AND now President Cleveland has
done another grand good thing.
His corpulency has threatened several
postmasters in Missouri who are un-
compromising free silver men, that if
they don't change their views on that
question they will lose their positions.
Cleveland, it will be remembered, was
elected on free silver platform. He
is now threatening to behead men for
advocating something to which be
owes his eletion. But such is democ-
racY.

DEAR voter, do you believe it is right
for this government to loan money to
a banking corporation at l per cent
which is allowed to extort interest
from you at any rate per cent it choos-
es to name by loaning you this same
money. For our part we think it is an
outrage on justice and direct disregard
for the principle that all men are Great
ed free and equal.

JUSTICE Brown is getting to be quite
an anarchist lately. He advocates an
enlargement of the functions of govern
ment, even being rank enough to favor
government ownership of public utiI-
tiles. 1t is needless to say that Brown
is in the minority when great questions
of public importance come before the
court.

HOLMES FEARS HANGING.
Makes What is Considered an Ad-
mission of Guilt in the
Pietzel Case.

Philadelphia, Pa, July 17.-H. H.
Holmes, alias Herman Mudgetts, has
virtually confessed to the murder of the
two Pietzel children, whose bodies were
found in the cellar of Toronto house.
1t was secured at the office of the dis
trict attorney during a two-hours' inter-
view Holmes had yesterday with three
members of the district attorneys staff.
Il suppose I'll swing for this This
is the only remark dropped from Holmes
lips which in any way tended to incrimi-
nate him, but the district attorney says
this is practical admission of Holmes
guilt Notwithstanding Holmes remark
his counsel says he can prove an alibi
in his clients case. He says that Holmes
was not in Toronto when the Pietzel chill
dren were murdered. This, he says, can
be proven by Mrs. Howard, Holmes
third wife, who is at present living with
her mother in Franklin, Ind.
The authorities put but little confidence
in the alibi story and are satisfied
Holmes is the murderer.

EX-PREMIER WAYLAID.
Stambuloff Of Bulgaria Attacked by
Ruffians on a Street in
Sofia,

Sofia. Bulgaria, July 16.-Stambuloff,
ex-premier of Bulgaria, was returning
home last evening from the Union club,
accompanied by a colleague, NJ. Petchof,
when they were attacked by four persons
armed with revolvers and knives. SIAM
buIoff received several wounds in the
head, and lost quantity of blood. His
condition is serious.
The assailants attacked the carriage,
compelling the coachman to stop. NJ.
Stambuloff'S servant fired his revolver,
but missed the mark. NJ. StambuloR
Jumped out and Immediately received
cut which almost severed his hand from
the wrist. He then tried to escape, but
was followed and stabbed in the head and
received a revolver shot, when he fell to
the ground, where his assailants contin-
ued their stabs, badly wounding his other
hand
There is great Indignation felt in the
city. The attack was made on q fire.
Quented street. 1t is generally remarked
now that the last number of the govern
ment newspaper organ, Mir, violently
attacked M. Stambuloff, accusing him of
being a foreign spy. The outrage is be-
lieved to be the personal vengeance of
persons who suffered during his regime as
premier.
At 1 .. m. Stambouloff was still alive
but his condition was pronounced to be
hopeless. He has fifteen sword cuts on
his head and one of his eyes has been de
stroyed.
Although the attempt to murder him
was made on a busy street, no one came
to his assistance. Everyone seems to be
convinced that the police were in the plot
to assassinate the ex-premier, as five
members of the police force who were
near him when he was attacked made no
the Stambouloff servants chased one of
the assassins, but the man was stopped
by the police. M. Stambouloffs coach
man, who fired his revolver but missed
hitting anybody when the ex-premier's'
assailants attacked the carriage last
night, is also believed to have been one
of those who plotted against the states
mans life, as he made no attempt to
whip up his horses when the attack was
made

TWO NEW DEPoTs.
Northwestern Road Planning Improve
ments at Green Bay.

Green Bay, Wis, July 16.-[Special.]-
The statement is made with apparent au-
thority that it is the purpose of the Chi
cago & Northwestern railway to build
a depot on the east side of the river and a
new union dbeP Pot On tne West sae IN
& Western road. The further statement
is made that the company will build a
line from this city to Depere on the east
side of the river, the purpose probably
being to forestall the operations of the
Valley terminal road. The fact that the
orth-Western and Kewaunee companies
are asking for various franchises on
streets of the city gives color to the state
ment that it is the intention of the North
Western to practically form a belt line
around the city and carry out the further
improvements mentioned.

ILLINOIS CROP BULLETIN.
Last Week Was, on the Whole, Very Fa-
vOrable.

Chicago, ILL.,, July 16.-The Illinois
weeklyt crop bulletin issued today says:
1.-THE Northern counties have been the
least favored again during the past week.
With the exception of the scattered thun,
der showers of Sunday they were without
rain The state as a whole, however,
had very favorable week. with tempera>
lures about normal, except in north coun>
ties on Friday, Saturday and Sunday,
when the heat was excessive. Crops are
generally improved and corn especially is
doing finely. Many fields are in tassel
and some few show the silk. Damage
by chinch bugs has been less owing to
the destruction of them by the heavy
rains of the first of last week and also
due to their death by disease. The har-
vest and haying are. being completed,
with oats proving slightly better than
anticipated, especially in central and
northern counties. Wheat and rye
threshing continues from the shock with
the previous light estimates confirmed"
Des Moines, Ia, July 16-The Iowa
weekly weather crop bulletin, issued
today, says that the copious showers of
Sunday afforded substantial relief in
many localities, from which later reports
have been received, and it is believed
that the larger part of the state received
some measure of benefit from the timely

IN THE EARTH'S CENTER.
Shafts that Have Been Sunk to Depths Al

shafts that Have Been Sunk TO GepChS Al
most Incredible.
Few Of us could tell, off hand how far
into the earth man has penetrated. Sto-
ries of some of the depths attained seem
almost incredible, yet these are facts:
The deepest mining shaft in the world
is located at Prilzilram. Bohemia. 1t is
. lead mine, and 1000 feet deep, or over
three-quarters of mile. Think of it!
The deepest mine in the world is near
Tourney, Belgium, it is 1912 feet in
depth, but unlike the lead mine, it is
not perpendicular. The deepest hole ever
bored into the earth is the artesian well
at Potsdam, which is $500 feet in depth.
The deepest coal mines in England are
the Dunkirk collieries Of Lancashire,
which are 1924 feet in depth. The
deepest coal shaft in the United States is
located at Pottsville, Penn. Several
years ago it had reached a depth of 1867
feet. The deepest silver mine in the
United States is the Yellow Jacket, one
of the great Comstock system 1T Virginia
City, New. the lower levels are 2700 feet
below the hosting works.

LYNCHED THE RUSTLERS.
Little Doubt of the Fate of the Montana
Cattle Thieves.

Omaha, Neb., July 16.-A special from
Butte says that there is general be-
lief here that the rustlers captured by
the vigilantes Sunday have been lynched.
Vigilantes had been after the rustlers
some time and found them in camp in the
stockade at Fair and all ready to protect
their stolen property. The fort was
ing the futility of resistance, surrendered
to the vigilantes. They were quickly
disaEned, bound hand and foot and placed
on their horses and started west, presum,
ably for Keyapaha county. Nearly 100
head of cattle were found. But few here
think the rustlers will reach Spring View,
as the vigilantes are old farmers and
seldom bring a rustler back when they
have a good chance to make way with

Killing by Drink.

In a letter to '"The London Times"
Bishop Tugwell of Western Equatorial
Africa, says that the natives are killing
themselves with drink furnished to them
by the Christian merchants Of Europe
in return for the native commodities. On

was told that the whole town was drunk,
