| Frfghtful- Calamity

An explosion occurred on the morning Of the
18th in the Flat-top mine near Pocahontas, in
the Northwest portion of Tazewell County, Va !,
entombing $50 men, not one of whom escaped.
Those not killed outright by the terrible force
Of the explosion perished from the after damp.
The work Of destruction was not confined en-
lrely to the interior of the mines but houses
200 or 300 feet removed from tho works were
overturned, and in several instances entirely
demolished. The large ventilator of the South
west Improvement Company was blown to
atoms, and the mine cannot be entered until
another is constructed for the purpose Of free
ing the atmosphere from the snffocating fumes.
The latest intelligence from the explosion is
that fully 150 men were killed. Tho accident
was caused by the men going too far with
lampe. All the machinery was wrecked. The
men in the mine were mostly Hungarians with
out families. Immediately the mine took fire,
and it was found necessary to close and seal
the mouth of the mine in order to smother the
flames. None of the bodies were recovered.
The mine will remain closed two weeks.

The w. c. T. U. of Holland must have felt that their efforts were appreciated as they faced the audience in the Methodist church, Sunday evening (5th), to hear Mrs. Barney's address. It was women s meeting-speakers, officers, choir and ush- ers-all of the feminine gender. The ex- ercises were conducted by Mrs. Calvin Whiton, with grace and dignity. and after the singing, scripture reading and prayer, introduced Mrs. Barney in a manner few presiding officers could equal. It would be impossible to give synopsis of Mrs. Barney's remarks. The text was "Stop and think, giving in the course of her re- marks some word pictures of scenes she had witnessed in her experience as presi- dent of the R. I. w. O. T.

Discharged Reform school Boys.

To the Editer of the indianapolis journal:
The admission of a boy into the Refermatory
is an important event in his life, and his dis
charge, in many respects, is more important
The authoritative guardianship Of the State
should be continued after he leaves the institu-
ton. A good safe home, and the continuance Of
the forces that reclaimed him from the errors of
his ways, are absolutely required to bring to a
successful issue the good work wrought in his
behalf in the Reform School With his good
school, his re-entrance into the outside world is
environed with many temptations and
serious difficulties All around him
is discouraging. He seeks employment finds
none; for friends and sympathy, but his heart
is too often chilled with the sad experience, mo
man careth for my soul" In his disappointment
and encouragement, temptation to wronc-doing
overcomes his resisting power, and he yields, and
is overwhelmed and wrecked. This great evil
could be avoided if the State of Indiana weuld
provide an agent to seek for homes, locate the
boysfn these homes, and watch over them until
their majority. By this simple and inexpensive
agency the demand and supply could be con-
nected, and every boy honorably dis
charged would be at once placed
in "a place where he could enjoy
all the advantages of good training and safety.
In the State of Massachusetts such an agency
has been tested for many years, and its success
has been fully demonstrated. In Ohio and Indi
ana such an arrangement is imperatiFely de
manded to complete the work of reforming and
educating their ignorant, vicious and criminal

and provide such homes for them, then watch
over their interests till they are of age Few of
them will drift into an evil life or fail to honor
themselves and the Commonwealth that saved

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.


A french Estimate of fhe Two Candidates.
TO the Editor Of the indianapolis Journals
It may be that the Republicans will not need
the vote of France any more than they do that
of England to elect the Maine statesman to the
presidency, but it will be of interest to all who
love America more than they do the European
powers, to know that Mr.. cleveland would have
an overwhelming majority abroad-just as Mr..
Blaine will have at home
Le Steele, the leading French newspaper, gives
the following account of the two nominees:
sMr. Blaine late senator from Maine was
Secretary of State under Mr.. Garfeld's admins
tration. He is supported warmly by the Irish, a
strong and influential element in politics. They
have not forgotten the energy with which, in
1869, he accomplished the release Of several of
their countrymen who, although American citi-
zens, had been imprisoned in England. By his
vigorous pushing of the matter he s0rercame
British opposition and secured their freedom.
Mr.. Blaine has many claims to the favor of
Americans who are hostile to English and Euro
pean national influence.
"a thorough protectionist, he will resist every
effort to reduce or remove the tariff, and will
neglect no occasion TO hold in check whatever
rights Europe may claim in the new world, es-
pecially after the completion of the Panama
canal"
Afterthe Democratic nominations are made
the same journal publishes all it has ever hear d
of Cleveland IN these words:

Mr. Cleveland for the presidency" G. w. NJ.

man and a companion stealing grapes, and shot
in their direction and, as hesays to their right
so as to Brighten them away The
men ran, and then, for the first time

was concealed behind the vines, and he ran also
A few minutes later he was informed that there
was wounded man in the road, and he went to
him and found twas Hart, who was unconscious.
Howells called in the neighbors. and applied
such restorative remedies as he had at hand, and
then prepared to come to the city to surrender
himself to the authorities. He says that he did
not see Hart until after he shot, and did not
know that anybody was in the direction in which
he aimed the gun.
James Carpenter, neighbor, corroborated
these statements in the main particulars ana
said that Howells told him that he only shot to
