Reaping The Whirlwind.
Colorado is just now undergoing some
experience which enforces the necessity of
putting men in high places with sense
enough not to talk unless they have some
thing to say that ought to be said. Color
ado Senators and Congressmen talked loud
ly against any legislation by Congress to
stop tho silver folly. This created distrust
in financial circles outside of Colorado and
doubts as to the soundness of tho financial
institutions of the state by their own de
positors, and the leading banks of Colorado
went down with a crash. Governor Waite
in a public speech, advocated wading in
blood to the bridles of the horses, and 15-
000 of the citizens of Denver engage in a
lynching so brutal in every detail as to
eclipsothe most revolting lynchings of
the South.
The credit of a sovereign state is wreck
ed and its fair fame indelibly stained be
cause those who should have been its wis
est and most sensible citizens turn out to
be blatant demagogues, intemperate in
language and action at a time when every
word spoken by men in authority should
be carefully considered and overy act of
a nature to allay and not inflame public
passion. It is not to be wondered at that
the leading citizens of Denver are alarme d
at the storm that has been raised by pub
lic utterances that should never have been
made and are appealing to the civil and
military authorities of State and nation to
protect them and their property lrom
threatened mob violence.
Tho end of lawlessness directly incited
by the lawless utterances of those charged
with the making and administration of law
has not yet come in Colorado but enough
has been done to serve as a lasting lesson
to the business men and citizens of that
SUte on the necessity of filling high offi
cial places with men sensible enough to
keep their mouths shut when silence is
best, and to speak wisely when speech is
required. The foolish ravings of men like
Governor Waite can do more injury to the
credit, good name and prosperity of a state
than can be remedied by all its wise meu
in a generation.—Phil'a. Times.
MR. HARRITY'S methods of distributing
public place and patronage in this state to
bis adherents, to the exclusion of other
equally hungry Democrats, has proven so
obnoxious to Mr. Perry D- Clark, a prom
inent lawyer and Democrat ot Warren, a
member of the State Democratic executive
committee and division chairman of the
Fourth Division, comprising Meroer, Law
rence, Venango, Crawford, Warren, Erie,
Forest and McKean counties, that he has
tendered his resignation to Chairman
Wright, of the Democratic State commit
tee. Accompanying his resignation is a
vigorous protest, that "Hon. Wm. F. Har
rity is building up a 'machine' in tho Dem.
ocratio party of Pennsylvania that is de
priving the Democratic voters of th is State
of the customary privilege of selecting
their own local federal officials and the
power of controling the actions of their
party and is substituting 'one-man-power'
for the 'rule o( the people.' "
Mr. Harrity's machine will continuo to
grind, however, despite this protest and
resignation, without the slip of a belt or
the missing of a cog.— Ex.
Sherman on Silver.
"What do you think of the appeal of the
miners of Colorado as to free coinage,T"was
asked of Senator Sherman at his home in
Mansfield, 0., a few days ago.
"It is tho strongest presentation that
has yet been made to the Democratic par
ty in favor of it,"replied Senator Sherman.
"What they say is true. If we should re
fuse to purchase their silver, they would
have a limited market for it and the indus
try would for a time be crippled or sus
pended."
"The truth of the matter is," Senator
Sherman went on, "silver has fallen in val
ue, like most other metals, with the im
proved methods of production. We used
to have to pay SIOO a ton for iron rails;
now thoy can be produced for S2O a ton.
Aluminum used to be worth nearly as
much as gold; by the present methods we
can produce it for from 50 cents to $1 a
pound. Nickel has fallen in value, and
silver can bo miued cheaper and reduced
at less expense than it could in the past.
The processes of smelting it with lead ore
are such that the lead sometimes pays the
cost of the reduction, and silver has fallen
in value. It will, if the Sherman act be
repealed, continue to fall and eventually
stand at its market value in the same way
that iron and other non precious metals
stand."
A JURY was impanneled at Springfield,
111., lately, to determine the identity of
the man who claims to bo William Newby,
of White county, who was shot in the head
at the battle of Shiloh and was believed to
have been buried in the trenches by his
comrades. This man has convinced Mrs.
Newby and her four children of his identi
ty. Old friends of Newby believe this to
be the man. He applied for a pension on
account of his services as William Newby,
and was indicted for attempting to obtain
a pension by fraud. The government
olaims that ho is Daniel Benton, well
known in Tennessee. The wife of Daniel
Benton arrived here from Tennessee and
will testify that the defendant is her hus
band aud the lather of her children, aud
not Newby.
Failures.
One-hundred and five National Banks
have already foiled this year, eighty of
which were located in the Western and
Southern States.
A flutter of excitement was created in
Harrisburg, last Thursday, by tho appoint
ment of receivers for the American Tube
and Iron Company, of Middletown, and
the subsequent announcement that the
Harrisburg Rolling Mill Company had shut
down its works, throwing out of employ
ment about 400 employees.
IT calls back the old "bread or bloou"
free trade days to read that "thirty-five
hundred hungry people were fed with
bread, meat and milk" by Denver missions.

The Situation at Bangkok.
A Dispatch gent from Bangkok late Mon
day night Mid that Admiral Humann, now
commanding a squadron of 13 ships had
just given notice that a fresh blockade
would begin Wednesday. He had had the
temerity to direct the British warships
Pallas and Surprise to move outside the
blockade.
Minister Pavie, who it was reported
from Paris had been ordered to return to
Bangkok, had gone to Saigon. It was
learned from the Siamese leatigon in Paris
that France has demanded temporary pos
session of the port of Chataboo% near
Bangkok, as an additional guarantee of tho
fulfillment of all demands.
No reply has yet been made to this last
condition. England, in view of the French
bad faith last week in declaring a blockade
without notifying the powers, is natural!}
suspicious of the present situation. It is
feared that the French naval force will
commit fresh outrages which France will
disavow in one breath while she compli
ments the prepetrators in the next.
The French explanation of Mondays'
events will probably be that the Govern
ment's latest orders had not reached the
French Admiral. It is significant on this
point that a press message filed at Bang
kok at 10 reached London at 9, the differ
ence in time being six hours. The French
promise not to interfere with British com
merce was given 60 hours previously.
These uncertainties led Lord Rosebery
to postpone the statement he intended to
make to Parliment, and he is again devot
ing himself to the situation with the ut
most vigilence. Assurance that the fullest
recognition would be given .to British
rights in the disputed territory above the
eighteenth parallel was received trom
France in answer to Dufferin's protest
against French occupation. It was belie\ -
ed by the French Government that this
assured a peaceful solution of the difficult).
This confidence is no longer felt.
Inquiries at the British Admiralitj
brought the response from the official in
charge that confirmation had been receiv
ed from Bangkok of the report that the
French Admiral had given notice of a fresh
blockade tc begin "Wednesday. It was
added that "there is no question of British
gunboats leaving Bangkok in respose to
French or any other demand.

Can't Live on Tin Roosters.
(Pittsburg Dispatch.)
W. C. Cantlin, of the Illinois Steel Com
pany is at the Dnquesne. He says when
the firm shut down its mills at Joliet a
short sime ago a delegation of workmen
called on C. Pettigrew, the home manager,
i to see how long they would be idle.
'•I am afraid," said Mr. Pettigrew,
"from the present outlook that the works
will be closed all winter."
'-But what will become of us t" the leader
'of the men asked. "We can't starve."
"Oh," replied Mr. Pettigrew with sar
donic humor, "What has become of the
i tin roosters you wore last fall. Can't you
live on them for a while. When you had
a good thing you were not satisfied. Ton
wanted a change and got it. How do you
like it t
Tnocon Siam gave up to France all she
asked for, France is not yet satisfied and
according to the latest reports, has order
ed the blockade of Bangkok.
France will probably nag away at Siam
until England and China interfere, then
Russia will stef in as an ally of France,
and all Europe become embroiled in a war
that will be rough on Europe but a good
thing financially for the United States.

The New York papers are boasting that
a tally-ho coach left that city recently for

with one night's rest of eight hours. The
horses are to be changed every 25 miles.
It is boasted that this is the first coaching
trip to the World's Fair. New York is
not up to date, as Will Davis and Harry
Ross, two Beaver Falls boys, traveled to
Chicago by horse and buggy, covering the
distance in thirteen days with ease through

drop to the floor, breaking his legs. The
child died in a few minutes. Mary, the
eldest daughter, aged 13, was also terribly
maltreated, tho bones ol her right hand
crushed and a gash cut across her face.
ThO second girl, Anna, aged five, was
pounded and kicked almost into insensi
bility and thrown with awful forco against
the wall, her blood flowing in a stream

The fourth child, a boy, was frighttully
beaten and narrowly escaped with his life.

Snake Stories.
The biggest snake yet seen in Western
Penna'a. this season, lives near Coraopolis,
Allegheny Co. A few days ago a coal
digger bearing the old and reliable name
of Thompson was crossing a cornfield on
the A. P. Clever farm in the McCurdy dis
trict. The Clever farm, by the way, is
known to all oil man at least as a remarka
ble productive farm.
Mr. Thompson saw an object which he at
first believed to be a log. Going nearer,
however, ho noticed a sheen reflected by
the rays of the midday suu which did not
accord with his ideas of logs. Thomson
then picked up a "dornick" as he tersely
expressed it, and threw it at the apparent
ly inanimate object.
To quote Thompson: "The darned thing
opened its mouth, took a long breath,
winked both eyes in a sleepy sort of a way,
and started toward me. For a moment, a
short, one at that, I was paralyzed, as some
people say, and then I tried to get off the
earth. Tho only thing in the neighbor
hood better than a balloon ascension,under
the circumstances, was a tram car which
stood at the upper end of the track, and I
knew it was all down hill to Beaver Roads,
on tho Montour Railroad, three miles
away.
I threw a big stone at the approaching
monster which didn't seem to please him.
Then I jumped on tho tram car, gave it a
shove and started do»vn hill. But that
confounded snake was mad. Ho followed
me over those rock-ribbed ties for a mile
and a half, and several times during that
hair-raising ride it was nip and tuck to see
which of us would make the next tie first.
The car in some places left the rail on ono
side,and when I was going around a curve,
but if that snake had not lost a few feet ot
his tail when a youth ho would certainly
have captured me. He was at least sixteen
feet long and as vicious as an Indian on
the warpath when awakened."

Charles S. Massey and his first wife are
still pending in the Stenbenville courts,
and the wife from whom he is seeking leg- *
al separation, it is said, will insist npon
his punishment for marrying again.
It is not definitely known where Massey
and nis wife are at present. Mr. Massey's
father, who lives at 1969 Lytle street, said
that he had no knowledge of his son's sec
ond marriage. He said his son was visit
ing in Cumberland. C. H. Sisley, for
whom the young wife worked, said that
the couple "had gone to Chicago, while Mrs.
Miller an aunt of the girl, at whose home
the marriage was performed, said that the
couple had gone to Cleveland. A telegram
from Stenbenville says:
The Charles S. Massey, of Hazelwood,
whose notice of marriage to Miss Elisabeth
A. Grove of Butler county, appeared in
last Friday's issue of the Times, was a for
mer resident of this city. His father was
Cyrus Massey, who was a prominent con
tractor and builder here for years. He
constructed the city building. There were
three sons, John, Charles and Horatio.
About 10 years ago the skating rink fever
broke out and the Masseys erected a rink,
which the sons managed. John's wife was
an inveterate skater and became so gay
that he sued for divorce, alleging infidelity
and secured his decree.
Not deterred by his brother's ill fated
marriage, Charles became infatuated with
Alice Kells, a daughter of the then leading
brick manufacturer of the city. He paid
her an ardent courting. They inet night
ly at tho skating rink, and Alice always
skated with Charley. He would take her
home, and if the fat her was there, there
would be a scene, because the father
would run Charley away. They were mar
ried. Their troubles began then. They
wero miserably mated, and from the very
beginning had trouble. This continued
until about a yeisr ago, when the Masseys,
becoming involved, sold out their planing
mill here and moved away. Robert Mas
sey, a cousin, appeared upon the scone and
took np with the wife ot Charles. They
attracted some comment, but nothing was
done until last March, when the Masseys
moved to Hazelwood. Charley's wife re
fused to accompany him, but instead went
to Chicago with Robert on April 11.
Charles began snit in court for divorce, al
leging that his wife was guilty of extreme
cruelty in calling him vile names and on
divers occasions had struck him with her
fist, had beaten him on the head with a
chair and otherwise maltreated hiai. His
cousin Robert was named as the corespon
dent. Service npon the wife was had by
publication, the petition alleging that she
was living in Chicago. No further action
was taken, because the case was not ready
for trial at the last term of court, but Mas
sey's attorney had expected thrt issue to
be" tried at the October term, and he was
more surprised than anyone else to learn
ot his marriage.
