Barcelona is an important market

STUDENTS OF vEsvWus.
Men Of Science Who Have Held ID
Their Posts Amidst the
Awful Upheavals.

Sig. Matteucci, director of the royal
observatory, in refusing TO quit his
perilous post, near the crater OF Ve-
suyius, only followed the example Of
his predecessors. During the tremen-
dous outbreak OF April. 1872, Sig.
Palmieri stood by his instruments
amid smoke and showers of red-hot
stones, while two immense streams of
lava, diverted by the rock on which
the observatory stood, flowed by on
each side. The first student of Vesu-
vius of whom there is any record, the
elder Pliny may be said TO have start
ed the tradition Of scientific GOODNESS.
II Is known on the authority of his
nephew that ii was philosophical
curiosity which led him 70 his doom
on the Vesuvian plain in that awful
year OF rs A. D.
When hastenins 70 the place from
which others fled with the utmost ter
ror," the nephew wrote. "he steered
his direct course 20 the point of dan
ger, and with so much calmness and
presence of mind as TO be able to
make and dictate his observations
upon tive motion and figure of that
dreadful scene" The brave old phil
losopher retired to rest that night in
the house of a distracted friend.
Pliny was so little disturbed that he
fell into deep sleep. Tor, being pref
ty 1at, and breathing hard, those who
attended without actually heard him
snore"
But Vesuvius increased in violence,
and the party had TO take TO the open
fields, with pillows on their heads
t. cited on with napkins) as protec-
ton against the storm Of stones. But
after all Vesuvius deal. mercifully
with the man who left his safe quar-
tiers at sea for the work Of study and
research, for his body was afterward
found, as the famous letter TO Tacitus
tells, without any marks OF violence
upon it, exactly in the same posture
In which he fell, and looking more
like a man asleep than dead"

RIOT AT THE
MICHIGAN Mine.
Striking Trammers Attack Miners and
Pitched Battle Resulted-One
Man Killed and Many
Wounded.

A riot at the Michigan mine at
Rockland, Ontonagon county, Tues
day night resulted in one man
being killed and several wounded.
One of the wounded men will die.
The riot was the outcome OF strike
of the trammers. The sheriff was
called to quell the disturbance. With
the aid of deputies forty were
arrested and locked up. All is now
reported quiet and serene.
The TRAINERS struck for higher
wages Tuesday, but the miners and
other employees refused to go out
and wanted to return to work. The
TRAINERS threatened them with
violence if they went to work, and
Sheriff McFarlane was notified. He
soon arrived with his deputies to
protect the men.
The miners made preparations to
go underground at the usual hour
Tuesday evening ana the striking
trammers gathered in force and
warned them not TO attempt it. AS
the miners were passing from the
dry house to the shaft the trammers
tried to rush them and the deputies.
They started to throw sticks and
stones and other missiles. They
were armed with revolvers and
knives and were a dangerous set.
MANY SHOTS EXCHANGED.
They started to fire into the
crowd and the fire was returned by
Sheriff McFarlane and his men. The
battle was fierce for time, but fin
ally the strikers were driven back.
At last the sheriff and his party
took forty of the worst fighters,
while the Others were busy carrying
away the wounded. One died i'm
mediately and another cannot live.
He was wounded in the bowels and
it is not believed medical assistance
can help him. All places OF business
were ordered closed by the sheriff
in order to prevent further trouble.
At late hour Tuesday night
quiet was restored and Wednesday
there were no disturbances. 1t is
believed that the trammers and
miners will be induced to return to
work. Rockland people are pleased
with the way in which Sheriff Nc.
Farlane and his deputies protected
the miners. Calumet News.

CHICkASHA, /. T., July IA negro who
committed a criminal assault upon the To-
year-old daughter of Ira Robertson, near
Womack, was captured last night and after
being taken back to the scene OF his crime
was hanged and burned near the spot where
he committed the crime. He confessed his
crime and offered no resistance to the mob.
To one person the negro gave his name as
Cliff Mays of Marshall Texas, and he told
another that It was VIII Newbright OF San
Antonio. BY the time the negro was over
taken near Bradley last night fully 400 men
had Joined in the chase and soon after the
capture the march to Womack began. 1t
was nearly o'clock this morning when the
Robertson home was reached and the negro
was brought before the assaulted girl
That's the one" said she at once, and
the negro replied: Yes, lady, I'm the one.
Gentlemen, l admit the crime"
The mob then proceeded with its victim
past the spot where he had committed the
crime and to a tree in the road on the
bank of Walnut creek. where a rope was
thrown over limb about eighteen feet
high and the other end knotted about the
mans neck. He was given an opportunity
to speak and again he confessed his guilt,
and after a. fervent prayer to God for for
giveness, he was drawn into the air to die
by strangulation.
Before life was extinct the body was
lowered 10 the ground, logs and brush were
heaped upon it and the mass ignited. For
a moment the body writhed, a few groans
were heard and the flames completed their
work. Two hours later the charred body

BISHOP POTTER CRITICISED
Remarks ReRardinG British "Gush''
Not Taken in Good Part
Across Water.

LONDON. July 1.-(special Cablegram 10
The Bee. )-Bishop PotteT's remarks on
British "gush" and his assertion that there
is no love lost between the two countries
have called forth various comments in the
newspapers, both daily and weekly, the
consensus OF opinion being that the bishop
ought to be the last man in the world to
complain Of treatment received at the
hands Of the Britishers because he las
been welcomed by the clergy and the lairy
as few foreigners have been.
In business circles it is thought that the
natural Implication of Bishop Potters re-
marks is the English confidence in the
integrity of Americans has been rudely
ken by the disclosures OF American
liress corruption made during the two
years just past.
Mr.. Emory McClintock. an American
business man now in London, says. Il
think that English confidence has been
shaken in the Americans, but | cannot be-
lieve it will prove a permanent effect. Dur
ing my visit to this country / have ex-
perienced only the most admirable spirit
Of fair play on the part OF the Englishmei
have met. Commercial confidence as
between the two countries cannot be easily
overturned. II Is a matter OF profound
regret that even temporarily there should
be any suspension OF confidence between
| the two countries.
Lord Salisburys attitude during tbs
United States war with Spain, the Ameri'
can attitude OF noninterference during the
Boer war. and. above all. the Identity Of
views held by the two countries during tbs
Japanese war. had built up a most cordla
understanding between America and Eng
land and / certainly hope and believe tha
