special election ordered by the may or
10 fill the vacancy for alderman FOR
the Seventh ward, caused by the resig-
nation of Il. A Smith, takes place to-
morrow, and from present indica-

Under the recently amended city
charter it will be understood that
while each one of the twelve wards Of
the city have an alderman designated
as the alderman from that particular
ward, they are in fact, all elected at
large. Hence, to morrow's election
for alderman for the Seventh ward is
general throughout the city.
There are two candidates in the
field tonight, both democratic OF
course, but representing entirely diff
ierent elements.
w. j. Hughes is strongly endorsed
BY citizens from the seventh ward,
while the simon pure labor element
have put forth II II. Barry as their
standard bearer. Mr.. Hughes is the
proprietor Of q gun store on the

lation seemed TO have gathered about
the colliery. The accident occurred
in drift No. 2, located AT the extreme
end fthe opening of the slope, 1000
feet from the mouth of the mine, and
therefore its ventilation was a diff
cult problem. The gas had igniied
in the breast, where miner named
Csfly was at work. An exploring
party of some twenty miners entered
the slope as soon as the news reached
the surface amt soon discovered that
many had been burned, and they al
once beggn to remove them.
Among those seriously injured are
George Martin, miner; John Cleas
ley, n laborer; Nicholas Gray, driver
Peter Cafiy, miner; Sam Morris, la.
borer; Joseph Carduski, driver, and
