valuable books which will be awarded
as prizes to the three pupils bringing
the highest number of new scholars
during the month ending October 10.

The Democratic Primaries.

Some Silverites who went to Vir.
ginia City to watch the Democratic
primaries, last Thursday, say that
the show was better than a circus.
There were half q dozen tickets
peddled on the start, and new ones
made their appearance every hour,
until the intelligent voter was so con-
fused that he did not know what
ticket to vote, and even those who
got up the tickets finally became so
mixed that they did not know t'other
from which. Anybody that wanted
to could vote, and many sturdy citi-
zens voted as many as six times in
each ward. The result Of such an
election cannot fail Of being salts
factory to the average wire-puller,
however the various contending in.
asrests may have been affected.

PETER McMANUS TO HANG.
The Twenty.First MOllie Mcguire
Convicted of Murder.
From the Philadelphia Times.l

From the Philadelphia Times.l
The trial of Peter McManus, the
Mollie Mcguire, at Sunbury, Pa,
closed on the 18th. The jury re-
tired at 8 o'clock Wednesday even
ing, and after celebrating all night
entered the court room next morn
ing with verdict of guilty of muir
der in the first degree. The court
house was densely packed, and Nc
Manus upon hearing the verdict
was greatly affected. His victim
was Frederick Hesser, a night watch
man at the Hickory Swamp Colliery,
at Coal Run, and he was murdered
December IS, 1875. The cause of
the deed was attributed to the ac-
tive part Hesser had taken five
years ago in the prosecution of Der.
nard Gibbons, who was charged
with and subsequently convicted of
the killing of his brother-in-law.
McManus, at the time of the MUIR
der, was bodymaster of the Mollie
Maguires at Coal Run, and the evil
dence in the case showed that he
connected and participated in the
murder, and Morgan p. Davis swore
that he overheard McManus and
O'Neil admit TO each other that they
were the murderers of Hesser, in a
heading in the mines, sometime af-
ter the deed had been committed.
O'Neil, McManus's accomplish, Is
now in Jail at Sunbury, and upon
hearing the decision Of the jury
Thursday morning tainted in his
cell. 1t is said that he has declared
his intention to the prison officials
Of ''squealing" since he has heard
of the fate of McManus. The latter
is the twenty-first Mollie Mcguire
convicted Of murder IN the coal re-
gion.

BURIED In COAL.
The Fate Of John Rice and the
Miraculous Escape OF His Com
paniOns.
Philadelphia Times, al


A thrilling accident occurred on
Saturday at the William Penn Col
liery, Shenandoah. resulting in the
death OF boy, named John Rice,
and the serious injury of two others.
1t appears that during a temporary
cessation of work in the breaker a
number of the slate pickers amused
themselves by sliding down the tele-
graph, which conveys the coal from
the screen into the big shute. While
playing IN this manner the men un-
der the breaker outside commenced
drawing coal from the shute into the
cars. The boys, unmindful of their
danger, slid down the telegraph into
the coal, and before they had time
to get back out Of the shute the coal
rushed out through the gate into the
cars and buried them completely
A number of other boys observed
their companions disappearing I'M
der the coal and gave the alarm. 1t
was soon discovered that the best
way to rescue them was to continue
emptying the shute until the boys
would appear at the gate below,
through which the coal was rushed
into the cars. Pretty soon young
Rice appeared, but was found to be
lifeless. His two companions came
out through the gates almost at the
same time, and strange as it may
seem, both were alive. They were
unconscious, however, and were re-
suseitated by the application of wa
ter. The affair caused intense ex.
citement in the village, and while
the coal was being drawn hundreds
of people fiocked around the break
er, some crying and screaming in a
heartrending manner.
