Brazil, Ind, Dec. l2.-Following on
the White Cap notices posted throughout
the Indian coal region on Thursday,
dynamite bomb was exploded in the

was shut down and operations cannot be
resumed for at least week
The mine in which the outrage occur
red was one of the few making an attempt
to run in the Indiana coal belt. Had
the bomb been exploded five minutes
sooner the mine watchman would have
been blown into eternity.
The watchman had just inspected the
air fans in the cylinder and laid his Ian
tern close to the shaft while he went a
few rods away for the key to the too.-
house. The explosion felled him to the
earth and sent his lantern and a goat
which was grazing near by, in frag
ments skyward.

The McDole family, consisting OF the
mother aged 81, daughter 60, and
son of 90. all lived in house isolated
from Elizabethtown, o. They were
miserlv and unsociable. The mother
and daughter slept in room across the

he found a terrible situation. During
the night the daughter had been seized
with death and had thrown her arms
around her aged and feeble mother IN a
desperate embrace. She had pinloned
the old lady's arms to her side and
pulled her hand down under the covers;
The embrace was so strong that the aged
victim could not free herself, and In her
fright and weakness she tainted. The
daughter died and her clasp frightened
about her mother and held her Ike a
+ wise. The son could do nothing and II
reouired the combined efforts OF two
strong men to unclasp the dead woman
arms and release the mother, who was
so nearly choked To death that 1t Is moi

BEFORE there is any talk of war with
Chill, says the Pittsbuag Post, all the re.
sources of arbitration so warmly COM
mended by Mr.. Blaine's Pan-American
Congress should be exhausted. There
would be no honor or glory in going to
war with that country, which has pop
ulation about half that of the state of
Pennsylvania.
The trouble about our relations with
Chill is that our own people to very
great extent are not satisfied of the Wis
dom or justice of the administration
policy. If Balmaceda, the tyrannical
and bloody usurper, had triumphed,
then everything would have been all
right The United States would most
, likely have come in for a choice cut.
But the Congressional party triumphed,
and with it the cause of orderly and con-
| stitutional government. AS the intlu-
ence of the American administration
was thrown for Balmaceda, what more
natural than that the constitutionalists
should manifest their anger. This has
been invited by the retention of Pat
Egan as minister to avoid the confes-
sion of an awful blunder in his appoint
ment. The affair with the Baltimore
sailors, in which the facts and law are
disputed, is proper subject for arbitra-
ton.
There is danger the administration is
intent upon stirring up war feeling to
cloud over its blunders. But the
Chilian manifesto sent to its foreign
!, ministers puts a different complexion or
the questions in dispute, and calls fol
; further investigation on our side. Wher

the New York Herald, informs us that
the Democratic leaders have decided to
attempt at present no tariff revision, but
will try to achive a few substantial results
in the obliteration of duties on raw ma
terials through seperate bills. This will
leave the party in position to attack the
Mckinley bill next fall if it chooses and
will prevent it from having bill of It's
own in attacking which the Republicans
would put it upon the defensive. In the
meantime business will not be disturbed
