MINERS EXCITED.
Lead or silver Must Rise or Wages Must
Go Down.

Lead or silver Must Rise or Wages Must
Go Down.
SPOKANE, Wash, June 30.-There is con-
siderable excitement In the Coeur d'Alene
country over the silver question. There
are three things which are disturbing the
great mining districts--price Of silver, lead
and labor Several of the largest mines
have shut down within the last few days,
and others threaten to. A few days ago
miners in the Gem and Frisco mines threat
ened TO strike for an increase OF 30 cents
per day, and the troubles of year ago are
feared At the same time silver dropped.
and now the mines are closed. Workmen
in the Last Chance have now agreed on
scale of wages, taking part pay In per cent OF
profit, and the mine was opened yesterday.
Mine owners talk freely and say that
with miners working at $3.50. the car men
and shovelers at So per day, with silver at
20 cents and lead at 4, all the mines in the
Coeur d'Alene country can be worked
proftably and will continue to run. But
there must be an equivalent for this. Lead
or silver must rise or wages must 10
down. There is a great deal of anxiety,
and mining men hold daily conferences.
Unless there Is an advance in silver or lead
in n short time every mine in the Coeur
d'Alene country is likely to close. This
will stop the daily output of about Ia, 900
ounces of silver and $50 tons of lead. Mine
owners generallylwant the Sherman law
repealed at once, and a majority favor free
coinage as an experiment..

Monster Meeting Of siiverites Called FOR
by The Rocky Mountain News.
DENVER, June30. The Hon. Thomas M.
Patterson. editor of The Rocky Mountain
News, speaking in regard to the silver
question, said:
"In order to emphasize the ruin that
imminently threatens the transmissouri
country and especially the silver section
because Of the ruthless policy Of the money
power Of the east and Europe, The Rocky
Mountain News will call for a mass con-
vention In Denver of a character that In
numbers and influence will arrest the at
tention of the country to its protest against
the monstrous crime that is contemplated.
1t also calls for free transportation to and
from the convention from all Colorado
lines, the railroads being as deeply involved
In the results as any other interest"

BUCOIERI HANGED.
Over seven Hundred Persons See tho
Murderer Exec uted.

Over seven Hundred Persons See tho
Murderer EXEC uted.
RRApING, Pa. june 81. = Pietro Buccieri,
Me murderer Of Catholic sister Hildaberta,
was hanged here. The drop fell at 11:08,
and In eight minutes he was pronounced
dead, having been strangled. Ovsr $50 peo-
PIE were present.
Pietro Buccisri's crime was one of the
most 1sndish In the criminal annals Of
this statA He was born In ST. Peters, It
ally, 81 years ago, came to America 13 years
ogo and in 1880 drifted to Reading, where
he carried on shoemaking. In February,
1904, ho was admitted to st. Joseph's hos
pftal suffering from burned arm received
~ the explosion Of lamp in his shop.
4 On June % the sisters served the hos
pitaI patients with milk, and when Sister
Hildaberto handed him his he jumped out
oz his bed, pursued her with an open knife
ont into the corridor and finally into the
kitchen and plunged the dirk into her abb
domcn. She died the next day, and so
strong was the feeling against the prisoner
that there was some talk of lynching him,
bpt better counsel prevailed. and he was
given . fair trial last September, convicted
and sentenced TO be hanged.
Buccieri's motive for the killing of the
innocent sister has never been divulged.
and it IL the universal belief that he plot
ted the murder without provocation. and
An his own fiendish nature carried it out.
The supreme court, Governor Pattison
and the board Of pardons all refused to in
terfere.
During his incarceration he was stoiid
and Indifferent to his fate, and his infre-
quent reading of the Bible seemed to make
very little impression on him. His wife
and son and his mother and sister live In
Italy and have been informed of his fate.

'IHE SILVER SITUATION.
Secretary Herbert Says II Presents q
CraVe Problem to Solve.
IAHY MINES ARE CLOSING DOWN.
Tho Price or the White Metal Is Appa-
rsntly lower Than tho Cost OF Pro-
duciion--A Ciamor For the Repeal Of
the.sh rman law.

WAsuINeToN. June so Secretary Car
lisle received today numerous callers
among whom were many members of con-
gress. With all OF these the silver ques-
tion formed the principal topic of conver-
eation. and the continued decline of the
price OF silver was naturally adverted to-
The secretary had received cablegram
stating that the price of silver was today
in London 6sl% cents per ounce. at which
IS cents.
Nevertheless the point was Of course ap.
parent that the purchasing power Of the
silver dollar, with silver bullion at 6sH
cents per ounce, was as great today as 1t
was when silver was worth 81. 90 per ounce
and the bullion value Of the silver dollar
was o3 cents.
Il should he equally obvious that this is
90, because it is known that the credit Of
che United States Is behind its silver
money, as 1t is behind all of it's other forms
0f money, and without which none Of
them except gold coin and gold certificates
would be worth their par value In the
money markets of the world. This fact
was several times emphasized at the last
session of congress, when ex-Secretary
Sherman and others repeatedly declared
during the senate debates that there was
IN the treasury the bullion gold value of
every silver certificate issued by the gov.
crnment.
Secretary Herberts Views.
Secretary Hilary A. Herbert Of Alabama.
In reply to an inquiry as to the silver situ-
- ~1 hA ~ ha N
party. expressed the following views:
II think the stoppagc of the coinage OF
silver in India is the greatest blow that has
free coinage Of silver The free coinage of
object lesson by the advocates of free coin
age in this country.
1T has been urged upon the farmers that
India had an advantage over the United
States in a higher price for wheat because
the CURRENCY in India was all silver, ignor-
zng the fact that while they might get
more for their wheat in their own currency
the price in gold was no greater, and the
commodities they bought with the money
they got for their wheat had to be paid for
on gold basis, and still further overlook
ing the loss through high exchange.
AZ mas Iurtner peen ropeateuiy saiu tnau
Che high rate of exchange between india and
England was kept up by England for the
benefit of the English merchants that they
might sap the very life out of India. Now
the coinage of silver there IL voluntarily
stopped with the consent of India, and 1t
tumbles over both these arguments-that
the. silver currency was a benefit to. the
farmers of India, and that the exchange
was on system for the benefit of England"
do you think the silver question pre-
sents serious danger to the Democratic
party at this timer
1T is serious question which the con-
ditions demand should be settled. / think
we have reached a crisis and that the party
in power will be judged by the wisdom
they show In giving the nation o sound
ourrency."

is most wonderful yellow jacket $ nest
wonderful in size, age and locality.

they should be called, usually nest in

material like wasp nests, about the size
of half bushel, with several rooms.
or apartments, and many cells in which
the young ones are raised. They us

The nest in question is located upon
a pine tree, or rather around the trunk
of pine tree, that is about foot in
diameter, and il is about 1S feet above
the ground The tree appears to pass
through the very center of the nest,
which is conical in shape, or, as a farm
er expressed it. shaped just like an old
fashioned hoopskirt, - but much larger,
being about five feet high and same in
diameter at the base. which is as flat
as if it had been sawed off. 1t APP

AN INCIDENT.
| read the other day of two little
bootblacks who were bosom friends
Jim and Andy. A good angel directed
a ticket of the Fresh Air fund to Jim
during the hot summer days. He was
delighted at the prospect of vacation,
of fruit and fields and fun. But he
grieved because of Andy. They hatch
ed plan for Andy to take the ticket
and be Jim for week in the country
and then say he was the wrong boy
and after this he could go, and they
would both get the outing. Andy OBJ
jected to going first, and it was arranged
finally for jim to lead in'the scheme.
The writer says that the farmer and his
wife, with whom Jim went to spend his
holidays. made him heartily welcome
and told him they would do all they
could to help him enjoy himself, hut
he must promise not to say any bad
words nor tell a single wrong story.
Jim was staggered. What chance
would there be now for poor Andy?
The thought of his chum's disappoint
ment worried him, and all the more
when every day of country life and
country fare brought him some new
delight 1t seemed quite too bad that
his partner could have none of it.
The quiet habits and simple piety of
the farmers family, and their kind way
with him were revelation TO Jim---a
revelation of himself as well as Of
other things. Moral sense awoke III the
untaught street boy.
The thought came to him that if ne
could no; tell lie for Andy he might
tell the truth. All his new surround
ings encouraged the idea. and after some
hesitation he spoke of his little partner
in the city and confessed the scheme
that had been agreed upon between
them.
His good friends heard him with
moistened eyes. Two neglected boys
had at least been keeping the divine

From the very briet comments Of
those most Interested, we Judge that
tho frat movement in the dress reform
exhibit Mt Chicago will not result In a
general change OF fashions. Secretary
Rachel +. Avery created a decided sen
sation by standing on a table before q
large audience to show u costume which
is said to resemble that of the Turkish
women. 1t ia described in a vague n
certain way as a skirt of blue flannel,
reaching just below the knees, whore
the garment 10 divided and caught up,
leaving the ankles free aud unfettered.
1t appears that this exhibit was fol
lowed by a chorus OF feminine obs
which may DO taken to signify any
thing except approval. 1t has been ev-
ident from tho time of Eve that the
only branch OF dress reform which in
terests is that which adds to
her beauty.
