THE LATEST FOR FOR
ESTS.

The disastrous cyclone at st. Louis
several weeks ago has led to much
discussion as to method of prevent
ing such terrible loss of life and pro
perty. Chief Hazen of the Weather
Bureau states that the funnel shaped
cloud which is nucleus of the cyclone
is similar to Il water spout at sea, and
that it is heavily charged with cleo
tricity.
If this cloud can be broken up or
the electricity drawn off, then the
most dangerous part is destroyed.
Mr. HaZen states that forests are the
best possible means of accomplishing
this, but that in the west, where these
cyclones occur, many more disasters
must occur before forests can be
grown.
TO afford temporary relief the chief
of the Weather Bureau proposes the
exploding of dynamite bombs in the
midst of the el-shaped cloud, thus
disintOrgating it, and destroying its
power to ruin property and destroy
lives.
Thus again we have n practical il
lustration of the protective valu1 of
forests. The absence of cylones nthe
East and in the forest regions of the
west, is strong proof of the correct
ness of Chief HaZen's theory.
If science can be applied to tenn
porarily take the place of forests as a
cyclone destroyer it will have achiev
ed another great victory for humanity.
The Weather Bureau has record
of over two thousand cyclones, which
have on an average, cost one human
life and a loss of upwards of twenty
thousand dollars for each cyclone.

TIE COME DERATE REUNION.

An assem- Ol age winch recalls Ques-
ton of great import, whether it be
social or poll teal, naturally awakens
q fervor in the hearts and minds of
Americans, and the very notable con
yention which has been held at Rich
mond during this week has not been
an exception to the rule. From every
section of the country south of Mason
and Dixon's line, the gray clad veter-
ans have gone to greet each other
and live again in the smoky atmos-
phere of battle. To recall the stirring
incidents of war and feast their eyes,
perhaps for the last time, upon the
well loved forms of those who were
their leaders during that dark period
when every day either heralded Il
glorious victory or dismal defeat. The
appearance of each famed commander
was the signal for such orations
as full to the lot of but few mortals.
The grizzl5d veteran cavalry leader
Wade Hampton aroused an intense
enthusiasm as he forced his way to
the platform through n multitude
struggling to greet him, and Others as
ell-known came in for full share of
compositions welcome.
The object for which the convention
was called is an exceedingly interest
ing one to the adherents of the Lost
Cause" Leaving outside the monu-
ment services, the idea of providing for
the relief and maintenance of the dis
abled and impoverished veterans is
praise worthy and should meet with
most earnest sympathy and co-opera-
ton of all who honor courage or adj
mire devotion, whether it be exhibited
by followers of the Stars and Bars or
of the Flag of Our Union. The tens
of thousands who were witnesses to
he ceremonies or partook in the
stirring scenes which have just been
enacted in the city on the James, goes
to prove that there is life in the old
land yet.''

To the warning of the true bme-
tallists that free silver coinage at 16
to 1 by this government alone would
drive gold out of use as money, and
so cause a disastrous contraction,
shallow critics sneeringly ask:
Where would the gold go to ?" 1t
would go where it went during the
war time-either abroad or into hid
ing or into vaults as a commodity for
speculative gambling. 1t would go
where gold has gone liz every free
coinage country in the world-out of
sight and ont of use eitheras currency
or as the reserve for ks.-NeW

We see no indications that the
Republicans desire the overthrow of
free coinage at Chicago. AS near as
we can come at their sentiments, the
Republican newspapers are merry and
the Republican leaders eXultant over
the prospective triumph, of silver in
nomination and platform. 1t is the
way of politics to be gleeful when the
enemy goes to the bad.-New York

While the free silver Democrats
have control of the National Conven-
ton, it must not be forgotten that the
people on whom they rely for votes
will not endorse any Republican who
has left the ranks on the monetary
question. We must remember there
are many other issues at stake, and that
" hat we have fought for and practi-
cally gained in years past, are not
things we can afford to lose easily.

HORICE BOIES on TIE SITUi-
TION

Horace Boies, of Iowa, one of the
leaders of the West, and recognized as
one of the most conservative OF the
prominent free silver men OF the coun-
try, states in recent issue of the
New York World, over his signature,
his views on the financial question.
One of the questions asked him by
The H'0rld was the following:
"If the adoption OF the free coinage
should make all our paper and silver
money worth about 60 cents on the
dollar in gold. would not the enormous
shrinkage produce the greatest panic
ever known in the country, and would
it not require at least sixteen years, If
the entire silver product of the United
States were coined into money at the
present ratio, to raise the volume of
our total stock of money to its present
value ~
In reference to the panic he says:
There would be no excuse for Il
panic unless it were precipitated vol
UNFAIRLY by the creditor class.
'If this should be done the people
of this nation who do not belong to
the creditor class would he fully com
petent to defend themselves, through
laws which they could easily make,
and which they would be entirely
justified in making il il necessity there
for should be created. 1t is not prob
able that intelligent business men will
force Il necessity of this character"

EXPELLING THE GAS.
That Work Is Still in Progress at the
Twin Shaft.-.Board of Trade
Fund to Date.

Good progress is being made in fore
ing the gas out of the Twin shaft at
PittTon but the mine is not yet in a
condition to allow the worklnen to go
down into it and resume the work of
clearing up the slope leading to the
place where the men are entombed.
There was a tremendous quantity of gas
in the old workings and ii will take
some time tn expel all of it. The Pitts
ton Item has the following:
There is one thing in connection with
the mine cave that has heretofore es-
capped notice, and that Is the fact that
the miners employed at the shaft have
suffered the loss of their mining tools.
Ea ch miners outfit contains the follow
ing articles. with their prices at the
minimum figures: One machine drill,
81; one hand drill. $l.5O; one scoop, Acc. /;
needle. G5c.; scraper. GJc.; pick. 81: oil
can. 50c.; axe. 75c. Many miners have
other tools in addition to the above.
Some of the men at the Twin shaft had
just taken in Il supply of powder. which
costs them $2.7j Il keg. Each miner's s
loss was therefore at least $l2.J0. AS
there were about 200 places in the part
affected by the fall. the surviving
miners lost at least $500.
1t speaks volumes for the poor miners
that they have suffered their loss i'm
silence, for there has been no one as yet
heard to complain about the loss OF
these tools. Mention is made of the
fact because all those miners who have
been thrown out of employment since
the cave. whenever seeking work else
W here. must buy IA new set Of tools.

very hard to bear these hard times"

Damages in the sum Of $4,000
Asked from J. A. lipinski and
Daniel LangOwski, Of the Ty.
gondik for an Article Which Ap.
peared in That Paper Charging the
Priest with Serious OHenses.

Rev. B. Iwanowski, of St. Mary's
Polish Catholic church. Priceburg. in
stituted proceedings in court yester-
day for libel against Joseph A. Lipinski
and Daniel Langowski. of the Tygon-
dix. Polish weekly published on Pros
pect avenue, South Side. Damages in
the sum of $4,000 are asked from each
of the defendants.
In last Saturdays issue of the Tygon-
dix communication was printed signed
by John MaciejewSka, of the Ridge,
Archibald. in which Father Iwanowski
was charged with drunkenness and
other serious offences. The writer
of the communication alleges that early
i'm July one of his daughters died and
when the remains Were brought to the
church for prayers to be said for the
repose of her soul. the priest was not
able to move himself in bed, he was SO
drunk
A few days afterward Maciejewska's
son died. and when the remains were
brought to the church Father IVAN
Owski was not In. The communication
concludes with these words: II again
buried my little child without the bless
Ing of thy unworthy servant. although
l had paid for it. l forgive as Christ
taught, but as member of his congre-
cation, l make II known to the other
members of this congregation in Price
burg that a priest such as this. is not
worthy to be priest: that such Il priest.
instead of spreading the faith, destroys
it in the hearts of his little ones; that
while he himself directs his own steps
into the Internal gates, he causes the
others to follow him; and that, i'm con
clusion. such priest brings shame upon
ALL"
The priest Is also charged with flour
iShing a revolver and threatening to
kill Maciejewska. All these charges are
denied by the priest. His attorneys in
the suit are NJ. W. Lowry and George

contract in the name of the district
