The Tunnel Explosion in Oalifornis.

SAN Francisco, Nov. 10.-It appears
that three explosions occurred. The first
took place at 1850, the second at l1:55
and the third ut 1920 a. m. The men
were changing shifts at the time the ex-
plosion took place. Seventeen China
men have been taken out, all horribly
burned, and twenty -four dead remain in
the tunnel. A Chinaman named All Wo
was taken out burned about the chest
and injured internally. He was found
dead in his cabin an hour afterward,
strangled with silk scarf. The China
men say he hanged himself, but the in
dications are he was strangled by his
friends to put him ont Of his misery.
There is o terrible scene Of suffering in
camp and all around the mouth of the
tunnel.
The sccno Of the disaster is almost on
top of the Santa Cruz mountains, in the
region where cOal oil aboun,ls, and
where boring for wells is actively prose-
cuted. The work will be suspended for
some time to come.

C A PIT OIL A N


HERMAPHRODITE MEETING. 1t was
in the seventh ward last week that the
happy family enthused the natives. Mr..
Andrew B. Booth, followed by Oscar
Berhel and Dnplesis, did the talking
of the occasion. Mr.. Booth astOnisllcd
his listeners by telling them that he had
ceased to be Democrat since the last
few years, for the reason that the Demo
cratic party had not fulfilled it's pledges
to the colored people, and had failed to
give them their rights. He was their
friend, etc, etc. What pity that he
has waited w long before making 1t
known that he was such azealous friend
of the colOred man and brother! II he
is not Democrat, what is he3
Bcrhel said he would never be salts
fed until the Democratic party was
ground under his heel; and Dnplcsis--
well-ratified the whole business.

FL1MsY PRETEXTs.

A Convention, 10 they said, would I've
managed by "the ring" And primary
election was held with the hope Of indu-
cling them to remain in the ranks of the
party.
But they didn't come worth u cent!
When the Parish Committee passed u
resolution authorizing any one to chal-
lcngc voters who were not Democrats,
then 'it was an outrage" as "cvery
man ought to be allowed to vote who
would give pledge to support the tick
ct nominated" They denounced it NJ
a returning board"
And the last concession was made. All
those who desired were permitted to
vote. Men spent money like water and
used every means to nominate their ia
vOritcs. ,1 -
They att dM it,!
But this was not fair. Some Of those
who were cleft proclaimed themselves
defraudcd, though they didn't do it till
the result was known. Everything that
the Democrats could yield to unite the
party and satisfy aspirants was done.
What more could be devised beyond
delivering the Offices to the sore-heads!
Upon such exploded prctcxts rests the
uncallcd-for independent Republican ar
rangemcnt. Can any one deny the truth
fulness of the above!
Withal the 'unho)y alliance will fail,
and its supporters ncvermorc "be rulers

A Little Girls Queer Pet.

Compton Hill has a mild neighbOr-
hood sensation, which has been the talk
for two or three days. There is well
known family living on Rappahannock
Street, where they have fine large res
ideuce and grounds. Some weeks ago
a little girl of the family, a pale, delicate
child, acquired the habit of eating be-
tween meals, a practice generally dis
couraged by prudent housewives, but in
this instance looked upon with favor, as
it was seldom that the girl had had a
very good appetite. Bread and butter
was her staple demand upon the pantry,
and having obtained supply she would
90 off each day to a distant part of the
grounds to dispose of it, the family be-
ing under the impression that she was
off on a picnic by herself. Itturned out
otherwise, however. A few days ago
her brother, boy of about 10, came up
to the house all out of breath eXclaim-
ing, "Look here! See what I've kill
ed" at the same time holding up the
carcass of big snake which he had
dangling over big stick. The other
members of the family were wondering
what KIND OF a snake II was ana whether
it was venomous or not when the little
girl arrived and at once cried out,
"Why, that's my big worm" The
reptile was bulged out at the belly and
had evidently been swallowing some
thing, so they cut it open and found it
well filled out with bread and butter.
The child said she went out and fed it
every day and thought it was the incest
pet she ever had. She cried bitterly on
realizing that it was dead, and would
hardly forgive her brother for what he
had done. She has since received con-
siderable instruction in natural history
and some systematic snake-hunting has
been carried on about those premises.
The snake was of one of the common,
harmless varieties, but had grown to an
unusual size.-St. Louis Republican.

Anecdotes of Actors.

The Baptist Weekly has published of
late some anecdotes of actors, and the
following is an extract from cOmmuni-
cation to that journal:
"A recent number of the Baptist
Weekly speaks of an actor praying for
success in a new piece. | am reminded
of another case resembling this, which
has never been in print, and was told in
confidence by the actor himself, few
weeks before he died. Billy Otis was,
to use Laura Keene's own expression,
the best Lord Dundreary she ever had,
and he repaid her good opinion by a
profound regard which seemed after her
death to pass into reverence for her
memory. 1t was he who, when hardly
more than a mere boy, carried the in
vitation to President Lincoln to attend
the theater on the fatal night of the as
sassination. Before his death, which
occurred not far from four years ago, he
left the stage and gave recitations, re-
peating whole plays and carrying all
the parts alone, as well as giving short
er representations, reproducing even
the manner of Laura keene and other
actresses, without unnatural affectatiOn
and with wonderful power. | have
heard him render Our American
Cousin and when he arrived at this
point he paused and told the story of the
assassination as it was behind the scenes.
When the shot was fired he was in the
act of buttoning Miss Keene's glove as
she was preparing to 90 on the stage in
bridal costume. At first miStaking the
shot she sent request that the carpen-
tiers should not fire pistols during the
acts, and then, when the truth became
known, rushing to the wash-stand, satu-
rated the whole front breadth of her
magnificent bridal dress with water,
which she was wringing out in a vain
attempt to resuscitate the unconscious
victim. On the stage Miss Keene's in
fuence was on the side of good morals
if not religion, and profanity was rigidly
excluded even where in the School for
Scandal the whole point seems to lie in
the word 'damnably,' as uttered by the
deceived and undeceived husband. 1t
was remorselessly stricken out. They
will think badly enough of US ; let us give
them no OCCASION 1t was secret
known only to her that Otis was in the
habit of offering short prayer just be-
fore going upon the stage, such as 20,
Lord, help me through this act!' Some
times he would find himself upon the
stage and his prayer forgotten, when he
would step behind the scenes a moment
and return, upon which she, under
standing where he had been, would say
(aside), God bless you, my boyn Not
long after he confided this secret of his
life to me fatal sickness seized him,
and he went where he knew whether
his prayer had been real utterrance Of
Christian faith or not"

A Georgia Mountain Disappearing in
Singular Manner.

News has been received of the further
sinking of the large mountain in North
Georgia which dropped into suddenly
made chasm some time since. The
mountain, known as TugalO, is an enor-
nous one. 1t is more than two miles
about its base, and is about as high as
Stone Mountain. Some months ago
laundering noise was heard, as if a live
" earthquake had suddenly commenced
operations. A gentleman who was 60
ing by the TugalO Mountain looked to-
ward it, and was amazed to see fully one
third of the enormous mass break loose
from the rest and suddenly vanish into
the earth beneath, carrying with it inn
mense trees, stones, etc. After a few
days the scene was visited, and it was
found that the ground on which about
one third of the mountain was resting
had opened or broken through, and the
mass, thus being left without support,
tumbled into the chasm thus provided
for it. 1t apparently about filled this
chasm to a level with the ground, but
has since been sinking. No one can inn
agine the cause, and fears are entertain
ed that the rest of the mountain must
follow. The side from which the falling
mass was torn is ragged and irregular,
no qualification having been followed in
the tearing loose. The mass has just
let down about two feet further, and the
whole case will be Investigated by COM
petent scientists, who are determined to
probe the secret of the lost mountain.

A VelOcipede that Runs on the Water.

Prof. E. P. Harrington of this city has
invented, completed, and tried satisfac-
torilv a machine which is certainly a
novelty in the way of locOmotiOn. In
appearance on side view it presents
considerable resemblance to bicycle,
but it is intended to run on the water
instead of on land. The wheel is four
feet in diameter and seven inches
through. Near the outer rim are six
teen paddles, similar to those used on
the paddle-wheel Of a steamer. The
interior of the wheel is supplied with
air-chambers for buoyancy, and with
water-chambers for balance. The sad
die is placed further back and lower
than in the improved land-bicycle.
Treadles for the feet are provided, and
these are connected with gearing attach
ed to a crank turned by hand, so that in
propelling the machine either the hands
or feet or both together may be used.
The buoyancy of the wheel is about 400
pounds. Running back of the wheel are
Shafts, connecting, not as in the bicycle
with a smaller wheel, but with two arti-
fetal fish of cedar resting on the water
side by side These fish serve the same
purpose in balancing the machine as the
small wheel does in the bicycle, and also
serve as a rudder to guide the direction

Temperance, Public and Private.

There is not a saloon in Colorado
Springs. Its temperance principles have,
however, greatly injured the city and
retarded its growth, without preventing
the free consumption and sale of liquor.
The drug stores have their back shops
all fixed up for use as bar-roOms, and
do a thriving business out of show bot
ties labeled SO tincture of alcohol" l
met particularly solid advocate of the
temperance policy in one of these places
recently, and having obtained his ac-
quaintance previously, felt free to ask
him if the tincture wasn't imposing on
him. He had stiff glass of whisky and
strip in his hand. Said he; GAS cit
izen l am a temperance man. l believe
in keeping the town clear of liquor sa-
looms. As an individual | admire good
whisky" And l had no doubt of it af-
ter seeing him drink. That's what tenn
perance amounts to here.-ColOradO Cor.
