CONVICT MINERS RELEASED.
The Stockade at Oliver Springs Burned
and the Prisoners Set Free.

The Stockade at Oliver Springs Burned
and the Prisoners Set Free.
KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Nov. AT 10
o'clock last evening 200 mounted men
came in from the mountains and lib
Grated the 200 convicts working in the
mines at Oliver Springs. So quietly
was it done that the people of the
town knew nothing about what
had happened until 6 o'clock this
morning, when they discovered that
the stockade of the lessees was a mass of
smoking ruins. All of the short-term
prisoners were furnished with citizens
clothing, and with the exception of
few who were recaptured, all are now
at large. This makes more
than 500 penitentiary convicts
turned loose in that locality since Fri
day evening. The governor of the state
was here yesterday, but left this morn
ing for Nashville. 1t was given out
after his arrival here that the
force of guards at Oliver had been
largely increased, and that an attack
upon the stockades would be stoutly re-
sisted. 1t does not appear, however,
that there was any resistance at all, and
no one was hurt.

Italy Has Plenty.

In an interview at Rome Sig. Arcoles,
under secretary of the Italian Agri-
cultural Department, said that the crops
in that country were all above the aver
age yield. In exact figures the yield
of wheat is 15,45U.000 quarters;
of maize, S,06S, 900; of oats, 2,061,-
600; of barley, 1901, 900, and of
rye, 2,403, 900. Eighty-fve per cent. of
the wheat crop is of very good quality.
The yield of wine is expected to be
large in quantity and fine in quality,
and the orange and lemon crops are
most promising. Taken altogether,

Cold Mining in Kansas CITY.

The Kansas City MO- officials were
wrought up to high pitch of excite
ment on the LIST by the discovery Of
gold in the samples of the strata pierced
by the drilling for the water-works tun-
mel under the Missouri River. Carl
Weintrock, formerly connected with
the Kansas City Humboldt Mining Com
pany, which controls mining properties
in Colorado, now chief draughts-
man under City Engineer Butts, has
been clarifying the various samples of
the strata sent in by Thomas Wright, the
contracting drill man. Being practical
mining engineer, Weintenrock' atten-
ton was attracted by shining particles
in the bottles containing the samples,
and on examination, under a powerful
glass, he became convinced that two
specimens of the strata contain free gold
in sufficient quantities to make the min
ing of it profitable.

Sandringham Hall Badly Damaged by
Sunday Fire.

LONDON, Nov. 2.-Fira which broke
out yesterday morning at Sandringham
Hall, the residence of the Prince of
Wales, situated on the Great Eastern
Railroad not far from London, caused a
large amount of damage in spite of the
efforts of the local fire brigade and
the assistance rendered by the rail-
road people. Sandringham Hall must
now be re-painted and re-decorated
from roof to cellars, and the upper por
ton of the building, where the fire
broke out, must be rebuilt. Conse-
quently it will be impossible for the
Prince of Wales and his family to occu-
py the hall this winter. The Prince
was expected to arrive and take up

Latest news from the sections visited
by the earthquake, in Japan, show that
the results were terrible in the ex-

loss of life at $4,000. The towns OF Ma
goya, Gifu and Oiaka were completely

broke out and completed the
work of destruction. The various
wagon roads are blockaded by immense
heaps of debris, and railroad traffic is
entirely suspended. At Gifu 5000
houses were destroyed and 5000 per
sons were killed. Eighteen thousand
houses were wrecked and 1000 persons
lost their lives at Orgeyea. Fifty miles
of railway has been destroyed in the

appointment of a receiver to wind up

Dancing lessons draw $36S, 900 from
the purses Of Philadelphia disciples of
Terpsichore every season. This seems
at a first glance like an enormous sum.
but when one considers that %, young
men, women and children are learning
to dance in the fOrty-siX dancing acade
mics every season, at an estimated cost
of $40 each for two quarters. it does not
seem so remarkable after all. And what
a heterogeneous mixture of dancers these
forty-siX institutions turn out! Nova
days everybody must know. how to
dance, after fashion, whether they do
very much dancing or not.
The Kensington mill girl takes much
pride in being the "best pivoter," and in
going round and round clasped in the
arms of her "steddy comply" until
both get dizzy and stop perforce. The
SwampoOdle girl, who 'gOeS out by the
day." must learn to dance as we'll as her
more favored sister of the 400. And the
masses who come in between these two
extremes are equally bent on mastering
the many Intricacies of the dance.
In the Swim and Out
The schools themselves differ as wide
ly as the pupils who attend them. The
swell institution 10 which Mrs. Inthe-
swim sends her embryo social leaders is
far removed from the place where Miss

piano and a squeaky violin. And their
methods are as different as their patrons.

words of the elevator boy, who has his

tons, "formality, thy name is Dennis"
The knight simply picks out his lady,
and often without word, his arm en-
circles her waist, she leans her head on
his shoulder, and off they go, until her
hair gets into his eyes, and a collision
occurs.
But where the pivot is popular there
is no collision, no excitement, and all is
as serene as June day. The returning
boat from Gloucester is favOrite field
for pivOting. There is no reversing,
and the best pivOters are those who Oc-
cupy the least space and who scarcely
move from the spot. The girl closes her
eyes In a state of ecStatic bliss, and no
muscle of her "feiler's" face even
moves.
There is no talking in the pivot, and
the only indication that the piYOterS
are alive is in the fact that they move.

There are other fields, however, which
present pleaSanter pictures. Laughing
children, graceful as the fawn, and
happier than any lark that ever scared
skyward. Little tots scarcely able to
tOddle about, yet full of grace and
beauty. Boys who are not hObble-
dehoys and girls who are not hoy

schools a speciality is made of pre-
pairing children for the stage. The
