CoL0RADo's SILVER OUTPUT.
It Will Exceed Last Years Total by Ten
Million Dollars.
Trinidad Advertiser.1

IF1nlQaQ AQVerIlSeT.l
Reports from all Of the mining districts
are rite with new and richer strikes in silver
than were ever before known in the history
of the State, and it is estimated that the
silver output for 1891 will amount to $4,000
600, or an excess of $1,000 900 over the pre-
vious year. Prospecting has been carried
on more vigorously than before, and the
greater depth obtained in older mines has
brought to light immense deposits of valu-
able ore.
The mining districts are enjoying an un-
exampled season ofprosperity, which would
be largely increased if the miners were not
deliberately robbed by act of Congress of a
large portion of their legitimate earnings.
The fact that Colorado produces such q
large amount of silver does not make the
latter any the less a precious metal and the
Centennial State is unit, without regard to
politics or political affiliation, for the free
coinage of silver.

Slaughter of Negroes in Alabama.

BIRMINGHAM. Ala, jim. 3l.-An
unprovoked slaughter OF negroes by II
mob, occurred Saturday night ut Carbon
Hin coal mines. 4 mob OF armed white
men surrounded cabin where nine nc
groes were sleeping, and without warning
opened fire through the doors and win
dows. The negroes sprang up In wild
alarm nj tho first vollcy. but In u few
moments all OF them were lying on the
floor dead or wounded. Four wcrc killed
outright and tho other i've wounded
three Of them, 1t is thought, fatally.
Assoon Ms their bloody work was done

The nine negroes had taken the places Of

Hin mincs during the recon. strike, and
when the strike was settled the company
would not discharge them. Tho affair
created intense excitmcnt at the mines
and more trouble Is expected.

Tho Air ship Flies.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Jan. 30.-Tho mir
ship Is success, so, ut least, u large audi
ence that witnessed test this afternoon
ut the Chicago exposition were decidedly
inclined to declare. 10 NIL appearances
1t was thoroughly demonstrated that II
forms fcats OF aerial navigation never
before mplished-propeliing and
steering.
The ship Is the one invented by William
Pennington, Of Mt. Carmel, Illinois. AS
yet only thlrty-foot MODEL has been con-
structcd, and the practicability of using
aluminium, which is to be the material of
which the ship itself will be built, has still
to be shown.
Promptly Mt the appointed time Mr..
Pennington threw open tho doors OF his
work room, and helped by two colleagues,
appeared with the air ship in tow. The
new style conveyance has tho appearance
OF a thirty.foot long cigar made Of shining
foil, and with wings like awnings extend
ing all along the sides At tho forward
end is paddle wheel fastened in the cen
ter to round piece of brass. There is
short rudder ut tho stern.
The craft was drawn 10 the middle Or
the hall, where three small storage bat
teries OF electricity were huddlcd together.
An electrician attached wire from the
batteries TO the piece of brass in the bow
OF the ship. MIR. Pennington stepped for
nal te.t tah
stood gu, rigidly behind. With buzzing
sound like swarm Of bees the ship arose
slowly into the air and moved around in n
circle probably fifty feet in diameter. AT
no time during this first trial WIS the ship
more than ten feet from the ground. The
vehicle was connected with the earth by
light string held by two men, who, how
ever, let the line run out slack. When
the first course had been pursued to the
satisfaction Of every one, the current WAS
turned off and the ship was gradually
brought back TO the floor. Then another
arrangement Of the rudder was made and
the model assembled In the air, taking an
upward spiral course this time.
"rho hoodoo seems TO have Disappeared
exclaimed Inventor Pennington us the
vessel clrcled about his head. He was
right, too. There, twenty one feet above
the floor Of tho exposition building, the
ship moved about and no one was SO
grudging us to deny that in the working
Of tho tiny vessel experimental science
had been given big lift-had made a
great stride. Tho car for passengers was
not attached. After the twenty minutes
trip the vessel was hauled down and
stored away.
Commencing tomorrow the car will be
attached, giving more symmetry, while
adding about forty-fvc pounds to its
weight
Inventor Pennington says 1t will not
travel very fast because OF the danger OF
striking the balcony or projections OF the
building. In test made by the invcnto,
earlier in the day he says he go, fair speed
out OF It, making the propeller blades re-
volve about go times minute, forcing the
ship through the air much faster than q
man could walk. Applying this power In
proper proportion TO a bigger vessel, AND
there would appear 10 be every chance and
probability In favor OF navigating the aii

A REVOLT IN PORTUGAL.
A Few Troops Assay to Found a
Republic.

Three regiments OF infantry, COM
prsing portion OF tho garrison, openly
rovolted to-day. Tho remainder OF the
garrison, including tho municipal guards
remain loyal to the government.
Shortly after tho beginning Of the revolt
tho insurgent troops ind portion OF the
fiscal guards, led by two non-commis-
stoned officers, seized the Hotel do Vile
town hall) in Dom Pedro's square, and
proposed TO then and there declare re-
public. However, u strong body OF loyal
troops, composed Of artillery aud fusiliers,
promptly surrounded and laid siege TO the
Hotel do Vile. When that building was
well surrounded the artillery opened fire
on 1t and soon caused the bricks TO fly
about the heads of the insurgents who
defended the building.
Vhe bombardment OF the Hotel dc Vile
by the troops was followed by n combined,
well-laid and carefully directed infantry
attack upon the insurgents fortress. The
soldiers behaved grandly, keeping ~
rattling fire, and advancing ut the same
time. Tho result was that after feeble
resistance, the insurgents surrendered
Internationally.
Tho loss on both sides, as far as known,
was slight. The insurgents will be tried
by court martial, and in all probability
the ringlcaders will be shot
The insurgents TO the number OF 400 as
sembled ut 4 o'clock in the morning, and
with much cheering paraded through the
principal streets. They made m attempt
to seize tho preside Of police and the con-
trail telegraph office. Their plans were,
however, frustrated by tho municipal
guards, who repealed the attacks Of tho
insurgents.
Meanwhile the civil governor trans
fcrrcd his authority to the general in
command, who summoned loyal troops
when few civilians supporting the in
surgcnts began to dispense. Tho latter
then proceeded TO the Hotel dc Vile, for
tifying the structure to the best OF their
ability, but, lacking ammunition, they
speedily submitted in response to IN artil-
lcry bombardmcnt.
The number of killed and wounded on
both sides, including civilians, is various
ly estimated At from twenty TO fifty. Some
OF tho rebels escaped, but surrendered
later.
