At FOrty-third street yesterday after
noon street car 80 struck country
mans huckster wagon. The wagon was
slightly broken and the driver made

owners name could not be learned.
John Mlchen, OF Forty-eighth street,
employed at the Riverside, fell over o
cross tie yesterday and was badly bruis-
ed He also sprained his knee very
painfully. He is laid up as result.
Henry March, a we'll known employe
of the Riverside, living in Benwood,
suffered painful accident few days
ago. He was at work changing the

of. He Is laid up as result.
Miss Title Mcdonald, a teacher in
the First ward school, fell in alighting
from a street car, Monday evening, and
fractured her left arm. Notwithstand-
ing this, Miss Mcdonald was at her
post of duty, yesterday, as usual.
A few days ago Engineer S. d.
Lydlck, OF Wood Bros, planning mill,
caught his small fuger between the
governors in the engine and had the
member nearly crushed off. Since that
time the injury has become much worse
and there are fears that the finger will
have TO be amputated.
Last Monday at the Riverside steel
works, James Barr, workman OF Ben
wood, suffered painful accident. He
struck a billet OF steel with sledge
and piece flew, striking him on the
| feshy part of the arm and Embedding
itself deep in the flesh. DR.. Mcmillan,
of Benwood, extracted the steel. The
injury is very painful.

The more the people think over it
and consider it in the light Of Mr.. Wm-
SON clear and condensed statement Of
its provisions and object, the better
they Ike the new tariff bill.
Il is far from being a free trade
measure. It is not even tarif-fOr-
revenue.only meaures. For abuses Of the
taxing power Of the government it
substitutes benefits. II the general
policy Of the bill is carried out it will
afford relief to industry, labor and the
consumer.
It's main object is the enlargement Of
our markets abroad, by giving Amsrl-
can manufacturers their raw materials
free. With the increase Of manufactur-
ing the producer Of raw material will
reap bis profs 10 the increased demand,
for no country on earth can compete
with the United States in all the staples
needed in manufacturing. The proper
tlonate reduction in the tax on the
manufactured article is money ia the
consumers pocket and at the same time
a Knockout blow to monopoly.
Considering that the trainers Of the
measure had to deal with a deficit in
the Treasury-the legacy left the coun-
try by the billion dollar Con-
gress-and had. in consequence, to cut
its cloth accordingly, it has given the
country most admirable measure Of
relief from tariff burdens,
Outside Of the stereotyDed howl Of
Republican demagOgues and the repre-
sentatives OF the trusts, the only obiec-
ton to the measure heard thus far, is,
that it is not radical enough, that it
does not carry out to the full the
pledges OF the Chicago platform, which
promised a tarif-for-revenue-Only.
Maybe not, but it carries out to the
full the true Democratic policy Of
Tariff Reform, as defined by Mr.. CLEvE-
LAND in his letter Of acceptance. 1--WE
wage no extorminating war against any
American interests" be said; "we be-
lieve readiustment can be accomplished
in accordance with the principles we
profess without disaster or demolition;
we contemplate a fair and careful dis
tribution Of tariff burdens, rather than
the precipitation Of free trade"
This is the wise and conservative In
depreciation Of the Chicago tariff plank
which the Ways aud Means Committee
has taken as a compass in framing the
new tariff bill.

TWO PEOPLE BURNED
As THE RESULT OF A GASOLINE
EXPLOSION,
On the South Side, Last Evening-Didn't
Know It Was Loaded-0her
Accidents

About six o'clock last evening a gas
Ollne lamp exploded in William Young
mans grocery store, between Twenty
fifth and Twenty-sixth streets, on EOH.
By the explosion two persons were
badly burned. but not dangerously, and
big fire was narrowly aVerted.
Daniel, aged fourteen, a son OF the
grocer, was pouring gasoline into a jug
from large can. A gasoline lamp was
being held over the can. Tho fluid in
the can ignited and there was an explo-
sion. The boy was badly burned on
the arm and leg, and large amount OF
hair was burned from his head.
Mr.. Youngman rushed TO his assist
ance, and then the flaming can went
into the street. He, too, was severely
burned on the hands and arms in
throwing the can out After the fam
ing can was thrown into the street, box
% was pulled and the district depart
ment south of the creek responded.
When they got there they had nothing
to do, as the building did not catch.

JONAH AND THE WHALE.

DR.. BIIGGS still manages to keep him
self before the public.
In his recent address before the
Young Mems Hebrew Association, in
New York, the doctor said that Bioli-
cal criticism 'fs sitting the rubbish" in
the Bible. Speaking Of JONAH, he
predicted that the authorities would
have to come over 10 the position Of the
critics that the story is an inspired
work Of the imaginstioR-a beautiful
religious story, and nothing more.
Several leading dlvinss Of the Pres
bvterlan church have been interviewed
on the subject, and they show a dispo-
salon TO ignore DR.. BRIGGS and his
Mons. DR.. PARRHUBsT said that he
did not think it necessary for any prac'
teal person to bother his head about
the question Of whether the story OF
JONAH and the whale was an historical
fact or An inspired work Of the imagi-
nation. DR.. JOHN j. STEVENSON said
that be did not care for DR.. BHee's
sopinion, as all negative testimony is
worthless in attacking the received
truths Of the Bible. DR.. ROBERT F..
SAMPLE, who was on the committee
that prosecuted DR.. BBIGes, said:
I believe, as the present church teaches,
that the Book Of Jonah is historically
all T.
Iv belive that Jonah was swallowed by
eome great fsh and lived m 10 Tor three
davs and three nights. Tradition says
that he was cast up on the coast OF A
evria between Tyre and Are. had the
exact traditional spot pointed out 10 me
when was Assyria some years ago.
The Bible does not say that Jonah was
swallowed up by whale, but by great
fish. There is q fish in the sea to-day
which has q throat large enough TO swal-
low Jonah. looked the matter up once
and j think the fish capable or SWALLOWING
Do human being is q white shark.
In the language Of an exchange it is
not likely that the matter will be very
widely discussed, but it will be gen
orally regretted by good people that
many scholarly men who command the
attention OF the public spend so much
time in picking out portions Of the
Bible for the purpose Of diserediting
them By their highe criticism. An
attack upon JONAS viii neither hurt
him now, nor help any human SOUL II

THE OLD STORY.
He Didn't Know 1t was Loaded, and
Narrow Escape Followed.

He Dldn't Know 1t was Loaded, and a
Narrow Escape Followed.
Another example of "he didn't know
It was loaded" occurred, between Ben
wood and McMechen, last Sunday.
A party of fourteen young men Of
Benwood started for walk. One OF
the boys had large old style revolver.
The curious article was being handled
by the boys, and jos. Burns
finally got hold of it, and in a
Joking way pointed it at Harry
Quigley, snapped the revolver four
times, thinking there was no charge
init. Burns then said he might as well
shoot himself, and pointing 1t at his
foot, he snapped it again. This time
it went of with a loud report. The
ball penetrated through Mr.. Burns
shoe, just grazing his toes. Mr.. Quig-
ley, at whom the gun was aimed, is re-
garded as having made a miraculous
escape.
