v The river Danube has figured largely
in history for 1000 years, and it again
becomes the object to which the eyes of
the world are turned. 1t furnished a
Highway for the Turks in the sixteenth
and seventeenth centuries to penetrate
Eurppe as far as Vienna, and in the days
of the Crusades it became an outlet for
the religious enthusiasm of Europe to
flow to the Holy Land. The Danube,
from its source in Baden tC the Black
Sea, is 1920 miles long, and it Grains
with its tributaries, an area of over 300
900 square miles. 1t passes through Ba-
varia, Austria, Hungary, forms the boun-
dairy between Hungary and Servia to the
mountains, where it sepa-
rates Roumania and Bulgaria, and pass
es into the Black Sea through several
the principal one being that of
sulins,, The Danube is navigable for
steamers as far as Ulmin Bavaria. bAt
in the fourteenth century, 100-i
900 Christians were driven by the Turks
into the Danube, and in the fifteenth
century 10000 Turks were slain on its
shores at the siege Of Belgrade. a3h''21 roi

DEBTS FROM EASTERN CAPITA
LISTS, e.... ....

DENVER Col May 16.-A serious out.
break among the miners in Gala Gulch,
near Gre City, Colorado, is reported. The
report say the riot arose from failure of
w. II. Stevens and other Detroit Capital
lists to meet the demands of the miners
for pay due them. The miners seized
Stevens and two others named Wood and
Northrup, and put them under strong
guard. They demanded of Stevens a
check for two thousand dollars or enough
to take the entire body of eighty-fve
home to Detroit. Stevens issued a check
which a detachment of men took to the
bank at Fairplay with Stevens clerk.
The bank paid the check, and a second
check for the game amount was forced
from Stevens. Subsequently programe
for lynching Stevens was prepared and
its execution announced for last Sunday,
A later report says it was delayed until
Monday night, the 18th inst, but the cur
rent belief is that no further violence has
or will be done. Nearly all engaged in
the riot are from Detroit, Michigan, and
at present it is impossible to determine
who are responsible for the riot.

d A LADY, closely yelled, hired, not long
ago, in the suburbs of Duna, Russian
city on the river Dunaberg, carriage,
and dumping box securely corded,
into the vehicle, ordered the driver to
stop at shop where, as she said, she
had to make some purchases. The
driver stopped and waited, but the lady
did not return. Then he asked the shop>
keeper to allow HIM to leave the box.
Permission was denied, but on consulta~
ton, the box was opened by the two men,
when the body Of dead infant was exS
posed. The driver did not know what
to do, fearing that he would be arrested
for murder, The shopkeeper advised
him to put the box back in the carriage,
drive to the market place, and leave it
while he ate dinner, in the
expectation that some one would steal
the box. The driver took the hint, and
the box disappeared. Neither lady nor
dead body has since been heard of. y

NINETEEN years ago the Pacific hotel,
St, Louis, was burned, and thirty i'm
mates lost their lives. 1t was supposed
that the fire was started purposely, by
robbers, who plundered the rooms dur
ing the excitement. Another theory
was that it was set to hide murder. The
body Of a guest was found bearing
wounds that apparently had caused his
death previous to the conhagration, and
a notorious thief was arrested on suspiN
cion but an investigation failed to bring
out evidence sufficient to convict. In.
terest in the disaster is revived by let>
ter to the St. Louis Republican, written
BY a convict in the Indiana State prison,
to explain the origin of the
hre. He says that the incendiary was a
desperate known as Raleigh Bill, now
dead, whose motive for the crime was
the chance that it gave for robbing the
guests. OF course the object Of this real
or pretended revelation may be to gain
a release from prison, but the story is
probable, and is to be officially investip
gated, i.W hH sI.luI lua. IHHHI ID

In the process of usurPauon,
the fabrication OF electoral votes
amounts 10 nothing unless they
can be coVuted by the tribunal whose
constitutional duty is to verify and anthem
ticate them. That inexorabIe necessity has
given birth to new device for counting the

vice Is for the president OF the senate 70
usurp the power of determining what votes
shall be counted, and what shall not be
counted, to exercise that power In disregard
of the orders of the two houses. 1t would
not be credible that so monstrous claim as
this could be seriously asserted, If the
leading senators had not publicly ayowed
