ZAcArECAs, Mexico. July 6.-Frsnk c.
Lawson, an American merchant, of this
city, has been arrested and placed in Jail
on the charge of exceeding the limits pre-
scribed by an old Mexican law still in force
T. Gu atng matrimony. Lawson came here
about four years agol from the City of
Mexico bringing with him n pretty Span
ish woman as his wife. She died two
months after their arrival, and Lawson
took another young wife. She died also,
and the American CONSUMED TO exercise his
matrimonial propensities at q rate that
astonished the natives, particularly.
as none of the wives lived
longer than two or three months
after becoming q bride. Lawson never
after the demise of his respective wives,
when he would repeat the matrimonial ex-
pertinent. The peopIs of the city are very
conservative In such matters. and they let
Lawson alone with his remarkable and un-
fortunate domestic affairs until three days
ago, when it was learned he had married
his thirteenth wife since his arrival In Ia
catecas The authorities began working
on the case. and, as there was no evidence
ut hand to show that his twelve previous
wives died from other than natural causes,
he was arrested under the law enacted
many yeare ago which prohibits q man
entering into the matrimonial state more
than nine times. Lawson, therefore, has
four offenses TO answer for.

Scared by the Annexation Bugsboo.

TORONTO. Ont, July 5.--The News. an in
fluential Conservative paper. In On editorial
on ''The Duty of Loyal Citizens" says:
There are at least dozen journals in
western and central Ontario that. IL not ad-
vocates of annexation, are certainly far
from being strong in loyalty to Canada.
This is an evidence of the feeling among
certain sections of the community to which
many are willfully blind. There is no use
playing the ostrich act. An annexation
party Is either in existence or in course of
formation. and it Is the duty of loyal men
to line up, without regard To previous party
affiliations, in opposition to it."

Vice president who have been nominated

tice of Democratic principles and no dis
loyalty to the Democratic organization.
1t might cause the defeat of Harrison by
throwing the election of President into the
present House of Representatives. and it is
further possible that the electors who will
be chosen in Kansas, If the voting of the

Inc,

AMsTEkDAM, July 29.-The Handelsblatt of
this city publishes letters from Celebes, Civ
ing the details of the recent eruption of the
volcano Gunona on Great Sangmir island
The eruption commenced one day early in
June. Immense volumes of flame, smoke
and masses of stone suddenly burst from the
volcano. Stones fell all over the island, kill
ing hundreds of natives, who were busy in
the fields getting in the rice crop. Those
who succeeded in reaching the supposed
shelter of homes found no refuge, many
houses having been crushed beneath the
weight of falling stones, and the roofs hav-
ing collapsed under the weight of the ashes,
burying the inmates, in many instances
whole families.
Streams of lava flowed with frightful ra-
pidity down the slopes of the mountains up
on which there we're situated numerous farms
and villages. Houses and fugitives alike
we're overwhelmed by these rivers of molten
rock. 1t is estimated that over 900 persons
persisted on the slopes of the mountains and
hundreds more in the lowlands. But the ex-
act loss of life Is not yet known. The week
after the eruption abated the inhabitants
were still in state of terror and would not
approach the scene of disaster. The island is
now threatened with famine, all crops hev-
island the wells have become dry.
The Dutch of the colonies are doing their
best for the inhabitants of the island. Many
doctors have been sent to the scene of the
disaster. The inhabitants are nearly de-

Rarely save Anything.

CHICAGO. August 2-H. c. Aver, who Is IN
teres.ed in rolling mills in Youngstown, O.,
and confesses to have more money invested
in iron and steel works than he wishes he
had, said to some friends:
1--WE learn from the newspapers that some
of the striking mill men earn as much as 40
day. These are the rollers. The statement
falls short of the truth, for many men in my
employ at similar work have earned $50 and
$40 q day. They are skilled men in their
lire. Upon their skill depends the Merchant
ability of our product, and it is cnstlier to
put inexperienced hands in their place than
it is to pay them $40 day. Still they rarely
save anything out of their pay and are among
the most antocratic and difficult to manage
of any we have to deal with. have seen
them stop work and leave the furnaces full
of melted iron, causing great loss to the mill,
simply because of change In the lengths OF
rolled lion which really enabled them to earn
more than before. When their COMMITTEES
had called on US and received a detailed state
ment of the reasons for the change and its
effects on wages, then the men went back,
but not until the mill had suffered severely
through their hasty and ill-considered action.

Continued Heat.

In Chicago six deaths from sunstroke on
July %, with eight the two preceding days.
Mercury 30 at z a. m. and 81 in the afternoon.
Hospitals crowded, and no signs for cooler
weather.
In Kansas City the government station, the
coolest place, the mercury showed IS, while
in the streets it WAS 100 to 1O2. there were
several cases of prostrations and two deaths.
In Cincinnati it was SO in the government
station; eighteen prostrations, one death and
others will die.
In Detroit, no abatement of heat.
In Washington, d. c., the thermometer
registered 81; a number of cases of sum
stroke.
In St. Louis, IS was the figure; many
knocked out by the heat.
In Pittsburg, Pa. it touched SO; mill and
factory hands suffered terribly. large
number of prostrations.
In Topeka notice was given to men at the
Santa Fe shops that should any quit work on
account of heat they would not lose standing
by it. A number were overcome.
And SO the record stands all over the coun-
Try; showing succession of hot days not
often occurring; the general expression of
dispatches being that the record of hot spells
in the past has been broken.
