THORNE. FOR CORONER, JOHN L. JONES. THE articles that appeared in the "Ea gle" of last week, attacking Thomas W. Phillips for not helping Dr. Showalter to secure the nomination for Congress in this district are most truly amusing, when you know all the facts. Dr. Showalter had no right to expect any help from Mr. Phillips,and we doubt if he did expect any, for during the can vass his associations in Lawrence count} were with the political enemies of Mr. Phillips; and he and Watson of Mercer county combined against Phillips, who, they thought was the man they had to beat. On the other hand, Mr. Phillips owes the politicians of Butler county nothing. In 1890 he was hunted up by Quay and used by him to defeat McDowell. That put Quay under obligations to Phillips, and Black and the other candidates for Congress in the district were stood aside to give Phillips two terms. This year Black was kicked out of the game en tirely to make room for Quay s youthful relative; and Showalter has been deceiv ed by men who pretended to be for liitu. He canvassed this county as the Qua' candidate and if he has been "betrayed, it has been by bis pretended friends. We are of opinion that he can find some of them much nearer home than New Cas tle. The purpose of these extraordinary at tacks on Mr. Phillips is to head off his growing popularity in this county, for he is the best representative this district has yet had in Congress. He is a man of brains and character, as well as wealth, he has been honorable in his dealings with the people of this county, and it is his chance for future political preferment that is bothering scheming politicians here. The articles in last week's "Eagle," entitled "Congressional," and "Exit Thomas W. Phillips," are false and ma licious from l>eginning to end. AT the Prohibition National Conven tion in Pittsburg, Thursday, Joshua Lev ering, a' merchant of Baltimore, was nominated for President; Hale Johnson of Illinois, was nominated for Vice-Presi dent. During the day the "Narrows" had complete control of the convention, and voted down Female Suffrage and Free Silver, and towards evening adopted at: entirely new platform, as follows: "The Prohibition party, in National Convention assembled, declares its firm conviction that the manufacture, export ation, importation and sale of alcoholic beverages has produced such social, com mercial, industrial and political wrongs, and is now so threatening the perpetuity of all our social and political institutions that the suppression of the same by a national party, organized therefor, is the greatest object to be accomplished by the TOters of our country, and is of such im portance as that it of right ought to con trol the political action of all our patriotic citizens until such suppression js accom plished. The urgency of this cause demands the union, without further delay, of all citi zens who desire the prohibition of the li quor traffic. Therefore, Be it resolved, that we favor the legal prohibition, by State and Na tional legislation, of the manufacture, im portation, exportation, inter-State trans portation and sale of alcoholic beverages. That we declare our purpose to organ ize, and invite all the friends of prohibi tion into our party, and in order to ac complish this end we declare it but right to leave every Prohibitionist the freedom of his own conscience upon all other poli tical questions, and trust our representa tives to take legislative action upon other political questions as the changes occa sioned by prohibition, and the welfare of the whole people shall demand." Then came the nominations, resulting in the success oi Levering and Johnson, and then some of the "Broads" led by St John and Mrs. Cougar, bolted the con vention and assembled in the dancing hall at 67 Fourth ave, and organized a new party, with a silver spoon in its mouth and skirts around it, and nomina ted C. E. Bentley of Nebraska, for Presi dent, and T H. Southgate of North Caro lina for Vice President. The delegate from Butler county voted with the "Narrows," but the sentiment of the majority o'f the Prohib leaders here is with the "Broads." HARRIS VILLK HITS.

Juno. ■» ru Republican, Tuesday, the Legislature will lie overwhelmingly Republican, and John JJ. Mitchell will probably be returned to the U. H. Senate. St. John and hjs Minstrels. On Saturday eveuir'j, iast an organ was ' placedjon the fror.fsteps o? the Courtllou ■< four young men ranged themselves side it, and their singing at.d playing soon attracted a crowd. The young men sang funny songs of a Prohibition tend ency, and the object of their performance was to advertise a concert, anil lectured on Christian citizenship, in the Opera House for next afternoon The concert was repeated and enlarged upon in the Opera House, Sunday aft er noon, and one of the young men, named Howe, made some excellent remarks on social purity, and advertised John P. St. John's lecture or speech for the next evening Monday evening came around, the Op-ia House was crowded, the minstrel troupe made lets of fun, and then S:. John was again introduce! to a Butler audience. 'He began by giving the reasons why some 300 delegates to the late Prohb: tion convention in Pittsburg, bolted the convention and organized the new party they call the "National" Tarty, which stands for female suffrage and free silver as well as prohibition; and the mem! e-s c.' which are not satisfied with the single issue platform adopted by the Prohibition con vention by a majority of but 3S vote?. He talked for a while on prohibition and the liquor business and female suffrage and then landed on Lis great subject ot finance and made tile best free silver ■ speech we have yet listened to. The adoption of the gold standard 1 > our government in 1873 is, in h.s opinion, the cause of all the evils this Nation is subject to—monopolies, pauperism, mortgages, etc.—and a change to the silver standard would be a sovereign remedy, but that however is something that neither he nor any man on earth can demonstrate as it would be an ex periment from the beginning. The gold standard has been adopted by all the civilized nations of the earth 1 including the French, the most inveterate enemy the English lias ■ as a matter of safety and stability. The supply of silver seems to be un limited, anil a standard of it, adopted to day might be worth but halt as much to morrow. The 16 to i ratio now in use is known by eveiybody td"be a fallacy, the real market values are nearer 32 to 1, and are constantly changing, ami you might as well attempt to legislate that one bushel of wheat shall be worth 16 bushels of potatoes as that one grain of gold shall lie worth 16 of silver or vice versa. The Silver standard would cheapen money, inflate prices, and it might make a temporary "boom" or "good times" with the inevitable reaction, and as much trouble getting back to the gold standard as we had getting back to specie pay ments aft ;r the war. When these financial cranks as we now think them) demonstrate that a change in our standard of value will be for the better, and remain so, then will the people vote for it, and not before. Moscow in Mourning The brilliant coronation of the Czar in Moscow, last week, had the saddest of sequels, and Moscow is now in mourning tor thousands of dead, the result of one of the strangest calamities that has ever happened. The number of killed is plac ed • 3,600, the injured at 1,200. Fully 2,000 mutilated and unidentified dead were buried in trenches. Various versions as to the origin of the stampede and crush on the plain are cur rent, but the account to which the most credence is attached is that the wagons laden with the 500,0 c > souvenirs which were to be distributed among tne people were proceeding to the Khodijnskoje plain, followed by a multitude of eager peasants, when the attendants, with a view to pleasing the people, threw a num ber of the souvenirs among tile crowd. There was a wild scramble toward the point where they fell, -and the news spread like wildfire up and down the throngs of expectant peasants, that the distribution had commenced. This re sulted iu a head-long, pellmell rush for the booths where the distribution of sou venirs was to have been made later. The arrangements which it was intended to make to keep the crowds in order during the distribution had not been completed at that early hour, and the force on hand was powerless to stem the tide of the crush of humanity. What added greatly to the gravity 01 the disaster, was the circumstance that those booths were surrounded by ditches. The fore most persons in the oncoming crowd fell prostrate in these ditches. Oth ers stumbled over their bodies and met the-same fate. And so the horror grew. The pressure was so great upon the sides of the Ixxiths from the struggles of the masses of mad humanity, that they gave way and hundreds of people were forced into them through the broken walis, One mounted gendarme near the booths was literally crushed to death, to gether with his rearing and plunging horse. There were no English people nor Amer icans among the victims. Many of those who came for the coronation had already left the city, and, in any event, tourists attended the fete only ill tlio afternoon. Very few of the victims, it is announced, belong to the well to do classes. Nearly all are moujiks or peasants, and a large proportion of the dead are women and children. The Czar and Czarina after attending the requiem mass in the chapel of the Kremlin, paid a visit to the injured sur vivors in the hospitals, passing from cot to cot, and addressing words of sympathy and comfort. Both the imperial pai-i were deeply affected by the scenes of suf fering they witnessed. A judicial injuiry has been opened into the causes of the disaster, and an effort will be made to fix the responsibility. The scene at the celebration of divine service at the cemetery was most impres sive, some 50,cc0 persons being present. The majority of those were seeking miss ing relatives in the mortuary chambers, and their grief and despair was indescri bable. As fast as a body was indentified. a sacred icon ' image) was placed upon the breast. Those Ixxlies which were claimed by relatives or friends were in terred in the church yards of the com munes to which they belong. The uni dentified dead were buried in a common grave. Only about half the bodies recovered were identified and the majority of these are men, though there are many children and several old people, So years old Most of the private graves of the victims have been marked with wooden crosses, placed the're by relatives, and inscribed with texts of Scripture. The people also strewed twigs among the graves. The clothes of the victims were heaped in a huge pile in oue corner ol the ceme tery, and in this the people rumaged all day long seeking lue slightest trace that would afford a clue to the fate of those missing. The bedraggled, torn, blood stained heap of confused taltcis, thiown all together, afford little material for indeutificatiou, even if it had been sys tematically sorted out and the apj>ear ance of the pieces preserved. But after being pulled over a few times by the crowd of searchers, there was no semb lance to tbe original appearance of the garments left. The survivors have the > aguest possible idea of what happened to them or how they escaped. They of! 1 remember a terrible struggle in the ortex of conflicting human muscular energy. Many of them ascribe their e> cape to a direct miracle. It is touching to witness how these poor, ignorant people help to console each other, to dress the 'lead and to care for the chil dren. AT a recent trial of a ifi'X inch rifled cannon, on a target 4.} feet thick, the shot bored a 16X inch hole through 20 inches of compound sfsel and iron plate, 8 inches of wrought iron, 20 feet of oak, 5 feet of gianite, 11 feet of concrete, and finally Imried itself in a 6 foot wall of brick, masonry. The projectile weighed 1,813 pounds, and was fired from one of the new 1 10-tou guns. Washington Notes. : The House Committee on Commerce, 1 | Friday, favorably reported the bill a.i j thoiizing the Bull--'am" Pittsburg Ra I road company to construct a bridge across | the Allegheny river, northeast of the eastern boundary line of Pittsburg. John W. Brown was confirmed a-> J* M. for Butler, at l'rldav's session of the Sen ate. The President s-.'ffered two distinct re buffs .it the hands of Congress Tties-lay. The House passed the river and iiarl»or bill over his veto by the enormous vote of 220 to 60. and the Senate passed the r.utler anti-bond bill by 32 to 25 The bill oi Congressman Thomas W I Phillips, of New Castle. Pa., creating a commission to arbitrate all laijoi tr«u! [■assert the House, Monday afternoon, without a division, and it was evident that sentiment was almost unanimous its favor. The measure was sent to .lie Senate, next day, and referred to the Committee on lalior. of which Mr. Shoup, cf Idaho is chairman. It will in all \ ro bability be reported withiu a few days, and a strong effort made to secure i r . adoption. Several Senators are deeply interested in the measure, and they say that if lime can be secured it will undoubtedly pass. According to the present program, hov, - ever, the ou'look for action on the bill during this session is not encouragixi;.;. The passage over the President s veto of the river and harbor bill will clear tin way for an adjournment, and it is said that even a mutter of such great impor tance as a restrictive immigration meas ure will not be acted upon. The liuller bond resolution was 011 the program for Tuesday. Consideration of the fillet! cheese bill will be resumed, and it is pro bable that this bill will remain before the body until the vetoed appropriation bill is sent over from the House. Senators Gorman, Hale, Cockrell and other leaders said that the Congress would most likelj adjourn on I-ridaj evening, and certainly not later than Sat urday. The Phillips bill, however, will be one of the first matters considered dur ing the December session, and little doubt is expressed of its passage. The ft. Louis Storm. The papers of Friday contained lists of the dead and 1 ujtired by the storm at St. Louis and vicinity. The dead w .11 nui.i ber about 500, and the wouadc' twice that number. The property loss will reach into the millions. The tornado that spent its fury upon the city had no path. The area of its ravage is as wide as it is long. Only the scientific man, with his theories, pre tends to speculate. Whence' it came and where it l>egau its havoc no other man knows. • The wind blew from the south and men hurrying through the streets braced themselves against it. In an instant the cm rent came from the north, and the people were taken off their feet before fhey were aware of the change. Then the darkness of an Egyptian tomb enveloped the city. The artificial lights of the streets and stoves were snuffed out as if by some superhuman power. There was a roar more frightful than that of a thousand cataracts. Crash followed crash. Great buildings creak' .1 and strained, and there could !>e felt the whirl of flying objects that could not l>e seen. Mingled with the crashing of bo,lies of masonry was the cracking of glass, like the snap of musketry amid a bombard ment by great guns. All this within a few minutes, probably no more than sec onds, and then sombre t viliglit and fear ful calm made up the so -ne. And what a scene! Not until next day was tile ex- tent of the calamity apparent. Colonel Wetmore, manager of the Lig gett & Myers tobacco plant, which was destroyed, estimates the entire property damage it <25,000,(XX). which will be, he says, almost a total loss, owing to (.lie lack of cyclone insurance, fuller esti mates range from $15,000,000 to #30,000,- Ixo, but the majority of tliem are el' e t > that make by Colonel Wetmore. There is not a tree nor a building stand ing in Lafayette Park. The wreck of the City Hospital is so surrounded by wreck age* that it is barely possible to reach it. By far the most remarkable freak of the storm was at this many-winged house. About 200 patients were scattered through the wards when the tornado struck it, but, al' hough the entire upper story was cut off clean and one wing razed to the ground, but one inmate was killed. The victim was located in one of the upper stories and was killed by a flying brick. The roof came straight down upon the foundations, nrd thus, after resting upon sound bed castings, enabled the patients to be rescued without serions injury. Th; entire building was rendered useless, and the lotteniig walls will be torn down and a new structure built. Kach body is numbered as it is recover ed, and a description of the remains tak en, together with any property or papers that might lead to identification. This ghastly directory of the dead i* being constantly studied by people in search of missing ones, an:! when they think they have found the description of the missing relative or friend, the lx *ly corresponding to the number of the de scription is shown them. Sometimes an identification is made in this manner, or sometimes the body is recognized before it is removed to the dead house. By far the greatet number of dead however, will go into an "unknown" grave. A B'rti-.day Surprise. Quite a surprise was giveu to Mr and Mrs. George Biiber in Lancaster township, tin memorial day—M iy 30, 1890 —in be half of Mrs. Biebe.r's 59th birthday anni versary. Greatly t i her surprise about 10 o'clock, tbe friends and neighbors began to gather in with well filled baskets, preparation* were made and two tables each 24 feet long, were erected in the barr, l oth well cpreid and filled with the dainties of life. Two hundred and twenty -fIV» people p»r took of *h« dinner, and after ali had been satisfied tbe f dluwii >: seleomiug address arid thanks was given by KHV. G. B i'z in the Geru m Un«su»g*. "Got! wi»ta wen wer neotsr faaMUnaleo far liese e'teru nder deasa ban* fader und matter." Also an excellent address by Rav. If K. 8 ban or. "We should tie cad in place of joyous when our birthday comes as it brings ns uearer our three score years and ten (ho said in parl>, our cgod mother has aluiots reached her three scoro years ai.d ten and as tbe Psalmist says "man that is born of woman shall live but three score years and ten." Also a very touching ad dress by liev. J. A. Beighley "we will all meet again on that great day. not a day f birthday surprise, but of rejoicing.a day the Lord sayeth 'yo must be born again."' At the closing Mr. and Mrs. Bieber were congratnlated by the audience, who wish ed them many more such gatherings and a joyous and Christian life, and He who hears the yoiiDg raven# cry and watches tbem be with them all the rest of their day. Then Rev.J. G. Butz olosed with pra} «ir of thanka that we were all permitted to gather together as on? bon-e --holrt an I im timily in health, streugth and prosperity, also with the of that beautiful German hymn, "N'un Banket Alle Gott." We all returned to our homes feeling tuut it was good for us to meot with a ho»t of our warmest friends, wishing them peace, happiaess aud love, uow and foreverr. Mrs. Bieber wishes to heartily thank her friends l'or their numerous aud costly pres ents which also was a r urprise, until she can return them two-fold, is her greatest desire. Thanks to one and all. OKK PRESENT. WHAT a strange people the Russians are.
