Immediately following the explosion

1.-THE air in the hoisting works was filed
with a penetrating and almost suffocsting
odor. The fact is explained by Mr..
Thompson, who says that air subjected
to great pressure becomes dead and
putrid. and emits the offensive smell that
was observed on the occasion referred
to-" This is a nut for the scientists to
work upon, says the Daily Exchange.
These who have had experience with air
pumps ought to be able to say whether a
steady pressure has any such effect, or
whether it is due to a sudden conclusion.

Is insanity increasing? The most
shocking and lamentable Of recent trag-

the veriest mockery Of medical science
that the wife OF DR.. Seguin, the son
Of one of the most eminent authorities
OF France. and himself one of the most
eminent men in the same branch of
medical practice in America, should be
the victim of insanity, and while insane

SPECIAL TO THE sKNTINKL.l
LYONS, Nov. IA placard has been
posted on the walls of the principal build
ings, and on the bulletin boards, calling
for another Socialist demonstration here.
The authorities are unable to discover
who placed the placards, SO secretly has it
been done. But notice has been given,
and it is probable that a demonstration
will take place. The police are on the
alert, and will prevent, if possible, any
outbreak or tendency to become upruly.
The military continue in the barracks,
ready to be called on at any moment. 1t
is not likely that the Anarchists will find
as smooth sailing as before, if they at
tempt to disturb the peace of the city and
nation.

yuE C0REAS TREATY.

In the matter Of commercial advan-
tages resulting to this country from the
Corean treaty, Commodore Shufeldt ex-
presses his conviction that these are pros
pective. At present Corea is not a very
important factor in the commerce Of the
world, but it is a country OF suscepti-
bilities; and besides, the opening OF the
country was another step in the progress
of removing the barriers OF Eastern eX'
elusiveness, in which the preference
shown to Americans gives them great
prestige there. While the Coreans looked
with distrust upon other foreign nations,
they had the most implicit confidence in
the United States Government.

General Conner, who is thoroughly con-

in an interview with a SENTINEL reporter
that the Mormons would act in such a

borne out by facts that have come to
light within the last fortnight. The
polygamists, from President John Taylor
down to the distant Apostles, Bishops
and Elders in the most extreme parts Of
their domain, have separated from their
wives and are living openly with only
one. All polygamists have, under orders,

THE MrssCLMAN SOLDIER,

In view of the ostentatious announce
snents made by the British Government
in London Of the preparations for ship
ping native troops from India to Egypt,
it is beginning to be a serious inquiry as
to whether it is safe to rely upon the
Mussulman troops in Egypt or behalf of
= Christian Power. The question is a
very serious one, as British India con-
tains about 70, 900, 900 Mussulmans, the
most warlike tribes in all that vast EN-.
pire. Many have been thoroughly trained
in the English system Of warfare, and if
they were again to break out in rebellion
at this time, England would be forced to
give up the Egyptian contest as a hope

THE ALEXANDRIA, MASSACRE

Eyewitness Of the last massacre at
Alexandria have a frightful account to
giveo of the atrocities perpetrated by the
natives upon such foreign residents of
that city as were so unfortunate as to fall
into their power. Compared with some
of the cruelties committed, mere murder
is almost a venial offence. Only in a
country where the benignant and human
izlng influence of the Christian religion
has not been felt could the commission Of
such outrages as those described be pos
sible, and the horror with which they are
regarded by Christian people constitutes
in itself the most oogent and impressive
evidence Of the vast value to the world
Of the faith of Christondom.

man goes at everything he undertakes
with an enegy and confidence that to a
slow and methodical man is perfectly as
tonishing. To him there is no such word
as fail. He lays the foundation on which
the practical man along and builds.
He encourages others, drives away sad
ness, and does not believe that life is a
mockery and the world a sham. Defeated
in one scheme, he begins another as
cheerily as the first. To the sanguine
man we owe our greatest inventions, our
