/ to the journal from Wyaudotte. Mich,
SAYS: At 6 10 this morning the boiler

leaves n widow and five children.
Patrick Finn, twenty-five years of
age and unmarried

A number were seriously injured.
Had the explosion occurred half an
hour later there would have been at

for the men.
Some of the injured are: Lett
Curtis, n heater, burned about the
face and hands.

E. Shaney, helper, burned about
the face.

Several others were more or less
hurt by the missiles flying about the
mill.
The explosion was terrific. The
CRATE plate mill, 80 by 100 feet, with
q roof sixty feet from the floor, was
blown to fragments. 1t is all but
miraculous that the loss of life was
not greater. 4 piece of the boiler,
weighing nearly six tons, was blown
across Eureka avenue, a distance ot
1000 feet, striking Brennan's brick
store and Post office. tearing out a
large hole in the wall.
The second boiler was lifted by the
explosion almost intact and carried
fifty feet. On one end of the boiler
rested great section of the iron
roof From under this and behind
a mass of splintered wood, twisted
iron and shattered brick came the
most pitiful moaning and cries. Part
of the ruins were in flames. The
hose was brought out and water
turned on for q minute or two before
any attempt could be made to rescue
the imprisoned men. Then Finn.

place. Along Spring Greek, IN this
county, settlers are badly stampeded,
and some thirty or forty came into
Rapid City. yesterday, seeking safety.
As many nore are said to have gone
to Hermeso. This scare is caused BY
the experience of a raneher named Mike
Quinn, who went on the reservation at
ter some cattle.
A party Of Sioux from the Pine
Ridge agency stopped him and would
not allow him to remove his cattle.
He was told to return about the mid
die of June and the Indians would
help him drive the cattle off the re
serve. Tie spread the news along
Spring Greek and frightened the peo-

Ii the General Assembly in Phil
adelphia, a preacher named Paxton
from New York, when the question
of the relation of the negro was be-
fore the Assembly, said God curse
the day when the Negro came to
America" His remarks created a
profound sensation. The next day
he attempted to explain himself and
said. he meant to condemn the day,
when Massachusetts brought the Ne
GRO to America. When the Rev.
MIR. Paxton proposes to speak on
historical events, 1t would be well tc

a peculiar people, but they should
not be charged with what they con

The Agricultural Board of Illinois,
says They find cut worms of var
ious species more numerous this year
throughout central and southern
Illinois than he has ever known them
before. The fact is due doubtless
to the dry weather of the last three
years The root web worm is also
especially abundant and likely to join
with the cut worm in doing serious
mischief when corn is planted after
again. The same circumstances which
have promoted the development of
the cut worm are likewise favorable
