Ind. TWELVE PAGES. WEDNESDAY, APRIL 5, 1893. NOTICE OF REMOVAL. On or about May 1 The Sentinel will remove to new quarters at 23 North I Hi oois-sr., where it will have one of the most complete, convenient and handsomely quipped newspaper offices in the country. This location will be of easy access to the business heart of the city and will be a wleome charge to Tns Sentinel's patroni. Anderson suffered a severe blow in the turning of the Doxey opera house. But Anderson will quickly recover. That thriving city doesn't know what discouragement means. The lecis'atur of Minnesota is considering? a bill requiring Chinaman to wear their shirt-tails inside their troupers. Another opportunity lost by our late ladented assembly. Tue lynchers who recently burned a negro to death at Faris, Tex., are already harinq a chance to view the effects of their example. A man has been murdered in that vicinity in the most horrible manner, having been covered with alcohol end let on fire. 2so doubt the Parin horror furnished the suggestion. It may be Bet down S3 axiomatic that defiance of law breeds defiance of law. Judge Lynch'a Crimea of commission are but a email portion of those for which he is directly responsible. Tue slave auction block still linaers and dot altogether south of Waso.n and Dixon's line. Under some sort of a vagrant law a colored man was sold in Ohio recently. True, the sale was made for a limited time only, and the law applies to black and white vagrants alike. In Missouri, under a similar lair, a young negro was eold for $19 for six months. In both these states, for all intents and purposes, these men are slaves until the time for which their services were sold expires. There may be some excuse for it, but it smacks too much of the old slave regime. TnE appointment of ex-Senator Bayard as ambassador to the court of St. Jau.es is bot unexpected. But it will prove none the less agreeable to the country et large and especially to the democrats. Mr. Bayard ia one of the men whom the party ever delights to honor. hi and braiay, Le ha.- b eec one of its most trusted leaders for a third of a century. In the matter of peculiar fitness no better selection could have been made. Mr. Bayaiid's long connection with alTaira of state and his intimate relations as secretary of prate during l'residant ei.am' former terra ith all the diploma:h: questions at issua between this .rovfcniDacntani that cf Groat Tintain have adapted l.iin, batter than any other living mac, fur the high post to which he has Len nominated. The choice is in evury way a rncsi happy end. Skcp.ktaky Morton of the department of agriculture has made an exce'lent begininp. He did not, as haB been reported, remove Statistician 1i..e, but he accepted that gentleman's resignation very promptly when it was voluntarily tendered. Mr. Donos has been lor years abusing his official position by circulating high tariff literature among toe farmers in the puise cf official reports. It is high time that he stepped down and out. Ilia successor, Judge K'jbinox of Michigan, "Is a statistician rather than a vote criver," Secretary Morton eaid to the Washington correspondent of the 'ew York iWsthe other day, and added: "The fact that he will be connected with a democratic administration will mean that the farmers of the country wil not be famished with fallacious ideas. This department will not, while I am at its head, tale any part in promoting any political theories." The last cf the full generals of the south side of the civil war pasted away la.-it week in the person of Gen. Kirsy fcf.MiTH. Quite all of the newspapers on both sides of the lice so far as they have parsed under our observation spoke in complimentary terms of Gen. Smith's courage, gallantry and of Lis military equipment generally. The Jew York IJrnl'l in this connection calls to mind a romance of his eventful career. The wound that he received at the first Bull Run battle cave him his wife. When the federal and confederate forces joined issues thit day Gen. Smith was fully thirty miles away. The Herald continues: On receipt of the sews he covered the distance with his troops by a forced march and arrived just in time to be of signal service to tLe southern troops. While making a charge at the head of his force be was so severely wounded that little tope was entertained of his recovery, lie was carried, however, to the house of CoL McDamii, where he received the attention whieh his desperate case required. It Is more than probable that he would have euceumbed but for the careful nursing of tLe colonel's daughter, the watched him night and day and her efforts were repaid at last by the patient's full recovery. Oi course, there could be but one denoument to thw little drama. The soldier and his nnrae fell in love with each other, lie signed a marriage certificate and received hi comrnis.-äoa as a major general on the same day. and as the fury tales g-, "the couple lived .t.appiiy forever alter." Aa the editor of the Herald says, "there were score of sueh romsaees during the war and they are all interesting. The Columbia City Post very properly assure the republicans that they are altogether "too previous" in assuming1 that they will carry Indiaaa in 1F01, because , the work of the last legislature was not altogether satisfactory and adds: MIlecauae a few men did net do what the party expected them to do is not reason sufficient to drive a man fromdemocratio principles. Much more will depend on the administration and the acts of the congress of the United States than upon the late legislature or the distribution of the offices. If some good legislation is passed by congress Indiana will be as solidly

democratic next year as ehe was in 1S02." This is gospel truth. The vast majority cf the democrats of Indiana are democrats from principle and they will not sacrifice principle because of pique or disappointment. Republican principles rather than republican candidates are what they oppose. They will turn down those unfaithful aerrants who have not followed democratio doctrines, but they will not turn over the Etat to bo governed oa republican lines.

Suggestive Observations. Mr. Harrison has been interviewed;! not at lengtn. out crieuy. ine laconic character of Mr. Harrison's observations leaves one somewhat in doabt as to whether he has nothing to ear, or has learned the art of condensing- mountains of thought into a few words. His interview risea above the horizon like the little cloud no larger than a man's hand, and there ia in it an ominous suggestion that it is ready to swoop down on an unsuspecting country like a Kansas cvclone and Llow the teeth out of your mouth while you ask what is the matter. It is an iot-rview t once teeming with innocence and dark design. It ioothes and terrifies. Posgibly it ia the wooden horse of Troy. Ponsibly it is tho pacific bobby-horse that has been ridden through the later years of republicanism. Possibly it is no horse at all, but only a nightmare, in which the expresident views once more the field of the last campaign and imagines that he is the central figura in a great national struggle. Poseibly it is a saw-horse on which Mr. H. is ostentatiously sawing wood. Possibly it is a clothes-horse on which he means to hang the bloody shirt and grandfather's hat during the next four jears. Pofsibly it is a horse on us. The interview with Mr. Harrison was secured by the St. Louis Po4-Dispatch, which thereby adds to the great load of ob igation that the world is under to its management. It consiots of two questions and two answers in the words and ggures iollowing, to-wit: It was suggested bv the interviewer that the ex-president m;ght wish to givo his views as to any of the causes which contributed to reuublican defeat last November. ".No, nothina," he answered, a trifle more emphatic, "not now. No, not at all. I üave nothing to say about that." "As to the future of the republican oarty, what are your hopes?" was asked. "Keep up the battle; fight on That's my plan, Every one who knows anything about me knows I believe in keeping upa fight when it is begun. That ia all we have to do. Keep up the battle." tVe did not anticipate that Mr. Harrison would have much to say as to the causes of the late tidal wave, but note the ominous "not noc!" What grim portent of the future is this! Not now! But later on, what? What mysteries will be levealsd when tho sesie 1 mouth of the present hall be opened? What republican skulkers wiil be put under tho glare of the calcium light? Will it be Clarkm)", or iKiM F.Y, or Woi.cott, or Iv.alls, or Blaise, or another? Evidently he does not mean to attribute the defeat to the avowed principlos of tho party, for he says he means to go on with the tight, and yet in what a sphinx-like way he gives the intimation. "Keep up the battle!" What battle? The battle for a force bill ? The battle for a capitalists' taritf ? Töe battle for the epoiib? The battle for more federal judges? The battle for greater centralization of power? The ''battle for the love I have to see the white man fall?" The battle for the sake cf a bat tie? Possibly Mr. Harrison's principle is like that of the man who wanted to buy a pair cf boots. "How much are they," ho asked. "Seven dollars." "Eleven ! I'll give you nine." "I didn't eay eleven. I sail eeven." "Oh. seven! I'll give you five." His mission may be to light the democratic party, under any and ad circumstances. Let it bo right or wron, he is against it. It may advocate what ho believes in. No matter ; lie is not to beßwerved by personal considerations. lie may be soundly thrashed. Never mind; the bat tle ia begun and must not be abandoned. This is what gives men the reputation of bein decided. Decision of character is a great advantage. You never have to worry about the ruht and wrong of thing. You are not expected to learn anything from experience. Just go ahead in the frame old rut. Without any breach of confidence we cana.-wure Mr. Harrison that he will find the same old stone wall to butt his head against whenever he ia ready to begin. Hat Little More to Be Done. Compared with what the werk was when the Commercial club began it, there is little to be done in completing the grand army encampment fund. Tho sum required for proper entertainment of the veterans on their visit here next September was apparently large, but the city has met the demand with a loyalty and public spiritednets that belong to the new era of things. There was never any d'-ubtof the city's ability to assume responsibility of broad and costly hospitality for the encampment; there was never any lack of conlidance in the people's willingness to bear their share of the expense, and that they are giving the fullest evidence of their willingness has been observed in the readiness with which buoinebs men, professional men, wag-earners and all classes have responded to the solicitations of the Comuercial club the pat week far' the additional IjO.OOU. A noticeable feature of these 1 ater subscriptions is that mauy who pledged imouuüua the first liet havj increased them. Otuera who hal not eubucribed have done no during the past few days with a pronv&e of increasing them if it becomes necessary. To this work a popular impetus was given by the veluntary otftrings of wage-earners and salaried men. Their contributions hare been by no means small. They are indicative of everybody's pride ia the eity and earnest wih to have her come out "first best" in entertaining the eneampmeat. But every doilar is not to he exacted front the people. In addition to wLat they give are to come subscriptions from the railroads, brewaries, banks and other large interests. These, it is known, will bring the amount up te what is desirsd. With the reports of the past week's canvass in hand and a knowledge of what has been done by many solicitors who have not yet reported, it will require only a little more urging to bring the work to an end.

The coming week should mark a completion of the canvass, and it will if the people are as earnest, liberal and prompt in giving as they have been since Monday last. Nothing in the way of public entertainment undortaken by Indianapolis has approached this preparation for the national encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic. Upon the fulfillment of every detail of the plans of the citizens' executive committee depends a success that will glorify Indianapolis. That saccess can be attained only by the most cordial assistance of the people. Let it be given, and given in the first place by pledging every dollar of the additional SöO.OO) that is needed. The Wage Woman' Vacation. A novel philanthropic idea, recently put into operation in NewYork City, with auxiliaries in mauy of the leading cities, BUi?eet8 itaeif bb beinsr of the greatest

good to the greatest number as the season of the year approaches when the wageearning populace suffers from the beat of the city. The society referred to is the Helping hand visitors' club, designed to benefit two ciasaea of women the clerks and seamstresses of the city, who are not fortunate enough to have friends in the country, where they can during their brief summer vacation escape the dust and heat of the city, and who have not the means to par their way in such a home for even a brief time, and the busy hou-ewives in the country who would gladly board a respectable city girl free for several weeks in exchange for part of a day spent in domestio work or sewing. The remainder of the day could be giren over to recreation, auch as could be found in the country and which is 60 rare a pleasure to the girl of the city. This orzanization grew out of the fact that a woman of philanthropise turn of mind hid such a friend in the city and one in the country and arranged to have the shop girl transferred to the country home. The result was so satisfactory that from this germ grew the club that is certainly a godsend to an innumerable host. A breath of pure, exhilarating country air, with rambles over the meadows and through the woods, with such appetizing viands from the culinary department that can seldom be equaled or surpassed by the city caterer's art, can be fully appreciated only by the many who so seldom know its pleasures. A favored minority of our city women may be driven in an easy carriage to the station at the first sultry spell and hurried off to a watering resort or the seashore, whore shady retreats and cool breezes make life endurable. But we doubt if they eo thoroughly enjoy their summer as the shop girl who, day in and dav out, has endured the oppressiveness oi the average Btore, or the budy eeamstress who hs grown pale and languid over doing a work that never ends, when she is tranrferrd from the noiHorae bustle and stifling heat cf ths city to the quiet life and cooling breezes of the country. The farmer's wife, whose work usually begins at dawn and ends at dusk, finds that ehe, too, has time for rest and reading. This plan suggests itself as an admirable aid for persoue who try to help themselves, and through the Helping hand visitors' Club, 15 K. Fourteentn-st., New York City, msny may gum information that will make their buuiuacr a real pleasure. ppe a k I Nr; of the Burke appointment the Charleston X-rs aud Courier very truly says: "Mr. Cleveland cannot be expected to make good appointments when good men sign the petitions of unworthy men. or of men who are not especially fitted to perform the duties of a pubiic of'ice." We trust this observation will not be lost upon divers and sundry "good men" in Indiana. Ex-Congrkssman Clover of Kansas is out in an open letter denouncing his fellow popuüst. Jerry Simpson, as an arrant demagogue and a fraud of the flr3t water. When the populists, get at each other's true inwardness the party will go to pieces. No party can long eurvive whose basic principles are unintelligent discontent and personal eelfiehnees. ET CETERA.

Secretary Carlisle' favorite relaxation is a game of poker with a 1'5-cent limit. Sin.ralarly enough for a Kentuekian, he is almost invariably a loser. Mi. -a May L.

E-S'oiv.H diamonds to load two large coal trains, and having a total weight of 50,000,000 carr.ts, and valuation of $350.000,000, have been taken out of the Cape diamond fields since their discovery in 1837. Dk. Parkway Blake of Sheboygan has successfully grafted a pig's ear to the stump of an ear that had been sliced off the head of a favorite hunting dog. iou can't make a silk purse out oi some material, but every dog has his day. Mr. Morton, the new agricultural secretary, is a hustler at husking. He thinks nothing of husking L'OO bushels of corn a day, and he still owns a sorrel colt that he won on a chucking match with ex-Senator Van Wyck of Nebraska, six years ago. It was of the recentiy deceased ex-senator from Delaware, Mr. Saulebury, that some one once remarked sarcastically, as that gentleman wae seen striding up and down the senate chamber, apparently buried in thought: l.li thinks he is thiukin." It is now said that Assistant Secretary of State Josiah Qulocy will resign to run as the next democratic caudidate for gov ernor of Massachusetts. Governor Bus sell, it is eaid, will be appointed collector of the port of Boston at the expiration of his term of cilice. Prof. Viuchow, the world-famous pathologist, to whom a public banquet was recently given in London, was an ardent poBtician in his younger years, and had many an oratorical tilt with Prince Bismarck. Probablv few people on this side of the water know that he invented the

word "kulturkampf," to- designate the fight for cu tare that raged so violently in Germany some years ago. A tombstone in the quaint old cemetery at Eddy ville, Ky., bears the inscription: "W, J. Bigwood, murdered in cold blood by Hylan Skinner, on the day of , 1837." fckianer was tried last week for the crime, found guilty and sentenced to seven years' imprisonment. Christian Joachiw Mohn, a Norwegian linguist, who was acquainted .with more than sixty languages, most of them oriental tongues, died at Naples recently at the age of eighty-five years. He useoi to be a familiar figure in the British Museum, and was well known in moat continental European cities. The New York doctors are greatly alarmed over the unprecedented death rate that ia now prevailing ia that city. La6t week there were 1,135 deaths, an increase of 235 deaths on the same week last year. The greatest mortality is among children. As against this great death rate there were 921 births and 24.) marriages. Herbert Betts has followed the example of the Rev. George C. Miln and leaped from the pulpit to the stage. He plays the villain in a company now in the West, and he doesn't do it badly either, despite his brief histrionic experience. Six week ago Mr. Belts was an episcopalian minister in Louisville. His father is one of the leading clergymen of that city. INDIANA POSTMASTERS.

An interesting ease of "treasure trov" has bean tried in the circuit court in a nearby eounty in Alabama, la 18V0 Bobsrt A. Wilson, a well-to-do farmer of Clay aounty, was plowiug in his field and turnsd on d,000 ia twenty-dollar gold pieces. The box which contained the gold iruiubied into dust which showed that the money had beeea buried for rears, John L. Wilson, a relativ of Rjbsrt, brought suit for th money in behalf of Wilsen llarkius. w-o had been dead for tn yeara. Lawysrs were employed and th case was highly zeitintr. WiJsou L. liar, kins owned the farm on which the money waa found. Ia he was a prosperous farmer and hail an elegant mansion on the farm. Ou the 27th of March, 15. Wilson's raid was made sear this part ef Alabama and an old nero who waa a alare of Ilarkins and who waa the principal witneta for th ptinli:T, awor that on th day Wilsoa'a cammaad waa Dear by he saw his master run out of the dour with a box undrr on arm and a bag that looked as though, it contained money under the other. Th negro said hie matter called to hia to CAtoh the nurse nnd carry them to a certain thick woods and lie them. 11 said hia old maater raa to a plum orobard with th box and Lag. The aox of money was found between the roots of aa old pear stump near th plum nuruery. Th money fount waa all f 20 gold pieces and they tor date all the way from 1840 to lSt-5, there being ealy ihre pieces that bore the latter date. It waa prevail that no on had lived on the prm iaes since Ilarkins died who would have had tke aroeent of laeoey. The theory "of the plaintill waa that HareJna buried th taoney at the ties the eld aetjro saw him run out of tbe houts with the box and bag and that he told a oa of th spot and when h diad the aeorst dice with hi no. The Jsfendaot contended that, as the money waa dated from 1845 to 15, and as there waa such a bloekad during the early daya of 1665, aa the war was goiag on, it would have been next to impotaible for a $20 gold piece to have gone from the mint at l'hila lotpbia to Alabama from Jan. 1 to March 27, hence Ilarkins could not have buried th money at th time th negro aaw bim leave tha house. The decision, which waa in favor ef th defendant, Bobsrt Wilson, is the talk of the oouimiuutjr.

TEN MINERS DIE,

Awful Horror in a Shaft at Shamokin, Pa. Workmen's Lamp Causes the Explosion. MANY SAVE THEIR LIVES, Owing to the Fact That They Were Belated. Pathetic Scene at the Mouth of the Mine. A Hotel Casualty nt Bradford, Ta., In AVhlch Several Person Ioso 1 heir Live and. n hare Number lieceive reHone Injuries in the Hurniiijt of the nigging House-Other Casualties. Shamokin, Pa., April 1. A miner's lamp caused an explosion in the kelson shaft at 7 o'clock this niornin&r. Ten dead men have thus far been recovered from the shaft. They are: JOIJK ItOIJLE, married. JAM LS and MIKL it it LN NAN, single. JOHN RYAN, sincle. FREDERICK GIN'TER. single. JOHNBUItlT. married. JOHN GARRY, married. JOE RORTREX. single. NICK DOL'ION, married. FRANK KllL'PlS?, single. It is not known whether there are any more in the mine, which is burning fiercely, with the momentary danger of an explosion. One thousand men are thrown out of employment. Attempts wero made to f pht the fir?, but thoe who started to do eo were compelled to fleo for their lives. They succeeded in reaching the bottom of the ehaft and were hauled to the surface, alone with some belated miners, who owe their lives to the fact that they did not po to work at the usual time. The ten men who lost their lives were at work in the red ash vein, located nearly one hundred feet above where the fire broke out. Through an air way from the lower vein to the red a!h vein the smoke poured, bu8octlinc the unfortunates like rats in a trap. Almost the entire town gathered )p the vicinity of the burning mine, from the air passazes of which great volumes of smoke were ieeuine. The scenes were moM dieitreesin. Tho wives and children of the imprisoned men uttered agonizing cries, and implored the men in the crowd to rescue their loved one?. About i:.idday a re?cuiug partv of aix brave men went down the shaft and entered the burnins vein. The smoke was eo dente that they were compelled to lie down on their stomachs and keep wet spoogee to their nostrils to avoid EUlTocaticn. When they bad proceeded a short distance they came across the bodies of two men locked in each other's arms. They were the Ihren can brothers, Gusand Mi'cheaL Further on the bodies of eiht more men were found, making ten dead in all. The bodies were removed to the surface with much difllculty. They were taken to tho blacksmith shop, it here the iuo-t pathetic scenes were witnessed. Three of the men wem married and had larsre famiiies. The others were young men, averaging lees than twenty-tive years of aire. Only two muies were gotten out alive. Five were found with their ncka rtstinp over each other's bodies. How they got together in this position is a mystery. There are altogether thirty dead mules in the mine. At d p. m. Superintendent Gay announced that the ten bodies removed from the rd ah vein comprised the total number of dead. Although the hardest kind of work was done it was imronsib.e for the volunteer iorce to extinguish the flames, which at L' o'c ock communicated to tue red aeh vein. Three hours Inter orders were issued !o turn Carbon Lun cre-k into the mine. This wid take a month and many mere months will follow before the mine will be in condition to resume operations.
