THE ANARCHISTS MUST DIE.
Judge Gary Refuses Them a New
 Trial.

CHICAGO, Oct. 7.-Judge Gary, in the Grim lnal Court, this morning, overruled the mo tion for new trial ill the case of the eight anarchists, charged with the Haymarket mas sacre, and confirmed the verdict of the jury that Spies, Parsons, Fielden, Schwab, Engel, Fischer, and Lingg should be hanged, and that Neebe should suffer Imprisonment for 15 Years in the State penitentiary. Judge Gary, in delivering his uecision, reviewed at consld- able length the evidence brought out at the trial. He said: If anything can be proved by circumstantial evidence, that is proved; :; that he threw that bomb in consequence of the influence which these teachings, this advice by speech and printing over Q course of two years; that the man who threw that bomb had been educated up to it by the teachings of these defendants. The case, as I said before, is un- precedented. There is no example of any such crime having been committed; there is no pre- cedent or any case like this having become the subject of judicial investigation; but the prin- ciple of law is well fixed.
 Spies, in reply said: The system of wages is the root of the present social iniquities--in- iquities so monstrous as to cry to heaven. Grinnell has informed us that Anarchism was on trial. Anarchism belongs to speculative philosophy, and not a word was said about An- archism at the Haymarket. But if Anarchism Is on trial, am proud to say l am an Anarch- ist. You may pronounce your sentence on me, honorable Judge, but let it be known that in the year 1886, in the State of Illinois, eight men have not lost their faith ill human pro- gress. It is the old question. Look over the pages of the history of Greece and Rome. There you will see the records of the self-same struggle-the ruling class dominating the poorer.
 Spies concluded by disavowing all knowledge of the man who threw the bomb, and protest ed he intended to do no violence at the Hay ing against the verdict, and then the cour. ad- journed.

A Farmer's Tools in India.

In India farmers tools arc of the simplest kind. The plow is triangular piece of board, IS inches long and six inches wide at the base, and simply roots the ground. The yoke for the bullocks is a straight stick and is at tachcd to the beam of the blow by a grass cord The cattle are the Brahmini species--whitc, slender bodied, long legged and very lean. The only food of the cattle for months is ''choosa," which is the wheat straw and chaf from tho threshing floor. They cost about e1 to e4 per pair, and the blow cost Is 3d.. The land is plowcd at least ten times, and frequently thirty, as the blow scratches the soil only. The harrow is a log or slab of wood to feet long, drawn sideways across the fields to scratch the Jumps.

RESCUED FROM THE RAPIDS,
Thrilling Adventure of Q Young Man
 at Niagara Falls.

NIAGARA FALLS, N. r., Oct. 5, 1Ss6.-The town is all excitement over thrilling accident that occurred here this evening. Charlie Rob- inson, young man, nineteen years of age, left the Schlosser Club house, on the river, about two miles above here, in Q small boat to come home. By some accident he lost his course and got into the rapids, where his boat cap- sized and he was whirlcd in the angry torrent toward Bath Island, near the site where the Pettibone Paper Mill stood, together with it's piers and water dams, since demolished by the Niagara State reservation.
 Fortunately there were some heavy iron drift bolts yet left undisturbed, and Robinson was dashed against one of these and grasped it. He managed by all th0 power he possessed to get his legs around it and hold himself fast.
 The news of the accident was soon spread. Tom Conroy, Jack McCloy and John Haines, commonly known as 'Sailor Jack" took Q rope and walked out on the broken down piers into the rapids above Goat Island bridge, where the water was shallow, and after several attempts line was thrown, which Robinson managed to get hold of and fasten around his body. He then let go his hold of tho iron rod and was quickly dragged to safety.

Knights of Labor.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 11.-A letter was received at the Nav& Department from Secretary Whit ney in response to the appeals of the Knights of Labor and other organizations and from in- dividuals, asking his interference to secure the reinstatement of discharged employees of the Washington Navy Yard. He authorizes the reply to all such appeals that he will not him self interfere and will not permit other officials of the Navy Department to interfere or exercise any influence in this matter. The responsi bility for the removals, retentions and ap- pointments at the Navy Yard must be left entirely to the officers of the yard, who are directly responsible for the work. The foremen of the bureaus which are continued must be uninterfered with in their action in this matter, and will be held accountable for re- moyals and appointments. The Secretary says that he is pleased to learn that the dis placed workmen, who arc competent will be given the preference ill all cases ill making ap- pointments, and that large proportion of them will be re-employed when work is actively resumed, but further than this he can express no desire aald jssue no direc5ione av to who

Sad Story of Wrecked Home--A
 Husbands Trial and AcQuittal.

PouaHKEEps1E, N. Y, Oct. 7, 1ss6.-The trial of George Carver for the murder of Cornelius Cohasley at Wappinger Falls on the night of the 18th of April last occurred to-day before Judgo Barnard and jury. The evidence for the prosecution showed that Carver had known for some time that tho prisoner was intimate with his wife and that he had warned Cohas- key to keep away. On the night of the killing Carver was up, and, hearing noise, went down to the yard and saw Cohaskey throw ing pebbles against the window of his wife's bedroom and thought he heard his wife re- spond. He crept along the fence and shot at Cohaskey and wounded him. The latter ran out on the road, Carver following and firing at him. Cohaskey fell when Carver jumped upon him and beat him upon the head with his pistol. Cohaskey died the next cay of bis wounds. The defence showed that Carvers home was broken up through the continued relationship of tho deceased with his wife, and that he himself had in consequence become an outcast and wanderer from family and friends The case being submitted to the jury on these facts, that body after brief delib- eration came into court with verdict of not guilty,

A TERRIBLE EXPLOSION.
Many People Killed by Bursting Boilers on a Mississippi Steamboat.

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 5.-The Steamer La Mas cotte exploded her boilers at noon to-day, kill ing large number of people. She was passenger boat running between St. Louis and CaB Girardeau. The disaster occurred near the latter place, at Apple Creek, six miles be- low Grand Tower.
 After the explosion the steamer burned. She was Q new vessel, having been plying on the Misssissipi less than ninety days. She was valued at S91 ,0O0 and was owned by Durland & Perkins of Evansville. Ird
 ST Louis, October 6.-No cause can be as- signed for the explosion of the boiler of the river steamer La Mascotte, which caused such a great loss of life. The boat is said to have been steaming along under 150 pounds of steam, her usual amount, when an explosion suddenly occurred, blowing the fire lp every direction. The utmost confusion prevailed. The pilot, taking advantage of her heading, turned her towards the shore, but the flames caused him to abandon his post before the stage plank could be lowered. After leaving his post the current turned the boats bow out into the river again, and her stern swung close to the bank, which afforded means of escape for several who were at that end of the boat, the pilot and one cabin-boy getting ashore without injuries or even wet foot. The stage plank was lowered and many were placed upon it, mostly women and children, who would have been saved had not the smoke-stack fallen squarely across it, and all who were not killed by it were drowned. Captain Thompson, after doing all Ill his power to save the passengers and crew, jumped overheard and swam ashore, the boat having by this time drifted fully 200 yards out into the river. La Mascotte drifted over to the Illinois shore, opposite Willard's Landing, and sank, the only thing visible be- ing her wheels.
 ST. LOUIS, Oct. Tt is impossible to tell just how many lost their lives, but Captain Thomson says he thinks thirty five. He makes his estimate after counting the passengers and crew known to be saved. Of those saved many are terribly injured and will die. Roy Per kins, the chief clerk of the boat, a brother of one of the owners, was seen to go to the office of the boat, take the contents of the safe, con- sisting, of money and valuable papers, and se- cure them about his person and then jump overheard. He swam some distance, but had evidently inhaled scalding steam or received injuries some other way, for he was unable to reach shore, and after swimming around as thongh confused went down.

We Appeal to Experience.

For a long time we steadily refused to pub fish testimonials, believing that, in the opinion of the public generally, the great majority were manufactured to order by unprincipled parties as means of disposing of their wortk- less preparations.
 That this view of the case is to certain ex. tent true, there can be no doubt.
 At last, several years ago, we came to the conclusion that every intelligent person can readily discriminate between spurious and bona fide testimonials and determined to use as advertisements a few of the many hun. dreds of unsolicited certificates in our posses sion.
 In doing this, we published them as nearly as possible in the exact language used by our cor respondents, only changing the phraseology, in some cases, so as to compress them into a smaller space than they would otherwise occupy, but without in the least eNaggerating Or destroying the meaning of the writers; We are glad to say that our final conclusion was correct one-that a letter recommend Ing an article having true merit finds favor The original of every testimonial published by us is on file in our office, an inspection of which will prove to the most Hkeptical that our given as they appear therein, is true.
 But as 1t would be very inconvenent, if not mmpossible, nm for all of our friends to call on us us there be such), to correspond with any of the parties whose names are signed to our testi- ulOnlAiSs ana aSk Inom IT we nave made any misstatements, so far as their knowledge cx- tends, in this article. In other words, if we have not published their letters as nearly yer batim as possible.
