switch at the central office (Postoficel was
completed on Thursday. The line to con-
meet the Eureka Tunnel and Ruby-Dun-

Another Fatal Explosion.

ALLESTowN, March 23.-The boil
er at the ore mine of Charles Lesser,
two miles south ofthis city, exploded
this afternoon. James Weaver, the
engineer, was fixing the fires at the
time and was thrown six feet back
ward, falling into a well sixty feet
deep and containing thirty-five feet
Of water. He was dead when found.
His face and hands were badly
scorched by steam but as no bones
were broken or no other injuries
visible, it is supposed he was drown
ed. He leaves a wife and seven chill
dren. Harry Lesser, aged seventeen
years and son of the proprietor OF
the mine, was struck by the fire box
and had leg broken. A new check
valve was connected with the engine
this afternoon which failed to work
properly, and before the engineer
was aware of it the boiler was emp
ty. The pressure of the steam a
the time was only ten pounds.

New ORLEANS, March 23.-The
water from the breaks at Largent
and Waterproof is gradually spread
ing over the whole of Concordia
parish, and is higher now than for
many years. The number of per-

increased, and may be placed at
about $500. The town of Vidalia
has been protected by the railroad
embankment from the back water
but the water has been running
over it for the past two days, and
by tomorrow it is expected
that no dry ground will be
visible there. The river was sta

MARSHALL, Texas, March 2l.-Ed.
Hatten, fiye-year-old negro boy,
residing near Woodlawn, ten miles
north Of here. went into the house
of q neighboring colored woman du-
ring her temporary absence, and to
king her infant child from the cradle
carried it off toward the rairoad de-
pot. On the mothers return she gave
the alarm and began pursuit. The
child was finally found in a fence
corner, with its eyes punched out, in
dying condition. The Young de-
mon, not being old enough for legal
punishment, was caught and carried
home to his mother, who said the
boy had a penchant for putting out
eyes; that if he got hold of a chick
en- his first act was to punch out
its eyes. A flogging within an inch
OF his life by his mother is the only
punishment the juvenile cut-throat
is likely to- receive for his murderous
deed

1t is extremely fashionable in
these degenerated political days
with certain class of newspapers
and a certain order of politicians to
rail out against the bosses" on all
occasions. Who are the "bosses ?"
This is question that these diLetton-
ii reformers never seem to have con-
sidered except in the most flippant
way. They ignore the fact that the
bosses are the inen most distin-
guished for party service and party
standing; they forget that when
money is needed, organization is
wanted and speeches are demanded,
the bosses see to it that these things
are furnished. Bosses are very
handy about election time, but a
great nuisance when the offices
come to be distributed. When

Cameron last Presidential election

it was necessary for him to forge the
signatures to the dead mans vouch-
ers every quarter since his death.

As the 10th of May draws near
the tide of popular enthusiasm in
the support of General Beaver grows
stronger, and there is but little room
for doubt that before that day is
here, all other candidates, seeing
how hopeless is the struggle against
him, will gracefully yield TO the
force of public opinion and accord
to him the honor of unanimous
nomination. From the day he was
first named as candidate he has
steadily grown in the estimation of
the people, until the movement In
his support how sweeps forward
with a force that no opposition can
stay. To those who know him well,
who have watched his course, and
know his record, the enthusiasm
evoked by his candidacy causes no
surprise. The Republicans of Penn
sylvania would be untrue to their
professions, their traditions and
their history did they refuse to rec
ognize in General Beaver all that
they have been proud to honor in
the past. A man of spotless charac-
ter, of eminent ability, of unswerv-
ing Republicanism, and manned
defender of the Union and its flag
what else is needed to take, as by
storm, the Republicans of Pennsyl-
vania I? He is no tireless Office seek
er. He has no past that he need
seek to cover or explain away. His
whole life challenges investigation
and silences slander. He is the
candidate of no clique, the creature
of no ring, but, with the manliness
characteristic of the man, he pre-
sents himself, citizen to his fellow
citizens, a soldier to his comrades
who fought by his side, Republi-
can to the Republicans with whom
he has labored for the success oftbe
principles of the party, and asks
their support for the office to which
he aspires. That he will be nomi-
mated everything seems to indicate
and, if nominated, his election will
follow so surely as day follows night

Snow Slides

SAN Francisco, March 2l.-A dis
patch from Bodie says; "wednesday
night a snow slide in Lake Canon
buried several men, four of whom,
Robert Trumbull, Alexander Nc

Henry Schumacher, engineer, were
recovered, but a second slide bur
led them under forty feet of snow.
Over forty slides occurred in Lake
and Mill creek Canons between We'd
nesday and Saturday, burying in all
thirty-eight persons. With the ex-
ception of those named above, the
only one seriously injured is Chris
