Th KepublUxn State Coavention of
Indiana met on Wednesday, Septtmler
10. It heartily endorsed the administra
tion of Harrison and the course of Speak
er Reed. The Federal Elections bill was
strongly commended. The Indiana He
publicans know a good thing when they
see it.
Titrdiilin-nce between Speaker Reed's
methods and those of his enemies who
tried to steal a march on him at home is
the differem between Republican an,l
Iemocratic methods, snd people always
indorse tbe former, lecanse they like a
man w ho has no n-ars fir his policy or
lib actions but is willin; to defend both
on the stump and in 0ngrs.
Tiis Republican State campaign was
opened in i'ittsburg in great shape Satur
day evening. Senator I ngalls made the
uneeich of the occasion, a synopsis of
which will be found in our nws col
U'lins. Judging from the auspxious
opening of the campaign, the "State of
Allegheny" will be found in line w ith its
usual magnificent Kopublican majority
when it clones on the 4th of November.
It will not require such a tremendous
effort as some people think to elect the
Republican State ticket this fall. All it
will require ia for every voter worthy tbe
namj of Republican to go to the polls
and cast Lis ballot for the regularly nom
inated candidates of the party, and they
mill be elertea by the mnal majority of
Anywhere fK.m 40000 to 80,000. Thia ia
A simple duty that all true Uepublkans
w ill perform and take pleasuie in the
doing of it.
fiarrrfH news;iapers are ferocious in
their bitter comments npon tbe passage
of the Tariff bill by the Senate. They
ee in it the promis? of the upbuilding
if new industries in the United States,
And they know- that it w ill greatly lessen
the market for certain Ilritish manufac
tured products in the United States.
Their angry denunciations of the bill
will not make it any tbe less popular
with patriotic Americans. It is not tbe
habit of the American people to adapt
their industrial policies to I'.ritinh desires
or demands.
Arrxa two or three das of doubt,
caused by baseless democratic claims, it
turns out that tbe Republicans have car
tried the first State election in Wyoming
ty a good majority. The legislature is
largely Republican, aud a Republican
representative in Coiigroe was returned.
Tiie Republican campaign ia Wyoming
was made under erioru disadvantage.
F. E. Warren, the former Territorial Gov
ernor, was seriously ill aiiooit from tbe
lime of hi nomination until his ejection,
while his opponent made a vigorous can
vass. The Mormon element is strung in
two counties of the Slate, and the Mor
mon authorities at Salt Lake contributed
a large fund to help the iVemocrats carry
the State. Considering these things, the
AVyotniof election is another decisive
Itepublican victory.
TiiE political alliance between tbe re
rmbmuioniHtM and democrats in Kansas
f dace the "straight-out" Prohibitionist,
in a peculiar i option. The Iiemocratg,
for the niTt part, ara utterly opposed to
prohibition. Among them are all the
brewers, distil'era, iitipurters cf liquor,
"original-pai-kagw" aeJlurs, saloon-keep-ers,
and all w ho are, orevwr have been, or
who desire to b herebfUir, makers or
seller of inl-iiicanta. The resubmission,
tsts largely are disgrunlled Rejublicans,
Aoreheads glad of any pretext for perma
nent or temporary desertion from the
strand old party, and partly niea who
lioreatly believe that prohibition is not
tLe best CK-thod U ciKjt kir or prevent-
in the evil of intern peran. Th al
liance threstoos the total t,uL.ver;on of
the present liiiunr laws nf the '.ate,
which practically are rohioit Dry.
The republican party in Kar.ws.asa
body, would retain and enfort the laws
as they row stand. V.'i'.l the "otraiirht-"pr-jhihitiooirts
be found aiding tlie
Bsdoon-keepcni or sar;orlios tbe only
party ml.ich is ptelfl io enforce the
practically prohibitory laws of tbe State?
Prudence and conscience alike protest
againKt a practical alKanc cro-(!lt?l
pnJiibitionijts with the sworn fiKB of
prohibition.
Th Senate is to beejngratulate.1 npon
the passapeof tariff bill not differinff
widely from that known as the McKinley
hi!!, and, certainly, having no points of
variance which can not be adjusted in a
committee of conference between tbe tw o
Houses.
Except on sugar, tbe Senate's amend
ment Lave been in the line of further
reduction. And even in sugar the Senate
proposition is a wonderful reduction from
present rates. The snjrar question seems
to be the most complex and troublesome
of all that arise from practical considr
atiuu of the relations lietween tariff, rev
enue and protection.
Tne Senate's proposition to give the
FreciJent power to restore redocol duties
to old rates in the cane of im porta from
countries that continue to discriminate
between the trade of the United States
and other countrv-s may be wi.-e or rj
w ise. Actual experience w ill determine
this. Ita proposition fir the cabiih
Bient of a tx-rmar.er.t tariff commission
which shall report from t.ine to time np
on all ttatisti. of export, iaiport, foreign
er.d do;aestic produilion and price, and
the increase or decrease of United Stau
proluction and prices under various
scales of tariff will meet w ith favor. Not
the leapt meritorious feature of the f fo-
Ioed wminiwiion is the r.on-j nrtiran
character of its composition. The com
mission will be, in f;-?, a permanent
bureaa of tariff statist ics, and the rcpre-

r.ut that npon which the Senate main
ly is to be congratulated is that it has
brought its tariff discussion to a speedy
cl.ise. Mid has presented a bill to the
House which is in accord with the senti
ments of the Republican party and a
j great majority of tbe legally qua! died
voters of the United States.

TOM REED'S TRIUMPH.
Maine Coea Republican with Increas
ed Majorities.
The election in M line refilled in an over
whelming Republican majority throughout
tbe state. Speaker Eeed wsa returned from
the First Congressional DiMrict with a plu
rality of 47'JO. which is 2ii9 greater than he
has tr.-r received.. Governor Uurleigh was
re-elected over his Democratic op;onent by
1(1,000 plurality and the State Legislature is
strongly Republican.
The Speaker's Tictory is rem irkable snd it
speaks v ilumes. It wai won in an "oil"'
yeir. Tbe IV-mxrutie cmdid ite was select
ed for his strength and popula.'ity in his own
rank. Iu his own cityaming his neigh
bors and fallow ciiii.-ns, he has a plurality
of 1..VJ3, nearly three time? greater than ever
before, and l.e has done this io the city
where his opponent lives, and where the
latter was ei(eoI(d to be strong. First of nil
it is a Kational Republican vic'.ory to be
prooil of. The contest was on National is
sues alone and Die grand record raide by the
House of Representatives under the new
order of business o ably .and courageously
championed by speaker Itaed. it was a loud
riioken approval of the Republican Tariff
bill, the Federal Election bill and all tbe
other measures of Republican legislation in
Congress. Agin, it ia a ruagni&eent person
al testimony to th speaker himself. M&xf
Democrats voted for him because they be
lieved iu the wisdom of his rulings in the
House, because they wanted to vote for a
man of brains and courage.
After the result was known Siieaker Reed
addressed an enthusiastic meeting.
He aaid :

tbat it does. I ara thoroughly glad that tbe
vote of my district will be an incentive and
encouragement and the bringcr of bo to

we are engaged now in a great a battle as
ever the R -ptiMnao party fought. It ia as
much our d.ity to-day a it ever was in the

fEAlI FOB r.ICTIASS.
There is a certain class of politicians some
times belonging to one party and sometimes J
to the other, w ho are so exiraorumamy i
pendlcular ibat they lean over a iitlie back
ward. Who are neverquitesure that they are be
longing to a ny utiles they are voting tor
the candidates of the oliwr, and giving aid
and comfort to their adversaries. Tuere
f.re, Mr. President a:id fellow citizens of
Pittsburgh, I confess to being a lurtisan
lutiticiau, and 1 have no sympathy with
those who roll up their eyes until von ran
see nothing but the whites, and hold up their
bands in holv horror, and enlarge tbe bor
ders of their philactoriea, and stand on the
streets, nisgiiiftiug their own virtues, snd
thanking God "that they are not as other men
and not as other Republicans. II a man is a
Democrat in Cod's name let him be a Dem
ocrat. He that is tilthy let him be filthy.
And if he is a Republican in God's name, let
liim be a Itepubl can in otf years as well as
in Presidential years. Feliow citizens, I ara
often swkward, beimr what is commonly
called a Republican Repuhiiran, and that is
as we ray iu the wet. "A R-publican foul
the head ol tbe creek." in w hom their is no
variableness ncr shadow of turning. I am
a'-ked what is trie dilfreuce between a lbs
publican and a Democrat, or the difference
between the D- mocratic and Republican thir
ty? What odds does it make eviept that o:ie
or the other shall have te :li, v '.' J have
one observa' ion to make ou that poird, fal
low citizens. I have one slight ditlercnoe to
suggest as to the d i tference bt ttveen the Dem
ocratic and Republ'ctn party in tbe ol years
as well as in the Presidential year, ami tbat
i. that upon every issue. ti;on every ques
tion affecting the honor, the welfare, and the
prufri;y and tbe exis'enee f this nation
for the last oM year, the K-publiean p'irty
lias always been right and tbe Democratic
party
HAS ALWAYS CF.ES WROXU.
And it is iust exactly as w rong at this par
ticular moment of time as it was in lS'il or
any time since lied. Slavery, ecrsion.
State sovereignly, reconstruction, the public
credit, tbe national currency, the resump
tion of sjx-cie ynient, to coir.ege of s-lver,
prolection to American lhor and tbe tari!!
lor tbe protection of American industries, I
say to you that ui"in every one of these
quesiioiif". from the beginning down to the
last syllable of tbe reoild of litiif even so
late as rhursday of last week ibe Republi
can any ha., always liten rihi and the
Democratic party has a! way been wrong.
Applause. And it will continue to be
wrong, woild without end, anoa.

I supi-ose, fellow citizens', ibat in the sub

empty cans, the cast-off clothing, exhiim; of

ing l ad the usufruct is fatlpoed and di sires
finally to di.iose of without further com

dumping ground of politics in the nine
teenth century. Every excluded heresey,
evt ry abandoned beresy-everything tbat tbe

liEApy to Bt casviwcxn.
If it can be pointed out or designated. I
will conies to my error, aud ii'any rwni'ipr
of ibat organization will point out to me
any act that they have ever performed, ex
cept to resist, to peevishly complain, to at
tempt by revolutionary and intolerable
measures to defeat tbe great beneficent
statutes that have been enacted by the great
Republican parly, wbicb they have not
afterwards themselves endorsed, and which
they have not a-ked the American people to
forgive tbem for having attempted to defeat
ami overthrow, I will again confess my
error and iik to be forgiven.
My feliow citizens, I have erred in calling
the Democracy a jrty. Itjs an aggregation
of the ignorance, the imbecility and the dis
loyalty of this country. Strongest where
public morality is weakest, reinlorcing all
(be dangerous 'and destructive agencies of
society nd having neither cunauieiioe nor
courage of convictiiwjs, jt is perpetual and
constant menace to the proirity and the
honor of tbe American peoole ; aud yet, fel
low citizen", I occasionally hear some poor
mortal complaining of tbe ftepnhlican party
because it ha had many indWensibte poli
cies. Well, I have been somewhat ofa kick
er myself. There bave been Republican
leader tbat I did not ike : there have been
Republican policies tbat I did not approve
of and indorse, and I bave said so without
hesitation but f think the worst Republican
that aver lived I better by fa' than the best
-mKri that vm lived. Politically shak
ing, I mean, I hare many rtraonl friends
among the Democratic party, and I have
always, therefore, taken the e Miaeq'ienoea.
Fellow citizens, your chairman was good
enough to say that I was not a stranger to

and ladies aud gentleman. There are Con

A voice Y'ou are right.
There is to day in one cf the Stales of this
Union a Constitutional Convention silling
with (be avowed purpose of disfranchising
Republicans and rendering it iinisible for
tlieu t viii now or hereafter. There are
States and Coi!grnioiia! district where, by
the enactments ot Democra.y
there reins
nothing but despotism and tyranny. The
last j-est ig" or pipuiar government and i.e
pubiican principles have been overthrown
am! there is nothing left of the Declaration
ot lmb jieiidence or the Constitution of the
United Slates, more than there U in the
Dahomey or Z'llula.id. 1 have many times
s.id, Mr. President, end I Jay here again,
thai so long as I continue in public life, or
private life for Ibat matter, I never will de
sist in any pretence and in every presence
from declaring that this struggle shall never
cease until it is just exactly as safe for a
black Republican to vote in Mississippi as it
is for a white Democrat in Pennsylvania.
A voice Why don't you do it?
Then I allirm, Mr. President, that it was
upon that pledge that the Republican party
wa restored to p'ower. I athrra that tbat
pledge ha not been redeemed. I ailirm mr
ihur that if there has been any bargain, if
there has been any agreement, if there has
tiecn any understanding by which it is not
to lie redeemed, it is a bargain more dispu
table than that of Ksau when he sold his
birthright for a mess of pottage, and more
l-erfidioiis llian tbat by which the Maer
was betrayed for 3" pitces of silver.

Effect In Washington.
A, a result of Mr. Reed's signal victory
there is already renewed courage infused all
along the Republican lines in Congress.
This is especially noticeable in the Senate,
where the passage of the Federal Elections
biil early tha next session is no longer talk
ed of as a possibility, but is now regarded as
a certainty. Tbe vote of Mr. Reed's district
is not only considered as a great endorse
ment of his cours3 in preventing filibuster
ing and in enforcing the will and right of
the mpjority in the House, but is also re
garded ss a vole of direct approval of all the
meas-.ires especially urgedty this adminis
tration, and pushed through the House by
the rulings and influence of Speaker Reed
and his immediate associates. Among the
measures the Federal Elections bill stands
out most conspicuously.
Ir.dii.i, the Democrats have made the
Elections bill a special Usue in Mr. Read's
district, and sevtral of the Democratic and
mugwump newspapers of the country have
dtinct'y ar-nounced that the vote in the
First Maine district yesterday would be ac
cepted throughout the entire country as a
verdict ujion the Federal Elections bill. The
verdict ha been given, and the friends of
that miasurcare corresponJingiy happy.
The Tariff Bill Passed.
Washinoto.v, Sept. 11. In the Senate on
Wednesday after six hours of closing general
debate, as per the Q iay agreement, the Tariff
bill was passed by a party vote 10 Republi
cans and 13 Democrats. The Senate aptsjint
ed a Committee of Conference to meet i
similar committee cf the House.
Mr. Aidrich's reciprocity amendment was
agreed to 37 to 2S, Edmunds and Evarts
being the only Republican Senators to vote
against reciprocity. October I was selected
as tbe dale on ;which the bill is to go into
effect, except as regards tbe sugr schedule,
the bounty feature not becoming operative
befi.-c the Jit of Mar,:h net. An additional
section was adopted provii ing fqr the cre-
aliou of a Tariff Commission. ThU js to he
a permanent body, to furnish report and
opinions upon the operation of tariff laws
and the effect of changes. Congress is now
furnished by tbe Treasury and State Depart
ments with nearly all the facts that this
Commission is exjected to gather, but noth
Ing more than tbe facts. Tbe Commission
is exixcted not only to present tbe facts, but
Io make comments upon them. Another
amendment provides that all merchandise
imported prior to August 1, now in bond,
may be retained there until November 1st
without liability to the increased tax impos
ed by the bill.
Tbe qutstbjn Bt jMije between the House
and the Senate will, no doubt, be easily set'
tied. In musts re? peels the bill is it passed
tbe Senate is identical with that approved
hv the House. The chief alteration, of
course, is the adoption of the Senate' Fi
nance Committc's reciprocity amendment
This is a new feature entirely, and may give
rise to some difficulty in conference com
mittee. The tugar duties are also somewhat
in dispute, the Senate making tbem notice
ably higher than the House did. Art, which
the House put on the free list, tbe Senate
made dm iable and binding twine, taxed by
the House, is made free of duty by the Sen
ate. Iu the Clnss, Metal and Flax and Hemp
schedules a fw minor differences also ap
pear ; but apart from the sugar duties and
the reciprocity question Ihere are few matters
at issue wbicb could not be settled offhand in
an hour or two. The exact number of
amendments made by tbe Senate Is 4G4.
Probab'y 1J0 of Ihern could be disposed of
in conference at a sing e meeting.
Forty Persons Poisoned.
BtSoETTSTotTS, Pa., September 13. Last
evening tt a reception given at the borne of
Mr. McCarroll. of Hickory. eight miles west
of here, 40 of the SO persons present were
poisoned by eating canned corn. Among
the poisoned guests were three physicians,
Drs. McCarroll, McF.lrry and Campbell.

Wharton Barker's CommttteAi It
Declaration in Favor of Demo
cracy. The long promised declaration of Whar
ton Parker in favor of Robert K. Pattison
for Governor has been given to the public.
The address is singularly like tbat issued
by the three tailors of Tooley street, who
began it thus : "We, tbe people of England,
address our fellow cilixens," etc Mr. Earker
is somewhat more modest, as he begins bis
address thus : "We, the voters of Pennsyl
vania, address our fellow citizens,", etc.
and then follows a deliberate misrepresenta
tion in the statement, that "Some of us who
sign this paper, are and have been since the
birth cf tbe party earnest Republicans who
have given its policy and plana oar constant
spprova! and support." . '
This statement is willfully false, as Mr.
Rarker knows he cannot possibly name two
signers to that address who have given a
constant support to the policy and plans of
the Republican party. Tims and again they
bave, almost without exceplion, given earn
est support as Mugwumps or Barkerites
to the Democratic party in city, State and
National politics and elections, and it is not
surpr.Bing that they seek to qualify that
recklessly false assertion in these words:
"Kut all of u. without exception, are of Re
publican afliiialions; we reverence the par
ty tradition? and fully recognize tbe great
national work which the party has accom
plished in t!.4 past."
There are just M signers to this declara
tion in favor of Free Trade Democratic
measures and men. There is not a Protec
tionist among thjm not one They are
Free Traders, not outspoken, bold, manly
Free Traders, but Free Traders in disguise,
of the bush wacker order. Most of tbe num
ber are importer of the products of the
pauper iabor of Europe, and every man
whose name is signed to that address hopes
to profit by the enforcement of tbe Free
Trade policy of the Democratic party.
Tbe rewaid of Judas Iscariot, for betrayal,
was thirty pieces of silver, but his price was
so contemptible that, upon reflection, he
went out and hanged himself. It is said that
Wharton Baiker's reward is to be the Secre
taryship of the Treasury nnder Grover Cleve
land, in the event of the election of that
Free Trader, who as President of the United
States "challenged the protected industries
to the death." In the event of the defeat of
Cleveland in 1J2, the price of Wharton
Marker's betrayal of Republican principles
may npiear more contemptible than that of
Judas.
For his opposition to John Sherman, in
18so, Wharton Barker expected to be made
Secietary of tbe Treasury under Garfield,
but missed it. He was a candidate for the
same office nnder Harrison and bit the murk
just where he missed it with Garfield. As
neither Quay nor Cameron supported Barker
hi pretentious ambition to pose as a
statesman, he holds both responsible for his
failure to secure the Treasury portfolio nnder
Harrison, and he hopes to get even with
tbem by electing Robert E. Pattison, the
Democratic candidate for Governor; William
L. Scott, Senator in place of Cameron, and
Grover Cleveland, President in li'Ji.
Duplicity never gained a cause or won a
battle, and had Wharton Barker said in bis
address: "We are Mugwumps, Free traders
in disguise, who bate tbe Republican party
with malignant hatred. We have sought
office at its bands, and it having been de
nied to ns, we nw seek to destroy the party
of Protection to American labor and capital,
and we invite your assistance," bis state
ment would bave bad the merit of candor
and courage, ani it would bave gained quite
as many con vers as the shameless duplicity
he has attempted to impose npon ac intelli
gent people. s
Now that the facts are made public nut
one of which can be successfully denied
it is not likely tlat Wharton Rarker aud bis
Free Trade Committee will succeed in their
attempt to bet ay the Republican party,
and, Judas like, Icliver it, bound hand and
foot, to the Denucratic party.
Tbe effect of this, Wharton Barker's ad
dress, ought to je still more disastrous to
those making it by staling tbat, to use tbe
words, of the address : '"Some of us who
sign this pspsr," addressed their fellow
citizens in opposition to Mr. Blaine in 1S4
and lw.-i, and bad the effrontery to a&k
them to support Grover Cleveland for the
Presidency.
Theaddresis simply part ofa well un
derstood program to pave the way for Cleve
land and Fre Trade. '
A Somrambulist's Discovery.
Cavz CiTY.'xy., September 14. A remsrk-
able somnamhilistic feat was performed a
few nights g by Christopher Medway of
this place. Ir. Medway is a prominent
lawyer and scion of one of Kentucky's
oldest familiet In 111, at the breaking out
of the war, his father packed up his silver!
plate, which wis very valuable, and hid it
in the Marumch Cave. This was done in
the midst ofa great hurry and confusion,
and owing to ome oversight the place wss
left unmarked and when, In 13., tbe Med
ways wished to Mig the silver up no one
could recollec with any certainty the spot.
and though I was sought lor, off and on.
for years it ws never located, snd, tLe nu
merous excavtions resulting in no discov
ery, it was finlly believed tbat some one
bad stolen thebox and refilled the hole.
Mr. Medwa's father died convinced that
it was so, andfor more than ten years no
one gave furthr thought to the matter. But
recently Mrs. Jed way revived the subject by
relating the aory to some friends in her
husband's heaing, and that gentleman says
he went to bed wondering if his father's be
lief in the theflof the box was correct, and
that on fallirr to sleep be re-enacted the
scene of the reroval and burial of the silver
at which he ws present, though only a boy
of 14.
When he awke be found, himself lying
on tbe ground lose to a large rock, and in
black darknesaexcept lur a faint gleam of
light in the farlistance. At first he experi
enced some ditculty in realizing where he
war, but wbenie did, concluded on remem
bering his dretn tbat he had managed to
slip by the nigb watchman into the cave,
and bis raeraor singularly aroused in his
slumbers, had found bis way to the spot
where be had sea tbe silver buried twenty
nine years be foe, s
After mark in; the rock, be made his way
to the gate thrcigh which be saw the morn

found himself n awaking, and soon had
the satisfaction of seeing them lift out the
case of silver, wiich being opened was found
intact.
Train Weokerw Will Confess.
Alsakt, N.i, Set. 15. It was learned

now in custodjas being wreckers, and it is
said that the ewlence put into tbe bands of

ments and contdion. The only trouble to
be lea red seemit be tbe jury, which con
tains men knorc to be in sympathy with

and others redved as much as $2 50 each
The ex -striker! are thoroughly disgusted,
and it is belietd tbat if they should ever

Xssr Yobs, September 14 A letter from

Might. Akirg the seaboard c nntits of Io: e
gsi. Mayo snd Galwpy the potato crop is a
total lot and as tbe people there d-teud
entirely npon tbe potato crop, this means
that (hey are already bard up for food.
Bitterexperience has taught thera no better.
Further inland where the soil is more fertile
tbe potato crop is more fruitful. Taking
Ireland as a whole, it is probable that only
a one-lhird potato crop will be secured.
This is much below Scotland, where the
blight has' also been revere. "Wheat and
oats in Ireland are as good as the English
and Scotch harvest.
Tbe leaders of the Irish party are opposed
to an appeal, for aid. to America or any
other country, as they will interfere
with tbe plan of campaign. . Emigration is
one remedy f r tbe distress proposed by Bal
four, ami he intimates tliat at least a quarter
ofa million people can be shipped from the
west cowst of Ireland to the United 8tates by
wsy ol Canada.
John Dillon, who makes the disburse
ments under the plan of campaign, says be
has now 1,300 families to support, with an
average of five people to each family. These
will be increased by about 70 families, who
are to be evicted this rKwith from the fa
tnous Otphert estates. It now costs, on an
average, $5,00!) each week simp'y to snpport
these evicted tenants. By this tour in
America Dillon snd O'Brien expect to raise
money enough to carry on the plan of cam
paign till the next general election, but for
tbe purpose of immediate relief their funds
will be available for less than 10,00 people.

' A Boy's Mad Leap.
' McKt ssroBT, Sept. 15. Samuel Y'oung, a
19 year-old boy from Bellevernon, leaped
from a pemick-y train this morning, near
Demmler, on a 30 foot high trestle. He fell
to the ties, and clung to one of tbem until
the train bad passed, when he tainted and
fell to the ground. 30 feet below. The boy
was afterward picked up unconscious and
was taken home to Bellevernon to die.
Tbe mad leap of the boy was ' explained,
when it waa found that his habits had been
very bad and that he was in charge of con
stable Patton at tbe time. The two were on
their way to Morganza. When they ap
proached the trestle, he coaxed the officer to
remove the handcuffs, and as the remaining
part of the journey was very short, tbe of
ficer consented to do as requested. The boy
suddenly made a dash fur tbe door, with tbe
officer after him, and when Y'oung jumped,
the hand of theofficer just grazed bis shoul
der. The train wrs running fast at the time
and the boy fell across the tie. with terrible
force, then to tbe ground afterwards."

A Prehistoric City Found.
Chattanooga, Teun., September 15. Mr.
E. llirsch, an extensive mining operator,
who has secured options on the celebrated
Dui ktown copper mines, has returned from
Polk county. He states that laborers have
discovered a prehistoric city near Mineral
Bluff, In the copper regions. Many evi
dences of Indian occupation hvs already
been unearthed. The first and principal dis
covery was that of an ancient stone wall. It
was traced for a mile. Traces of houses were
also found during the brief investigation
made and I ottery found.
Mr. Hirsh, who bas visited tbe buried
cities cf the same race of people in Arizona,
recognized it as of a aimilar character to tbe
relics discovered there. There is a tradition
handed down from the Indians thi t there
was here a ruined city, and that vast tress
urea had been found. The work of excav.
tion will he continued.
