COL. HART ON WOOL.

In WelIsburg, the other day, COL
HARr. OF the TatelligeNcer, made a
speech to his dear friends, the farmers,
on the subject Of WOOL Strange TO say.
the Colonel did not exhibit his 50 all
wool suit, nor even display the black
socks of which he boasts. He made re-
ally modest and, considering, an able
speech from the Republican standpoint
That he appreciates all this we conjeet-
nre from the fact that the esteemed IN
tclIigenccr's columns were numbered with
every word Of il in astonishingly correct
typographical form, and, also, from the
following from Col. HART's pen In the
editorial columns;

IL is a calm business discussion OF
strictly business question. There
isfu it material enough fora dozen speeches.
So. it will be seen that the Colonel
has no mock-modesty in proclaiming
the merits of his speech. But there

Serious Damage by overcharged wires.

BLOOMINGTON, ILL, September l2.-Dur-
ing the fearful storm of rain and electricity
which swept over Bloomington last night
six business buildings in this city were set
on fire by overcharged electric wires.
Three fires were going at once and the fire
department had a serious time of it. When
water was thrown upon the fires the men
holding the hose were promptly knocked
down by the currents taking the water. In
several instances the fremen could not find
the cut out switches and the fires could not
be controlled until the electric company
employees arrived and cut the wires.

PARIS, September 12.-The photo
graph studio in the Rue Button, in
which fatal explosion occurred Sat
urday night, was kept by man named
Chapron. 1t seems that the disaster
was caused by Madame Chapron drop
ping carboY containing sixteen quarts
of collodion. The fumes from the COL
lodion reached stove in the drying
room, and a fearful explosion at once
occurred which shattered the whole
house. A number of persons who were
in the building when the acct
dent happened were fesrfully burned
by the sheets Of flame which shot
throughout the whole place, and were
injured In the most agonizing manner
by the force of the explosion, their
limbs and bodies being disjointed and
covered with hundreds Of painful cuts,
the latter injuries being caused by the
showers of shattered glass which flew
liz every direction, and cut through
clothes and flesh to the very bone.
Two women jumped from window to
escape the torture to which they were
being subjected, and thereby received
additional hurts. A child ran shrek
ing into the street with its entire body
enveloped in flames, and was nearly
cremated before any assistance could
be rendered.

"The Power of the Press"

"The Power of the Press"
The elaborate character of 1.-The Power OF the
Press has attracted general attention, and the
excellence of Mr.. Pitou's company has served to
enhance the good work done by the authors in
the principal scenes of the play. 1t has been
most gratifying to have the prominence given to
the influence of the daily press so heartily ap-
proved at each repetition OF the lines touching
upon the subject, and the results thus far have
been most satisfactory both sides OF the curtain.
To see virtue rewarded and vice receive punish
ment is relief at times, after all, when one be-
gins to doubt ii there is such thing as poetic
justice. The melodrama always rewards the
good in the end, and the villain always receives
his long delayed punishment IL 1.-THE Power
OF the Press" Mr.. Augustus Pitou and Mr..
George H. Jessup tell the story of young ship
wright who, having fallen into the habit of
drinking to excess, gets into bad company, aud
Is unfortunately with some professional thieves
when they break into liquor store and
shoot the barkeeper. The hero is inno-
cent of all knowledge of the crime, being
stupefed with drink, but he is tried as one Of
the participators in the act, convicted and sent
to Sing Sing. On his release he 10 met by oppo-
sition in hie search for work through the plot

innocence through the power OF the press. The

LONDON, June Derby day, the great
day of all the year in the English turf cal :

skies cleared, and an immense throng was
present when the classic turf event was
run. The members of the royal family

Westminster's Orme was scratched, Baron
Hirsch's filly. La Fleche. has been the IA
vorite in the betting, with Rosecall, Bona

had put the course in fine condition. The
horses got away at $3.50 this afternoon. NJ.

French bred animal, by Saxifame, out of
Beniz, made most Of the running until
within quarter of mile when Lord

on won by three-quarters of length. La

one length before Bucentaure, Standel

The betting before the start was 40 to
against Sir Hugo. The time of the race
was two minutes forty-four seconds. Sir
Hugo was ridden by Alsopp. The crowd
was the largest gathered in many years.
Peter Jackson, the cOlored pugilist, was
among the spectators and attracted much
attention.
