Hale NOT INTOXICATED.
His Angry Denial of Young Mr.. GU

HAVERHILL, Mass, March 14.-Walter
Scott Hale, who figured SO prominently in
the Parker House war of words yesterday,
in which challenge to fight duel with
pistols is said to have been given and &C
copied, is indignant over the statement
made by Thomas Gilroy Jr., that he (Hale)
was intoxicated.
at is absolutely false that I was intoxi-
Gated" said Hale. This can be vouched
for by Sidney Young, who was with me-.
Gilroy threatens to bring up my record in
court next month, but will be ready for
him. know thing or two about him,
and he had better look out"
Sidney Young, who is well-known bust
ness man, said: ''The denial of the story
by Gilroy is no good. Both parties were
heated and the story of the whole affair as
given by Hale yesterday is substantially
correct"

Uncle Sam Sends Very Pointed Harm
ing to Spain.
CHICAGO, March IA special to the
Journal from Washington says: This firing
on American vessels bound to and from
South Atlantic ports must cease. The
Alliance incident must not be repeated.
1t matters not whether Captain Crossman
was within or without leagues distance
from the shore. He was in the regular
route of vessels passing between the United
States and southern ports. 1t is recog-
nized thoroughfare and must be respected
by Spain as such as far as ships flying the
stars and stripes are concerned.
The message embracing the sense of the
above, by the direction of Secretary Ores
ham, was to-day cabled to Minister TAYLOR
at Madrid.
NEW YORK, March IA special dis
patch from Colon to the World says: The
Colombian line steamship Alliance which
was fired upon by Spanish war vessel
off the eastern coast of Cuba on March
s, took no war materials from here when
she sailed on March 5. Her 100 tons of
general freight and 200 tons of bananas
quite filled her. Cubans here say that the
Alliance was fired upon because of the
belief she was filibuster. They say it is
an old Spanish custom to fire upon any
suspected vessel.
1t is reported that two schooners flying
the American flag and carrying arms are
wandering between here and Yucatan.
Cuban patriots here and in neighboring
countries are anxious to return to Cuba.
A special dispatch to the World from
Havana, signed by the editor of La Lucha,
says: No official report of the alleged firing
upon a merchantmen flying the American
flag by Spanish war vessel has been
made here. 1t is thought that since the
Cuban coast is being watched by Spanish
naval vessels one of them fired upon a sus-
picious vessel which did not obey its signal

Smashed and Set On Fire.
TERRA HAUTE, Ind, March 15.-Van-
dalia express-train was wrecked two
miles east of this city at 1850 o'clock this
morning. Conductor Rahm had his arm
fractured and several passengers are badly
bruised.
A head-end collision with switch en-
CINE caused the accident. Both engines
reared high in the air and the derailed cars
are burning fercely, and there are also
dozen loaded freightcars standing on the
track.
Both engineers and fremen escaped
serious injuries by jumping. The express
was running at a speed of thirty miles an
hour when the crash came. Two of the
passengers known to be injured are J. D.
Early, an attorney of Terre Haute, and the
other an actor of the "True Irish Hearts,
company, who refuses to give his name.
An air of mystery surrounds the wreck,
none volunteering any information what
ever.
The cars not damaged were taken around
by siding and sent on. The loss by fire
will be great, though the fire department.

DENVER, March 14.-Since the suicide

The people Of Homecoming, especially, have
reason to feel gratitied over the result of the

But examiner Weimer says we have

Indeed. the high school idea is a

management as during the last scholastic
year.

4 SOuuQ-MOncyD Dollar

A sound-money dollar is one which
will not only pay 100 cents worth of
debts, but buy 100 cents worth of
property and of commodities. The
workmen who earn daily or weekly
wages do not usually have debts to
pay, but expend the money they re-
ceive in buying food, fuel and cloth
ing. When they go to the grocery or
the bakers shop, or the dry goods
store, the dollars they offer are not
accepted at their debt-paying value,
but at their value reckoned IN the
markets of the world. Purchasing
power, and not debt-paying power, is
the test of sound money.-New York

Not q Homeless Case.

In the hurry of preparation last
week the JOURNAL failed to defend
adequately the individual, or in
dividuals, whom Mr.. Smith condemned
so Unexpectedly.
Mr.. Smith said:
The evidence then goes to show that the
JOURNALS conclusion was reached from false
premises. The JOURNAL has been misin-
formed as to school affairs, and the base
scoundrel who has been its informant should
be denounced as a lying villain, deserving
of the fate of Ananias and Sapphira.
AS before intimated, whether guilty
or not guilty, this is too severe.
The JOURNALS informant" or in
formants, are not justly arraigned
with Ananias and Sapphire. If he or
they lied, 1t was admittedly to the
JOURNAL, while Ananias and Sapphire,
according to Peter, were inspired by
Satan ''to lie to the Holy Ghost"
offense held by Adam Clarke to be the
objectionable sin.
Moreover, their crime was twofold.
Besides lying, they held on to the
Mammon of Money while pretending
to surrender all to the promotion of
the practical Christian Socialism which
illuminated the advent of the apostolic
era. In brief, to lying they added the
crime of attempted imposture upon
the most sacred of all influences.
No such charge can be laid at the
door of the JOURNALS "informant,n
or informants.
But even if it could be, not all liars
and hypocrites have been punished as
were Ananlas and Sapphira. Neither
Simon Magus nor Elymas, for in
stance, were thus condemned and
punished, showing that the fate of
Ananias and Sapphire was not de-
signed as a precedent for the trial,
conviction and instantaneous punish
ment of people detected In the or
binary sacrilege of christian truth and
integrity.
Far less so was it set up as au exam
pie of the inevitable fate of the every
day liar.
Otherwise, in all this land we would
have at this moment no Hon. Tom
Ochiltree nor Eli Perkins especially
if enthusiastic but unrlpe schoolmas-
tiers were the SIS. Peter of this day.

BORDEN SHAFT, Nd, August %, 1895.
To the MINING JOURNAL.
In your issue of August "A, under
the heading of "A Bad Combine" the
conduct of the Junior Order of Ameri
can Mechanics at the Cresaptown
picnic is badly represented.
The Juniors did not then, or at any
time, disgrace the American flag, and
would be sorry to think that any true
American lady would be ashamed of
the action of the Juniors on that
occasion. They acted as peace-makers
to a fight that took place between
four brothers, none of whom belonged
to the Order, and we, therefore. take
the liberty of requesting you to make
this correction.
We are very truly.

and sprawled Perdew. Meanwhile,
Robinson fled.

son.
Then Bradley prosecuted Perdew for
attempting to assist Robinson.
The trial came on and Perdew was
fined.
AS a matter of fact, nobody but
Bradley knew what Bradley was 60

dew were taken unaware. But blind

letting Robinson get away, and then
fined Perdew for allowing himself to
