Mine Inspector Harr is on the ground
making an investigation. An inquest

mine Immediately after the accident
The injured will all recover. AS soon
as the powder smoke cleared away it
was found that no damage had been
done to the mine, so that work will not
be interrupted.

NEW YORK, May 22.-What promises

the weekly wage system. The opera.
tives demand that manufacturers and
contractors renew the existing agree

Demands will also be made for an in

The strike is not likely to be ordered

Since the last strike the manufac-

to the smaller cities in this state, New

have been able to have a good deal Of it
done in sweat shops at low prices, un-

A MISSOURI MYSTERY.

Two Sisters Observation-Disclosures Find
the Body of One in Seine.
ST. JOSEPH, No., May 22.-Several
days ago Ada and May Wolfenberger,
aged 16 and 10 years respectively,
daughters of the proprietor of the Mid
way hotel at Oregon, mysteriously dis
appeared. Fishermen using a seine
in the Missouri river near here during
the day brought up the body Of Ada.
The arms of the girl were pinioned be-
hind her and her limbs were bound to-
gether with strong cord. There was
other evidence of foul play. The body
apparently had been in the water
three days OF more. Further dragging
of the river failed to reveal the body Of
May, but the search will be continued.
Complete mystery surrounds the case.
1t is supposed the girls were enticed
away from home and murdered, after
first being ravished.

YANKT0N LANDS.
Newly Opened Reservation
Dotted With Shanties OF
Homesteaders.
S00NERS GET MUCH GOOD LAND
The Rush of Settlers Not SO
Great as ExpeCted-Too
Short Notice.

ARMOUR, s. D., May %. The OPEN
ing of the Yankton reservation at noon
was not characterized by the formallty
and discipline heretofore attending the
opening Of vast bodies of Indian land.
The fact that sooners were not pre-
vented from going upon the land prior
to the hour when lawful settlement
could be made rendered the settlement
of this reservation a sort Of free.for-au.
In addition to those who had taken
possession OF claims during the past few
weeks other sooners had been quietly
going upon the reservation during the
past "a hours, while scores awaited the
hour when the reservation was de-
clared lawfully opened. The newly
opened land is now dotted with
The Shanties of Homesteaders
and preliminary steps toward the Guilt
walton of the land have been COM
menced. The opening was without
conflicts Of serious nature, and was
without question, in this particular,
the. most orderly opening of Indian
lands that ever took place in the West.
While the number Of homesteaders who
have taken lands on the reservation is
very gratifying, the magnitude of the
crowd was not up to expectations.
Among people living in the vicinity of
the reservation the reason given for
this is that too short notice was given
in the presidents proclamation and
that landseekers who do not read the
daily papers were not aware that the
reservation was to be opened so soon.
The land is really valuable and what
remains vacant will be speedily taken.

HUDSON, Wis, May 49, - Mayor
Hawkins Of New Richmond has been

Instead of going to the courts to seek
peaceful redress, last Thursday, about
midnight, some. Is men took the law
into their own hands. They raided the
old woman's house, broke in the door,
dragged her out Of bed and poured tar
over her entire naked body and then
rolled her in chaff and sawdust. They
then left her, thinking that they had
perpetrated a huge joke, well merited;
but the great mass of better citizens
did rot look upon it in that light and
count it as serious crime, disgraceful
to their city and county. Mayor Hop

TOLEDO, O., May PA crusade
against houses of disrepute that is Pc
culiar in many respects has begun in
this city. 1t is not prompted by any
love for law and order. but is purely
for personal gain. What is known as
the Vim law provides that a fine Of
$3.50 can be assessed in a civil action
for the selling of liquor in sporting
houses and it makes the owner Of the
property liable with the persons who
run the place. Several lawyers of this
city have taken up number of these
cases and already dozen of them have
been filed in common pleas court. As
half of the judgment goes to the per-
son bringing the action it is profitable
business and is proving more effective
than police crusade. Suits aggregat-
ing 500 were fled.

FOURTEEN BLOWN TO PIECES
Four Dead From an Explosion
in a West Virginia
Mine. ~

SAN FRANCISCO, May PA terrific
report and conclusion, which was dis
tinctly felt all through the city and at
towns around the bay for distance of
40 miles, was at first believed to be
caused by an earthquake, but proved
to be an explosion in the nitro ely cerine
and mixing houses OF the California
powder works at Pinole, across the bay.
The crew Of tho g4ycerine house, four
in number, and the foreman of the
mixing house were all killed, as were
nine Chinese working in the latter de-
part1nent The explosion occurred in
the nitro-glycerine house and was prob
ably caused by one of the Chinese drop
ping can of the explosive. The cause
cannot be definitely ascertained, how
ever, as all connected with the building
are dead. There were 200 Chinese in
the adjacent mixing room, and at the
sound Of the explosion all ran and the
majority escaped. The force of the ex-
plosion was tremendous. Huge trees
were thrown into the bay,
A Distance of Half Mile,
and nitro glycerine tanks weighing
Ton each are now lying 500 yards dis
tant from the scene. Hands, legs and
other parts Of the mutilated remains OF
the dead were scattered along the road
for mile. The nitro glycerine house
first went up, then the mixing store
house and gun cotton in the premises
followed. The nitro-glycerine house,
OF which not a vestige now remains,
was 3-story frame structure, 1900 by
so feet. It contained 5000 pounds of
nitro lycerine and 1000 pounds OF
Hercules powder. A remarkable fea-
ture of the explosion is that although
the storehouse containing 1000 pounds
of Hercules powder is completely
wrecked, itScontents are intact. In all

with roar and sheet Of flame. The
