NIAGARA H~ARNESSED.
The Cataract Company Now Sending
Out Electricity For CONNER
cial Use.

NIAGARA FALLS, August 2s.-After
almost five years of work and the ex-
penditure of over SO, o 900, Niagara
has been harnessed, and the power
generated by the monster 5000 horse
power dynamo of the Cataract Con-
struction Company are now sending
out the electricity for commercial use.
The first power was delivered to the
Pittsburg Reduction Company here at
1880 O'Clock this morning when dyna-
mono. 2 in Reconstruction Company's
power house was set in motion. AT
the Reduction Company's works there
were about a dozen men at work, and
the pots used in the making of alumni
mum are being tested by them.
A much larger force will be en-
ployed tomorrow, when the real
work begins. The power from the
power house is sent over copper cables
laid in a conduit to the aluminium
works. The current sent out is an
alternating one, and before it al be
used in the making of aluminium it
must be transformed to a direct cur
rent. This is done by passing through
four of the largest rotary transformers
ever built. These as 1000 horse power
each, and three of them are running.
Everything was found to work per-
fectly, and great satisfaction was ex-
pressed by the officers.

HEARNES IN PRISON.
The Doctor Talks Freely, but His Wife
Has Nothing to Say.

HANNIBAL, Mo-, Aug. 3O.-Sinee DIR.
Hearne and his wife have been con-
fined in the Palmyra jail, from % to
100 persons visit the Jail daily to see
the prisoners, and Sheriff Pratt and
his tw, deputies r kept busy lock-
ing and unlocking the doors. Mrs.
Hearne declines to be seen by anyone,
and visitors are not taken upstairs,
where the women's department is
located. The cell in which she is con-
fined is small, poorly lighted and ven
tilated. 1t opens into another cell in
the rear, which is quite dark, and
when she hears anyone coming up
stairs she quickly retires into the back
cell to avoid being She spends
her time in reading newspapers and
doing fancy needle work, and has
nothing to say to anyone but her cell
mate, Mrs. Todd, with whom she
communicates quite freely. Mrs.
Hearne displays remarkable nerve,
and even Mrs. Todd stoutly AYERS
that she has never seen her display
the slightest emotion or heard her
make any complaint at her confine-
ment.
DIR. Hearne, on the other hand, is
showing considerable restlessness and
confinement has become quite irk-
some to him. He has partially adapt
ed himself to his surroundings, how
ever, and mingles freely with the
other prisoners, laughing, joking and
playing cards with them. When he
hears the key turn in the jail door he
is the first at the cage to meet visitors

Let Us Stand Together.

iASAA ~ a. NHhcsi
True, real bimetallists stand on the
Democratic platform for the coinage
of both gold and silver at such ratio
that will make both kinds of dollars
of equal intrinsic value and purchas-
ing power. The two extremes, the
gold men on one side and the Is to l
men on the other, are trying to pull
the party off its ime-honored plat
forms, but pulling in opposite direc-
tions. So between the two pulls there
is danger of rending the party, yes,
great danger.
They have pulled in Nebraska until
the party is divided there. In Ken
lucky there is great danger of a split.
Let us in Missouri not initiate these
bad examples.
Why should we divide up and turn
this State over to the Republicans?
Let us remember what occurred when
they were in power twenty-five and
thirty years ago, and then cease our
silly practice of hurting epithets and
breathing out defiance and threaten
ing at each other.
The only hope of good Government
is in the Democratic party. The only
hope of silver coinage is in the same
party. If we quarrel and split up we
invite certain defeat. We a argue
like men until the national conven-
ton, then those defeated can submit
like men and true Democrats.

HERMIT LOVED LIFE.
Cost Him $4,000 to Live Forty Days
Over the Limit.

OAKLAND, CAL, Aug. pa pecu-
liar contest over the will of Morris
Goldberg, a capitalist who led a her
mit's life in the hills of West Oakland,
has been abandoned. Goldberg be-
came afflicted with a throat disease.
As his condition became more serious,
the old mans desire to live became
more intense, and he offered his ply
sicians s225 for every day they should
keep him alive. A tube was inserted
in Goldberg's stomach through which
nourishment was forced, and by this
means he was kept alive forty days,
mourning a DOCTORS bill in the mean
time of $1,000. When his will was filed
for probate in which an estate valued
at $500, 900 was disposed of, Miss Cutie
Simson, a niece, of Philadelphia, filed
protest. Miss Simson has at last
consented to compromise the case for
$1,000, an will return 10 Philadelphia
in a few days.

A FIENDISH
A Six-Year-0ld Girl Assaulted at Sc

SEDALIA, Mo-, Aug. 30.-This city
was thrown into excitement to-day
by a brutal assault upon Isabelle, the
6-year-old daughter of Frederick
Teubner, a grocer of this city, by "a
fiend who gave his name as Jas.
Greene. The little girls screams par
TALLY thwarted the brute's purpose,
and he fled. Fifty armed men were
soon on his trail, and after a chase of
half q mile he was captured. The
father made several Intellectual at
tempts to shoot Green, but was finally
disarmed by an officer. Greene, who
is a laborer, married and 2s years old,
was hurried away from a threatening
crowd, placed in a carriage and landed
in Jail. There is much excitement on
the streets tonight, but the officers
do not think ar attempt at lynching
will be made.

Rather a Hard Question.

From the Montgomery County Leader.
Here is one question we would like
for brother Pool, of the Centralia
Courier, to answer. The commercial
value of the silver now in a silver dol
lar is 66A cents. If the government
has a right to take this 6624 cts. worth
of silver and stamp it 81 for silver
mine owners, why has it not the right
to take a bushel of wheat our Mont
gomery county farmers have raised
and say it shall be worth 81?

The horrible news comes from Col.

that a young man climbed a corn stalk
last Monday to Q how the ears were
getting along, and now the corn is
growing up faster than he can climb
down. Three men have undertaken
to cut down the stalk, but owing to
its rapid growth it is feared they will
not succeed in time to prevent the
young mans death from starvation.
He is subsisting on the raw corn, and
has already thrown down four BUSH
els Of cobs and it is now thought that
his supply is almost exhausted. Col.
Norton says he has never before raised

NO RED FLAG IN THE PARADE.
Chicago Anarchists Plainly Warned
by Mayor Swift.

CHICAGO, August 29.-Considerable
comment was created here last night
when il was announced that rabid So
cialists, who have long been quiet,
had prepared a red flag and proposed
carrying it in the parade in honor OF
James Keir Hardie, the English Social
list labor leader, Sunday.
This was the first time that the prob
lem of dealing with the deciples of the
red flag had come before Mayor Swift,
and there was more or less anxiety to
know whether he would deal firmly
with the reds or would ignore them as
his predecessor Mayor Harrison, had
done until after the Haymarket riot,
In which many policemen were killed.
The Sunday demonstration was
projected by the Socialistic Labor par
ty for the purpose of opening the fall
campaign for the elections to the
drainage board.
Inspector Fitzpatrick, in speaking OF
the matter, said: "The Socialists will
not be allowed to unfurl any purely
red flag on the streets and / doubt if
they will be allowed to unfurl it at the
grounds. The Socialists have not ap-
Piled for a permit to march, and with
out such authority from the city they
could not march at all. II they apply
for a permit the red flag business will
be settled then and there. The exact
attitude of the police, however, will
have to be governed by the instruc-
tions of the Mayor and Chief"
This morning Mayor Swift settled
all doubt as to his position by issuing
positive orders forbidding the carry
ing OF the red flag through the streets.
He also sent for Oscar Neebe and
Michael Schwab, the pardoned An
archists, and other Socialist leaders
and warned them against making or
allowing any demonstration of any
kind.
