Decidedly brighter dispatches
are coming from Galvos
ton. .Committees have the. work
in h'and. Provisions ar dis-
tributed systematically and re
lief from immediate suffering
seems afforded.
. Mayor Jones in a dispatch of
the 13th says :
"Our most urgent present
needs now are disinfectants, lime,
cement, gcsolino stoves, gasoline,
charcoal furnaces and charcoal.
Near by towns also may send
some bread. For the remainder
of our wants money will be most
available, because we can make
purchases from time to time with
more discretion than miscellane
ous contributors would exercise.
We are bringing order out of
chaos, - and again offer our pro
found gratitude for the assist
ance received."
The weather is fair and favor
able for those in roofless houses.
Carpenters and other median
ics are busy roofing the uncov
ered houses and making various
repairs.
The wharves are less injured
than was first supposed.
The relief fund is now more
than $1,000,000.
The estimate of the dead, how
ever, does not diminish, but is
placed at more than 5,000.

The question uv'- ' ow C.g:z
the Galveston disaster compare
with that of Jol,r..lov, u in loss
of life? We turn to .pofforri's
brief account ? cd tlnd it as fol
lows: -
"The town itsU contained
some 20,000 inhabitants, and
along ihe Coneia..Ui.;h river
there was a total population of
about 30,00 ', when, on May 31,
1830, this busy, i'.rivbg district
was laid wasto by the bursting
of Co:iemau;;h Luko aud reser
voir situated about ton miles
above the town. Houses,
churches an.1 f:;: torie?. wore
driven by the a mas.s
of ruin which ws dually piled
up against the railway bridge at
Johnstown and its destruction
completed by tVr c"!rr",r of!
fire. Altogether those who per
ished numbered 0,000."
While the death list at Galves
ton must remain a more approx
imated total, it will hardly reach
beyond 5,000, which leaves the
Johnstown far in the lead of sim
ilar disasters.

Mr. C C Faggarr, of No. .11
township, while standing iu his
yard this morning saw a strange
dog bite his dog and then run on
up the road toward Concord. He
got on his mule and followed the
dog and -says ho saw him Tun
ing after chickens along the road
and snapping at everything that
came his way. Just outside of
the corporate limits he overtook
the dog and killed him. He
thinks that it was a mad dog, as
it had all the symptoms.

Hon. David B Hill in his de
nunciation of bossos is but adopt
ing the tactics of defeated men
everywhere. If he had won in
his fight on Croker he would
have been as much a boss as the
victorious Richard, but beiDg
defeated he cries "Boss." No
man can be a boss without
the consent of his party. As
soon as a man establishes a repu
tation as a successful political
campaign manager and party
loader he becomes a boss, ac
cording to the envious ones and
the defeated aspirants for lender
ship. We have no patience with
this "boss" cry, since no party
and no people nexl be bossed a
day longer than they are willing
to be. The man with the quali
fications for leadership will in
evitably lead, until tho people
object to his leadership and over
throw him. Danville Register.
