Awful Theater Disaster.

Boyertown, Pa.-One hundred psr.
sons of this borough were killed in .
theater fire and panic Monday night
and nearly three-score injured, many
of them fatally. A majority of the
killed were members Of the leading
families OF the town.
While "The Scottish Reformation"
was being produced In the RhoAAss
opera house by Mrs. Monroe Of Wash
Ington, q gasoline tank used in q NOV
ing picture scene exploded. Immedi-
ately there was q wild rush for the
exits Of the building. Men Of mature
years endsavored to still the panic,
but their voices could not be heard
above the shrieks and screams Of the
terrified women and children, who
composed the greater part Of the audi
ence.
It seemed as though nearly the en-
tire audience made a mad rush for the
exit the moment the explosion 90

great crowd those persons who were

VIII Withdraw Troops.

Washington.-Presi Roosevelt
has determined to withdraw the fed
eral troops from Goldfield, Nevada,
shortly after the convening of the
special session Of the legislature, which
met Tuesday. This intention was
made known at the White House
when the report of the special investi-
eating commission was made public,
together with letter from the Presi-
dent to Governor Sparks dated Janu-
ary 4th.
The President says he shall be gov
erned by the recommendations in the
report unless the governor can show
that the statements Of the report are
not In accordance with the facts. The
report says:
"The conditions did not support the
general allegations In the governors
request for troops, nor were his spe-
cific statements established to any
such extent as to justify his use of
these statements for the purpose OF
getting federal troops"
The commission expresses itself as
satisfied that out Of the entire mem
bership in the miners union there are
not over a few hundred men of dan
gerous type. while the great majority,
probably three-fourths of the member
ships Of the union. were conceded to be
men Of law-abiding tendencies. The
report adds:
"By permitting their organization to
be managed and controlled by men Of
violent tendencies, the union as body
has thus laid itself open to the re-
proach of being a Vicious organiza-
tion.
''In view Of the foregoing facts we
believe there is considerable danger
that serious disorders will be attempt
ed If the troops be withdrawn and the
mine operators insist on carrying out
their publicly ainounced policy. But
II a handful of men have controlled
the Goldfield Miners Union and COM
mitted the organization to indefensible
policies and practices, 1t is no reason
why the county of Esmeralda and the
state Of Nevada should tamely submit
to the domination of this same group
and should not assert their authority
and power and enfore respect for law
and order without support Of federal
troops"

GUARDING THEIR FLocks.
TWO Hundred Armed Men PROTECTING
Twenty thousand Sheep.


Twenty thousand Sheep.
Dsnvsr.-A Grand Junction. Colo,
special to the Republican Monday night
scys:
Appeals to the governor and to the
shariffs Of Mesa and Delta counties for
special protection having failed. and
fearing that a bloody battle might be
precipitated by irate cattlemen through
whose territory they must pass and
which had been the scene of many
range wars and murders, the owners
OF 10000 sheep are sending the stock
from Montrose to the winter range in
Utah under guard Of over 200 men,
armed with Winchesters.
This great body arrived within two
miles Of Grand Junction at dusk to
night and bivouacked ON the Orchard
mesa. For miles around and along the
route skirmishers are deployed. look
Ing for the slightest sign of hostile
cattlemen. The guards form a Gordon
about the focks, taking turns at keep
Ing watch.
The siglt is the most picturesque
ever seen in this part of the country
and brings to Mind the days when the
Ku Klux Khan of the South mustered
its wierd forces under the shadows OF
night to make impossible negro domf-
nation.
On every peak. hilltop. in the ra-
vines and along the roads and trails
watchmen are tonight silhouetted
against the clear sky and refuse to
speak. Save for infrequent challenges
by sentries of curious persons ap-
preaching too close to the line. all is
quiet.
The owners Of the sheep are mem
bers of the Western Slope Wool Grow
ers' Association. They petitiohed the
sheriffs for 200 deputies, but they were
refuse. Then a petition to Lieuten-
ant Governor Harper for troops was
also refused, but he sent letter to
the sheriffs to see that the flocks were
protected.
A short time ago John Swanson,
sheep herder, was murdered and his
flock driven of the range. Although
$4,000 reward was offered the murderer
was never captured. The feeling be-
tween the two sides Is bitter and mi
nor troubles have been frequent. The
sheep are feeding as they go along and
trouble is feared. The sheepmen will
break camp at dawn and continue to-
ward the Utah line.

un,versal Lanouaue.

He spoke his love in German-she
answered not word. In French he
tried to WOO her-the maiden never
heard. He tried his luck in English,
in Irish-all in vain; in Greek. Turkish
and Latin, and in the tongue of Spain.
And then an inspiration came to the
anguished youth. "The universal
language" he cried, "I'll try. for.
sooth!" He kissed the demure maiden
and pressed her to his breast; she
understood that language, and-well,
you know the rest.
