FOUR HUNDRED KILLED.
Terrible Result of the Explosion in the
bohemian silver Mine.

PRAGUE, June 3.-Owing to the great
excitement that prevailed when it was
known that tie nIc thai DIuhu GAY
Tuesday night in the Birkenburg silver
mine, near Przibram, had caused the
death of a number of the
miners, many contradictory state
ments were made rs to the
number of those who had persisted.
One of the first reports had 1t that
forty had been killed. Now, however,
that the excitement had died out to q
great extent and inquiries have
been made among the survivors, ii is
estimated that fully 400 of the employees
lost their lives in the disaster. Among
those who were killed were five stu
dents from the mining academy who
were studying the working of the mine
to gain practical knowledge of mining
operations.

THE importation Of arms into Louisi-
ana to aid a political faction is significant
of the intensity of public feeling in that
State concerning the lottery. 1t is simply
amazing that in the full light of the in
telligence Of this age a State campaign
can be carried on, with the single ques-
ton Of lottery or no lottery the issue.
It is a tremendous struggle that is going
on in Louisiana, but upon a subject that
is a shame and humiliation to treat at
the ballot-box. 1t will go down in his
tory as one of the blacklist spots upon
independent statehood that free and
enlightened people in the year of
grace 1892 contended at the polls over the
question whether gambling institution
should receive a mortgage of the State
conscience and hold twenty-five years.
lease of the State character. The Phila-
delphia Press says the downfall of the
lottery in Louisiana will be ''a victory for
the morals of the American people and
the American republic" What then will
it signify if the lottery triumphs, as it is
very likely to do, according to present
indications.

THE Epoch propounds question to
the Democratic party that it will find it
difficult to answer in the negative. 1t
asks how, with the East and New Eng
land against free coinage, and with the
majority party in the House for free
coinage, the Democracy can eXtricate
itself from its difficulty except by the
nomination of Mr.. Cleveland. On the
other hand, the Springfield Republican
and New York Times each asks the Re-
publican party how, with his patriotic
and clean administration, his stand for
reciprocity-a considerable step forward
in tariff reform-his dignified bearing in
the office, and his declaration that every
dollar should be equal in value with
every other dollar-how the Republican
party can afford to throw President
Harrison overheard?

Brooklyn, n. Y, who is Q filth curer.
The priest hung about his neck certain
relics, as, bit of the Manager where
Christ was born, some particles of the
from the tomb in Gethsemane, etc. Then
he prayed fervently over Mccarthy and
sent him on his way. Five hours later
Mccarthy tainted, but on recovering
from his stupor he found his control of
the respiratory organs fully restored, and
all evidences of paralysis gone. Hewas
sound man once more and felt like colt.
Doctors were called to examine him and
found him well and without any disorder.
OF course believers in the faith cure will
hold up their palms and praise heaven
that this miracle has been given to men,
and the market price of holy relics will at
once advance. The probability is, as DIR.
Cooper suggests in yesterday dispatches,
that it is what-for want of a better term
lis called hypnotic cure; that McCar-
tdy was AnuuCSo ny lAS l1CeihlollOho VI
the priest to so exercise his will power
that the abnormal action of the respira-
tory muscles yielded to the force of nat
ural laws and conditions; that if through
any other influence the will power of
Mccarthy could have been equally ex-
cited, the result would have been the
same. That there was any miraculous
cure about the case is all humbug that
the 'relics" had any thing to do with it,
is mere superstition; that the praying Of
the priest did avail must be conceded,
because it brought the subject into such
frame that his recovery, his hope of re-
storation. and his belief in the efficacy of
faith and prayer, actually gave his will
power dominance that worked physi-
cal change.

AS single instance of the fact that the
great masses of the people do not know
of all the literary successes of the day,
and that we are so vast in population, so
varied in activity and so wonderfully
busy as world community, it is worthy
of note that Silas K. Hooking is the
author of twenty books, and that their
sale has exceeded 100000 copies. Yet
not one reader in twenty has ever heard
of Silas K. Hooking, and not one in ten
in all the world can name one of the
volumes of this prolific English writer.

RODGERS A WINNER.
Opinion of the Organ of the Federated
Trades.

sacramento Tradesman February 15th.l
Thesstrength developed by the indie
pendent candidates, William Tibbitts for
Second Trustee and John b. Rodgers for
Chief of Police, is phenomenal. The lat
ter is conceded to be the strongest man in
the race to-day, while the former is con-
stantly adding to his strength. Both are
men of sterling integrity, of the requisite
ability to fill the positions to which they
aspire, and with no entanglements that
will prevent or hamper the fulfillment of
duty should they be elected. Both men
are attending to their daily work at the
railroad shops, pursuing the even tenor
OF their way, but when the votes are
counted it will be found that they have
lost nothing by sustaining from resort to
the usual political tricks deemed neces-
sary to secure political favor.
