Ten Killed and Twenty Injured In a Smash
 up on n Foreign Railroad.

BRUSSELS, Sept. 10.-Ten persons wcre killed and 20 injured by the wreck of the Paris and Cologne express train. Tho ac- cident happened at Apilly and was caused by 6 collision of tho express train with Q freight train which was being shunted. Tho engineer saw the danger ahead and reversed his engine. This had tho effect of reducing the speed and rendering tho accident less severe than it would other wise have been. As it was, the wreck was n very disastrous ono.
 passenger on the train, who escaped with slight injuries, says that the shock of the collision was tremendous, and that the forward cars were reduced almost to atoms. The bodies of the victims were badly mutilated, in some cases the head being severed from the trunk.
 It is reported that the station master at Apilly, on seeing that a collision was inevitable. jumped in front of tho cx- press train and was killed. The list of dead and injured docs not include any Americans

Cost of Electric Cooking.

It has been shown by recent expert monts that there iS practically no differ. cnce in co>t between cooking by cleo tricity and by coal, while the advan- tages of the former method in point of comfort. cleanliness and safety arc con siderable. Of every 100 tons of coal burned in an ordinary cooking stove 9t tons are, it is said, practically wasted, whereas with electricity the expense i: not so much on the fuel as on labor and interest on machinery.

A Hottie StopDer

If you want a stopper for bottle of acid or any substance that would natu- rally call for glass stopper because of the danger that the cork would be eaten up by the contents of the bottle, take tho cork and steep it in vaseline. It will then be impervious to acids of any kind, and no action of chemicals will decay it. It will, in fact. be as good for all purposes as glass stopper-New York Dispatch.

Many Towns Were In Danger.

ST. PAUL, Sept. lO.-A gale of wind was blowing in the neighborhood of Mora and Milaca, on the Eastern Minnesota, and the smoldering forest fires wero quickly famed into n furious blaze, which for a time threatened Mora and Ground House, the latter place being particularly in dan ger. Tho wind, however. has since gone down, and for tho present at least the danger Is believed to be over.
 A train crow Is being held at Ground House to help in fighting the fires should they break out again and to take the peo- pie to place of safety If the fires get be- yond control.
 During tho afternoon the fires were raging on all sides of Ground House cx- ccpt to the south, having come within half n mile of the town. Tho population is be- tween 200 and 800, and all were out fight ing the fires during inc afternoon.
 Tho sawmill and lumber yard at Soules, which is south of Milaca, were destroyed, notwithstanding tho desperate efforts of the fro fighters, and tho loss will be heavy.
 Tho last rcport from Mora received in this city was that the town was in no immediate danger, and a report from St. Cloud states that trains went through the fro territory between Ground House and Mora safely. A later dispatch from St. Cloud states that Mora and Ground House are out of danger at present, as tho wind has rOno down.

DULUTH, Sept. Io.-Forcst fires were TO- newcd again in this region by a heavy southwest gale, which steadily increased in force. The bright sun was shut out, and the horizon again took on the sickly yellow coat of the fatal Saturday a week ago There was great excitemeft hero, and every one rushed to telegraph and train dispatchers' offices.

Paul and Duluth passenger train because of fires on all sides of it, and Mora. on the Eastern Minnesota road, was reported on fire.
 The operator at Mora, on the Eastern Minnesota. was chatting with tho opera tor at Duluth about the threatening of the fire. Ten minutes later he said: It's getting awful hot down here. Tho people have nearly all taken refuge in Snake river, and I'll have to follow unless there's a let up
 Just few moments passed. and he said: II fly. Thirty"
 Tests of the wire a few minutes later proved that they had gone up, and 1t has been impossible to raise Mora since. The people took warning, and all are believed to be safs.

 Governor Peck Criticised.
 WEST SUPERIOR, Wis, Sept. Io.-May or Woodward and k. L. Belknap re- turned from New York, and a meeting of the general relief committee for fire suf fcrers was held.

 The general relief committee criticised tho action of tho governor at their meet ing, and tho opinion was expressed that he had acted without proper investigation into tho requirements of the fire sufferers. Mayor woodward's action in calling for help outside tho state was unanimously approved, and tho various newspapers and persons whom he had seen in the cast were notified to that effect by telegraph. Mayor Woodward autographed Governor Peck asking him If he had investigated the needs of the fire sufferers in this vicinity and if so what stops woro being taken.

LAND SETTLEMENT.

p. q. lies have as many lives as a
cat. Lately p. G.. propaganda in
the States referred to the scheme OF
settling the crown lands, saying that
there was no show for people desi-
rous Of being settlers under the
monarchy. This lie has been nailed
over and over again here, but it is
repeated with as much JUNCTION as
ever at home and abroad. The
truth is that the best scheme OF
settlement Of either public or pri-
vate lands ever broached was that
adopted by Queen Liliuokalani two
years ago. II reserved the lands
strictly for settlement by Hawaiiaus,
preventing their ever becoming the
prey of spectators, and required
the settlers to plant a certain pro-
portion of the land in coffee, 50 as
to ensure a steady product. All the
terms were exceedingly liberal. A
recent issue Of the =. q. organ had
the audacity to talk Of benefits the
native Hawaiians would receive
from confiscation of the crown lands
10y the oligarchy. What some of
the leading supporters OF the oil.
garchy have their cupidity whetted
upon just now is the prospect Of a
scheme being devised which will
make the crown lands prey to the
mortgage-broking land sharks. They
could never have become so under
the Queens plan. While the organs
have 50 much to say about lands
held from the people by the mon
archy, cannot they add something
regarding the amount Of benefit tn,
public has ever received from til,
vast land holdings OF the pillars %
the oligarchy!

amassed under the "rotten mon
archy."
All these "thoughts" lead up to
an application" which is this:
Ii there was ever the need of able,
experienced and industrious poll
ticians at Washington in behalf of
the Hawaiian democracy that need
exists now in supreme degree.
Which means: "If you don't want
me in either Council or Cabinet here
for fear Of injuring the odor Of
sanctity (or Of sugar. in those places
of the elect-let me go to Washing
ton as somebody who knows the
tricks Of American politics, and IL
the salary is made an object I'll not
trouble your sacred soil any more.

of the Star"
Here is another little snorter
standing all by itself in the same
paper:
Communications from the Para
disc OF the Pacific seem to have
better chance to reach the Councils
than resolutions OF the Annexation
Club.
An editorial article headed, a
Cloud on the Horizon" refers in
ominous terms to the warning by q
correspondent that the sugar men
are planning to shake annexation
and establish a planters oligarchy.
It says an attempt at such a thing
"would end in confusion and dis
turbance." Ha! The boys" are
not going TO stand any monkeying
from the owners Of nine-tenths Of
the property, and payers OF thirteen
nineteenths OF all the taxes. They
must hang together or hang separ-
ately, as the Chief Justice, who is a
planter, told them. A correspond
ent blackens the late ce-President
Of the Councils and President Of the
Annexation Club by referring to
him as "Claus Spreckels' attorney,
Mr.. +. NJ. Hatch, another sugar
man." A local reporter, in discuss.
ing the immigration question, un.
Willingly wipes away all the impu,a.
tion Of crime against the Queen
