There are fire million Indians in
Mexico.
Scotxaxd was shaken np by an
earthquake last Thursday.
A great coal oil field has been dis
covered on the western shore of the
Bed Sea.
The powerful European govern
merits are doing: their best to choke
off Greece from attacking Turkey.
The Senate has been discussing
the bill to pay for the Rock Spring
massacre, in which a number of Chi'
nese were killed. The riots took
place some months ago.
Hebb Most, the Socialist leader
was arrested in New York Citv a few
nights ago, tinder a bed in a disrep
utable house. He was arrested on a
charge of having spoken and written
in favor of his followers burning and
plundering the city.
Tee two comets that hove in 6krbt

for that reason it is impossible for
general interest to center in them.
Exit ccmet-
The Philadelphia Bulletin remarks:
The Anarchist dynamiters of Chica
go filled their stomachs on Wednes
day night with stuff found in bottles
in a drug 6tore that they sacked.
Eight of them have died and four
others are bevond recovery. These
involuntary suicides, who were ready
to commit muider and pillage pri
vate property, cannot be mourned in
Chicago or anywhere else- Let their
brethren have free access to drug
stores, and they will pel ish in great
er numbers than if they had to be
shot or hanged, and at less expense
to the authorities.
The Ohio Democratic State Sena
tors that left the State of Ohio to
prevent the election fraud cases from
being considered, are denounced by
their own party. It was such a clear
case to prevent the lawful adjustment
of fraud troubles, everybody could
gee through it, hence the rank and
file of the Democracy denounce the
unlawful action of the Democratic
members. The members of all par
ties give to their own people the pref
erence, but the mass of all parties
having a purpose to do what is right
will leave the party when they see
clearly that a wrong has been done.
IIekr Most didn't have the petti
coat of a wife to hide under, but he
bid under the bed of a courtezan with
whom he sometimes lived in New
York city. The blustering blather
skite always hunts up a woman when
he wants to escape responsibility.
Parsons, the American cowardly An
archist, is hiding from the officers of
the law in Chicago. You can rely
on it, that when he is found it will
be behind or under petticoats. If
the petticoat crowd had justice met
ed out to them, their final piece of
decoration would be a piece of hem
pen rope drawn closely around the
neck. They should be hnng, that is
the verdict of 80 per cent of the
60,000,000 people of the United
States of America.
Jeff Davis and Herr Most would
make a fine team, for they are alike
in more than one particular. Davis
was in favor of despotic measures to
bring about a 6tate of slavery. Most
is in favor of despotic measures to
bring about a state of anarchy. In
the supreme moment of danger Da
vis put on 6ome of Lis wife's clothing
to escape capture. In the supreme
moment of danger, last week, Most
crept under a bed to escape being
captured by the .New lork police.
When the truth of American history
is revealed to generations yet unborn
the champion of slavery, Jefferson
Davis will be represented in the he
roic robe of his wife's bonnet and
jetticoat, and Herr Mcst, the foreign
Anarchist will be represented in the
heroic attitude of dodging under a
bed to hide from the American po
lice.
Storm Sotes.
Kansas City, Mo., May 11. About
half-past ten this morning ominous
6torm clouds began gathering over
the city. The darkness was almost
like night, and people fled to the
nearest shelter and awaited with
blanched faces the fury of the tem
pest. The storm struck the city in
full force about twenty minutes past
eleven and raged for half an hour.
The streets were rnnning rivers of
water, carrying boxes and signs and
other similar freight, blown from the
buildings or swept no bv the flood.
A number of vehicles were overturn
ed, and in numerous instances drivers
abandoned their horses to their fate
and sought refuge in stores and
houses. Some hail accompanied
tue 6torm, but the fall was not
great
The Lathrop building was crowd
ed with children, many of whom went
nearly frantic with grief over the ap
palling darkness and the stillness
wrucn preceded the tempest The
wind swept across Broadway from the
west, and seemed to concentrate its
force in a descent upon the tower,
which yielded with a crash, and car
rying down the heavy bell, plunged
throturh the intervenim? floor to the
basement The main building is
mass of ruins within shattered walls,
which still stand. The winjr was
comparitivelT uniniured. and the
scholars in there were unhurt
In the main building, however, the
effect wag awfuL The falling floors
nrecinitated the terrified children to
the basement, where masses of bricks
and beams crushed them to the
Ground and buried them from view.
Persons hearing the crash made their
way as best they could, against the
beating storm, to the scene. The
gale quickly subsided, and the work
of rescuing was undertaken by eager
hands. Owing to the prevailing ex
citement the first work was not very
effective, but the fire department and
Dolice scon arrived and an org-aniza
ed search was commenced. The dead
and wounded were taken out as quick
ly as possible and carried to the Nat-
atorium adjoining, which was turneu
into a hospital Here the parents
and friends of the little ones soon
gathered, each searching for hia or
her own, and uttering heart-rending
cries as they recognized in the maim
ed and bleeding forms those whom
they loved. Among the first taken
out several were dead and one or two
mangled almost beyond recognition,
their clothes being torn and their bod
ies covered with dust and mortar.
The deathly pallor of the skin show
ing in painiui contrast against grime
and blood stains. Jlany heroic scenes
were enacted during the rescue, and
of the wounded children, some of
them seemed to have greater control
than their elders. One little girl,
half buried in the debris, over whom
rescuers were busy, begged them to
leave her and help a boy beside her,
because, she said, he was only five
years old. The scenes in the Natato
rium as the little ones were brought
in and laid upon improvised cots, the
dead placed together upon one side,
were pittiful bevond expression. A
dozen dead were taken out during the
day and the bodies sent to the houses
of sorrowing families, beveral of the
children be.onged to prominent fami
lies in the city.
At 110 west Third street stood s
three-story brick building, in the mid
die of the block, the third floor of
which was used as an over-all factory,
conducted by Haar Brothers. The
first and second floors were occupied
by the Graham Paper Company. In
the factory were about twenty five
employes, chiefly girls. They, when
the storm broke out started for the
cellar. The building fell with a crash
being razed entirely to the earth,
and hve oi tne alinghted girls were
caught in the ruins. Six have been
taken out dead. A number of others
were injured.
The County Court House stands at
Second and Main streets, on the hill.
exposed to winds from the north and
west. The building was erected near
ly twenty years ago for hotel purpos
es, but when complete was purchased
by the county for two hundred thou
saua aoiiars ana converted into a
court house. The buildin? has al
ways been considered rather unsatis
factory, and the roof has frequently
suffered injury from high winds. The
storm etrucK tue northwest corner
to-day, blowing in the roof and the
major portion of the walls of the
third and fourth stories. The wall of
the east end was blown into the
street and Deputy Sheriff Dougherty
was caught and killed. AH others
succeeded in getting out of the build
ing alive. The jail is located in the
basement of the building, and that
portion escaped injury. The priso
ners were intensely alarmed, but be
came quiet when the crisis passed
and they found themselves unhurt.
Judge Stover had been holding court
on the third floor, and had adjourned
just before the 6 tor in descended. A
portion of the roof in falling struck
the chair the Judge had just vacated.
Across the street on the north west
corner of Second and Main streets.
stood a two story brick building.
erected in 18C0 by the Santa Fe Stijje
Company, one of the oldest buildings
in the city, from which the stages
formerly were started across the
plains in stage-coaching days.
The building has of late years been
occupied by the United States Engi
neers. Adjoining that on the west
was a three-story brick coffee and
spice mill, owned by Smith &Moffatt
This building was demolished, falling
over upon the adjoining one, and
both were completely wreck. Frank
Smith, the senior paitner of the firm,
was taken out bleeding from the ru
ins, and died in a short time. Mr.
Moffatt was badly hurt and three
employes were taken out The de-
-1- -B . .
oris is uemg removed to night in
search for any one who may yet be
buried beneath.
The second span from the north
end of the bridge across the Missou
ri, opposite the city, was blown into
the river, the piers being left appar
ently uninjured. A great number of
telegraph wires were carried down
with the broken span.
Aiany Duiidings were damaged in
other towns in Kansas.
The storm destroyed a great deal
of property, houses and barns, in
Missouri On the same day a storm
destroyed buildings and fences and
up rooted trees in many places in Il
linois and Indiana.
About 9 o'clock on the 13th inst,
at Xenia, Ohio, an extraordinary
clap of thunder seemed to open the
gates and the rain fell in torrents.
The people living in houses on Wat
er street escaped by every way. The
spout seemed to vent its fury on
that portion of the city. For a stretch
of 150 yards the Little Miami Sail-
way is swept away. The spout struck
the houses on Water street and tore
them to pieces as if they were shells.
A resident of the street stf that
within two minutes after the clap of
thunder he stood in water to his
waist he being about twenty-five
varus irom the creek. When the wa
ters reached the residence of Aaron
Ferguson it was swept away with
nine inmates and lodged against a
bridge, where they were afterward
rescued.
The next damage was at the coal
yard of Samuel Clark, in which was
located a tenema.it honso ATI i Ann
pied by a family named Powell, nine
in number. The next point of de
struction was in what ia known as
the bottoms. A dozen houses, occu
pied mostly by colored people, were
here swept away. , Dozens of horses
were lost and railroad leading' out
of the city were swept away. .
One family by the name of Morris
was swept away. The last of them
was at the Miami street bridge, when
a tnau was seen at the window by
the terror-stricken crowd waving a
ligbteoflamp. The next instant the
boose collapsed and they weie gone.
Thirty six people lost their lives.
The loss of property is great
whole lumber yards and all bridges
gone completely. The scenes in the
devastated district are indescribable.
All kinds of crops are totally ruined.
The greatest destruction is in a track
east from the Big Miami to the Lit
tie Miami.
Zionville Reform Church, four
miles south of Dayton, was razed.
The church at Beavertown, where
prayer-meeting was in progress, was

Ex Governor Curtln.
Washington, D. C May 13. A
nice little story is told in connection
with Governor Curtin's connection
with the present investigation into
the causes of the recent strike on the
Southwestern railway system. The
venerable gentleman from Pennsylva
nia, so the report goes, is anxious to
be again at the helm of ship of state
at Harrisburg, and has for some time
been coquetting with Powderly and
the other influential men in the
Knights of Labor organization in or
der to get their assistance in the can
vass. Another gentleman who is
mentioned in connection with the po
litical movement, which it is said the
Knights propose to inaugurate, is
Representative Brumm, who has been
active of late in making himself par
ticularly agreeable to the working
men a organizations. He wants to
come back to Congress on the Green
back or any other ticket and does not
mind giving his friend Curtin a little
boost wherever he can, so long as he
aids his own cause at the same time'
Hydrophobia Purely Imaginary.
A Baltimore doctor, in writing of
hydrophobia, says : I don't believe in
Pasteur's inoculation theory because
I don't believe in hydrophobia. It
is in my opinion an imaginary dis
ease, and I defy anybody to produce
a well-authenticated instance of
where hydrophobia attacked an in
fant bitten by a rabid dog. It needs
a good, vivid imagination as an ad
junct of the disease. Some years ago
a man came to me for cauterization
of what he claimed was the bite of a
mad dog. It did not look to me like
a wound made by teeth, but I cau
terized it to satisfy him. A month
afterwards that man died with all
the symptoms of hydrophobia as de
scribed by standard authorities. Af
ter his death it was established con
clusively that the wound was made
by a nail in a fence that he had
climbed to get away from the dog,
and also that the animal was very
old and only had three teeth those

What Work Is.
I was ridiDg up town in a Third
Avenue car the other day when a
butcher's boy, a lad some fourteeu
years of age, in a hickory shirt and
with a battered Derby hat on the
back of his head, stepped airily upon
the back platform and hung his bas
ket on the handle of the braka He
had sandy hair cut close to his head.
He was very much freckled, his eyes
were pale blue, but keen in their ex
pression, and Lis nose was of the
genus pug. He' was smoking a cig
arette. For some time he shared the
privileges of the platform alone with
the conductor, who began talking to
the boy about the wrongs of conduc
tors and their right to strike.
"What are you givin' usT" said the
boy ; "yer call it hard work to stand
out here on the platform and yank a
bell? When you ain't doing that
you are inside taking fares, and
knockin' 'em down too. That ain't
no work. Jest you begin at 4 o'clock
in the morning, like me. Open the
shop, sweep it out clean ice-col J fish
out of the refrigerator, and never get
no chance to warm yourself ; then
lug big baskets of meat up to the
top of flats all day long, aud be cuss
ed by the boss because you don't
move round faster. That's work. '
Yon fellows have struck it soft yon
have. You can't talk to ma -1 ain't
no greenhorn." And he jumped off
the car and went down the street
whistling "The flowers that bloom
in the spring." PhiL Record
Herr Most Arrested.
From New York paper last week :
Inspector Byrnes, with Detectives
Crowley, Healey, Brunner and Von
Gerichten, went to No. 198 Allen
street about 10 P. M. It is a large
tenement house. A Mrs. Brown oc
cupies part of it and rents furnished
rooms on the first floor. One of the
occupants of the furnished rooms is
Mrs. Fisher's daughter Lena. When
the Inspector and his men got to the
house everything was dark on this
floor. They then went in without
ringing and asked to see Mrs. Brown.
She presented herself and wanted to
know what was the trouble. They
asked her who was in her rooms. All
she knew about it was that Lena was
there. She had not seen a man go
in. Without hesitation the Inspect
or forced open the door and the men
rushed in. A match was struck and
the woman was seen standing at the
foot of a bed. At the side of the bed
was seen a pair of heavy boots, and
when the Inspector looked under the
bed he saw Most curled np with his
head buried in a pillow.
"Come out," shoutedthe Inspector.
Not a movement was made by the
Anarchist Then his legs were seiz
ed by two detectives and he was pull
ed out. He kicked wildly and shout
ed in German : ,
"Give me lileity."
He fought for a moment, but when
the fingers of the Inspector tighten
ed around bis throat he became quiet.
He was only partly dressed and was
ordered to put on his clothes. He
looked tired ; his eyes were blood
shot and his voice husky. When
dressed he sat down on the edge of
the bed and asked in a defiant man
ner:
"Why am I arrested f
Inspector Byrnes told him that he
had a warrant which called for his
arrest
"Oh, I suppose it is all on account
of that speech I made over to tier
mania Hall. Down with such a coun
try. I thought this was a free land,
where free speech was tolerated.
But it's only free speech when sweet
things are said. When the truth is
told then a man is arrested. I
swear "
At this point he was told in plain
and forcible language to "shut up"
and come along. The noise in the
house had attracted the attention of
the other tenants and they were all
np and crowded into the halls.
Thinking that perhaps Most had
some friends in the house who might
make trouble, all further parleying
was stopped andjMost, defiant, shout
ing and cursing, was hustled into the
street at a lively gait He was walk
ed rapidly to Police Headquarters,
and his pedigree was taken. He
gave his name as John Most, age for
ty, home in Germany, but refused to
state where he had lived in this city
or how long he had been at No. 198
Allen street He said that he had
been in prison twice. Once in Ber
lin and once in London. The crime
he was charged with was his devotion
to liberty. In the Inspector's room
he started to deliver a lecture upon
the rights of man and the duty of
protecting an honest man by the po
lice instead of treating him as he
was being treated. "Lock him np,
said the Inspector. The harangue
was cut short and in a moment he
was looking through the bars and
swearing vengeance against the po
lice. In the room where Most was found
were several books on dynamite, the
manufacture of bombs, the manage
ment of prisons, and the lives of no
ted Anarchists and notorious mur
derers. In one corner of the room
were a Winchester rifle, a revolver,
an empty bomb and a heavy loaded
club. Most's face was covered with
a shaggy beard and his expression
villanous.
The indictment against Most
charges him with inciting to riot the
inflammatory speeches having been
delivered in Germania Hall two or
three weeks ago.
