A DANCE OF DEATH.

IN Roman tombs, where never ray
OF moonlight or the light of day -
Pierces the deep gloom of the dead,
Rare frescoes glimmer overhead
When tourist torches make them gay. s.,
And round the marble collins stray -.
Light, joyous shapes that mock the clay
Winged loves and gods who feast or wed
In Roman tombs.
And men who take unthinking way
Through life. and never praise or pray.
Are like the carver dancers led
Round old sarcophagi; they tread
Deaths maze to airs that phantoms play.

THE RETOLVTIONISTS.
Renewed Activity Among the
Bloody Reds Of Chicago.
HOLDING SECRET MEETINGS
And Drilling for Cory work-rhe
Chicago Police watching Them
closcly-Thc Trial of the Con-
spIrators Yesterday.

CHICAGO, Nov. 3O.-The following is
published here: On the day of the Ar
archist execution small band or
"bund" met in basement under a
Milwaukee avenue saloon not far from
Parsons old home, and each individual
present pledged his life bioodto revenge
the execution OF the four leaders.
That little "bund" has now developed
intoa number OF societies that meet at
dead of night in the rear Of the old
buildings, sometimes at the house of
one of the members, and when they
meet the foreign.tongued members re-
new their VOWS and talk OF the
bloody revolution which they
will some other day bring about. Like
the parts of mythical serpent which,
when struck, would fly to pieces and
afterward collect to form the body of
the, same snake, the Anarchists who
were scattered at the time Of the
execution have returned, formed them
selves into secret societies and
are banded together once more to do the
mischief they preach about. No one
knows this as well as Inspector Bonlield,
and he is giving his undivided and sole
attention to the secret and hazardous
work of following up the little societies
OF Anarchists, and keeping truck OF the
of their members.

WABASH, IND, Nov. SO.-There was
an explosion of natural gas here yester'
day, which produced considerable fright,
A lad named Miller noticed gas escaping
from a cutoff gate which was uncovered,
and getting down into the hole the
boy lighted a match. The force OF the
explosion lifted the lad up and threw
him whirling, like top, across the road.
He was slightly burned about the face,
A moment later there was Il frightful
roaring. The pipe n short distance away
had parted, and the force Of the explo-
sion threw up great shower OF dirt and
rocks, while the roar shook buildings in
the lower part OF the city. No serious
damage was done.

Driven From Three Countries He Comes
to Amcricn.
NEw York, Now 30.-Rabbi Heiman
Faust, late of Berlin, Germany, feels
that he is a greatly prosecuted man. AZ
ter being driven out of three countries
in Europe, and threatened with banish-
ment if he returned to his native land,
he turned his face toward America, ar.
irving on the French line steamer La
Champagne with his wife and seven
children on Sunday last. He related
his woes to a reporter yesterday.
He was born, he said, in Russian Po.
land thirty.nine years ago, and when but
a child went with his father, who was
also Rabbi, TO Prussia, to a place in
Silesia. He received n good education,
graduating from q Hebrew seminary at
Hanover. He discovered about that
time that his father had neglected to be-
come citizen Of Prussia, but, notwith.
standing this, the Prussian. government
would have obliged him to serve as a
soldier had not physical disabilities pre-
vented.
He became teacher and assistant
rabbi in n synagogue in Berlin, where he
remained for seventeen years. Near the
close OF 1874 he was suddenly notified by
the Berlin police authorities that he
must give up his position as he was not
a Prussian subject and must therefore
secure a special permit to teach. The
rabbi protested, and the matter remained
in allegiance until on February II, 1886
he was told by the Chief OF Police thai
they had discovered that he really was q
subject Of Germany, and no permit was,
therefore, necessary. He then accepted
u call to Wormdit, in East Prussia, and
on May %, 1885, he got another letter
from the police stating that the one oi
February was a mistake, and that he
must stop teaching forthwith, This wai
followed by a letter in the autumn o.
1885 from the Minister OF the interior

cast at Holidays Cove, in this county,
by parties who were non.residents. That
the Democrats protested, but their objec-
tons were over.ruled by the Republican
election officials. The Register does not
know that the Democrats had control OF
every election board in Hancock county,
nor that the County Courts Democratic,
standing two Democrats and one Repub-
lican. So that it is not likely that one
Republican could over-rule two Demo.
cratic election officials. And for the in
formation OF the Register and to show
how utterly groundless these charges are,
it may be OF interest for it TO learn that
there is no voting precinct at Holidays
Cove, nor has there been for ut least tif-
teen or sixteen years. 1t is very easy to
make charges, but quite another thing
to substantiate them, and il the Registers
charges OF fraud all over the State, are
as ridiculous us those against this coun-
ty, it is time for them to call a halt.

ABOUT THE MESSAGE.
Topics which the President il
Expected to Discuss.
THE TARIFF REFORM AGAIN.
Bat 1t will Not be the Sole Subject
Trcated-A LeAgthy Document.
Some orthc Recommendations
He Intends to Make.

WASHINGTON, D. G., Nov. 30.-tt il
understood that, in the message to be
transmitted to Congress next week, the
President will explicitly -eafIirm the
recommendation made in the tariff
message of 1887, but he will not confne
himseltto that one topic.
To large extent the document will
be review of the most important ques-
tions with which the present Admins
tration has had to deal, and pertinent
suggestions will be submitted looking
to the settlement OF some Of these ques-
tions that are still open.
Much space will bc given to review
OF our foreign relations, especially in
respect to the efforts OF the State De-
partment to bring about an adjustment
OF the Fisheries dispute, which was
thwarted by the action OF the Senate,
and a renewal OF the suggestion that ade.
quate power ofretalialion be given to the
Executive. Special mention will be
made OF tho administration Of the civil
service law, and its support and extern
sion will be recommended.
Allusions will be made to reforms in
the administration OF the postal service
and the extension OF its benefits, espe-
cially as TO the improved facilities in the
foreign mail service, by which saving
Of several days is made in the transmits
sion to the business Centers OF Europe,
and to the conventions with Mexico,
Central and South America, the West
Indies and Canada, for the exchange OF
by post.
Among the other important topics that
will be treated will be the rebuilding OF
the navy, for which generous appropria-
lions will be recommended; the reclama-
lion and preservation OF the public do
main for actual homestead settlers, and
The necessity for legislation looking to
he security OF the interests OF the Gov
in the Pacific railroads.
1t was understood that, although the
message will be very lengthy, it will be
ready for transmission when Congress
:onvenes, yet it will probably be with
leld until day or two later.
Congressman Mills says he does not
inow what the Presidents annual mes
'age will contain, or what its tone on the
Jubject Of tariff reform will be. He adds:
Il do know that his tariff message OF last
December was by no means bad politics.
We had carried the country on it before
he Doodle devil made its appearance.
in the tariff issue the Democrats carried
everything. 1t was Doodle that beat us.
It was felt in every Congressional dis
,rict. l felt in mine"

THE ANARCHIST TRIAL

ClllebOun ms n PcFJurer.
Chicago, Nov. 3O.-The trial of An
archist Hronek, charged with conspiracy
to murder the officers Of the law who
secured the execution Of the Haymarket
Anarchists, was resumed this morning.
The first witness was Mrs. Catherine
Capek, wife of one OF the alleged con-
spirators with Hronek. She declared
that the testimony OF Chleboun, the in
former, in regard to the meetings be-
tween Hronek and her husband were
untrue.
Hronek then took the stand and de-
MED that he had ever said that Schneider
made the bombs used by the suicide
Anarchist, Louis Lingg.
John Nelson and Richard Kerby,
dredgers, testified to the finding OF an
empty gas pipe bomb in the river near
the point where Hronek is supposed to
have thrown a number OF the missiles
into the stream.
After Attorney Fisher and an express
man named Janeck who drove the con-
spirators to Riverside to make the ex-
periments with bombs, had contra
dicted Chleboun's testimony on some
minor points Frank Capek, one of the
conspirators, was called and made gem
eral denial OF the charges in the evil
dence for the prosecution. He never
had any dynamite, and consequently
never showed any to Chleboun. Capek
said that he knew nothing OF the plot
for revenge and did not get any plan OF
the location of Judge Grinnel's house
He admitted going to Aldine square
July 4, but did not even know that
Judge Grinnell lived there. He also
denied having promised to ayenge
Hronek, II he should be arrested and
hung. After some further minor evil
dence was produced the court took re-

A TEREInLE DISASTER.
Eight Men Entombcd in the Calumet Mine.

Certain They are Dead.
CALUMET, MIcn., Nov. 30.-Fire was
discovered in the eighth level OF the No. 8
shaft OF the Calumet branch OF the Calu-
met and Ucla mine this morning. A
large party of men were working at the
time OF the fire, which, when discovered,
had made such rapid headway that the
smoke was terribly dense, and their
lives were in great danger. All made a
rush for the surface, but eight men are
missing. That they are dead is certain.
Among them are two Italians named Jo-
seph Mosoir and Toney Catawara. The
mine location is completely covered with
the dense smoke, aud the fire looks
worse than did the last, but being nearer
the surface it is believed the damage,
financially, will not be SO great.
The missing men are Joseph Masalaer,
Antony kattlars, John Vanderbilt and
Andrew Hanson and two others, names
unknown, Polander and Finlander
The eight.hour shift men went through
No. 3 at 10 o'clock but saw no fire. That
this is the villainous work OF an incen
diary is believed by all.
