DUNBAR MINE DISASTER.
Verdict of the Coroner's Jury Censures

Verdict Disapproved.

Verdict of the Coroner's Jury Censures
the Superintendent of the Mine-The
Verdict Disapproved.
DUNBAR, Pa, July IL. The coroner's
Jury in the case of the Hill Farm disas
ter yesterday rendered the following
verdict: Daniel Shearin came to his
death while in the discharge of hiss duty
as fire boss in the Hill Farm mine on
July Is, 1890, by being suffocated with
after-damp, smoke caused by an ex.
plosion of gas by John Kerwin opening a
drill hole in an unlawful manner, under
directions and by order of Robert Lang,
Superin tendent, and said Robert Lang
is criminally responsible in causing the
death of said Daniel Shearin. David
Hay came to his death in the discharge
of his duty, in trying to rescue his son
in the Hill Farm mine on the 10th Of
June, 1890, by being suffocated with
after-damp and smoke caused by an ex-
plosion of gas by John Kerwin opening
drill hole in an unlawful manner
under direction and by the order Of
Robert Lang, superintendent, and
we believe said Robert Lang is crimi-
nally responsible in causing the death
of said Dauid Hay"
The public feeling is against the ver-
dict. The laboring people say the blame
should not be laid on Mr.. Lang, who has
always been faithful in his duty in
looking after the safety and welfare Of
his employees, and that similar mistake
was liable to be made by anyone under
the same circums tances.

NEW YORK, July 12.-The Sun, re-
ferring to the defeat of August Bel
mont's mare Fides by Tulla Blackburn
at Monmouth Park on Saturday last
says Mr.. Belmont did not intend to per-
nit the mare to start in the race, as the
track was entirely too heavy for her,
but some one sent a telegram from New
York to Mr.. Galway, q member of the
Monmouth Park executive committee,
and signed Belmont" asking Mr., Gal
way to "be sure to see that all of my
horses start to-day"
This telegram now proves to have
been a forgery. Upon the strength of
it Fides was started and not only suf-
fered her first defeat of the year, but
was so worn out by the race that she
has since broken down hopelessly. 1t
is believed that the bogus telegram was
sent by some one interested in the
betting, the object being to secure bet
ter odds against Tulla Blackburn than
could have been obtained If Fides had
not started

The late Hon. J. F. Trumbull, of Connecticut,
as called 1.-THE friend of the soldiers because
it was through his influence that water was fur
nished to sick and wounded soldiers while trav-
cling during the war. This practice has further
developed into the universal American habit OF
drinking ice wateTou ALI available occAsioasf
So universal has this become that it may be
called our national habit. and it ha, begotten a
craving for ice-water thai is quite appalling.
The introduction OF the watereooler in offices is

ease ard its cold action on the stomach checks
digestion. lowers The tOue OF TIE stomach and
brings about 6y dyspepsia, vi h al its attendant
ills. This evil, when is the cause of more sum
mer sickness and kidney disease than any other
known cause can readily be avoided by mixing
a little pure whisky with the drinking water
Thus the stomach can be stimulated into
healthy action ana its tone retained. Not only
this but pure whisky mixed with the water
kills the germs of any disease that may be Turk
ing in the water, and thus avoids malaria and
the thousand ills which come during the heated
term. But while whisky is q great benefit, it
must be pure whisky, and unfortunately there
is little pure whisky N the market. There can
be not the slightest doubt, however, as to the
absolute purity of Duffy's Pure Malt. 1t has
stood the test of time. II is used by the leading
men and women of the land. 1t is so pure in
its nature that it cannot harm even child, and
il is doing more than any one thing TO check
summer dangers. Be sure to secure the genu-

In connection with this singular animal
should not be omitted, viz: that its dung is
universally used for fuel in Bolivia and many
parts of Peru. 1t burns as readily as wood.
gives out great deal of heat, has no odor
and can be bought at the rate of sixty
cents per hundredweight therefore it is
highly priced in tree!ess sections, where
coal costs from $50 to S4S per ton and the
only other alternative is kind of spopgy
fungus that grows on the mountains. A
great deal of complaint is just now rife in
LaPaz against the electric light company,
the citizens asserting that so much llama
dung Is consumed by its furnaces that
their supply of fuel will soon be ex-
hausted. Knowing it TO be in general use
in the kitchens of the country, the tourist
IN these parts ceases to insist on toast and
brOiled meats and becomes quite willing to
put up with the eternal stews and fries.
The commercial name of the fuel is taquia
and owing TO the habits of the animal 1t is
by no means difficult to gather. For ex-
ample, in certain places along every road
where llamas are driven, always at the
foot Of the hills and in these places only,
viii taquia be found-not an atom of il
anywhere else for miles around. The same
is true in corrals and fields where the ami

EMPEROR AND MARQUIS MEET.
A Proposed Alliance Between Germany
and England.

His imperial highness the Emperor Of Ger
many had conference with the Marquis of
Salisbury yesterday morning in his private sit
ting room at Osborne House. Though no par
ticulars as to what passed at their meeting have
30 far been made public, it is known that the
emperor is highly satisfied with the result
of the conversation, and 1t is believed that the
interview will lead 70 the drafting of a conven-
ton between England and Germany by means
of which England will avoid formally joining
the triple alliance, but will undertake to sup
port Germany in the maintensnce of the peace
Of Europe.
The Marquis Of Salisbury will remain at o.
borne today, in order to confer with the queen
on the details of the convention, which may be
described as family alliance. Shortly before
noon the kaiser embarked ON a steam barge
and went on board the Hohenzollern, where he
held reception of his royal relatives and the
members OF the Royal Yacht Squadron.
After taking leave of the queen the emperor
will dine with the Prince Of Wales on board the
royal yacht Osborne and ut midnight he will
leave in the Hohenzollen for Heligoland, where
he will arrive Sunday and present himself to
his newly acquired subjects.
