mc,oULLoUGH HIMsELF AGAIN.


 At Least So the Great Actor Believes. ST. LOUIS, Oct 6.-John Mccullough ar rived at the Southern Hotel yesterday in company with J. H. Breslin. In answer to a question to-day he said: ''I am as well as ever was in my life, the reports of the press notwithstanding.
 'EHave you terminated your engagements this season to take rest?" q have not 1 will open in St. Louis next Monday week where am advertised MT. McVickar, the manager of the theater in Chicago, shut his doors upon me and refused to allow me to play when was as capable as I ever was, but I will be even some day"
 frWhat is the cause, then, of this report of your nervous prostratlon!' 'tIt arises from the vile city press of Chica- go instigated by McVickar. I am not pros trated. I am as vigorous as I ever was. My season will go on as usual and my troupe will join me here next week. I had seven months rest in Germany and that was enough"
 'ewhat caused the press to declare that you failed in Chicagos'
 'eMalignity. They reported that I was hjssed. That is untrue. McVickar and his wife occupied box on my first night The next night several things went wrong in the last act, but no more through my fault than others The greatest actors have done like wise. Why, recalled the time when l prompted for rest through a whole scene" = ttHave you ever lost consciousness on the stage?"

MINERS IN A BURNING SHAFEs Two Men SuHOcated and Several others
 in Deadly Peril.


 HANCOCK, Mich, Oct. 6.-Saturday night fire was discovered in an idle portion of the Hecla branch of the Calumet and Hecla mine on the eleventh level between number three and four shafts where for years wooden wedges from timber were made. The ac- emulation of chips and shavings partly saturated with oil through some unknown cause became ignited. Several men sent down Saturday night to use the hose were driven back by the smoke. Thomas Gribbell was suffocated and could not be rescued Sunday morning John Rapson with three other volunteers descended to examine the pumps and attempt to recover GribbelPs body. After going short distance they were driven back. Rapson was overcome. He was seen to fall back, but his comrades could not return to him. Other volunteers, among them R. Bergman, descended to attempt re- cover Rapson's body. Three men were over come Bergman made strenuous efforts to save his, comrades. He ran to the shaft for air and returning threw the three men into the car. Then he ran out again for more air and returned and rang the bell. The car raised the three unconscious men. Bergman was almost exhausted. The re- covery of the three is doubtful. There is danger of the fire reaching the large tran1- way which is saturated with oil and may conduct the fire to the other levels. The mine is filled with smoke. The shafts are being closed to prevent draft. Great fear and anxiety prevails. This is the first un- derground fire in the Lake Superior mines and the first suspension of work in this great copper producer since the strike of 1872. T1a mil is 1v Jhn with pine which is very inf1ammab1e A large cralicr arrived to-day to fight fine fire

It Must BE Suppressed.

The east half of the block on Camp
street, between Lamar and Griffin street,
has become such general resort for
disreputable characters that the police
have been instructed to keep special
outlook in that neighborhood. Nightly
crowds of debased women and men
meet, white and black gather in the
houses on that portion of the street and
make night hideous by their yulgarity
and Bachanalian revelry. Respectable
people living in the neighborhood
threatened to take the matter into their
own hands if the disgraceful nuisance
was not abated and the police have
been given orders to break up if noces-
sary the dives that infest that street.
