son and Davis, and PETER OF Kansas, now
wants to meet the brave men OF the west
and ask them whether they won't stand
by southern populism In this its day or
peril
He believes that they Will. Ho believes
that no true popullst can prefer to vote
for a millionaire national banker and cor
porauon king, who represents nothing
they advocate.
He believes they will rally to the ticket
named al st. Louisa ticket which gives
Mr.. Bryan every populist vote, and which
at the same time, holds the peoples party
together.
German. the gold bug and protection
ist, Is controlling Bryans free silver cam
paign; and Sewall. the typical eastern
putocrat, Is Bryans running mate.
What does this mean? That II Sewall
remains on the ticket, and German con-
tinues TO pull the campaign wires, the
whole country will see clearly Nough
that Mr.. Pendeton of Georgia was right
when he said that he was going to sup
port the Chicago ticket, for the reason
that no free silver law would be passed
Another feature Of the campaign which
becomes every day more pronounced is
that Mr. Watson, and not Mr.. Sewall
is the choice Of the southern democrats

One of the most important worlds records,
the one mile competition, was broken.
The one mile national championship was
decided so far as the present programme
of the circuit is concerned. 1t was won
by Tom Cooper. Arthur Gardiner did the
recOrd-breaking in the mile open, paced
by John s. Johnson and J. W. Parsons,
the Australian champion, with thirteen
starters in the race. Gardiner rode the
mile in 2.0l, beating the record of 2.0l As.
established by Bald just a week ago at
Buffalo. He won by a phenomenal sprint
in the stretch, which he entered ten
lengths behind Sanger, who led the field.
Chairman Gideon stated afterWard that il
was the most rapid burst of speed that he
had ever seen or heard of. Cooper was
not entered in this race.
In the mile national championship
Cooper, who won, had the closest call Of
the year He beat Owen Kimble across
the tape only half the diameter of his
front wheel. Bald was third, a length be
hind kimble, the others being punched
behind. The first serious accident of the
meet occurred in the five mile state cham
pionship. j. c. Mitchell's chain broke and
he fell. Karl Thome, the Kentucky ono
mile champion, fell over him, and three
riders landed on Mitchell before he could
rise. The latter's collar bone was fraeL
tured in two places.

on the charge Of conduct unbecOnling
a member of the L.. A. W." Tinsdall was
sent to the New York legislature to secure
the passage of a bill requiring railroads to
carry bicycles as baggage, but instead of
supporting the bill, he offered an amend
ment to the interests favorable to the
railroads, for which 1t is alleged he re-
ceiVed considerable compensation.
The bill without the amendment, how
ever, was passed.

THE FIGHTING MAST.
One of the Most Dangerous Posts on
MRn-Of-War When in Battle.
From the New York Press.

From the New York Press.
In that coming naval battle between the
steel fleets of two frst-class powers, to
which nautical authorities have been look
ing forward ever since modern battleships
became the mighty engines of profile
NAUTICAL forces that they are, the military
mast and fighting top will play deadly
part, and be the station of danger and
heroism.
AS everybody knows, the old mast, the
mast of yards and sails, has vanished
from the modern ship of war. The New
ark is the only modern ship in the United
States navy which has sail carrying
masts. The place of the mast that was
erected for sail-carrying purposes is taken
on the modern warship by a steel tower,
which rises from the deck to support one,
or maybe three or four circular galleries,
where rapid fire or machine guns are plac-
ed which, in time of action, pour their
hail of bullets at the decks and ports OF
the hostile ship.
The object is to kill the gunners, for IL
is selfAevident that the most powerful
gun is powerless if its crew is dead. Take
the twenty raptd-hre guns distributed
along the superstructure of the Indiana.
From a fighting top such a storm of lead
could be driven upon these great guns as
would make it impossible for men to work
them Therefore, it will be one of the first
duties of a warship to shoot away with
its heavy guns the military mast of its
adversary.
AS one well-directed shot will send the
mast tumblng, it is not probable that
any ship will come out of an engagement
with its military mast standing. The
shooting away of the mast will, of course
mean the death of every man in the
fighting tops. Men sent there will know
as they climb the dark ladder to their
stations, that they go to almost certain
death, and will have only one duty be-
fore them, to kill as many of the enemy
as they can before the crash comes
Men who in turrets and sponsors be-
low, are handling the great guns, have
every hope of life and victory before
them, but the men in the tops go to their
duty with no such hopes and expecta-
TONS To man the fighting tops in ac-
ton will be kind of martyrdom especial
ly hard to endure.
To perform deeds of valor in the face
of contending armies, or to suffer with
fortftude in the gaze of admirng thous-
ands is one thing; to ciumb up calmly
inside a steel post and work away at
such an unpoetical mechanical device a
a rapid-fre or machine gun until such
time as it may please the enemy TO blow
one into kingdom come" is quite an
other thing
Yet the modern man-of-warsman is en-
thusiastic over the advantages of the mil
itary mast, and would obey an order to
man gun in the fighting top as readily
as he would the bugle call which sum
mons him to his meals.

An Invention to RevOIutIOnize News
paper work.

From the st. Louis Post-DIspatch.
Joseph Joachim Reifgraber, of 1118
Thirteenth street. has invented and pat
ented an apparatus that threatens to rev.

II all that the inventor claims for the
machine is realized, it will be possible for
a newspaper correspondent to sit at his
desk in st. Louis and write an article on
an Instrument, fashioned like typewriter,
and that article by an electrical device will
be reproduced simultaneously in as many
newspaper offices as are connected with
the transmitting wire. But this Is not all

NEARLY sMoTHERED TO DEATH.
Mrs. VI. L. Lambert and Six Children
Narrowly Escape Death.

Narrowly Escape DeuNh.
Fire broke out a few minutes after 2
O'Clock this morning in the second story
Of No. ISL Broughton street.
The building is a two-story frame build
ing. The first floor is occupied by NJ L.
Lambert's shoe store. The second hoor.
extending over Conida's branch confec-
tionery store. adjoining, is occupied by Mr..
Lambert and his family as living rooms.
Mr.. Lambert is in New York. His wife
and six children and a young lady were
asleep in two bed rooms over the shoe
store.
Mrs. Lambert was awakened by a sitting
smoke. She sprang out Of bed and arous-
ing her children. got them out OF the build
ing in a minute, but none too soon, for I'm
a moment more the dense smoke would
have suffocated them a second later
flames broke out in a closet where the fire
started.
Policeman Crimmins, who was patrol
ling Broughton street, turned in an alarm
from box No. IA. at Broughton and Whit
aker streets. The fremen ran a line OF
hose from a chemical engine into the
building, and the flames were quickly
extinguished. The fire had eaten its way
into the partitions Of the adjoining build
ing on the west, occupied by II. Wilens-
ky's shoe store, and later on a stream
of water was turned on.
The principal damage is to furniture
and clothing Very little was taken from
the rooms. Mrs. Lamberts first thought
was her children, and after they had
been gotten out the smoke was so dense
that it was impossible to go back.
The damage to the building is small.
The fire did not burn through the floor,
and neither Lambert's store nor Conida's
confectionery stock are believed to have
been injured.

hCs W III AhC II ubAOh ACT IN
States Where other Parties Failed.
Indianapolis, Ind, Aug. Alt is not at
all unlikely that a combination ticket will
be put in the field by the republicans, ma
tional democrats and popuIists in some Of
the southern states. The executive COM
mittee of the national democracy is in re-
ceipt of propositions looking to this end
from Alabama, Texas and Florida, and is
very much inclined to look upon them with
favor.
The leaders of these three parties in the
south have not yet discussed matters Of
detail in the proposed fusion, but It is
probable that If 1t is carried out they will
fuse on the state tickets as nearly as pos
sible in proportion to the strength that
each one possesses. and that electoral tick
cts will be made OF men pledged to vote
against Bryan and Sewall.
In all three of the states men toned the
populists have declined to enter into fu-
sion with the democrats.

on Foot for Haynes Benefit.
Atlanta. Ga, Aug. 14.-It is whispered
here tonight that a conspiracy formed
by Arthur Hayne, who is under sentence
to be hanged on Friday next, and other
prisoners in the Fulton county Jail to
effect their escape, has been discovered.
After exhaustive investigation, the
Morning News correspondent has been
unable to secure any definite informa-
ton. 1t is certain, however, that some
thing of a sensational nature has oc-
CURED at the jail
When asked If there had been a con-
spiracy between Hayne and other pris-
oners to break jail, Sheriff Barnes adj
mitted tonight that Haynes cell had
been found unlocked when 1t should have
been locked, and that he had since
chained the doomed prisoner to the floor
Sheriff Barnes admitted these facts
with apparent reluctance, and the turn
key of the Jail refused altogether to give
out any information.
