PREBLE'S HARD LUCK.
The Orange Order Worse Than The
Blue Church.

Roston. Nov. 30. - The Waltham
Expanding" case, in which the officers OF
an Orange lodge are charged with as
sault upon a candidate for membership
was on trial before Judge Hardy in the
superior court at Cambridge today.
Frank A. Preble is the complainant
and Iohn G, Graham, George E. Nick
erson, Edward O'Neil, Daniel Tracey
and Leander Weatherbee, the defend
ants. The court room was crowded.
Preble was the only witness for the
prosecution and gave graphic story
of his initiation. He claimed that he
was cruelty used; that he was fagei-
lated on the bare legs, was "stuck with
pins or an ice pick" was compelled to
carry heavy bag OF stones and from
stepladder which he was forced 10
mount he fell into blanket, was tossed
in II. and then was branded with a red
hot iron on his left breast. He claimed
that he was severely burned and other
wise injured.
He stated in court that he had taken
an obligation not to divuIge the secrets
of the order, but this was before the
tossing in the blanket and the burning
and he did not consider these secrets OF
the order. Preble said he was mem

BRYAN REVIEWS TIE FIGHT
Has an Article in the North
American Review.
Say~ihe Money Question Was THE
Greafest Ever Submitted in Time
of rear+-'- Declares the Cause Of
EimetaIi> VIII Finally Triumph.

New York. Nov 3o-In the Decem
Der number Of The North American Re
view published tomorrow. Mr.. Bryan
presents an article in which he dis
cusses the result of the election as af
feciing the status of the silver question.
The issue of which election he describes
as THE greatest issue ever submitted TO
the American people in time of peace"
Tn result OF the study by the people of
the money question. he declares, has re-
suited in temporary defeat for his party,
but permanent gain for the cause of BIZ
metalism.
Mr.. Bryan regards it as a significant
fat that the silver sentiment was
strongest where the question had been
longest considered, that is TO say, in the
west and south. The gold sentiment
prevailed in the eastern states, but even
tn ere, in Mr.. Bryan's o. inion, the cause
of bimeialism made more rapid progress
than any cause ever made in such
short time. The odds against b.metal
ism in the middle states were very
great. In Wisconsin and Minnesota the
democratic party declared against silver
in conventions which sent delegations
10 Chicago. In Michigan the conven-
ton was nearl, equally divided, and
there was a bitter contest within the
party in Iowa, Indiana and Ohio, while
:. 49, tot nf .
Chicago press was greatly felt. Mr..
Bryan expresses his assurance that the
election can be by no means regarded as
a conclusive settlement of the questions
at issue.
This confidence IS confirmed by the
history of recent elections. Mr.. Gree
lev was defeated in 1872, and yet Mr..
Tilden was elected in 1876. Mr.. Blaine
as defeated in 1854. but Mr.. Harrison
was elected in 1888. The republican
victory of 1888 was followed by the
democratic victory of 1890, and the
electi Il of President Cleveland two
ears later.
Mr.. Bryan counsels the republican
party to remember that thousands of
republicans have been held to their
party this year by the. pledge that they
will try to secure international bimet-
alism. In regard to the gold standard
democrats, Mr.. Bryan is assured that
they cannot do as much harm in 1890
as thew have done this year.
They cannot" he says, E"disguise
themselves again. The contest for n
nancial independence will go on. We
undertook the contest with disorgan-
lied army; we emerged from it united
and disciplined force without the loss OF
soldier. We are ready for another
contest. We believe that we are right,
and believing that right will finally tri-
umph, we face the future firm in the
belief that bimetalism will be restored"

Chippewa Falls, Wis, Nov. 3o.-An
ice gorge has formed in the Chippewa
river near Dalles and water is backing
steadily into town. From height OF
ten feet it rose to fifteen and ore-halt
in two hours today. Residents in the
lower portion of the city are moving
their stock and household effects TO
more protected grounds. The Their
mometer registers : degrees below zero.
St. Paul, Nov. 3o.-The Pioneer Press
special from Eau Claire, Wis, says: An
ice gorge formed at the mouth of the
mouth of the Chippewa, which caused
the water to back up rapidly Saturday
night and Sunday morning. On the
lowIands below Durand the rise was so
rapid that many families had to flee IN
their night robes to places OF safety ana
leave their all behind them. Suffering
among the woman and children was in
tense, and many are reported us having
frozen feet and limbs. Those who could
fled to the railroad track.
There they built fire and tried to
protect themselves from the frosty
winds until help arrived. An engineer
ar sent from Durand yesterday morn
ing gathered up about forty or fifty OF
1hose unfortunatues, but so fast did the
water rise that the train had to go back
to Durand. 1t is thought that some OF
the people were not reached by he res
cuers and possibly may have persisted.
The bottoms are all under water, and
the stock and produce are a complete
loss. Dead domestic animals can be
seen all about the neighborhood, frozen
Stiff in the water. In most OF the homes
were stored the winter supplies, and
these were all lost.
Tonight farms and farm buildings
along six miles of the Chippewa valley
are under water. The flood is being
added to hourly at the rate of six inches
and before morning, unless the gorge
breaks. this cit, will be partly under
water. At O'Clock tonight Easements
of all buildings on Spring street ar;
flooded and in some instances the
lower floors are covered. The people
occupving business houses in the lower
part of the city are hastily removing
their personal effects to higher ground.
In 1894 a similar food occurred, caus-
ing loss of many thousands OF dollars
A great deal of railway property Is
settled and many highway and railway
bridges will probably be swept away.
Below the immense gorge the river is
practically dry and when the jam breaks
the body of water in the reservoir mnst
carry destruction to the valley below.
Eau Claire has every reason to feel
apprehensive, as its danger begins when
that of Chippewa Falls has passed. Be-
tween the hours of and 10 a. m. today
the water rose six feet. when there was
a temporary abatement AT g O'Clock
tonight there had been an average rise
during the day of six inches an hour
The gorge is FIVE miles long.
AT Irvine the Wisconsin Central rail-
road is under water and the electric
light plant partly flooded, SO that the
town is in darkness.

WILLIAM T. CARLETON.
Something About the Famous Baritone
and His Views ON Standard Opera.

No special introduction is needed for Mr..
William Il. Carleton. He is one Of the best
baritones on the operatic stage, and his
popularity Is co-extensive with his ability.
His success is due to his fine voice, his fine
stage presence and his artistic methods.
He made his debut when he was 21 years
of age at the Gaiety theater In London
when IL was under the management of
John Hollingsbead. Charles Santley was
the first baritone Of the company, and
Carleton was engaged for roles usually as
signed TO the second baritone. He remain
ed with HolliDgshead from 1870 TO 1878,
making several provincial tAurs with the
company during that time. His first ex-
perience in grand opera was in September,
1871, when he sang with Sims Reeves In
Lucia" at the Theater Royal in Birming-
ham.
Mr.. Carleton's first appearance in Amer
lea was in September, 1878. He came to
