The unsophisticated readers Of those In.

the editors of the Vallejo Vengeance and
Petaluma Peapins are bitter aud ferocious
foes. 1t is quite possible that neither Of
these gentlemen would speak to the other
in their respective towns for untold wealth
1t would spoil the effect Of the terrible per-

each issue Of their respective patent in

rustic eye the scene is entirely changed.

washing within the next 8 months. 1t has
formerly been stated that all this would be
accomplished BY Christmas next, but prob
ably the more recent estimate Of time re-
quired is nearer correct. A remarkable ac-
oident occurred In this tunnel the other
day. A blast had been fred OF and two,
Cbinamen shortly after entered for the
purpose Of charging some ether holes in the
vicinity that had previously been drilled,
but left empty. One Of the Cinnamon was
to hold a candle while the other inserted a
charge. Not reappearlng after lapse of
tbree-quarters of An hour, the workmen on
the surface became alarmed, and followed
them In in order to learn the cause of their
long absence. The rescuing party was
greeted by startling sight upon reaching
the breast of tho tunnel. The two China
men lay in an UNCONSCIOUS sta,e close to
the drill holes. Appearance indicated that
they had succumbed to the poisonous fums

remnant Of o burning candle ,aud but few
inches from the candlestick was lot of
powder. He held it with death-grip, and
the flame had gradually crept downward,
roasting the flesh to the bone on the inside
of the thumb and fingers which encompass
sed it. The slightest movement would
have brought the ire in contact with the
powder and caused disastrous explosion.
The victims were hastily conveyed to the
open air, and after considerable effort re-
stored to consciousness. Had they been
permitted to remain in the tunnel few
minutes longer it is believed that both
would: have died, as they were in sinking
condition when discovered.

POETRY
IN THE DARK.
BY CAROLINE LESLIE.

IN THE DARK
BY CAROLINE LESLIE.
Midnight brooded weird and lone;
Nothing broke the wiEtry gloom
Save the drowsy monotone
OF the clock, as, one by one,
From lie steady hands the minu tes fell into my silent
Close beside the larger bed
Stood the cradle in its place:
Mid its blankets, softly spread.
Lay the baby's golden head.
And his light BREATH coming. going, gently famed
against my face.
Something in the darkness stirred,
Warmly nesting at my side
Like little sleepy bird.
Mamma r. very low the word.
Hush and darkness made the narrow space between us
'r@ seem 90 wide.
Then Imurnurcd, as he lay, ..
'Mammas close beside you, dear;
Soon the night viii 60 away.
By and by II will be day,
In the morning when my baby wakens, mama will be
here"
Wandering hngere toward me crept;
Mamma, let me hold your hand"
Clasping It he hnshed and slept;
Claspng HE could have wcpt,
Humbled by that perfect trust which needeth not to
understand.
Years have passed me by since then;
Long the little bed has stood
Empty, silent; yet, again,
Thrilling deeper than my pain,
Comes the tender voice to Danish every bitter doubt
ingmood.
Through the voiceless hush of death,
Through lifc's midnight dark and dim,
Turning unto Christ who saith
To each asking soul. "Have fath,"
Heavenward 1 reach my longing, cropping human
hands TO him.
Does he take them7 Aye, he doesl
All the cha.m deep and wide
Spanning by his love that flows
Freely fer all human woes,
skal wake In heavens bright morning with my baby
by my side.

THE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION.

The Republicans met in convention
In the Exposition Building in New
Orleans on Monday last for the pur-
pose of appointing delegates to the Ma
tional Republican Convention. a. j.
Dumont, Chairman of the State Cen.
trail Committee, called the convention
to order amidst confusion and uproar,
and after the reading of the call and
the roll of the delegates, he was de.
clared temporary chairman by Nigers
who put the nomination TO vote. De-
mas was also nominated by the Grant
men AS temporary chairman, and was
declared elected by his followers. Both
upon the platform toward
each other in threatening manner,
but prudence prevailed over valor, and
no Republican blood was spilled. Du-
mont maintained his position. The
Grant men, headed by Demas, with
drew and organized a separate .conven-
ton with Taylor Beattie as permanent
chairman. HI. C. Warmoth was made
permanent chairman Of the original
