Florence's Railroad. Florence Times.

The outlook for a through line of rail- way for Florence is brighter now than probably ever before. Renewed interest is now felt in the line from Florence to connect with the Paducah, Tennessee and Alabama road at Hollow Rock, on account of the fact that a movement is on foot to foreclose the latter road, and also the Birmingham. Sheffield and Tennessee River road, with the view of filling the short gaps between Florence and Hollow Rock and between Jasper and Birmingham, and thus accomplish a purpose for which certain capitalists and railroad men have been working for sev- eral years past. The Times has strong reasons for believing that this big plan is now on foot and with bright expecta- tions that it may be realized. A through line of railway is what. our people ar dently hope for. 1t would be of immense advantage to us. and we shall watch the proposed movement with unabated and profound interest.

This summer has witnessed a great many conventions. The teachers in Den yer, the Endeavorers in Boston, the Ep- worth League in Chattanooga the Elks in Atlantic City. have been among the largest conventions held. To these great gatherings the delegates go from all parts of the country. They get acquaint- ed and they discuss not only the purpose that brought them together, but they dis cuss the problems of government They get each others views on the great mon- etary discussion now going on. They get in sympathetic touch with one another The diverse interests of the different sections of the country are nodded into a homogeneous whole. The union is held together by sympathetic sentiment, and the closer the people are brought togeth- CT the stronger becomes the union. These conventions are valuable agencies for bringing people into sympathy, and they are supplemented by the summer resorts. In fact, the summer season has an i'm portant influence on American life This is the time for travel and the formation of friendships. The heat of summer, forc- ing people to the seashore, also welds together American citizenship.

The Democratic party is getting into good shape again after the defeat of last year. The hard times have let up now and the feeling of animosity against the Democratic party is dying out. Then the party has declared against free silver, and that is strengthening it with the people. It was expected last year that the Republicans would win. The tide always sets against the party in power if hard times prevail. The average man wants to hit something at such a time, and even if the party in power is not re- sponsible for the hard times he will vote against it. The party in power suffers from panic In 1887 Jackson abolished the United States Bank, and numbers of State banks sprung up. These issued worthless currency and a. panic followed. In 1S40 the Democrats were voted out. The Republicans were made responsible for the panic of 1873 and lost the Con- gressional elections in 1874 and really lost the Presidency in 1876 on the popu- lar vote. Everything is now favorable to the success of the Democracy next year.

NEW YORK, Dec. 22.-Whatever hope

cheers and when President Elias Marks
stated that the following card had been
hung UP in every contractors shop in
New York, Brooklyn, Jersey City and

WASHINGTON, Dec. 22.-The course of
the Senate this week will depend largely,
if not entirely, upon the turn which
affairs shall take in the House. The SEN
ate adjourned yesterday until Tuesday.
In the event that the House should adj
iourn over the holidays, the Senate will
be ready to acquiesce, as a, majority of
the Senators are still unquestionably ia
vorable to the usual holiday recess. The
probability points strongly to the absence
of a quorum the greater part of the
week. in case no recess is taken. The
calendar contains only one bill of gen
eral importance, and not to exceed half
a dozen minor bills. Consequently, there
is little prospect of actual legislation in
any event. 1t is, therefore, more than
probable that whatever sessions are held
will be devoted largely to speechmaking.
If the House should send over a. tinan-
cial or revenue bill, there would be no
possibility of receiving a report upon 1t
for some time, but such a measure might
afford subject matter for informal
speeches.

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, Dec %
The saddest scenes ever witnessed in
this state were enacted in the little
mining city Of Dayton today. In six
teen households the cries of despairing
widows and helpless orphans. the
heartbroken grief of mothers, relatives
and friends. disturbed the peaceful
quiet of the Sabbath. the sixteenth
mangled corDses, victims of Fridays
brothers and kinsmen, were carried to
their final resting places in the little
cemetery adjoining the town.
Brief religious ceremonies were held
at each of the stricken homes of the
unfortunate men and at o'clock the
last body was laid to rest.
The work of rescuing the six men
whose bodies are still buried beneath
the debris of the cave-in of slate and
earth was stopped last night by the
accumulation of gas in the entry where
they lie. The large new fan recently
purchased by the company was put to
work today, but did not work salts
factorily so the rescuers are still un-
able to get into the mine. At 4:30 this
evening the fans began their work
again. and air at the rate of 400 cubic
/ feet per minute has been forced in
since that time. 1t is expected the
rescuers will be able to resume work
| tonight The company has decided
that hereafter open lamps will not be
allowed in the mines and all blasts
will be made by a fire boss who will be
assigned to the men, who will work
in sections.
State Inspector Clute stated tonight
that so far as his investigation mao
/ gone. the company had taken all the
REQUIRED precautions against accidents.
He is still taking evidence of miners
and employees who refer to the cause
of the disaster.

FREAKS OF A LUNATTC.

WICHITA. Kan. Dec. 22.-John
Lipgay, a prominent farmer living
near Goddard. this county, who went
violently insane last Tuesday and
drove his family from home, was cap
tured yesterday after having stood the
officers off for five days. He was
barricaded in his house and shot at
every man he saw, keeping the neigh
borhood in terror
The first sheriff's posse that left
were unable to do anything. Yester-
day, however, Lipgay's oldest daugh-
ter became desperate and went to
the house with some food for him,
though the officers tried to prevail on
her not to incur the danger The in
sane man was ravenously hungry, and
when he saw that his daughter had
food he permitted her to approach.
When he put his Winchester down to
eat, the girl grabbed it, and then the
sheriff's posse rushed in from the Or
chard and overpowered him.

strongly that they snapped like pipe
stems when the heavy ice brought down
