Nev STABBED IN THE BOWELS. | A White Man t ut Down on Oglethorpe Street It) ! Last night about 11 o’clock a telephone message j was received at this office, saying that a man hud * bean dangerously cut on Oglethorpe street, near the Centennial stores. A reporter was at once dispatched to the scene, and found a white man I lying on the sidewalk, north of the Perry house, 1 in apparently a dying condition. There I was a crowd around him, hut no one j seemed to know how and by whom the unfortu nate man was cut. Drs. Cameron and Sheridan i had been summoned mid were present, but had i made no examination of the wound, j John Kimbrough, a white man who keeps a little store near the Perry house, said that the white man and a negro came to his place togeth- ; or. The white man stopped and asked him a question, while the negro passed | on a short distance and also stopped. The white mini, who was quite drunk, walked on i towards the corner and overtook the negro. In a moment he heard blows, and looked and saw the two men lighting. He could not tell who had struck the first blow, but when he looked he saw the white man recovering himself as if he had been knocked hack against the shop on the corner. The two men then clinched and he heard the white man say, “you have stab bed me.” The negro then ran up the street anil the white man staggered off and finally fell on the sidewalk, about one hundred* feet south of the corner where the fight look place. Kim brough said that he did not know the negro, hut that the white man’s name was James Mills. The police, who were on the spot soon after the cutting, we at earnestly to Work to ascertain who had done it. Mills was in an unconscious condi tion. and could not tell anything about the trouble. At a late hour the police got a clue which lends them to believe that the cutting was done by a negro known as Dr. Brooks alias Mil ler, who is a vendor of a patent liniment. The negro was in the northern liberties after the cut ting. His clothing was bloody and his face bruised. He was taken in charge by parties who started to bring him into the city, but he told them that lu* had been attacked by a man who struck him in the face and drew a pistol on him, and it was decided best to release him. The police, however, are keeping a diligent lookout for him, and he will no doubt be arrested before the sun sets to day. Mills is nn employe of the Swift factory. He has no family, but lives in a little house on Mer cer street. He is dangerously, if not fatally, cut in the bowels, but at a late hour the physicians were unable to say what the result would be, as he wus under the intluence of liquor. He was taken to his home and his wound dressed, and he may probably be in a condition this morning to tell all about the difficulty. bursting the balloons. New Targets UmmI by the Columbus Guii Club.

He was al ways firm in his own convictions of right, but never disregardfhl ofthe opinions of others. None who knew him well could doubt the integrity of his character, for he was a man who never know ingly did a fellow-man an injustice. His death is sincerely regretted by a large circle of friends.

Sealk, Ala., June 16. —Yesterday your repre sentative called on George B. Davis, sentenced to be hung for the murder of Archie Reams. The date fixed for the hanging is Friday, 26th of this month. The execution will be private, yet there will be a great many people here that day. Sheriff Bella!) y will have a guard consisting of about 100 armed men. Davis had his hair cut I closely and was freshly shaven. He is the pic ture of health and his general appearance is not j that of a criminal. Davis greeted the reporter ! cordially and was iu a very talkative mood. He talks about the crime freely, and says that the mere idea of death does not Double him. “It is what lies beyond the grave that worries me now,” said he; “I know that I am a sinner and I do not feel that (Rid has forgiven my sins. I pray the best I know how and read the word of God con stantly.” “My mother,” he continued, “does not know that I am to he hung, and I had rather she would not, as it would kill her in her present weak con dition.” Davis said that he was well provide*! lor, and needed nothing except spiritual comfort.

The Terrible Experience of n 1 Oil tig California Scout. From the Chico (Cal.i Chronicle. A sick und sorry looking specimen of humanity stepped from the passenger train last night and climbed into a waiting I wngon and was driven to the country. His l name was Samuel Neff. He is a man of about thirty years of age, and his parents reside in Pine Creek. Young Neff is just home from Arizona, where he has been prospecting in the mines, and acting as a scout on the hunt for Indians. Un fortunately for him he found the mur derous red devils, and they almost made mince-meat of him. One day while riding through a canon he was shot through the shoulder, and fell front his horse. His assailants, finding that he was not dead, tortured him outrageously. They cut gashes in his face and all over his body, applied fire to his feet and hands, and ended their brutal assaults by scalping him. He suffered untold agonies ana prayed that death might relieve him. Finally he fell into a faint, and upon awakening he found himself being kindly eared for in a miner’s cabin. The miner had picked him up and carried him a long distance on horseback. Neff suffered weeks of excruciating pain and raved with a fever, and as soon as he was able to travel be took the road for home. Last evening u Chronicle reporter asked Neff how he felt to have his hair lifted. 11 It is a dreadful sensation,” he said. “ One thinks, as the skin is being torn from the skull, that his feet are coming right up through his body to the top of his head. Oh, it is terrible. It is so painful that you can not utter a cry and thousands of stare dance before your eyes. You imagine red hot needles are darting in and out of your llesh and you clasp your hands so closely that the finger nails cut into the flesh. I would rather be run through u threshing machine, ground up in a sausage mill or thrown under a locomotive than to ever undergo such auother ordeal. It makes me shudder tc^think of the tortures I have gone through with and 1 never want to look upon the face of auother In dian.” "Do many persons survive the opera tion^” interrupted the reporter. “No. I have only heard of two or three men besides tnvself who have lost their hair by tne sealping-knife and then lived to tell of it.” "Mr. Neiff, do you think the hair will ever grow out again ?” "Oh, no; I shall always have a bald spot up there. Tlie skin was torn otf for a space of four inches square, and I’m afraid it will never heal entirely. Even if it does heal over the bare place will always be so pain ful that I cannot touch it. I keep my head tied up in cotton and sweet oil. You can see that ray beauty has been considerably marred. These frightful gashes across ray face will go with me to the grave.” John Kelly nail Drover Cleveland. Albany Argus. The Hon. John Kelly possessed many virtues. He was a man of singular loyalty, even to those whom he did not know. It was at the Syracuse convention of 1882, an hour after 'Grover Cleveland had been nominated for governor, that I first met him. Tiie story was afloat and extensively believed that he would not support the ; nominee, and that disastrous results might be apprehended.* He laughed at the ru- ] mors when I explained what a foothold | they had obtained among the Buffalonians j then at Syracuse for Mr. Cleveland. "Sit down,” he said. "Do you know Mr. Cleveland? Well, I do not know him. I | have never even met him. He lias been i nominated and I shall support him. When ' I say I shall, I mean it. 1 believe he is a ] good man, for my warmest Buffalo friends I s..v that he is, and I must believe them in | the absence of other proof. Now, do me a | personal favor. You go to Butfnlo and tell j llr. Cle\eland .1 shall support him, and tell ■ him to place no reliance in the stories he j limy hear from now until the end of the I campaign that my organization or myself j will prove disloyal. Tell him I shall take 1 off my coat for him and he shall know j what it means. This is all. Deliver my ; message and you will both see on election dav that I have kept my word.” The message was delivered. "Did Mr. Kelly say this?” asked Grover Cleveland, as he whirled around iu his chair, busy with the numerous duties as mayor at the Buffalo city hall. "That is his precise language,” I replied, as I read it from a note book in which it was recorded as uttered. “Then,” replied Mayor Cleveland, "I shall do as he says, and shall pay no furth er attention to any rumor concerning Mr. Kelly or his plans. I believe: what he says,’ and know he means what he 3avs.” Observation taught me afterward that Mr. Cleveland relied strictly upon Mr. Kel ly’s statements. Placed in a position to have some knowledge of the relations be tween Mr. Cleveland’s friends in that cam paign, I never heard from Mr. Cleveland himself; or iris most intimate friends, even when the rumors of duplicity were the loudest, that Mr. Kelly was not sincerely loyal. Mr. Cleveland’s faith was verified oii election day. John Kelly did take his coat off. Historical tacts, no matter ii the frailty of politics led to estrangement, are facts the dead should lie credited with. It was again at Saratoga that I met Mr. Kelly, during the convention of 188-1,which endorsed Mr. Cleveland and sent a majori ty of the delegates to Chicago pledged to his support for 1 he presidential nomina tion. Tlie Saratoga convention was at its height when I met Mr. Kelly on the veran da of the Grand Union hotel. Naturally | reference was made to the time when I first met him, and our conversation then. | He tyas told that his message of 1882 had | been delivered, how it was received and believed to the end. Antici- pating that a similar message was expected again, he said, calmly, but with great force: “I have not changed my opin ion of Mr. Cleveland. But this year finds me in a peculiar position. Inside my or ganization are diverse thoughts, aims, and ends, and, unfortunately, I am the chosen instrument to guide and counsel. Who can speak what he can do. or would like to do, fettered by opinions varied in hos tility and friendship with your own friends? .Were it in my absolute power to speak I would advocate obedience im plicitly to'the rule of the majority. That is the fundamental principle of good politics and good government. You see and can realize my position, and so can all of Mr. Cleveland’s friends. Speaking from my Own convictions, I favor Mr. Cleve- lahd’js nomination if the majority here so deckle. - 1 cannot see defeat for him if he is nominated at Chicago. Depend upon time, if this nominating event occurs, for a slow conciliation of these now prevail ing diverse thoughts, aims, and ends, and who knows but what in the end loyalty will be as supreme on election day of 1884 As it wad in 1882 ?”■ Ntoiiewnll LihIicf No. IU.
