very easy to explain. Formic acid is

SCENES IN WONDERLAND.

President Diaz's Birthday and the
as it Never Was Before
The City Illuminated
Deaths Per
sonals, Etc.
MONTEREY, Sept. q, 1892.
To the LIGHT
The program for celebrating the
birthday of President Diaz and the
declaration of the independence o.
Mexico was carried out on grand
scale this year. The 18th being Pres
ident Diaz's birthday, the national
colors were flying from all the public
buildings; and the foreign consuls
had their flags flying TO the breeze.
Many of the principal merchants had
their stores decorated with the ma
tional colors and at night they were
illuminated with electric lights and
Chinese lanterns. There were thre,
military bands who discoursed sweet
music both day and night on the
plazas and In the theatre. Every train
that came into the city brought great
crowds of men, women and children
from every town and city between
Monterey and the Rio Grapde, Vic
toria and Saltillo, so that all the
hotels were crowded 10 their full ca.
pacity.
Ats p. m on the 10Th there was
large crowd assembled at the Alamo
da Porfirio Diaz to witness, the in
auguration of the new pavilion that
was recently erected there by Messrs.
J. R. and w. w. Price, of this city.
There were three bands who dis
coursed sweet music.
At night the ZsragoZa plaza, NUM-.
cipal hall and Casino were illumi-
mated with electric lights and Chi.
nese lanterns. There were about
five hundred of the latter In the Tara
goze plaza. 1t was full of men, women
and children until late hour.
The festivities were brought to a
close by q grand ball at Casino Sat-
urday night.
These celebrations are becoming
more popular every year in Monterey
especially on account of the peaceful
and prosperous administration of
President Dlaz and Governor Reyes :,
of Nuevo Leon. The country has
never prospered as it has under their
administration; hence they are be-
coming more popular every Year.
AROUND THE CITY HALL,
was hung in guilt frames, full size
oil pain tings OF Hidalgo, Allende,
Maros, Juarz. Galena, Bravo, Aida
ma, Guerrero, Rsyon, Csnons, Maria,
Josefia Ortez, Jimenez, Nina,
Guleana, Ramon Bravo, Mariana and
Abasola; all distinguished patriots,
who fought, bled, and died for the in
dependence OF Mexico. Photographs
of Hidslgo, Juarez, Disz and Reyes
were conspicuous every where
throughout the city.
In the theatre where the
sreakipg took place was beautifully
decorated on this occasion. The
weather on this occasion was all that
could be desired. 1t was dry, clear
and warm.

DEATHS,

There have been mum Der OF deaths
among the Americans the past week.
The first was a son of Capt. d II.
Milings, aged eight years and five
months. He was q very bright lad
and was'a great favorite with the
Americans.
Mr.. F. L.. RsDdle. Of Dallas, Texas,
a brother of Major Jules A. Randle. of
this city, died here last week, aged 81
years. Mr.. Randle had been in deli
cate health for some time, and about
three months ago he started for this
city for the purpose of taking q course
OF baths at the Topo Chico hot springs,
but he was taken down sick ere he
reached San Antonio. While there
he had an operation. performed on
him from which he never recovered.
Major Randle went for HIM and put
him in charge of the doctors at
the springs, but he kept grad
ually sinking until he died. He
was buried last week from the Ma.
jor's home in this city. The funeral
services were conducted at the house
and grave by the Rev. G. B. Marsh,
of the Methodist church. There were
a large number of Americans and
Mexlcsns attended the funeral.
The saddest death that occurred In
this city in many years was that of
Mrs. Teresa Zigack Glass, the wife of
Mr.. r. j. Glass, son OF Mrs. Glass,
the proprietor OF the Plaza hotel.
They were only married a few
months. She was q devoted wife,
aud made host of friends since she
came here. When she was taken sick
the best medical skill in the city was
called in. Doctors Brooks and Mills |
were at her bed side day and night,
and they did all that medical skill |
could to save her life.
Mr.. r. j. Glass and his aged mother |
are Frustrated on account of her death,
and the sympathy not only |
Of the Americans but the
Mexicans have been shown
them on this occasion. The room |
where the body Was laid out was |
filed with flowers, that were sent in |
by friends, and the corpse was ac-
to the grave by hundreds |
)t friends. Mrs. Glass was q native of |
San Antonio.

Special to the REcoRD-UN1ox.


SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 22.-The mem
bers of the Coopers' Union are out on a
strike, and in consequence a number of
the shops are short of the regular numb
Of workmen. The employing coopers,
however, have agreed to support each
other during the trouble. The grievance
the men have is relative to the apprentice
system only. Wages do not cut prom
inent figure in the controversy. The men
left their work and forced many of the
shops to get along as best they could. So
sudden was the strike that the employing
coopers were completely surprised, but
even at a sacrifice to their business they
determined to get along under the pres
ent conditions.
Saturday night or early Sunday morn

ence OF mind Of Foreman j. $. Nyland
OF the shop 1t Is more than likely that
terrible accident would have occurred to-
day had a fire been started under the
boiler. When Nyland entered the shop
this morning he had occasion to visit the
part Of the works in which the engine is
located. He was looking at the water
guage 10 ascertain the amount of water in
the boiler when his eve caught SIGHT of
the regulators. The three little diais did
not seem TO be in correct positions, and
on examination he found that they had
been tempered with to such an extent
that they were useless, and that if a fire
was started in the furnace an explosion
would follow. Nyland continued his
search, and what he learned is best told
in his own language.
'Suspecting," said he, "that if the en-

a thorough investigation, and to my sur
prise found that some person familiar
with the shop had entered il and pro-
ceeded to carry out work of destruction.
Some OF the bes3 machines that we have
were rained. Chisels were used, and
sledge-hammers assisted materially in the
work OF destruction. The cutting ma
chine is total wreck, the punching
machine is useless, and the windlass is
badly strained. The damage to the en-
CINE is difficult to tell, and it may be
ruined. 1t will not be safe TO start fire
in the furnace until an examination is
made.'
Upstairs more damage was done.
Drawing-kniyeS of the finest kind had
been shamefully hacked The knives
from planes were removed and denied in
manner that renders them unfit for use.
In fact, every tool that ha0 any promi
nence In the cooper's trade was demol
Ished. The person dong the Infamous
work knew what tools to select and how
to prevent them from ever being used
again. The work OF destruction is COM
piete. and practically prevents the firm
from proceeding with any work they
may have on hand. The police have
been notited, and close search may re-
suit IN lew persons going behind the
bars.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 22.-Last week the
Department of Justice, at the request of
a prominent knight of Labor official, re-
quested Examiner Crossthwaite to make
an investigation of the charges that pris-
oners taken during the time of the min
ing troubles in the Ceur d'Alene region,
in Idaho, were badly treated. To-day
the department received the following
telegram from the Examiner, dated Wal
lace, Idaho:
Il carefully examined the prisoners
and jailers here giving the prisoners OPP
portunities to make complaints, and find
absolutely no grounds for the reports of
improper treatment of the men at this
time. There is an abundance of good
food and pure water. Considering the
circumstances the treatment of the pris-
oners IS most liberal and they are
comfortable, and complaints purporting
to come from prisoners here either relate
to conditions which might have existed
when large numbers were first arrested
or else they originated i'll the minds of
sympathizers, who did not confine them

and Two Mines Closed.
WARDNER Qdaho), Aug. 22.-All the
saloons have been closed here and no one
is allowed on the streets after IL P. NJ.
The saloon keepers being strong sympa-
thizers with the union miners, their
places have been closed to prevent secret
meetings of the unions.
The Poorman and Tiger mines were
worked by union men who continued to
hold meetings and rendered support to
those who were locked out. General
Curtis ordered a shut down of both mines
to-day and will not allow the union men
to be employed at any point in the
county. In order to hold the troops
here to guard against a possible outbreak
as consequence of such shut down, the
order directing three companies to pro-
ceed to Coeur d'Alene City with prisoners
has been suspended, and the troops will
remain here until after September lst.
The law-abiding citizens are beginning
to chafe under the restraint of martial
law, some declaring that General Curtis
is abusing the power conferred upon
him. He has relieved the Town Marshals
of Wallace and Wardner, and placed
Deputy Sheritfs in full control.
The transfer of prisoners to Cpur
d'Alene was declared by Mr.. Cross
waithe, Public Examiner of the Depart
ment Of Justice, to be illegal until the
men are indicted by the United States
Grand Jury.

LONDON, Aug. 22.-Considerable anxi-

the work now carried on here by Nor
mon missionaries.
They have been especially active in
North London, and it is said have gained
quite number of converts to their faith.
A petition was recently presented to the
London County Council asking it to stop
Mormon PROSECUTING. The Council con-
sidered the petition and finally refused to
stop outdoor meetings.
a Baptist minister in Hornsey Dis
trict. in denouncing conversions from
his flock, stated that Brigham Young,
Jr., who is The European apostle of the
Mormon Church, sends 500 converts to
Utah annually, and the greater part of
these converts were English.
