the chairman of the committee
conducting the investigation a
written statement concerning
the campaign documents printed
at the government Office during
the canvass of 1894. Accordinc

done under the direction of William
Nj. Miller, then foreman of the specifi-
cation room. After the office was sup
posed to be closed, Miller, the foreman.

remained in the establishment and put
the campaign thunder in type.
The principal one was the letters in
the famous scandal. Another was
General Logan's speech accepting the
nomination as vice president. These
were put to press at night and were
subsequently folded in the specification
room. Suspicion was first attracted by
the circumstance that Hodes, who
was preparer of copy and had
nothing to do at a case, was observed
several times in the act of distributing
type when he should have been at work
at his regular duties. Later it was dis
covered that he was distributing mat
ter tied up and concealed under an i'm
posing stone and several of the com
positors examined the matter and dis
covered its character.

A TERRIBLE EXPLOSION
A Ferry Steamer Blows Up, With Loss
of Many Lives.

VALLEJO, Cal, Feb. 28.1ISpecial. l.
Just as the ferry steamer Julia was
about to leave the docks at South
Vallejo there was a sudden and loud
explC sion, and a huge sheet of hame
burst through the decks. There vert
70 passengers on board the boat at the
decks. Many of them were
killed outright, others drowned in the
water, while Others were fatally injured
by being struck by splinters from the
wreck. The boat caught fire ano
burned to the waters edge. Large oil
vats on the docks also became ignit, d
and burned The iremen were pOwe
less. A large number of boat men
eXerted themselves to save the lives
those persons struggling in the wa +,
lut were only partially successful. Al
ready IL bodies have been recovered,
and it is believed that no less than %
others are missing. The number of
dead may reach ~. Many of the deau
bodies recovered are mangled beyond
recognition. The excitement in town
when the news of the disaster had
spread was intense. The steamer
burned oil as a fuel, and it is believed
that the fire communicated with a pet
rOleum tank, causing the explosion.
The Coroner is holding an inquest.
LATEST NEWS OF THE HORROR.
VALLEJO, Cal, Feb. 2S.-[Special. +
Eight OF the men killed by
the steamer Julia explosion yesterday
had wives and families and five were
single. The searchers are still at work
on the wreck, trying to find more
missing men. Mrs. Ferryur, wife
of the gunner at the Mare Island
many years, seems to have been the
only woman on board. She is badly
scalded about the head and arms. The
list of unrecoyered bodies is now
thought to number eleven. 1t is sup
posed that this is exclusive of the crew
of tifty-two passengers on board, max
ing sixty-three in all, and not a single
one escaped without injury more or
less serious.

LECTURING ON LIBBY.

Rev. Smith, of Canton, has ben lee
turing round the county, relating his
experience in Libby prison during the
late war. His account is narrowing
and the wonder is that the gentleman
has survived so long in good health. 1t
reminds us of the old lady at a tea
party where they were talking of little
infants at BIRTH At last one good old
soul got chance and said when she
was born she was so very small they
could have put her in pint cup. An
other old lady astounded by the cir
cumstance, screamed out: "And did
you liye?"
But, seriously, it was cruel wrong
that prisoners were not exchanged
No doubt prisoners suffered, both
north and south; and such is the fate
of war. In fact, as old Ben. Franklin
said-"There never was a good war nor
bad peace" Some preachers, like
Rev. Smith, may not believe it, but
nevertheless, old Ben was pretty SEN
sible man. lie ranked as a philosopher
during his life, and still occupies a
niche III the temple of fame.
The reverend gentleman is his own
hero in his lecture of course. He is
not like the poet Byron, troubled to
find hero. In Don Juan the noble
poet says, 81 want a hero" No doubt
the reverend SnNth is well pleased with
his hero, and is more and more satisfied
Herewith every time he looks in the
mirror. The Smith family have turned
out men of renown. Captain John
Smith, of Pocahontas time, was one.
1t is an extensive family and has rep
resentatives in every department of
life. Reverend Smith was probably
not the only Smith in Libby, and doubt
less many poor Southerner inanorth-
ern prison would have been made glad
by being exchanged for Smith, thus
making two glad

An Indiana Woman Who Fit in the War

Much interest is centered in Mrs. Hook
er, wellknown lady here, who aD-
peared before a pension board n
made formal claim to pension, based
on the facts that she was an enlisted
soldier of the war and served three
years and was twice wounded. At the
breaking out of the war, Mr.. Hooker
was appointed First Lieutenant and
his wife accompanied him to the front.
She was enabled to do this by a clever
strategy. A Young man who bore a
resemblance to her was induced to sub
nit himself to the necessary examiua-
tion and when an opportunity pre-
sented itself the young woman, prop
erly uniformed, exchanged places with
him. With her husband she has lived
here several years and is Familiarity

with much curiosity.
