IN THE EVERGLADES.
A Report that an Exploring Expedition Is
in Great Danger.

New ORLEANS, Nov. 19.-The Times-Demo-
glades, via Jackson, Nov. 12.-The Times
Democrat expedition through the everglades
reached Lake Okeechobee Nov. l. The
expedition encountered two severe gales on
the lake, Two boats were swamped, but no
body lost, We found eight large rivers run
ming from the lake south.i into the everglades,
which we partially explored. We made six
unsuccessful attempts to cut through the
swamp bordering the everglades. On Nov
10 went up the I'D. river distance of two
miles, This river which we named for the
Times-Democrat, is ON the extreme southern
shore of the lake. From the bank of the
the river we cut through the
surrounding marsh. The expedition
is now within half mile of the great saw
grass and going at the rate of quarter OF a
mile day. There is neither water enough
to float canoes nor land to stand on--noth-
ing but mud and marsh. The grass is ten
feet high. We are going through, if it is in
the power of mortal man. All are we'll"
subsequent dispatch from Fort Myers
indicates that the expedition is in great
danger, if not lost, because of great fire in
the saw grass. This information comes from
gentleman who accompanied the expedi-
ton to the edge of the saw-grass region bor-
dering the lake. The telegram is as follows:
FORT MYERS, Fla, Nov. 19.-I accom-
panied the Democrats expedition
until it cut two-days' journey
through the border of the everglades. The
second day after leaving the party and
while sailing on Lake Okeechobee, dis
covered that the said grass marsh had been
set on fire, and the country for miles is now
one raging fire. If the expedition fired the
grass purposely before getting in it, they
acted wisely. If done by some accident after
entering it, or was set on fire by the Indians,
not one member of the expedition will ever
live to tell the tale"
The Times-Democrat has telegraphed the
Distor Company, now dredging along the
border of Lake Okeechobee, to send a relief
party in search of the expedition and dis
cover if it has been injured by the fire.

A WelI-Arranged Plan Put Into Execution
in a Systematic Manner.
Special to the Indianapolis journal.
FOWLER, Ind, Nov. 19.-In a ride of ten
miles or more on frosty night, and on a
mission requiring the best of that element in
man known as nerve, it would seem, from
the rule of long established custom, that
there would be liberal requisition on the
article used on such occasions to exhiarate
and energize-that intoxicants would
be freely inbibed. 1t is claimed,
however, that, essential as some
of the ffty-nine men may have
regarded this sort of thing, there was not
a single bottle OF whisky in the whole crowd,
1--WE were sober, resolute, and knew exactly
what we were about" remarked one of the
members of the mob to the Journal repre-
sentative.
In an hour and twenty minutes from the
time the mob started from the place where
it had assembled, the outskirts of
Fowler were reached. They were
met by the men who had been
sent ahead to reconnoiter the town with the
report that all was quiet, The whole party
then rode rapidly into the place and sur
rounded the Jail. Sentinels were stationed
at all approaches, and the attacking force
formed into position about the Jail build
ing without word. The leaders Of the
mob then walked up the steps to the front
entrance, and after loud rappins the jailer,
]. H. Warden, came to the door, He was
asked if Sheriff Scanon was in the building,

A Complete Rout.

CAIRO, Nov. 19.-Governor Suaki... mas tel
egraphed the Khedive that although the
Bedouins were numerically inferior to the
Egyptian troops, the latter attempted no
stand, but divested themselves of arms and
clothes and rushed naked into the
sea, forsaking the Turkish officers
commanding them, who were
Killed. The Governor urgently
demands reinforcements, but says it is USE
less to send Egyptian soldiers, because they
will not fight. A council of ministers, the Khe-
dive presiding, discussed measures for pro-
tecting Suakim and subjugating the hostile
tribes. 1t was decided to enlist Bashi-
bazouks and $50 of them started for Suakim.
Six companies of black troops will be dis
patched from Massowah. These will raise
the garrison at Suakim to nearly 1000 men.

NASHVILLE, Nov 19.-The funding board

that the impression exists that no January
interest on the State debt will be paid unless
the majority of the bonds are funded. 1t is

During the hammering upon the iron doors
Melting remained perfectly quiet Not a
sound escaped him. He had dressed himself,
even to drawing on his overcoat and putting
on his hat. As he was jerked from his cell
he cried out Good bye boys; Pm gone
now" and while he was being half dragged
and half borne out of the Jail, he appealed
to the mob to go slower Pm little older
than some of you" He was placed in
buggy, and in thirty minutes from
the time the Jail was sur
rounded the mob had quietly disappeared in
the direction whence it came. But few of
the citizens of Fowler were aware of the
presence of the mob until after it had gone
So quietly was their work done that Hon. U.
Y. Wiley, although living within one square
of the JAIL and awake at the time, knew
nothing of the mob's presence until
this morning. The sheriff's only effort
to give an alarm was in ordering a
man named Brown to go and ring the court
house bell. The order was overheard by
several members of the mob, and Brown was
taken in charge. During the assault on the
Jail, and throughout the whole affair, not a
single revolver was displayed by either the
officers or the members of the mob. A leader
OF the latter, who has already been quoted,
said to the Journal representative to-day:
"a short time ago, l asked Scanlon what he
proposed TO do if we should try to take
Nelling out of Jail. He answered me then
"Pll not hurt any one." Another member
of the mob, in speaking of the assault on the
Jail, said: 1.-THE only thing | regret is that
the Jail was damaged. Scanlon wouldn't
give us the keys, and we had to batter the
doors down. Pm willing to give S. towards
paying for the repair of the damage rather
than have it fall on the county,"
Jailer Warden, when asked if the mob had
been expected, answered: No We were
not prepared to make any defense. Nelling
was not expecting it, either, I think"

that the long and weary hours of

to have vanished from our eyes"

BETWEEN TWO STOOLS.

This is the unenviable position in
which the Premier finds himself to-
day. On the one side is Colonel
Claus Spreckels, and, on the other,
the Pacific Mail Company and the
accredited agent of the State De-
partment at Washington. The policy
of the Hawaiian Government has
evidently been closely followed in
Washington, and American policy,
shaped by the influence Of the Pacific
Mail Company, is the undoubted
cause of the presence, in Honolulu,
of the American Commissioner. This
gentleman is not likely to suffer any
delay in his dealings with the Pre-
mier, nor is he likely to be cajoled
by those mannerisms in which the
Premier is an adept, nor misled by
the persuasive eloquence of the glib
tongued President of many Boards.
The action of the State Department
at Washington is most marked, and
His Majesty should not fail to notice
into what disrepute his chief adviser
is, slowly, yet surely, dragging his
kingdom. The next move of the
"Protoean Premier" will be watched
with interest, as time is brief and
the situation is dangerous. His Of
fetal head depends upon the agility
that he displays in successfully ac-
complishing the political feat Of
clinging to both stools.

xr,monta Powder

This is the name of a new explosiyeyin-
vented and patented by Mr.. Joseph W. Girls
com, of Jenkintown, Pa, an accomplished
chemist. Mr.. Griscom visited Prof thinner
man, of this city, recently, and at the Profess
sur' request brought a sample of his powder
with him. The powder is a compound of nj
trate of ammonia and chlorate of potash, and
resembles earth of a reddish yellow appear
ance. The peculiarly of the substance is its
great force and power and its safety 1t can
not be exploded except by conclusion, and
when set afre burns very slowly. While here
Mr. Griscom exhibited the remarkable prop
critics of the powder in the presence of Mayor
Thomas, Councilman Trumbo, A. NJ Warner,
Prof Zimmerman and representative of the
ADVOCATE. The powder was put in paper in
the shape of cartridge. A cap was inserted
in it, and against it another cap, to which was
attached fuse. When things were in readi-
ness, the fuse was lighted. and burning up to
the caps the caps WEIR exploded, the concus-
sion exploding the powder. The first test
was an open air one, the charge being hung
in tree. The report was tremendous, and
reyerherated over the hills and valleys like
the sound of artillery. A rock and then
large stump were next removed by exploding
the powder, and further test of its power
was made in the quarres along the railroad,
Just above the city. There a drilled hole was
partly filed with water from the rain, but the
powder was put in and exploded with the
fuse and cap, as before, the explosion burst
ing the rock into many fragments.
A company, with a large capital, has been
formed to manufacture ammonia powder, and
it must certainly meet with success when the
merits of the explosive become known.
