/ The men were right and the
employers wrong, and Judge
Thurm 8r'stood by the men. The
reasoning upon which his con-
clusion was based was<so clear
that the operators could not re

ately resumed, work upon the
terms they had demanded. The
Judge was the recipient of many
resolutions and letters Of. thanks
from laborlng organizations
throughout the United States.
Immediately after Judge Thur

preamble and resolution were
adopted unanimously by the

This happy settlement Of a
great dispute resulted in a furth-
increase of miners wages, in the
Hooking Valley districts. and
the compensation as now fixed is
Is cents for winter mining and
70 cents for summer mining. We
have no doubt that the thous-
ands of miners of Ohio and their
brethren throughout the country
will remember with their votes
the justice done TO them by AL.

BURNED TO A CRISP.
Eleven Persons Perish in the
Flames.
A Texas Hotel Burns and All but Two of Its
Inmates are Cremated-Grief in
Rockdale, Texas

RocKDALE, Texas, June 4.-This morning
at few minutes before o'clock, the NTundine
hotel, three story brick building, was found
to be on fire, and according to those who were
fist on the ground it was all on fire at once.
Inside We're thirteen souls, only two of whom
escaped alive. DIR. w. A. Brooks, proprietor,
was pulled out of the building with his hair and
beard singed off and otherwise badly burned,
leaving behind him his wife and four children
who persisted. Pemberton Pierce, represent
ing the firm of George II. Ziegler, of Philadel-
phia, jumped from the burning building and
was killed. d. NJ. Oldham, of Dallas, repre-
senting the firm of E. Cannon s. Co., Calves
ton. escaped badly singed.
The mystery about the thing is that so many
should have persisted when none were higher
up than the second story and there were gailer-
les and exits on both sides of the building oc-
cupied by the sleepers. No one was heard to
call or scream, all dying without cry for help,
though great crowd quickly gathered and ex-
hausted every effort to afford a rescue. The
romans OF several have been recovered from
the ruins, but they are unacceptable. A
great pail rests over Rockdale and every bust
ness house is closed. Pierce is the only victim
not ia resident of Rookdaie. The Mundine house
was valued at $4,000 and was insured for
S1,5O0. L. B. Kemp, whose store occupied
part OF the building, was completely burned

the falling walls of the hotel, but his stock was

WHEN THE TWILIGHT COMES.
Seven Scenes Which Tell of the Life of
Woman.

NJ. G. r. in the New Orleans Pcayune.
A wee mother is carefully putting her favor
tie doll to bed With tender solieitude she removes
each dainty garment and fastens the tiny night
gown. Then, with a fond kiss, she hugs her treas
ure to her and places it in its little cradle. After
patting it for moment gently she tptoes out Of the
room as the twilight peeps curiously into it.
A fair maiden stands before her lookingglass add
ing the last touches to her evening toilet Her lover
will soon be here! Her eyes are full of innocent
lovelght She looks eagerly at her reflection in the
glass; How glad she is that she Is pretty She frowns
little at acrimp that will not stay just it should
ring comes at the door, and she hastens away in
the gathering twilight to meet her beloved.
A young wife sits anxiously watching for her hus-
band At each approaching footstep her heart
beats rapturously and then grows heavy with dis
appointment! She will not go indoors 1t is so sweet
out thereI The creeping shadows cheer her trenl-
bling sonl-so she waits and wishes and the shed
ows lengthen into darkened night.
A mother is rocking her baby to sleep. He looks
at her gravely while they move to and fro as if ask
ing why the bright sunshine must leave and the
ugly shadows hide her dear face from him. There
is a wealth of wisdom in his great sweet eyesl He
holds tightly TO her dress as If to keep her near
himl
When at last his eyes are closed, she dlsengages
the loving hand, kisses him lightly-he must not be
awakened-and arises to put him into his crib. Then
she sinks back into her chair and begins rock him
again. 1t is pleasant to rest in the twilight and
he is 50 sweet TO nurse!
A woman kneels by q fresh-made grave. The
headboard stares cody at her and seems TO say
and over again the words inscribed upon it: "He
was her only child and she was a widow"
With tear-lAdened eyes she bends down lower and
lower till her lips rest upon the earth She longs
to kiss the quiet form it IS hiding from her And
the twilight to hurry past her aud gladly lose
itself in the darkness.
A care-woFn old woman sits watching the shadows
come-they are friends 70 herfFiends that she well
comes-for they always sing the same song to her,
zone day nearer home" And as she smiles 10 them
her thanks She too repeats "One day home"
And so life-womans life-gocs on in the twilight
TIL rest comes to her weary body and joy TO her
waiting hearttill her home, where
never shadow can fall upon 1t.

BLACkMAN'S ESCAPE.
A Thrice-Convicted Murderer at
Large.

AMERIcUs, Ca, June7.-[Speeial.l- CHARLES
BlackmaD, the murderer of Stonewall Tondee,
and who was confined in the county Jail here
under sentences of death, effected his escape
last night by means of q cell key given him by
a confederate.
Great excitement prevailed when 1t became
known today that the black fiend was
at liberty, and no little indigna-
tion was expressed at the action
of the Jail officials in allowing any and every
body to visit the prisoner, unaccompanied by
a guard. The county commissioners have
offered reward of $3.50 for the apprehension
and delivery of the murderer.
.Schley County Indignant.
ELLAvILLE, Ga, May Especial. l-Our
sheriff has just received telegram from Mr..
Cobb, deputy sheriff of Sumter county, saying
that Charles Blackman, the murderer of Stone
wall Tondee, who has been confined in the jail
at Americus for safe keeping, made his escape
last night by means of false keys.
This negro has been convicted three times
of murder, and twice granted new
trial by the supreme court. News was received
yesterday of the judgmentof the superior court
being affirmed by the supreme court. Our peo-
pie are loud in their denunciation of the jailer
of Sumter in allowing him to escape, Some
even go SO far as to say that it is impossiblefor
such thing to happen without the assistance
of the jailer.
Any way it seems as If we certainly selected
the wrong Jail and wrong jailer. A fear is
upon our people that he will return and kill
others here. A lion loose in our midst would
not begin to create as much alarm as the free
dom of this fiend incarnate. We can do moth
ing except to curse those who are responsible
for his escape, and we are not slow in doing

appearance. The sun at noon shone like %

What was the probable cause of these

Ben Buffers Match.

From the New York World.
While Butler was governor of Massachusetts
he was retained as counsel for young man whose
vie had sued him for divorce grounds of cruelty.
The wronged wife's sister, young girl Of twenty,
was the principal witness for the prosecution, and
General Butler succeeded in robbing her story of
the desired effect by sharp and irritating cross
examination. After many interruptions the Wit
ness said that the defendant had been seen 10 shy
a book at his wfes head"
"Shy2 Shy book? What do you mean by than
VIII you explain to the court what the word shy
means?"
The young girl leaned over the railing and asked
her sisters counsel fol copy Of "Cushing's Man
l3l !" which lay On the desk before him. She
hurled the volume at General Buffers head with
all the force she could command. II was good
shot, and, had not the governor OWNED her pur-
pose in time, it would undoubtedly have hit the
mark.

of the word shy said the judge, and the girl was
allowed 70 finish her testimony without further In
