about zoo men, moved southwark, fight
ing hard all the way throughout tho
night. and eventually reached Wax
vontein, six miles from Johannesburg,
on Thursday morning, when the col
umn was surrounded by a force Of 4,SOO
Beers. In spite OF this, Dr. Jameson >
followers fought stubbOrnly until noon,
when all their cartridges were exhaust

with fatigue. But the white flag was
not hOis.ed by DR.. James0n's orders.

London. January 6.-Delayed dis
patches from johannesburg are aTTiv-
ing here to-day. They show that Oh
Tuesday last there was intense excite
ment there, the people hurrying into
the town from the mines and outlying
country. The central committeeman
constituted them a provincial govern
ment for the town, and announced that
ample provision would be made TO de-
fend it against any body of Beers.
The provisional government was es-
tablished in the Consolidated gold fields
building, and three maxim guns were
placed in advantageous positions about
il. The new government then sent an
ultimatum TO the government of PreSl-
dent Kruger, who proposed a confer
ence at Pretoria on the following day.
Wednesday. The committee hesitated
to so to Pretoria without a safe con-
duct.
Dr. Jameson at this time was hourly
expected at johannesburg. Crowds of
people surrounded the Consolidated gold
fields building, and the work of recruit
ing was in full swing. Numbers OF
people left the town during the night
i'm bands of 50 each Later the commit
tee sent the following communication
TO Sir Hercules Robinson, the governor
Of Cape Colony:
we have absolute information tina.
a large body of Boers has been COM
manded to Immediately attack johann
neshUrg and shoot on sight all who
have been concerned in the agitation.
Affairs are so criical that we ask YOU
10 intervene TO protect the lives Of citl-
zens who have long agitated legally
their rights"

FOUR MN WERE killed
Mst Instant Death While Descending
Into a Mine.
An Elevator Balance Weight Of
About 1000 Pounds Fell Several
Hundred Feet and the Men Crush
ed Beyond Recognition.

ShamOkin. Pa. January 6.-While
four workmen were being lowered into
the new shaft Of the Luke Fiddler mine
this morning the billy" which bal
ances the elevator, and which weighs
about 1000 pounds, fell on them with
out warning. They were Instantly kill
ed. their bodies being crushed so hOr-
ribly as TO make them almos- unrecog-
nizable.
The victims were: James Merritt,
aged % years, Of Springfield, Pa; leaves
widow and one child. stephen Merritt,
aged Is years. of Springfield, Pa; leaves
widow and one child. Patrick Lynch
aged SO years. Of Springfield, Pa; sin
gle Peter Bober., aged % years, Oh
Springfield. Pa; leaves widow and one
child.
Ten men were engaged on the night
shift I'm sinking the new shaft ana
were hoisted to- the top at o'clock 10
eat their breakfasts. An hour later the
two MerritJs, Lynch and Robert stepped
into the shaft bucket and were beng
lowered into the workings but when
the bucket had descended about 500
feet Engineer Bowen noticed a Earring
oil the rome and Immediately stopped
the machinery. The workmen on top
found that the bucket was no longer
attached to- the wire rome, and they
rigged up another bucket and were
slowly lowered TO The bottom of the
shaft whore they found the other buck
ct spinterej and the mangled and
bleeding remains Of their four Inflated
comrades scattered over the rocky
floor All of the four fellows were dead.
The shaft bucket i'm which the four
men met their sudden death was guided
i'm it's upward and downward journeys
by big cross pieces and arms, known as
the "bily." and weighed half a ton.
The wire rope passed through the bill
ly.' and it is supposed that ice formed
on the rope while the w0rkmen We're
eating their meal. The bucket passed
the ice i'm safety, but the billy was
caught by it and the bucket had de-
scended several hundred feet before the
heavy weight caused the ice to- give way
and allowed the billy ID fan upon the
men who were I'm the bucket.
This co.liery had been idle since Oc-
tober S. 1894. when the mine was set
on ire by a careless workman and six
lives were los. four of the bodies not
being recovered for nearly q year.
Bobert who was killed this morning,
was q brother of one Of the victims of
the former disaster.

One of the first things the c5eervant

to place a dsl,cately constructed Their

operation was performed at once.

THE CHILD NEARLY EXPLODED.
Disastrous Results Following the Use OF a
Household Prescription.

Disastrous Results Following the Use OF a
Household Prescription.
A Germantown mother, reading in the
columns of a household journal not long
ago a novel method of quoting noisy
youngster, put it in practice, with a
somewhat unexpected result. The
scheme, as laid out in the practical mag
azine. consisted of smearing numerous
bits of raw cotton with molasaas and Civ
ing them to the squalling baby. Theo-
ret:cally. the child could then be left to
itself for about four hours, while It
was engaged in the interesting occupa-
ton of removing the sticky cotton from
its hands, says the Philadelphia Record.
Wishing to give the apparently feas.-
BILE plan a fair trial, the credulous moth
er procured a small bale Of cotton and
a pint of molasse5, mixed thoroughly,
according to the recipe, and served in a
dry fOotbath Then she plunged her
babes hands into the mess and went
about her business. When time was
called the astonished child toad the
scratch and didn't know whether to
laugh or cry. About to decide on the
latter, t occurred to the youngster that
the stuff smelied good, and might taste
good.
At this stage Of the game the expert
ment measured tWenty-one inches just
below the waist. When the intelligent
mother returned in about an hour her
progeny had disposed OF the entire mess,
measured thirty-three inches in c.Tcum-
ference and was in imminent danger of
exploding. The family physician, has
tily summoned, managed to afford re-
lief, and advised the fond parents to
quiet the child with matches next time
and to send for an undertaken.
