a MINER KILLED.

Joe Spence Crushed by Fail
ing Slate.
At the Peach Orchard mines last
Monday man named Joe Spenci
was killed by a large piece OF slate
falling upon him. He was badly
mangled. The piece OF slate was
five by 6 feet, and eight inches
thick. The unfortunate mans
brother was in the same room at
the time of the accident. An in
quest was held and the jury decId.
ed that no one was to blame. The
room was properly timbered, but a
flaw which was not discovered
caused the accident.

Hon. c. NJ. Claws speech.


The speech OF Col. Casslus M.
Clay Jr., last Tuesday afternoon
came too close upon our press
hour for a notice. Therefore 1t was
deferred until this week.
The notice of Col. Clay's coming
was very short and consequently
there was rot large crowd pres
ent but those who were there will
agree with the statement that the
speech was one of truest merit ever
heard here. In the opening OF his
speech he disclaimed any oratori-
cal pretentions and declared that
he was only plain business man
a farmer by occupation. But from
the manner in which he handled
his subject It soon became appar-
ant that he Is scholar, a logician
and a man OF broad ideas. He did
not coniine the discussion Of tho
tariff question to this country, but
argued il from a worldwide view
a number OF well posted persons
who heard the speech pronounce il
the clearest and best speech they
ever heard ON the tariff.
Col. Clay is highly educated
widely read man, and has shown
superior executive ability. lie
