Bryan Appeals to Populists.

Lincoln, Neb., December 21.-Mr.
Bryan makes strong plea in this week 8
Commoner for the continuance of fusion
between Populists and Democrats. Only
two question separate them now, he
says, the redeemability of greenbacks
and the governments ownership of rail
roads. United effort to save the green
backs is necessary now and differences
can be settled later. He says:
"The issues which brought the reform
parties together have not been settled
and are not likely to be settled by the
Republican party. That cooperation
mnst continue is certain, the only ques-
tion is whether it shall be corporation
between individuals under one organiza-
ton. This 10 question which must be
determined largely by local conditions.
If the Populists were to JOIN tho Dem.-
cratic party they would strenk then the
reform element in that party and assist
in preventing the reputation of the
principles of the K'nsas City platform.
On tho other hand, where the Populist
party is strong as compared with the
Democratic party, it may be wiser to
cooperate than to attempt the amalga-
nation Of the parties"

Ten Men Killed by Explosion.

Pittsburg, December 19.-By an ex.
plosion Of gas in the Soho furnace OF
Jones & Laughlin, near Brady's street,
this city, at z O'Clock this morning ten
men were burned to death and probably
twenty others more or less injured. The
damage to the plant will amount to
$4,000. The explosion occurred in one
of the big blast furnaces. The men
were - work at the top of the furnace
over 120 feet from the ground. They
were employed as filters and were Just
getting ready to quit work, being mem
bers OF the night shift, when the gas
which accumulated in the furnace ex-
ploded and tons Of molten metal, cinders
and Stag were thrown over the unfortp-
nate men on the top of the structure.
When the gas let go panic ensued on
tho small platform about the top. The
men made rush for tho elevator, but it
had gone d. 'wn and there was no escape.
To jump meant death and to remain on
the platform was just as certain doom.
The tons Of molten metal and flames fell
apon them and burned ten men to death.
Their bodies dropped to the roof of the
mill 30 feet below, every bone broken
and an unacceptable mass of human
flesh. Hurry calls were sent to the
police and morgue. Patrols from all
sections arrived before O'Clock and the
morgue wagon was with them. The
bodies of some of the dead and many of
the wounded were strewn about the
yard beneath the surface, some of the
dead having fallen from the slippery
roof to the ground.
The cries of the injured broke the
stiffness which had spread over the
place when the fury of the explosion and
fire had abated.
To remove tho dead from the roof of
the mill it was found necessary to get
nnl nd loI Al.
carried the burned, charred and mis-
shapen masses of humanity to the morgue
wagon and placed them in it. When the
dead were removed the injured were
then looked after In all parts of the
yard and beneath the furnace injured
were found, They were hurried to the
Mercy and other hospitals.

Shoots Three Negroes.

Weloh, w. Va, December 21.--Wayne
Demon, an 1s-year-old boy, shot three
negroes to death in saloon at the min
ing town of Davy, this county, yesterday
evening. 1t was pay day at The Davy
mines and the negroes had begun their
holiday celebrations. Drunkenness was
visible on every hand, and when about q
dozen of the blocks entered Eugene
Dyes saloon, revolvers in hand, and
demanded that all tho whites within re-
tire the trouble began. The bartender
stepped into an adjoining room for his
pistol and all the other whites save
Demon made run to get away. Demon
pulled his revolver and shot three of the
negroes to death. The others fairly fell
over one another in getting away. The
dead arei Lem Boolon, 'Frick" Watts
and Harry Good, all residents Of the
coal fields. In the excitement Demon,
whose home is iu Cattleaburg, KY, left
the saloon by rear door and up to a
late hour to night had not been captured.
In fact, but very little effort la being
made to apprehend him. He is an
assistant bookkeeper of Cole, Crane &c
Co., of Cincinnati, who are engaged ex-
tensively in timbering in this country.
Demon was awaiting the arrival of a
train to go to his home to spend the
holidays.

Judicial Vacancies.

Some very important elections will be
had by the Legislature at the coming
session. Among others the judicial cleo
tions will probably create the greatest
interest. There are several such posi-
tions to be filed. The term of Associate
Justice Jones will expire, and successor
will be chosen to succeed him. Judge
Jones will have no opposition and will
likely be unanimously reelected.
The following Circuit Judges will also
have their terms to expire at the end Of
the year: Buchanan, Benet, Watts, Aid
rich, Gage and Klugh. The first two win
not stand for reelection, and thero are
many lawyers In their respective circuits
who would not mind being selected. So
far as known none of the other circuit
Judges will have opposition.

Daring Deeds Of College Students.

The Abbeville Medium recently pub
lished the following interesting reminis-
cence:
"The State contained graphic ac-
count of the perilous feat of workman
on the State House. He climbed over
the. dome, drawing himself up, hand
over hand, by a rope. Those who saw
him shuddered, but he was 80 self-pos-
sessed that he did not take his pipe out
of his mouth.
This feat recalls to mind that some
thing as daring was done at Due Wost
when we were boy. The franc work
of the observatory was up, and it reached
far above the tallest trees. Pink Davis,
a young student from Abbeville, bro.
ther of Mrs. III. Il. Tusten, of this city,
climbed up to the top of the frame work
and stood straight up on q narrow plank
for q time to show the boys below that
such thing could be done.
"a few years after the building was
completed some young fellows wBra in
| the observatory, and in spirit of mis-
chief locked one of their number out and
left him, This made but little difference
to him, for he climbed over the banis-
ters, got hold of the lightning rod and
let himself down in that way, reaching
the ground before the other boys did.
This adventurous boy is now the Hon.
Joseph j. Darlington, tho distinguished
lawyer of Washington CITY,"

Death Of Mr. Hrsh McElsone, pcrhaps ths
Oldest Citizen in tho state.

Columbia, December 2o-Mr. Hugh
McElrone died this morning at 8 O'Clock
at his residence, corner Of Marion and
Lumber streets. Mr.. McElrone was dis.
tipguished not only on account of his
probity of character and general good
fellowship and patriotism, but from the
fact that he had lived far beyond the
span of life allotted to man. He was
born In the county of Tyrone, ireland,
on November 2, 17eS, and was conse.
queptly 103 years old. In his good old
age he had been participant in
events during the portion of three
centuries, life not usually attained
In the existence Of any mau. But
during his long career he made an
enyiable reputation for honesty and
strict adherence To the Golden Rule, and
his example might well be followed.
He came to this country while vet q
young man and settled In Columbia in
1641. He was too old to enlist in the
Confederate service during the war,
though his sympathies were naturally
with that of the people of his State.
Among the relatives who survive Mr..
MoElrone il a brother, Mr.. John NOEL
rome, of Albany, N. z, who is now go
years old.

President Endorses the Appalachian Park.

Roosevelt to- day sent to Congress a mes.
sage strongly commencing the plan for
a national forest reserve in the Southern
Appalachian region. The letter accom-
panied the report of the Secretary OF
Agriculture on the subject. The Presi-
dent states that the facts ascertained set
forth an economic need of prime impor-
tance to the South, and hence to the ma
ton as whole, and they point to the
necessity of protecting, through wise
use, mountain region whose influence
flows far behind its borders with the
waters of tho rivers to which 1t gives
rise. After referring to the marvellous
variety and richness of the growth of
this region, the President says it is un-
surpassed for purpoSe of hard wood
reserve and he earnestly commepds the
project to Congress.
