THERE ARE OTHER NATIONS,

H F aHgfT as 5 4
 We Are Beginning to Relize This Fact. . Up to a few years ago we, the people of the United States, thought we had the greatest country on earth (which we have), but we were so swollen by lyain and unjustifiable oyerestimation of ourselves that we did not give proper credit and consideration to other peo- pie. We looked upon ourselves as great beyond comparison in the exploits of war and the pursuits of peace, and mo- thing quite so much tickled our vanity and conceit as to sit and listen by the hour to politicians making the eagle scream and extolling our achievements as such as neaver had been and never could be rivaled in the world.
 But 8 very meritorious change has come over us. We have begun to exam line and compare oudselyes with other people, and we take no offence when we find that what we have done has been equaled and sometimes surpassed by the deedsSof quieter and less bostful nations.
 Japan has done in fifty years many things which it took us 200 years to do. Russia has constructed railroads through a stretch of territory far more extensive than the old Great American Desert, opened it to settlement and built big cities in it. But Russia did not claim to be the greatest nation on earth on hat account England is building a railroad through the entire length of Africa and she has developed millions of acres in the wilderness of that con- tinent, but she is no going into spasms iof self-praise over the matter. ,e These instances mentioned are only a few of the mighty things accomplished by nations other than the United States. Current history shows that we have not much more than shared in the general progress of mankind. Our material progress and properity have been rivaled in almost every particular elsewhere, while we have contributed only a small portian of the learned and entertaining books which have been written and of the engines and devices which have been invented for comfort and necessity of the human race during the last fifty years.--From the Kansas City Journal (Rep,)

Miners Fall TO Death and Reservoir
Bursts killing Seventeen Persons.
Thirty-fiye persons were killed
Wednesday in two terrible disasters in
the United States. eighteen in a Penn
sylvania coal mine and seventeen
through the breaking Of a water reser-
yoir in South Carolina
The mining accident occurred in one
of the shafts of the Delaware, Lacka-
wanna and Western Company's mines,
about eight miles south Of Wilkes
barre, at Nanticoke. When the men
started to work eighteen entered the
lowering machine. A few feet below
the surface the steel cable of the car
riage, connected with the hoisting en-
CINE, broke. Instantly the heavy car
shot downward with frightful velocity
and It and the men We're crushed at
the bottom of the shaft, several hun
dred feet below.
Frantic efforts We're made at once
to reach the men and rescue them if
any had survived. 1t was necessary
to construct temporary elevator,
however, and every one of the eigh-
teen miners was dead when their fell
low-w0rkers reached the bottom of the
shaft. Six feet of water was in the
bottom of the shaft and the men who
were not killed by the fall were drown
ed. The accident was caused by ma
chinery III the engine room going
wrong.
Details from the flightful disaster at
Winston Salem. S. G., where seventeen
persons are known to have been
drowned, are meager. bat it is be-
heved that many others lost their
lives. The Winston reservoir. stu
ated on tor of high hill, burst, and
the water swept down the valley with
terrific force, carrying everything be-
fore it,
Houses. trees, animals, human be-
ings, fences and crops were swept
away by the onrushing food Houses
Were crushed like eggshells; trees were
snapped off or pulled up by the roots.
There was no chance of escape by any
thing in the path Of the water.
The residents of the valley had no
warning of the approaching catastro-
phe, and men, women and children
were killed almost before they realized
what was happening.
The flood came down with such
force that many persons We're crushed
to death between the walls of their
homes The few who escaDed death in
this manner were unable to fight the
swirling, roaring water, and We're
drowned in their struggles

mine employees. sympathizing with the
engineers. walked ont quietly at mid
night, and the machinery for hosting
coal in every mine in the State ceased
running Efforts have been made by the
operators to man the pumping machinery
and keep the water from accommodating
The strike of the engineers, it is be-
leved, is but the beginning of the strug-
gie, although the operators declare they
will man the engines with non-union en-
gineers. They declare that the army Of
miners is not in sympathy with the strike
and that they viii return to work with
non-union men at the engines.
Already the coal dealers of Illinois are
predicting an increase in the prices of
soft coal, which, of course. will be reflect
ed in the price of anthracite. The coal
industry of Illinois was paralyzed by one
blow. The strike is not sanctioned by
the United Mine Workers of America.
The huge walkout entails the loss of
$4,000 a day in wages to the miners

Great Grain Crops of 1904.

From the governments latest figures
a corn yield of 2,464000000 bushels is
indicated for 1904, as compared with a
harvest of 2,244, 100000 bushels in 1908.
The corn crop never was larger than this
year except in 1902. when it was 2,523,-
100000 bushels. Wheat is placed at Doll
100000 bushels. as compared with 6I5,-
100000 for 1898, 74S,000,000 for 1901,
670,0000O0 for 1902. and 637 100000 for
1903, the only years which exceeded
1904's yield.
The oats crop for this year will reach
SS7,000,000 bushels, which is the biggest
harvest of that cereal ever gathered ex-
cept in 1902, when the crop was $751;
100000 bushels. Barley, with. 10000
600 bushels, breaks the record. Rye
27,000,000 bushels, has been beaten only
in 1901, 1902 and 1903, when there was
a slightly larger yield than this year S,
The $4,000, 000-bushel crop of buckwheat
goes ahead of all former figures. Po-
tatoes, with a yield of 305,000,O00 bush

INDIAN OUTBREAK.
Primitive Iowa MusqualSies Jealous of
Dog-eatinG Igorrotes.

Dog-eating lgorrotes.
1t has been reported to the Interior
Department at Washington that no more
typical example of the primitive Indian
is to be found in this country than the
MusGuakie tribe Of some 400 men. wom-
eli and children, who live right in the
center and heart of Iowa, one of the
most advanced States in the Union. Just
at present the Musquakies are very much
wrought up and jealous over the noto-
riety which has been given the lgorrote
tribes at the worlds fair on account Of
their dog-eating habit.
The chief of the Musquakies claims
that the Igorrotes are not the only saw
ages that enjoy dog as a tribal dish, that
the Musquakies have been pioneers in
the habit for centuries and that the
American people have never raved over
them.
With the Igorrote no female is permit
ted to partake of the dish, as it is deli
cacy for warriors only but when the
Musquakies have a feast on the reserva-
ton the women eat as much as do the
men. The Indians scarcely ever taste
OF beef, preferring pork, chicken, skunk
and dog meat Dogs are very numerous
on the reservation, being raised and fat
tened for feasts, dances, pow-wows and
other special occasions.

than other sensational rumors, believed
to be well founded, are in circulation.
DIR. F. w Alderman, father of Mrs.

in the crime as his daughter. He says
that she did not commit the deed with
out help and instructions. Attorney j..
A. Hindman, who had Mrs. Krauss
case in hand, did not know his client in
tended to plead guilty until he was called
to the court room ten minutes before
hand. He said he was in possession of
facts that convince him that Mrs krauss
was in consultation with some one who
instructed her in the crime. He asks
how would she know what kind of poi
son was in the KFauss drug store and
what kind of strychnine was on sale IN
the Logan drug store, where the poison
was purchased. Some one, he says, who
knew these facts must have told her.

MEDIUM REVEALS MURDER.
Spiritualists Claim Credit for Two Con-

Nebraska Spiritualists claim that it is
due to the revelations of trance me-
dunn that two murdercrs are now within
the walls of the State penitentiary The
two prisoners meant are Charles Hutch
irson, boy of 10, and his mother, a
woman of 30. THEOLOGY is sentenced to
twelve years Imprisonment and the wom-
an to ten years, both for the same crime,
the murder of Eli teasel, an old man
and their employer. Through the me-
dunn, it is said, Feasers body was found
buried in his farm. Portions of body
were found, evidence was gathered link
by link and then followed the arrest of
young Hutchinson and later his mother.
The strong circumstantial evidence
against them at the trial resulted in their
conviction. Both still maintain their in
