The mortality in the present catas-
trophe is, in fact, much less than that
of 1881, when $4,000 persons are report
ed to hace lost their lives. But the
destruction Of property is held to be
greater than that which followed any
previous eruption, because the lava
streams and the showers Of ashes
have spread over a Target area It
is estimated that the property loss will
reach at least 100000

the present estimate of actual damage
is. excessive, as was the case in Mar

yards and orchards in the West Indian
Island were supposed to have been

which buried them. And the coffee

suffered a similar fate. Subsequently

PITCHFORK T|LLMAN.
Brief Sketch Of Our Leading
Chautauqua Attraction.
Erroneous Popular Conceptions
Of Distinguished Southerner
Dissipated.

Senator Tillman of South Caro-
lima, who is one of the chief
speakers at the Worthlngton Chau-
tauqua to be held Aug. 9Th to 14th,
is one of the most sought after men
on the Am erican platform and
every one within a radius of 100
miles of Worthington should make
it a point to hear him. We are
pleased to give the following sketch
of Mr.. Tillman, which dissipates
the erroneous popular conception of
him:
When Tillman first came into
view as a public man the impression
spread abroad was that here was
an uneducated, uncouth, b1awling
Southern farmer, who aspired to
rule his State. This was one of
the earliest misinterpretations of
the man that was circulated over
the land. Benjamin R. Tillman
came of one of the most intelligent,
an it might be said aristocratic, of
the old South Carolina families.
When he was a boy before the war
he had for a governess and tutor
the sister of Chester A. Arthur,
who afterwards became President
of the United States. The Tillman
family lived in luxury until the
war swept away it's property in
slaves and left it nothing but
deprecated land. The present
Senator, on that account, did not
60 to college, as nearly all tho
rich Southern youth did before
the secession, nor did he study
law He became a farmer on the
ancestral estate, and there he stayed
literally tiller of the soil, until the
great political uprising of the
farmers of the West and South took
place in 1890. Mr.. Tillman, how
ever, during the twenty-five years
OF his steady farm life was an eager
student Of books and affairs, such
as became the brother of promi-
nent fourteen year congressman,
the cousin of perhaps the leading
lawyer of the Alabama bar, and q
near relative of other Tillmans who
became respectively a professor at
West Point, district attorney in
Tennessee and United States i
minister in the diplomatic service

ington,
In the evening the Brewster band
gave the wedding party pleasant
little serenade, and at it's conclusion
the boys were invited in to partake
of the wedding feast.
The groom was formerly engaged
in the meat business here and also
acted as chief Of police for some-
time. He has many friends in this
locality who congratulate him upon
the step he has taken. The bride
has grown to womanhood in
Brewster and vicinity, and for q
number Of years has been a sue
cessful teacher in tho rural schools
Of Mobiles and Jackson Counties,as as
we'll as q respected and popular
member of our community. :
Mr.. and Mrs. Weipandt left yes
terday for Mankato, where they
will reside during the summer,
Tony having taken a position in a
meat market at that place. In the
fall he expects to return to Brewster
to run his threshing rig.
On the same day that the above
mentioned parties assumed their
perpetual partnership a similar
scene was enacted at the home of
Mr.. and Mrs. Gottlieb Caspar three
miles northwest Of town, their
daughter Ida having been joined to
Nicholas Kaufman by wedlock's
holy bonds. The officiating clergy
man was Rev. Hayenga, of Sibley,
Iowa. The brides sister Rose at
tended her as maid of honor, and
Tillman Kaufman, brother of the
groom, was best man.
A large number of relatives and
friends were in attendance at the
wedding and reception, and the
band went out to iven up affairs
for short time in the evening.
The happy couple came to town
the following day, and commenced
housekeeping at the Kaufman
residence Tribune.

new FIRE FIGHTING
APPARATUS INSTALLED
ChesebrOugh vaseIine Company
Spending Much Money to In sure
Safety of Its Plant.

The Chesebrough Vaseline Com
pany has given an order to the Vogel
Manufacturing Company, of New
York, for the installing of a new
patent fire fighting apparatus that
will cost thousands of dollars.
In every building mechanics are
now at work installing pipes, the
same sizes as the water pipes. These
pipes are run along the ceilings and
sides of the buildings, and as soon as
a fire occurs the heat when it reaches
a certain temperature bursts these
pipes and the liquid that they contain
instead of flowing out slowly is sprin-
kled about the building and as soon
as it touches the fire the blaze is out.
The Vogel company, it is said, has
proven that the new system IS good
one and that it is able to do all that
it is claimed that it will.

Lehigh Valley Tug GeneSee Ran
Down Long Island FerrybOat--
Tug Little Injured.
UP FOR REPAIRS
FeryhOat Had to Slow Down in
Effort to Let Tug Pass But
HeadWay Was Too Great.P

The tugboat Genesee, of this city,
belonging to the Lehigh Valley rail-
road and commanded by Captain
Hemstreet, of Jersey City, was in
collision early this morning with the
Long Island Railroad ferryboat
Flushing.
The Flushing was on her way to
Thirty-fourth street from Long Is
land City. When she was in mid
stream she suddenly had to slow
down to avoid tow crossing her
bow.
The pilot of the Genesee had laid
his course so as to pass just astern of
the Flushing, and when he saw the
Flushing slow down, he attempted to
swing his tug around short. but the
headway was too great, and he struck
the Flushing glancing blow on the
overhang of the mems cabin. Some
of the planking of the overhang was
crushed in, but no damage was done
to the hull The Flushing completed
her round trip before laying up for
repairs.
1t is understood that the Genesee
escaped injury and that she will be
here sometime today.

PASSENGERS DEMAND IT
Plan Is to Take Working Men to

Within short time, If the present
plans are carried out, company will
be formed for the purpose of running
a line of automobiles from this city.

rounding towns to Roosevelt for the
benefit of the workmen and citizens
of that town
AT the present time it is next to

at certain hours and workmen who
live in this and surrounding towns
have long wanted another way. The
idea of the automobiles, it is said.
was suggested and all interested
think that it would be paying in
vestment.
The automobiles would leave the
cities at certain hours throughout the
day, bringing the workmen from the
surrounding towns in the morning
and taking back citizens who desired
to come, then again in the evening to
bring the workmen back.
In conversation with a man who Is
interested in the idea, a NEWS RE-

tJtnited States commissioner of labor.l
duced to concrete form, but the infor-
nation in its entirety is not in the
form of official reports.
At the conclusion of the conference
Senator Carter dictated the following
statement bearing upon the presidents
attitude:
'"The meat inspection amendment
placed on the agricultural bill has met
with the opposition of the packers and
their friends, who seem to be bending
every effort to defeat it. The president
says that if the amendment is enacted
into law he will be content to remedy
the evils complained of through the
law.
IF, however, the amendment is de-
feated, he will feel constrained in the
discharge of his official duty to the
public to send to congress the reports
in his possession relating to the abuses
existing in the packing houses. He
feels that it is better to refrain from
making the reports public, not through
any regard for the beef packers partic-
ularly, but because an official state
ment of the facts would injure the
stock raisers of the country, thus max
ing them innocent victims of a line of
abuse for which they We're not prima-
rily in any sense responsible.
THE only answer that can be made
to the consumers of our meats at home
and abroad will be the enactment of
law through which an efficient and suf-
ficient inspection shall be made"
The findings of the presidents com
missioners are, it is said, about as fol
lows: They say that lard is manufac-
tured from hogs which die from chol-
era, that the meat inspectors are in
competent aud overworked, that sani-
tary conditions prevailing at the pack
ing houses are revolving, that the pack
ers use preservatives and that meat is
sold to Americans which is deemed un-
fit for expectation to Europe. The com.
missions remedy for all this is pub
licitv
