The ap peal is signed by Admiral Belknap, commanding the Astatic squadron at Yokohama, and by the United States consular officers at Tokio and Yokoha ma, Regarding the calamity Admiral Belknap Hays: "Ah communication ia obtained with places before nnheard from, it becomes certain that the devastation and misery is vastly worse than has been supposed. In one inonntaiu village, for example, every individual was either killed or crippled, ami not one was left to go for aid to neiglilioring towns. The total uutnlier of persons leit homeless will reach half a million. Fields, roads, dikes, potteries, tools and Bhops have in manv cases been destroyed, and every means of livelihood has been taken away. Everything is lielng done here that can be done, bnt the people of onr country, perhaps, do not realize tliut Japan ia a comparatively poor country. Under the circumstances tier resources for giving relief are not adequate. One cannot hat look abroad for some assist ance. It is from the United States that most may he expected. England and the Continent are strained to relieve the suffering umv impending from the European cereal faluiue." Klid »r An Alabsuia Desperado. BiltMiNtiUAX, Dec. 9.—Two weeks ago Deputy United States Marshal Dan Osburn, in company with a posse, role upon the illicit still of Ed Yonng, noted Marion connty moonshiner. In response to Osbnm’a demand to hold np bis hands he tamed round like flash and fired his rifle, the ball striking Osbnrn and instantly killing him. Yonng then fled, followed into the bnshes by a shower of bnllels from Os barn's posse. The sequel of this tragedy is the findiug of Yonug’s dead body in the woods near the Marion, connty line. By the body was the trnsty rifle and revolver which the moonshiner had used in life, and tnoi'e thau once with fatal effect. Report says that Young’s wounds were serions, and had been dressed by a local physician, bnt that ou the body were sundry flesh wounds more recently made. This it not con firmed, and it is beyond doubt that the outlaw in hiding from the law became too wenk to go further and died alone in the forest. , Murderers Draw Lot,. Franklin. Tex., Dec. 9.—A negro named Dnke Hubbard was assaulted at a dance near here. The coroner'a ia vestigation revealed the fact that a lot of negroes, among them Hnbbard, were gambling, and they each took an oath to kill whoever of the party shontd divulge the gnilty. The county attor ney became aware of the fact that ne- roes wore gambling, and summoned Inblmrd, who, under stress, laid the whole mutter bare. The negroes cast lots to see who slionld kill him, and Frank Abbey was the man selected, and killed Hnbbard by firing on him from a crack in the door at a dance. Abbey was arrested, and the officers are after the others. ' • COUNTY DIRECTORY. ling a market business In II n dissolved by mutual consul i will be ennUased byMesa-i pjfttl _ _ J. K. Cameron and H.
