BADLY BURNED.
Three Young Ladies Fatally Burned Mt
i. Akron, Ohio.

A horrible casualty occurred in Akron,
Ohio, during the celebration of bith-
day by nine young lady students of
Buchtel College. The girls were dressed
as Santa Claus, their dresses and heads
being covered with cotton batting. One
girl danced too near gas jet and the
cotton took fire. In an instant she
was enveloped in flames and the clothing
of the other girls was soon on
fire Three of them were perhaps
fatally burned. They are May Stevens,
Of Clifton Springs, N. T.; Lulu Steig-
meyer, Attica, o., and May Baker, Of
Fort of Plains, N. Y. The two first
named will surely die, while the recovery
of the last is doubtful. Addie Buchtel,
of Columbia Kan; Diana Haynes, of
Abilene, Kan; Aurelia Wierick, of Storm
Lake, Pa, and Myrtle Barker, of Peru,
Ohio, were also seriously burned. Miss
Dora Merrill and Miss Estelle MuDson,
teachers, received bad burns while try
ing to, extinguish the flames ON the
dresses Of the students.

TEKEIBLE AccIDENr.

In Attempting 20 Cross q Rsllroad Track
Several Persons Are stFuokby Train
and Killed.
A special from Bristol, Pa, says an
accident occurred ct the Mill street cross-
ing by which four persons were killed
and one seriously hurt The accident
was caused by the safety gates at the
crossing being raised just before the
New York westbound express was due.
A number Of persons were waiting for q
freight train TO pass, and as soon as the
gates werc raised, started to cross. A
wagon, in which there were five persons,
also attempted 10 cross. The express
train, which was running at full speed,
struck the wagon, instantly killing eil
McIlvaine, Joseph Hussey, and Azgh
Dever, and John McIlvalne received such
severe injuries that he will die. Joseph
johnson, who was crossing the track on
foot, was also struck and instantly
killed. John MCGEE, who was in the
wagon, was seriously, though not fatally,
injured. The gate keeper says he did
not hear the bell on the express. He
will probably be arrested.

Fight Among Indians.

A special from Pine Bidge Agency, S.
OAK, says: Tired of waiting for the
soldiers to come and get killed the In
diahs in the Bad Lands have begun
fighting among themselves. This news
was brought In by both government scouts
and friendly Indians, and is reliable.
The battle took place in an ampitheater
Of Grass Valley. Two Strike and his
followers circled around Short Bull and
his followers all the forenoon, actively
skirmishing, each leader is bound
that his supremacy as chief Of
the whole body should be ac-
knowledged. The killed are reported
all the way from twenty to forty. AS
the scouts and friendly Indians had to
escape during the confusion and the re-
suit of the skirmishing is not known.
Gen. Brooke sent Little Bat and FIVE
other Indians back with old Two Strike,
under the agreement made in the coun-
Gil that one should return each day and
report the progress Of the reds in com.
ing in. Not one Of those men have re-
turned but are held close prisoners Of
war. 1t is reported that Little Bat has
been killed but the report is not verified.

PROHIBITION IN KANsAS.

The people OF Kansas are to be
congratulated on what is confidently
hoped will be the final departure Of
the original package nuisance from
the state. Judge Caldwells decision
will undoubtedly stand the test in the
United States supreme court. Now
if we can have less hypocrisy and
more attention to duty on the part Of
the officers elected to enforce the laws,
prohibition in Kansas will be a fact
and not, as it has been, a farce Any
law can be brought into disrepute
through the hypocrisy and treachery
Of officers, whose duty it is to enforce
it; and that is now most notoriously
the case with the Kansas prohibitory
law. If we are to have prohibition
in the state, let us have it and let our
officers enforce all laws on the statute
books. When the people want the
laws changed they know how to
change them Let us have no more
official dereliCtion of duty.

A CASE OF CRAMPS.

The Kansas Democrat had spasms
on the Both OF October because OF the
publication in THE ADVOCATE of a
communication from correspondent
giving his estimate Of the vote Of the
state, in which the estimated vote for
Mr. Robinson lid not come up to the
democratic idea The Democrat sees
in this publication evidence Of collu-
sion with the republican party. For
the comfort Of our contemporary we
will simply remark that THE ADVOCATE
is neither a democratic or republican
paper. II is not intended to build up
the interests Of either, and it has not
been in the habit OF consulting any
body as to the character Of the matter
that should appear in it's columns.
We wish to assure the Democrat that
this Will continue to be it's policy, and
the sooner this fact is recognized by
all parties the less disappointment will
be likely to be experienced in the
future.
We published the correspondence
referred 10 for what it was worth,
without editorial comment, and it is
we'll known to all who know anything
about the matter land among this
number may be included the editor Of
the Democrat), that we did not en-
dorse the figures. The estimates gwen
by our correspondent did not corre-
spond with the figures compiled in
this office, and we gave them no en-
dorsement This is the first time we
ever heard the right to estimate the
result of an election called in ques-
tion. The Democrat has always
claimed Mr.. Robinson's election and
we have never objected. The Demo-
G0t will feel better after this bad
spell works off.

FREE SUGAR.

Great stress has been laid on tho
provision Of the Mckinley tariff bill
admitting sugar of certain grades
free Of duty. The following para
graph from the revised tariff schedule
shows the grades that are admitted
free:
Sugars all not above No. 10 Dutch standard in
color, all tank bottoms sugar DRAWINGS, and
sugar sweeplngs, syrups Of cane Juice, malada,
concentrated malada, and concrete and cOncen-
trated moIasses and molasses' are admitted
iree
The Chicago Inter ocean, one OF
the leading protection journals Of the
country, in speaking Of this grade of
sugar, says:
No. 10 Dutch standard lisa grade OF sugar not
ordinarily used In trade. II isa raw, very dark,
dirty sugar, and only when subjected TO refining
processes Is available for ordinary commercial
use When refined II is about equal to the grade
known as Windsor O, Of medium brown color,
1t Is used In lts raw state In the manufacture Of
low grade Of iellies and connections, Thewhole-
sale houses Of this city do not keep II In stock,
In response to inquiries from customers several
OF the larger firms hUve procured samples from
eastern importers and are sending small pack
ages when desired,
IL will be observed that the grades
of sugar placed upon the free list are
grades not used by American con-
sumers. Not a pound Of them can
be found in any market in the coun-
try. Who gets the benefit Of this free
sugar. Nobody but the re6ner,
While the refner is protected in all
the higher grades Of refined sugar
such as are found in all our retail
markets, he is enabled to import the
crude article from which his refined
product is made, free Of duty. This
is the way the farmer and laboring
man are protected by our benefcent

Within the memory Of the Oldest
inhabitant OF the state there has been
no state election in any sense to com
pare with that Of November 4, 1890
The hitherto dominant political or
ganizatlon of the state, from the be-
ginning to the end Of their beastly
brutal and most vicious canvass, was
conducted on methods that would
even put TO the blush the bushwhack-
or and guerilla. The ruling passion
to abuse, denounce and falsify, on the
part of "the grand old republican
party" proved strong, even in the
hour Of it's death. Tie poor old Cap
HQI which, on the morning after the
defeat Of Governor st. John, in 1882,
had for It's first editorial, "Good morn
ing, Governor st. john" eight years
later, in the hour of the most humil-
iating defeat Of Governor Lyman U.
Humphrey, seeks to console him and
the party, by saying:
The IFS are all right. Humphrey Horton, IIo-
yey, Higgins and HallOwel "made the rlnle."
ATTORNEY GENERAL KELLOGG stands the
brunt Of ths fight but no has chance OF beat
ing the combined forces OF the enemy.
Kansas Is still republican. 10 will be n long
day before such another aggregation is made
up again TO oppose the grand old party.
As a matter Of verifcation of the
statement Of the Capital "KANsAs IS
STILL REPUBLICAN," itmight be said Of
Anderson county, which put Hum
phrey 832 in the lead in 1888 the
Capital now states that the republic
ans have not elected "most Of the
county officers, including representa-
tive"
Bourbon county, where Humphrey
was l,693 ahead in 1883, has now
elected b. f. Fortney and John II.
Rice, the peoples candidates for
representatives, and the Capital adj
mits that the peoples" ticket has
probably carried the county.
Cloud county, where Humphrey
was /, ,449 votes ahead in the 1883 race,
is now, as the Capital has it:
The republican state ticket is In doubt as is
Phillips the republican candidate for Congress,
The outlook Is bad for the republican county
ticket,
Dickinson county, which in 1883
put Humphrey 95S votes ahead, is
thus mentioned by the Capital:
The Alliance vote is large. The indications are
that It will have at least one representative,
Coffey county, where Humphrey
was 707 votes in the lead in 1885
the home of Congressman Kelly the
Capital says:
Indications are that this county has voted
against the republicans on congressman and
county officers
Kingman county, where Humphrey
was 632 votes in the lead in 1888; the
Capital thus refers to it at this time;
"John Day, peoples candidate for
representative, is elected"
Labette county, where Humphrey
was 1,540 votes ahead of John Martin
in 1883, is thus referred TO by the
| Capital
The indications are that the republicans have
