Another terrible accident took
place Thursday night. A series Of
meetings are being held in st. Ma
vicr Catholic church, for women and
children, under the direction of a
Jesuit missionary, who is wonder
fully moving preacher. lie was
dwelling on the horrors of pergato-
ry and had the congregation of
women-there were twenty-five hun
drSd Of thom-terribly excited.
One woman lost control Of herself,
and shrieking tainted. Some equal
ly frightened woman shrieked fire,
and the mass made a rush for the
| door. The strong trampled re-
morselc.sly over the weak, and
| when the building was finally cleared
it was found that six women and
four or five children had been
trampled TO death. Nobody seems
to be to blame, but it does seem as
though in buildings intended for
such purposes, some provision
should be made for the constantly
occurring accidents.
There j. some hope for New
York. Joe Coburn, the pugilist,
and Democratic politician, dis
charged his little pistol at n police
man few weeks ago, and wounded
him. The law, which men of the
Coburn kidney have heretofore
laughed at, took hold of him, and
Joseph was not only convicted, but
sentenced to ten years in Sing Sing.
Joe Goss, another one of the traitor
nifty, who was concerned in the AL
len prize-fght in Kentucky, and
was employed by the Democracy in
stuffing the ballot boxes in Cincin-
natl, was taken out Of the city on q
raquisition from the Governor OF
kentucky, and he Will languish In
the prison of that State for awhile.
The sky is frightening.

Wary, and give in marriage, just

The President has nominated the
following as members of his Cabi-
net:
Secretary Of State-W. NJ. Evarts, of
New York.
Secretary Of the Treasury-Joln Shcr-
man, Of Ohio.
Secretary of Wsr-Georgc w. Nc
Crazy, of lows.
Secretary Of the Navy-Richard NJ.
Thompson, Of Indiana.
Attorney General-Charles Devens,
of Massachusetts,.
Postmaster Gcncral-David NJ. Key,
of Tennessee.
Secretary Of the Interior - Carl
Schurz, of Missouri.
Some objections are made by
partisans en- both sides, 10 Evarts,
Devens and Schurs; but judging
from all the circumstances, We are
inclined to the belief that the oppo-
sition is based upon desire to con-
troll by Office seekers and "machine
politicians" rather than upon any
valid objections to the men. The
majority Of the people will doubt
less be satisfied with the action Of
President Hayes. They are more
interested in having honest and eff
fcient men in office, with conse-
quent peace and prosperity to the
country, than the selection Of par
ticular politicians and friends of
politicians, who too often are gov
erned in their action by hope of
reward through appointments and
the dictation of appointments. In
making his appointments, we be-
lieve President Hayes was actuatcd
by a noble desire to bring the great
est good to the greatest number,
and to consistently and honestly
carry out the policy indicated in
his letter Of acceptance and inau-
gural address. Ifhe remains firm,
as he now appears likely to DO, ho
will be heartily sustained by ma
jority of the people, and inaugurate
reform" in every way worthy the
name.

EDITOR STAR:-The weather hero
is still mild and pleasant. The
snow is fast settling, and the south
side Of the hills arc getting bare.
No snow in the valleys at the foot
hills, and good feed for stock. Old
mountaiuOors say this has been an
unusually hard Winter, and yet
stock has wintcrcd well here in the
valleys on grass alone. Tie eli
mate is certainly milder than the
same ATTITUDES east Of the Nississ-
ippi.
The prospect ahead is brighten
ing up for the Black Killers. The
[. S. Commissioners have made q
treaty with the Sioux, wherein the
Indians cede the Black Hills and
vicinity to the government. ] en-
close in this q description Of the
boundaries Of the cedsl territory.
We shall now have U. S. mail and
civil law. Nothing hindcrs now the
taking up Of claims Of timber and
farming lands, except the Northern
Sioux, who still refuse to treat with
Uncle Sam. However, five eolnpa-
MES of cavalry are now ca route
from TT. Laramie to the Hills for
our protection. They are to be
stationed about thirty miles north
of here, Gu the North Cheyenne, or
Belle FouYcLe River. 1t is to be
hoped now that faras can be opened
at the foot hills, without much dan
ger of the farmers being scalped.
1t will also, be more safe for gold
prospecting. The ground is not
half looked over here yet. The In
dians made it more dangerous here
last season than about the Dead
wood mines.
Bear Gulch is about 30 miles
wcstwardly frsm Dsadw0od. The
same formation here as about Dead
wood, but the gold here is coarser
and prrer. Rich quartz leads will
undoubtedly be struck here this sea-
son. For placer nining, the great
drawback iy lack Of water. Good
Judges say, and it has been proven
by last years work, that the Black
Hills arc exceedingly rich in the
