EDITORIAL PARAGRAPHS.

The usurping Constitutional Convention
will re-assemble today to proclaim its
ukase.
Vegetarianism is growing in popularity
since meats have become so expensive.
There is no doubt that it will greatly bene-
fit the general health of the country.
1t is said-an effort will be made to get
the soft coal miners throughout the
United States to go Oh a strike out of
sympathy for the anthracite coal miners
who are now on strike. This would be
very foolish thing for the bituminous coal
miners TO do.
The past two weeks have witnessed a
great many dreadful catastrophes. They
began with the volcanic eruptions in the
Windward Islands. Then came cal
amities by tornadoes, floods, fires, and
mine explosions. Many thousands OF
lives have been destroyed and much valu.
able property swept away.
1t seems that there is no Democrat in
the Ninth Congressional District brave
enough to tackle w. F. Rhea at primary
for the nomination for Congress. We
reckon they believe that with w. d.
Smith, the architect Of the 'Scott County
Ballot, running things for Rhea, there
would be no chance to defeat him at a
primary. Perhaps they are wise in that
conclusion.
The meetings that have been gotten up
in different counties Of the State to instruct
the Constitutional Convention in favor of
proclaiming the new Constitution have
been ridiculous affairs. Not one in twgn-
ty of the white voters of the State have
been heard from in these meetings. They
will be used, however, for the justification
of the most perfdious act ever .done in
American politics.

MANY NLLEDBY TORNADO.
Town of Goliad, Texas, Almost Entirely
Wiped Out.

HoUsToN, Tex, May 19.-The latest re-
ports from Goliad state that 9S persons
were killed and lO3 injured by the tornado
which passed over that place yesterday.
The property loss in that city and sur
rounding country will probably reach $500,
600. The city was swept from end to end
and l50 stores and residences were de-
stroyed, many Of which cannot be re-
paired.
There is only one telegraph wire work
ing into Goliad and owing to the crush of
official business it is impossible to obtain a
list of the dead and injured at an early
hour tonight. The tornado which was
preceded by a terrific downpour of hail
lasted only few minutes. The hailstorm
drove the people into their houses where
they were caught like rats in trap and
the death.dealing wind came upon them
with terrific force, leaving everything in
its path The tornado swept an area 25O

half, Houses collapsed as if built of card
board, covering the dead and injured with
debris, which necessarily makes the work
of rescue slow. People aocked to town
from all parts of the surrounding country.
Many of them had relatives in the city.
The work of rescue has been carried on
all day and the funeral of several of the
victims took place this afternoon. The
supply of coffins has been replenished.
Other towns and a large force of labor
ers are still at work digging graves for
many of the unfortunate victims.
The citizens have perfected religious
organization and everything is conducted
in an orderly manner, the work of caring
for the dead and injured now being on a
systematic basis. The storm wrought Sc
we're havoc to the surrounding country but
no lives are reported lost. Governor
Sayers today issued an appeal to the may
ors of all cities of 5000 population and
over in the State of Texas, asking them to
send food to Goliad and to raise funds for
the sufferers.

A SENSATION AT MADRID
Caused by the Effort of a Crank to
Obtain Audience with the King.

, MADRID, May 1.-THE splendid cere-
monies in connections with the attaining
of his majority by King Alfonso today,
we're attended by an incident which, while
insignificant in itself, for the moment
I Gated considerable excitement among
t-ose who witnessed it, and in the Cham
Der of Deputies, where the story, first ar
rived, in a more sensational form than the
facts warranted.
1t appears that just as the royal coach
emerged from the Plaza De Armas into
the square in front of the palace, amid
the sound of cannon, a young man among
the sight.seers behind the Gordon suddenly
pushed through the ranks of soldiers and
police and rushed toward the door of the
chariot with his hat in one hand and
holding outstretched in the other a
paper. Before he reached the door the
state lackeys and equerries hurried to the
scene and quickly overpowered him,
though not before the dlsturber had re-
ceyed a severe mauling.
The prisoner was taken to the guard
room of the palace where he was in
terrogated. The letter he had in his hand
proved TO be an address to the King
stating that the Infanta Maria Teresa,
who was with the King in the royal coach,
had promised him her hand, and begging
the King, as the brother of the lnfanta,
to accede to the marriage. The prisoner
was carefully searched and it was found
that he carried no weapon. His remarks
regarding the IDfanta Maria Teresa left no
doubt as to his mental condition.
The royal party reached the Chamber
of Deputies few minutes later, and the
King, ascending the throne, was greeted
with a tremendous ovation, which he
smilingly acknowledged.
King Alfonso at the time of the incident
showed no agitation, though his
mother and the Infanta Maria Teresa
were naturally alarmed for moment, but
were soon treasured. The crowd Of
thousands of people gathered in. the square
gave the King a great reception as the
coach moved on. Until the royal party
reached the Chamber Of Deputies nothing
was known by the spectators along the
rest of the route of the incident that had
just occurred, and perfect equanimity
prevailed.
Alfonso was most noticeable for his
demeanor during the ceremony Of taking
the oath.
DR.. j. L. NJ. Curry, the United States
envoy, who was well placed ahd able to
watch the proceedings closely, said after
wards that no one could lhave had an
inkling from the Kings manner that any
thing extraordinary was happening. King
Alfonso bowed graciously to those present
and bore himself with much manliness.
He delivered the oath with great distinct
ness and put considerable expression into
the words, acting throughout in an In
telligent and selfpossessed way.

THE MARTINIQUE HORROR.
The Excitement Calming DoWn-RelieT
Supplies Sufficient.

WASHINGTON, D. g., May l7.-Secretary
Moody today received the following cable
gram from Commander I. S. Mclean, OF
the Cincinnati:
est. LUCIA, May 17.-Excitement in
Martinique calming down. Many
refugees. not destitute or starving, but
frightened by appalling disaster at st.
Pierre, and grave but less serious damages
in the more northern portion OF the
island, were leaving estates and sections
which had not suffered. Many cases OF
pillaging in those districts. Government
taking action to stop it. In some north
ern districts many cattle may die because
of volcanic dust over vegetation. A few
Good rains would cure much of this con-
dition. Today visited and explored ruins
of United States and British conusulates
at st. Pierre. Found some portions OF
the charred remains of bodies. The Po'
tomac has returned to Fort De France
Reports disaster at st. Vincent very serl'
Gus. believe the volcanic conditions are
worse and in some respects the conditions
of living are as bad or worse than Mar
Unique"
Washington, May. Secretary Hay has
received cabegram from United States
Consul Ayme, at Fort De France, an.
roure;ag that the relief supplies now
afoat are quite sufficient for the Marti-
nioue sufferers, and suggesting that while
st. Vincent may be in need, the public
subscriptions IN the United States should
cease at once.
The President requested the Secretaries
of War and of the Navy to ask the officers
of their respective departments now Oh
relief duty in the West Indies to report
Immediately their opinion as to the ne.
cessities of the inhabitants Of the afflicted
islands.

PlrrsBuRe, Pa, May 2O.-A careful and
systematic search for the dead and injured
in the Sheraden horror of yesterday re-
veals tonight list of % dead and 2O2
injured.
The complete list of the injured may
never be known, as many were able to
get away without making known their
identity. a conservative estimate, made
by those thoroughly familiar with the
situation places the number more or less
seriously hurt at not less than 300.

Letter to las. W. Wall.
TdzeWeU Va.

Dear Sir: A painter wants to know what
his paint is made of. That's all right:
he's welcome.
Devoe is whitehead and white'zinc
ground together in linseed oil. There is
nothing else in it, but color and turpen'
tine dryer. Our agent in your town has
the official State Chemists certificate OF
analysis certifying to that effect.
1t is the zinc and the grinding that
make it wear twice as long as lead and
oil mixed by hand.
