General Miles' plan to capture tho Philippines with 0,000 soldiers was not as good as Merritt's with 20,000, in view of subsequent events In those islands. Admiral Dewey, in terms that would do credit to an old diplomat, declines to be made a catspaw of by the Democracy. He Is a Republican, and says so. Before starting a new daily nws paper in Pottsville, the projectors should ask permission to inspect the books of some sheets that are com pelled to resort to blackguardism to make their papers sell. While two sets of Democratic leaders are quarreling over the details of $10 and $1 banquets for a few, the Republican party goes straight ahead Avith the work of spreading a better dinner table than was ever known in history for the whole 75,000,000 of the nation's population. It is doing this by multiplying industries and avenues of employment, increasing wages, piloting the way to larger exchanges of American manufactures for foreign products, which make the table as well as the home attractive.

The city is pumping three times as much water as it is using ; in other words, for every gallon pumped and usefully employed there are two gal lons pumped and run off into the sewers without having performed any useful function. With the waste out off the pumps can easily furnish the remainder, and the water will be par tially cleriQed in the reseryoirs." Denti r r.x-Wi-iuitoi- Tnlior. Denver, April 11. Hon. H. A. W. Tabor, postmaBter of this city and ex Unlted States senator, died yesterday of appendicitis, after three day's ill ness. Mr. Tabor was born In Vermont, Nov. 2C, 1830. He migrated to Kan sas In 1855, where ho served a term In the legislature. In 18C0 he engaged In placier mining In California Gulch (now Leadville), and quIcKly became the richest man In Colorado. In 1880 he was elected lieutenant governor. When Senator Teller entered President Arthur's cabinet Mr. Tabor was ap pointed as United States senator to fill the unexpired term of 30 days. H5 was a candidate for the long term as senator, but was defeated by one vote. In 1898 Mr. Tabor was appointed post master of Denver. He had lost his wealth through unfortunate Investments. The Governor Is Wrong. Governor Rollins, of New Hamp shire, takes a surprisingly pessimis tic stand in a proclamation just issued to the people of his state, when he notes as a marked feature of the times the decline of the Christian religion, particularly in rural communities. It had been believed that the tend enoy was just the other way. Cer tainly the church has never seemed to be more active or more in touch with the general affairs of the world than at the present time. With the vari ous Christian leagues, the Christian Endeavor Societies, the Young Men's and Young Women's Christian Associations, the Salvation Army and the American Volunteers, not to men tion the many other religious and semi-religious organizations working earnestly In the cause of religion and humanity, there seemed to be good reason for believing that Christianity was not retrograding, nor even stand ing still, but going steadily forward Only by the results which these workers achieve can we judge of the situation, and the perceptible changes for the better which aro being made dally in tlia condition of the poor cer tainly does not argue in favor of Governor Rollins' proposition. Our churches are not decreasing in num ber, nor are their congregations dwindling. Among the masses there is no lack of eyidence that the utmost reverence is still paid to the Creator, and in everv walk of life the spirit of confidence in and dependence upon the Supreme Being is still a dominant trait of the American people. Why there should be a decline of Christianity in the rural communi ties, where there is less temptation than in the large cities, and where the incentive for an upright Christian life is always strongest, it is itn possible to conceive.

Parish. Governor Tanner has declared the city under martial law;. Henry Stephens, a negro minor, who has long been considered a leader among his associates, Is declared to havo been tho direct cause of tho riot. It Is said be was also the leader of the riot that occurred last Septomber. Stephens has long cherished hatred for Sheriff Downey, and has openly made throats that ho would kill him on sight. Sunday he was on the streets with a rovolver, saying ho was looking for Sheriff Downey. He con tinued this yesterday, and Sheriff Downey came upon him on Locust street. The sheriff commanded Ste phens to deliver the revolver and told him he was under arrest for carrying concealed weapons. Stephens, with out a word, Instantly leveled bis weapon and fired at the sheriff. Tho bullet went wild. Tho sheriff Im mediately opened Are on tho negro. Deputy Sheriff Cheney, hearing the shooting, rushed to join Sheriff Downey. Stephens took to his heels and suc ceeded In gaining Penwell's general store on Locust street, the principal thoroughfaro, two blocks distant, and took bis stand In the entrance. Ho hesitated there an Instant, and then stepped to the pavement, leveled his revolver down the street toward hU approaching pursuer, and fired. The bullet missed the deputy and struck Xavler Lecoq, a Frenchman, who was standing In the entrance of a nearby saloon, squarely In the forehead, kill ing him Instantly. Stephens than turned and ran Into the Penwell store and sought refuge behind a counter. By this time the streets wore rapidly filling with men, all of whom bora weapons. Deputy Cheney dashed into the store, followed by Deputy Joe Mul len and several citizens. A fusillade of bullets was poured Into tho store, and Stephens emptied his revolver at his assailants from behind the counter. The Infuriated crowd at tho door continued firing, and Stephens, seeing that death was Inevitable, made a des perate dash from his cover to a stair way In the rear 01 the store. Ho fell, pierced by six bullets, before bo had gone ten feet. One of tho pullets had gone through his neck, another through his back, and the other wounds wero of a minor nature. The firing stopped Instantly, and Sheriff Downey ran to the side of the wounded negro and placed him under arrest. Stephens is a negro of robust constitution, big and brawny. The shock of his numerous wounds did not apparently hurt blm, for he swore and said to the deputy, I surrender," and with blood pouring down his olothing walked with his captor to a physician's office, where he was given medical attendance. He was then taken to Jail. Meanwhile the riot was raging In the street. As soon as the first shot had been fired the whistle of the electric light plant was blown as a signal for tho citizens, the majority of whom had long ago been sworn as deputies, to turn out armed and ready to fight. At the same time the miners of tho Pana and Penwell mines, which are lo cated about two blocks distant from the Penwell store, which Is the center of tho town, rushed Into the tipples and opened fire on the thronged streets. The news that stepnens, one 01 their number, had been shot and arrested aroused them to a pitch of fury. They shot at any living mark In sight, and as a result among their victims are three women, two of whom are white women wounded and one negro wo man dead. ... iiiniiiiiiinirniiMniifinwi mrrwuioi r'ii'i''''"'"''''"w''MM'' ""'' t The Blues THE CUBAN MUSTER ROLLS Handed Over to the Am or loan Mill- tnry Authorities Today. Havana, April 11. The military au tborltles today received the Cuban army muster rolls, which have been held by tho so-called 'exocutive com mittee appointed by the Jate military assembly before its dissolution, with General Gomez as the army s repre sentative to be dealt with In the mat ter of payment and discharging, and with the rolls In their possession, tho Americans will now be In a position to push forward energetically, which they are fully prepared to do. Clerks, employed several weeks ago, have been waiting at headquarters at 121 Vadado to copy and compare the rolls. Doubtless thoro will be considerable criticism among the Cubans when It Is announced that tho United States Is fully resolved not 10 make any pay ments to former soldiers now In civil employmont and to eliminate also all who enlisted after July 17 last. Tho widows of Cuban officers have pre sented an address to the military au tborltles asking what they must do to obtain their share of the disbursement, Drink Oraln-0 after you have concluded that you ought not to drink coffee.
