before one had u chance to recollect
whether it would be etiquette to catch
such an article belonging to lady TO

bricks, caught the parachute in the

1t to the fair loser with low bow,
said: i" Faith, madam, II you were as
strong as you are handsome. 1t

ST. PAUL, Mimi, Jan. 25.-The hotels are
all full for the opening Of the third winter
carnival here this afternoon, and with tine
mild weather and the elaborate program
prepared, the outlook for ten days of frosty
frolic is most favorable. Preparations are
much better advanced than at either prV
vious opening.
The ice palace was finished Saturday; the
ice statuary, Of which there viii be many
fine groups, Isl well ON toward completion;
some seven thousand street lamps are in
place; the clubs have been drilling for weeks
the Indians are camped around the palace
the cable ears are running, and the floats are
ready.
The ice palace stands on the same site as in
former years, Central park, and occupies a
space of 200 feet square, and rises to height
of 1870 feet. No timbers or supports of any
kind are used, the only material being ice
1t is built in the Medieval STYLE and has a
profusion of towers, keeps, bastions and tur-
rets. In its building upwards of 60,000,OO0
pounds of ice have been used. The general
appearance of the palace is at once majestic
and ethereal, and, when lit up by thousands
of electric globes of various colors, will pre-
sent a beautiful appearance.
This afternoon his imperial highness, Du-
rant Borealis, rex, will receive the golden
keys and enter into possession. The pageant
attending the reception and installation of
the ice king will be one of unusual magnifi-
cence, several thousand uniformed subjects
of his majesty taking part.

coLLlERY EXPLOSION.
Horrible Fate of Fifty-Seven Miners AT
Victoria, Is. G.

VICTORIA B. c., Jan. 25.-An explosion
occurred in No. 5 pit of the Wellington col
leries yesterday morning, by which over
fifty lives were lost. A dense mass of Gust
and smoke shot into the air The noise of
the explosion was similar to the report of a
large cannon. The fan house was destroyed,
also the woodwork i'll the shaft. The fan
house was quickly repaired and the fan
started
The shaft tiInbers were SO badly damaged
that the cages could not be used, but ropes
were Immediately lowered. The first miner
to come out of the pit had climbed by means
of the cage wire cable to within one hundred
feet of the top. A rope was then lowered to
him. and he cached the surface exhausted.
A second miner was also rescued by this
method, but the third when within fifty feet
of the top suddenly relaxed his hold and fell
to the bottom of the pit. Two men were
then lowered as a searching party. They re-
turned, and stated that nothing could be
heard but calls from below.
Fortunately the mine had not taken fire.
A temporary cage was made and lowered to
a considerable depth, the miners climbing to
it by means of ladders SO that l03 of the 106
miners were rescued. The unfortunate who
had fallen back into the pit was taken out
dead. The explosion took place in the last
level, and in this twenty-five white miners
and a number of Chinese were imprisoned
At a. m all the white men who were at
work We're carried out dead, and the taking
out of Chinese began.

desired thst the American workingman
should retain his superiority over the under
paid lAborer of Europe, such obstacles would
have to be interposed from time to time as
would deter the influx Of those who would
degrade American labor by undue competi-
ton.
Much Ind been done for the United States
and for American laborers and artisans by
the duties imposed on foreign manufactured
goods, but that very process had stimulated
immigration; and that immigration, al
though in the main beneficient, now threat
ened If continued, without selection, to ag-
gravate existing evils and to lower the stand
ard Of the American people, by lowering the
wages of those who toiled.
A conviction was growing, said Mr.
Palmer, that the country with its sixty mil
lion of population and its fifty millions of
wealth, had passed beyond the need of immi-
grafton; and that it was time to go out of
the asylum business; time to cease to be a
dumping ground for the vicious, delinquent
human product of other nations The object
Of this bill was to provide for the exclusion
of dependent, delinquent and dangerous
classes, through an inspection and investiga-
tionin their own countries, instead Of at the
ports of entry and to effect this with the
least possible hardship or Inconvenience to
desirable immigrants
He quoted extensively from the United
States consular reports to show the undesira-
bic character of large classes Of immigrants
from Europe; referred to the Chicago riot as
result of the introduction of Anarchists
and their teachings and concluded by saying
that while his bill was not all that could be
desired, it was a step in the right direction.
It would make the evasion of the existing
laws on the subject more difficult, and would
compel what was demanded by tho enlight-
ened sentiment of the American people--a
moral quarantine
On the conclusion Of Mr.. Palmers remarks
the bill was referred to the committee on for
ajpn relations
