AL RICHARDS KILLED.
Falls From a Ladder in the Shaft
of the Lucky Ouss Mine.


A Cripple Greek telegram states
that Al Richards, a miner employ
ed on the Sellers q Porter lease on
the south end of the Lucky Guss,
was killed by fall in the shaft
yesterday.
Richards and one Murphy had
touched off the shots in the drift
of SO feet They started to the
surface by way of the ladder, Muir
ply taking the lead. When near
ly to the collar of the shaft Muir
phys attention was attracted to
the man following him by hearing
him utter cry. He turned only
to see his companion falling down
the shaft. The man struck on his
head and shoulders on the platform
at the drift. Assistance was soon
at hand and the injured man was
placed in the bucket and hauled
to the surface; Richards was still
alive when he reached the surface,
but died soon after.
AL Richards was about 80 years
of age, married and had two babies.
He was living at Mound City, hav-
ing previously been employed at
the Brodie mill. He was an ex-
perienced miner and had previous
ly worked in coal mines. 1t is
supposed that he was seized with
a fit of dizziness while ascending
the ladder, or that from some other
unexplained cause, ne lost his hold
and fell.
His parents and brothers are
residents of this city, who have
been notified, but no definite ar
engagements have been made as yet
for the funeral and interment.

A SHORT EXTRA SESSION.

When the several members of
the general assembly, in reply to
Governor Thomas inquiry, urged
special session of that body, it
was on the matter of state reve-
nues and the maintenance of Ger
tain state institutions. The amend
ment of the Denver charter was
not suggested either by the gov
ernor or the legislators, neither has
the state press indicated that it
was the desire of the people to
have special session called for
this purpose. Notwithstanding
these facts, however, there is a
clamor on the part of Denverites
to have the matter included in the
call. The Denver charter propo-
sition is not an emergency. An
extra session is an expensive propo-
sition and there can be no excuse
for holding the assembly in con-
vention for longer period than is
absolutely necessary to enact
measures providing for the states
revenues and the maintenance of
state institutions.

IMPOSSIBLE,

Mr.. Bryan is reported to have
said in Chicago: "The Filipinos
should not only be given indepen-
dence, but protected from outside
interference while they work out
their destiny"
Surely that must have been a
remark without thought on his
part. Suppose it were to be tried,
and the brown men should decide
to confscate the property of the
Spanish and Chinese in the islands,
what then? Suppose they should
determine to make treaties with
foreign nations, treaties favorable
say to Spain and France, but not
at all favorable to Great Britain
and the United States, would Mr..
Bryan expect our country to keep
peace there as against the quarrels
of outsiders? Suppose they should
establish a church and forbid wor-
ship of any other kind in the
islands.
Again, suppose after forming a
crazy government, they should de-
eide that they did not desire the
presence of the United States sol
diers or ships, what then? Under
such an arrangement what would
be the status of our people and our
authority in the islands? We
would have no respect from the Fill
ipinos and none from foreign pow
ers, When there is talk about a
people establishing an independ-
ent state, it is presupposed that
they are capable to form and con-
duct government. All the evil
dence from the Philippines goes
to establish that they have not that
intelligence. Hence, the very ba-
sis of Mr.. Bryan's idea falls to the
ground, and what he proposes is
chimerical. Salt Lake Tribune.
The Florence daily tribune., 1899-08-07

the most severe crisis the state has
suffered from to belabor and BELT
tie the proprietors of the organs
and to make settlement all the
more difficult. The editor and
proprietor of the News accuses the
editor and proprietor of the Re-
publican of melting to riot, while
the latter, in turn, paints the edit
or and proprietor of the News as a
full fedged anarchist applying the
anarchists torch. The interests
of the state and of the people at
large have been entirely ignored
and the hates and personal feel
ings of the two disappointed indi-
viduals have been made the para
mount feature of the states great
misfortune. If these manufacur-
ers of public opinion could see
themselves rs their readers see
them they would find surcease for
their disappointments in some less
public manner, and use what little
influence remains to their personal
organs in bringing about settle
ment of the strike in an honorable
manner. There will be a campaign
this fall and it should not be ask
ing too much of them to have them
retain their spleen and venom I'M
til that more convenient season.
AT such time the people are always
prepared for an onslaught of bill
ingsgate. -Leadville Herald Dem

THE man who will devise a plan
for settling the vexed question be-
tween laborer and employer will
deserve a monument to his memo
ry. There are three things to do:
First, devise some legal method for
muzzling the jawsmith; second,
smooth the feathers of the capital
list so he can see beyond the rim of
his pocket and recognize the needs
of labor; third, elevate labor to see
over and beyond the barrier that
is being erected between himself
and his employer, by selfish inter
ests. There is common ground
upon which the two should meet
and settle their difficulties, and on
that ground no professional agita-
tor should be allowed to trespass.

GRENADA COLLEGE RECITAL.
An Evening With the Muses. and Com.
muni0n With Art.

The college chapel was thronged on
Tuesday evening, May 9th, with an
audience that was intelligently critical
and discriminating, on the occasion of
the recital given by Misses Life
Wyatt and Pink Cone, graduates in
Music, Degree M. B., under the prac-
tical eye of Mrs. E. A. Neblett, Di-
rector of Music in the institution. The
program was rich in selections from
the master composers, and in their ex-
ecution the talent displayed by the per-
formers was revelation Of excellence
In art by budding votaries.
A duett, one Of Douizetti's gems,
rendered by Misses wyatt and Cone,
opened the feast Of melody and was
rapturously accepted by The appreci-
alive listners. A choice selection by
the orchestra, which was composed of
violins, msndolips and the guitar to
the accompaniment Of the piano, was
q subtle, delightful composition by
Miss Wyatt and effectively presented.
schubert's gems, ''Erl King" "Hark,
Hark, the Lark,"a a duett Of mastery
competition, were skilltully played on
the piano by Miss Wyatt and every
chord vibrated with the touch Of the
aeft fingers that gave expression to the
spirit Of the pieces. The violin solo,
by Miss Cone, was exquisite, and though
perhaps it may be admitted that the
best strains Of harmony cannot be
'ully drawn from the violin by a wo-
nan, as severe critics will insist, it |
must be acknowledged that Miss Cone g |
manipulation Of the instrument went
ar towards discrediting that belief.
A mandolin duett, by Misses Cone
Ind Wyatt, followed by one OF Mozart's
'onatas on the piano by Miss Cone, gave
,est to the elaborate entertainment.
The quartette, in selection from Ru.
arranged by Miss Wyatt and
'endered by a group of violinists,
