SHE ACTS STRANGELY.
A Girl Whom Some Think Is a Crank and
Others That She Is Crooked.

There is young woman who is quite
tall, with dark complexion and dark
eyes, and whose hair on one side of her
head is quite short, as if the head had
been shaved recently. and the hair was
growing out again, has excited good
deal of discussion in the upper part OF
the city.
The other day she called at residence
on State street.. and asked il there was
girl employed there by certain name.
The christian name was all right, but
tine given name was not. She told the
girl that domestic who lived on Cum
berland street, asked her to come in and
wait for her at that house. She was
allowed to enter, was given seat, sat
there for about an hour and then left.
Monday she W ent to house on Gray
street and asked for the domestic. The
strange woman told her that her sister,
naming her, had come in town shopping
and asked her to wait for her as she
would be through with her shopping
shortly. The domestic gave her a seat

girl employed in the State street family,
who had happend to see the strange girl
ring the Gray street house door-bell,
called round to warn the Gray street
girl to look out for her. While the
were talking on the from t steps with
the front door closed, the strange girl
peered at them through the blinds in
the side-light. The Gray street girl
quickly sent her off. ana later discov-
cred from her sister that she had never
seen the stranger. and didn't know any
person in Knightville by the name of
Fleming, which the strange girl gave
as her name, or of Carter, which the
girl said was her aunt's name and tn. t
she lived with her.
Still later the girl went to the Sher-
wood and there she claimed to be from
St. John, and asked if none of the SER
wants came from the provinces. There
was one, and she talked with her and
had the same story to tell, that she was
to wait for another girl
The woman's manner was so suspicious
in each case that if she had any evil
design her conduct defeated her plans
But it seems more probable that she
is not right mentally, aud should be
looked after. It's little odd that her
advent in the vicinity should have
been followed SO quickly by the events
that transpired at Mr.. Carville' s, men,
toned in another item.

THE PoPULIsT.

Our Washington correspondent says /:
The Populists at the National head
quarters of that party do not admit that
they shared in the terrific defeat admins
lrtered to the democrats, although they
failed to elect as many members OF the
iionse as they calculated to. On the
contrary, they figure out great victory,
notwithstanding the loss OF Kansas aud
Colorado. Chairman Taubeneck, saws
they cast double the number of votes
this year that they did in 1892; the
Texas and N. Carolina will henceforth be
Popnlist States, and that the Populist
and not the Democrats, will be the prin.
ciple opponent of the Republicans in the
next Presidential election. He says
further that it is likely the Populists will
drop everything but the money question
~ the near future, ouly asking that
members of the party shall believe in
the free and unlimited coinage OF silver.
and that the party expects to eventually
absorb all Of the free silver Democrats OF
the House. Mr.. Turner, the Secretary Of
the committee, says the Populists cast
more votes in Colorado and Kansas than
ever before and the those States were
carried by the Republicans because DEM
ocrats who had heretofore acted with
the Populists voted the Republican tick
lists Senators will demand pledges OF GER
tain needed legislation from the party
that they assist to organize the Senate.
1t is generally believed in Washington.
however, that the Republicans will gel
the votes Of Senstors PETER, Stewart,
and Jones and have no tronbls in organ
iziug the Senate.

BLOWN To ATOMS
Two Hundred Sticks OF Giant Powder
Explodes in the Midst Of Il Gang
of Miners.
ANGUISH AND SORRowING
Eight Miners Blown to pieces-Heart.
rendering Scenes at the Mouth
of the Mine.

HAzELToN, Pa, July IA terrible
explosion is reported to have occurred in
mine near here this forenoon. Nine
men are said to have been blown to
pieces. Two hundred sticks OF giant
powder exploded in the midst of a gang
of miners at Stockton colliery No. 8,
and not enough of the mems bodies are
left for Identification. On account of
the distance of Stockton colliery from
the Mans breaker it has been customary
to distribute dynamite and other explo.
sives to the workmen at the bottom of
the second shaft, as they appeared in the
morning. 1t was Charles O'Donnell's
duty TO distribute the dynamite and
caps. The first men to go into the shaft
today were drivers. They went into the
stable to harness their mules and while
they were thus engaged the explosion
took place. Charles Schuggert says he
saw about dozen miners standing
about ODonnell receiving the powder q
moment before the explosion. All were
killed. The drivers were hurled every way.
Fearing that an explosion OF gas had
taken place and that collapse of the
entire mine was about to follow, they
waited for death as If paralyzed. In this
position they were found by some miners
from No. 7 who hurried through the
subterranean passage Headed by Supt.
Roderick corpse Of miners descended
into the mine and the work OF recovering
the bodies was at once begun, but il
wac with difficulty. Fragments Of human
flesh were found some distance up the
slope. cinging to rails and ties and
sticking to the roof while everywhere
were bones and limbs AS the boxes
containing the remains we're hoisted to
tho surface women tore their hair and
screams of agony rent the air. The
names of the victims as far as known
are Charles O'Donncll, Andrew Jaboel,
John Primbonc, John Koehl, Anthony
Moravitz, John Krinchock, John Mole
feslsi and John Brizzen.
