The explosion OF carload Of powder
In transit on the Big Four railroad
early In the week should cause the
Crystal Falls city authorities TO sit mp
and take notice of certain dangerous
conditions in this city of which we
have complained several times but to
which warning no heed has been taken
TO date.
A freight train. going in one direc-
tion, contained carload Of powder. A
passenger train going in another direc-
tion passed this freight at great rate
Of speed. Just as the passenger train
was abreast Of the carload of powder a
terrific explosion occurred blowing the
passenger cars, with their loads OF
human freight TO bits. The carload Of
powder had by some unknown agency
been exploded. Scores Of lives were
lost and thousands Of dollars damage
was done.
There is absolutely no positive reason
advanced for the cause Of the explos-
ion. II may have been spark from
the passing engine that ignited gas in
the powder car; II may have been
different conditions of temperature; It
may have been the jar Of the passing
train; in short. any old guess may be
hazarded, one as close to the mark as
other The powder simply exploded

Old-Time Muster Passing.
From the Bath Independent.

The old-time f1remen's muster is fast be-
coming thing Of the past and its gradual
disappearance from the land is the result
of the progressiveness of the age. Years
ago before there were so many other forms
of amusement and fewer excuses for pub
lie gatherings. when the hand tub was the
most commonly used piece Of fire-fghtng
apparatus, the muster was a feature of
every year to which the fremen looked
with eager eyes. There was some fun and
some excitement in putting on the red
shirt and the white leather belt, donning
the fire hat and taking the pet machine to
some nearby town or city. There was the
parade, the MONDAY collation., the trial in
the afternoon. when all took hold of the
brakes and "broke her down." and the ball
IN the evening. The increased demand for
better fire protection has. however, sent
the hand machines to the rear and in their
places has substituted the water system
and the steamers. There's nothing very
exciting in the playing from a hydrant or
steamer and what Is more few cities
nowadays care to allow their apparatus to
be carted about the state for muster pur-
poses. AS a result of these changes the
old-time musters have become a thing of
the past, and the next generation will lit
tie realize what the word really meant in
the days of their dads and granddads.

Reluctant to Go.
From Harper's Weekly

FROM Harpers Weekly.
A West Point cadet, some years ago, was
told by his instructor to draw up the plans
and specifications for railroad viaduct to
connect two high hills, between which ran
small stream
In due course an excellent set of drawings
was presented, one showing the bridge in
Its completion, with sketch Of the sur
roundings, and one which sat two men, with
their legs hanging over the side, fishing
The drawing was returned. with the request
that the men be removed from the bridge
Upon receiving the paper the second time
the professor discovered that his instruc-
tions had been carried out. but that the
two men were seated on the bank of the
stream. still in quest of representatives Of
the finny tribe
Again was the paper returned, and this
time with positive orders to remove the
men from the drawing altogether. Imagine
the CONSERVATION which overspread the
features of the learned Instructor upon
receiving the paper for the third time, to
find two little graves and tombstones with
appropriate epitaphs. situated near the
bank OF the stream. His orders had been
obeyed and the men removed altogether
Needless to say that the cadet was for
given for this breach of discipline, and the
unintentional disrespect to his senior officer
was overlooked.

LONDON STOCK MARKET.
New Issues Interfere With the Busi-
ness of Week.

LONDON, July 13.-On the stock exchange
during the week business was interfered
with by the settlement and the number Of
new issues coming out. but investment-buy-
ing on fair scale, together with the easier
monetary conditions, strengthened the un-
dertone moderately and put quotations
fractionally higher on the week. Much
disappointment was caused by the contin-
ued absence of public support, but the chief
reason for the inactivity appears to be fresh
capital demands, including the issue Of
$lO.0OO600 in East Indian railway stock.
and the fact that the recent Egyptian
trouble has not yet entirely disappeared.
The cut In copper prices in New York
considerably upset the market for the
metal as well as copper shares the decline
OF $20 per ton on the week in the price Of
copper being reflected by a corresponding
shrinkage in shares.
The monetary situation in New York Is
being rather closely watched, and already
some authorities fear the way is bein 2
paved for gold Withdrawals by placing or
negotiating large amounts Of American
finance bills. Many have already been ac-
cepted, but the discount rates have been
put up against them, and 1t is stated that
some houses refuse to accept long dated
bills.
The American market provided a good
many rumors and bear points during the
week the war talk. the antitrust campaign,
the comparative failure Of bond issues and
the break In copper prices in turn having
a depressing effect but with more favorable
crop news at the week end and substantial
bull support the net decline amounted only
to about one point on the week, with the
exception Of Pacific stocks. which were
three to four points lower on the Door sup

Veuve Buonaparte.

from the Westminster Gazette.
Memory of q very curious law case Is re-
vived by the claim which a Luynes farmer
Is bringing against the ex-Empress Eugenie
for something like 600. .OOO alleged to be
due as the principal and interest Of a loan
said to have been made by the claimant s
great-uncle to Napoleon III as long ago as
1865: and 1t would not be wonderful II.
upon the circumstances as stated, this
action came to as ignominious an ending as
the earlier.
When the town Of Marseille went to law
AGAINST the ex-Empress Eugene a quarter
OF century ago. to endeavor to reclaim a
piece OF land which in the flourishing days
OF the second empire 1t had presented to
her late husband. the counsel for the mu-
nicipality commenced his speech, amid pro-
found silence. by justifying the designation
of the illustrious defendant as "Veuve
Buonaparte." on the ground that according
to law all French citizens were equal and
that the title Of majesty therefore belonged
to her no more.
There was in this an echo of the "Veuve
Capet" style of Fouquier Tinville's tribunal
OF the terror. by which the hapless Marie
Antoinette was condemned. which revolted
every French citizen of decent mind: and
the action was dismissed with costs against
the claimants. to the great joy of many
sincere republicans. But 1t is doubtful
whether. If the present case goes to trial,
there will be any talk of "Veuve Buona-
parte" now.

scribed for some Of the recent bond issues
And themselves again stuck. although the
Inducements offered them to assume the
risks Of flotation were most attractive.
Very few Of the big corporations. no mat
ter how sound their credit may be, can
get hold OF any large sums OF money under
per cent. and many OF them are willing
to pay nearly per cent This argues bad
for the money situation. although q ma
tority OF the specialists in that line are
trying to create the impression that the
financial skies are Frightening. The real
condition of the bond market disproves
these prophecies OF optimism. Every bond
house and bank in New York Is loaded to
the guard with securities for which they
can hnd no market except at q loss. The
political and business situation discourages
investment in bonds and no amount of talk
or argument can brighten or soften the
reality. Political hostility to capital Is in
creasing the general timidity OF investors
and contraction is steadily going on. The
stage has not yet been reached when the
money Is accumulating in the centers, but
that phase will appear later in. The longer
1t can be delayed the better OF the
masses Of the people will be. for when idle
funds pile up in the banks then II Is that
the working men will have empty dinner
pals. Then II Is that the discontented
ones will learn the lesson that II does not
pay to fight the hand that feeds. and that
one Of the requisites Of prosperity Is
serenity and freedom from the worry Of
restless demagogism.
