REDUCED TO SILENCE.
Land Batteries Fire on Our Vessels While
Cutting Cables---A Lively
Little Battle.

New York. May pa St. Thomas.
Danish West Indies, special says the
firing at Santiago de Cuba on Wednes-
day, May Is, was between the Span
iards there and two American vessels.
Acting under orders from Admiral
Sampson, the auxiliary cruiser st.
Louis and the tug Wampatuck went to
Santiago for the purpose of cutting the
cable there. The cable was picked up
within range of the guns of MORO
Castle, and the Spaniards at once
opened fire on the Americans.
The men who detailed to cut the ca
BILE grappled for it from the deck OF
the St. Louis. They found it with
little difficulty and coolly lifted it to
the forecastle of the st Louis, where it
was cut, the Spaniards meanwhile do
ing their best to disable the cruiser.
The engagement was lively while il
lasted. The St. Louis brought her to.
tai armament of four 6-pounders into
play, while the Wampatuclx used her
one 3-pounder With this small arma-
ment the Americans finally succeeded
in silencing all but two or three of the
Spanish guns. Neither of the Ameri.
can vessels was seriously damaged.

PERILS OF MINING.
A Cave-in Occurs in an Ore Mine Near
Mayersvtlle, Pa, and Four
Men Are Killed.

Allentown, Pa, May 23.-Four men
were crushed to death Saturday by a
cavern at Hartzell G. Swarth's hema-
tite ore mines, near Mayersville. They
were Jacob Reinhard, aged 40, having a
wife and two children; Oscar Reinhard,
his brother, aged "a, having wife and
three children; Morris Dry, single, 81,
all of Fredericksville, Berks county;
Frank Eidell, single, aged 80. The lat
ter lived at Allentown. The men were
working in slope 72 feet below the
surface, replacing the temporary props
with permanent supports when the
slide occurred. The timbers were
pushed over, pinning the men fast and
crushing them to instant death. A new
shaft was sunk near the place where
the bodies lay, and men have been work
ing in shifts ever since the accident in
the effort to reach the bodies, but with
out success so far.

a SOUTHERN CYCLONE.
It Brings Death to Many and De-
stroys Much Property n Ar
#5 kansas and Texas.

Fayetteville, Ark, May 23.-The tor
nado which passed through a portion
of northwest Arkansas Friday night did
immense damage to property and
caused the death of at least seven per-
sons. Reports Of the destruction are
coming in slowly and it is feared that
later details will add other names to the
death list. The storm came from the
southeast, passing through the great
fruit belt of the Ozark fruit region, and
tore its way through the southern end
of Benton county, spending its force in
the White river valley. Everything in
its path was destroyed, the greatest
damage being done near Elm Springs,
Lowell and Midtown, the latter place
being entirely swept away. At Elm
Springs houses were blown down,
orchards destroyed and stock killed.
One man who had sought safety in a
cellar was killed by falling timbers.
The house blew away and the cellar
was filled with debris, crushing the
man to death.
Two miles east of Elm Springs man
named Killingsworth and his wife were
killed. Their house was entirely de-
stroyed and they were crushed to death
in the debris. A mile away farmhouse
occupied by an italian family was
wrecked and the inmates were instant
ly killed. The residences of w. H. Hol-
comb and w. B. Pierson were destroyed.
Twenty houses are reported blown
away in the vicinity of Elm Springs, but
details have not been received.
Ike storm was less severe in Craw-
ford county, but one life was lost near
Fort Smith. A Mrs. Nesbitt died from
fright while the gale was at it's fiercest.
The home of W. S. Kimbrough. near
springdale, was blown down and Kim
brough was instantly killed. Several
other farmhouses were blown down
near springdale and six to eight per.
sons. more or less, seriously injured.

the other was seen. but it was going 1t
great speed. The engineer, C. w.
Wheeler, stuck to his post to the last,
and escaped with only manned ankle.
He and his fireman were at once arrest
ed and placed under squad of SOL
diers. They are gravely censured by
the soldiers for running so rapidly with
q special ahead of them.
All the horses of the officers, valua BILE
animals, were killed. The forward
coaches of the military train were badly
shaken, but no injury was done any one
in them. The damage would have been
much greater had the train not been
made up in exactly the reverse of the
usual order. If it had gone out in reg
ular order the sleepers would have been
in the rear and the officers who occupied
them would have been killed instead of
the horses. The wounded, about IL in
all, were at once taken in charge by
Surgeon Wills, of the First battalion of
the regiment.
Washington, May %. - Upon receiv-
ing news of the disaster, resulting in

NOTED AUTHOR DEAD.


Springfield, Mass, May 23.-EdWard
Bellamy, author Of Looking Back
ward, 2 Equality etc, died at his
home in Chicopee Falls at an early hour
Sunday morning. s.
Edward Bellamy was born at Chicopee
Falls March 26. 1850. and was the third son
Of Rev. r. K. Bellamy, for IS years pas
tor Of the Baptist church OF Chtcopee
Falls After finishing course at Union
college he completed his education by
year Of European travel and study. BY
the study Of law he was. at q years Of
age admitted to the bar of Hampden coun-
ty, Mass. From the legal profession he
went into journalism.
It was in 1883 that his famous book LOOK
Ing Backward" was published, the sale az o., OF
which up to the present time is over 45O,0o0
COPIES in America and probably over hadt
q million copies have been sold in England
and other foreign countries. Looking
Backward has been translated into Ger
man, French, Russian, Italian, ARABIC Bui-
garian and several other languages. II IS
stated that Emperor William purchased TO-
BOO copies of Looking Backward" which
be distributed among the students and
working classes Of Germany. HIS reason
for 80 doing, If this Is really true. Is APP
parent to those conversant with German
politics.
December 30. 1891, Mr. Bellamy, being con-
vinced that it was his duty to supplement
his efforts in Looking Backward'"by edu-
eating the people toward reform in govern
ment, issued the first number OF the New
Nation, paper destined to become the
most quoted and influential political or evo-
lutionary journal in the world. An idea
II it's influence may be judged from the
tact that since the New Nation was started
over $50 papers devoted to national1sm nave
been launched in the United States, Can
ada and Mexico, and thousands of papers
through the direct inspiration of the New
Nation have started departments devoted
10 political reform. which are conducted
md edited from the writings of Mr.. Bel.
lamy in the New Nation and Looking
Backward.'1

This is nothing more than the delinea-
ton of character from the shape of the
tongue. A big tongue indicates frank
ness, long tongue generous feelings, a
tongue concentration of ideas. Long
and broad tongues indicate fondness for
talk; short and broad ones, equal ca
pacity to talk, but not to speak the
truth, while those that arc short and
narrow show an unmistakable tendency
to Machiavelian lying.
