a POWDER MAGAZINE N ENGLAND ExPIon-
ED BY LIGHTHIXG.-The Manchester Eng.
land) Guardian of August sth has the follow.
ing account of a catastrophe which seems 10
differ only in its results from the explosion
at Pottsyille, Pa. last Saturday afternoon
"A thunderstorm passed over Morley and
district on Tuesday afternoon. The electric
fluid struck powder magazine, containing s
ton of powder, belonging to Messrs. Haigh
Sons, Victoria Colliery, Bruntcliffe. The
magazine was situate in the middle of field,
400yards from the colliery, in southwestern
direction. The shock was something terrif-
&c, and but for the ineessant rain which pre-
ceeded the explosion, and had the effect OF
stopping all traffic in the vicinity, many lives,
1t Is thought, must have been lost. A field
of oats was completely destroyed, being laid
to the ground as well as scorched. At the
pit man, named William Haigh, was struck
with a brick aud hurled into an adjoining
coal screen. The man in the engine-house
was fearfully frightened by the engine house
window squares being blown in. At that
moment he had drawn four men up. They
had just risen in sight when the explosion
took place. The engine-man shut the steam
off and ran out of the engine-house The
four men managed to escape alive, but tbs
cage was fearfnily damaged amongst the head
gear. Two girls, named Ainley and Nose
ley, who were playing about, we're dreadfully
injured. The property in the vicinity, al
though 400 yards away, had most of the win
dows smashed and was otherwise injured.

The National areenbaok Labor Party.

The National Greenback Labor Party
seems to be dying from too vigorous cul-
ture. Kearney, the illiterate blasphemer.
started a labor movement in California.
but his field beirtg too small for him he
sought pastures Esw in the east, and be-
gan his work in New England, the land of
isms and heresies. There he found a num-
Der of other political movements on foot,
with as many captivating titles, and with
the leading lights of each he has endeav-
ored to form combination, known as the
National Greenback Labor Party. No
two of the leaders agree on any subject,
yet assume to believe that the overthrow of
both the Democratic and Republican parties
is essential to the peace, prosperity and
happiness of the country. The object Of
these leaders, however, is self aggrandize-
ment and selfelevation. They are disap-
pointed place seekers in both of the two
great parties, and hope by adj hop'iaenl
arguments to realize their anticipations.
The movement, though, is already exhibit
ting signs Of dissolution. Interest, by rea-
son of the advocacy Of so many conflicting
doctrines, is tagging, and the public meet
ings which numbered thousands of attend
ants, now attract but few hundreds. In
fact, many intended to be mammoth dem
Onstrations, have proved to be total fail
ures. Such, however, has been the history
ofall political movements without any solid
underlying principles and led by wild spec
ulators and illiterate demagogues. When
the excitement has gained its highest pitch,
the leaders are invariably superseded by
others, who always outstrip them in zeal
and go a step in advance in doctrine
The leaders sow, others come in and
water, and by harvest time behold there
stands in the garden a stroag and lusty
flower not looked for. The originators,
Win IuelE lnuHueT stOieu anu their Occu-
patton gone, become dissatisfied and aban-
don the movement, and with the rapidity
of its growth its dissolution follows.
We rejoice at rather than regret. these
spasmodic uprisings. The principles ad-
vOcated, if principles they can be called,
cannot stand the force of reason and bear
comparison with the great principles of
Democracy. When brought face to face
with them, they only serve to show the
fallacy of the one and the soundness of the
other. The greatest good to the greatest
number, equal rights under the laws, a
sound currency, tariff for revenue only,
honesty and efficiency in public servants,
the supremacy of civil over military rule,
State sovereignty and economy in the ad-
ministration of the government, the prin-
ciples advocated by the Democratic party,
can bear all tests, and agitation only deep
er grounds them in the minds of the
public.

The demand for American grain seems
to be stronger, both in England aud on the
continent of Europe, than it was supposed
it would be after the close of the bout be-
tween the Turks and the Russians. The
great stores of Russian wheat shut up at
Odessa aud other ports on the Black Sea
while the war lasted were considerably
damaged, and cargoes despatched to Lon
don are arriving there in heated, unsal-
able condition. For the present, at least,
Odessa wheat is not likely to be eagerly
sought at the highest prices by buyers in
western Europe. According to the Mark
Lane Express, the American product just
now has the upper hand Of the Muscovite
in the London market.

\ HoRsE's FEET RoAsTED.-The Prescott,

Fewell, the mail carrier between Prescott and
and Winkenburg, on his trip during the early
part of the week, left the latter place about
the middle Of the day, when the thermometer
stood 1902 in the shade, and in the sun at a
heat beyond the capacity of thermometer to
indicate, his course being over the Walnut
Grove trail, which follows sandy wash sew
eral miles.
Before passing from the wash, with It's
scorchiug sand, he noticed that his horse be-
came FESTIVE and apparently in much pain.
Upon making his exit from the sandy wash,
and finding a large tree that offered a pleas
ant shade, Mr.. Jewell concluded to rest his
painting steed and examine, if possible, into
the cause of the animal distress. The horse
would first raise one foot and then another,
giving the rider to understand that something
was wrong with his feet, when he made an
examination and found the flesh around the
upper part OF the hoof thoroughly roasted and
the hoof ready 20 drop off.
The animal IN few minutes was suable TO
stand, and the mail carrier was compelled TO
shoulder the mail, abandon his noble charger.

Stanley Matthews isn't out of the scrape
yet. On Monday, by a unanimous vote,
the Potter Committee decided to report
him to the House as a contumacious
witness. When Congress reassembIes the
question of privilege will have to be met,
and a decision adverse to SANKEY'S stilted
pretentiOns may be anticipated. That
question ought to be definitely settled be-

On the one hand it is claimed that the

rection given to the testimony indicates
Gen. Buffers purpose to move 10 the i'm
parchment of Hayes, on the ground that
he has used his Office to repay previously
incurred obligations. For what he did
before he secured his place it is claimed
he cannot be impeached, but when ante
Tior promises are linked with subsequent
payments, the latter become proper sub
jeets for impeachment. Corroborative ev-

appointments he has made of the guilty
