John McGran said he was working at
the time in the trench near Noonan ana
suspected something was wrong and
ran out; Noonan tried to run the other
way, but was caught by the falling
sand. He could not account for the ac-
| cident.
Samuel George said he was working
at the time and described the accident
and recollected seeing the water rush
ing and carrying the sand into the
trench. Dennis Roach, an inspector in
the employ Of the city, said he was
| on the opposite side of the trench when
the accident occurred and saw the
rush of water and the whole bank
'fopped over" Cross-eXamined By
Major Warren, he said the water. pipe
was not exposed The timbering was
done as the work progressed and was
started when the trench was four or
| five feet deep. Cross-examined by Col
lionel Fit2simmons, he said the timber
ing was sufficiently strong for the pur-
pose, and would have been "all right if
the water pipe had not burst
John McCann swOee that it was
the worst hole he had ever
put his head into and the timbering
was not safe, neither had the bracing
| Deen properly done. CrOSS-eNamined
by Colonel Fitzsimmons, he admitted
he had been discharged a few days be-
fore the accident. Peter Mulligan, a
contractor, was of opinion that the tim
bering was perfect, while Patrick Mul-
len, an employe of the Gas and Water
company, declared that the timbers
were not driven to the bottom of the
trench and that this was the cause Of
the accident. In reply to Colonel FitZ-
simmons, he explained that he was
closing the hydrants at the time, but
this would not be sufficient to account
for the bursting Of the pipe.
Would Not Burst the Main.
Superintendent Reeves, of the Gas and
and Water company, gave evidence to
prove that the closing of the hydrant
would not account for the bursting OF
the company's main. The jury consid-
cred the evidence for considerable
time, but were unable to agree on q ver-

JURY Was unable TO AGREE
Adjourned Inquest on Death Of Joseph
NOOnan Held Last Night.
CROSS EVIDENCE WAS GIVEN
Testimony Against the Scranton Gas and
Water Company and Against Fer.
guson 4 Rooney, the Contractors.
Inquest Occupied Two Hours.

The adjourned inquest upon the death
OF Joseph Noonan was held at the court
house last evening. Noonan, who re-
sided ON Third street, Bellevue, met his
death on Saturday while working in a
trench on Mineral street, caused by
the falling in of the side, which was
of sandy nature. The deceased was
buried alive, as the debris could not be
removed in time to rescue him.
Coroner Kelly presided and the fol-
lowing acted as the jury: j. j. Burke,
i. F. O'Hara, James A. Riley, c. f..
Potter, George Boerig and George G..
Reed Major Everett Warren appeared
for the Scranton Gas and Water COM
pany and Colonel f. j. Fit2simmona
appeared for the contractors, Fergu-
son & Rooney, who employed Noonan.
A large number of witnesses were
called who assisted in removing the
body, but were not present at the time
Of the accident. Peter F. Jones, who
was upon the scene before the accident
said he was OF the opinion that the
timbering to keep the sand in its place
was not sufficiently strong. Michael
Noonan, brother, and John Noonan
father of the deceased, gave evidence
OF insufficient timbering, but We're un.
able to testify as to the casualty. Ed.
ward Boyle and p. Rooney gave eyi
dence of the width of the timber EN-.
ployed and as to their working in the
trench.

chile man, devoid of finer feelings, she
still believed that the married form a
higher caste and have right to look
down upon, to pity and snub old maids.
After pensive moment Louise said
rather meelSly, II don't suppose / do
know much about such things"
Helen went to the mantel glass and
tipped her hat little more becomingly
over her face II have thought, Lou
ise, she began, II should like to make
myself independent Of Monte, so far as
pin money is concerned, though do not
say he is niggardly. But I think 1t
would put me in better moral posi-
tion. could assert myself with more
success.
"What could you do?' asked Louise,
again bending over her work.
"Oh. / don't know. ! have been
thinking about IL, and can't see my
way very clearly I was fond Of art
when was girl, and my master said
did remarkably well. He praised my
drawing"
"From nature?" Louise asked with
out raising her head.
"Oh, no, from his pictures, the un-
salable ones, which he let me copy as a
great favor You think it would be ri
dicnlous for me to attempt to teach
drawing, or to put my work ON the mar
ket, see you do you, satirical old Lou
ise"
IT have not opened my lips, Helen.
Why should you not try? Everybody is
trying now to dabble in some form of
art
"No; / shall not seriously attempt
that" returned Mrs Monte, with a
sigh. 81 am afraid my Swiss noun
tains, waterfalls and chalets might look
rather antiquated If dragged out at this
time Of day. But there is music, il /
only knew it correctly, but having had
great taste and facility in music / new
er learned the science, and play mainly
by ear. Monte in our spcony deys used
to say l played divinely. But now--oh,
Louise, how thankful you ought to be
you have not married to suffer this illu-
sion, to see all your cherished dreams
vanish, to have your hoart lacerated''-
'Yes, yes" said Louise, little
brusquely, ''but what about music? You
do not know it we'll enough To take pu=
pils?"
1.-The spirit the sentiment, the aro-
ma, the inspiration, all are with me, !"
returned Mrs. White, "but how could /
ever teach awkward little fingers to
strum one, two, tfiree-one, two, three?
No; was not made for that. ] have
thought of typewriting and stenography,
but am too original, too emotional,
too instructive to do copying--tedious,
dry, unimaginative work"
She arose and bent gracefully to the
mirror, patting down the little fluffy
curls over her forehead with two or
three touches of her prettily gloved hand.

There Is something mysterious 60

''Sbe does does she? Well, she can

THERE is nothing but danger in the

La GOMEZ, March "a. 1884
To fHR EDITOR: Please inform the hop
growers of this state that the reduction OF
the tariff on hops from Is TO 3 cents per
pound proposed in the Wilson bill Is still
further reduced by the senate finance
committee to 20 per cent. ad vaioren.
Hops would have TO be imported at 20
cents per pound. upon the ad valorsm
basis. TO equal cents specific duty, or IS
cents TO equal the lucent Mckinley tariff.
When 1t is understood that I'D valorem
duties are always based on the exporters
invoice and that orr importers often buy
hops in Germany ~ low as 10 cents per
pound, equal TO only 2 cents duty. the in
justice Of the senate change will be more
apparent. Let every hop grower in this
state send protests to Senator Squire and
urge the adoption Of the house tariff of
cents, as the old tariff of Is cents is out
OF the question with . Democratic con-
gress. The proposed I'D valorem duty 10
outrageous. JAMES PowER
The tariff bill is only part Of President
Clcveiand's scheme for the reorganization
of American industry. He proposes to
admit Chinese. Although the hop grower
will get less for his product. he may save
money by employing coolies to cultivate
and pick the hops, If the administration's
policy prevails.
