The Tariff Bill Has Passed.

THE Mills tariff bill passed the
House of Representatives last Satur-
day by a majority of thirteen. Four
Democrats voted against it, while two
Republicans and three independent
Republicans voted for it, The Demo
cratic majority in the House has per
formed its duty, and the bill now goes
to the Senate. The question is, What
will the Senate, where the Republi-
cans are in a majority, do with it?
That it should be passed is undoubt-
eddy the opinion of enough Senators
TO make it law, but it remains to be
seen whether party prejudice will con
troll them or not The present tariff
imposes an average duty of 47.10 per
cent. The Mills bill reduces the
duties to an average of 40 40 per cent,
equalizing the present inequalities
and removing the burden as much as
possible from the neceSSarieS OF life.
The issue is now fairly made. The
President has declared for revenue
reform, and the Democrats of the
House have endorsed him by passing
the Mills bill. Now let's see what the
Republicans will do in the Senate
and what the people will say next No

Crushed in the Wreck.

A dispatch from Roanoke, Va, tells
of a dreadful accident on the Norfolk
& Western Railroad last Sunday, re-
sulting in the death of eleven men.
A material train going east, in charge
of Engineer VIM. Harris and Fireman
Geo. Mays, had orders to lay over at
Forrest for three trains TO pass; but
the engineer, by some misunderstand-
ing. pulled out on the main line when
two trains had passed. About one
mile east of Forrest, when the train
was running at high rate of speed,
it collided with local freight gong
west, in charge of Engineer Henry
and Fireman Donnelly, at the rate of
thirty-five miles per hour.
The trains came together with a
terrific crash, piling on top OF each
other. When the smoke and dust
had cleared only two men could be
found-the conductor on the material
train and brakeman-whose names
could not be learned. Two wrecklng
trains were AT once sent to the scene,
one from Lynchburg and the other
from Roanoke, which at once began
work TO clear away the debris.
The first bodies recovered were
those OF Harris ana Mays, lne engineer
and fireman on the material train.
both of which were horribly mangled
and scalded. Next was Engineer
Henry. who was scalded until the flesh
dropped from his face and arms, pre-
senting horrible sight. Afterwards
the bodies of the brakemen, who We're
all colored, were found i'll different
parts of the wreck All the bodies
have been recovered so far as known,
except that of Fireman Donnelly, OF
Roanoke.
1t is conjectured that he was coal
inc the engine at the time of the ca
tastrophe, and his body will, proba-
bly,, be found in the furnace of his
locomotive. The only reason given
for the engines coming together at
such speed is that the engine of the
work-train was running backward,
so that no light could be thrown from
it,
The loss to the railroad is estimated
at from two hundred and fifty 10 three
hundred thousand dollars The con
ductor on the work train seems to be
the only person who discovered the
danger in time to jump from the train,
thereby escaping with only a few
bruises. One brakeman miraculOusly
escaped without injury.

Another Burko Victim.

Bunko swindlers are operating in
the Cumberland Valley. Friday even
ing George Getter, rich farmer liv-
ing near Carlisle, was visited by two
well-dressed strangers, who ostensibly
desired to buy his farm for some
friends They talked TO him about it
and asked him what he held his prop
erty at. They left, but returned Sat
urday and induced the farmer TO play
u game of cards with them, the game
being three-card monte. One of the
strangers bet and won $4,000. Get
ter tried his luck and he, too, won
$4,000. The sharper who had lost
produced large roll of money and
proposed to pay his debts if his friend
and the farmer could produce an
equal sum. Before leaving they fieeced
Getter out of $1,000 They made
similar attempt on a number of other
farmers. They represented themselves
to be New York merchants.

A Neat Thing in Snake Stories.

While at a neighbol's, few weeks
ago, Mr. George w. Fisher, of hide
pendence, Kan, heard Z racket out in
the kitchen, and on going out TO in
vestigate the cause found that u large
rattlesnake had crawled into the
kitchen and was fastened in the han
die of jug in the following manner:
There were some eggs and a jug on the
floor when the snake crawled into the
house, and it swallowed one of the
eggs, and, as the jug was lying on its
side, had crawled through the handle
as far as the egg he had swa lowed
would admit, and, finding another egg
convenient as he crawled through the
handle of the jug, swallowed that Il lso,
and as the egg was too large to pass
through the handle of the jug, Mr..
Snake was fastened so he could Meth
er move forward nor backward, there
being an egg inside of him on either
side of the Jug handle.-KanSas City

The Nominees.

The result of the Democratic prima.
ries i'm Jefferson county last Saturday
was the selection of first class men for
nominees for the various county of
fees. The nominees for the House of
Delegates are Mr.. Braxton Davenport
Gibson and Col. II. p. Chew, both OF
Charlestown. Mr.. Gibson is a young
gentleman well qualified, both as to
ability and character, for the position
he will undoubtedly be elected to in
November, and he will be credit TO
his coanty and his party; Col. Chew
has already served the people in the
same capacity, and although his
course the last term was not approved
of by many of his constituents, it Is
believed and hoped that there will be
no further cause for dissatisfaction in
this regard. The two sherilfalty tickets
were composed of our best men, and
the vote was CORRESPONDENCE close III
the county. The ''old ticket was sue
cessful, and will undoubtedly give sat
isfaction. Mr.. f. w. Brown was re-
elected Prosecuting Attorney, as evil
dence that his conduct of the office
has been satisfactory to the voters
Messrs. Il. A. Alexander and Charles
II. Trail, our popular Assessors, were
reelected by handsome majorities-
the desire for II change as to those of
fees not being very strong. The Com
missioners chosen were John Il. Glib
son from Charlestown district, L. But
Ter Moore from Harpers Ferry dis
trict. and w. II. II. Lewis from Kable-
town district-who practically had no
opposition. $. Howell Brown was re-
elected Surveyor.
Hon. VIM H. Wilson, of course, car
ried the county, and his nomination
at Keyser on Wednesday puts him be-
fore the Democrats of this district as
their candidate. Mr.. Charles II. Knott
also carried this county, and was NOM
mated at Martinsburg on Monday.
Judge Frank Beckwith was likewise
endorsed by Jefferson county, but
Berkeley and Morgan counties being
solid for Hon. Joseph S. Duckwall for
the judgeship, the latter gentleman
was nominated by the convention at
Martinsburg.
Taken all in all, a splendid set of
candidates have been chosen, and
Democrats can find no excuse for not
supporting the entire ticket. It's true
that excellent men were defeated, but
such is the fortune of politics. Now
let all turn in and work together, and
roll up such majorities for the nomi-
nees that there will be no question as
to their election in November
Stick to the nominees.

A Great Flood at Wheeling.

4 fearful storm deluged the city OF
Wheeling on Thursday of last week,
and death and disaster followed III Its
train. At six o'clock the storm burst
in the northwest, and for the ensuing
two hours rain fell as it never fell be-
fore in Wheeling 1t seemed as though
waterspout had been turned loose
upon the city, and streets were turned
in ten minutes time into swift-run
ming torrents, which no man could
breast in safety. AS soon as the size
of the storm and its capacity for mis-
chief was fully realized i'll the city
there was the greatest anxiety as to
the fate of the people living i'll the
narrow valleys throughout the lnte-
rior of the county, and especially
along the valley of CaldwelTs and
Boggs' runs, two small streams that
enter the city from Narrow Valley
Both these streams have a large pop
ulation crowded along their banks
Hardly had the rain ceased at seven
O'Clock before the waters of Caldwell's
Run began to rise with fearful rapid
ity. At six o'clock it was babbling
brook, which a child could ford at
any point. At seven o'clock it was a
raging torrent, twenty feet deep and
two hundred feet wide, and as it en-
tered the city limits swept through
hundred houses with irresistible
fury. Half a dozen families were
carried away.
There were in the Hawly residence
Mrs. Hawley and her four children
three boys and one girl. All were
swept away with the house and were
drowned At the Stensel house there
were more-Mr. Stensel, the mother,
a son, daughter, and two nieces, the
Misses Alice and Annie Vineyard, of
williamsburg, Ohio, who were visiting
at the home All these were likewise
lost, as well as John Holman, a young
man who was opposite the house on
horseback at the time, and went 10
the assistance of the family.
In the city about eight o'clock a
large crowd gathered on the Market
street stone bridge and on the wooden
b. 4 O. Railroad bridge near by to
watch the seething flood in the creek.
At two minutes of nine O'Clock the
middle pier OF the railroad bridge was
carried away, but the crowd seemed
to think there was no danger, and
half-past nine the bridge suddenly
sank into the creek, taking about
fifteen people with it.
The best estimates make the NUM-
Der of drowned about %. Several
cemeteries were washed out and cot
fins containing the bodies swept away
on the flood
The fall of water from 6 to 6.55
Thursday by gauge at Triadelphia
was 81 inches. Every resident of low
grounds in the entire valley suffered
damage ranging from 800 to $4,000,
while even those on the hills lost val
liable crops, fences, etc. The Balti-
more and Ohio Company's loss will
reach $3.50, 900 at low estimate. The
county's loss in roads and bridges and
schoolhouses will be at least $50, 1000.
1t is estimated that the total loss will
reach S1,500,000

A curious polecat story comes from

Swept Over Niagara Falls.

\ dispatch from Niagara Falls gives
the following particulars of u sad oc-
currence there last Thursday: Mrs.
u. j. Tully, young and handsome
married woman, lost her life this after
noon by going over the American
Falls. Mrs Tully was % years old,
and came here with her husband from
Macon, Ga, few months ago. Tn
known to her husband, she accepted
an invitation to go out sailing with
Will Ii. Barber, whose mother keeps
the Grand Trunk ticket-ofiice in the
International Hotel. They started
early from Port Day, and had gone
quite a distance up the river when in
making a tack, Barber let 20 the sail,
is weak physically, and Mrs. Tully
was badly frightened. They drifted
down the river toward the cataract,
slowly getting nearer the upper
rapids. Their predicament was dis
covered by the crew of Sherman l.
Jewetts Buffalo yacht Fatima, and u
small boat was sent III all haste to
their aid. 1t was an emergency that
required steady hand and quick and
decisive work. The rescuers succeeded
in reaching the overturned boat, 10
which Mrs. Tully and Barber were
clinging in desperation. Barber was
rescued, but Mrs. Tully let go from
the capsized yacht, to which she had
been clinging, and slipped down into
the water Her hat was seen several
hundred feet down the rapids, and at
6.15 her body almost lifelesS, passed
under the Goat Island bridge,
going over the American Falls few
seconds later Her husband left the
bridge few minutes before this, hav-
ing been there with his partner watch
ing for it. Mrs. FULLY had been mar
ried three years. She had the repu-
tation of being the handSomest bru-
