Twins Destinies Are Linked.

Daniel and James Wilmer, twin
brothers, OF Chester, Pa, who were
badly hurt in a collision between their
wagon and train, show a peculiar
tendency to share Sheir troubles. Since
childhood they have suffered the same
ills at the same time, and as soon as
one became i'll the other was stricken
with a sympathetic ailment. Daniel
fell during the winter and sprained his
arm. The same night James was
kicked in the abdomen by horse, and
laid up for week or so His latest
accident sives further belief to the as
sertion the brothers make-that they
will live and die together.

CAR N|CHOLAS'S PLAN
OF PEASANT REFORM
Conservative Legislation, the Draft
of Which Will Be Sent to
Local Committees Soon.
THREE POINTS RESERVED

ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. 17.-Minister of
the Interior Plehve has completed the draft
of the peasant code, or scheme, for the
peasant reforms ordered in the Cars re-
cent manifesto, and it probably will be
sent to the local committees throughout
the empire within few days.
Members of the nobility in each province
and district will be allowed to elect repre-
sentatives these committees, but the
zemstvos Cor elective provincial assemblies,
composed of landed proprietors and repre-
sentatives of artisans and peasants) will
be appointed by the Governors. The COM
mittee will be allowed freedom to discuss
the project and propose any change therein,
except on three points, which the Emperor
has reserved from discussion, namely, that
the peasant class must remain entirely
separate, legally, from the other classes
that the commune is to remain untouched
by legislation, and that the peasant lands
are to remain inalienable.
These points stamp the forthcoming legis-
lation as conservative in the main but the
present chaos is so great and so much
room is left for the arbitrary conduct of the
police and the local representatives of the
ministry Of the interior, as well as of the
peasant courts and administrative machin-
cry, that the communes, town meetings
and Liberals declare any codifcation would
be in the line of progress.
The ministerial project proposes to retain
Emperor did not include this among the
matters not sought to change. The EN-
peror regards the preservation of the peas
ant class, the retention OF the economic
commune and the inalienability of peasant
lands as necessary for the protection of the
peasants from exploitation.

FLAMES DESTROY ENTIRE
BLOCK IN HEART OF CITY
Wheeling Experiences Worst Fire
in It's History-Started from
Hot Box in News Plant.
EDITORS JUMP FOR LIFE

WHEELING, W. Va, Jan. lin one
of the most disastrous fires ever rexperienced
in this city an entire block in the heart
of the city's business district was tonight,
within the space of one hour reduced to
ruins, entailing a loss of nearly $4,000. The
fire originated i'm the boiler rooms of the
Wheeling Daily News and spread rapidly
entirely consuming the newspaper plant,
which was one of the finest and most COM
plete in the State, a wholesale liquor house
owned by Shaefer & Driehorst and the
extensive plant of the Locke Brothers
Shoe Company. Several other buildings
caught fire. but were saved by the prompt
work of the department and citizen vol
unteers. The entire department and re-
serves from neighboring cities were called
but the flames resisted all efforts and In a
short time the blazing buildings were a
total loss. The fire spread with such ra-
pidity that the employees of the News had
no chance to escape by the stairways, and
the night editor. Allen b. Smith. and his
assistant. r. NJ. Archer, were compelled
TO jump from the second story windoW into
the street. escaping with slight injuries
\ few moments afterward the six story
walls collapsed.
A hot box on the engine was the cause
of the fire. The proprietors Of the News
carried but little insurance. but the rest
OF the sufferers are well covered.

.PARKER'S BOOM IS IN
A STRONG EBB TIDE
Unexpected Political Effect of the
Democratic Committee Meet
ing at Washington.
TAGGART'S. GOOD TIME
Special to the indianapolis Journal.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 1.-THE political
effect produced by the meeting of the DEM
ocratic national committee is curious and
surprising. Aside from the sudden revela-
tion of the strength of the Hearst boom, the
main thing brought to light has been that
Judge Parker's presidential boom has re-
ceived a check. The principal talk last
week among the Democra tic politicians was
for Parker 1t looked as If the committees
session would give irresistible impetus to
the Parker movement. But a quiet and
hardly perceptible ebb set in later and is
running hard.
That the ebb was due to the influences of
the New York politicians who have been
here is certain. The Parker boom rests large
ly on the assumption that New York is for
him, and If it turns out at any time that
that is not the case, the boom will be
killed. The New Workers said little against
Parker, and some of them declared that
they favored him, and yet the belief be-
came widespread among the Southern and
Western politicians that New York does
not want him.
Representative Clayton, national commit
teeman for Alabama, declared it to be his
Del1ef that the New Workers were putting
Judge Parker forward principally for the
purpose of shutting out some other boom,
and that they were not sincere in their
Parker talk. The same view is expressed
by others, but there are many other booms.
but to conceal the candidacy of some one
whom New York will name at the proper
time. The dark horse alleged 10 be in the
background is Mayor Mcclellan, of New
York. The Parker men are mainly engaged
in knocking the Hearst boom.
Thomas Taggarts canvass for the ma
tional craftsmanship is regarded as prema-
ture, although 1T was taken more seriously
by prominent Democrats here than was
expected Mr.. Taggart spent much time
while here with German and Senator Stone,
of Missouri two of the craftiest politicians
in the United States. German called on
Taggart two or three times, and, observ-
ing the social amenities, the Indianapolis
man returned the calls. Gum Shoe Bill
Stone gave a dinner in honor of ct T."
and altogether the genial ex-mayor thor
oughly enjoyed himself. He shook hands
with everybody in sight. and handed each
one a cigar. Mr. Taggart is well-known
figure at all national gatherings of Demo-
Gratis. and whoever is nominated, he will be
formidable candidate for the chairman

LOUISVILLE. KY, Jan. T.-Eighteen

one side, raking the heads of the persons
in the boat next to the bank. These leaned
farther forward to escape striking their
heads This lowered one end of the boat.

guide saw the danger, and called to Mr..
Muelhbronner to jump and take the chain.
This he did, landing on steep bank, which
offered only slight foothold. Lying down
on his face he held to the chain and
pulled the boat towards the bank.
The boat sank in eight feet of water,
but further back where there was no
landing the water Is eighteen feet deep.

escaped by climbing over Mr.. Muelhbron-
ners PROSTATE form, and, after waiting

about 10000 acres of coal land located in

the matter in the hands of an attorney, who
reports to him there is no question as to the
validity of his title.

instructions have just been given to the
leaders of the Republican party in Texas
that no federal office holders are to be per-
mitted to go as delegates to the national
Republican convention.
These instructions are said to come from

the President, who desires that il he be
renominated it be not by a convention
dominated by federal office holders.
The instructions, which were made known
at a conference just held in this city be-
tween State Chairman Cecil Lyon and the
leaders Of the party in this State, have
caused widespread disappointment among
office holders who had laid plans to par
ticipate in the national convention.
