NEW YORK, Aug. 30.-Special cor

There is rumor that the Spanish
steamer VilldreTde, chartered by Gene
raj Campos as his private yacht, has
been blown up at sea. She went from
dry-dock to be cleaned and painted.
She left New York on the 2lst inst to
return to Havana. 1t is said she had
on board ton of dynamite, bought by
General Campos for use in the cam
paign against the insurgents. This
dynamite exploded with terrific force,
the story goes, tearing the ship into
fragments.
NEW YORK. Aug. 30.-The Valdrerle
belongs to the Spanish Transatlantic
line, and was chartered by Captain
General Campos for his personal use
during the campaign in Cuba. She az
rived here August 10 from Havana and
went into dry-dock, where her hull
was seraped, some paint was put on,
and she received some minor repairs.
1t was given out that she came here
simply to be painted, but that did not
satisfy those who reasoned that it was
coat of paint. A story got abroad that
when General Campos saw the terrible
destruction the insurgent General RO-
loft was causing with dynamite in
wrecking railway bridges, disabling
public works and lemolishing forts, he
determined to get some of the terrible
explosive fop the Spanish troops to use,
and he sent the gillarerde here afterit.

"THE NEW WOMAN"
Mrs. Ballington Booths AddPess Before
the Salvation Army.

NEW YORK, Sept. 2.-The address
of Mrs. Ballington Booth before the
Salvation Army. now encamped at
Prohibition Park, Staten island, ON
THE New Woman" is attracting
considerable attention here. Mrs.
Booth last night said in part:
'The revolving creature, gaudily at
tired in mans clothing, possessed of
strange notions about the home. wife
hood and motherhood, scorned and
Stunned by the men, is not my idea of
the new woman. The new woman,
according to the popular acceptance,
speaks of children as 'brats, says they
tire and aggravate her, and so she
bestows all her love upon some ugly
little pug-nosed dog, which she carries
in one of her mannish pockets. She is
also manhater, and in going forth to
seek emancipation and a worldwide
rule for her sex, she declares 1t to be
her mission to down and belittle him.
As for religion. it is too simple for her
strong mind. She is entirely indepen-
dent and free thinker.
IF you were to ask me what the
Salvation Army would do with the
new woman" continued Mrs. Booth,
lin reply, would say we would first
of all take her dress and change it.
Out of her huge sleeves we would
make dresses for the ragged children
in the slums, and the other garments
worn by her, which forbear to men
ton, we would give to the sex to whom
they belong. Her books, filled with
pernicious literature, we would throw
in the fire along with her cigarettes
and chewing gum, and after this 1
think we would prescribe strong
willed. self-assertive husband, who
would teach her that there is some
thing to honor in the other sex.
II believe in the advanced woman: l
believe she is capable of making as
good mother and wife as though she
had never stepped upon the platform,
or been admitted to the bar. Let the
education of women go on, only while
you are training them, do not forget
TO develop the heart"
Mrs Booth said, however, that In
Denver corps of mounted cavalry
woman" had been organized and were
doing effective work in the mountains
of Colorado, under the leadership of
Staff Captain Blanche Cox. There
the army carries on much of its work
among the miners and the use Of
horses was found to be almost q neces-
Sity.

international convention of men of the
| race, to be held there toward the close

to equal the enthusiasm that will be
created at the coming convention.
which will be the largest of it's kind
ever held in this country, Delegates
are coming even from far away Aus
trialia, from the Argentine republic,

STORM Al 4 CEMETERY.
Lightning Killed the Driver of the Hearse
and Created q Panic.

and Created . Panic.
BALTIMORE, Sept. "A funeral pro-
cession had just entered the cemetery
at Mount Winans last evening when a
terrific thunder storm broke, When
the lightning was sharpest and the
thunder most deafening, one corpse
was taken to the burial ground and
another was taken back. The hearse
had stopped at an open grave when
there was vivid flash, followed by a
deafening peal, and the driver of the
hearse, William Alsup, fell back dead
on top of the vehicle. One of the
horses was stunned, but quickly recov-
cred, and. with his mate, dashed
madly through the cemetery, dragging
the hearse along until it collided with
a tree. The colored people who at
tended the funeral became panic
stricken. The horses drawing II
carriages also became frightened and a
general stampede was narrowly averted
by the drivers. The lightning played
all about the cemetery where the
mouruers and attendants were, strik-
ing a grave and shattering the tomb
stone. The shrieks OF the women rang
above the noise of the rain and thun
der, and such of the men as retained
their wits did what they could to- quiet
their fears, having all they could do to
keep them from rushing out of the
carriages into the drenching rain.
The burial took place as soon as the
storm was over,

Vacation Time

Is at hand and is gladly welcomed by
all, especially those whose duties in
life have caused them to greatly run
down their system to meet the require
ments, physical and mental, forced
upon them. With these and others, IL
is important, whether at home, at the
seashore, or in the country, that some
thought be given to diet, and as
further assistance to nature, a good
building-up medicine like Hoods Sar-
saparilla had best be resorted to. II
the digestion is poor, liver deranged
and frequent headaches seem to be the
rule, Hoods will change all this and
enable everyone to return to their
home and business in refreshed state
of mind and bodily health.

No HOPE FOR THE MINERS.
Fourteen and Not Thirteen Lost Their
Lives in Colorado.

Fourteen and Not Thirteen Lost Their
Lives in Colorado.
CENTRAL CITY, Colo. Aug. 3d.
Little has been done in regard to the
mine disaster. Both the Americus and
Sleepy Hollow mines are filled with
water within 400 feet of the surface,
and it is steadily rising. notwithstand-
ing the fact 5000 gallons per hour is
being taken out, with 500-gallon
bucket. 1t is believed that pump
will have to be put in before any head
way can be made. 1T is new known
that fourteen lives were lost.
The accident is the result of a dis
pute between the owners of the two
mines and others adjoining regarding
the expense of drainage. The Fisk,
Bob Tail and Gregory have been
abandoned on account of the accumu-
lated water, and the breaking of par
tition wall precipitated the water in
to Sleepy Hollow and Americus.
The state metaliferous mine inspec-
tor today notified the owners of the
last-named properties that their mines
must be at once drained, regardless of
the dispute, so the bodies of the
drowned miners may be reached,
With the present facilities this will
take from five to six weeks.

Manitoba's New Governor.

MONTREAL, Aug. 30.-The anthem
tic statement that Hon. James J. Pat
terson, minister without portfolio, will
be sworn in on Monday as lieutenant
governor of Manitoba, is creating
great excitement here, especially
among the French Canadians. The
term of office of DR.. Schultz is finished,
but it was generally supposed that in
return for turning out the members OF
the liberal local government he would
get second term. It now appears
that Schultz has refused to do this,
and that for these reasons Patterson
has received the appointment. and will
be expected to chastise Greenway and
his cabinet if they refuse to come to
terms on the school question.

Holmes says he did not murder the

that Hatch murdered him, as he did

that when the time comes, and he is

NEW YORK, Aug. 31.-The World
will print tomorrow the following
cablegram from Foo Chow, China:
The commission of inquiry into the
Hwang Wa massacre, sitting at Kp
Cheng, progresses slowly. Over 100
arrests have been made. There have
been II capital convictions. The vice.
roy retards the work, refusing to give
the perfect discretion. There is de-
lay over each question referred to the
viceroy. The Intention is to exhaust
the patience of the commission: At
the present rate the trials will require
a year. The imperial edict issued
commanding severe measures is mere
blind.
Rioters at Hok Chang attacked the
Christians and wounded four and de-
stroyed their houses.
The dangerous situation is the fault
of the magistrate who issued procla-
nation slandering the Christians. I'm
less America can be induced to take
vigorous measures, it is feared that
there will be general rioting. British
weakness encourages the Chinese, The

Much CONSERVATION.
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. IAN earth
quake lasting several seconds was felt
at 6 o'clock this morning. The dis
turbance was violent enough, while it
lasted, to create good deal of conster-
nation and not little damage. Build
ings perceptibly swayed, windows
clattered and banged, and clocks and
pictures toppled from their places.
The shock was most severely felt in
the suburban districts, and it is said
that in one part of Georges hill in
Fairmount park, fissure was opened,
permitting the entrance of plummet,
which extended down over 100 feet
without touching bottom. A large
plate-glass window in the store of
Michael Lett, on Germantown avenue,
was split from top to bottom. Similar
cases are reported from other sections
of the city.

better condition than in any previous
year. Recent rains have benefited the
beets greatly. With continued favor.
able conditions for roots, the results
OF the harvest will exceed other sea-
sons, and will probably be more than
10000 tons, which would mean an out
put of some 100000 pounds of gran

100 days and nights. The advantages
OF beet culture we're clearly demon.
