A frightful wreck occurred on

bridge east of Revere, IN Clark
county, Wednesday night,in which
ten persons were killed, and four
teen injured. The embsnkment
under the approach to the bridge
was washed out, throwing the
track out of line, causing the en-
tire train, except one sleeper and
the engine to be derailed. Luther
Cornelius, son of d, 81. Cornelius
of this city, was among the killed.
John Guinan and Henry Patter-
son were each fined S. and costs
for following Henry Crout out of
town and beating him after he had
paid his fine. They were also in
dicted by the grand jury for the
same offense, but the indictments
were quashed, for the reason that
they had paid their fines. Some
attorneys are of the opinion, how
ever, that the fact that they paid
fnes does not stand in the way of
an indictment of the grand jury.

are ure to get a fair trial as touch
ing their status here, and of course
be admitted to citizenship. That

What Dana says.

Chas. A. Dana, Of the New York
Sun, has published an article, the
purport OF which is that ex-P President
Cleveland has been revising his views
on the silver question, and will short
ly give to the country a manifesto
that will astonish the natives. MIR.
Dana intimates very plainly that
something approaching free coinage
may be looked for. We hardly credit
the story. We have never heard of
an instance in which Cleveland
changed his mind about anything.
Indeed, it is his chief stock in trade
to assume to be firm beyond all men
OF his time This is what has given
him his great hold on the country. II
he is demagoging he has chosen the
most eligible route for the practice OF
that doubtful art. 1t is just as eany
to make q "bluf" on that line as any
other, and there are n great MANY
more votes ia it. Mr.. Cleveland has
been patted on the back for this
characteristic OF his nature until he
has himself become u convert to the
doctrine. Therefore we do not ex.
poet to ~ him take the back track
on silver. II he wore to confess a
change OF heart the people would be.
lleve bis word, and no would at once
become as popular ON the Pacific
Coust as he Is in tho East. But nc

The following are the resolutions
adopted BY the Republican State
Convention:
To the Republican State Conven-
ton: We, your Committee on Rsso-
~lutiOns, beg leave to report as follows:
Resolved That we condemn the
Republican party OF the E+stsrn
States and the administration Of
President Harrison insofar as they
have failed to accomplish the COM
plete RECOMMENDATION OF silver, and to
enact laws provic' 1g for the free and
unrestricted coinage of that metal.
RESOLVED, That the restoration Of
silver to the place it occupied pre-
Vious to the passage Of the Mint Act
OF 1873 fs essential to the prosperity
of the country and paramount to all
other political considerations. The
legislation which robbed silver Of It's
money function and denied to the
owner OF silver bullion the right to
have the same coined into money up
on the same terms and conditions
which apply to the coinage of gold,
reduced the money Of ultimate re-
demption OF payment about one half,
and enabled the wne Of money and
obligations payable in money to mo-
nopoli' Q the coin of the commercial
world.
REcohvGo, That the people of Ne
vada are in favor of the coinage of
silve. upon ne same conditions which
apply TO the CO.. -s of gold, and they
are opposed to elegat ~ any person
to Office who 3 not koown to be up-
~el'.Vocally in favor O; opening the
MINIS of the Uai, al States TO the free
and unlimited coina~s OF s.lven
RESOLVED, That the delegates
elected by this onv 1tion to the Ma
tional Republican, Convention, to he
held at Minneapolis on the 7th day
of June, 1892, be and they ara hereby
instructed to conte ID for a plain and
unequivocal declaration 10 the plat
form OF the party in favor of the coin
age of silver upon the SAME terms and
conditions whioh apply to the coinage
Of gold.
REsoLV~o, That it Is the sense of
this CONVENTION that delegates shall
oppose the nomination of any person
for the Office of President or Vice
President OF the United States who is
not pledged to the free and unlimited
coinage OF silver; and they are hereby
instructed to 8 all honorable means
to secure the nomination of candi-

She knows how TO set table,
And make order out of Babel
But She doesn't know Euripida from Kant

But she cannot tell true eloquence from rant.
She has quite firm conviction
She ought only to read fiction,
AND she doesn't care for science. not bitA

From Coppertfeld to Martin Chuzzlewit.

She's immersed in home completely,
Where she keeps all things so neatly,
But from Browning not line can she repeat
