TRAGEDY AT LINCOLN.
James Burnham Shoots His Father
in Self-Defense.

Lincoln, Neb., Aug. 19.-James NJ
Burnham, publisher Of the Wymoran,
at Wymore, Neb., shot and killed his
father Captain Collins A. Burnham,
at their home today. A coroners jury
eXOnerated the son. Both father and
son were prominent political workers
In the county in which they reside.
The killing was in self-defense Cap
tain Burnham was a captain in the
Civil war; and, while a congenial man
when sober, he was a fiend when in
toXicated.
Many times he had threatened to kill
all members of his family This morn
ing the father came home and made
an assault upon his son. The father
used a butcher knife and, after getting
his son in a corner, was in the act of
plunging the knife into his body. When
there was no other alternative the son
drew a revolver and fired a shot, which
went through Captain Burnham' s
heart, killing him instantly.

POISONED AT A FESTIVAL.
Ice Cream Supposed to Have Been
Made in Copper Cans the Cause.

Somerville, n. j., Aug. 1S.-Many of
the people who attended a harvest
home festival at Grggstown on Thurs
day night are now suffering from
ptomaine poison, as the result of eat
ing ice cream believed to have been
made in copper cans. The festival was
attended by several hundred people
from many small towns adjacent to
Griggstown. Most of these towns are
without physicians or drug stores, and
there was intense suffering among a
great number of people during Thurs
day for want of proper medical at
tendance. The Somerville druggists
were called up after midnight and kept
busy until daylight, filling prescrip-
tions for the victims in the country
towns.
At Bellemead and Harlingen twenty
five people, who had driven twelve
miles to the festival, were taken ill
on their way home, and experienced
great suffering. Among the sufferers
We're Charles Howell Cook, a wealthy
manufacturer of Trenton, and five ot
his family. The Cook family coach
man was obliged to drive sixteen miles
to the nearest drug store before the
sufferings of the family could be alle-
Waited. No fatalities are reported as
the result of the poisoning.

SHE WON THE NEW WAIST.
Plucky Maine Girl Climbs Chimney
Ladder When the Bows Refused.

Bangor Me-, Aug. 19.-Miss Dione
Polliot, a pretty 17-year-old French
girl, living in South Brewer, yesterday
AFTERNOON astonished the village by a
teat OF daring that had not been ac-
complished by any of the men or boys
around the mills there. A chimney,
lI3 feet high, has recently been erect
ed by the Eastern Manufacturing COM
pany, and when the masons took down
the staging the only means left for
reaching the top was a slim iron lad
der. up which the village ,Soys have
not yet dared to climb morS than half
way. although a reward of 81 has
awaited the first who would ascend to
the top.
Miss Polliot is not only one of the
prettiest girls in South Brewer but also
one of the spunkiest, and she made
fun of the mill boys for their tmidity.
"Poohl" she said, II could climb up
there myself"
The mill superintendent heard her
boast, and offered $40 to the first wo-
man who would accomplish the feat.
"I'll take you up on that" said Miss
Polliot, and when most of the men
had left the mill yard she came down
in bicycle suit and mounted the lad
der Her mother heard of what the
girl was doing and ran to the mill
yard, shrieking to DiOne to come
down, that she would be killed, etc.,
but Dione was then half way to the
top, her long hair flying in the wind
and the men and boys cheering her
on. The mother knelt down in the
yard and prayed loudly to the saints
to preserve her daughter from harm,
and the crowd maintained a respectful
silence.
Miss Polliot kept climbing briskly up
the little iron ladder, never once look
ing down, and presently. with little
spring, she grasped the top rung OF
the ladder and landed fairly on the
big stone that surmounts the tall
chimney. The crowd Cheered, and
| then, arranging her draperes, she
came slowly down. When she reached
the ground she was clasped hysteric-
ally by her mother, and the superin-
tendent handed over the ten-dol!ar
bill, saying that Dione was the best
| girl in Brewer and that she deserved
| the best man there for a husband.
Don't want any husband" answered
Dione. Il just want to get me a new
! white flannel waist"

BAD WATER AT BALTIMORE
City Suffers from Drouth-Many
Deaths from Typhoid Fever.

Baltimore, Aug. 19.-Heat and ty-
phoid fever are making ravages in
Baltimore. The fever epidemic Is
largely due to bad drinking water
which in turn is the result of the dry
hot weather. The health commits
sioner has issued orders to the citi-
zens to boil all drinking water This
city has a good supply of water, and
the impurity of the water now is
caused by the dryness in the country,
and the springs in consequence becom-
ing contaminated. Many victims of
typhoid fever are persons returning
from outings in the country. where
they drank impure well water. Some
of the boarding houses in the Blue
Ridge mountains will have to close for
lack Of water. Thousands of springs
and wells are dry. Typhoid fever is
prevalent at Hagerstown and other
towns on the mountains or in the val
ley, which generally have a high rec
ord for health.
There were fifty cases of typhoid
fever and nine deaths from the dis
ease reported in Baltimore this week.
The last two weeks have been the
hottest known in Baltimore. Forty
three deaths from sunstroke have oc-
CURED in seven days. Many more
deaths, chiefly those of infants are
traceable to the intolerable heat. The
big vegetable truck farms are ruined
by the drouth. In some sections. bar
ring n few slight showers, no rain has
fallen for two months, while for thr-
ty days or more the heat on the sun
parched fields has ranged from 100 to
13O degrees. For two weeks the tenn
perature in this city has been over
80 degrees, and for five days near
100 degrees.

The Iron Market.

Somewhat better conditions can be
noted in the iron market. There is
more disposition to buy. and the fact
which we have always insisted on that
large volume of business was in
sight as soon as price became settled
is beginning to be manifest. This is
more the case just now with finished
products than with pig from and steel
billets, but the movement involves one
in raw materials little later, as soon
as stocks begin to diminish.

The International Correspondence
Schools have had an air brake in
struction car added to their equipment,
which arrived in the city on Saturday,
and it is now sidetracked near the
Delaware and Hudson depot, where it

The car is equipped with the air

of fifty cars, so arranged that the
most inexperienced person can readily
comprehend its construction. The car
is in charge of Messrs. Mitchell, Saw

ANTI-QUAYITES WIN.

Gettysburg, Aug, 10,-The Adams Re-

very quietly last evening. The only
contest was in the Second ward of Get
tysburg, where John Slentz, eX-chief
clerk in the postoiIice, but now un-
popular with the Quay men. and j. w.
Garlach, formerly "A Wanamaker man,
were elected as delegates over ex-
Representative w. II. Upton and Pro-
fessor John A. Hines, both strongly
anti-Quay men. This contest seems
to have been a personal matter be-
tween some of the Quay men and
Upton men.

The Engineering and Mining Jour
nails weekly review of trade has this
to say of the anthracite conditions:
"The market for hard coal dn the
west shows little Improvement yet,
either at Duluth or in Chicago terri
tory. Receipts at upper lake ports
continue rather light. though the
freight from Buffalo to Duluth is
down to Csc. There is, however,
pretty good movement from the mines.
Some of this coal is going to lower
lake ports, but the bulk of the move
ment is to inland points in the east
Central states.
In spite of the threatened general
strike, buyers at seaboard points seem
in no hurry to lay in coal. Supplies
at Boston are reported none too good,
but buyers there, as at New York and
Philadelphia, have become SO used to
waiting as long as possible that .the
lesson they received last year has
apparently had little effect. Trade
about New York harbor Is very quiet
indeed.
The labor organizers have held their
convention and named the supposed
grievances OF the miners and made
their demand for recognition. 1t is not
likely that many of the large produc-
ers will be represented at the proposed
joint convention, to be held on the
9th. 1t Is even rumored that but one
operator of any prominence is likely
to attend. The statement of grievances
as published contains many inaccura-
cies and half truths.
To compare the prices paid for hand
mining in the bituminous region with
those in the anthracite fields is, TO
say the least, unfair, inasmuch as a
large part OF the output of the GEN.
trail bituminous field is machine mined
and machines are unknown in anthra-
cite mines. The demand for increased
wages rests on an equally unsubstan-
tlal bases. II is evident, however, that
there are powerful interests at work
and the more conservative men who
have known the miseries of a pro-
longed strike, may be unable to hold
back the young and hot-headed

Pittsburg, Aug. 19.-P. C. Knox, a

record was made in 1856 by Geers

held on the horses, and the big ma

COAL TRADE is DULL.
Something Seems to Be Wanting to
Stimulate 1t.

Philadelphia, Aug, 19.-Thc Ledger
tomorrow will say in its coal article:
The anthracite coal trade has had
new topic of discussion for several
days past in the labor troubles. The
miners convention at Hazleton has
specified various grievances and has
invited the operators and coal COM
panies to a conference on the subject
Aug. 81. The impression in the trade
seems to be that the operators will
not attend a conference, Hence there
are differences that a strike may re-
suit.
The coal trade is very duh and some
thing seems to be wanting to stimulate
demand and confirm prices and this
may be the opportune method, but only

pected to be about 1000, 900 tons, bring
