lature to succeed the late Senator Sew

Mr.. Dryden on the nineteenth ballot

ed States Attorney General John W..
Griggs. Congre ssman Gardner, ex-
Sheriff David Baird, of Camden, and
Barker Gunmere, of Mercer, were also
in the field, and while they received
fair amount of support in the early bal
loting, it was at no time doubted that
the contest was between Messrs. Dry

Leans have majority on joint ballot
of As, which assures the election of Mr..

MINE DUST EXPLODRS
Awful Loss of Life as Result In
an Iowa Colliery.
Twenty-One Miners Are Killed and
Eight Seriously Intured-Piti-
full scenes mt Mouth of
the Mine.

Oskaloosa, Ia, Jan. as A bad mine
explosion occurred at noon Friday at
Lost Creek, ten miles southeast of Os-
kaloosa and three miles north of Ed
dyville. AS a result 81 dead are in an
improvised morgue and eight wound
ed are in temporary hospital.

The Explosion.
The explosion occurred at the noon
hour and was what is known as
dust explosion. The miners had just
fired their usual noon shots, one of
which proved to be fizzle. The burning
powder ignited the gas and the explo-
sion followed. Smoke and debris were
blown out of the shaft 200 feet high.
Part of the top works were torn away
and fans and cages were partially
wrecked This made the work of res
cue very slow, and it was three o'clock
before volunteer parties dared to ven
ture into the east entry, where the ex-
plosion occurred.
A Terrible Sight,
When they fought their way in hor-
injured were terribly burned and mutt
lated, some of them almost beyond rec
ignition. Fire, which at first was
feared would prove destructive to the
entire mine, had broken out. and this
added terror to the spectacle. The
flames wer finally controlled, and aft
err several of the rescue party had sue
cumbed to the fumes all of the dead
were found and carried to the top Of
the shaft. At the time of the explo-
sion more than 100 men were in the
mines, but all of those except in the
east entry escaped with only slight in
jury. The total property damage will
be about $4,000. 1t was nearly six
o'clock in the evening when the last of
the dead was taken out. an5the scenesl
of anguish among the families of the
men were most pitiful. Nearly all of
the men were married and leave fam
lilies in poor circumstances. The mine

Bowery Resorts Raided.

New York, Jan. 25.--A raid of I'M
usual proportions was made by nearly
100 policemen on the Bowery Friday
night. Several notorious resorts were
closed and 80 prisoners locked up. The
large number of policemen on the
scene prevented any outbreak of vio-
lence, and there was little difficulty in
getting the prisoners to police sta
ton. The raids foreshadow the doom
of the Bowery, for they marked the
preliminary step In the wholesale
cleaning of that somewhat famous
thoroughfare. In nearly every raid

New York, Jan. 25.-The verdict OF
the coroner's jury at the inquest into
the deaths of the II victims of the
New York Central tunnel disaster re-
turned late Friday was that the
danger signal at Fifty-ninth street
was properly set; that Engineer
Wisker could not see the signal on
account of the smoke and steam, and
that the officials of the road were re-
sponsible, because for ten years past
engineers have complained of the ex-
listing conditions in the tunnel and
the officials have done nothing ~

most graciously received by the Pope,
and the two are said TO have swapped

best of health. When quite a boy he
entered the Confederate army and at the
battle of Malvern Hill was shot through
both lungs. He was removed from the
battle field to the dwelling house of
some person who lived near by, and the
doctor came and examined the wound and
did all he could for him and left to at
tend 10 others in like condition. Soon
after the doctor left Colonel Andrews
called his landlady and told her that he
was hungry and desired something to
eat, The lady stepped to the front
porch where the doctor had fingered and
told him what his patient said. The
room in which Colonel Andrews was
lying was situated next to the porch
where he could hear the conversation
between the landlady and the doctor
The doctor told the landlady to give
Colonel Andrews anything and every
thing that he wanted to eat, that it
would not hurt him. as he would be dead
by the next morning. Colonel Andrews
heard all of this conversation and when

The Santiago Sea Fight.

To the Editor: The Santiago sea fight
is likely to be the most memorable of all
sea fights. 1t is the only one in all history
where an absent officer claims all the
glory and has actually received the
lions share of tho prize money.
Copenhagen was a great naval battle
won by the English in 1901 Sir Hyde
Parker was in command of the English
fleet Thinking the odds too great he
signalled to cease firing and retired.
Nelson, second in command, had
previously lost one eye in battle. He
remarked that he could not see that
damned signal and kept his own signal
for closer battle still flying. The Eng
fish won great victory and history has
given the glory to Nelson Yet Parker
was actually present and shared in the
fight at some personal danger.
lena AND AUERsTADT.
On the day that Napoleon won
the brilliant and decisive victory
of lena. Marshall Davoust at
Auerstadt won great victory over the
Duke of Brunswick who had more than
twice the number of Davoust's troops
Davoust's operations were part of

Napoleon claimed no part of the credit
of the victory but gave praise and honor
without stint to Davoust and his COM
radcs.
FORREST AND STEPHEN ID. LEE.
In 1864 the Federals sent out numer-
Gus and we'll equipped force to destroy
Forrest and his command. Major Cen
cral Stephen ID. Lee was the senior Of
ficer present with the Confederate forces.
Regarding the odds as too great to fight
successfully Lee retired before the Yanks
until he reached point on the railroad
leading to Mobile He took the train for
Mobile to bring up Teinforcements. As
soon as Lee was safely out of hearing
Forrest attacked the enemy with his
whole force and utterly routed them
The enemy made no decided stop until
they reached Memphis Neither General
Lee nor his friends ever claimed any
part of the credit for this victory The
circumstances are much alike. Lee was
absent to get reinforcements. Sampson
was absent holding conference with
Shaftcr. Neither of them took any part
in the battle. Lee was too honest to
claim what belonged to others.

half of industrial education, one of his
former University pupils and a promising
young lawyer, interrupted him, while
speaking, with the following question:
Doctor, a few years ago you were
stirring up the people in behalf of Uni

young men. myself among the number,
persuaded by your eloquence, graduated
from the University and entered the
learned profession. But now, you are

great means of salvation. Were you
right then or now?'' 81 was right both

The Doctor, although a good disciple
marian, is a great friend of young men
and is especially appreciative of student
jokes, pranks and wit. This quality
added to his enthusiasm, enabled him to
fill to overlooking the University and is
rapidly making the North Carolina Agri-
cultural and Mechanical College one of
the most popular in the South. The
Doctor admires smartness and is always
ready ito give and take. On one of
his rounds of the college buildings a few
weeks ago he entered a room whose in
mates. with several visitors. were intent
upon the forbidden game of poker. The
table was picturesque with "chips." It
was too late to hide and so by instinct.
