Horrible Casualty.

PARIS, June 11.-At Theirs, town in
the Department of Puy de Dome, a
murder trial has been in progress for
some days. Yesterday, the last day of
the trial. the courthouse was crowded
with men and women anxious to wit
ness the closing scenes. When the
people were leaving, Immediately after
the adjournment of court, and were
jammed upon the stone stairway lead
ing to the street, the loft of the staircase
fell, and the scene that followed was
appalling. Immense masses of masonry
from above crashed down upon the
through their flesh and bones, and
manning and mutilating them in hor-
rible manner. The fall of the staircase
and the screams of the people living
helpless in the ruins caused a panic in
the courtroom, and there was rush
for the now wrecked exit. Those who
were in front were unable to withstand
the pressure from behind, and we're
hurled down upon the men and women
crushed in the fall of the staircase, and
whom the people in the street were. al
ready striving to rescue. When at
length the panic had exhausted itself,
and the immense stone steps of the
fallen staircase had been removed,
twenty persons were taken from the
ruins dead. The injured numbered
not less than sixty and many OF. these
will die of their injuries.
A later dispatch says, that in addi-
ton to the twenty persons killed in the
courthouse disaster yesterday, fully 100
persons were injured e..
A still later dispatch from Theirs
makes the courthouse calamity there
yesterday by far more disastrous in its
consequences than the earlier dispatches
indicated. The dead already number
tWenty-four; the total number in
jured is now placed at 163. OF these
fourteen are very seriously injured and
some will die. =,

Terrific Explosion.

GALVESTON. June 11.-Nelps' Zaceeates,
Mex: Twelve miles from Zaeecat ties, is
situated the celebrated Santo Tiburcis
de I4aueta Grande mine, the mine that
has produced ever since the Spanish
Conquet, yielded untold millions of
silver during that time. Within the
past few years it has been newly de-
veloped and fitted throughout with the
most costly modern machinery. The
work of recovering and reopening all
portions of the great mine has been in
progress and yesterday was approach
ing completion. Large quantities of
timber and other material, including
blasting powder, have been kept on
hand. This morning an explosion oc-
CURED, plainly heard at Zacecates, by
which 500 cases of Giant powder had
gone off by some means unknown.
Ten persons were killed outright and
as many more wounded. The mine and
everything near it is a complete wreck.
The surface improvements were totally
destroyed.

sexton's views of the Tories.

LONDON June 11.-Thomas Sexton,
Home-ruler, member of Parliament for
Sligo, was interviewed to-dry on the
subject of the ministerial crisis. He was
of the opinion that the Conservatives
would accept power in order to utilize
the opportunity to show the country
that they possess more of the governing
faculty than the Liberals, in view of the
approach of the general elections. I'm
less, he said. they seize the present
chance of favorably impressing the
electors, the youngest Tories will find
their hair gray before they get into
power. He regarded Lord Randolph
Churchill as the man for Irish Secre-
tary. Lord Randolph, he said, had
often shown friendly feeling toward
Ireland and capacity to take a toler-
ably fair view of the Irish public CUES
tons. His success or failure would de-
pend upon whether, like the previous
Irish secretaries. he would be content
to be simply the nouthpiece of the Irish
officials.

The Hostile Apaches.

LEAvENwoRTH, June 11.-Edmund G.
Ross, lately appointed Governor Of
New Mexico, was here to-day. He ex-
presses much sympathy for the sufferers
from the Apache raid throughout New
Mexico, and believes in radical and
effective measures for suppressing such
raids in the future. He does not be-
lieve the heart of the Apaches can be
reached by the customary liberal dis
tribution of food and clothing and a
promise of protection by the military
authorities, but that he is more sus-
ceptible to restraint from fear of being
shot or hanged if he leaves the reser-
walton and goes off on mHrderous
raids. Governor Ross says he will do
all he can to bring the Apache raiders
and murderers who have been infesting
southern New Mexico into the power of
the civil authorities of the Territory
for such trial and punishment as are
melted out to American citizens guilty
of similar crimes

WASHINGTON, June 11.-Among q
number of suggestions made to the Sec
rotary of the Treasury designed to pre-
vent any repetition of the recent defal-
cations at the New Orleans sub treasury
Is one which proposes to reduce the
amount of government money at that
poins to from about $4,000, 600 to So
1000, and to distribute it among the
various national and State banks of
New Orleans as deposits, upon their
giving appropriate security in
government bonds, to be de-
posted in the United States
Treasury at Washington. This plan as
submitted to the Secretary. refers only
to New Orleans, although, evidently
the purpose of its originator seems to
contemplate Its extension to other sub
treasures if it should be adopted and
prove satisfactory at New Orleans. No
action as has yet been taken on this
proposition or upon any other sugges-
tlcns above referred to; but they are all
under consideration.

to life or limb. Men, when threat
ened with danger, must determine
the necessity of resorting to self
defense, and they will not he held
reponsible for mistake in the
extent of the actual danger, nor be
subject to the peril of making that
guilty, if appearances prove false,
which would be innocent if they
proved true. There must be at
least an apparent necessity, an
actual necessity, or reasonable
belief of such necessity, to ward off
some impending harm. Necessity
is defense when the act charged
was done to avoid irreparable evil,
from which there was no other
adequate means Of escape, and the
remedy was not disproportiOnate
to the threatened evil and the neces-
sity must not haze been created
by the fault of him who pleads it,
nor be occasioned by him, nor be
the result of his own culpability,
nor be rashly rushed into and in
cases of assault or intrusion by
strangers no more force than is
necessary must be used in repell-
ing the assault.
"The right of self-defensc docs
not include the right of retribution.
A party assaulted is justified in using
such force as is necessary to repel
an assailant, but no more, and if
unnecessary force is used he
becomes the assailant. The degree
of force must not exceed the
bounds of defense and prevention,
and this depends on the circum-
stances of each case, and the con-
dition of both parties may be con-
sidered A party in possession of
property may use force sufficient to
protect it. Whether q man is JUS
titled in employing in the first
instance such means of resistance
as will produce death depends on
the circumstances and the nature
of the attack, and he may not
always use deadly weapon, and it
is still further wrong if it is con-
ccaled weapon. But if the taking
of life is necessary it will be excus-
able. 1t is always excusable when
in defense of life, yet it requires a
great disparity Of size and strength
and very violent attack to excuse
the taking of life. A party may use
whatever force is necessary to avert
the apparent danger, although it
may afterward appear that the gun
was not loaded, and that there was
no real danger. r."-Louisville COM

Flax Crop.

Northern Idaho is the boss coun-

crop harvested this year that has
threshed less than twenty-five BUSH
els to the acre, while most fields
have averaged thirty bushels. Think
of this, ye flax raisers of Ohio, Indi-

where you claim the best flax coun-
try in the world and boast of your
ten or twelve bushels per acre. Sell
out and come to Nez Perce and
Idaho counties, and buy or locate
lands that shall produce you
twenty-five bushels Of fax, thirty OF

where crops never fail, where grass.

and dust. Leave the States and
