BUSINESS TRANSACTED.


About the first business which was transacted
after the rollcall the passage Of resolution ex-
pressing the thanks of the committee for the trouble
which Treasurer ST. John had taken In making the
arrangements for the notification meeting. In view
OF the Wrange the tickets, II was hard 10 say
II there no irony in the resolution. but Mr. 81
john who was present. appeared 10 think that ne
getting something for his trouble. Liquid re-
freshments did not have the effect make the
members Of the committee feel equal to much dis
cusson, and Chairman Jones had things pretty much
his own way. There was no objection when Senator
German presented for him a Of resolutions which
he had prepared, giving 20 him the power to
all the subcommittee FOR the campaign. The reso-
lutons follows:
Ynitee is hereby authorized 10 appoint an executive
committee TO consist Of twenty-five members, a
and finance committee, 10 consist Of twenty-five
members ana tnat the chairman OF this committee
shall be ex-officO member Of each OF said commit
tees.

mittees as he may deem necessary for the conduct
Resolved That the conduct OF the campaign shall
be under the charge Of the Campaign Committee
and that the said committee Is hereby empowered
10 select it's own chairman from among it's own
members. from the members Of the National
Commirfee or any person not member OF such
Csmpa,gn Committee National Committee and
said Campaign Committee is further authorized 70
~6mniittee not members OF the National Committee,
as II may deem proper ana IN sii matters which are
- he determned by said committee only the regular
members of said Campaign Committee Including the
nbairman OF the National Committee. shall vote.
After the resolutions were passed there was some
talk about suitable place for the Democratic
HEADQUARTERS for the campaign. A motion was
passed at length authorizing the chairman OF the
National Committee and the Campaign Committee
10 select place for the headquarters and open the
headouarters as soon as possible. Senator Jones,
who will thus have power to select the place for
the Headquarters, said he would consult Mr. Bryan
and Mr. sewall before making any cnoce. II Is said
that the reception Of Mr. Bryan in this city might
have some effect on the choice OF place for the
Democratic headquarters. The committee adjourned
to meet again in the same parlors at noon to-day.
Chairman Jones said later that he would not APP
point any of the subcommittee until to-day. and

nine and Dies.

wife of Thomas Critenden of this city

ing strychnine. The woman was IS
years of age. She and her family have

sations in this city during the past 10
years. She has been married three
times. George Perry. her son by her
first husband, killed Henry Gillardon
in n quarrel in this city t n years ago.
Her daughter, Rose Callahan, by her
second husband. committed suicide on
her wedding night seven years ago.
Her son. Eugene Callahan. a boy Of IA,
attempted to kill a young girl because

then killed himself. A month ago Mrs.
Critenden attempted to take a dose of
strychnine but was prevented by a
%neighbor.

SAFETY CARTRIDGE FOR FIERY
MINES.

Objections have been made by min
ing proprietors to the use of electric
firing devices in mining work, and
quicklime cartridges have been used
by many in preference. They can not.
however, replace the powerful, instan-
taneously acting explosives. A new
cartridge has been constructed on the
principle of combining quicklime and
dynamite shells in such a way that the
quicklime, by absorbing water, heats a
preliminary primer sufficiently to fire
off the ~detonator, which is imbedded
in the dynamite. The quicklime is ap-
piled in the shape Of cylindrical blocks,
ending in truncated cones. Into a hol-
low in the block fits a two-part capsule.
The part which is surrounded by the
quicklime contains a PREPARATION which
takes fire at PIP or 230 degrees (Fah-
renheit) the other part, which reaches
into the dynamite, Is charged with a
%detonator. When the lime Is Stacked
the temperature may rise to $50 de-
grees (Fahrenheit). The parts are not
put together before everything is
ready. The compound cartridge is
then inserted in a bag of loose cotton.
knitted like a stocking or woven like a
wick. A little wire is twisted around
the open end Of the bag, and the ends
of the wire are ben back. These wires
prevent the cartridge from slipping out
of a hole bored in an upward direction.
When the hole is inclined downward
water is simply poured into it over the
cartridge just fixed in position. When
this is not possible, either special, wa
ter bags of cartridge shape, made Of
a stoutish porous paper, are applied,
and fixed by a tamping. or the lower
part of the hole is filled with moss
soaked in water. Experiments with
this cartridge have been conducted in
a gallery containing a large proper
ton of methane and an ample supply
of coal dust, which was kept in agita-
ton. This method, inasmuch as the
explosion can not spread, is safer than
electric blasting. in which sparks are
so much to be feared. The flame Is
confined to the interior of the cart
ridge, and is stopped both by the slack
ed lime and by the water in the bore
hole.

the sample fine and s 1t, and so
has IA check as to what the mill should
do. for the assayed sample is an aver
age of a large lot, instead OF being

pcctOr finds the crusher an invaluable
addition to his stock of tools in making
an extended search for mines. He can
break off from the groupings 100 or
more pounds, crush it down and sam

PEELED to pack hundreds of pounds OF

that with the crusher he can assay
much larger lots of ore than with the
pestle and mortar, and can thus make
a greater number OF assays in a short
time.

IMPROVED HAND ROCK CRUsHER

A small machine has been designed
to enable a person quickly and easily
to crush by hand power to a fine pow
der h hardest ores. A great deal of
disappointment and loss has often been
caused 70 miners by the sampling of a
small quantity Of rock in a mortar, and
all experienced miners knew how risky
it is to base large calculations on a few
specks of gold. and thus give a valu-
ton per ton that would much exceed
that of a larger sample. Both jaws OF
the crusher are faced with hard white
or chilled iron, the lower parts Of
which are plain surfaces, between
which the ore is crushed fine. These
jaws are 3 inches wide and open at the
TOP TX inches. consequently a piece of
rock 3x1A inches a be crushed. With
the lower part Of the jaws set one
tenth OF an inch apart 40 pounds of the
hardest rock can easily be crushed in
one hour. and 20 per cent Of this will
then go through a No. 60 sieve. When
the machine is screwed up the balance
can be brought up to the same, or
a hneness. This crusher ia a
great help to the mine superintendent
In getting an accurate sample of ore.

Joseph Sweeney was stabbed in the

Charles Fisher and Thomas Reaney

sulting remark about him. He went to
his home, secured a carving knife and
returned to the place where the insult
occurred. Without a word of warning
he plunged the long knife into
O'Brien' heart, attacking the others in
