and the strictly military branch; to droD
the titles which they hold, and which are
descriptive Of their duties, ana assume
other titles which describe the duties of
another claeu Of officers. Imagine further
that these anne officers are also seeking
the removal Of the demands and ~restric-
tons Of naval discipline as applied to
themselves. Let these officers use every
effort to influence puhiic opinion and Con
gressional action in their favor ana

AWFUL CASUALTY ON THE
RAMSHORN.
MATT MAGUIRE AND JACOB HENkE
THE VICTIMS.
While Thawlng Out Giant Powder They
Meet With Their Fate fragments of
The Bodies Blown in Every Direc-
tiOn-The Result of the Coroner's
Inquest.

Matt Mcguire and Jacob Henke
were instantly killed by an explosion
of giant powder last Friday afternoon.
The Madisonian mine on the Rams
horn. two miles above the Glendale
company's property, was the scene of
the awful catastrophe. The men were
literally blown to atoms.
The explosion occurred in the shaft
house of the mine where the men were
supposed to have been thawing out
giant powder, The property was be-
ing worked by the two unfortunates
and John Klitzki. Kitzki was in the
bottom Of the shaft preparing the drill
holes for the blasts. Mcguire and
Henke had gone to the surface to thaw
out the powder. After an interval of
10 or Is minutes, Klitzki heard a ter
rife report, and few seconds later a
heavy timber came crashing down the
shaft, missing him narrowly. The
shaft is an incline and divided into two
departments, one for the ore bucket and
one as ladder-way. Klitzki lost no
time in starting for the surface. The
mouth of the shaft was enveloped in
smoke. About 30 feet from the surface
he found the mangled body of Mcguire,
which had been blown into the shaft
and lodged on a projecting timber.
The rounds on the ladder-way were
dripping with the blood of the dead
man. On arriving at the top he found
the shaft house in ruins, and in the
midst of the debris lay the remains of
Henke, mutilated beyond recognition.
Through the empty eye-sockets oozed
the brains of the unfortunate man.
His right arm was blown off above and
his left below the elbow Fragments
of charred and blackened flesh were
strewn in all directions.
Klitzki is nervy man but the sick
ening sight was too much for him. He
left at once for Sheridan, on foot. It
was nearly dark by this time and he
could mrke but little headway through
the heavy snow. Late at night he ar
rived at BOwker's cabin, where he
passed the remainder of the night.
