aueled bulldozing. alone defeated Bry-
an. may be conjectured.
This WORKOUT trick of denial has
been worked once too often, however
and the organs foolish enough TO take
refuge in such palpable falsehood, sue
coed only in making themselves con-
temptible and a general laughing stock
The fact is. the great lights in the
Republican party are worried. They
don't know where they stand and they
they are desperately fearful of the
future. In their dilemma they are en-
deavoring by the brazen falsehood we
have alluded TO to throw the people
off the track. and are now desperately
attempting to gain time by promising
that prosperity will come with the
Dingley tariff. The demagogues know
that this IS as empty as ter other
promises. but it is their last straw
and they clutch at it wildly. They
know they are promising for the mon
grel bill now in the Senate something
il cannot give. The new bill will per-
nit the trusts to levy increased tribute
on the people; but that will not re-
store confidence; taxation VII not
make money.
The Republican leaders are like the
parrot that got fnro trouble from talk
ing too much; they have promised too
much. 1t was infinitely foolish for
them 70 advertise boom Immediately
after the election. but il is more fool
ism for them to deny that the prophecy
Of prosperity had ever been made.
One can't help wondering what hole
these ingenious prevaricators will crawl
into when their tariff promises are
proven false beyond question.

MASKED ROBBERS
Tie Up Waterman and Break Safe.
Cot ConsiderahIe BOOTY.

I'll. Up Waterman and Break Safe.
Got Considerable Booty.
Nevada, Cal, June AT midnight
two masked men bound Peter Seth,
who was in charge of the mill at the
Providence mine, broke open the safe
and stole large quantity of malgamate.
Peter Seth. the Waterman, was alone
in the mill at midnight and was about
to eat lunch when he was covered by
a pistol in the hands of masked man
and ordered to throw up his hands.
Another man also covered him with a
rifle. Seth was blindfolded and tied
to a chair, bound to the concetrator.
The robbers then burst open the safe
with a sledge hammer and secured sew
eral bags of amalgamum. Supt. Nc
Kinley will not divulge the amount OF
the loss. but it is believed to be from
$500 to $4,000. representing the
scrapings from the plates since the
general cleanup last month.
The robbers, after securing their
booty. departed, warning Seth that he
would be killed if he moved for two
hours. Seth waited an hour and then
managed to release himself and gave
the alarm. No trace of the thieves has
vet been found.

TIE INNFS' Band CONCERT
At Wheeling Park Casino Last Night
Was an Artistic Success.
The Organization Attracted the
Largest Audience That Ever
Assembled There for an Enter
tainment - The SOloists and
Sand Created Very Favorable
Reception.

The largest audience ever assembled
in the Casino at Wheeling Park greet
ed the famous lines band organization
last evening, and not only by Mr.. In
mes. the solo trombonist, was the
compliment deserved, but by Mr.. In
mes, the director, and each man under
him, and the ladies assisting him as
well
All the concerted work was of IN
usual excellence and deserved the en-
cores given. His own compositions
were especially delightful and thor
oughly enjoyed. His trombone solo
was magnificent as was the accompan-
iment. This number while all solo
lists deserve praise for their various
work, was one of the rare treats OF the
evening. A second rendering was
asked, but Mr.. Innes innate modesty
prevented his second appearance, and
instead quartet responded superbly
Miss Webb, a star of this travelling
organization, fairly captiyated the
audience with her violin playing, but
the piano accompaniment was no sup
port whatever. Nine. Rose Linde, Of
whom much was expected, met all re-
quirements Her voice is something
marvellous in its range and she uses it
with style. To the never ending APP
plause she responded with In Old
Madrid" and the waltz song from Der
Vogelhandler" Mr. Emil Kencke. the
cornet virtuoso. certainly proved him
self such in the Interpretation of his
programmed selection, and the enthu-
siasm of the audience was at its highest
during this performance. For encore
he played "Oh Promise Me" most beau
tifully.
These concerts are deserving of the
highest praise from an artistic stand
point, and nothing better than last
nights audience could be offered Mr..
lines as an inducement to return, ex-
cept the assertion that just such an
other would assemble if he did The
audience which assembled in the
Casino was not only compliment to
the band numerically, but in quality
as well as it represented the musical
culture of the city and vicinity. The
facilities of the W. & Z. G. Railway
Company for handling the crowd were
excellent. Three trains returned after
the performance, and all the coaches
were in the shed before midnight.

Sulphur Mines.

A company of Pittsburg capitalists,
represented by J. A. Dubbs and Ora
ham CaldicOtt, with headquarters in
Yuma, have commenced active devel-
opment of the sulphur mines in Lower
California, about thirty-twO miles west
of Yuma and six miles from the Colo
RADIO river. Recent developments have
revealed almost incalculable quantitie:
of ore which assays 80 per cent pure
sulphur, and can be shipped in the
crude state to the eastern refneries at
a handsome profit.
The method of mining the ore is
simplicity personified. Wagons are
driven into deep vertical cuts, the
walls of which are sulphur, and the
ore is simply broken down and loaded
into the wagons below by means OF
chutes. The ore is combustible ard
burns readily if lighted with match.
The Yuma Sentinel thinks sulphur
refinery is one of Yuma's pos sibilites
and " i'll probably be established with
in the next two years.

Increase in Output.

The regular weekly letter of the
Kendrick Promotion company contains
the following Interesting review of the
condition of the mining business of
Co,orad, for the PIT 8 smomth:
The output of the mines of Cripple
Greek has increased rapidly and been
limited TO the capacity of.tne reduction
works for the lower grade ores: which
have been and are being largely extend
ed, but unable to take care of the out
put of the camp. The product of the
first eight m months of the year in Grip
pie Creek has been equaled in many
camps of the stale, and $ not from any
spasmodic effort or coalition but from
a more extended and better system of
mining and management. The report
of the state inspector of mines gives
the tonnage of ore extracted from
the mines for the first six months of
this year as almost doub BILE that for the
same time in 1896, while in value he
gives 26 per cent above that for the
same time of 1896; this is accounted for
by the large amount of low grade ore
handled profitably. HIS report shows
also that there are 5.124 men more
employ ed in the mines, and that the
wages remain practically the same per
day per man.

John Temple Graves, of the Atlanta
Journal, is a lecture on 1.-The New Wo

In 1910, when the great Harriet
Martineau came to this country, she
found only seven paying occupations
into which women mad entered They
were allowed to teach, to sew, they
could keep boarding houses AID make
hash, they were allowed to be factory
operative aud to enter pr ntlng offices
and become book binders by trade.
The last federal census shows list OF
more than $500 employments in which
woman is honOrably and successfully
engaged. The sex is filling, every
where, places Of trust and profit with
conspicuous success. It is stated upon
authority that there are in this cOun-

A fight has been in progress for sew
eral years between revenue otcerS
and the illicit distillers in the wild
district adjacent to jackson, KY. The
best of the fighting. They have killed
deputies and then hidden in the hills
until the next attack. j w. Wooten,
the deputy United States marshal for
Breathitt county, with four other Off
GERS, was ordered to the top OF jackson
| mountain yesterday to destroy still
and capture the mOOnshiners. AS they
approached the still two mOonshiDers
were seen coming out of the hut. The
four officers with Wooten dropped
back, while he went forward alone. As
the moonsbiner to throw up their
hands, but they opened fire on him
with rifles.
Wooten wore a shirt of mail and
stood still as rock while the leaden
storm poured upon him, and when the
two moonsbiners had exhausted the
magazines of their guns, he rushed for
ward and captured them single hand
ed.
Wooten is the first man in the coun-
try to introduce shirt of mail as
protection from the bullets of the
moonshiners. He came through the
e ght with scarcely mark upon him.
He stood within fifty yards of the II en-
who ware firing at him, and took des-
perate chances that their aim would be
so good that they would not miss his
chest. The two moonshiners were
amazed, and thinking there was some
supernatural protection to WOOten,
dropped their guns at the word of COM
mand and were easily captured. When
WOoten had take their guns, his
brother officers came forward and the
moonshiners were handcuffed and
brought. in.
