IOWNIRG DISASTER. Explosion in a Virginia Coal Mine .Utcml- eaitfth Fearful Loss of Life.- LYNCHBDRG , Va.t March ifc. A special from Pocahontas this morning says : An explosion occurred in the coal mines here last night at 10:30 , and from one hun dred and twenty to one hundred and fifty miners were killed. LATER Furtherintelllgence from Poca hontas represents the work of destruction at the coal mines as horrible and complete. There were 150 men in the mine at the time of the explosion , none of whom are be lieved to have escaped. Those not killed outright by the terriblQ force of the explo sion most likely perished from after-damp. The cause of the explosion is not yet detf- nitely ascertained , as the entry to the mine is ull full of bad air , but the presumption Is that one of the miners struck fissure gas. The latest intelligence Is that an exploring party entered the mine a short distance and brought out nix bodies in a frightfully mu tilated condition. There is ho hope that any can be rescued alive. beveral parties ventured into the mines this morning , but could not stand the at mosphere. A number of bodies were dis covered , horribly mangled , some of them with their heads torn from the trunks and others with limbs all gone , presenting an appalling spectacle. The work of destruc tion was not confined entirely to the interior of the mines , but houses two or three hun dred feet removed from- the mines were overturned and in several Instances entirely demolished. The latest'intelligence from the Pocahon tas mine is that abeut 150 men were killed. The accident was caused by the men going too far with lamps. All the machinery was wrecked. Efforts are making to recover the bodies , but. In consequence of after-damp verv little progress is made. A relief train , with physicians and explorers , has gone to the scene of the accident. The scenes in the vicinity of the disaster are heartrending in the extreme. PocHAHONTAs.Va. , March 14. The mines are still on fire , and the only means of putting it out is to close and seal them. This is now being done , and the mines will remain sealed probably two weeks. None of the bodies have been recovered. The Burlington's New Departure. Commencing March 7th , the C. , B. & Q. began running a full solid train , in cluding Pullman palace sleeping cars , from the Omaha depot , at foot of Tenth street , to the Union depot in Chicago , without change , transfer or delay of any kind. The train leaves the Omaha depot daily at 4:50 p. m. and arrives at Chicago at 2:30 p. in. Leaving Chicago dally at 12:50 , it arrives at Omaha at 9:25 a. m. Standard central time is used. JBaggage is checked to.destinaiion and rates made as low as by any other route. By using this route and train much time is saved and inconvenience avoided.

Cattle men here are generally exercised over the feared increase of the foot and mouth disease among the vast herds of cattle throughout Kansas and the Indian territory , and Gov. Qlick , of Kansas , has .been personally so licited to interest himself in the matter. As yet the disease , has only made its appear ance in two counties-in Kansas , and the citizens are carefully guarding against its spreading. If deemed necessary , all afflict ed cattle will be killed , the carcases burned and a strict quarantine demanded. Several hundred cattle are at present afflicted in the vicinity of Woodson county , Kansas , and the disease is being spread in various ways by dogs carrying bones , rabbits crossing fields where these cattle are , . hay that has been mouthed over , wheels of wagons or boots and clothing of men pass ing the fields , carrying it from one section to the other. A well known stockman stated that germs of the disease would re main in the cars for six months. Sheep as well as cattle can be afflicted. Eiot at an Opera House. A riot occurred in San Francisco the 14th over the sale of Patti tickets. A crowd 1,500 strong burst in the doors of the Grand opera house and smashed all the plants and pictures. The fury was sogreat that a man picked up a boy and hurled him " through the door of the"vestibule. . The I ! boy was badly hurt. Coats and dresses were torn to tatters and several women badly injured. Many fainted. . The crowd threatened to tear the box office down and gut the whole building unless the box office opened. The rioters smashed in the windows dews of the box office and the agent es caped and sent for the police. After a hard struggle and many arrests order was re stored. Mapleson was arrested and booked at the city prison for violating the fire ordi nance in selling more tickets than there were seats in the house. He was released on bonds. The Situation at the Pocahontas Mine. There is little of additional interest from the Pocahontas mines up to the 14th. Another explosion was feared , and as a precaution against loss of life , a guard had been set at the entrance to the mines. The east mine will be worked again in a few days. The resumption of work in the west mine , where the explosion occurred , will not take place for two months or more. Governor Cameron , of Virginia , has been informed that $2,500 would meet the press ing necessities of the dependants of en tombed * miners. Soliciting committees raised over $500 in a short time at Lynchburg - burg , and a call has been made for a meeting - , ing of the Lynchbuig tobacco association for the purpose of increasing the subscrip tion. Fifty barrels of flour and 2,500 pounds of bacon have been shipped to the sufferers. Public speakers and singers use Flso'a Cure for oarsenet9 and weak lungs. Girls' Book Knowledge. Popular Science Monthly. Think of an undeveloped brain get ting up book knowledge on ten differ ent subjects all the same day , and this going on day after day for several years ! It is altogether contrary to the principles of sound psychology to imagine - , agine that any sort of mental process , worthy of the name of brain thinking , can take place in that brain while this is going on. The natural tendency of a good brain at that age to be inquisi tive and receptive is glutted to more than satiety. The natural process of building up a fabric of mental com pleteness by having each new fact and observation looked at indifferent ways , and having it suggest other facts and ideas , and then settle down as a part of the regular furniture of the mind , can not possibly go on where new facts are shoveled in by the hundred day by day. The effect of this is bad on boys , but is worse on girls , because it is more alien to their mental constitutions. A Michiganjfarmer objects to his son taking up the study of physiologywhich is in regular course of the schools. The authorities insist. The parent thinks he can select what studies he choosgs for his boy , and. will take the matter into court. Eleven counties in Oregon have yet to hear the shrill whistle of the loco motive. "THE THIRD HOUSE. " ltd Good and Bad Membew-rThc Bemark- able Experience * ot ; Close Obier- ver. of IU Workings During ; Long Beifdeace IB ' WaahiBgton. Correspondence Rochester Democrat. No city upon the American continent has a larger floating population than Washington. It is estimated that dur ing the sessions of congress twenty- five thousand people , whose homes are in various parts of this and other coun tries , make this city their place of resi dence. Some come here , attracted by the advantages the city offers for mak ing the acquaintance of public men ; others have various , claims which they wish to present , while the great major ity gather here , as the crows flock to the carrion , for the sole purpose of get- ling a morsel at the public crib. The latter class , as a general thing , origin ate the many schemes which terminate in vicious bills , all of which are neither directed at the public treasury , or toward that revenue which the black mailing of corporations or private en terprises may bring. While walking down Pennsylvania avenue the other day , I met Mr. Wil liam M. Ashley , formerly of your city , whose long residence here has made him unusually well acquainted with the operations of the lobby. Having made my wante in this par ticular direction known , in answer to an interrogative , Mr. Ashley said : "Yes , during my residence here I have become well acquainted with the workings of the 'Third House,1 as it is termed , and could tell you of numerous jobs , which , like the 'Heathen Chinee , ' are peculiar. " "You do not regard the lobby , as a body , vicious , do you ? " "Not necessarily so there are good and bad men comprising that body ; yet there have been times when it must be admitted that the combined power of the 'third house1 has overridden the will of the people. The bad influ ence ot the lobby can be seen in the numerous blood-bills that are intro duced at every session. " " 3ut kow can these be discovered ? " "Easily enough , to the person who has made the thing a study. I can de tect them at a glance. " "Tell to what bills do me , you re fer ? " "Well , take the annual gas bills , for instance. They are introduced for the purpose of bleeding the Washington gaslight company. They usually re sult in an investigating committee which never amounts to anything more than a draft upon the public treasury for the expenses of the investigation. Another squeeze is the abattoir bills , as they are called. These , ef course , are fought by the butchers and market-men. The first attempt to force a bill of this de scription was in 1877 , when a promi nent Washington politician offered a fabulous sum for the franchise. " "Anything else in this line that you think of , Mr. Ashley P" "Yes , there's the job to reclaim the Potomac flats , which , had it become a law , would have resulted in an enor mous steal. The work is now being done by the government itself , and will rid the place of that malarial atmos phere of which we hear so much out side the city. " "During your residence here have you experienced the bad results of liv ing in this climate ? " "Well , while I have not at all times enjoyed good health , I am certain that the difficulty which laid me up so long was not malarial. It was something that had troubled me for years. A shooting , stinging pain that at , times at tacked different parts of my body. One day my right arm and leg would tor ture me with pain , there would be great redness , heat and swelling of the parts ; and perhaps the next day the left arm and leg would be similarly af fected. Then again-it would locate in some particular part of my body and produce a tenderness which would well nigh drive me frantic. There would be weeks at a time that I would be af flicted with an intermitting kind of pain , that would come on every after noon and leave me comparatively free from suffering during the balance of the twenty-four hours. Then I would have terrible paroxysms of pain com ing on at any time during the day or night when I would be obliged to lie upon my back for hours and keep -as motionless as possible. Every time I attempted to move a chilly sensation would pass over my body , or I would faint from hot flushes. 1 suffered from a spasmodic contraction of the mus cles and a soreness of the back and bowels , and even my eyeballs became sore and distressed me greatly when ever I wiped my face. 1 became ill- tempered , peevish , fretful , irritable and desperately despondent. " "Of course you consulted the doctors regarding your difficulty ? " "Consulted them ? Well I should say I did. Some told me I had neu ralgia ; others that I had inflammatory rheumatism , for which there was no cure ; that I would be afflicted all my life , and that time alone would miti gate my sufferings. " "But didn't they try to relieve your miseries ? " "Yes , they vomited and physiced me , blistered and bled me , plastered and oiled me , sweat , steamed and every thing but froze me , but without avail. " "But how did you finally recover ? " "I had a friend living in Michigan who had been afflicted in a similar way and had been cured. He wrote me re garding his recovery and advised mete to try the remedy which cured him. I procured a bottle and commenced its use , taking a tablespoonful after each meal and at bedtime. I had used it about a week when I noticed a decrease of the soreness of the joints and a gen eral feeling of relief. I persevered in its use and finally got so I could move around without limping , when I told my friends that it was Warner's Safe Rheumatic Cure that had put me on my feet. " "And do you regard your cure as permanent ? " "Certainly ; I haven't been so well in years as I am now , and although I have been subjected to frequent and se vere changes-of weather this winter , I have not felt the first intimation of the return of my rheumatic trouble. " "Do1 you object to the publication of this interview , Mr. Ashley ? " "Not at all , sir. 1 look upon it as a duty I owe my fellow creatures to alle viate their sufferings so far as I am able , and any communication regard ing my symptoms and care that may be sent to me at 506 Maine avenue will receive prompt and careful at tention. " ' "Judging from your recital , Mr. Ashley , there must be wonderful curative , - tive properties about this medicine ? " "Indeed , there is , sir , for no man suffered more nor longer than did I before this remedy gave me relief. " "To go back to the original subject , Mr. Ashley , I suppose you see the same familiar faces about the lobby session after session ? " "No , not so much so as you might think. New faces are constantly seen and old ones disappear. The strain upon lobbyists is necessarily very great , and when you add to this the demoral izing effect of late hours and intemper ate habits and.the. . . fact that they are after found out in their steals , their disappearance can easily be accounted for. " "What proportion of these blood- bills are successful ? " "A verv small percentage , sir. Not withstanding the power and influence of the lobby , but .few of these vicious measures pass. Were they successful it would be a sad commentary upon our system of government , and would virtually annihilate one branch of it. The great majority of them are either reported adversely or smothered in committee by the watchfulness and loy alty of our congressmen. " J. E. D. Oar Animal Census. New York Mall and Express. The number of people in the United increases about 1,500,000 a year , but the number of farm animals increased 4,000,000 during l883 , according to a report just presented to the commis sioner of agriculture by Mr. Dodge , statistician of the agricultural depart . The world-wide attention ment. - re cently excited by the American' hog gives especial interest at the present time to the animal census of the re public , which is as follows : Animals 1884. 1883.

Horses 11,169,683 10,838,111 331,572 Mules 1,914,120 1,871,047 , 43,047 Milch cows3,501,20G 18,125,635 375,521 Othercattle29,046,101 28,046,077 1,000,024 Sheep 50,626,626 49,237,291 1,389,335 Swine 44,200,893 43,270,086 930,807 Although we have less pigs than people , we have more than any other country on earth , and we have almost a sheep apiece , or nearly twice as many of the fleecy family as the United King dom , and we have more milch cows than all ' the British cattle together. We have'about as many horses as fam ilies , allowing an average of five per sons to each family ; and there is one mule for every thirty inhabitants. Dur ing its first century this republic doubled its population every twenty- five years , and Air. Griffen , an eminent Erfglish statistician , recently attempted to excite alarm by predicting that our growth will continue at the same rate until the soil will not be able to sup port so many people. It will not be equally perplexing to know how to re duce the animal census , should theie ever be danger of overcrowding , as in dicated by the present rate of increase. Powder is like money.
