The TfaDs-Mississippi Congress sdyo-
Gated the free coinage Of silver. This
was natural. The Congress was eon-
yened IN Denver, the capital Of the great
silver producing state Of Colorado. The
wealthy mine owners Of that state desire
the United States Government TO furnish
them an unlimited market for their pro
duct. Controlling. az they did, the Con.
gress, they were able to voice their
desires through It's official ntSeranees.
But why should the United States gov
eYament make these wealthy silver
Kings its special protogees: IL Ii
because they are able 10 hire large
lobby and maintain an enormous ''llter-

been the real basis Of their influence and
power. Has no. the farmer az much right
10 demand that the government shalt fur
nish him an Unlimited market for his
wheat and potatoes, as the mine owner has
to demand that lt shall purchase all his
silver. IL seems 80 To Us. We do not
think, however. that the people Of this
country are set prepared TO convert
their national government Into big
merchandise emporium. The fathers
established the government for vastly
different purposes, and the impoftuhate
cries Of money seekers should not be
permitted TO change them in the slight

DULUTH, MIMI, July 17.-Last

killed by the falling of the new hotel
there. About twenty-five men had
gathered in the building to seek refuge
from the rain when it collapsed level

one of whom will die today, and half
dozen more are badly injured.

DESTRUCTIVE STORM IN MINNESOTA.
ST. CLOUD, Mimi, July 17.-Reports
received today from different towns in
Stears, Sherburn and Benton counties
indicate that much more damage was
ione to crops generally by the hail
storm yesterday than was supposed.
In the towns of st. Cloud and
Augusta the width of hail
storm ranged from three to five
! miles and it is estimated that nearly
2, 500 acres or at least $4,000 bushels of
wheat have been destroyed. Many
farmers in this belt have met with a
similar loss within the past few years
and are left almost destitute. The
torn was the heaviest ever known
here. Hail almost as large as hens
eggs are reported to have fallen in
some localities.

STILLS AND A STILL HUNT.
INTO THE CLUTCHES OF
UNCLE SAM

ST. LOUIS July 17.-United States
revenue officers, sent direct from
Washington, have been on still hunt
here for some time. AS result they
have made extensive seizures of
whisky belonging to the Nelson Dis
tilling company, Teuscher & Co., A.
Scharff, John Borderheir and several
other well known liquor houses and
before tomorrow night, when the raid
will cease, a dozen or more firms will
have become involved.
The grounds upon which the seiz-
ures are being made as reported from
the office of revenue collectors are the
changing and defacing of government
brands and marks upon barrels OF
whisky sold to retailers, and a dis
crepancy in the proof of whisky after
the proof had been stamped and certi
fed to ny the government. The
liquor dealers state the seizures have
been made on purely technical grounds
and that no fra Id or attempted fraud
can be shown. The matter will be
carried to the courts in November.

GALVESTON GETS HER BACK
UP IN GREAT SHAPE.
NO OONVIOTs NEED APPLY.
They will Not be Permitted to Work on
Her Harbor lmprovement-Red-
hot Resolutions and
Covert Threats.

GALVESTON, Tex, July 1.-THE
contemplated employment of con-
victs upon the harbor improvement
here by O'Connor, Lang & SInoot,
who were awarded the contract, has
produced considerable excitement and
indignation. Tonight large and en-
thusiastic meeting of workingmen and
citizens met at the Knights of Labor
hall to emphatically protest and take
steps against the employment of con
victs. Alderman Bolton acted as
chairman and City Auditor Herman
as secretary of the meeting. Resolu-
tons strongly condemning the EN-
ployment of the state convicts
were adopted. The employment
of such labor outside of
prison walls was characterized
as shame and disgrace to the city,
the state and the people; an insult to
honest labor, and as contrary. to the
spirit of Americanism. The attention
of the governor, the penitentiary COM
missioners, representatives in congress,
the president and secretary of war was
called to the MATTER and copies of the
resolutions were ordered sent to the
persons named. Col. George P. Fin
lay addressed the meeting and vigor
ously denounced the action of the
contractors, and asserted that never
before had convicts been employed OF
United States government works.
A committee was appointed to draft
additional resolutions and present
them to the governor and the penlten-
tiary commissioners, requesting that
the convicts be not leased to OConnor,
Lang g. Smoot for work upon the con-
tract. The chamber of commerce was
requested to call public meeting and
also take action in the matter. 1t was
very strongly intimated in the meet
ing tonight that if this protest against
the employment of convict labor on
the harbor improvement was not
needed here their employment would
be resisted by force.

WEST SUPERIOR, Wis, July lG,-ln
an instant this afternoon by the giant
play of cyclone half a hundred hui

A number of buildings were ravaged

Wanamaker is very much troubled at

GEORGETOWN CHAUTAUQUA.
SAM JONES' LECTURES AND SERMONS
ATTRACTING LARGE CROWDS.

GEORGETOWN, Tex, July 17.-Sam
Jones lectured Wednesday night about
MAN and Money" He says all the
evils in the world are based on ava
rice. He'll, he says, is seltishness on
fire, and he is constantly surprised
that some men he knows do not catch
fire by spontaneous combustion and
90 up in a sheet of flame. He thinks
preachers need broadening, need to
assert their manhood more. Ninety
nine per cent should be man, and one
per cent preacher; but instead OF this
he says the pulpits are mostly filled by
specimens made up of ninety-nine per
cent preacher and one per cent man.
Mr.. Jones says he doesn't preach much
about heaven, what kind of place 1t
is, because some Of his converts will
see for themselves by and by; but the
majority would never know whether
he had described it correctly or not.
ANYWAY, he knows heaven is not made
no of a lot of dead beats who never
did anything in this world to make
folks feel glad when they left
it; but the other world
will be the everlasting abode
of the heroes and heroines of this
world.
Mr.. Jones lectured again this morn
ing. Immense crowds flock to hear
him, and every tongue is busy with
comments pro and con. Everybody
goes to hear him again and again.
About ore thousand dollars worth
of chautauqua lots were sold yester-
day, two OF which were sold to Hon.
Taylor Moore and Prof. Walden, citi-
zens of Austin.
"Get There" was the subject Of
Sam Jones lecture last night. A violent
wind blew up about o'clock, fol
lowed by threatening clouds and rain,
but q large audience was on hand to
hear the eminent Georgian at D. m.
he lecturcd today about prayer, and
the general efficiency of that com
modify as dealt in by the average
christian. Unless man has some
works, he needn't pray-God will not
near MIN. a HAN WOrCn, he says,
may be estimated by what he does
for God and humanity.
Mr.. Jones says he had rather be
liberal gambler than a stingy Metho,
dist, for you can convert the gambler
and he'll make good man, but there's
no redemption for stingy Methodist
The medal offered by Col. Copeland
for best elocutionist was awarded to
Miss Liiu Lane after contest at 4. p
