lodges arc mostly what are called FREQ

which carry silver There are eight or
ten lodges here that prospect well on the
surface. There arc Eve or six claims
here which are tho richest / ever saw

ton Of being permanent veins as they
are good and strong, and varying ia
width from one to four feet. Very little
development has been done ~ yet, the
deepest shaft in the camp being not more
than l5 feet in depth, but from the
amount Of work which has been done, I
never saw 10 rich showing in 70 many

ST. PETERSBURG, September 25.-An in

Eastern Roumelian union exists, and the
old war spirit which so characterized the
people at the outbreak of hostlities be-

in case the Sultan's forces should attack
Bulgaria. "Such action" he said, "would

THE CHINESE MUST GO.
More Trouble Anticipated in the
West.
Cheyenne Working Men Give Them Until
October 1 to Leave.

CHEYENNE, wy, September 27.-The
workingmen of this city, representing all
classes of labor, held secret meeting last
night, and at very early hour this morn
ing number of printed dodgers were dis
tributed in different parts of the city, and
also posted on the doors of all houses &C.
cupied by the Chinese, reading as follows:
"a fair warning: All Cinnamon found in
the city of Cheyenne after October will be
subject to coat of tar and feathers, and
ridden from the city on a rail. Workngmen,
the Chinese must go.". The most minute
inquiry thus far can not trace the source
from which these dodgers originated. The
AFFAIR." has created q sensation throughout
the city and while nearly all tho best citi-
zens of Cheyenne would prefer to see the
Chinese 60, still there is no doubt that
should a mob attempt to drive them out
with violence on October /, they would be
protected. The proprietor of the steam
laundry publishes card in to-day's paper,
stating that, in Difference to public opinion,
they have discharged all Chinese help.
SEATTLE, w. T., September 27.-The
Chinese camp at the New Castle Mines
was visited last night by a mob of masked
white men, who compelled the guard to
surrender. After some talk the mob agreed
to give the Cinnamon tw enty -four hours
to leave. They said they would riddle
with bullets al Cinnamon found there at
the expiration of that time. A special
train has just started for Newcastle to
bring the Chinese down.

Died in a BARRIERS Chair.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, September 81
Harry Edwards, who was employed as a
cook in Frank Tombley's restaurant, No.
1871 Vine street, died this morning while
sitting in chair at Crosses bar ber shop
No. 304 North Ninth street. The man had
seated himself to be shaved by one of tho
attendants, named Louis Algana, and
though he was very quiet, there was MOTH
ing in his manner to indicate that
he was i'll. The barber had latbered
him and had nearly finished going
over his face once with a razor.
During this time the customer never
moved nor uttered sound, and when
Algana spoke to him about the weather
there was no reply. A second later the
mans head rolled lifeless off the head -rest
to the side of the chair The affair caused
the greatest excitement in the neighbor-
hood, and when Algana learned that he
had been shaving dead man he was so
shocked that he was too frightened to give
any intelligent account of the affair 1t is
said that the dead man was steady, hard
working and reliable, and appeared not at
n II unwell re.

Fatal Dynamite ExDI0si0n.

York, Pa, September 25.-An accident
occurred at York Haven, about ten miles
from here, this afternoon, which resulted in
the death of one man and the serious in
jury of three others. A large paper mill is
being erected there, and workmen were
engaged in excavating rock in preparing
the foundation. A number of blasts had
been made, but one of them failed to en-
plode, and it was thought the workmen
had neglected to charge it. John Nor
rissey, of Washington, D. c., began drill
ing out the hole, and with his drill struck
the dynamite with which it had been
charged, when terrible explosion occur
red. Morrissey's right hip was crushed, and
the flesh was torn from his limbs. He died
this evening. Thomas O'Brien was cut
about the head, and was badly burned with
powder. Patrick Hagerty had his left eye
blown out, and was also severely blrned,
sa.s John e'Gonntd Vas badly Injured
about the body.

Letters From a Corpse.

WASHINGTON, September 24.-The Pen
sion Office records show remarkable case
of life in death. In 1864 Lieutenant from
an Ohio village was killed in one of the
battles in Virginia and his body was sent
home, buried and a handsome monument
erected over it. He left widow. For
more tlian twenty years she has been try
ing to get a pension, but, although she
keeps fresh flowers upon her husbands
grave, she cannot prove that he is dead.
The records in the Adjutant Generals office
are perfect, and affidavits can be furnished
from thousands of people who saw and
recognized his lifeless body, but every few
months she receives a letter from the
dead man, written in hand as familiar as
her own. Two letters never came from
the same place. Now they are postmarked
in Colorado then in Texas, then in New
York. Once she got a note from him at
Washington. He appears to know what Is
going on at home, and always alludes to
local occurrences with familiarity that is
amazing. He sends messengers to old
friends and gives her advice about business
matters which it seems impossible for q
stranger to know. She can not answer,
because he never gives any clue to his
ever been able to find him. Her
friends believe that the writer of the
letter is some crank or malicious person
who takes this way to annoy her. Several
times the writer has intimated that he
might soon pay her visit, but the next
letter always contains an apology for not
having done so. The woman has suffered
agony of mind beyond description, and
her life has been ruined by this horrible
mystery, but of late she has become more
resigned, and would neither be surprised
or disappointed if her husband should some
day walk into her house.
