BOMB IN ST. PETERS.
Crowd in Cathedral in Rome Rush in
Panic for Outlets

Rome, Nov. 20. - A bomb was ex-
! ploded in st. Peters Sunday. The
editice was crowded, and an indescrib-
able scene of confusion followed. There
were no fatalities.
As soon as the echoes of the tremen-
dous roar had ceased canon sought by
reassuring words to quiet the people,
but in vain. They fled in all direc-
tions. Women and children screamed
and tried to protect their families in
the crush. The church is so large,
however, that there was ample room
for the crowd to scatter, and no one
was injured. No trace of the perpe-
traitor of the deed has been found.
Since Saint Anacleutus, who was or
dained by Peter himself, erected an
oratory in 90 A. D. on the site of the
present basilica to mark the spot where
the remains of st. Peter are buried, no
such dastardly occurrence is noted in
the history of the church.
Sunday was the anniversary of the
dedication of the basilica to st. Peter,
and it was beautifully decorated for the
occasion.

SUCCESSFUL STAMP MILL.
Horsepower Plant Opens New Era
in Mining Industry.

La Grande-Assay returns have been
received by the Aurelia company from
concentrates turned out on the trial run
of the mill recently installed by that
company on its mining property up the
Grand Ronde River. These assays show
values ranging from 1925 to $3.50 to the
ton, with loss of about Is per cent
in the waste. The recent run of the
mill shows that the ore will run SIS or
more per ton, and when the machinery
is placed in first class working condi-
tion from 80 to 95 per cent of the val
ues can be saved.
The mill installed is but small. Only
five horsepower is required to run the
crusher and other machinery, and but
one man is needed to superintend the
entire plant. Mining men are enthusi-
astic over the success of the mill, and
believe this character of mill has solved
the problem of how to handle the ore of
the Grand Ronde district. A few years
ago it was the opinion of miners that
the up-river country ores could not be
worked with small capital; that not less
than $4,000 or 100000 would be re-
quired to install suitable plant for
the treatment of the ores found there.
The trial of the Aurelia company has
proved that the ore can be handled on
a very much smaller scale, with high
percentage Of profits, or even higher, to
the ton than with heavy stamp machin-
cry. 1t is the intention of the Aurelia
to put in another mill next
year. Other owners of mining property
in the same district will follow their ex-
ample.

SUGAR OUTPUT IS LARGE.
La Grande Factory Will Turn Out Over
$4,000 Sacks.

La Grande-The new track Of the
Central Railway has reached the Hunt
grade opposite Conc, and a spur for
loading beets has been put in. This
reduces the hauling distance from the
Cone beet fields materially, as tho end
Of the track is now about three miles
and half from the farms. Most Of
the Cone beets remain to be delivered
and the harvest in that locality has
been postponed as long as possible,
awaiting railroad facilities. Superin-
tendent Barnwell says that ten days or
two weeks will be required to get all
the beets to the factory.
The factory has been running most
satisfactorily, without hitch or halt,
from the time the season opened. In
addition to the fine output of beets, the
sugar percentage is higher this year
than ever before. 1t is estimated that
the sugar output this season will be
between $4,000 and 10000 sacks, or
from $50 to 800 cars.
The factory will probably run four
weeks longer.

DIX SUNK ON SOUND.
Steamer Goes to Bottom Carrying
Down 80 of Her Passengers.

Seattle, Wash. Nov. 19.-The steam
er Dix, Captain p. Lermon, bounC
from Seattle to Port Blakeley with pas
sengers, sank two miles north of AK
point soon after O'clock last night
after collision with the steamhiI
Jeanie, Captain p. II. Mason, of the
Alaska Coast company.
Thirty-nine passengers and members
of the crew of the Dix are missing and
SO were saved. The Dix is total
wreck. The Jeanie was not injured in
the least and no member of her crew
was lost. The master of the Dix
was saved. The collision occurred
while the sound was almost as smooth
as mill pond, and after the boats had
been steamng within sight of each
other for quarter of an hour.
The Jeanie was backing when she
collided with the Dix and the impact
was very slight. The Dix was struck
abaft of amidships on the starboard
side. She listed heavily to port for a
brief period, righted herself, then sank
stern first. There was hardly time to
launch life RATS or boats before she was
almost entirely submerged. Passen-
gers jumped from the decks into the
water, women screamed and officers
and men called orders that could hardly
be heard above the din.
The passengers from the Dix who
could swim made their way to the sides
of the Jeanie and We're dragged aboard.
The Jeanie was not moved until after
all who had reached her had been
hauled aboard. Then she cruised about
picking up several who had managed to
stay above water. 1t was after 10
o'clock before the Jeanie left the scene
Of the catastrophe and steamed to the
Virginia street dock, Seattle, with the
30 survivors.
The cause of the collision is unknown
rs the mate, who was in the pilot house
1t the time, was drowned.

Send immigrants South.

Washington, Nov. 1.-THE recent
arrival at Charleston, S. c., of an i'm
migrant ship carrying more than 900
immigrants, marks a new era for the
whole South. The labor problem has
been a very serious one in the South,
and the attention of the people of that
section has been for some time directed
toward inducing immigration. Not
alone as laborers are immigrants want
ed; hundreds of thousands of tillable.
acres have been left uncultivated that
make one of the richest agricultural
sections of the world.
