Terrific brutality marked the treat
ment Of men who didn't obey orders.
Holm and two miners stayed away
from work one day. A young engi-
neer advised them to get to the mines
at once. They demurred and he gave
them ten minutes to change their
minds. Soon he returned with three
other men besides himself and the
cook. They disarmed one man Of
stick and Holm Of a coalpoker and
hammered them to their hearts con-
tent. Holm was knocked uncon-
scious and the others were as bodily

consciousness they were forced to

The following wise sayings are from
the pen Of A. r. Fish, the editor of
the car worker:
Some people are like those who ride
backwards in railway train-they
never see anything until after they
have gone past&ft.
The man who thinks he can be more
1ndependentout of the union is like
the man who jumped into the river to
get out of the rain.
A railroad man who doesn't appre-
ciate the benefits Of organization Is
like a fish who doesn't know that the

In arithmetic ten times one make
ten; in untonism, ten times one make
twenty and sometimes more.
The unorganized man doesn't count.
He is nothing when he ought to be
something. In fact, he is an optical
delusion.

st. Louis, July 5.-On the eve of
the democratic national convention.
the prospect is that Judge Alton B.
Parker of New York will be nominated.
Where week ago there was doubt. un-
certainty, sparring for position, parley
ing for time, fractional scheming and
manipulation to overtime the favorite,
1T is now the forgone conclusion that
the field will come in a poor second.
Not only does it appear that the con-
troll of the nomination for first place
will be in the hands of those democrats
who were in the minority in 1895 and
again in 1900, but that they will select
the nominees running mate and domi-
nate the platform on which the race
will be made.
In defiance of such handicaps as
were created by the ambitious friends

followings that divided the conserva-

Fireworks Exploded.

Tacoma, Wash. July 3. - The fire
works which were to have been set off
here on Monday evening in Wright
park as finishing touch to the big
Fourth of July celebration caught fire
from almost the first rocket that was
sent up and in an instant the entire
heap of explosives was flying in all dir
ections. About four dozen eight pound
rockets flew through the audience of
5000 persons, creating panic in which
many were injured. Others were struck
by the fiyinyexplosives, and it is esti-
mated that the as many as so were
more or less injured, one fatally.
Van Allen Smith, who was assisting
with the fireworks, stood his ground in
an effort to scatter the fire, and was
terribly burned. One arm was broken
by an explosion. 1t is believed he will
survive.
Miss Hattie Brakeman was struck
in the stomach by rocket and serious
ly injured. One child is reported to
have lost the sight of both eyes. j. n.
Davis chairman of the committee had
his right hand severely burned. Two
children of K. +. Squires who superin-
tended the firing of the explosives were
burned about the face.
About so children were lost in the
panic and the police were busy until a
late hour trying to restore them to their
parents.

Pendleton, Ore, July A terrific
wind and rain storm swept over this
section Sunday afternoon, doing very
heavy damage to the wheat crop and
to city property. The weather observer
reports two inches of rain. The Ore
gon Railroad & Navigation company's
tracks were washed out and the trains

No loss of life has yet been reported.

Much of the immense wheat crop of
Umatilla county is totally ruined, and
thousands of dollars damage was done
to city property. .
The damage to the wheat crop is
hard to estimate, as the extent of the
path of the storm is unknown.
Had the storm approached the city
from below instead of above, there
would probably have been another

Particulars.

Particulars of the wreck of the
Norge follow:
Early on the morning of last Tues
day, the Norge, which was out of her
course in heavy weather, ran on the
Rockall reef, which at distance looks
like ship under full sail The Norge
was quickly backed off, but the heavy
seas poured in through a rent in her
bows.
The emigrants, who were then await
ing breakfast below, ran on deck. The
hatchways were scarcely built for
these hundreds of souls and became
clogged.
The Norge quickly began to go down
by the rock. Eight boats were loaded
and the women and children were hur-
riedly put into them. Six of these,
boats smashed against the side of the
Norge and their helpless inmates were
caught by the heavy seas.
Three boat loads got safely away
from the side of the sinking ship and
many of the emigrants who were left
on board, Selling life belts, threw
themselves into the sea and were
drowned
Captain Gundell, so say the surviv-
ors, stood on the bridge of the doomed
vessel until it could be seen no more.
The Norge foundered suddenly and
some 600 terrified emigrants were
thrown into the water or drawn down
with the sinking ship. Those who
could swim tried to reach the boats,
but these were already too full and
their occupants beat off the drowning
wretches with oars.
The boats kept together for some
hours. Practically all of their occu-
pants were passengers and were not
used to handling such craft. The boat
occupied by the survivors and which
landed at Grimsby was life boat.
The fate of the other two boats is
unknown.

len rescue of those on the life boat
look place on the morning of June 20.
one OF the survivors said that when
he got on deck the Norge was half sub
merged and was rapidly getting lower
IN the water. Half mad with fright,
the survivors all struggled for places
IN the boats. They fought their way
10 the big life boat and an officer stow
ed away six women and a girl and
Iheh told the men to get in. The Of
ncer took charge and got the boat
away from the sinking Norge. Seeing
mat the boat was already overloaded,
the officer with great heroism jumped
INTO the water and tried to board an
other boat which was not so full. He
tailed and was drowned.
In the sea by this time was mass
or struggling men, women and chill
uren' gasping and choking from the eff
lects or the water. The boat rowed
ciear or these unfortunates and just as
she drew away the Norge went down.

Dowie Denied Nonsuit.

A motion for a nOnsuit in the case
of Hugh Craig against Elijah" John
Alexander Dowie for the recovery of
$1762 was denied yesterday by Judge
Murasky, and the case will be argued
this morning. Roscoe S. Gray. attor-
ney for the prophet, based his motion
for the nOnsuit on the grounds that
the loan was made to DOwie with the
expectation of its being paid from the
surplus receipts of the Grand Opera
house mission in 1883. or from re-
mittances from Australia 1t had not
been proven, he said. that there was
any surplus, any remittance, or that
Dowie was ever able to pay the Obli-
CATION. Mr.. Craig was on the stand
again for a brief cross-examination
and said that on other occasions he
had loaned DoWie 500 and S400, and
that the 1aens had been paid.
