BURNED IN A BOILER Horrible Death of the Foreman of a IE COVERED WITH BLAZING OIL He Made a Strong Fight for His Life But He Cannot Live. Minor Mention. Pittsburg , June 8. Caged in a boiler, like a rat in a trap, with fire at both ends, Richard Shay, foreman at Park Bros. & Co.'s mill, battled for his life this morning. To remedy a defect Shay crawled into the boiler, taking a flaming torch with him. He hung the torch up at the mouth of the boiler and began operations. A blow from his hammer on the boiler dislodged the torch. It fell and exploded. Shay .was covered and blinded by the shower of burning oil, and his escape was shut off by a pool of burning oil near the boiler's mouth. With the "fire slowly eating into his vitals, Shay pressed himself as far away from the heat as possible, tear ing off his blazing garments and tramp ling them under his feet. It only took about three minutes for the oil to burn out, and then Shay dragged himself over the hot surface of . the boiler and succeeded in getting out. He was so badly burned that he cannot live. VIA THE GREAT LAKES. Very Low Rate rn Salmon Announced by the Northern Pacific. Astoria, June 7. The northern Pa cific has put in force a very low rate on salmon to New York and all Eastern points, as against steamer, via San Francisco and the Sunset route, which has a rate of 68 cents to New York, ex clusive of insurance, cartage and trans fer expenses, in effect. The tramp steamer of the Deitrick line, on top of these low rates, announced a rate of $2 per ton from Astoria to San Francisco, as against $3.60 by the Union Pacific, thus making the through rate to New York 60 cents, exclusive of insurance, etc.; or about 71 cents, including in surance, cartage, transfer and extra damage. The rate established by the Northern Pacific via Duluth and the Anchor line and the Western Transit Company make the charges to New York 75 cents, with corresponding rates to other Atlantic seaboard points. All rail rates via the Northern Pacific and Union Pacific to all Atlantic seaboard points via the Empire line have been es tablished at 85 cents. Gates Must Close Sunday, Chicago, June 8. If the decision of the United States circuit court shall prove effective the world's fair will close on Sunday hereafter. At the opening of court this morning Judge Woods announced that the court would render a decision on the application of the United States district attorney for an injunction restraining the manage ment of the world's fair opening the gates on Sundays. He said each of the three judges would deliver separate opinions, as no two of them fully agreed. Judge Woods then gave his opinion that the injunction prayed for should issue. In behalf of the world's "fair an appeal was taken to the United States supreme court. HERO OF PROTKCTIOK. McKlnley Renominated for Governor of Ohio. Columbus, O., June 8. With superb eloquence Gov.

P. & A. N. Co. HOW OLD IS MAN? Rrldence that tbe Pacific Coast Pro duced the Oldest Remains. Written for the Chronicle. In some articles in former issues of the Chronicle, I have endeavored in my own way to give you a faint idea of the generally accepted theories regard ing the formation of our fossil beds and the preservation of their contents, the only records left to us of life in the past ages of our world. In speaking of ages in this connection, we cannot doubt but that the age of man is now only in its infancy, when we compare it with these past times, when even the sem blance of a creature like man did not exist on all the earth. W&have abund ant evidence all around us of the long, and now quiet past, gone so long that we cannot comprehend the time that has flown. The great question now is, when did man appear on tbe earth to wonder at the strange things that all thfse ages upon ages, under the direc tion of a Mighty Power, have brought forth? There is no question but that man first existed in a condition, with regard to intellect, very slightly re moved from the brute creation, and in that condition he appeared but a few centuries ago, when compared with the awful lapse of time passed before he appeared upon the scene. When we require food, Nature tells us by making us hungry. When we are in danger .Nature causes us to fear. Self-preservation is the first law of nature, therefore it is most natural to suppose that the first action of man after being endowed with reason was toward obeying these imperative de mands of nature. Be did this by mak ing rude implements, and the remains of these implements are the first evi dences found of his existence. The era in which these first remains are found, therefore indicate the time of the true birth of man, for before that time ar rived he could not have been classed with the true man endowed with reason. Archeology teaches us that man's existence is divided into three epochs, named the stone age, the' bronze age and tbe iron age. The stone age is the only one with which we will deal, as history tells almost all about tbe age of bronze, and we are now living in the iron age. The stone age has been di vided into the paleolithic, or old stone age, but this so called old stone age is only as old as the mammoth, which also existed in the newer stone age. These divisions in the epoch of man have been fully established in Europe, but in other countries they have not been. The South sea islanders are still in the stone age, and this continent was likewise three hundred years ago. Science has had very much unreliable evidence to contend with in arriving at the proper conclusions regarding man's antiquity. The very earliest of even this class of evidence takes us back to the miocene period, or tbe middle ter tiary. This consists only of flint chip pings and some scratchings on pieces of bone, which might have been done through some agency other than by the hand of man. The pliocine man's exis tence is not so doubtful, but that man existed in both Europe and America as earlyaas the middle of the quaternary period, there is abundant evidence. There was found in the terraces of the river Somne in France, some years since, chipped flint implements, with the bones of the horse, mammoth, rhi noceros, hippopotamus and hyena. These relics were found in a gravel de posit beneath the river loam, thirty feet below the surface, where they could never have been disturbed. There are many other instances that might be noted in England, Germany, Belgium, Denmark and France, as well as in America, that show unmistakably that man existed at that time. There was found in a cave at Engis, on the Meuse river, near Liege, Belgium, a human skull, the great antiquity of which could never be questioned. It was found as sociated with bones of quarternary ex tinct species and of those now living. This skull is well shaped and evidently of a human being of considerable intel ligence. It was found beneath a heavy crust of stalagmite at the bottom of the cave. There was found in the celebrated cave of Mentone, near Nice, a iew years Highest of all in Leavening Power. Latest U. S. Gov't Report. since, the most interesting specimen of man ever discovered. It was the com plete skeleton of a tall asd well formed man, and that he lived in the quater nary epoch there is no doubt. With him was found bones of tbe cave bear, cave lion, rhinoceros and reindeer, to gether with bones of existing species. The bones of this ancient being were all in place, and within his reach he had left his flint implements and the spoils of the chase 'the bones of the reindeer. Twenty-two perforated teeth of the stag were found about his head. These are supposed to have been his necklace. Many other instances might be named where these relics have been found in. various parts of Europe, but the an tiquity of those mentioned are the most reliable. In America, the earliest ap pearance of man so far has been found on the Pacific coast, the most reliable ones being found in Calavaras county and at Table mountain in California. These were said by many very reliable parties to have been found in the deep gravel mines of that region; although none of them were seen by scientists until after they had been removed. These specimens consist of two human skulls and some mortars and pestles, and were taken from the older gravel deposit underlying the lava overflow of that region which belongs to the pliocene period. If the finding of these remains are taken as authentic, there is no doubt left as to their great antiquity, for the present rivers have in some places cut through this lava formation at a depth of 2,000 to 3,000 feet. If, however, these are not considered at all, the Pacific coast has produced from the more recent placer gravels of California, well au thenticated remains of man. These be long to the quaternary age, and have been found with remains of both extinct and living animals, and among them, those of the mastadon, elephant and the horse are found. It has been thought possible that these ancient people may have come here from Asia, but they could have gone from here to Asia as well. I have now mentioned some of the oldest and most reliable instances of the finding ot the remains of ancient man, and that they are old almost be yond our comprehension there is no doubt, but how old? The geologist can only count the periods, epochs, ages, etc., but to count them in years it is very hard.atter we once' get into the dis tant past, beyond the reach of history. Geologists generally appear to concede that man first came into existence in Asia, but by what mode of reasoning I ' could not say, as remains of man as old, if not older than any found in Asia or Europe, have been found in this country. The age of man, in years,-has been es timated at from 10,000 to 100,000 years, but still the great mystery of the true birth of man into the world is yet un solved, and until that time arrives, if ever it does arrive, the greatest mystery to man will be himself. L. S. D. Dr. M. J. Davis is a prominent pbysi-ft cian of Lewis, Cass county, Iowa, and has been actively engaged in tbe practice of medicine at that place for the past thirty-five years. On the 26th of May, while in Des Moines en route to Chicago, he was suddenly taken with an attack of diarrhoea. Having sold Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy for the past seventeen years, and know ing its reliability, he procured a 25 cent bottle, two doeea ot which completely cured him. The excitement and change of water and diet incident to traveling often produce a diarrhoea. Every one should procure a bottle of this Remedy before leaving home.
