Speaking against intemperance lately at
Montreal, Rev. Father Gaffre OF that city
gave the following powerful description OF
three classes OF drunkards. "Slavery has
been abolished In this free land Of America,
and yet the army of slaves Is still innumera-
BILE. It Is the army Of drunkards kept In
greater durance than were ever the slaves
OF ancient Greece and Rome. Where Is the
liberty and will OF the drunken man? He
has left 1t at the bottom Of the glass on the
counter Of saloon.
''Here Is a man who has always been re-
spected, but he meets with friends, takes the
fatal cup, and moment after becomes the
laughing stock of. tho crowd on the street;
he has been turned into an ape.
Another has always been noted for his
mild disposition, but also is imprudent
enough to indulge In strong drinks, and un.
der their influence he becomes cross and
angry; he Is turned into bear.
~ third has always been kind husband
and an exemplary father, but alas! ne Is
also induced to taste the fiery fluid, and its
effects is to unite the tongue, which then
speaks naught but filth ard pollution: ne
has become-well, the name cannot be NEIL
toned"

Especial to The Herald.)
WASHINGTON, Sept. 2O.-It is be-
lieved that Senator Dubois succeeded
in his mission to Washington and that
the combination formed against him
in Idaho will be broken.
At any rate, Senators Teller, Dubois
and German at their conference with
Chairman Jones, of the national Demo-
cratic committee, impressed the latter
with the necessity of placating the free
silver Republicans of Idaho. Mr.. Jones
at first demurred and protested that
the national committee ought not to
interfere with the affairs of the Idaho
state committee; but Senators Dubois
and Teller threatened to withdraw from
their support of the Bryan and Sewall
ticket Mr.. Teller said he would imme-
diately cancel his campaign engage
ments if injustice were done to the free
silver Republicans who are supporting
Bryan. After the conference was con-
cluded, Senator Teller left for Ken
lucky, where ne is to make several
speeches, and Senator Dubois left for
the west in a happy frame of mind, to
take charge of the free silver cam
paign on the Pacific coast, as one of
Senator Jones lieutenants. From this
cratic committee will do everything TO
accomplish a fusion with the free sill
yer Republicans

BOUNTIFUL, Sept. 19.-The cold
heavy east wind which has been sweep
ing over Salt Lake valley for the last
twenty hours has wrought great injury
to some Of our fruit orchards and other
trees Nearly all of the fruit has been
blown to the ground and many of the
trees robbed of their verdure. thus
&ieopardizing the next years fruit crop
because the buds are well nigh formed.
Many OF the best young fruit trees,
also large shade trees have been
thrown to the ground by the raging
element and scarcely i. hay stack
which was built broadside TO the east
has escaped being overtoppled.
rs the wind is from the east we take
1t that it is a ''goldbug'' wind which is
raging furiously there. We hope, how
ever, that it will have spent Its
strength before November.

manager of Jimmy Michaels, the
Welsh yvheelman offering to match w.
W. Hamilton. of Denver, against the
English champion in a race for one
hour, the contest to be brought off at

ATHENS, O., Sept. 2O.-General Gros-
venor tonight gave out table of esti-
mates of the probable results of the
presidential election at the request of
certain members of che press in the
east:
He said:
Il have been urged, for several weeks,
to authorize the publication of table
of estimates of the presidential cleo
ton, and 1 have hesitated to do so,
because there was more or less uncer-
tainty in regard to the result; not that
there has ever been any uncertainty
or doubt in the intelligent mind as to
who would be elected, but following
the st. Louis convention and the nomi-
nation of Bryan and Sewal by one
faction of the Democratic party and the
substantial absorption of the Populist
party, which succeeded that event,
there was some uncertainty as to how
a number of the states would finally
go, and this condition OF uncertainty
has not yet entirely disappeared, but
the general drift of political events
has reached point where 1 think I
need not hesitate to point out, substan-
tally, how the several states will go.
The six New England states, with 80
electoral votes, will so to Mckinley,
so. head NV table as follows.

ROCK SPRINGS. wyo.. Sept. pa
cloudburst up in the canyon. a couple of
miles southeast of town. this afternoon,
flooded the town three or four feet and
run over the floors in the First National
bank and seven or eight of the leading
business houses, filing all cellars and
completely covering the Union Pacific
tracks.
The rush of the water down through
town was SO sudden that no time was
left for getting merchandise out of the
cellars. Tim Kinney & Co.'s large double
two-story business house is undermined
by the water and is in danger of col
lapsing at any time. The damage, it is
thought, will be $4,000. No lives were
lost. Fully two feet of hail fell during
the storm.

KAYsvILLE, Utah, Sept. blast
nights storm was the most furious
storm that has been experienced in
this locality for years. Some old
settlers are asserting that not since
November ?, 1855. has such a wind
feen known. All through Davis county
1t swept down from the mountains on
the east and tore across the valley
with relentless fury, carrying with it
everything movable. Hundreds of
tons Of hay have been scattered in a
manner that will make it impossible
tc regather it. Straw stacks and hay
stacks were RACED almost to the ground
and hay and iucerne seed that was in
the fields ready for hauling was rolled
and 1umbled about until it will be
worthless
A mile south Of this place at a ranch
owned by White & Sons of Salt Lake,
Il is estimated that one hundred tons
OF hay was torn from the stacks and
scattered broadcast over the field, and
there is scarcely a farmer within miles
81 here but has been heavy loser.
The fall fruit crop is destroyed. In
places where no shelter was afforded
TO orchards the trees were stripped Of
fruit and foliage and they present a
barren appearance. The amount CT
damage cannot be estimated.
Some few houses and small buildings
Were unrooofed. and innumerable shade
trees were torn up by the roots, and
are lying across the paths in such
numbers as TO make walking along the
sidewalks unpleasant.
Ont at Syracuse a lumber tower
nearly seventy feet high, built by the
United States gecdetic surveying party
was blown down and smashed.
The wind commenced early yesterday
morning and gradually increased in
fury until O'Clock this morning. Since
which hour it has been gradually sub
siding.

LEADVILLE, Colo, Sept. A.-Short
ly after midnight several heavy explo.
sions occurred at the Coronado mine
The explosions We're followed by many
rifle shots from the vicinity of the
barricade surrounding the mine, which
are thought to have been fired by an at
tacking force to cover the retreat of dy-
namiters in an attempt upon the works
The shooting lasted about tenninutes
and has since been followed by desul-
tory firing.
A telephone message received from
the mine after the first explosions stat
ed that nobody inside the barricade had
been hurt. After receiving this mes
skye communication with the mine
was interrupted and has not yet been
restored.
Another explosion, presumably of dy-
Mantle, was heard after the break &C.
Cured in the telephone connection,
which was followed by a bright blaze
in the vicinity of the mine. The fire
department and the local militia were
called out and hurried to the scene of
the fire and the besieged miners. They
found the works at the mine in blaze
and when they attempted to lurn on
the water to fight the flames were or
dered to desist by the attacking par
ty. Finally they succeeded in getting
connection with other hydrants and
turning a stream on the flames. Hard
ly had this occurred when a series of
explosions were heard in the direction
of the Emmett and Marion mines and
it is supposed that an attack has been
made upon these workings.
SEVERAL HURT.
A later report from the Coronado
mine states that Fireman Oeefe was
fatally shot while attempting to turn

men are dead.
Many rumors are rife, one being that
every building at the Coronado had
been burned Another states that John
Mahony, who worksat the Big -Four
while on his way from the mine near
the Emmett mine, was shot in the
stomach and is believed to- be dead.
Another man had all his clothing torn
from his body, but escaped with his life.
The miners were organized recently
by the Western Federation of Mines,
and almost every mine worker was in
the union when the demands were
made. The miners ask So Il day for
all classes of workmen including sur
face and underground men The en-
ployers declared at the beginning of
the trouble that they were willing to
continue paying the wages that had
prevailed in Leadville to the time of the
strike.

VERY SAD APPEARANCE

numerous to mention sustained serl-
Gus damage in many ways.
Logan makes a
VERY SAD APPEARANCE
this morning. Her streets are strewn
with limbs, fences crushed by the
fallen trees, broken glass, doors blown
IN, roofless buildings, trees stripped or
their fruit and many of their leaves.
1t is estimated that the beautiful city
of Logan is deprecated in its appear
ance % per cent through the storm.
Logan spent sleepless night: The
roar of the wind, the continuous
crashes caused by falling trees, and
the rafting of tin roofs made the
night hideous
Other parts of the county likewise
suffered.
AT Richmond a new brick school
house was blown down, making a
total wreck. The loss is estimated at
$4,000. In other respects Richmond
shared the same fate with Logan.
Smithfield received the full force CT
the storm, and sustained great dam
age.
Lewiston was damaged some. but
not so seriously as many other places
Hyde Park had barns overturned,
trees blown down, etc.
Providence also got a great shaking
greatly.
Millville was struck very heavy. The
Pacific Mills company at that place
was unroofed Three large frame
barns belonging to Jessup, Carr d
Norman, were destroye6; haystacks,
trees, and fences also suffered.
Very little damage was done at
Hyrum.
Strange as it may appear. quite a
number of our settlements escaped.
Wellsville, Paradise, Mendon and
Peterboro, had no wind to speak of,
and Charleston and Newton had
strong wind. but net sufficient to do
any damage.
Great damage has been done to the
seed crop of lucerne Severe as the
storm has been and the damage done,
we feel very thankful that no lives
have been lost or serious accidents
occurred.
A photograph car was blown from
the track between Franklin and Rich
mond.
