While out in the Field Where New Grounds Were Being Burned off, her Clothing Catches Fire—A Sister’s Attempt to Extin guish the Fire—A run of Three Hundred Yards Encircled In Flames. Miss Lampkin, the fourteen-year-old daughter of Mr. Crawford Lampkin,for merly of this city,met with a horrible fa'e yesterday afternoon, from which little hopes are entertained of her re covcry.

The flames so"n encircled the yourg lady, and she frantically scream ed for help, and endeavored to extin guish the fire herself. A little eleven-year-old sister, wl.o was the only person near, ran to her as sistance, but her eft'er’s were unavail ing. She too, was badiy burned about the hands in trying to tear the burning clothing from her elder sister’s body.

THE DEMOCRATIC EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE SHOULD MEET AND PLAN THE CAMPAIGN Throughout the Eighth District—CoT. John P. Shannon, cf Elbert, le Chairman—The Work Ahead of Them. The Eighth District of Georgia has a Democratic Executive Committee. But it has never been called into ses sion as yet. The committee consists of Messrs. John P. Shannon, of Elbert, Chairman; S. K. Cannon, of Franklin; D. A. An thony, of Clarke; C. C. Davison, of Greene; A. J. McM.i!len,of Hart; B.T. Mosely, of Madison; W. D. Barker, of Morgan; B. E. Overby, of Oconee; W M. Howard, of Oglethorpe, J. S Reid, of Putnam, and W. W, Sims, of Wilkes. The member from Jasper was appointed while In the old sixth dis trict. A prominent citizen remarked yes terday that it was high time for a session of this committe®. Said he: “The Third party is being pushed through this dis- rict with a zeal that should wake the Democracy in a hurry. There is need not only of compact organization but also of a thorough campaigning of the entire district. The Excoutive Com mittee of the district shou’il meet at once and plan the cam paign to be conducted in the old eighth. Chairman Shannon should lose no time in getting his com mittee into a meeting and talking over the situation.” The general opinion thopougbout the district is in fu’J accordance with the views of tins citizen. The Democracy of the eighth mu3t get into harness, and the executive com mittee should meet at once. THE SECRET. It is very wrong to grumble about the special tax that some say has been unjustly foced upon a certain few of Alliens’ most worthy and honest P ople by the f tliera of fhe city. Bpt it’s a>l rigl t. The seen t of the whole thing is just this: The Aid-mien and His Hon or, the Mayor, aie realizing the great importance that the ClassicCily of Ath. ns should be (he ow^er a city dock for its better credit and their own con- v. nin ce, and have taken this step to raise the wherewith t° purchase it with out calling on those whose business and interest does pot come in contact with -he special tax claim.

S weral weeks since W. T. Stead of the London Review of Reviews sent a cablegram tp Mrs. Louiie M. Gordon, askii g her tq writes him some “ghost stories,” or true strange experiences of people she knows.

He then relates the experiences given him by Mrs. Goidonas follows: While chatting with Capt. Evan How ell at an evening entertainment lasted him to tell me a real ghost story to send to you. He looked at me rather seri ously, and said that he had a dream which had made him wonder a great deal what ft all means—these mind- readings and dreams which had “come true.” He said that when he was In the war between our South and the North, that the night after a battle he fell into a deep, almost unnatural sleep, and dreamed that a son was born unto him. He dreamed some very peculiar circum stances connected with the birth, and about the appearance of the room, the physician and each one present. He suffered with sympathy for liis wife, and awoke ip this strained ner vous 3tate. Heatouce looked at his watch, and not being able to sleep again he wrote to his wife telling her the hour and what the dream had been The reply to his letter informed him that the dream was true—the peculiar circumstances, the physician, the people present and the hour.

Brenham, Tex., April 13.—News was The Banner is in receipt of the fol lowing latter from the National Asso ciation of Democratic Club3 at Wash ington : Washington, D. C.; April 2, 1892. Ahcut to enter up m a campaign in which the Presidency and the House of itepreseLt tives are immediately at stake, snd ultimately the entire control of the geueral government, we are di rected by the Executive Committee of the Na.ionnl Association of Democratic Clubs to urge upon the Demccratic people cf the Ucim the necessity of prompt, efficient and general oiganiza- < ion for the impending co .fl cf. If the omtest weie ODe for the offices »lone, or for the gratification of the per on il ambition of individual leaders on either sid-, aud if ihe administration to be cboser, in any event, might be ex- pccted merely to “glide through the offi cial routine'’ of goyimment for the teun of its exi-tence with no iinpvrmett of ou free mstitLt'op*, no assault upon the reserved rights of the people, no seizure by taxation, of their property or profits to be (uined over to favored classes, and no restrictif p of their markets for the benefit cf mor.opolies, it would be a matter of surR rnomtn’, which paMy might succeed. B.ut we know only fc 0o well that the p.uty in power wiR pot, and by the very i*w of ils existenc •. cannot, r» garei the limitations of the. Constitution; that it is irresistibly im- P 1 ed by ita doctrines and tradition*, from Ham (ton to Q .ay, apd by the va^t aggregation of private monopolies which it embraces and combines and by which it is su.-t-pned, to break through t e confines of the Federal charter on every side. Thi* is nof the place oy the time to develop in its tretpep lous pro portions, at fl wifh its dreadful menaces, the Fedoralis’-Rcpublican scheme of strorg, splendid, rorten gov ernment, resting upon cor_ ruption apd force, and employing ihe power of taxitipn toensLye the l et-or- ing masses, in orfler to bui) s up iu <ux- uiy and wealth the ruling classes. Aii Anieneaii hisuyy ejehibv.a »mr _ atfert* it. But [he most recent experience < f the people is m re than mougu f. rij lustration. Congress mry, under the Constitu tion, tax the pec pie to sustain their own gavernme nt. Itbas,however, just as much light to take their liv^s, cy to sell their children in to bondsg-', as it has to take a dollar from them for any other, purpose. But the Federalist party, purely to cr«atAmonopolies up:m whioh it may rely for political support, and to further enrich its wealthy fa vorites, boldly es3umesthe ungranted and forbidden power to lay taxes, w ith r.o view whateviif to public reve nue, bqt ’ with a sole at d avowed view to transfer untold millions of money annually from the pockets of the many, who have earned ir, to the of fers of the few who arc licensed to sieze it in virtue of their unconstitutional monopolies. If this can he dope, there is an epd of liberty; our federal gov ernment is utterly perverted; it is not merely a fraud, but a despotism; and there is nothing left worth a struggle The power to take and appropriate to others the proceeds of the people’s labor, is the power to emlave the people. None such can be found in the federal constitution. And the question wheth er it shall be exercised, though un granted, anfl, therefore, forbidden, is the question, as Mr. Jefferson stated it “between a limited and an unlimited government,” between selfgov6rnmrn r , and corrupt centralization, be tween popular liberty and grasping and greedy tyranny, between the masses and the classes, between the Federalist-Republican and the Demo cratic parties. The great battle for freedom of flec tions in the last Congress, was but an incident—albeit a terrible and meuac ing one—of this dread struggle between the great mass of the people and the banded monopolists iu coalition with a ruthless pc liticat party. The passage tf the Force Bill would have insured for an indefinite period, the unquestion ed supremacy of the monopolists and their pel tical agents; and they would have gone on taxing the people to fill their own pocket*, secure in their con trol of the ballot boxes and the returns, until oveithrown by revolu tion. The chief newspaper organ of the conspiiacy printed but the plain truth when it declared the Foroe Bill wou’d be theend of all, since it ‘‘car ried a hundred McKinley bills in it cui brsce.” Thus would the Federalist-Re-. publican party grasp, with one band the throat of const tutional lilierty, while with the other, it rifles the peo ples’pockets, and transfer, a vast ag- gretate of lawless p‘ui;fl*r to the mo nopolist allies. So the issus rt ends We must not iieceive'ouraelve3. Permit thi* conspiraostruck and shattered by the pop lar indignation in 1890 to r - their own defence. We have already been advised both by the m nopoly lead ers, and by the National Democratic Committee, that the contest will be 'argely a contest of c’ub3. Pol t cil mi thods change with circumstances. As in the earlier days «.f the Republic, when the question, was, as now, be tween strong government in the inter est of the masses, the Democratic Soei- e‘y becomes again the resource and the resort of the oppressed and alarmed people. A system of Democratic Societies as nearly uniform as may be throughout the Union, will carry the popular cause to complete and final triumph in 1892, just a* certainly as did the original system under the leadership of the immortal Jefferson. It is the natural and voluntary organi zation of the people, fi r *t, in their neighborhoods; second, in their States, and, third, in the Union, to expose the purposes, acd to meet the onset of the trained band* cf central zation and monopoly. We therefore urge the timely formation of primary societies in e.very district, and their early union in State Societies ai d in this national association. The General Committee cf the Na tional Association of Democratic Club3. consisting of four members from each State and Territory, will meet at Chi cago on the 2lst of June, and the time and plac* cf the national convention of Dcmocrat’c Clubs will be determined, tiLd the call duly issued. Whereverthe Demoratic Societies of any state shall have formed a Sta^-j organization, the latter wpl be entitled to eLyen dele gates at large in the convention, Meanwhile, we repeat the very re spectful but urgent advice which has been annually issued by this Associa tion, to the several Dom"cratic Socie ties of the- U nited States to clebrate in ome appropriate manner, the birth day of Thomas Jefferson, the founder of the Democratic party, and we com mend to their pariotio consideration the almonitiou of the illustrious Tilden: “At a time when powerful tendencies are at work to subvert the original character of our Government — to Veak down the limi- t tion* of power -stabiished by the Constitution—to centralize the action and influence of 0 ffl. ial authorities—to ceate a governing c ass, usingtbe ma chinery of the government as a cor rupt LiiUao >e. of pow r in diction*, and rtien >h .,.i;'g i< gi:l ition and adminis tration in the Interests of the few 11 gainst the many—tie precepts and ex ample of siven a .nan a* Mr. Jefferson civnm t be too oiten invoked.

April 14.—The annual election of trustees of the New York Life Insurance company has taken place. Forty-seven thousand votes were cast, the largest number in the history of the Company. Policy holders were present front ail parts of the country. The en tire number of votes cast were in favor of the ticket named by President Mc Call and by the policy holders’- commit tee. Ex-Mayor W. R. Grace, Judge Hiram R. S - *l. C. C. Baldwin, Walter Lewis and He irv C. Mortimer were elect el trust es. Mr. Grace takes the place nf ex-Presid.;ut Beers, and Judge Steel that of John W. Stearns. The other three risieea were re-elected, President McCall says, for the reason that they opposed the voting of a pen- l •ton to ex-FiV'ident Beers.
