted and passed over the city in a northeasterly direction, hurling down a house here and there.

In the block immediately east of South Limstone street scarcely half a dozen houses are left standing. All is a mass of debris, lumber, trees and furniture piled up for a square in confusion. Terrified spectators who witnessed the approach of the tornado state that it was preceded for about five minutes with a veritable cloudburst of water, followed by continuous flashes of lightning and claps of thunder. Two clouds, both funnel shaped—one from the west and one from the southwestthen came clashing together directly over the fair grounds and began their work of destruction. The clouds whirled about, felling trees and buildings, in two separate paths, five hundred feet apart and about a hundred feet wide, leaving the center untouched.

The entire police force was ordered to the scene and tho Mayor also ordered out the Champion City Guards and Battery E to preserve order and prevent vandalism. Thirty families have lost their all, John Leach and his family of five children living in the center of the destroyed district had a narrow escape. They were at dinner when the tornado came. It lifted tho house directly above tho terrified family's head, and crashed it down amass of heaping ruins, None of the family was fatally injured,

PEACE REIGNS,

It Is Believed tlie Trouble at Pittsburg Is Settled. Unless —~—.

A special from Homestead, Pa., on the 15 th, says: Homestead citizens all area unit to-day in one sentiment—they want no more vioence, and declare that under no circumstances, save a re-introduction of Pinkerton ism, will they resort to arms. This is a wonderful change in a week, aud whether or not the presence of the militia has to do with this pacific attitude, the men bolieve themselves thoroughly in earnest as they reiterate the statement, and declare that the presence of non-union men would not provoke them to a breach of the peace, although they may use all moral suasion possible to induce such parsons to leave town. As an evidence of this sentiment the telegram of Mr. Hugh O'Donnell to Attorney General Hensel is striking. He offers to return tho Winchesters to tho proper persons. In this Mr. O'Donnell merely demonstrates tho general desire of the mill workers to conduct the wage-con-flict on lines other than those which led so many possessors of the captured guns to say last week, with signiticance, "to the victors belong the spoils

Every member of the old advisory board will to-day repeat that he is perfectly willing that the Sheriff should send deputies into the mill, or that he assume direction gf the Carnegie watchman, and that the locked-out meii will not attempt to pass the gates under nearly any provocation. The men, of course, are as watchful as they ever were, and the constantly Hying rumors of non-union men coming serve to uourish their vigilance. Yet is safe to say that no harm would bo done them Last evening a man came into town and said ho was going to work. The men argued with him for two hours, and finally he returned to Pittsburg. In all tho time, however, not one personal threat was made against him.

The men in the other Carnegia mills went out on a, strike Thursday, because the company refused another conference with the Homesteaders. All of the mills are now therefore closed. Several thousand men went out. A special on the lGth referring to this strike says:

The men at tho Union mills of the Carnegie Steel Company, at Twenty-eighth and Thirty-third streets, haye locked themselves out and thoy will have to wait till the company unlocks tho gates before they go back. This is tho conclusion of the company as expressed by Mr. Lovojoy why this morning said 'If these men who quit yesterday think thoy can strike and go in and out of our propei'ty and go to work when they please aud quit when they please, they are very much mistakenThey will not be permitted to go back until the company says so, nor will they go back under the same twins and considerations. They broke the contract they had with ns, and a new one will have to be mado before they can work for us. This is their own doing, and having broken tho contrast, we propose to say when and nndor what terms they shall return."

The company hopes to start the mills toon with non-union men. A fire was started in the hearths at the Jarnegie mills Friday, and the sight of ihe steam very nearly precipated a conflict between the troops and the men. As soon as the steam rose a large body of strikers, who were near the railroad front ef the mills, made a hasty movement towards the gate, and the provost patrol hurrtedly got between them aud the main •ntrance. The bayonets were brought to a charge, and the men were halted. It wm probably curiosity rather than any works. which' madt

J- Lv

the men come forward, hut the abrupt manner in which they were turned back caused some feeling, and was taken by many as an indication that the troops are ready to fight, a fact which may have heretofore been disbelieved, on account oi the sympathy for the men expressed by the military.

Since the soldiers have been confined in the camp there has been a very marked change in tho feeling between the town and the hill, the sentiment on both sides being decidedly more unfriendly than it was at first. General Snowden comes in for the most criticism by the strikers, and they are not particularly sparing in their remarks. In this connection is the boycott which the servant girls at the clubhouse have put on General Snowden and the officers of the militia. The clubhouse, also called tho Frick Hotel, is just opposite the main gate of the mill property, and contains the best restaurant in Homestead. It has been doing a land office business since the militia arrived, but Friday morning the cooks and the servant girls declined to minister to the wants of the military and the camp commissary had to bo called on to provide for the needs of the headquarters. The strike at the Frick Hotel indicates the general feeling of the people toward the militia. Although General Snowden was but part of the grievance ol the young women, the man against whom the boycott of the girls was chiefly directed was Manager Potter, of the mills, who has again taken up his permanent resi dence in Homestead. A new force of waiters was speedily found and at a rather late dinner everybody coming to the hotel, including the distinguished commander of the forces, was seryed.

DESTRUCTIVE VOLCANO.

The Island of Sangier, One of the Philippines, Said to Have Disappeared.

Twelve Thousand Persons Supposed to Have Met Death in the Sea or Perished iu the Burning Lara.

A dispatch from Sidney, N. i3. W,. Sunday, says: Rumors have reached here from Timor that there has been a volcanic eruption on the island of Sangior, one of the Philippine group, and that moat of the inhabitants have been killed. A natiye from the Talatz islands, who landed at Selangen four weeks ago, brought a remarkable story to the effect that several other natives had just returned from a voyage near Sangier. They had intended to land on the island, but were prevented by the sight of mountains belching forth smoke and fire. Thoy reported that "the whole island was on fire." The water along the coast w^s full, they said, of half burned wreckage, pieces of houses and charred bodies, Tho whole population, estimated at about twelvo thousand, seemed to have been swept into the sea or burned, as not a living soul was to be seen. Streams of lava were still flowing towards the shore, showing that the activity of the volcano had not abated.

The steamship Catharun, from China to Sydney, brought a similar story into port with her Saturday. Near Sangier, her captain said, sho passed through miles of debris, dissimilar from anything he had before seen at sea. Poles and sides of huts* most of them charred and broken, were mingled with such utensils as the natives of tho Philippine islands use in cooking. Articles of head drfss in the wreckage wero identified by a sailor who had lived in the Philippines as peculiar to the natives of Sangier, and the near-by islands of tho Philippine group. The ship was passing through the wreckage from 10 a., m, to 1:30 p.m.

KILLED-

The Free Silver Bill Is Laid Quietly to Rest.

Sent to the Bottom of the Calendar by a Vote of 154 to 136—The Story Briefly Told.

Tho free coinage bill was killed in the nouso Wednesday by a vote of: Ayes, 130 nays, 154, on a motion to take it up and give it preference. Mr. Reed led tho opposition to tho bill, and Mr. Bland advocated its passage.

An analysis of the vote on the silver resolution shows that the affirmative vote was cast by 118 Democrats, including the Speaker, ten Alliance men and eight Republicans. The Republicans wero Bowers, Cheatham, Clark of Wyoming, John son, Jolley, Post, Sweet and Townsend. The negative vote was cast by ninety-four Democrats and sixty Republicans. Messrs. Bretz, Brookshire, Brown, Cooper, Holman, Johnson, Martin, Parrett, Patton and Shively, of Indiana, voted with the silverites, while Waugli and McClellan voted against the resolution. Bynum was at Pittsburg, and (was paired with Wilson of Kentucky. The poll made by Mr. Raynor and other anti-silver men just before the fight began in the House showed tho following result: Number of members. 332: number of paired or dead, 317 leaving 301. Number of anti-silver Democrats, 98 number of anti-silver Republicans, 63, making tho total anti-silver vote 161, with a possibility of but 140 silver votes, ac cording to thi3 calculation.

RIOTING IN SPAIN. %,

A special from Madriu, July 14, says: Thero is widespread rioting in Spain against the Octrio duties. At Seiva, the province of Terragona, the Octrio offices wore burned by a mob. The collector and the employes of the offices, when they rushed from the burning building, were stoned and several of them were badly injured. The rioters then captured the town hall. The mayor fled, but was wounded by the rioters. The mob forced open tho safes and destroyed many documents. The rioters showed an inclination to resist the soldiers, but tho latter fired upon them, killing seyera. and wounding many others.

It is claimed that the Patrons of Industry and other industrial organizations in Porter county formerly had a tnembership of seven hundred, but that recently disin* tegrfttloa let int due to political agitation.
