NOTED HEAD-HUNTER GIVES IN General Cailles Finally Signs Agreement of Surrender With His Force of Some Five Hundred Men. A Mnalla special says: Seventeen judges have been appointed to the courts of first instance. Among these appointments there are eleven Americans, who have been given the most important circuits as follows: Manila, Kincald ot Texas and Odlin of New Hampshire; Aparir, Blount of Georgia; Dagupan, Johnson of Michigan; Batangas, Linebarger of Illinois; Nueva Saceras, Carson of Virginia; Iloilo, Bates of Vermont; Negros, Norris of Nebraska; Cebue, Carlock of Illinois; Zamboanga, Ichis of Iowa, and probably be more than 500. Washington Satisfied. Colonels Infant and Guivara, representatives of General Cailles, Saturday signed the name o. their principal to an agreement to surrender. Under the terms of this agreement General Cailles is to assemble his men at Santa Cruz, Jaguna province, as quickly as possible, and there surrender himself and his command to the American authorities. The exact number of his force is uncertain, but there will probably bemore than 500. Officials of the war department are very well pleased with the prospective surrender of General Callies, the Filipino insurgent leader. Advices received at the department indicated that this would occur soon. Callies is a man of considerable influence and with his backing of some hundreds of men has been a menace to the military authorities to stamp out the rebellion in Luzon. His capitulation, therefore, is regarded with much satisfaction by the authorities here, who say they see in it another evidence of the general disintegration of the insurgent force. For more than a year past General Callies has commanded the insurgent forces operating on the east side of Bay Lake not far from Manila. He is said to be a French half caste, and during the last revolution he has acquired a reputation for vindictiveness and cruelty. The Society of Mando-Ducats, whose practice it was to assassinate and bury alive those of their countrymen who accepted American sovereignty whenever the latter fell into their hands, operated with the cognizance, if not the support of General Callies. "At one time Callies offered a reward of $10 for the heads of all Americans, and more recently he offered a reward of $10,000 for the head of Captain Edward N. Jones, Jr., of the Eighth infantry. Since the capture of Aguinaldo General Calilles, who was one of the few insurgent leaders who did not surrender under the terms of amnesty, has been persistently pursued by the American troops. He was said to have been wounded. In one engagement last month, and negotiations for his surrender have been going on with General Sumner for some weeks past. He was declared to be an outlaw by the American authorities, and this fact, which meant that he could not expect to enjoy immunity for his violations of honorable warfare, but would have to stand trial on the many charges against him, doubtless compelled him to prolong his resistance. The members of the federal party advised him to surrender, but this he persistently refused to do until he saw his capture was inevitable. Cailles was a man with considerable influence with the Fillipino people, and an aggressive lighter. He kept his followers well in hand, his system of mobilization was excellent. In the mountains of La Guna province, where Cailles practically confined his operations, he had many advantages over the American troops frequently sent to distodge him, and rendered their efforts futile. He is credited with the Sinaloan affair last year, in which a few American troops were badly cut Citizens of Decatur, Ala., Working to Secure a Right of Way. Sunscriptions are being raised at Lecatur, Ala., to pay the expenses of a committee and attorney to get the right of way for the proposed Decatur, Danville and Southwestern railroad through the county, the committee to start out within the next few days. The road passes through a section rich in timber, coal and iron. James E. Mooney and John Carlisle, of Cincinnati, are interested in the road, and the prospects are bright for its early construction. EX-GOVERNOR PINGREE DEAD. Former Chief Executive of Michigan Dies In London While on Tour of Continent. Ex-Governor H. S. Pingree, of Michigan, died in London Tuesday night at 11:35 o'clock. His son was the only one present at the time. The attending physician left Mr. Pingree's bedside about 11:15 o'clock, promising to return shortly. H. S. Pingree, Jr., who had been watching at his father's side for four days and who had 'not removed his clothes during that time, noticed a sudden change in his father's condition. He had hardly reached the patient's bedside when his father ceded peacefully without warning and without speaking a word. Young Mr. Pingree wired his mother and his uncle in the United States not to come to London. The body will be embalmed and brought to his home. The diagnosis made by London specialists of the cancerous affection of the intestines from which Mr. Pingree suffered left practically no hope for the patient's recovery. Toward the end of his illness Mr. Pingree suffered great pain and weakened rapidly. Hazen Senter Pingree was born at Denmark, Me., in 1840. In 1862 he enlisted in the First Massachusetts heavy artillery and served until the end of the war, when he located in Detroit, embarking in the manufacture of shoes. In 1889 the republican party nominated Mr. Pingree for mayor of Detroit and he was elected. He was re-elected in 1891, 1893 and 1895. In 1896 Mr. Pingree was elected governor of Michigan by $3,000 plurality, running ahead of the national ticket by 26,000 votes. He was re-elected governor in 1898 by about 100,000 plurality and served out his term, which expired in 1900. Last March he started on the trip to South Africa which resulted in his death in London. Ex-Governor Pingree, while he was mayor, accomplished many municipal reforms, among others forcing the gas company to lower their rates 50 cents per thousand; establishing the public lighting plant; organizing the Detroit railway on a 3 cent fare basis; lowering telephone rates and breaking up a number of sewer and paving rings that were thriving when he came into office. His potato patch scheme for relief of the poor of the city was extensively copied and brought him much fame. While governor Mr. Pingree devoted his energies toward securing a law taxing railroads and other corporate property on an ad valorem basis instead of specifically on their earnings. His efforts resulted in the passage of a law along these lines by the last legislature. ROADS ADVANCE THEIR - RATES Classification of Goods Is So Changed that Merchants Will Be Forced to Pay More. Again the southern merchants have cause to complain because of their treatment by the railroads in fixing their schedule of rates. Cotton fabrics, which are said to have been for the past twelve or fifteen years classed as fifth class goods, with a rate of 60 cents per 100 pounds for the haul from New York to Atlanta, are now classed as fourth class goods, and the haul per 100 pounds will cost 73 cents. This is an increase of about.17 3-4 per cent in the price of hauling cotton fabrics from New York to Atlanta, and the merchants of Atlanta declare that it will increase the cost of the goods to them about 1 per cent on the entire cost of every 100 pounds of the goods. The merchants announce that the burden of this practical increase in the rate will fall upon them, as the increase is not sufficient to justify an increase in the price to the trade, although in the end it will amount to considerable to the o. Mormons After Lands In Mexico. A Mormon agent, James M. Cannon, is in Mexico City for the purpose of securing from the government a concession for settling a thousand Mormon families in Sonora, on the lands from which the maqui Indians have been driven. HOT ROAST FOR JULGE. Tarvin Says Decision of United States Court Was Based on Fraud. Judge Tarvin rendered a sensational decision in the Kenton county circuit court at Covington, Ky., Tuesday in the Stricker contempt case. In the decision Judge Tarvin attacks and criticises the federal court, Judge Walter Evans presiding. He says that the decision of the United States court was rendered on records that had been forged. Judge Tarvin points out how the forgeries were made. He says the decision is without precedent and without foundation of truth. He says that the decision was a vindictive use of the power. SAVANNAH. GA.. SATURDAY. JUNE 22,1901. MRS. KENNEDY CONVICTED. Young Kansas City Woman Sentenced to Ten Years' Imprisonment for Murder of Her Betrayer. At Kansas City Saturday the Jury in the Kennedy murder case brought in a verdict of guilty of murder in the second degree, and fixing Mrs. Kennedy's punishment at ten years in the penitentiary. When the verdict was read this remarkable twenty year old prisoner, whose cool, indifferent manner has for five months baffled the jail officials who have had her In charge, looked straight ahead of her. She neither burst out crying nor moved a muscle. Later she expressed her interest, but nothing more, in the formal calling by the court clerk of the cases pending against her father, C. W. Prince, and her brothers, Bert and Will Prince, who are charged with conspiracy to kill Kennedy. While Judge Wofford was dismissing the jurors who had sat on the case for twelve days and reached their verdict after eleven hours' deliberation, the prisoner sat with her chin resting on her hand. A reporter asked if she had anything to say. Mrs. Kennedy ignored the question and continued to look at the judge. Later, when Mrs. Kennedy had been taken into a little room adjoining the court room and the crowd was beginning to leave, sobs and moans were heard. They came from Mrs. Prince, the mother of the prisoner, and Mrs. Leon, the girl's sister. C. W. prince, the father, was trying to pacify them, while Bert Prince paced up and down the corridor sobbing and wringing his hands. Lulu Kennedy sat thoughtful and silent, gazing fixed before her. Taken to her cell she maintained her calm manner. She refused to discuss the verdict. The murder of Kennedy occurred on the evening of February 10th last in the New Ridge building, in the center of the business district. Kennedy, who was contracting agent of the Merchants' Transportation Company, was sitting at his desk in his office when called by Mr. Cross, the woman's physician. Mrs. Kennedy followed the physician closely and asked her husband if he intended to live with her and receiving a negative answer, began shooting. She fired five shots, all of which took effect and any one of which would have proved fatal. Kennedy died almost instantly, the only words escaping his lips were: "It wasn't her gun." Before taken away by the police the woman kicked the prostrate man in the face, remarking: "You will never seduce another girl!" Thomas Kennedy, a brother of the man, tried to wrest the revolver from Mrs. Kennedy's hand when he was struck down by her brother, Will Prince. The couple were married in the circuit court on February 4th, and two days before Kennedy was killed he brought suit to have the marriage set aside, 'alleging duress and charging W. C. Prince, the girl's father, and Will Prince with forcing him to marry her at the point of a revolver. The three Princes are now awaiting trial on a charge of conspiracy to kill Kennedy. Mrs. Kennedy was twenty years old and Kennedy was twenty-eight. An appeal will be taken in the case. SOUGHT WATER; FOUND OIL. Gusher Is Struck Unexpectedly, In Lawrence County, Alabama. Reliable information was received in Decatur, Ala., Saturday that oil has been struck in Lawrence county, twenty-five miles distant. The well is flowing 500 barrels a day. Striking oil there was an accident, as boring was being done for an artesian well. In the same county prospectors discovered a vein of coal more than eleven feet thick. SHOULD TRADE WITH SWEDES. Consul Winslow Urges 'Cultivation of Commercial Friendship. Consul General Winslow, of Stockholm, urges American exporters not to overlook the opportunities for trade in Sweden. The Swedes, he says, are the yankees of Europe, and if their commercial friendship is cultivated, our merchants will find there a growing market for their supplies. CABINET TALKS OF CUBA. Course of Procedure In Island Is Formally Discussed. A Washington special says: The cabinet meeting Friday developed nothing important. There was some talk about the course of procedure in Cuba now that the Cuban convention has adopted the Platt amendment. No action by this government, however, is necessary. Our Big Trade With China. Consul General Goodnow, at Shanghai, says the figures of 1500 show that the United States buys more goods from China than any other nation. PREACHERS IN COURT DENOUMENT IN WHISKY FIGHT Church People Charged that Court Connived With Thieves and Murderers and Prostituted His Position. At Denver, Col., Tuesday Rev. M. A. Rader, pastor of Grace M. E. Church; Rev. W. H. Talmadge, state superintendent of the anti-saloon league and Secretary Walter D. Wynkoop, of the Christian Endeavor Society of Denver, were summoned to answer in Judge Palmer's division of the district court to the charge of contempt. I. P. Stauer, secretary of the Chesapeake Oyster house swore to the charges. Attorney Milton H. Smith, who is acting for the Chesapeake and Daniel Cronlin in the saloon injunction case, appeared as attorney for Mr. Stauer in the contempt cases. Rev. Mr. Rader is cited for contempt on account of having madq the following statement from his pulpit: "The saloon men prevailed upon Judge Palmer two weeks ago to grant an injunction against the enforcement of the law. I have respect for our courts as such, but when the district judge prostitutes the bench to such low ends, I confess I am not astounded, but deeply grieved. Whoever heard of such a procedure? The idea of our court conniving with the law breakers! It is high time to call a halt. I suppose we will soon be informed that a judge will grant injunctions against the enforcement of the laws against thieves and sluggers and murderers." The information against Mr. Talmadge says that in an interview he declared in substance: "That the said Peter L. Palmer was under the control and influence of the saloon men of the city of Denver, and that the said injunctions were issued by him at their behest and that it would be worth while for the saloon men to pay Judge Palmer $20,000 to make the injunction permanent, but that if it were accomplished it would result in a great upheaval of the Christian people of Denver." Mr. Wynkoop is cited in consequence of his issuing the following notice to members of the Christian Endeavor Society: "Dear Endeavorers: It is desired that at the meeting of our Christian Endeavor Society on Sunday night the president state the fact that Judge Palmer has issued a temporary injunction and he will attempt to permit the saloons to reopen all over the city on Sundays unless the better class of the people impress him that he shall not do so. Ask all present who are in favor of the saloons closing on Sundays to raise their hands; all who will attend Judge Palmer's court at 10 a. m. Monday, June 10th, and see that he gives fair play to the Christians of Denver. Yours in the work, Judge Palmer set the contempt case for hearing on June 26th. Argument was then begun on the question of making permanent the injunctions for the issuance of which ministers had criticised the court. These restrain the police board from prohibiting the serving of liquors in the Chesapeake restaurant on Sundays and from excluding women from dance halls and wine rooms. GEORGIA EDITORS TO BUFFALO. Both Associations Will Take In the Big Show Together. Mr. H. H. Caoanlss, president of the Georgia Press Association, announces that arrangements have been completed for the annual meeting and trip of the Georgia Press Association and the Weekly Press Association. President W. S. Coleman, of The Cedartown Standard, had a conference with Mr. Cabanliss some time since, and inasmuch as both associations want to make the trip to the Pan-American exposition, it was decided to embrace both meetings in one. The members of the Georgia Press Association will meet at the Kimball house at 10 o'clock on the morning of July 10th. MISTRIAL IN KENNEDY CASE. Jury Unable to. Decide Fate of Dolly Reynold's Alleged Slayer. A New York dispatch says: The twelve men who, since 12.15 o'clock Saturday afternoon at the conclusion of the judge's charges considered the evidence in the third trial of Dr. Samuel J. Kennedy for the murder of "Dolly" Reynolds, reported to Judge Newburger at 10:25 o'clock Sunday morning that they were unable to agree on a verdict. The judge at once discharged the jury from further service and remanned the prisoner to the Tombs.

Former Minister Plenipotentiary to Venezuela Gets a More Congenial Assignment. The following changes in diplomatic posts was announced at Washington Monday: Francis B. Loomis, minister to Venezuela, has been transferred to minister to Portugal, vice John N. Irwin, of Illinois, resigned. Herbert W. Bowen, of New York, present minister to Persia, has been transferred to Caracas, succeeding Mr. Loomis as minister to Venezuela. Lloyd C. Criscom, of Pennsylvania, present first secretary of legation at Constantinople, has been made minister to Persia. Spencer F. Eddy, of Illinois, present second secretary at Paris, has been made first secretary at Constantinople to succeed Mr. Griscom. Arthur Bailly Blanchard, of Louisiana, has been promoted from third to second secretary at Paris. By his transfer from Venezuela to Portugal, Minister Loomis, who is now leave in England, loses $2,500 a year. The salary at Lisbon is $7,500 and that at Caracas $10,000 per annum. But Mr. Loomis finds sufficient compensation in the climatic change and in the probability of more congenial duty at his new post. Beside, his actual rank is the same in either case, namely, minister extraordinary and envoy plenipotentary. Mr. Bowen, who becomes the new minister to Venezuela, has a most creditable record in the consular and diplomatic service. He became United States consul at Barcelona in 1890 and his office at that post was raised to the rank of consul general five years afterwards. Mr. Bowen stuck to his post through the exciting days preceding the Spanish-American war as long as any American could have found safety on Spanish soil. At the conclusion of the war he was about to return to his old post, but instead was appointed minister resident and consul general to Persla. The change so far as it concerns the Venezuelan minister is said at the state department to have no particular political significance. Mr. Loomis goes elsewhere than Caracas at his own request and desire. It is true that the Venezuelan government has expressed dissatisfaction with Mr. Loomis in more ways than one, but the fact that the minister is not removed from the diplomatic service, but is given another post of equal dignity and honor, is a mark of the esteem of the state department. Also, it may be noted, Mr. Bowen, the new minister, goes to his post with instructions on the same line as those supplied to Mr. Loomis, which formed the basis for his action, so that Mr. Bowen, who is a man of great vigor, is likely to follow Mr. Loomis' footsteps in the matter of policy. STRIKERS FAIL TO RESPOND. Newport News Shipbuilding Company Lay Off Many Men and Will Virtually Close Down. Twelve hundred men from the various departments Monday were laid off at the plant of the Newport News Ship Building and Dry Dock Company, and as many more will be laid off at once if the striking machinists do not return to work. The management will retain only enough men to handle the repair work, notably the North German Lloyd liner Main, which is being rebuilt. The machinists show no disposition to return to work, only two or three responding Monday morning when the yard opened. The departments chiefly affected are those of the boiler makers, blacksmiths, carpenters and joiners and ship fitters. ANARCHIST BRANDED TRAITOR. Group at Paterson Burn Letter "T" On Hand of Former Comrade. All through the one of the men who have composed the Paterson, N. J., group of anarchists will carry upon the back of his right hand a livid "T" burned in the flesh and marking him as a traitor in the cause to which he swore devotion. The branding was done at a picnic in Liberty park, Ridgewood, L. I. The incident may be made the subject of an official investigation, based upon a complaint made by the Italian consul. PLANT MACHINISTS GIVE NOTICE. Demand Work Day of Nine Hours. Strike Grows at Savannah. Strike Grows at Savannah. The strike of the railroad machinists in Savannah, Ga., appears to be growing. While the Seaboard Air Line officials say that they are getting along all right with the new men employed, the machinists in other railroads are said to be contemplating going on a sympathetic strike to aid their fellow-workmen of the Seaboard in gaining their ends. Monday the Plant system machinists gave notice that they must be given a working day of nine hours in the future or they would go out. NO 37. FROM HIGH TRESTLE Seaboard Train Takes Frightful Plunge Into a Pond. ALL ON BOARD WERE INJURED Two Will Probably Die From Wounds Received—Acts of Noble Heroism Displayed By the Trainmen. Sunday night, about 10 o'clock, the northbound Seaboard Air Line Atlanta special train turned broadside off a trestle into a pond, about a mile north of Rockingham, N. C. There were on board about twenty-five or thirty passengers, all of whom were more or less injured, several very seriously, and two, a white man and a negro, probably fatally. There were three ladles and some children aboard, none of whom were seriously hurt. The engine and two mail cars passed over in safety, but the combination baggage and second, first-class and two Pullmans turned over. On account of the rains the pliers of the trestle gave way on the left side. the first crash all lights were out water rushed in waist-deep the windows.

Fearful Mortal Babies In "Con of the British A London special questions in the hoi Monday; Mr. Broderick, an tary, said there were 40,229 the "concentration camps" Transvaal and Orange River The deaths in these camps 1. month of May number 98 men an men and 318 children. The annou ment of the mortality was receive with groans from the Irish members and cries of "Scandalous." Mr. Broderick added that the authorities were arranging for the release of the women and children who had friends to receive them, but the government could not undertake to feed them in isolated positions. The division in the house of commons on the motion made by Mr. Lloyd-George, Welsh nationalist, to adjourn the house on the question of the treatment of Boer women and children, which was rejected by a vote of 253 to 134, served to accentuate the split in the liberal party on the government's war policy. Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman, the liberal leader, supported Mr. Lloyd-George in denouncing the policy of concentrating women and children in camps, and with Sir William Vernon-Harcourt, liberal, and the Rt. Hon. William Bryce, liberal, voted in the minority on Mr. Lloyd-George's motion. About fifty liberal imperialists, led by the Rt. Hon. H. H. Asquith, advanced liberal, and Sir Edward Grey, liberal, abstained from voting, as a protest against the Bannerman-Harcourt-Morley section of the house of commons identifying themselves so closely with the extreme pro-Boers. The Daily News and The Chronicle, respectively the organs of the proBoer and imperialist sections, display the greatest irritation at this open split in the liberal party. Lord Kitchener has not yet cabled the details of the reverse of the 250 Victorian mounted rifles of General Beatson's column at Steenkoelspruit, June 12th. WEST VIRGINIA ROW ENDS. President Agrees to Appoint Officials Named By Lilkin and Scott. The contest over the West Virginia judgeship was settled Monday when Senators Elkins and Scott of that state, presented to President McKinley a slate for the officers of the new southern judicial district. The president agreed to the names, which are as follows: B. F. Kellar, of Mercer county, United States district judge. John K. Thompson, of Putnam county, United States marshal.

THE convention of pressmen in Washington very wisely laid aside a resolution prohibiting its members joining the national guard. Such resolutions are unpatriotic and un-American. It is authoritatively stated that Senator Platt will quit politics after his term expires. He predicts that Gov. Odell of New York will be re-elected and later elected as president of the United States. TILLMAN seems to be very much afraid of McLaurin so much so that he is endeavoring by artful means to get him out of the Democratic primary. This country would be better off with Tillman as a private citizen. ALL of the malcontents of the various parties met at Kansas City, Mo., during the week to organize. All of the, principles of the Third Party are retained, and they expect to make a decided stand in the national campaign in 1904. There is much talk of Candidate Bryan leading the forces. By the solicitation of the green grocers, the mayor has compelled all hucksters to take out a license and denying them the right to sell before 10:30 o'clock in the morning. This is matter of great injustice to great part of the wage earners of identity, and the hope is expressed in order will be rescinded or court of this a colored man committing a a colored wo- committed a justice was commit- e, is very he white the full very high- ce upon which every those who not to do so, in a no un- law with lawlessness occurred during the week. Last week the center was murdered; men were arrested. A number of officers, and bold threats were made. The suspect was not arrested. The child-be-lynchers declared whom as he was caught there after a lynching. The officers were of this and did nothing further to thwart it and after the crime was made, allowed the mobsters to lynch two of the accused. This is connivance with lawlessness and the officials stand guilty of impeachment. MANY of us are setting upinely by and allowing opportunities to pass by which we could do something for the benefit of our people. Other than the Charity Hospital, there is no other benevolent institution in the city that is fostered by our people. This is not a creditable showing, especially as there is so much charitable work to be done for the uplifting of our people. For instance, there are hundreds of poor boys and girls on the streets unable to secure any kind of schooling. They are drifting about being educated into crime. Something should be done to help these boys and girls. With all of the facilities they have, the whites are preparing to erect a home and day nursery for the unfortunate ones of their people. Do we not need such an institution? Could we not maintain such an institution? The poor old ones among us should be considered. It is incumbent upon us to help them. We will be no better off until we pay more attention to the less fortunate ones in our midst. Religious Contest. Last Sunday was a day of inspiration and much interest at the St. Luke Baptist church at Sapelo Island. This is one of the churches of which Rev. R. H. Thomas is pastor. On this occasion there were gathered people from all sections of the county to take a part in the exercises, which were to be a rally and contest of four choirs, in singing for a handsome silver cup. At 11 o'clock in the morning a soul stirring, memorial sermon was preached by Rev. Thomas, who took for his text, "This day shalt thou be with me in paradise;" the subject being "A sinner with Jesus." The discourse was delivered in an able manner, and was highly appreciated by all present. Much regret was expressed on account of the inability of a large number of persons being admitted to the church. After the sermon a special effort was made to augment the funds on hand for building purposes. Nearly $35.00 were raise in a short while. The amount raised is now sufficient to commence work on the new church building, which will begin on the first of the month. After this collection was raised, a recess of thirty minutes was taken, after which the contest of the choirs took place. The following church choirs were in the contest: Friendship Baptist church, Harris Neck; Elm Grove Baptist church, Hudson; First African Baptist church, Sapelo Island; St. Luke Baptist church, Sapelo Island. Five judges were selected, one by each church and the fifth one by the pastor. The judges were: Mrs. Lena Hutchinson, Mrs. Mary Lewis, Mr. Samuel Dixon, Mr. William Spaulding and Deacon Sawney Dunham. Each choir sang four pieces at interval. At the close of the singing the judges retired and made up the decision, which was that the singing was excellent, and far above what was expected. The Elm Grove and the Friendship choirs were accredited as being the best and the judges could not discriminate as to which one excelled, but the chairman in rendering the decision, was inclined to the Friendship choir, which was presented the beautiful cup. Unusual for such a contest, the very best order prevailed and there was not the slightest displeasure shown on account of the decision, which speaks well for the pastor and people. This meeting was declared by the most intelligent citizens of the county, as being the grandest ever witnessed, Deacon Abram Bell, one of the oldest citizens, in behalf of his fellow-citizens, expressed himself as being highly gratified over the exercises; that such an affair has never before been so grand, and it tends to the enlightenment and religious upliftment of the people, and commends such in lieu of bickering and division. Everybody present expressed themselves as having a real enjoyable time and hope for the same to be repeated. Rev. Thomas is doing a great work among these people. He being a gentleman of true Christian principles, a lover of morality and honest living, sits as a beacon light for these people and is carrying them to a standard-that is necessary for a good religious life. College Dots. Bright prospects for an excellent and large attendance at the institute. Large delegations of teachers arrived Sunday and Monday from Washington, Lawrence and Jefferson and adjacent counties. Prof. H. L. Walker has arrived from Augusta. He is to be one of the instructors. Prof. Elder of Sandersville will arrive next week to give instructions in normal and industrial training. Principal McIntosh and Principal Ross, together with other local teachers are to be among the instructors. Supt. Ashmore and Supt. Lane of Augusta are to take a prominent part in the course. Instructor Hymes has gone up to become a benedict. Good boy. Instructor Cobb and Frank went to Alabama. Mr. Cobb returned on Monday to take a part in the institute. Instructor Pearson has gone to South Carolina to see his relatives. He writes back that he is having a grand time in Tillman's Diocese. Miss Essie Wright has gone to Augusta on a trip of recreation. Miss Mamie Kelly of Brooklyn, N. Y., stopped over a few days with friends on the campus. She is the teacher of drawing at the Tuskegee Institute. Several of our students are working at their trade in Savannah. A number will be engaged in putting the finishing touches on the new dormitory. Our bachelor instructors are beginning to get ready for the institute's bachelor girls. Signs indicate that there will be more of these than of those. The Vice-President has put on his sweetest smile for the occasion. It is hoped that—— Messra Shootes and Hoskins seem to have trouble in breaking away to their summer field of labor. They are over due in Brunswick. Visited Columbus. A flying trip was made to Columbus the first of the week by a TRIBUNE representative, the sole purpose being to visit the head of the great masonic fraternity in this state, Grand Master Jerry. We found him much improved, and surrounded by Mrs. Terry, his daughters, Mrs. Caffey of Montgory, Als., Mrs. Ione Swann, his sons and other relatives. Our visit being so brief we were unable to see many friends. We were cared for at the home of Professor and Mrs W. H. Spencer. The professor is surrounded with happiness and comfort. He has an amiable help-mate, four beautiful daughters and the pride of the household, a baby boy. The professor will visit our city next week. Columbus can boost of two enterprises of a commendable kind—drug stores; the Queen City and the People's drug stores, the Mayer and Dr. Swann are the proprietors of one, with Dr. Swann's brother as pharmacist. The other is owned by Prof. Spencer, with Dr. Turner as pharmacist. These stores are thronged by the young people especially on Sunday afternoons, where delicous and cool drinks are served. The two physicians, Dr. Mayer and Swann, have good practices and are well-thought of by the citizens. Dr. Cobb is the only dentist in the city, of color, and is holding his own. It was our pleasure to visit St. James A. M. Er burch on Sunday night. Rev. J. B. Epton, formerly of this city, is pastor in charge. When we reached the church it was crowded to its utmost, the occasion being a special sermon to the Sons and Daughters of Tabor, also to the juvenile society of said order. They were out in a large number and Rev. Epton preached to them a sermon in keeping with the order, which was enjoyed by all. The many friends of the reverend will be glad to know that he is doing well and building up his church. We visited the home of Mr. and Mrs. Yarbrough, where we met Mis-Sammie and the other sisters. Miss Sammie will be remembered favorably by many. She spent several weeks with us last summer. We ran across Rev. Le O'neal who pastored here awhile. He is the presiding elder of the Columbus district. Rev. O'neal is a wholesouled and jovial gentleman. We had planned to visit several other friends, but our short time prevented us doing so. Waycross News. Waycross, Ga. June 13, 1901. The Waycross High School held its 13th, annual closing exercise Friday night, June 7, 8 p. m. Owing to the break in the school year, due to the scarlet fever, that caused the loss of so many weeks, the class numbering four could not finish the year. The class consisted of essays, solos, recitations, a grand play and a May celebration. The children as a whole rendered their parts excellently. They had a good house. The essay of "Welcome" read by Ida B Welch is very good and delivered with great compsure. Recitation by little Connuco Cooper, age five, was greatly applauded.

MBER OF DEAD A PROBLEM = —— fx Northfield Collides With the Mauch hunk and Fearful Panle a emf Among Passengers f Both Vessels. + A New York special says: The wooden side-wheeler, Northfield, which has been in the service of the Staten Island Ferry Company for the past 38 years, was rammed Friuay night by the steel hulled propeller Mauch Chunk, used as a ferry boat by the Central Railroad of New Jersey. The collision occurred just off the Staton island ferry slip at the foot of White- hall street, and in less than ten min- utes after the Northfield, which was crowded with passengers, sank at the outer end of the Spanish line pier in the East river. ‘lae Mauch Chunk, which was badly damaged, landed the two dozen passengers who were aboard of her, Over a hundred of the passengers of the sunken Northfield were dragged out of the water by peo- ple along the snore and the crews of the fleet of river tugs which promptly responded to the ferry boat's call for help. - ‘A few of the Northfield’s passengers were hurt in the accident, and the po- lige believe that some lives were lost. Captain Daliel Gully, of the tug boat Mutual, who saw the ferry boats crash together, says that immediately after the collision between twenty-five and thirty of the passengers leaped into the water and many of those perished. Captain Gully also declares that he is sure over a hundred of the North- field's passengers were drowned. The captains of the other tug boats who wore early on the scene, however, are inclined to think that the disaster was not so serious as regards the loss of Mfe. Thus fay no dead bodies have been recovered. ¥ ‘The reasonsfor such a difference of opinion as to the extent or the disaster is that the wildest excitement prevail- ed on the Northfield, The -ug Mutual saved in all about seventy-five persons from the Northfield, and: the tugs Unity and Arrow saved between them 150 peesons. Two policemen of the Oid Slip sta- tion claim to have rescued nearly thir- ty people between them. As soon ag the crowu which had followed the eink. ing ferry boat along the river front were able to render any aid, they worked with a will, and ia many in- stances men sprang into the water to save life. The greatest service was rendered by the tug boats, which, as. soon as It was possible, circled around the Nortafield and made a bridge to the Spanish line pler, and men and women clambered over the tugs to the shore. « ‘The swift running fiood tide and the question of which boat has the right of way was the cause of the disaster. Captain Abrabam Johnson was in charge of the Northfield and Captain S. U. Griffin was in command of tho Mauea Chunk, Each lays the blame for the collision on the other. The officials o: the Staten Island ferry boat said that there were proba- bly not over 600 passengers on the Northtield at the time of the collision. The passengers say that the usual rush crowd was aboard and that it numbered fully 1,200 men, women and children. Captain Abraham Johnson, of the Northfleld, was arrested about mid- night qn a charge of criminal negli- gence. MAY BE THIRTY VICTIMS. Port Royal Mine Disaster. A dispatch from Port Royal, Pa, says: Rumors are abroad tnat more men than the eighteen first accounted for are burned in the Port Royal mine.

PROSPECTIVE STEAMSHIP LINE. Blg Company Agrees to Make Charles- ton a southern Terminus. ‘The Merchants’ Exchange of Charles- ton, 3. C., is at ‘work on plans for the establishment of another steamship line between that port and Boston and New York. The Atlantic Coast Steam- ship Company, which hag been operat- ing a Ine between Georgetown and New York, has agreed to make Charleston the southern terminus, pro- vided the proper arrangements as to freight can be concluded. BRI_TISH-AMERICAN PLAN. Fors'Settlement of Chinese Indemnity # **Question May Prevail. The news dispatches from Pekin Yonvey to the official mind of Wash- ington the belief that what Is known as the British-American plan of sct- ting the indemnity question is mak- ing heaaway and that {t will be adopt- ea in the end as the only feasible scheme. The firm attitude of the United States in declining to ‘enter into a joint guarantee of the enormous bond issue is believed to have had its effect In inducing the ministers to ac- cept the British-American proposition. It is certain that any movement to- ward the settlement of this indemnity question must result in unanimity to be effective, Although often mention- ed, details of the British plan have not heretofore been given. From an au- thoritative source they are learned te be as follows: The Chinese government is to issue bonds to each of the powers to the amount of the indemnity due each. These bonds are to bear 4 per cent in- terest, with a clause providing one- halt of 1 per cent for amortization. Certain of the Chinese revenues now specifically designated In the proposi- tion are to be earmarked for the liq- uldation of the bonds. A committee appointed by the forelgn powers Is to take charge of the questiona relat- ingg to the revenues chus ear-marked, and the committee is to arrange de- talls by which the revenues are to be applied on the tonds, In case ot de- fault on the bonds, the default {s to be to the committee and not to the sever- al powers. “| REGRET TO ANNOUNCE.” Kitchener Notifies London of Another Licking By the Boers.
