An Independent Candiduy Announced for
the Gubernatorial Race.
“Felton for Governor.’*
••What?”
-Yes. sir. You must handle it deli-
i-at. ly. hut it \$ true. He will oppose
tionion in the gubernatorial race, and
his wife proclaimed it during her visi
to commencement,”
••You don’t say so?”
• I certainly do; and if you will leave
in v name off 1 will tell you a little story.”
The gentleman who thus spoke to a
reporter of the Banner-Watchman is a
\%i» i known politician, who is a staunch
,1. niocrat ami has heard much lately.
THIS RULIN'} VOICE.
Said the gentleman:
“Poring the entertainment at the
Min im um club Monday evening of the
week, Mrs. Felton was the centre of at*
traction. She was becomingly dressed
:„1 was in her brightest mood. To her
a'I honor of the occasion seemed to Ik*
* ,-nrded. She occupied a conspicuous
po'iuon in one of the parlors, and was at
ail tunes surrounded by the guests
w hieh inc.uded some of the leading poji
i . ians of the state. Her sharp thrusts
ami clever answers showed she w as on
l.< i mettle, and had evidently consulted

. nssed she showed her pretty teeth and
flashed her eyes. Some one
suggested that her husband was
iiiivsing much social enjoyment by no

pioiiching race he would need strength,
uni' ll of which was concentrated here, to
w inch she replied, it was her privilege

Walking a Tisht-Rope Stretched Across the
Grand Chasm at Tallulah Falls—A Peril
ous Journey In the Air.
Thp crowd at Tallulah, last Saturday
was estimated at 0,000 persons. Besides
thre packed excursion train from At
lanta, toe people for many miles around,
had congiegated there to witness the
perillous feat of walking a tight rope
across the Grand Chasm from a point
near the Devil’s Pulpit to where Hughes*
photograph gallery stood. These are the
most fearful and imposing heights at
Tallulah, and the rope w as stretched JKX)
feet above the water that lashed the
rocks below. It had cost #500 to pur
chase and stretch the rope that was to
be the bridge for the daring adventur
er, who was to receive $1,000 for his
feat. Collections had been taken up on
the trains, the grounds and at frequent
intervals during the day to help raise
this suui. At the appointed time the
banks of the Grand Chasm were lined
with a dense mass of humanity, and as
the site was an elevated and conspicuous
one, no trouble was had in finding plenty
of good points of observation. It is al
most miraculous that some one did not
fall from the precipice, but not an acci
dent occurred. At the appointed hour
the daring adventurer appeared, clad in
the regulation costume of his calling. He
was a handsome, well-formed young
man, and accompanied by his wife. Jus
before he stepped upon the rope the de
voted woman throw her arms around her
Husband’s neck and implored him to give
up the attempt. He.promised that this
would be the last time he would walk a
rope, ami as he made his bow to the
crowd and stepped out upon the slender
cord that was to bear him ocross the
frightful heights, the poor womaa
went off into hysterics, and was taken in
charge by her friends. Owing to the
great distance spanned, the rope could
not be kept taut, and it shook badly
The vast throng held their breath in anx
iety as the daring man, with balance
pole, slowly and cautiously made his way
onward. To those in the chasm far be
low be looked like a speck suspended in
the nir. Several spy glasses were level
ed at the performer,and they showed the
perspiration pouring from his brow, i
while his face seemed dis
torted. That he was laboring under a
great strain these glasses clearly reveal
ed. The rope swayed fearfully, and an
extra force of men were put on the guy
ropes, to try and hold them steady. At
last the centre of the rope was reached,
and Prof. Leon was seen to halt and take
a rest. His strength had given out, for
the anxiety and strain on his nerves was
fearful. At the slightest motion of his
body, the great rope swayed like a pen
dulum. The Professor rested for some
time, ami at last staggered to his feet
and again commenced his perillous jour
ney. It was soon reported that he was
about to give out, and it was thought
that he could never reach the opposite
cliff. Step by step he dragged himself
onward, and his feet seemed as if weight
ed with lead. As his strength became
exhausted, the wabbling of the rope was
more atid more perceptible. Horror and
anxiety were depicted on every face that
lined the banks. It cou«d be readily
seen that the poor man was giving out
and had drawn on his Inst recourse for
strength to complete his journey. At
last the heights were .neared, and the
rope swayed more and more. Like a
drunken man he staggered on. As he
neared the end, great beads of perspira
tion could be seen .'.landing out on bis
forehead, while the veins in his face were
swollen like whip-cords. Hager hands
were stretched cut to assist him as soon
as he reached the verge of the precipice.
With a desperate effort he staggered on.
But a few feet intervened between him
and safety. This was at last and with
the greatest difficult}' passed, and amid
a deafening cheer from thousands of
throats the daring adventurer tottered to
the verge and fell prostrate on the ground,
having only strength enough left to call
fora doctor. Had Prof. Leon to go ten
paces further he could not have done so.
Ho was completely exhausted. It re
quired about half an hour to make the
journey, but to the speculators it seemed
days, so great was tlieir anxiety. After
the Professor was resuscitated, be was
positively forbidden to repeat the jour
ney. M.
Adventure of a Street Car Mule.
“Wall, I’ll jist be gol darned,” said
Tom, the driver of the yellow car, Satur
day evening, as he twisted the brake with
a lightning jerk, and quickly stopped the
car. “I bTieve I’ve killed that derned
mule.”
Sure enough one of his mules was un
der the car, kicking frantically, and the
other trying to get loose, being frighten
ed by such an unusual occurrence.
“Whoa, Texas!” sang out Tom. “Sam,
jump off o’ here and help push the cyar
off the animal.”
The car had been coming down at a
very rapid rate, so as not to delay the
car front the Georgia railroad when just
in front of the court house one of the
mules .stumbled and fell llat, and the car
was upon him before the brake could be
applied.
They tried to push the car up hill off
the mule, for one wheel was against its
neck, and one foreleg caught between
the steps, but it wes slow work for only
Tom and his driver. A crowd soon gath
ered and everybody began to give orders,
“Push back the car,” said one: “unhitch
jhe off mule,” yelled another; “pnsh hi
logout,” shouted a third.”
“Gentlemen,” said Tom, placidly, “I
air bossin’ this job; you will please keep
yer mouths shet, for the mule is putty
nigh doad now; altogether! here she
goes!” and they back the car, leaving the
mule free, the animal laying perfectly
still and panting feebly.
“Bust iny buttons ef old Jack ain’t
dead,” said Tom, mournfully, as he shed
a tear.
“1 believe he is ,”said a negro bystand
er, and lie placed his hand on the stony
heart of the Texas mule, when, as if he
had touched the button that set a m st
powerful electrical machine in motion,
;our feet clawed the air franiic&lly, a ne
gro lay doubled up in the street
and groaning painfully, and
Texas. Jack was galloping down the
street in a cloud of dust.
“Waal, I’ll he durned,” Tom finally
growled out; “I'll he gol durned.”
The mule was net hurt: a Texas mule
is not so easily injured, and the car
passed the next and the next siding, af
ter hut little day.

head, knocking him senseless. It was at
first thought the wounded man was
dead. e was revived, and his injuries
are not regarded serious. Jones has run
away.

Plundering the Classic City—A Story of the
Days After the War.
There is no such a thing as a riot eve
having occurred in Athens; strikes are
unknown, and the want of bread is never
felt except by a few beggars in our city.
The nearest approach to a riot was just
after the surrender of Johnston’s army.
Large crowds of soldiers had collected
in Athens from all parts of the Southern
states, and as the city was full of pro
visions in the store houses, this was the
principal place for the soldiers to con.
gregate. The Kentucky and Texas sol
diers came in, and having no money were
quartered on .the town. The large store
now occupied by 11. K. Nicholson & Co.
was filled with provisions, and the sol-
rdies wanted them badly. The streets
were thronged with a seething mass of
women, men and children, intent on
plunder! A large number of tin pans
were deposited in a store on Broad
stnet, and thither the rioters proceeded.
The tin,pans were thrown out by the sol
diers an l eagerly grabbed by those in
search of plunder. The soldiers had no
respect of person, and often ladies were
hit on the head with a rcl of tin pans.
In the house now occupied by the Atlie-
nsenin club, a large number of pans had
been stored, and in one of the back rooms
was a lot of scythe blades, that
had been stored there for the benefit of
the wheat cutters. The drunken sol
diers and the rioters got hold of these
blades ami threw them into the crowd,
ami several were badly cut by the indis
criminate throwing of the blades. Many
old Confederate soldiers, on their way
home, vied with the Yankees in this in
discriminate plunder of everything be
longing to the defunct Confederacy. For
several days this lawlessness prevailed
and the quiet hours of the night were
disturbed by the ceaseless rattle of
wagon wheels in the service of those
‘ who knew the ropes.” Tin pans, cot-
tonades,jeans, scathes, leather, flour,
flannel and bacon formed the staple arti
cles plundered, and doubtless many a
relic of the Confederacy can be found in
the surrounding counties that belonged
in tin* commissary and quarter master’s
department in Athens at the close of the
war. The old soldiers who lived in Ath
ens, however, did not fare so well. The
town marshal at that time was ordered up
to the Federal headquarters, established
in our town soon after this indiscrimi
nate plunder of Confederate stores. Un
der the rigor of military law he was or
dered to immediately institute a search
for the missing merchandise, and to re
turn all found to the Federal headquar
ters. This was done, and the poor sol
dier boys of Clarke were compelled to
give up tin pans, leather, &c., «&c. This
was a great loss to the brave defenders,
who had returned home with the loss of
all save honor. The Confederate govern
ment was due them many months of pay
for services, and they felt that what they
held was but a small per cent, of what
was justly due them. Three days’ rations
of Hour and meat was all they were al
lowed to retain. The poor soldiers of
Clarke, however, have seen better days
since then, and the barns of the survi
vors hold the supplies gained by honest
toil. Many have passed over the river
to rest under the shade of the trees, but
those who live, despite that day of pov
erty, still reflect honor upon the place
of their birth.

The managers of the tournament de
serve brass button medals. They de
voted too much time and attention to
printing addresses of welcome and to
display, and left undone many important
business details. No rules had been
printed, no judges stand erected or ropes
stretched. All these things had to be
attended to yesterday morning, tlut de
layed the parade.
'the streets were lined with little
booths, and the owners did a good busi
ness. The lemonade and watermelon
vendors did the biggest trade. There
was not much money in circulation,
however, but all the spare change was
spent.
It seemed incredible to see such a
large crowd of darkeys in town and not
a single drunk man. A fe w ofthevis i-
tors from the “wet” towns brought along
their bottle, but it didn’t last long. We
never saw better order or behavior.
The white people of Athens rendered
material assistance to our colored fire
men, to make their tournament a success.
They gave both their money and their
time.
The colored visitors patronized the*
street cars liberally yesterday, and all
who had a spare nickel took a ride to the
end of the line.
A large number of whites from the
country were in the city yesterday.
A lemonade war waged, and two
glasses sold for a nickel.
It was an oppressively hot day, and
several persons fainted o.i the street.
A damsel as blavk as night, with a
white rooster feather in her hat. was the
centre of attraction anieug the immense'
throng on the street
The crowd yesterday was estimated at
from four to eight thou >ativl.
A coal b'ack woman, with white hair
and deep blue eyes was one of the
curiosities on the street.
The old ring and walking cane swin
dle was in operation on Wall street.
The co loro company from Augusta
brought up with thvm them the old

There were several little fist and skull
fights.
Our merchants did but little, as there
was no money in the crowd.

DELUSION.
On Tuesday evening a negro who had
some berries for sale stopped at the store
door of Mr. Mnndcville to know if he
wished to buy. He did not find sale at
this place, and in turning away cast his
eyes in the direction of the back part of
the store, and seeing what he thought a
back door, marched towards it. Finally
the negro asked of the standers,by, who
were watching his proceedings, how to
get through. No one can imagine how
completely the darkey was sold out when
he found it only a mirror; and what he
saw in the mirror and thought a back

An Attempt to be Made to Drive the Pro
ducts of the Factorl e from the Mar
kets—Awa .ting the Action of the Higher
Authorities.
Augusta, Ga., July 26 — L.bor
a Hairs here aie in a critical condi
tion. The Knights ot l.abor exec
utive committee have issued the
dreaded boycott, and so soon as the
higher authorities of the order con
firm the actitih ol the Augusta As
sembly, it will go into t-flect. This
boycott is directed against goods
manufactured by all the Augusta
mills, and after it goes into work
ing, no Knight ol Labor in the
world will wear goods goods made
in the Augus'a mills. Further
more, every Knight of Labor will
work with might and main to drive
the goods from the markets, and
will visit with their displeasure any
dealer handling the same.
This does look like “cutting off
one’s nose to spite one's face,” for if
Augusta’s mills fail to find marktts
for their goods they cannot continue
manufacturing;. they must shut
down; and the consrquence will be
that thousands of Knights will be
thrown out of employment here.
If the Augusta mdls should retali
ate, and decree that no Knight ot
Labor should be employed in the
mills, the result would be iearlul to
contemplate. The mill operatives
are not, as a rule,' a thrifty set, an 1
have saved but little for a rainy day,
and suffering and privation would
be the outcome.
It is supposed- that the Knights
have resorted to the boycott against
all the mills because the mill presi
dents have organized, and all are
thus supportibg the Augusta Fac
tory, where a strike is now going
on.
Kunners are exchanging notes
between persons in the city and
out in the mill section, and further
developments may creep out dur
ing the night or. early to morrow
morning. Augusta canuot afford to
have auy such brand on the out-put
of her mills.
Augusta, July ' 26.—A promi
nent member ot the Knights of
Labor executive committee says, a>
midnight, that no boycott h«t» yet
been issued, but will surely be or-
■ dered to-morrow or next day.
The fourth annual tournament of the
colored volunteer firemen of the state
was a success, and reflected credit on
the organization. Atzn early hour yes
terday tlie s fleets were thronged with
firemen, citizens and vehicles. The
bright uniforms c.eated enthusiasm, and
from the peep of the auspicious day to
the dawn it grew stronger. The scene
about the city hall tya* stirring—bauds
were playing,animals were prancing and
the hoys in red jubilant. Good order
prevailed and everybody was happy.
Macon, Americas, Augusta, Milledge
villo, Gainesville, Uiitlin and Athens

went into the day’s contest as brothers,
though eucli company resolving to win
the prizes.
At 8 o'clock tire crowd began to grow
larger, and as eacli company put in its
appearance it was greeted with applause.
The bands played lively airs, and as the

THE HACKS.
Broad street was thrJnged with citi
zens. On each side ropes were stretch
ed to keep the surging crowd hack. A
1:45 the races were announced; the
judges and time keepers were ready.
Will Reaves mounted the grand stand
with marking, was ready to give the
scores of the companies as they would
run.
The first company to run was the
Jackson hose company of Augusta, who
appeared in their showy bright uniforms.
The runners were athletes, and their fine
forms showed to advantage in them. At
the drop of the flag the boys dashed
down amid the applause of the crowd
and the stirring music. The race was
capital to the plug, but the speed was
too much for the hose coupler, his hand
did not catch the joint and as lie strug
gled for it the company’s admirers held
heir breath. The pipeman was there
and as he turned his pipe, the threads
failed to catch and a bust was made.
The day was lost, and on the bu.lctin
was registered a large O.
The Prince Hose Company, no 8 of
Macon, were next in the field. The
champions were eacorted up the track
by the famous band of the Bibb Blues,
{Raying a spirited air. The manors
were in a showy blue, and white uniform.
All eyes turned to the company when
they stood ready for the race, and ex
pected a fine one. They were not dis
appointed, like deers the lith^ forms
darted towards the goal. The run was
a pretty one and the time fast. The un
couple was slow and a sluice of
water flushed the face of the pipeman.
Another naught was marked on the bul
letin.
The next run was the second test of
the Jackson hose company, of Augusta,
was the grace, the run being made and
water played in 26 3-8.
RELIEF, OF ATHENS
went quietly to the starting point, and
was watched by seven thousand pair of
eyes. A hush prevailed, and the old
favorites were expected to get in their
work. Down goes the communist em
blem, and like a flash of powder the boys
dashed forward to win. Cheer after
cheer rent the air os their forms darted
down the track, making the plug in ten
second. Tshe couplings acted like a
charm, and the ptpeman was there.
What's the matter at the plug? four sec
onds und ho water! Suddenly it gushed,
and the time was put up 27 3-4.
Next Vi. the Prince Co’g grab race
which was well done in 27 5-8.
Vigilant, No. 1, of Milledgeville. next
stepped along the track, inspired by
their baud. When the the old capital
representatives ran, the crowd cheered
lustily, and the tunning of this race
was c ever, but the time was slew; 31
seconds was the time keepers’ verdict
Relief, of Athens, went on deck to
make the grab reel race. The connec
tion were fast and the time was 24 sec
onds. When it was announce! the crowd
went wild and rushed through the
ropes. It was a stirring scene.
The Vigilant No 2 Co, of Americus
had never practiced with a plug. They
were as green as a Southwest Georgia
grass patch, but got ' there all
the same. There was a discus
sion as to the time. Mr. Jordon
the ofHcial timer for Americus, held his
watch at 25 seconds, Mr Holman caught
it at 27 seconds, and Mr. Smith lost the
time.
The Vigilant Co., of Milledgeville
next ran the reel grab test, and made a
goose egg.
Champion No 3, of Athens, next
-‘Look at those Black Axe niggers,’
what the crowd said. Everybody was
expecting this popular company to re
deem themselves and “get there Eli,” and
they did get there. After delay in giv
ing the boys the start, everybody stood
on tiptoe for the signal. Every nerve
eras strained to see the flag drop. Down
it goes, and with a winning swing, the
“Bloomfield” was started. At every
turn of the wheels the pulseof the crowd
throbbed. Even the grand stand went
wild with enthusiasm. Now at the plug
then the couplings, quick and the deed
is done. The clear liquid gushed and a,
shout went up. The bulletin was
labelled 25}^' The Americus company
ran a fine grab reel, race next,
in 22>£ seconds. They were followed
by the Champion, of Athens; who mado
t v .e same time amid much excitement.
The mericus company refused tq ran
the tie, when the Champion team had
walk over, and were declared win ners o
the first prize.
THE BOOK AND LADDIE CONTEST
took place next The first prize com
pany was Gaines villa, which went
through the programme in the good time
of 37 1-4 seconds.
The Griffin boys followed and slipped
up on 40 seconds.
The last was a footrace, of 150 yards,
which was run by Faed Johnson, of
Athens and Pope VValten, of Augusta.
he race was well contested, and was
won by Johnson, by three feet
The following is the official bulletin
board:
Augusta, 0—26 3-8.
Macon, 0—27 5-8.
Relief, 27 3-4—24.
Milledgeville, 31—O.
Americus, 27—22 1-2.
Champion, 25—22 1-2.
The crowd was the most orderly seen
in Athens for many years, he firemen
of Athens deserve much credit for their
indefatigable work, and to Eugene Ilry-
die, Noah Johnson, Albert Hawkins and
others are due the success of the tour
nament, who have worked hard, and
whose labors have been crowned with
success. * Wynton.

Incidents and Details of the Destruction
on the Island.
New Zealand newspapers con
taining accouuts of the Tarawara
eruption have arrived. A descrip
tion of the convulsed lake district,
as it was before the catastrophe, is
found in the Auckland Star. Oki
nemntu, the headquarters of the
tourists in that region, is on Lak
Rotavna. There are many hot
springs and small geysers in the vi
cinity. Lake Tarawera lies nine
miles in a southeasterly direction.
The village of Woiroa stood on a
small arm of Tarawera. Tarawera
was nearly six miles across, and
then an arm called Te Ariki, bend
ing southward two miles, brought
the tourist to a small creek, about a
mile and a half long carrying oil'
the overflow from Lake Rotoma-
haoa. Te Tarata, the White Terrace
was situated at the -Tarawera end
of Rolomahana, and perhaps about
tour miles from Tarawera Moun
tain, an eminence 1,96} feet high.
The shotes of Rotomahana were
honey combed everywhere with
steam jets or rumaroles, and exhib
ited in the highest degree of inten
sity; all those peculiar forms of vol
canic action which have made the
lake district famous. The buried
native settlement ot Te Ariki stood
with terrible swiftness! arid •¥
such force as to be Almost as da
gerous as' bullets.”
Mrs, Hazzird, who was rescue
from one of the buried booses, ;
made this statement.
“My two daughters, Clata and
Ina, escaped into a detached por
tion of the house. While sitting in
nv chair, with my three reonining :
children around rre, I was pieo .d
to the floor by tile leg, through the
roof falling in, and I believe that it
was at that time my . husband
killed. I had my youngest chtMJ
Mona, a girl aged 4, in my nraKyjM
hoy ageti ■ 10, Adolphus, btl mso
right, and a younger child, a. g»<R
iged 6, on my left, Mona, yyKffj
was in my arms, cried to,me to givefj
her more room, as I was pressing
her against the beam, hut the load
of volcanic mud pouring down op
me prevented me from being abwg
to render any assistance, and . the ;
child was crushed and smothered in,
tny arms and died. Adolphus said,:
to me, ‘Mamma, I will die urithv
you,'and I think he did shortly^
after, as he did not answer .again.’’
The little girl, I think, died shortly j;;,
after, as she said, ‘Oil! my head!’ as -
the mud was beating down on her,.
and she spoke no more. During :
my entombment 1 thought a search
party would come to search tha':\
room. I ‘called’ to the first people -
I heard about the place. Mr. .-
Blythe and others got me out on
hearing my call, after being entomb* f
ed for several nours.”
The following incidents of the
convulsions are taken in part from
the Auckland Bell and the Star
that city: .i
The moaning and crying of the
cattle were something terrible even
when daylight appeared. The Ma
oris were much frightened, and
were found crouching in theit .fjl
whares when arouaed by thKik^Mdj|
whites. The natives were of tlrtT
opinion that the sky had fallen, 'll
and said they had never kftown of '
anything like this before.
The discovery of an old chief I
Tuotu Tonga, in the buried whare I
at Wairoa; is a stiong reflection on
the dilatoriness of the government |
in adopting tneasnres to explore
these houses. The mud was heaped
arouud the woare and over the roof
to the amount of four feet. He -is
reputed to be over one htsndred
years old. He is aesused of caus
ing the death of a child be bewitch
ing him. The destruction of Wai- t
roa is also partly attributed to the
old man’s malevolence. When
fovnd he seemed perfectly contend
ed with his condition, though a •
mere skeleton. His 104 hours’
hibernating had not made him,-
speechless, and he protested >S
against being carried out.

on the arm of Tarawera bearing the Banner-Watchman: I t
® 1 ri t/vrrwzvrt til -if ( It I 1 nut
name.
Several days after the eruption,
and after access to the region had
become possible, the Star gave this
account of what took place: “On
the morning of June 10, about 2
o’clock, the side .of Tarawera moun
tain next Rotomahana Lake was
blown Out, amid a storm of the ele
ments—thnnder, lightning and
earthquake. On another peak of
the same mountain another enor
mous crater was opened, sending
forth showers of earth in the direc
tion of Te Telco. What caused
these unusual disturbances in a
mountain which had never betore
shown signs of volcanic activity is
a matter ofspeculation, but under
mining and subsidence through the'
geyser action around Rotomahana 1
appears a very simple and probable
explanation. This violent eruption
probably shattered the silicated
steam pipes of Rotomahana gey
sers, and letting the waters of the
lake down in heavy streams, caused
a terrific steam expansion, and the
vomiting of an immense cloud of
mud, which was caught in the ter
rific cyclone produced by these dis
turbances, and carried across the
south shore of Tarawera, smother
ing Te Wairoa and the native vil
lages in its journey, and spreading
over the east shore Rotorua as far
as Talieke, on Lake Retoiti. The
most startling leature of the erup
tion is the immense body of earthy
matter which it has deposited, and
the evenness with which it was
spread. This totals many millions
of tbns. The country is covered
smooth as a taele, every irregularity
rounded off to a perfectly even sur
face. The immediate damage
there consists in the loss ot seven
Europeans and ninety-seven na
tives, and the destruction 'fo five
native villages, two hotels, two
housqs and a mission hall, and the
overspreading ot the country de-
scribedtwith debris.”
The scene at the time of thcerup-
tion, as it appeared to an eye wit
ness, is thus described in the Auck
land Bell:
“At about two o’clock he was
awakened by a rumbling noise that
of an earthquake. He went outside
the door, but could see nothing,
though it was 1 clear night. The
noise proceeded from Tarawera
He looked around again and saw a
huge mass of flame rise in the
neavkns, and instantly lava and
smoke covered the ground, Soon
after a volume of flame issued from
Runaga, close to Tarawera. Large
balls of fire were thrown from the
gaping mouth toward Taupo, this
was accompanied by terrible re
ports, which shook. the whole
place place. And forked lightning
followed close upon the balls of fire;
it resembled the wriggling ■ of
snakes; it returned to tne crater,
forming the letter V. The roar
was tremendous, resembling the
heaviest thunder. As each piece of
hillside slipped into the open basin
large clouds of black dust rose out
of it and ascended to the heavens.
The fall of earth into the oyen cra
ter teemed to stop the fiery bal's
from coming up, but the forked
lightning still continued. Dense
vblurries ot black smoke issued from
the crater, ’going in various direc
tions. As soou as Ruawhina stop
ped tendinfi forth its terrible balls
of flame a huge white cloud issued
from -the cap of Rotomahana, and
heavy booming was heard, followed
by volumes of white compressed
s earn from Lake Rotomahana. It
rose with terrible velocity, and
seemed to be going toward Okaro
Lake. This lake is about five
miles from ' Lake Rotomahanna,
and the appearance it presented a
times was. something like a hugt
boiling cauldron, bubbling in all
directions. Lightning then com-,
menced to shoot out from Mount
Kakaramea. From the .whole
mount there came sheets of flame
and myraids of shooting stars like
large rockets. Shortly afterward
shocKS of earthquake were felt, ac
companied by a noise resembling
minute guffs, but louder 'than the
roar of the heaviest gun known.
There was ah open crater : on
Mount Kakaranga, and immediate
ly a huge volume of dense black
smoke issued from it, And the
country all around began to get
dark. In half an hour it was so
black that uo one could see thair
in front of them, While this was
going on a shower of pieces of
lava the size of peas came down
nformed that C. 11. D. has replied ,
to my answer to his charge ngainst
me of the 29th [unc, which ap-
peared in tne Weekly Banner-
Watchman of that date. I under- . 1
stand that he has now published an
affidavit made by W. A. Clotfelter,,
in the daily Banner-Watchman,
which he knows J do not take
Now, he commence I in the week
ly, but now he publishes in the
daily in .order to keep rae from
seeing it. There is something- re
markable about' this matter. My
paper that contained his charge ot
the 29th of June did not come to J
hand, and I heard of it from others
and had to borrow the paper from
a.netghbar. There seems-to '
conspiracy between C. B. D. and,
Clotlelter; that is, Clotfelter does the;
sweariag and C. B. D. is to pay the
expense of swearing out the affida- J
vit, and then pubfishes^he same in I
the daily paper, instead of the.
weekly, as they both know that I
do not take the daily, and np one in . ■.
our beat takes it that I know of. |
It will be remembered that G. B. B
D. has labored hard to write mc up fl
for several years, and I learn he once £
before has taken the daily
wrote to you lor the paper that Hj
contained that dodge, but tailed to |
get it. 11
It will be also remembered I have jf
not provoked this paper warfare; It
will be my time to write up Charley Ft
when I get through with this con- V
troversy. Now to the point. I have i
never run a line in ra.y life, either on V
Sunday or Monday, or any other I
day—and there was no necessity far
me to run the line. The line was run R
by agreement between our attor- K
neys, Mr. S. Morris for us ami -X
Judge G. C. Thomas for theqi, and '
in accordance with said agreement, H
Mr. A. H. Jackson ran the line on ■
the 26th day ot April last. Ciotfel- I
ter being tenant in possession u.tjd«r_J
Freeman, they “lost,” and Mr. Mor- 'r.;
ris wrote me for his fee stating that ‘1
Mr. Jackson had told him that r
Clotfelter was not cultivating be-. I
yond the line; that he saw ho more
for him to do. I was not able to sec I
to the matter until Sunday morning, E
the 2Sth of June. I had to go to ■
court on Monday, the 21st. So I
and two others went to the two
corners, and looked across the field
to sec if Clotfelter was trespassing
and he was. We neither went nor j
came on the line at all. I ask the i
public to withhold their verdict un- ti
til this case is concluded. Now, K
Mr. Editor, I hope you will give me fl
a fair showing and publish this in I
both the weekly and daily'Banner-' I
Watchman. 1 have not seen the re-, J
ply nor the affidavit, but if the afli- I

In reply to Mr. Hamilton’s article I
of the 24th inst., I will say that he -1
acknowledged in said article, the
charge which I brought against '^
him. Clotfelter's affidavit states .1
definitely just what he (Hamilton). 'I
says he (Hamilton) did, only,Ham- g
ilton never mentioned putting up a I
flag at one of the coiners, and also B
moving a stake. The act of being 1
there and running;(or looking with,
the eye from corner to corner) is
just what Mr. Hamilton did, and of
which I accused him. I always ask*
for my communications to appear 1
in the weekly edition, but when; ’'^
they do not it is not (my fault; nor ;i
is it my pleasure that Mr. Hamilton '
does not take the daily editiou2|a
When Mr. Hamilton truthfully j
writes me up, 1 -most humbly ask
him to have it published in n ” pain- !

of it. I have nothing more to say
through the press, but kindly ask .
