COAL MINE DISASTER. TerrlOe Explosion Is s Cost Mine at Odin. 111., with Two Haodnd Mon in the Drift* —Mine of Them were Terribly Manned, Some of Whom Will Die. Carlyle, III., Feb. ML—A terrible mine explosion occurred at tbe Odin coal mine, 15 miles east of this city, Friday. The force of the concussion was felt throughout town. It was fallowed by a deafening; report. The en* glneer at the mine had gone home to dinner when the explosion occurred, and it was half an hour before any aid could be sent to the200 miners entombed in the bowels of the earth. Immediately after the explosion the mine caugtit fire and smoke rolled out from the shaft as if issuing from a huge smokestack. The residents of the town had been apprised of what had occurred, and soon the wives, daughters, mothers, brothers and fathers of the miners begad to congregate about the shaft of the mine. Still no engineer came. '1 he women became frantic, man}' fainting on the spot. In the meantime the men below were nearly suffocated with smoke, and it was decidedly a great relief to them to see thf^cage move on its upward trip. One hundred and seventy of the men were rescued by the citizens and the miners’ fellow-workmen at the peril of their lives. The fire still continued unabated. and the remaining thirty men in the mine were given up for lost. These men were almost dying from suffocation in the bottom of the mine, but by a special act of Providence it seems the fire died out. A searching party was sent immediately to the bottom. There they found the miners lying here and there unconscious and nearly dead." They were piled up like cordwood on the cages and quickl}’ as possible raised to the top of the shaft, where they slowly regained consciousness.

The cause of the accident was a premature blast in a room in the mine being worked by Luther Weingartner. The blast ignited a twenty-five-pound keg of powder, which exploded w ith terrific effect. The mine in the immediate vicinity was torn up in a terrible manner, and the twenty-five miners working in the same rooureertainly had a miraculous escape from-death. A relief train from Centralia carried several surgeons., It will be several days before the mine can resume operations. Thirty miners were injured in all. 'Those most seriously hurt are: Luther Weingartner, burnt about head and face; has a large family; can not live. John Tadlock and son are both burnt about the head and body; little hopes of recovery; he also has a large family. John Link, aged 18 years, severely buYot about body; will probably recover. Albert Little, aged 17 years, nearly suffocated and badly burned; will recover. James Smith, single, aged.gs, burned about faco and hands; recovery dpubtful. j Rodman Eubanks, aged 25, married, badly burned; may recover. Albert Jacobs, aged 24. married, seriously burned and may not recover. An unknown man, aged 50 years, and another one, aged about 85, are also fatally burned and can not live. This is as full a list of the injured as could be secured.' It is feared some have perished in the mine, -r BEATS MARDI GRAS. A Snow Carnival In New Orleans—The Heaviest Fall In Forty-Five Tears. New Orleans, Feb. 16.— Not since the winter of 1850 have such sights been witnessed as those seen in this city Thursday evening. From 11 a. m. the snow had been falling heavily, and as the foundation was good it formed over eight inches deep in the city streets, with drifts much deeper in the outskirts. By evening all the electric-car lines were <, blocked, and most of the other routes, forcing business men in manyv instances to trudge home miles through the deep snow. On Canal street and the main thoroughfares a snowball carnival was in progress all day, and hotels, club and stoie windows were full of sightseekers taking in the unwonted spectacle. Improvised sleighs hastily put together on boards ran the gauntlet of a snow fusillade as they passed the cheering, shouting crowds.

MINISTER GRAY’S BODY Will be Brought llutne From Mexico tor Burial at Indianapolis. Indianapolis, Ind., Feb. 16.—Pierre Gray, son of the dead minister to Mexico, says that his father’s body will be brought here at onee for burial. The funeral will be a large one, many organizations from all over the state having already signified their intention to attend. The body will probably lie in state at the capitol building. The legislature adjourned out of respect. GRAY’S SUCCESSOR. 1 Ex-Got. Crittenden May be Minister to Mexico. Washington, Feb. IS. —The death of Minister I. P. Gray has given rise to rumors that ex-Gov. Crittenden of Missouri, consul-general to Mexico, is likely to be promoted to fill the existing vacancy, and that Representative Buck Kilgore, of Texas, is very apt to lie selected as consul-general. Consul-Gen-eral Crittenden is known to stand very high at the state department. HARRIET A. ESKINS, Whose Father Reigned as King of Guinea* Bead at Lebanon, Fa. Lebanon, Pa,, Feb. 16.—Mrs. Harriet A.

RATES FOK CLERGYMEN. A numberof the eastern railroads hat ing on January 1,1changed their roles regarding the issue of reduced rates to clergymen, and unauthorized statements as to the reasons for making the change having been published,eon* siderable correspondence between the clergy and the rail reacts has resulted. The recent letter from Hon. Chauncey M. Depew, President of the New York Central, corrects certain erroneous impressions and states that company s position in the matter very clearly. The letter is as follows: New York Central and Hudson River Railroad Co-, Grand Central Depot. New York.. Janaary 1», 1888. Btv. Netcton. J. ConJtii-i and B. U. Stebbint, J>. D.y Commute: Gbntlkmes.—I am in receipt of your letter of January 15th, enclosing the resolutions of the I*i-e«byterian Ministers’ Association of Rochester. The resolutions are based upon a misapprehension of the facts. The press dispatch announcing that the New York Central had withdrawn the ministerial half-rate tickets “because some of the ministers had abused the privilege, loaning their permits to unauthorized persons, and sometimes even selling them," was wholly unauthorized. No such information or hotioe was given to the pressor to anyone else by any officer of this company. There was also an interview reported with me on this subject, making similar, if cot more serious charges, but no such interview ever took place I deeply regret the publicity which was given tp this- matter and the discussion which has grown out of it before we had really arrived at what was the best policy’ for this company and its associates in the Trunk Line Association to pursue. It had been developed that very great abuses existed in the issuance and use of the so-called

ministerial ticket. It was not. however, the fault of the ministers. So far as I can ascertain, no clergyman of any church has been guilty of any Impropriety in the use of this privilege. Like mast departures from regular rules, this one led after awhile to serious demoralization of passenger rates. The privilege of the ministerial order became extended to all persons who had ever been ordained as clergymen, whether they still had any charge or performed any- ministerial services or not. ,Many who had gone into business claimed and received the order. Then it was extended to missionaries and officers of the Salvation Army, of the Y. M. C. A., and of other religious or semi-religious organizations. This enabled railway officials who desired to do so to issue the half rate ticket to almost anybody. I am sorry to say that some railways do not treat their agreements with each other with the same sense of honorable obligation which the officers would observe in their individual transactions. We were amazed to discover that in order to increase their business without apparently cutting the rates a few of the roads placed the ministerial ticket* in scalpers’ offices for sale. In this way they came into the hands of the general public. It frequently occurred that the conductor, when calling upon some passenger whom he did not think was a minister to products the ministerial order which every clergyman carried, was met by a flat refusal, simply because the passenger was not a minister, had no order and had received or purchased the ticket in some one of the ways which I have described. Or, the conductor would find that under the guise of a missionary or an officer ©f one of these organizations he had received the order and ticket or else had bought a ticket which some one who could not be vouched for as a clergyman with a charge had secured, and then placed in a scalper’s office for sale. Of course the essential principle at the bottom of the relations between the railways and the public is that everybody sl\all be treated alike; that the railway fare shall be' like the postage of the government, the same to everyone who boards the train and becomes a passenger between the same points. The wisdom of the prohibition of discriminations in favor of one person as against another, or of one shipper as against another, or of one locality as against another, is now universally admitted, and is incorporated in the railway laws. The ministerial ticket was issued at a reduced rate, not as an act of charity, as some have alleged!, but because it was believed that the clergy and the church performed an essential service, which was felt throughout the vast employment of these corjjorations. • Personally, I would be very glad if the privilege could be continued under restrictions which would confine it within legitimate bounds. You will see. however, from the explanations which 1 have given, how difficult a problen this is. Yours very truly, (Signed) Chauscett M. Depkw, President. - Albany Arytuu—Jan. S9,1895.

THE FARMING WORLD. GALLOWAY CATTLE. Short Description of Om of tho Moati Noted Ueef Broods. This breed derives its name from the province of Galloway in the southwestern portion of Scotland. It is one of the oldest races, and it is highly probable that it and the Aberdeen Angus have a common ancestry, being descended from the polled variety of the original forest breed. The Galloways are coming more and more to the front in Great Britain. They are in great demand for crossing purposes, as the superior sweetness and juiciness of their beef is well recognised in the London market. A favorite cross is

1‘JUZK G AI. LOW AY HI'Ll,.

that of a Shorthorn bull and Galloway dam, in which early maturity is a, great feature. The Galloways were first brought to this country about fifteen years ago, since which time they have made their way steadily. Their hardiness adapts them to the ranches of the west, and their ease of acclimation creats a demand for them in the south. In both places their ability to withstand variations in temperature has made them of great service for crossing with native races. Their skins are valuable for robes. The Galloways are a polled or hornless breed, black in color, with a brownish tinge in winter; skin thick, but soft and pliable, with long, silky hair with a soft, thick coat of wool underneath; the head short and wide between the eyes, which are large and prominent; medium-sized ears; short neck; breast wide; body long and round, with straight back- and short, strong legs. They are distinctly beefgrowing animals, are hardy, easily handled and excellent rustlers. They are very prepotent, but do not mature early.—N. Y. World.

PROFITABLE COWS. The Quality la Far More Important Than the Quantity. It is the small number of good cows, well fed and carefully attended to, that bring the most profit. Many farmers would do better with half the number of cows and expending on them the full amount of care. The point is to keep only the best and push them to their limit. To do this it is necessary to know not only how much milk and butter each cow produces, but also how much it costs to produce it. Feeding by guess work will not pay. Give each cow all she will eat and then calculate how much she turns into butter. If you are satisfied with the result, keep her; if not, get rid of her. Good food has a great deal to do with the end desired, but it will not create the temperament of a cow, nor make of her a good dairy animal, any more than it will ever make a good cow out of & small milker, and there is no use wasting effort. It is calculated that it requires about 15,000,(XX) cows to supply the demand for milk and its products in the United States, and that the universal use of the Babcock test would result in cutting down the number about onethird, to the great benefit of the farmer, who is the one injured by the “don’t know’' business. Keep an account with each cow, and if she does not give you a fair profit fatten her for beef cr sell her to some one else who is willing to go into a losing business. The requirements of a good dai^y cow are, briefly, a fair yearly production of milk and butter, a minimum amount of feed to produce a given amount of butter, certain transmission of milking qualities to offspring and gentleness and longevity; These are the qualities for which the farmer must look and which require his constant care, not only to obtain but to retain. There is a wide-range between good dairy cows and the average. The average cows in the United States make 13(X pounds of butter per year, while the good dairy eow yields from 360 to 400 pounds.—N. Y. World.«

DAIRY j SUGGESTIONS. At the end of the year get rid ol avery cow thaft does not produce 200 pounds of butter. Whenever you are trying a cow that is in milk, examine the milk and also milk tlie cow yourself before buying. Tainted butter wilt not sell at a profitable price. Don’t try to sell it if you have established a reputation as a butter-maker. Don’t try to economise in the dairy by feeding frosted or musty food. There is no economy in it, for the butter will be injuriously affected. We do not hear so much now of pedigree as we used to. Not that a buyer does not want an animal with a good pedigree. He does. But he must have individual merit with it. Formerly pedigree alone sold the cow. Is these times when the cost of production needs to be brought down as low as possible, .the time and trouble spent in investigating cows before buying them is most profitably spent. A poor cow is dear at any price. Fok his own benefit the farmer should feed his cows upon only the best feed, even if he takes his milk to the creamery, for the better the whole product the better the price and the better able the creamery is to stand. The temperature needs watching in winter. Butter is often spoiled by an imperfect temperature and the imperfect temperature sometimes results from the impression that in cold weather the milk will be all right anyhow.— Farmers’ Voioe. ■ '

How the Hoi* Tunnels. -'few place the wriggling and rea* tire little creature upon the ground on a spot where the ground is not unreasonably hard, so that he may hare a fair chance for disappearing, and see what he will do. The instant he touches the earth, down goes his nose, feeling nervously here and there for a place to start his drill. In about one second 'he has found a suitable spot H is nose sinks into the soil as if it were a brad-awl, with a half boring and half pushing motion, and in an instant half your mole’s head is buried from view. Now watch sharply, or he will be out of sight before you see how he does it Up comes his powerful right foot sliding close along the side of his head, straight = forward, edgewise, to the end of his nose. His five-pointed chisel cuts the earth vertically until it reaches as far forward as his short reach will let it go; then, with a quick motion, he pries the earth sidewise from his nose, and so makes quite an opening. Instantly the left foot does the same thing on the other side, and meanwhile the gimlet-pointed nose has gone right on boring. In five seconds, by the watch, his body is entirely out of sight, and only his funny little tail can tie seen. In three minutes he will tunnel a foot, if he is at all in a hurry to get on in the world.—W. T. Hornaday, in St. Nicholas.

Dm(dcu Cannot be Cured as they cannot reach by local-applications, thediseasea portion of theear. There is only one way to cure Deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Bend for circulars, free. _ P. J. Chenkt & Co., Toledo, O.

Nasty codliver oil and its filthy “emulsions" and mixtures, had been tried in nearly all these cases and had either utterly failed to benefit, or had only seemed to benefit a little for a short time.
