To the hills by their fellows. All day the
entire coke regions has presented scenes
of the widest excitement. The foreign
element especially has been driven
frantic by this wOeful result to their an
| ticipated victorious raid on the Frick
works at MorcwOOd. Always turbulent,
sullen. and ready for desperate measures,
they are not one whit cowcd by the
| death of several ot their number. While
they have sedulously concealed in their
homes three of their number who were
wounded. there are many. no doubt. who
| are wounded unto death.
Anathemas loud and deep have been
heard on every side all day. Word has
| been scent by secret means all over the
| region that their comrades were fired
on, and moved da4Sn by the guards with

1t will he noticed that all the men
killed bear foreign names, and it is fact

sentiment expressed in every foreign face

Thousands of strikers and their friends
poured into this place from all over the
region to have a look at the dead and

drum corps, they marched first to the
STANDARD works where they deliberately
destroyed both telephone and telegraph
wires, SO that word of thCircoming could
not bc sent to Morcwood. While at the
Standard works, incidentally they dis
trOycd anything movcable they might
find, the strikers created all the noise
possible from the surrounding hills, in
tending to apprise those of their fellow
strikers in the vicinity of their intention
to raid Their march to the Standard
works had been but a heller -skclter
affair, each man of the five hundred in
line merely making all the noise possible
in order to increase their number for a
more desperate raid on Morewood. where
it was known 81 guards had been placed
with orders to fire if necessary.
Some time aftcr2 o'clock this morning
the guards at MorewoOd heard from
the Standard that raid was imminent.
Now the frightened men left at Stand

repair the wires and the warning reached

REPUBLICAN JUDGES.

An Opinion That President Harrison Will
Not Fe,I Called Upon To Appoint Any
Others.
''There has been great deal of gos-
sip about the new United States judges
to be appointed, said friend of Attor-
ney-General Miller, who is urging the
appointment OF Representative Payson,
''and the most extraordinary claims are
set forth as to the advisability of ap-
pointing one or more democrats. So far
rs know it has always been the custom
In this country for United States judges
to be selected from the party In power.
No president, SO far as know-certainly
not since Monroe-has appointed judges
from the opposition; and in spite OF all
that one hears these days OF the adyisa-
bility OF making non-politcal ap-
pointments are really from the
nature and Importance OF the
duties perform ed just as political as any
that can be made. do not mean by this
that persons should be appointed who
have SO little character that they can be
relied upon to decide the Semi-politicai
questions that come before the courts In
this or that way. Far from II; such ap-
pointments would be disgraceful and l
do not believe any such will be made by
President Harrison. What / mean is
that persons ought to be, and l believe
will be, appointed who have the rcpub-
Iican idea, as contrasted with the demo-
cratic idea, touching the powers and
functions of the several branches of the
United States government and state gov
ernments. No, l do not thing Judge
Culbertson or any other democrat will be
appointed Judge by President Harrison,
certainly not with the concurrence OF
Attorney-General Miller"

Statistics are not always dull, re.
marks the London Pail Mall Gazette
very justly. and then as the reason OF
this assertion it quotes the following
entertaining and curious statistics re-
Gently collected by an industrious
Partisan:
According to this Frenchman the av.
erage Partisan consumes during his
lifetime 1,S0Opounds of bread and / ZOO
pounds of meat, and these he washes
down with 81 barrels of wine, 400 liters
Of alcohol Cd, about 100 liters of beer,
and on equal quantity of cider. He
also absorbs IL, 100 eggs, 1,6OO pounds
OF fish, 1,80O pounds of oil CD, 1,S0O
pounds Of salt, and 10000 pounds Of
vegetables.
Seeing that the civilization OF na-
tion is measured by its consumption OF
salt and soap, the l, 800 pounds Of salt
speaks we'll for the Parisian, but what
about abe oil and the alcohol?
The next item in the statistician's 3
account would furnish vegetarian
with text for sermon. It states
that every inhabitant Of the French
capital, on an average, n the grave, in
the course of his lifetime, Of 3 kids,
quails, 8 thrushes, 6 hares, 8 turkeys,
IL partridges, 18 geese. ~ ducks, 81
swallows, 78 pigeons, 03 rabbits, and
21O pullets.
1t is pity the number Of frogs and
snails has not been added 10 this menu.

ANOTHER ASYLUM BURNS.
six Insane Patients Burned to Death In
the Nashville Hospital.

Six Insane Patients Burned to Death in
the Nashville Hospital.
NASHVILLE, March 14.-Fire broke
ont at the Central insane asylum, seven
miles from the city, on the Murfreesboro
pike, at IL o'clock last night. 1t started
In the rear OF the male wing, which was
destroyed and the flames continued to
rage. There were twenty-eight patients
In the wing and six OF them burned to
death. Before the main building caught
fire the inmates had been collected aud
organized into condition for moving.
The Details.
This morning the asylum Is ruin un-
der which lie the charrcd bodies OF half
dozen inmates, while In the outhouses
are huddled those who escaped from the
fire. The inmates who lost their lives
were in the west wing. Their names
are: j. S. Johns, j. Burt Dexten, Blue
Preston, John B. Kelly, w. II. Beastry
and b. L. Hollowell. A woman inmate,
whose name Is unknown, was drowned
in small lake on the grounds.
Soon after the fire was discovered
last night the alarm was given and the
400 inmates OF the institution were
thrown into commotion; all were rescued
but the siy men who perished. The city
was tclephoned for aid but tho chief OF
the fire department could not be found
and his subordinates refused to move
without orders. Finally, after two
hours delay, the chief was found and he,
with two engines, left for the scene Of
disaster. In the meantime the west
wing had collapsed and the inmates,
made frantic by their danger, began
to break from the guard and scatter over
the surrounding country. The fire
engines arrived on the scene at 1l:15 and
In few minutes were playing streams
on the main building. Previously y
OF inmates, serva Is and guards
by means OF buckets, succeeded in hold
ing the fire in check until the greater
part Of the unfortunates were rescued.
At $3.50 this morning the fire was got
under control and tho inmates were all
housed. 1t is impossible to
give any accurate estimate OF the loss,
though 1t will be heavy. The building
was fully insured.

A worm that feeds on common steal
was first brought into general notice by
an article in the Cologne Gazette in
1888.
For some time preceding the publ
cation OF the account mentioned, the
greatest CONSERVATION existed smour
the engineers employed on the railway
at Hagen by accidents, which alwayr
occurred at the same place, indicating
that some terrible defect must exist
either in the material or the construc.
tion of the rails.
The Government became interested
aud sent commission to the spot for
the purpose of maintaining q constant
watch at the spot where the accidents
One of them attended by loss OF
ife-had occurred. It was not, how.
ever, until after six months had elapsed
that the surface of the rails appeared
to be corroded. as if by acid, to the ex.
tent of over hundred yards.
The rail was taken up and broken.
whereupon it was found to be literally
honey -combed by thin thread-like gray
worms. This worm is said to be two
centimeters in length and about the size
of a common knitting needle. It is
of light gray color, and on the head
it carries two little sacs or glands filed
with most powerful corrosive secre.
tion, which is elected every ten minutes
when the little demon is lying undis.
turbed. The liquid when squirted up.
on iron renders that metal soft and
spongy, and the color of rust, when it
is easily and greedily devoured by the
little insect. "There is no exaggera-
tion," says the official report, "in the
assertion that the creature is one of the
most voracious, for it has devoured
thirty-six kilogrammes of rails in
fortnight"
