JOHN MARREN'S DEATH.
1t Must Have Resulted from the Pre-.
mature Discharge OF Blast.


Hill City Tin Miner, March 1871
John Marren was instantly killed
last Saturday afternoon in the Coats
mine. The circumstances attending
his deatr, so far AS known are as
follows: Deceased arrived in Hill
City from Nevada on Saturday, March
5h, having previously worked as a
miner in Idaho, under Supt. ChIds.
Mr.. Daken, foreman of the Cowboy
aud Goats mines, gave him work as
assistant or chuck tender TO Harry

Pemberton having one more fuse TO

ladder; repeating the order. Marren
said: My ligh. is out" Pemher,on
said: "Nevcr mind your light, climb. "
Having finished, Prmherton began
climbing out, surprising both the
others had gone, the smoke from the
burning fuse filling the shaft SO that
he could not see, and while on the
ladder his light went out. The men
had only about Is feet 10 climb to
reach the station aud safety, but be-
ing unusually long in lighting the
fuse. the shots began going off when
h reached the station. On making
inquiry for Marren, Andrew West
berg, who hid been at the station
while the holes were being loaded,
said he had not come up. AS soon as
possible after the shots P-nberton
went down and found Marren at the
bottom of the shaft, deal. with his

One Of the most important features
of the Tariff law of 1890 is the Reci-
procity section.
Restricted Reciprocity would be
better term, as the provisions are linn
tied.
The law provides for the admission
into the United States, duty free, OF
all sugars not above No. l6 Dutch
Standard in color, molasses, coffee,
tea and hides.
Aud whenever and so often as tie
President shall be satisfied that the
government of any country producing
and exporting sugars, molasses, coffee,
tea and hides, raw and uncured, or
any of such articles, imposes duties or
other exAc,ions upon the agri ultnral
or other products OF the United
States which, in view Of the free
introduction of such sugar, molasses,
coffee, tea and hides into the United
>tates, he may deem to be recipro-
caily unequal and unreasonable, he
shall have the power and it shall be
his duty to suspend. by proclamation
to that effect, the provisions Of this
act relating to the free introduction
of such sugar, molasses, coffee, tea
and hides, the production of such
country, for such tine as he shall
deem just, aud in such case and dur
ing such suspension duties shall be
levied, collected. and PAID upon sugar,
mola> Uses, Coffee, tea and hides, the
product of or exported from such des.

Restricted reciprocity is not free
trade.
1t is only on non competing
products that reciprocal relations are
entered into.

THE RUSSIAN FAMINE.
A Stirring APPEAL for Aid from Pros.

porous America.
The Russian Famine Relief Com.
mitee Of the United States is sending
out successive appeals to the Gov
ernors of all the states, suggesting
official proclamstious; TO the mayors
of many cities and leading Boards Of
Trade, respectfully urging the i'm
portance Of systt natio work; to the
clergy of America asking them to
plead the cause Of a famine.stricken
people before their congregation; and
lastly, to all who WELD the pen in
journalism, praying them in the name
Of suffering millions to acquaint their
readers with the unprecedented mag
nitude OF the calamity that has fallen
upon the peasant population OF Russia
with the vast area over which the
famine prevails, and with the multi>
tude of those who are at this moment
starving, aud must perish unless ut
once relieved.
The Russian famine, so vast and
dire, is not alone, but is supple mtnt-d
by the freezing cold of a terrible
winter, aud by the distresses which
come in the train of an attending
pestilence which may, if not soon
checked, sweep over many other lands
MS well;
That the dread Russian famine is
there to stay even after the coming
harvest. unless hanished by the bene
factions of those in other and more
favored lands, who have enough aud
to spare;
That the Russian Government is
exer,ing itself nobly and heroically
for the res ,ue Of the people, both by a
municence worthy of a great nation
and BY the sacrifices of those who ad-
mini.ter the public affairs;
That, notwithstanding all this. the
ext, mt Of the famine is so great aud
the revenues of the Government have
been so far crippled by repeated anc
wide spread failures OF the crops, that
there is need of help from other
friendly countries-help immediate,
liberal and persistent, until the hung' ,
of starving people is stayed;
That, the rest of Europe having
also been impoverished, the bulk of
supplies must come from America, sc
grandly competent at all times, and
so wonderfully blessed with boun.ifu
crops the past season that she can senc
ship-load after ship load of food with

That the work of relief should be

That besides the spontaneous gift
that will at once flow in from tn

COULD STURGEON HAVE BEEN SAVED!
LONDON, Feb. l2.--ConsiIerable

The Rev. Francis McCammor, Of
the Manse, Bainbridge, like the Rev.
Mr. Spurgeon, was brought to the
ea,es OF death. He said: III had been
thinking for some time of using

man dissuadsd me from SO doing.
However, gradually got worse. and,

that the result of the use of three
bottles is most remarkable, indeed in

The Rev. George Waterman, Ber-
wyn Lodge, Broadstone, Wimborne,
England, said: 81 owe my presen,
health, even my life, under God, to
the use of Warmers Safe Cure. Dur
ing nearly two years had been un'

celebrated London physicians, but at
last he gave me to understand tina,
he could do nothing more for me. Al
that time Providence directed me to
try Warmers Safe Cure, the use OF
