Still Dragging Along.

PIERRE, s. D., Feb. I'm the United
States senatorship contest there was but
one ballot to-day. the 9th. The result
was: Moody q, Tripp 26, Campbell Al,
Melville %, Mellete &, Clark =. The bal
ance were scattering. The number neces-
sary for choice is 81. Tne falling off in
the Melville vote apparently indicates that
support and that he will be dropped. It
would also seem that Moody cannot recov-
er his lost strength. Mellette is generally
considered the strongest republican, but so
far, it is said, he has been holding back. A
rum0r was in circulation tonight that q
deadlock will be broken Tuesday.

Another Immense Pump Will Probably
be Put In Operation.
HAzELToN, Pa, Feb. 6.-Every effort is
being put forth to raise the water from the
fateful mine by means of pumping ma
chinery. To the two Duplex pumps and
one Cameron now in position was added
another Cameron to-day. Ii no greater
progress is made towards emptying the
mine than has been made during the past
48 hours it is probable that the immense
plunger pump with capacity of several
Thousand gallons per minute will be
placed in position. Among some of the
miners at the village there is hope that
death has not swallowed up all the impris-
oned men. These hopeful ones urge that
there are portions of the breasts In the

Of the men may have sought refuge, and
where ventilation is sufficient to sustain

ALL Indiana is threatened with
business paralysis if the strike
among the coal miners continues.
Factories are shutting down daily,
and it is only a question of few
days when the others must follow.
What a splendid advantage to popu-
lar interests for half-dozen men to
own all the coal that nature has de-
posted for the benefit of the human
race. How logical it is to tuln III
and damn the poor half-starved
wretches because they ask for a
share of the profits from their labor.
Coal operators charging $l.76 to
$500 per ton for their product, and
paying 35 to 40 cents for the labor
that brings it to the surface. We
expect q full statement of the case

The Coming Climax.

4 most remarkable political bro
chure, alfd one which promises to
create decided sensation, is now
in press for early issue by Charles
Ii. Kerr & Co., of Chicago. The
author, Lester G. Hubbard, is editor
of the Farmers Voice, and stands
in the very front rank of the leaders
Of the Peoples party, having been
recentlp chosen chairman Of the
central executive committee for Hi
nois. The significance of the forth
coming pamphlet, which will be
entitled "The Coming Climax" lies
in the fact that it gives frank and
fearless summing up of the elements
of danger in the present political
and social conflict between pluto
Gratis and workers. 1t is addressed
to the people Of cities, and embodies
forciblc, direct and definite state
ment of the claims of the new
party on city people. This bro
chure will be the first step in the
organization of the Peoples party
in Chicago and other leading cities,
and it will doubtless be eagerly
sought for. 1t will appear as the
seventh number of Unity Library,
and will retail at fifty cents in paper
and dollar in cloth.

Death of Mrs. James. F. b. Mar.
N shall.

This sad event occurred only two
days after the death of her husband,
and though she was i'll at the time,
no one supposed that death was so
near as proved to be the case. A
correspondent of the Boston Tran
script. referring to the death of the
General and his wife says:
United as they were in their lives
death has not separated them 1t is
rare in human experience that such
history is closed together. With a
mutual tenderness and devotion that is
seldom seen to such degree in mar
ried life, they filled the ideal of that
relation, and gave to it an added sane
tisy in the minds of all who knew the
rare beauty of their united lives. Living
the long years together in happy service
to all about them, with wide sympa-
thies and varied interests, there seemed
TO be in them but one heart and mind
and soul in the work of life. The no.
bility OF the character of one was but q
type of the beauty of the character of
the other, and now leaving the infrmi-
ties OF the years behind them, and know
ing nothing of that separation which is
the common lot of man, they enter upon
the heavenly life together. The fair
earth is blooming as they are laid to
rest, and they are with God in his here
after, "whither their works do follow
them"

The Late DR.. Furry.

The many friends of DIR. J. D.
Furry, while having little hope of
his recovery when he left here sew
eral weeks ago, will be sorry to learn
of his death. He died at Chicago
April 21st. From a letter written
by his father to friend here it is
learned that the doctor made the
voyage to San Francisco with no
serious results. They were delayed
in San Francisco for two days and a
half in the hopes of getting a draw
ing room car, but finally had to take
a sleeper. Soon after starting across
the continent, he began to fail rap
idly. A few hours after the arrival
at Chicago death relieved the doctor
of his snfferipgs. His remains were
taken to Dunnville, Canada, where
the funeral took place Sunday,
April Goth.
DIR. John Delarna Furry was a
native of Canada. He commenced
and continued for several years to
practice his profession at Peoria, Ill.
About a year ago he came to these
Islands on account of his health,
hoping the mildness of the climate
would tend to cure his lung COM
plant. There is no doubt the eli
mate did prolong his life, but the
end was apparent. Shortly after his
fathers arrival they both started for
the east, but his strength failed and
he died as mentioned above.
