Romance OF Long Lost Mine.

twill be remembered by old timers
the excitement engendered in 1866 by
the silver bearing rock brought to Fort
simcoe, Washington, by an old Indian
named Zokescye. During that summer
Mortimer Thorpe, Charles A. Splawn and
Others put In their undivided time look
ing for the mine. A man named Walker
gained the confidence of Zokescye, who
promised to reveal the location OF the
treasure; but Walker, after visiting the
rock, which showed up marvelously rich,
died before again reaching this place, and
zokeseye dying soon afterward the secret
was lost. Since then there have been
many searching parties for the ledge, and
probably no one has been moro persistent
In the hunt than Captain j. 7. Simmons,
Of Yakima, who on Wednesday returned
from the mountains with -four sack full
OF specimens, and, with some pardonable
mystery, claims he has found the long
sought Zokcseye mine. He says IT is no
wonder the location has not before been
rediscovered, as the place is so inaccessi-
bic that even his shepcrd dog could not
follow him to it. The rock has been
deposited in the First National hank, and
Is the wonder of these who are CON-
petent to judge ore. Experts say II will
yield 600 per ton. Yakima Herald.

ANOTHER RAILROAD WRECK.
Twenty or More People Injured a
South Norwallt, CT.

Another serious railroad smash-up, al
though, happily, one not followed by fatal
results, occurred In South Norwalk, CT,
night or two ago. Twenty or more people
were more or less injured, and two pas EN-
ger coaches were wrecked The accident,
so far as can I've learned, was brought about
by the negligence or carelessness of a gate
tender, who failed to display his signals of
danger.

Housatonlc road, consisting OF a baggage
car mail and smoking car and three pas.

The sharp curve between the station and the
drawbridge, and went crashing into the
Housatonic cars, partially demolishing two
of them and throwing others from the
track
The engineer had seen his danger when
too late to avoid collision, but In time 10 re-
verse the lever and prevent what otherwise
would have resulted In great loss OF life. The
force Of the collision was terrific and was
heard In the borough nearly two miles away.
As 1t was, only the passengers occupying the
second rear car OF the Housatonic train were
injured, although the shaking up was
general.

is THE MAGELLAN LOST?
Reports that Fine Boston Ship Has
Gone Down With a Valuable Cargo.

Messrs. Hemenway & Browne Of Boston
have received cable despatch from Valpa-
raise stating that the German barque Para,
at Valparaiso from Hamburg had passed in
lat. 81 south long. 63 west, some cases OF
petroleum floating about, which, from de-
scription, were identified as part of the
cargo of the Boston ship Magellan, Capt
Marshall, which sailed from Boston May 10
for Valparaiso, having been despatched by
the owners, Hemcnway & Browne, and hay-
ing on board very valuable cargo Of mis-
cellancous character.
The owners of the Magellan, while fearing
that the ship has been lost, entertain the
hope that she was overtaken by severe
storm, making it necessary to jettison por.
ton of the cargo as precautionary measure,
and that the cases of petroleum seen by the
Para were only those which were thrown
overheard for the purpose Of ayertiDg an
impending disaster.
The ship Magellan wss built at East Bos-
ton In 1873 was 1888 feet in length, 34.5
feet in breadth, go feet depth of hold and
registered 1010,45 tons net. The insurance
on the vessel, cargo and freight is placed in
Boston offices, as follows: $4,000 on YES
sci, $4,000 on cargo and $4,000 on the
vessels freight money.

AN ENGLISH OPINION.
MIR. Mundella Declares the Mckinley
Bill an "Insane Measure"

The Right Honorable A. J. Mundells, NJ.
F., formerly president Of the board Of trade,
speaking at Sheffield, London, declared that
the Mckinley bill was an insane measure,
and one that would be most injurious to
American consumers, and likely to prove
destructive to its promoters. But he advised
Englishmen to remain quiet In regard to the
measure. 1t would be absurd to retaliate by
taxing food imports, especially when there
was prospect of famine In Ireland. II
the people only waited, free trade would rl-
timately triumph, even In America.

DEMOCRATIC EVIDENCE.

The Saginaw Globe, of Democratic
proclivties, does not see much to admire
in the way the Arkansas election was
conducted. The truth will out and 1t
says:
There are good many people in
Arkansas who are IN need of such in
struction in civilization as courts and
jailers give.
The outrageous attempt made on
Saturday at Morrillton Station to dis
franchise voters by the violent seizure
of ballots seems not TO have been IN
stigated by race prejudice or ordinary
partlsanship. The contest 1t was de-
signed 10 affect Is one IN which the
color line Is completely broken, and
party affiliations considerably confused; /;
but TOR that very reason the outrage is
the more significant of an unclvillzed,
undemocratlc mood.
"Race prejudice, when aroused by
bitterness, may account tor, though 1t
can not excuse, many wrongs done
under intense excitement, which If
done under other circumstances must
be set down 10 the survival of remnants
of barbarism. In this case there was
not even the poor plea of an excited
race conflict, and the occurrence SIM
ply proves the utter unfitness of certain
classes of Arkansas population for self
government.
Elections must be fair and free or
there Is no such thing "a free govern.
ment. Men who seek TO carry cleo
tons by any form of force or fraud are
enemies of society, and must every
where be dealt with as such by the State
If Democratic institutions are TO sur
vlve."
But the instruction in civilization"
must come from outside of the state.
BY no process of natural selection" or
survival of the fittest" can the South
ern Democrat rise 10 the true standard
of civilization.
