Big Cry About Little Wool.

The ladies of the Christian church
of Gunnison city on Thursday of last
week gave n baby show in one OF the
public halls for the benefit of their
church. Prior to the event the ques-
ton has been publicly agitated whether
or no colored babies should be permit
ted to compete for the premiums, which
caused much i'll feeling, the sequel of
which The Gunnison News Democrat
gives as follows: "While the fun was
going on, and just as the mothers with
the infants'in their arms were taking
seats at the upper end of the hall, a
colored oma entered with her baby
infant in her arms, paid the admission
fee and marched forward and took a
seat with the others. The man at the
door refused to give the woman, Mrs.
Robinson, n badge for her baby, but
nevertheless there she was. The col
ored baby has come was whispered
through the room, and everybody was
eager to see what the outcome would
be. Most of those present were in ia
vor of allowing the colOred child to
remain and compete for the prize, but
some few objected, and some one or
two of the managers requested Othcer
Meyers and Riley to ask her to leave
her seat among the exhibitors. Mrs.
Robinson did not seem inclined to COM
ply at first, but finally arose and left
the hall, taking her child with her. At
this there was an outburst of indigna-
ton, and the policeman and those who
were responsible for the ac' were Sc
verely denounced. Mayor Moses stood
quietly by, but did nothing to prevent
the woman and her child from being
fired Feeling ran high, and several
were in favor of bringing the woman
back and compelling the managers to
allow her to remain. 1t was a public
exhibition they said, and the child
has just rs much right here as any
other The charity of the church was
broad enough, however, TO overlook
the color of an infants skin, and al
though the mother returned lateri in the
evening with her baby, she was not al
lowed n badge, and the child was ex-
cluded fror, the list of exhibits. Anew
indignant ones in the audience, finding
that the colored child was not to be
given a show, dubbed together and
raised o purse of $40 with which to
purchase a handsome cloak for it, and
its mother was made happy with the
knowledge that her baby was to have
the costliest present after ALL"
On Sunday morning a rumor became
current that a police magistrate had
procured the celored nm to bring
her baby to the show. During the day
the police magistrate met on the street
a prominent real estate man, the hus-
band of one of the lady managers of
the show, and the real estate man
slapped the magistrates face. The
magistrate pulled q revolver and lev
eled it at the real estate man, when
Mayor Moses caught his arm and
pulled it down; again he leveled his
gun on the rerl estate man, when City
Attorney Hogg stopped him, Much
i'll feeling exists in the city.

who was fatally injured at the explosion at
the Opera. house last night, died this after
noon. Albert Seramer mot SEYMOUR cannot
live, as the physicians say. The other three
injured are doing well, and will recover.
The cause of the accident was the explosion
OF q calcium light cylinder, the result OF
mixing hydrogen and oxygen gas, with
which the two cylinders were charged. The
mistake was made by harrington in the fore
noon. II was noticed and his attention was
called to it by the scenic artist accompany
ing Golfers Lights o. London" Company.
Harrington replied that it was all right that
when he wanted by drogen all he needed to
10 was to turn on the oxygen cylinder.
This he forgot to do. The scenic artist also
told Manager Marsh that the running of the
calcium lights was in mex perienced hands,
and that he was appreheusive of danger.

A New Explosive,

Sebastine is the name of a new explosive
brought to light in Sweden, which is attract
ing much attention. II appears to be based
upon nitro-glycerine, but, while both more
powerful and cheaper than the ordinary dy-
Mantle, possesses greater safety, because the
explosive oil is more completely absorbed
kind OF charcoal and other ingred
tents, and because in ordinary cases it
requires no percussion cap to explode.
In mining, sebastine is exploded simply by
the fuse, providing the bore-hole is properly
secured by strong wadding, as in an ordi-
nary charge of blasting powder. According
to official statements not one single instance
of accident has happened from its use. The
Swedish government having ordered trials Of
sebastine against dynamite, it is SAID to have
been proved that sebastine was far superior
in effect and about equal in force to English
gun-cotton when used In torpedoes
