How They Came to London.

The following conversation took place be-
ween two gentlemen in a crowded London
club room. They had been talking about the
condition of things when they first came to
London. Mr.. Rawson said:
When | first came to London I had only
ragged coat, with knife and few mar
bles III my pocket"
on were better off than /, then. for I
had neither a coat nor waistcoat, nor q
knife, nor even marbles"
NONSENSE" was the reply. "How could
that be-"
well, will tell you. When / came here
l was a baby in long clothes"
The roar of laughter that arose could have
been heard miles away-Tit-B Bits.

HAVANA, July 21.-The Spanish gum
boat Maria Christiana, under command
of Lieut.. Crogner, had a narrow es-
cape from destruction while recon-
noitering the River Baines, in Santa
go province, recently. The vessel stop
ped just short of dynamite mine,
which was exploded without much
damage to the ship. The Cuban camps
along shore kept up hot fire on the
warship, and killed and wounded sew
eral of the Spanish soldiers.
New YORK, July 21.-Letters to
prominent Cubans in this city from
friends in Madrid say that the Span
ish populace is tired of the Cuban bur-
den, and the feeling is publicly ex-
pressed that the Spaniards had better
let Cuba go. The opinion is expressed
that Spain has reached a moment like
that when the English became per-
suaded of the futility of their efforts to
subdue the colonies which now form
the United States.

AN EXPLOSION
I'm the Cartridge Factory of the winches-
ter Arms CO.-Four Killed and Five In

In the Cartridge Factory of the winches-
ter Arms CO.-Four Killed and Five In
jured.
NEW HAVEN, Ct, July % -Four
women and two men were killed Wed
nesday by an explosion in the loading
department at the armory of the Win
chester Repeating Arms Co. Five
others were taken to the hospital bad
ly injured. The dead are: W. F. Bau-
mer, Mrs. Mary Baumeister, Miss Josie
Brennan, Miss Ida Brown, VIM. Hill
and Miss Tracy Conroy. Fatally in
jured: Geo Bardorf and Edward Bar
dorf.
The explosion occurred in the load
ing room. Employed in this room
were $50 hands, two-thirds of them
girls or women. Nearly all of the fe-
male hands are employed on the load
ing machines. The full complement
of hands were at work in the room
when the explosion took place. Forty
feet of the side building was blown out
and hurled in pieces many feet and
fragments of human bodies were scat
tered about. All availa BILE physicians,
the fire department, the police, the
ambulance and hospital corps were
speedily summoned. narrowing scenes
were enacted as the vast throng con-
gregated about the place.
As rapidly as a victim was seen to be
alive the sufferers were tenderly cared
for, made as cOmfOrta BILE as possible
and conveyed with all possible speed
to their homes. Two of the bodies had
been decapitated. Others had been
partially torn asunder, and still others
had been dismembered.
The officials of the company extend
ed every effort to assist in the work of
relief.
Perhaps the saddest scene was enact
ed when John Baumeister, but recent
ly married, learned that his wife was
among the dead. At the time of the
explosion he was at work but few
feet from her. The cause of the ex-
plosion has not been determined. 1t
may have been due to a cartridge i'm
properly placed in the loading ma
chine.
Edward Bardorf died after being
taken to the hospital.

ON THURSDAY
The Senate May Reach a Vote on the
Conference Report.
The Republicans Will Vote Soiidlv for the
X port, Supported by the Silver Re-
publicans and One Two Demo.
Gratis and One PopuIist q.

WASHINGTON, July 21.-The indica-
tions when the senate adjourned Tues.
day were that vote would be reached
upon the conference report on the
tariff bill some time during Thursday,
or, at the latest, before the close of
the week. There may be a change in
the conditions which will postpone a
vote, but it is difficult to see what
could cause it. The opposition to the
Dill realize that there is no possibility
OF preventing adoption of the report,
and their present purpose is only to
secure what advantage they can by
exhibiting what they claim are the in
conslstencles of the measure It is true
that at one time they had some hope of
being able to secure the recommittal
of the bill, but thorough canvass re-
veals 10 foundation for this hope. 1t
develops the fact that the Republicans
will vote solidiy for the report and that
they will be supported by Messrs.
Jones, of Nevada Silver repu blican), and
McEnery, of Louisiana, democrat, and
also probably Messrs Mantle and Stew
art, silver republicans. They have also
discovered that Senator KYLE (pop.)
who is absent, has left strict instruc-
tons that he should not be paired.
With the adoption of the report thus
assured. the democrats probably will
not attempt TO prolong the debate be-
yond. the arrival of Mr.. Turley, the
new senator from Tennessee. They
will continue to ask for an explana-
ton of changes made by the confer
ence, but these will not occupy a great
deal of time
The general opinion is that the
quorum of the senate will disappear
very soon after the disposal of the tar
iff bill, but the determination of the
supporters of the Harris Pacific rail-
road resolution to secure vote upon
it before final adjournment may delay
that consummation for some days.
WASHINGTON. July 21.-Representa.

gate at the start $3.50, 600, 900 of which
not over 500, 0OO,OO shall con-

Phiscator, of this city, who went to
the Klondyke, Alaska, last winter has
just returned with $4,000 in gold.
Phiscater reached the field in the dead

searching, one day he came upon lit
tie stream which flowed down the side
Of the mountain and emptied into a
basin. The water was clear. and in
peering down its shallow depths,
Phiscater discovered gold. He picked
all his metal out of the ice cold water.

TO kLONDYKE.

Passengers Must Wait for the August
Boats-The Journey Is 1000 Miles From
Chicago.
CHICAGO, July 21.-P. B. Weare, vice
president of the North American Trad
ing Co., is receiving hundreds of let
tiers asking information regarding the
Alaskan gold fields He said Tuesday:
1.-THE boats which sail from Seattle
this month are full-every passage
taken. That means that any one who
wants to go to Klondyke must wait for
the August boats. And the journey
is 1000 miles. People talk about it
as if it was walking across the
street. They don't realize what Alaska
is-what the Yukon is. They will need
map to convince them of the truth
that the country of the Yukon and its
tributaries in Alaska and British
America is as large as the whole of the
United States east of the Mississippi
that it is longer than a trip to Europe
before they reach the Behring sea and
the mouth of the Yukon; that by the
time they strike the Yukon the Alas
kan arctic winter will be upon them.
by September 25 the winter sets
down and the Yukon country is frozen
solid until next May.
The expense of getting from Chi
cago to Seattle is 500 and from Seattle
to the Behring sea is $3.50. There will
be thousands of eastern men who will
go but of course the coast people have
everything in their favor. One thing
must be remembered that the Klon-
dyke country is in British domain and
will be governed accordingly.

THE LARGEST SINGLE ORDER FOR
CREAM SEPARATORs EVER GIVEN.
A Noted Iowa Creamery Operator Or
ders Five Hundred at One Time.

w. L. Moody, Iowa's greatest creamery
operator, estimates that it costs an average
OF 10 cts. per 100 lbs. to haul milk to a cream
cry and haul the skim milk away again
He is going to save all this by placing with
his patrons Dairy Separators, and have
wagons call for the cream.
In this way the farmer will get the full adj
vantage of the Separator and creamery sys-
TENS, will have the warm fresh skim milk
at home for stock feed and will not be at ex-
pense of carting his milk to creamery.
Before ordering these 500 Separators, val
ued at over $4,000, the merits of all the
different Dairy Separators on the market
were very thoroughly considered and prac-
teal tests were made by Mr. Moody.
1t was finally decided that the Sharples
Separators, made at West Chester, Pa,
were the most desirable and best made ma
chimes, and though costing a little more
money, it was thought they were well worth
the difference asked, and the order was
given to that company.
