The Moon In Darkness.

September's moon was the harvest
moon and October's the hunters
and each was interesting in its way,
but November's moon will beat them
both in point of curious phenomena.
lmprimis, in November moon came
in promptly with the first day of the
month, and this early appearance
admits of another new moon on the
last day of the month, thus giving
us the somewhat unusual number of
five phases for the calendar month.

ley, near this place, met with an ac-
cident to-day that came near being
fatal, and which should be a warn
ing to all who handle firearms
Young Stanley was out hunting
and attempted to load his gun while
standing on fence. 1t is shot gun
and the tube was burned out SO bad
ly that it was necessary to put on the
cap before putting in the powder, in
order to keep it from running out.
He had done this and was putting in
the remainder of the load when the
breech Of the gun slipped and the
hammer struck on rail and dis
charged the weapon and Stanley re-
ceived the load of shot in his fore
head, just over the left eyebrow. For
tnnately the gun was so nearly per-
pendicuar that the shot ranged up
ward and did not penetrate the skull
However his forehead is almost a
jelly and in a bad condition, though
not fatal. Dr. Talbot attended the
case and picked out some shot and
did what was necessary for the com
fort and good of the sufferer.
There was so much loss of blood
that the boy was unable to walk home.

We understand that Prof. T. E.
Hodges is candidate for the nomi-
nation for the office of Superintend-
ent of Free Schools. The Professor
has as yet made no formal announce
ment of his candidacy, but we be-
lieve is fact. Professor Hodges
would be strong candidate if nom
mated. Besides being one of our
most popular citizens, he is by rea-
SON of the magnificent record made
by him in educational affairs very
well known and equally popular
throughout the entire State. Among
the principals of our Normal schools
he ranks second to none, and his de-
yotion to the cause of education
makes him the most suitable candi-
date we have yet heard mentioned
for the Office for which he aspires.
We think we voice the opinion of
our entire community when we ex-
press the hope that the professor
will "get there" -Huntington Id

The Women will Lose.

The efforts of the Methodist WON
en- to gain representation in the Gen
eral Conference of the M. Z. Church
it is believed, will be decided against
them at the biennial meeting in
Omaha next May. The question
has attracted the attention Of the re-
ligious world for over two years, and
since the last session of the General
Conference has been the most import
ant issue in the M. E. Church The
attempt at that time to give women
the right to be delegates was a new
departure among the Christian
churches, and was thought by many
to be the beginning of new era for
women, in which the privilege of
suffrage would become their right.
The question was left to the district
conference for them to express an
opinion, and it was generally believ-
ed that the women would win. The
heart wretchedness of devout as well
as wicked man was not considered,

Conferences that have voted on the
question, it is evident that a big
majority is opposed to the PROPOSE
ton.
When asked about the probable
results yesterday, B. c. Christy, one
of the leading Methodist laymen in
Western Pennsylvania, said that the
women would be shut out two to
one. Out in the Wild West where
women are as scarce as policemen
at fight, Mr.. Christy said the con-
ferences were almost unanimous in
their vote to give their sisters voice
in church proceedings, but up in
Puritan New England, the selfish
men want the power they have held
continued and refuse to give the
gentler six the right to argue with
them. "The Southern States" con
tinued Mr.. Christy, "also oppose
representation for women Pennsyl-
vaina went against them and as it
looks now the vote will be strongly
against change. '-PsXsburg Dis

NONE WERE LEFT
TO TELL THE TALE OF THE HOR-
RIBLE ACCIDENT.
Nineteen Miners Drop Down Shaft
to Death and Lie Mangled Corpses
Before Their Compani0ns.

BUTTE CRY, Mont, Nov. 1.-THE
worst mining accident of the year
took place at the Anaconda mine
this morning when seventeen miners
were killed in the cage coming up.
Midnight, the time to shift the gangs
of men had come, and the cage full
of miners returning from work step
ped out into the open air. Their
places were at once taken by nine
teen men who were to go down.
Hardly had they started when the
rope broke and they fell to the bot
tom. A number of the miners wait
ing to be relieved were at the bottom
of the shaft. Before their eyes were
cast the mangled bodies of their com
panions. OF the nineteen who fell
seventeen were dead. While there
were two yet breathing there was no
hopes of their recovery.

The result of the election in New
York on Tuesday il Of far reaching
importance and demonstrates that
the State is safe for the Democracy
IN the coming Presidential contest.
All that is necessary is the naming
of proper candidate and the battle
will be safe. A few extracts from
the New York papers on the result
will show what is thought of it by
papers independent Of party affilia-
tions.
The Staats-Zeitung thinks the
overwhelming majority is verdict
Of the people in favor Of the position
which the Democracy of New York
has taken in national politics. The
first result will be that this position
will be the only one that can be ia
ken by the natiozal party, where it
was threatened at least in one re-
spect. This is what the tidal wave
that carried Flower into the Cover
nor's Office signifies above all other
considerations. Flower, as far as his
own person is concerned, remains en-
tirely in the background, if the re
suit is considered in this respect, but
the man who in the campaign was
the most prominent exponent of the
principles enupciated in the Sarato-
ga platform stands in the front rank
before all others-Grover Cleveland. +"
The Times says "the result is an
unmistakable verdict against the Re-
publican party under the leadership
of Thomas c. Plat. The. fact that
the heavy losses of the party were in
the Republican counties of the inter-
Tor and upper part of the State makes
it peculiarly significant. 1t shows
that the people we're not to be fooled
by Mr.. Plat and his subservient but
bumptious candidate for Governor"
The World denominates it as "a
momentous victory for Democracy
and good government and claims that
it puts an end to the most despicable
and INSCRIPTIONS bosship known
here since Tweed was sent to prison."
The Advertiser claims that "the
election Of Roswell P. Flower as Gov.
ernor by aplurality of 10000 empha-
sizes in the strongest terms the fact
that New York is still Democratic
State. Mr.. Fassett, a young man of
excellent character, supported by his
party almost free from factional quar-
rels; backed by the administration,
well supplied with funds, is beaten
in fair contest. There is no excuse
even to blame the defeat upon the
weather, for a more beautiful day
was never vouchsafed the State in
the month of November"
While the Tribune says: 1.-THE
elections of Tuesday show that the
Republican party is handsomely re-
gaining its strength, but has not vet
gained quite enough to make sure its
success in the Presidential contest of
next year."

The fact that Marshall, Field Il
Co., the great Chicago dry goods
firm lately paid $4,000 tariff on ST.
400 worth of pearl buttons having
got into the newspapers to the an
noyance of the Republican members
of the firm, their custom house bro
ker was severely reprimanded for
having let the truth leak out. The
culprit thereupon went to Mr.. Field
and penitently promised that it
should not occur again. Much to
his amazement, Mr.. Field, who is a
Democrat, made answer:
"Why shouldn't it occur agar?
Why shouldn't the people be made
acquainted with the truth? You did
perfectly right about it, Mr.. Barn
hart. Let the people know that the
tariff is tax"
Mr.. Field is right. He deserves
the thanks of every shirt-wearer in
the country, and the shopping and
sewing women should especially be
grateful to him for his effort to
spread the light. There could be
no higher testimony to the conscious
dishonesty of the tariff act than the
studious effort made all through it
to conceal its apolitatory character.
The people have the right to know
the whole truth about it: and they
will get the truth, with or without
official assistance. = PHILADELPHIA

'RAH FOR THE TARIFF.


Five hundred laborers employed in
the great iron and steel mills of Jones
Il Laughlin were yesterday told in
an emphatic manner, that the cleo
ton had been held and that Major
Mckinley had carried Ohio. This
is the firm of which B. F. Jones is
head; the millionaire iron master
who was chairman of the Republican
national executive committee in 1884,
who is an early and late advocate of
high protection. At fifteen minutes
before noon yesterday, the labor boss
in the mills posted up notice from
the firm that reduction of wages
had been decided upon, which had
taken effect at 6 o'clock yesterday
morning. 1t was sort of back &C.
tion affair. Heretofore most of the
men had been laboring for ten hours
day. at$1.50. Some had been work
ing for s1.35. The new order is that
all laborers shall work 10 hours a
day at $l.35. When the notice was pos
ted there was much surprise. The
labor boss was besieged by inquirers,
who thought there must be some
mistake. There was none. There is
much grumbling among the work
men, but most of them say that as
they are unorganized they viii have
to grin and bear the reduction.
Some of the workmen talked with
a representative, of the Post The
spokesman for the party said that
they felt that the reduction had been
intended for some time, but that the
firm had simply waited until the cleo
tion was over. Said he: "They tell us
that the Mckinley bill helps us.
do not believe it. There is no pro-
lection in it except for the bosses.

was slightly, if any improved, he re-
turned to his native home that he
might die among his kindred. Sud-
