An anarchist riot occurred in Chicago Sunday afternoon in which twenty-five people were bruised in a struggle with forty-five police, summoned to quell the disturbance. Five persons were arrested, among them being Mrs. Lucy Parsons, widow of Albert-Parsons, who was executed November 11th, 1837, in Chicago for aiding and abetting the bomb throwing in the Hay Market roit. She was charged with disorderly conduct, obstructing the street and resisting an officer.
The others arrested were: Paul Vandree, charged with distributing incendiary literature; Clement Pfuetzner, charged with assault, disorderly conduct and obstructing the street; Herman Goodman, charged with distributing incendiary literature; Abraham E. Delstadt, charged with disorderly conduct, obstructing the street and resisting an officer.
"A mass meeting had been called at West side Turner hall at which speeches were to be made by Mrs. Parsons and others on the topic, "The Execution of the King of Italy." The call concluded, "workmen, come in crowds and show that the feeling of brotherhood is strong among you."
Mrs. Parsons was on her way to the hall, when, feeling ill from the intense heat, she stepped into a shaded doorway to rest. Soon a crowd formed and a police officer, pushing through the crowd, caught a glimpse of Mrs. Parsons.
Thinking she was making an anarchistic speech he endeavored to disperse, the crowd. His efforts were in vain and the officer sent in a call for reinforcements. Additional officers arrived and immediately a general fight was precipitated. Fists and clubs were used and the officers, finding themselves being worsted, sent in a riot call. The number of police was increased to forty-five and they rushed into the throng. Mrs. Parsons was seized. "It is claimed, she resisted arrest and her associates fought for her. Bricks were thrown, clubs were wielded and, a fierce struggle ensued before the crowd was finally dispersed.
Clement Pfnetzner, one of those arrested, was badly cut in the hand. A number of children in the crowd were knooked down in the melee and trampled upon, but none were seriously injured. In all twenty-five persons were badly beaten and bruised. After the affray numerous small cards were found on the 'street and in vicinity containing two verses of poetry, urging the workingmen to be free, to throw off the yoke of bondage and fight for liberty and to lay down their lives, if necessary, to overthrow the government and attain freedom. The card bore the heading: "Workingmen, emancipate yourselves!"
The police assert that these cards were printed in San Francisco and were received here by the anarchists several days ago and have been secretly distributed. A large quantity of literature advocating anarchy and a book containing the names and addresses of several hundred anarchistic sympathizers were received by the police.

The
GEN. CHAFFEE REPORTS
Concerning the Battle With Chinese at Pietsang--Previous Dispatches Confirmed.
The war department Tuesday received the following cablegram from General Chaffee:
"CHE Foo, August 7.—Adjutant General, Washington: Tien Tsin, Friday, August 3.—Conference today decided on battle Sunday. Chinese intrenched east and west through Piet-saang. Rest of Chinese protected by flooded ground practically unassailable. Japanese, English and American forces, about 10,000 strong, attack Chinese right, west of river in flank. Other forces, Russian and French, about 4,000 strong, opposite side between river and railroad. Chinese position strong. Army reported 30,000 between PeBang and Yang Tsuun or crossing of road at Pei-Ho. Yang Tsung o. objective. Our force 2,000 and battery. Connemaugh arrived. Sixth cavalry left at Tien Tsin for guard of city and awaiting mounts. Ministers safe on 28.h of July. "CHAPPEE."
MESSAGE IS EXPLAINED.
The dispatch of General Chaffee, written before the battle of Sunday, confirms the dispatch received at the navy department Monday and also the press dispatches received Tuesday concerning the attack on the Chinese at Peilitsang. General Chaffee's dispatch, dated Friday, was not sent from Che Foo until Tuesday, an inexplicable delay. The most interesting feature of the dispatch is the information regarding the positifs of the Chinese army and the fact that the advance upon Pekin is made by two columns, one on each side of the Pei-Ho river. The international force, as given by General Chaffee, would aggregate about 14,000 men, while the other dispatches say 16,000, but this difference can easily be accounted for, as more men might have been available when the movement began than when the conference was held on the third instant. This conference is supposed to have been between the several commanders present at Tien Tsin.
It is evident the foreign commanders do not underestimate the task which they have before them, as the dispatch shows that a thorough reconnoisance of the Chinese position had been made and that even before the advance of the international force from Tien Tsin the commanders were in possession of full information relative to the Chinese position. This is one of the most welcome features of the dispatch, as it proves that the international column did not blunder upon an intrenched position of the enemy. According to the war department map the town of Peitang covers both sides of the river, but the main portion of it is on the left side where the Japanese, English and American forces had arranged to attack the enemy.

AMERICANS TRIPED
Filipinos Either Capture or Kill a Scouting Party of Fifteen Men.
Insurgents Become More Active In Ambushing and Attacking Small Reconnoitering Parties.
The first serious check which the American troops have met in the Philippines during the last two months is recorded in a dispatch received in Washington Saturday morning from General MacArthur.
There has been an increase of insurgent activity during the last three weeks, especially in the way of ambushes and attacks upon small parties. First Lieutenant Alstetter, of the engineer corps, with an escort of fifteen men, was taken in ambush in the province of Ecija, Luzon, by a large force. The Americans fought until their ammunition was gone and as they were surrounded, there was nothing to do but surrender. One man was killed and three wounded. General Lacuna, in command of the insurgents, returned the wounded with a letter promising to treat the prisoners well. Lieutenant Boston Huelsberg was ambushed and killed near Santa Cruz, province of Laguna.
Five men of the Twenty-fourth infantry were captured in Nueva Ecic, but Sergeant Schmidt, of the Twelfth infantry, with seven men, trailed the captors and killed five.
Captain Lara, of the Manila native police, was dangerously shot by an unknown assailant. Saturday while on the street. He had been effectively engaged in enforcing regulations, and had made enemies among the Filipinos, some of whom have long threatened vengeance. Lara had been generally accused of gross corruption in office and specific charges were made against him by American officers.
At the suggestion of Archbishop Chappelle, Judge Taft has been examining the heads of the religious orders as well as Monsignor Nozaledas and other ecclesiastics, preparatory to the time when it shall be necessary to take definite action regarding the affairs of the friars and the church.
It appears that the real estate holdings of the friars are smaller than had been expected.
CHARGED WITH PATRICIDE.
Young Boy Accused of Shooting Sister and Poisoning His Father.
On the afternoon of July 28th last, while John I. Tindall, who was a highly reappeated and industrious farmer, living two miles south of Gordon, Ga., with his wife, were visiting neighbors, his daughter Ruby, aged ten years, was shot and instantly killed by her oldest brother, aged seventeen years, with a shotgun, which shooting at the time was supposed to have been accidental, but in the light of an subsequent events is now thought by many to have been intentional. The motive for the shooting is supposed to have been revenge for his sister having previously told his father of the brother's misconduct, causing his father to whip him.
On Friday morning, August 3d, John I. Tindall, who had been slightly iudisposed for several days, woke up complaining of a headache, and as he had been taking medicine for some time, took a dose for this ailment, and was seized within fifteen or twenty minutes afterwards with violent convulsions, one convulsion succeeding another in rapid succession, ending in death within fifteen minutes from the first seizure.
The coroner's jury, after a thorough investigation and autopsy by physicians, rendered a verdict in effect that Tindall came to his death by strychnine poisoning, the drug have been mixed in the medicine he was taking by his eldest son, James Tindall, with intent to kill.
The motive for this deed is supposed to have been furnished by a whipping given the boy by his father-a week or two previous to his death.
Boers Continue to Give Up.
Lord Roberts telegraphs to the war office in London that General Hunter reports that 3,348 men have surrendered to him altogether. General Hunter also secured 3,046 horses and three guns.
MILITARY FEATURE

The north end of Sapelo island, was sold Tuesday under mortgage foreclosure for $5,000. The Scottish Rights American Mortgage company, of Scotland, was the purchaser.
DIRECT FROM CONGER
Alleged Authenic Message Received In Washington Tuesday.
Dispatch Shows Petillou: Position of Legationers, But Date of the Message Is Uncertaint.
The following cablegram from Minister Conger was received Tuesday night by the state department:
"Tsi An Yamen, August 7.—To the Secretary of State: Still besieged. Situation more precarious. Chinese government insisting upon our leaving Pekin, which would be certain death. Rifle firing upon us daily by Imperial troops. Have abundant courage but little ammunition or provisions. Two progressive Yamen ministers beheaded. All connected with legation of the United States well at the present moment.
This is the first cablegram which has come direct from Minister Conger; the first having been received through the intermediary of the Chinese minister, Mr. Wu. The telegram shows that the situation in the Chinese capital is still of a very serious character, that the ministers are still in danger from the Chinese troops and that their supplies of ammunition and provisions have been reduced very considerably. So important were the statements contained in the dispatch that a conference was held by wire between several of the officials and the president at Canton, lasting for several hours.
The telegram is checked by the telegraph company as having been put on the wire at Tsi Nan, a large city about eighty miles southeast of Pekin, on August 7th.
IN ATLANTA JAIL.
Near Marietta.
A negro believed to be the man who assaulted and almost murdered Mrs. George Inzer at McIver's station, on the Western and Atlantic railroad, Monday afternoon, was arrested near Marietta, Ga., Tuesday morning and secretly carried to Atlanta and placed in the Tower for safe keeping. The negro gives his name as Sam Robinson, and he wore the cordurdy trousers, with patches, and a checked shirt, as described by Mrs. Inzer. These clothes were taken from him by the sheriff of Cobb county after his arrest and others substituted in order to prevent his identity being known when he was transferred to Atlanta.
Mrs. Inser, who is the wife of George Inser and the daughter of Mart Taylor, both farmers of Cobb county, was seriously injured by her brutal assault and may die from the effects of the assault.
Mrs. Inzer had been to visit friends and was returning home when she was met by a negro. He passed her in a public road. He then retraced his footsteps, heading her off by cutting through the woods. She screamed and ran, but the negro overtook her, calling to her if she did not stop he would kill her. He struck her on the face and head with heavy stones and then dragged her into the woods near an old mill.
Leaving her half dead, the negro fled. As soon as she could reach her home, Mrs. Inzer related what had occurred, and a posse of citizens was formed and a pack of bloodhounds secured. The party divided up into seaching parties and the woods were scoured for many miles around.
Tuesday morning about 11 o'clock Robinson passed a house near Maririetta and asked the way to Atlanta, saying he wanted to go to South Carolina. The man he addressed had heard of the assault on Mrs. Inzer and had read the description of the negro. He told Robinson to take the left hand road to au old mill, and the negro did not follow the advice. Half an hour later he was in the hands of five men, the farmer whom he had addressed having notified his neighbors and headed him off.

Miller had been brought back from Indiana by the defense. It was his opinion that the shot which resulted in the death of Governor Goebel was fired, as were those which followed it, outside the executive building:

ALABAMA'S ELECTION

MAYOR'S YETO SUSTAINED.
Atlanta City Council Reverses Its Action Regarding Electric Light Franchise.
By a vote of ten to three the Atlanta, Ga., city council sustained the mayor in his veto of the electric light franchise previously agreed on by that body at its secret caucus and subsequently unanimously adopted by both council and the aldermanic board.
Preceding the vote on the veto question Alderman Harvey Johnson made one of the hottest speeches the council has heard in many months. He scored the Atlanta Constitution for its editorials on the situation and roundly roasted President E. Woodruff, of the petitioning company, for claiming the streets of Atlanta. He referred to Mr. Woodruff as the "by-product president." Both Mr. Woydruff and Mr. Joel Hurt sat in the council chamber and heard the alderman's speech.
Alderman Johnson began his speech by saying he wanted to be fair to all parties concerned in the franchise situation. He said he would never vote, though, to give the street railway company a franchise for anything as long as it claimed the city's streets.
The argument was for an immediate settlement of the question whether the Atlanta Railway company controlled the streets of Atlanta under the state laws, or whether the city had the control. He said as long as the railway people claimed control and threatened to take the streets for their conduits, whether or not council was willing, he would never vote to give them the rights of the streets. He read parts of a letter Mr. Woodruff sent to electricity consumers, in which he said the company is now erecting a plant and would soon be able to furnish power and light, showing that the company was already in open defiance of the council.
CANDIDATE FOR HEMP.
Negro Brutally Assaults Young Lady and Leaves Her For Dead.
A negro brutally assaulted and nearly murdered Miss Ida Enzer, daughter of one of the most prosperous farmers of Cobb county, Ga., at Molver's station on the Western & Atlantic railroad about ten miles from Atlanta, Monday afternoon.
The young lady was returning home after a visit to friends and was met in a lonely place on a public road by the negro. He beat her almost into insensibility and left, thinking, perhaps, that she was dead.
Meat For Troops In Orient.
Chicago packers have been asked by the government to furnish 2,000,000 pounds of meats within thirty days for the American soldiers in the orient. This is said to be the largest requisition ever issued by the government of the United States:

BIG BATTLE; HEAVY LOSS
Allies Go Against Chinese Forces On March to Pekin.
Fight Occurred at Pietsang, a Village Six Miles Out From Tien Tsin on the Road to Pekin.
The following cablegrams were received at the navy department Monday:
"CHE Foo, August 6.—Bureau Navigation, Washington: British officer reports, unofficial, engagement at Peitsang Sunday morning, 3 to 10:30. Allied loss, killed and wounded, 1,200, chiefly Russians and Japanese. Chinese retreating. TAUSSIG."
"CHE Foo, August 6.—Bureau Navigation, Washington: Unofficial report believed to be reliable. About 16,000 allies heavily engaged Chinese at Peitsang daylight of the 5th. REMYX."
According to the information in possession of the war department, the town of Peitsang is at the head of tidewater on the Pei Ho, between eleven and twelve miles by road beyond Tien Tsin. It is a village of mud-buts of considerable size, but not wallied. The river at this point is not navigable by anything larger than a good sized steam launch, and it, is thought that the troops probably reached there in small boats, towed by the naval launches.
The country all along the river between Pekin to Tien Tsin is a low, alluvial plain, almost impassable for wheeled vehicles in the wet season and under quite a high state of cultivation. It presents no natural defensive features, and the war department knows no strategic reason why the Chinese should have made a stand there rather than at any other of the dozen villages, east of the walled town of Tung Chow, where is stored an immense amount of provisions.
From the fact that the engagement lasted seven hours, it is argued in the department that either the Chinese must have been heavily entrenched or there was an immense horde of them to so stubbornly contest the advance of 16,000 international troops. It is figured by military experts that a loss of 1,200 killed and wounded on the part of the allies probably means a loss of from three to six times as many of the Chinese.
It is possible that a blow of this magnitude may break the resistance of the Chinese to the advance of the foreign column, but on the other hand, it is possible that this may be one of a large number of places on the road, that have been intronched with a view to falling back and contesting the foreign advance so as to delay as long as possible the arrival of the foreigners at Pakin. Unless the opposing suddenly breaks down the military experts look for a desperate engagement when the troops reach the walled city of Tung Chow, which is said to be even more favorably located for purposes of defense than Tien Tsin.
Little doubt was expressed at the navy department that the news from Remey was substantially correct. It is probable a later report may reduce the list of casualties among the international forces, but it is evident that the move on Pekin is at last fairly under way, and that strong opposition has been encountered.
The war department officials, who have been exceedingly reticent for several days as to news from the seat of war, admitted when the naval dispatches were received that the announcement of the battle was not unexpected. Opinion among the various officials now in Washington is somewhat divided as to just what is presaged by the day's events. The more optimistic are inclined to think that such a severe blow as the Chinese must have received at Peitsang will result in the speedy disintegration of the forces now opposing the march of the international column.
Experts Pass on Suspicious Cases of Illness at Tamps, Fla.
A special from Tamps, Fla., says: An official statement signed by State Health Officer J. Y. Porter and J. H. White, marine hospital service, issued Monday night, declares two suspected cases to be not yellow fever. One is reported as typhoid.

An Unfortunate Affair.
On Saturday last a very unfortunate affair took place on one of the Isle of Hope cars which resulted in the death of one man. It is reported that a colored man name Seaborn Hayes was on the cars with a companion and was quarreling and using improper words. He was ejected from the car with the assistance of the passengers, and awaited an opportunity for revenge which came when he cowardly shot the motorman upon a return trip of the car. The mortorman died from the effects of the shot and Hayes is still at large, although earnest efforts have been made to apprehend him. Its occurrence is regretted no more by any class of citizens than the colored ones. They regret it more because it has somewhat ruffle a feeling that has always been cordial in this community and which feeling the better element still maintains. There are some incidents about the affair that have been unpleasant and wholly unlawful, and that was the gathering of a number of men around the place where the shooting occurred for the purpose of arresting the accused and as has been expressed lynch him. The gathering of such mobs are wholly unlawful and should not be allowed. The friends of the dead man should be commended for endeavoring to apprehend the accused, but the officers of the law should not allow armed bodies of men to gather for this purpose unless they were duly deputized to do so. The colored citizens' would like to have the accused apprehened, tried and if found guilty legally punished.
Jeff Davis and the Negro.
Here is something for certain local newspapers who oppose Negroes as soldiers to ponder over. The article is an extract from the great writer and authority on the Civil war, Mayor Sidney Herbert of Florida, and it will be read with great interest:
A correspondent seems to doubt my statement that President Davis favored enlisting Negroes in the Confederate army as soldiers. It is true that in the earlier part of the war he was not favorable to such a step, but later on he change his views, and on Feb. 21, 1865, he wrote as follows to Hon. John Forsythe, editor of the Mobile, Ala., Register: "The article enclosed from the Register and Advertiser is a substantial expression of my own views on the subject of employing for the defense of our country all able-bodied men we have, without distinction to color. It is now becoming daily more evident to all reflecting persons that we are reduced to choosing whether the Negroes shall fight for us or against us and that all arguments as to the positive advantages or disadvantages of employing them are beside the question, which is simply one of relative advantage between having their fighting element in our ranks or in those of our enemy. On the other topic suggested by you, making use of this subject ar an aid for negotiations, you will appreciate the obligation of reticence imposed on me in those matters, and I can only say that I perceive no discordance in the views you express from that wise policy would dictate." But the final decision in regard to the use of Negroes as soldiers came too late and was never put into actual practice. Earlier in the war some of the best generals were in favor of it, but were overruled by the higher powers—military and civil.
Tuskegee Topics.
Rev. Francis M. Gow; of Cape Town, South Africa, was a visitor at Tuskegee last week. Rev. Gow came to America to be present at the late General Conference of the A. M. E. Church, and has been visiting in the South since. We were glad to have him inspect our departments. He is anxious to have a number of South African students educated at Tuskegee. Three hundred electric lamps we
in college in an educational school at year, by students of the division of Electrical Engineering, Huntington Hall; the new dormitory for girls, is looking pretentiously important as the finishing touches are being put upon it. It and the new Girls Industrial Building are needed additions, and not only add to the beauty of our grounds, but will afford better facilities for our young women.
CYRUS CAMPFIELD.
Ashburn Notes.
Ashburn, Ga., July 28, 1900. Mr. Editor: Please allow space in your columns to say something about Ashburn and my race. Your correspondent has just reached home from the A M E Sunday-school convention which met at Tifton. The Waycross District of which Rev. W. C. Shelton is the P E and President, is flourishing. Mrs. Shelton was there to assist her husband in the work. She is the right woman in the right place, and a blessing to her husband, her church and her race.
Your correspondent was a delegate from the Ashburn Sunday-school and the following young ladies were associated with him: Misses Lillie Bell Young, Julia Miller, Senie Miller, Hattie Johnson, and Mr. Willie Robinson. Our Sunday-school raised since the last convention $122.29. All of our girls read papers on very important subjects. Mrs. G. O. Smith and Master Clyde McKinley Smith staid at home and attended to the domestic affairs. Mrs. Smith says she wants the next Annual Conference to meet in Ash burn instead of Waycross, as we are so far ahead of Waycross. If a man wants a good wife he will do well to see our girls, but of course they are not looking for husbands.
Our pastor here is Rev. E. G. Gatlen, and he might get him a wife but poor "Gat." seems to be in hard luck on that line. But we will help him for he must have a wife. We think it would be a good idea for him to try the maiden's papa. She has four houses and lots and has just received the hundred dollars from the K. of P., and she is a right looking old lady.
Miss Senie Miller thinks your correspondent is not a good hack driver since he drove into a ditch in Tifton.
Death's Reaping
Please allow me space in your columns to inform your readers of the death of Bro. Robert Bryant who died July 18th. He was a faithful member of First A. B. church of Poulon, Ga., and was one of those old time pious Christians, who never complained of his burden. He was also a member of Green Mountain Lodge No. 130 of Masons, at Poulon. He was a mason at heart, always ready and willing to do what was required of him. He was faithful even unto death. Bro. Bryant's many friends and brothers throughout the community where he was known, mourns his lost, but yet we bow in submission to Him who doeth all things well.
Bro. Bryant was 65 years of age. He leaves a host of relatives and friends to mourn his loss. He was laid to rest in the Green Mountain Cemetery at Sylvester, Ga., under the Masonic ceremonies which were conducted by Bro. J. W. Manuel, W. M. of Green Mountain Lodge, and members at 5 o'clock p. m., July 19. The memorial service will be held at the First African Baptist Church at Poulon, Ga., August 26, at 11 o'clock a.m., the Masonic ceremonies to be conducted by the Green Mountain Lodge. Everyone is invited to be present and pay the last tribute of respect to a beloved Christian Brother and a true Mason at heart.
Yours fraternally,
A. L. McDonald, Sec'y.
I beg leave for space in your valuable columns for the following information. Savannah now cradles in its infancy a literary society, a thing much needed and long looked for. It is composed of the students of the various southern schools and colleges together with the energetic young people residing here and endeavoring to make a mark for themselves. The designs and intentions of this organization are to draw the young people into a more loving and stronger union and to stimulate interest in literary work. Aside from the literary features it is proposed to discuss the leading questions and-topics of the day and from the same derive many unseen benefits. This movement is one that is worthy of commendation, and has been much thought of by our professional men, but it has never materially been put into action. Therefore a few has gone forth and undertaken to put this move on foot. They hope their incessant efforts will not prove futile and be in vain. The time now, is when our young folks must grasp their opportunities and chances with fervency and renewed spirit, and show forth the capabilities of their latent forces and energies. There have arisen at intervals similar organizations in which older
folks were at the head, but these thrive at the beginning and flourish for a while, then sink into oblivion. The young people need to impart and use theories and benefits they achieve at school and put them to the best advantage. In order to do this they must evince great interest and use their untiring efforts in these small things. They've to remember that, it is they who must work out their own destiny and salvation. It is appalling and discouraging, to see how many of our young people are disconcerned and adversed to and how many who do not exert themselves in affairs that are ennobling and uplifting and in which they should be engaged. The time has now arrived when much is expected of the young Negro; and no little pains should be spared on us, for upon us largely depends the future hope of the race. The young Negro of to-day will be the old Negro of tomorrow. If we fail what hope and consolation is there left to us, and if we fail in these small affairs what will we do and what may we, hope for in the larger enterprises in which we contemplate engaging. Any who approves and desires to become a member are requested to send their application to the society for action. The public is extended a cordial invitation to attend its meetings. The presence of the public among us would indicate their interest in us, and would be a source of encouragement and inspiration to the society.

In Memory of Mrs. Bina McFadden.
A place in our home is vacant,
There from a dear one hast gone,
Gone to the Spirit land,
Where parting is no more.
At the home altar "mother",
We shall miss thee but we rejoice
To know that thon hast joined
That host inumerable, that host
That praises God upon harp and Psalter.
"Mother" never more shall we hear thy gentle
voice,
But when the day of life shall end,
We too, shall cross the Mystic river,
And join thee in thy glory,
Where parting is no more.

"Twas hard to break the tender cord
Where love had bound our hearts;

We must forever part.

In the peaceful grave's embrace.
But thy memory will be cherished
Til we see thy heavenly face"

The American Working Man.
Much comparison has been made between the endurance of the Chinese and the American working man. Those with authority to speak say that the average working man of America is as superior to the Chinese as Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is to any other dyspepsia cure. The Bitters does not claim to cure everything, but it does cure constipation, indigestion, dyspepsia, biliousness, liver and kidney troubles, and prevents malaria, fever and ague.

Dear Mrs. PINKHAM:
I have taken Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound as advised and now send you a letter for publication. For several years I was in such wretched health that life was almost a burden. I could hardly walk across the floor, was so feeble. Several of our best physicians attended me, but failed to help. I concluded to write to you for advice. In a few days I received such a kind, motherly letter. I followed your instructions and am my 'old self' again. Was greatly benefited before I had used one bottle. May God bless you for what you are doing for suffering women." — Mrs. CLARA GATE, John P. O., Miss., Oct. 6, 1899.
Some Wonderful Wounds.
Quartermaster Sergeant Johnson, Second Beds, writes from Bloemfontein: "I went to see Sergeant Shimmans in the hospital here. A bullet hit him on the outside of the knee, passed out at the top, slightly grazing the kneecap, and then again passed through the knee on the left side and through the thigh of the left leg, so that one bullet made six holes, but did not damage any bones seriously. Some of the other men in our regiment have had really marvellous escapes. One man was shot in the left side of the head, the bullet passing out at the front, just above the ball of the eye, and without hurting the eye at all. Another man was shot through the body, just above the heart, and was apparently none the worse, except for a hole through his chest—London Leander.

MR. TOWNE RETIRES
Populist Candidate For Vice President Quits the Race.
HE GIVES HIS REASONS THEREFOR
Writes Letter of Thanks to Populist Notification Committee and Concedes the Field To Stevenson.
Former Congressman Charles A. Towne, who was nominated for the vice presidency by the Populist national convention held at Sioux Falls in May, has sent a letter to the committee of notification announcing his retirement. The letter in part says:
"Hon. H. M. Ringidal, chairman, and the members of the committee on notification of the candidate for vice president of the people's party national convention, held at Sioux Fall, S. D., May 9 and 10, 1900—Gentlemen: When, on the 5th of July, at Kansas City, I had the honor to receive from you the official notification of the action of your national convention in nominating me for the office of vice president of the United States, I requested, in view of analogous and delicate circumstances in the presidential situation, that you permit me to take the subject under careful advisement before announcing a decision either accepting or declining that nomination.
"This request you were pleased to grant, and now, after mature consideration of all the factors involved that concern the welfare of the cause of political reform in this country and my own duty thereto, I am constrained to inform you in all respect that I must decline the nomination tendered me by the Sioux Falls convention.
"It was, of course, the expectation of your convention that its nomination for the vice-presidency would prove acceptable to the conventions of the Democratic and Silver Republican parties called to meet in Kansas City on the Fourth of July. The Silver Republicans, 1,330 delegates, representing twenty-eight states and territories, were indeed eager to name the ticket chosen at Sioux Falls, but to the great Democratic convention another course commended itself.
"The name of your nominee was presented to that convention and was received with remarkable demonstrations of approval by the enormous number of citizen spectators and with the utmost respect by the delegates. But geographical considerations and the fact that in certain parts of the country it was deemed wise to defer to a sentiment demanding that the candidate should be a man already identified with the Democratic organization not only by holding its principles and advocating its cause, but also by name and profession, determined the selection of the Hon. Adlai E. Stevenson, of Illinois, a man of unimpeachable character and of ripe political experience.
"When Mr. Stevenson had been nominated what was it my duty to do? My name had gone before the convention along, with his and I had been beaten. The nomination had been made decisively and with absolute fairness. The candidate chosen was personally unexceeable; his loyalty to our principles was beyond question "Manifestly it was my duty to support that nomination. Act upon this conviction I went before the Silver Republican convention and succeeded in persuading it not to nominate me, and the vice presidential matter was finally referred to the Silver Republican national committee with full powers. Later in the night this committee placed the name of Mr. Stevenson on its ticket as candidate for vice president.
"This recital clearly develops the situation as it now is. Everybody knows that either Mr. Stevenson or Mr. Roosevelt is to be the next vice president of the United States. I am expected to take a laborious part in the campaign. I shall, of course, advocate the election of Bryan and Stevenson. The Democratic convention before which I was a candidate, nominated Bryan and Stevenson. The Silver Republicans, of which organization I was the official head for nearly four years, has nominated Bryan and Stevenson. In what light should I appear before the American people, if while, advocating the election of one ticket, I should be going through the form of running on another? Nobody in the United States would think I had the slightest chance of being elected and nobody would believe that I considered myself seriously as a candidate unless at the same time he believed me to be absolutely lacking in common sense.
"Consistency and candor in politics therefore, my own self respect, proper deference to the People's Party and a sincere regard for the welfare of the cause of political reform in the United States, all counsel that I now respectfully replace in your hands the honorable trust which your great party committed to me in contemplation of a different complexion of affairs than that which has resulted."

Look at your tongue. Is it coated?
Then you have a bad taste in your mouth every morning. Your appetite is poor, and food distresses you. You have frequent headaches and are often dizzy. Your stomach is weak and your bowels are always constipated.
There's an old and reliable cure:
Ayer's Pills Don't take a cathartic dose and then stop. Better take a laxative dose each night, just enough to cause one good free movement the day following.
You feel better the very next day. Your appetite returns, your dyspepsia is cured, your headaches pass away, your tongue clears up, your liver acts well, and your bowels no longer give you trouble.

Yes," answered the proprietor of the show; "and a lot of trouble he made us."

Why Do You Scratch!
When you can cure yourself for fifty cents? All skin diseases, such as tetter, salt rheum, ringworm, eczema, etc., can be surely cured by an ointment called Tetterine. Any number of testimonials shown for the asking. Nothing else is as good. Unless your druggist has it, send 50c. in stamps to the manufacturer, J. T. Shuprine, Savannah, Ga., for a box postpaid.
Beets As a Late Crop.
Beets may be planted as late as July for a successive table crop. Ground that has been well limed suits well. For stock the sugar beet is considered one of the best. Mangel wurzelz grow to large size, but contain more woody fibre and are coarser than sugar beets, though they give larger yields.

Corby's Pole Falz.
One of the most curious of Whitmonday customs is that which is observed once in every twenty years at Corby, Northamptonshire. The inhabitants assemble at an early hour, stop up all roads and byways in the parish and demand toll of all who desire to pass through the village on that day. In case of noncompliance, the traveler is placed on a stout pole and carried vi et armis through the streets, escorted by the shouting populace. "Pole Fair," as it is called, is not without historical interest. It appears that Queen Elizabeth granted the inhabitants of Corby a charter to free them from serving on juries at Northampton, and to free the knights of the shire from the militia law. The custom of taking toll has been observed every twenty years in commemoration of the granting of the charter, and it will be interesting to note whether it will be allowed to fall into desuetude when next due, in 1902—London Obronicle.

Roentgen Rays to Detect Smuggling
Those who would take any improper advantage of the English malls must reckon with the Roentgen rays. According to a member of the Roentgen Society, the officials are now making great use of the rays in looking into the contents of parcels sent through the post. The examination can be made with lightning raidicity. Some time ago watches were smuggled inside Biblea. The rays have done away with that profitable source of income.

Mean's misery on the eve of life. Nine out of ten old people are constipated because the muscles of their intestines have become weak, worn out and flabby. Constipation is the curse of old age, causes bile and acid poisons to remain in the blood, making the skin yellow and wrinkled, the eyes bleary and causing the "bones to ache." Keep the bowels strong, healthy and regular and old age loses all its terrors and weaknesses. No reason why grandpa and grandma shouldn't have bright eyes, and clear ruddy skin and feel lively and active, if they will only keep their bowels open and vigorous with CASCARETS CANDY CATHARTIC, the greatest bowel tonic ever heard of.
