ATTACKED BY
CRAZY CONVICT

Trenton, N. j., May 21.-Jacob
Hunsinger, a deputy keeper at the
State Prison, is suffering from a
deep wound in the forehead received
at the hands of an insane convict,
who struck him with a stone tied up
in a handkerchief.
The assault occurred in hall No.
8, which is filled with the most des-
perate characters, some of whom
become violently insane. Hun
singer was left alone last night with
the crowd, and one of them stealth
lily stole up behind him, and. PIN
ioning his arms, demanded the keys.
Hunsinger fought the man and tried
to throw the keys out of the win
dow, but before he could accom-
plish his purpose another convict
dealt him a fearful blow with a
stone wrapped in handkerchief.
Hunsinger's forehead was laid
open by the blow and he was dazed.
He would probably havefared much
worse had it not been for the inter-
ference of Murdoff, who attacked
Hunsinger's assailant.
As soon as Murdoff mixed up with
the maniac the 25 and 80 inmates
engaged in rough and tumble
fight, which was only stopped when
a large force Of attendants arrived
on the scene.
Hunsinger managed to get to the
attendants room, where he tainted.
1t is, claimed by the keepers that
their number is out Of proportion to
the number of inmates, and their
lives are in constant jeopardy as a

Mr. Fields Credit Good.

The credit OF William M. Field is
better than that of the government
or at least that is what a telephone
girl thought about the matter.
On Saturday evening last Sscre-
tary Of the Treasury, Leslie NJ.
Shaw. who was visiting Mr.. Field,
desired to talk over the long dis
tanee telephone to the head Of one
OF the treasury departments in
Washington. The telephone girl
asked to whom it was to be
charged, and Mr.. Shaw told her to
the Secretary of the Treasury.
She replied that it could not be
done, and Mr.. Shaw replied that it
could be done. and Mr.. Shaw
replied: oh, we'll. charge it to the
United States Treasury Depart
ment.'
The girl replied that the call
could not be so charged and then
the secretary said: "Will you
charge it to Mr.. Fleld?"
"Certainly," replied the girl,
and The secretary got the NUM- ber
Mr.. Shaw thought the affair good
Joke, and so do Mr.. Field and his
friends.

Why the Democrats Lost their Majority.
Editor of the REPUBLICAN,:
Sir:-The main reason is the Dem
ocrats have not had a leader worth
talking about since the death of
Jesse Sharp, who was man Of
sound Judgment and great influence.
He was assisted by such able and
influential men as Caleb P. johnson,
editor of the Delaware Gazette,
sound and fearless Democratic news
paper. What Democratic paper is
there in this city now9 Who will
answer The so-called leaders of
to-day are too mean and selfish to
support a Democratic paper. Office
and Doodle is what they are after.
The Democrats Of Delaware should
have nominated and elected Caleb
P. johnson, Governor, say in 1868,
and after his term expired, nomina-
ted and elected him to Congress.
He is able, honest and deserving of
any office at the hands of the Demo-
Gratis. The aged veteran still lives
and he well knows the selfish poll
ticians have no more gratitude than
an old sheep. I will give other rea-
sons soon. E. B. FRAZER.

Slight Eruption on Sept. 3.

ST. THOMAS, d. w. l., Sept. 6.-Advices
from the Island of st. Vincent report that
a slight eruption of the Souffriere volcano
occurred at noon Of Sept. 3. The outbreak
was accompanied by rumblings and caused
an exodus of the population from George
town and Chateau Belaire. On the 4th,
at half-past in the morning. and again at
10 o'clock last night, loud noises resembling
thunder were heard. These noises were
accompanied by electrical discharges from
La Souffriere, which continued until l
o'clock in the morning, when continuous
roar began, lasting until o'clock This
was followed by murmuring sound which
was heard until in the morning. In
short time the heavens were obscured by
dust or smoke and the scene was something
fearful Nobody slept at all during the
night. No dust, the advices say, has yet
fallen at Kingstown or Georgetown, but
the atmosphere has hazy look. Dust and
pebbles fell at Barronollie at o'clock in
the afternoon of Sept. 4.
Reports from Chateau Bellaire are to the
effect that there has been heavy fall of
sand there and that the arrow root cult
walton on Sharpe, Petit Borde and Rich
mond Vale estates has been destroyed
by the sand. No deaths have been re-
ported.

CARIB COUNTRY IN RUINS
AWE-INsPIRING SCENE CREATED BY
ELECTRIC-LIKE FLASHES.
Panic Among the PeopIe-NO Loss of
Life Reported-Cable Between st.
Lucia and kingstown Broken.

ST. LUCIA, British West Indies, Sept.
6.-The cable between here and st. Vim
cent island is broken. Advices from
Kingstown, by steamer. under date of
Sept. 4, say: "An appalling phenomenon
was witnessed here last night. 1t lasted
from .. m. to o'clock this morning. A
dreadful eruption of the Souffriere volcano
snveloped this whole island in cloud of
smoke. AT IL o'clock this morning the
atmosphere is still unsettled, but the erup-
ton is apparently subsiding. The sun is
obscured and oppressive heat prevails. The
sea is slightly agitated. Sand has fallen
ten miles from the crater. No sand has
fallen here.
Later advices from Kingstown. received
to-day, say: AN official who returned here
to-day Thursday found that Chateau Bel
laire was safe. Only a small quantity of
sand and stone fell there. An adjacent es-
tate: Fitzhughes, suffered greatly. all culti-
walton being destroyed. The parish is being
evacuated. There was no loss of life.
Georgetown is also safe. No one ventured
within the fire zone. the Souffriere still be-
ing in eruption. The destruction of the
Carib country is presumably completed.
The eruption of Wednesday was longer in
duration and more violent in action than
even the first dire outburst of May Z. With
a haunting recollection of the fate of st.
Pierre, Martinique, and the last disaster
here, the people converged on Kingstown,
and ran to and fro, seeking the safest
shelters from the threatening electric cloud
spreading over the hills toward the town,
while shocks of earthquake, though not
severe, increased the panic. At o'clock
in the morning loud, rapid explosions were
mingled with the continuous terrible roar,
and the zimmerman darkness changed into
a constantly glimmering armament, IL
lumined by forked lightning, balls of fire
ascending from the crater and bursting into
meteor-like showers. Such an awe-inspir-
ing scene the widest flights of fancy could
not have imagined. This lasted until
in the morning. The rumor that a tidal
wave was expected caused increased agi-
tation, and hundreds of people fed into
the hills adjoining the town. Superheated
clouds rose to an immense height and rain
clouds below sent down two showers. At
6 a. m. silver clouds began issuing from
the crater and throughout the day they
moved slowly northward The heat was
abnormal and there were renewed indica-
lions of a further outbreak of the volcano
Last night "wednesday there were un-
mistakable signs of Mont Pelee MAR
tinique) being in eruption simultaneously
with the Souffriere distinct electric flashes
being observed on the northwestern hori-
Zon."

ISLAND or MARTINIQUE.
It's Evacuation Has Not Yet Been De-
cided on by the Government.

PARIS, Sept GA correspondent of the
Associated Press learns that neither the
partial, nor the total. evacuation Of Island
of Martinique has been decided upon The
question has not even been considered by the
government. The only instructions sent to
the Governor which may have given rise to
the report are directions to avoid a con-
glomeration at Fort de France by the dis
tribution of the fugitives in the southern
communes. The government will shortly
again send to Martinique Professor lie
Croix, who was the head of the last scien-
tific mission, TO establish a permanent OBJ
servatiOn station on the volcano Ii is
probable that several army and navy Of
hcers will be added to NJ. LIE Crooks new
mission.
The Temps prints an interview with Pro-
fessor lie Croix, who defends himself for
not having foreseen the new eruptions. He
says that a long, personal study of Mont
Pelee. extending from June % to July 81.
convinced him that all the eruptions large
or small, of the preceding three months had
been confined TO the narrow region extend
ing from lie Precheur to LIE Carbet south
west of the volcano. The region Just de-
vastated lies east, and there was no reason
July 81 to suppose that any new eruption
could work such devastation, as everything
led TO the belief that If one occurred IL
would be confined to the region already
devastated.

servation is that the reserves grasped the
situation quickly, especially in the hand
ling of the guns. To my mind, the prac-
tice of the entire crew In the use of bat
teries was distinctly valuable"

that the searchlights on shore were used
with success at Newport, but that at

almost failed in their work, while the glare
