A leading article on "Armies that

persons charged with various offenses,
to many Of whom no trial has been
granted is engaged in preparing a re-

He did not find cot, blanket or
female attendant in the prison, where
several hundred women are confined.
He says he cannot understand how
ouch place could have been tolerated
in a so-called civilized community. His
examination reveals a state of affairs
worse than anything yet written re-
garding Spanish mismanagement.
What Major Runcie has already
made known seems to astOnish the

MEXICO'S FATAL EARTHQUAKE.
In COlima Seven People Were Kille

In COlima Seven People Were Killed
and Much Property Wrecked.
City of Mexico, Jan. 22.--News is ar
irving from the interior points affect
ed by the earthquake Friday night and
Saturday morning. Much damage was
done to property in Guadalajara, and
the City of Colima, capital of the state
Of the same name, was the scene of
terrifying experiences, accompanied
with loss Of life, The City of Mexico
came off comparatively unscathed few
accidents occurring here, although
some adobe huts in the suburbs fell in
and one bridge was partly wrecked.
At Colima there was great consterna-
ton and people rushed into the streets,
some barely escaping with their lives.
Seven people were killed outright and
SO were injured and are being cared
for by local surgeons. 1t was reported
that the volcano burst into eruption,
but it now appears that the phenom-
enOn was confined to subterranean
manifestations. Local scientific men
believe that the earthquake travelled
from under the Pacific ocean. The
governor Of Colima has appointed a
commission to inspect the churches
and public edifices, while owners of
houses injured in the earthquake will
be compelled to put them in con-
dition Of security.

trial although their experience of
the past reminds them that their
adoption by Congress would lead
TO business prostration and the fl

The men who will greet Mr.. Bryan
are willing to sacrifice their inter-

and it behooves every intelligent
laborer to use his influence to open
their eyes so they will not again
commit industrial and financial
suicide. When intelligent men

Senstor Kenney, Lawyer Gray and
other leading Democrats can be
misled by Brya an, what hope can be

Two miles of country in the di-
rection of Ladysmith were gained
by General Warren's forces on
Sunday. The Beers stubbornly
resisted and retreated Just before
a hand-to-hand fight was forced on
the British. The ground is very
,ssult, as the fighting is all up
hill, but the British are steadily
advancing. The earliest reports
received told of renewal of Gem
eral Warren's battle of Saturday.
It is evident that on Sunday the
Beers were inferior in numbers in
every instance where actual fight
ing occurred and the three positions
We're yiel ded to the British without
any great loss on either side,
though the Boer fire at times be-
came very severe. The Lancashire
and Irish Brigades advanced stead
lily, the Beers finding it not Il good
time to take up such strong posi-
tons as they had atColenso, Storm
berg, Modder river and Magersfon-
tier, or even to bring up their big
guns. The British lost 279 non
commissioned officers and men.
General Warren is pushing on
steadily to the relief of Lady smith.

GRAND OPERA HOUSE.
MINSTRELs.


w. Fl. West Minstrels come to
the Opera House on Thursday even
ing. Modern minstrelsy does not
mean merely realistic reputation
of the plantation. It has assumed
an equal rank with the most pre-
tentious Of stage productions. 1t
means musical department, both
vocal and orchestral, worthy the
best of operatic organizations; an
olio of famous specially artists,
the superior of even the highest
grade vaudeville company; and
great finale of the most spectacular
nature in which stage science aided
by magnificent scenery make an
ensemble rivaling the most lavish
metropolitan productions of extra
vaganza. This but briefly and
markedly outlines what the public
expect of up-to-date minstrelsy and
gives only a faint idea of what
William Fl. West has been contend
