From Washington
How a Little Boy Was Saved.
Washington, D. O.—“When onrboy
was about 10 mouths old he broke out
with i rash which was thought to be
measles. In a few days lie had a
swelling on the left side of his neck
and it was decided to be mumps. He
was given medical attendance for
about three weeks when the doctor
said it was scrofula and ordered a
salve. He wanted to lanoo the soro,
but I would not let him and continued
giving him medicine for about four
mouths when the hunch broke in two
places and became a running soro.
Three doctors said it was'sorofula and
each ordered a blood medicine. A
neighbor told mo of a caso somewhat
like our baby's which was cured by
Rood's Sarsaparilla. ] decided to give
it to my boy ami in a short while his
health improved ami his neck healed
so nicely that I stopped giving him tho
medicine. The sore broke out again,
however, whereupon I again gave him
Rood's Sarsaparilla and its persistent
use has accomplished a complete
cure.” Mas. NurriK Ohahs, 47 K

but an hour, but in this time the
whole rango of Porto Rico legislation

of South Carolina; Cochran, of Mis-
sour i; Cox, of Tennessee; Williams, of

Now York, and Finley, of South Caro¬
lina, also opposed the report. made

taken on the report, and it was agreed
to—yeas 135; nays 87; present and

DOTH WERE LYNCHED.
White Mob Take Charge of Negro
While Colored Continent At¬
tend to White Prisoner.
A special from Richmond, Va., says:
Cottou, tho negro, and O’Grady, tho
white man, who murdered Saunders
and Walton in Greensville county
Thursday, were both lynched at Em¬
poria, a small town in that county,
Saturday about noon.
Tho negro was lynched by a mob of
white citizens.
Tlio white man was lynched by n
mob of negroes.
The bodies of both men were strung
up to trees and then shot to pieces by
the mobs. There was great glee over
the avenging of the dastardly crimes
of the negro and white man.
Cottou confessed to killing several
men since his escape from tho Ports¬
mouth jail several weeks ago, in w hich
he was confined awaiting execution of
a death sentence for murder.
The citizens of Emporia held an in¬
dignation imeting Saturday
and demanded the withdrawal of tho
troops, which were sent by order of
Governor Tyler to protect the negro
and white man from summary puuish-
iahment. Tho result was the with¬
drawal of the troops jimt before noon,
and iu n few minutes after their de¬
parture the mobs were organized and
Cotton and O’Grady were taken from
the jail and quickly lynched.

Season Vigorously Opened By
Railroads and Activity Is
At High-Water nark.
The Chicago Times-Herahl says:
The colonization season has been
vigorously opened by the railroads
which extend into southern territory,
and the work of building up the south
commercially is to be carried on this
year on a scale hitherto unknown. In-
dustrial agents declare that the year
immigration 'to "southern lutes' and
for the location of factories and in-
dustries.
Activity in the phosphate mines, re-
newed interest in the cotton industry,
the discovery of the value of cassava
as a money-making plant, the knowl-
edge that the railroads have countless
sections of unoccupied and ferti 0
farming lands, together with the re-
newed prosperity of the entire coun-
try, has made new possibilities for the
south that were little dreamed of sev-
oral years ago. Tho work of the Illi-
n«i» Central road is a fair example for
tbe boom tbat 1S no " on- Cp to the
pregea f tjrue the road has exceeded last
ysar’s record of new factories located
along the line by 80 percent. Jins

» <’”>ng nn unusual amount of work

nessee ami in colonizing
and disposing of timber lauds in Ala¬
bama and Florida.
Cassava plantations are becoming
numerous in Florida and especial at¬
tention is being paid to inducing peo¬
ple to engage in this new industry.
The fact that from this plant can lie
made starch and glucose of fine qual¬
ity and that as a fattening agent for
stock it lias no equal, is engaging the
attention of northern farmers.
In Virginia, North Carolina, Ala¬
bama and Georgia tho Southern rail¬
way is locating large colonies and
thousands are taking advantage of the
homestead seekers’ excursions which
are run every first and third Tuesday
in the month. Over 300 families have
been located this spring between Dan¬
ville and Richmond. At High, Point,
N. O., theie have been established
twenty furniture factories; nt Romo,
Ga.; a new basket factory, and at
Knoxville largo hat and woolen facto¬
ries. At Huntsville, Ala., another
large colony has been located and
many are visiting tlio peach belt with
n view of engaging in that industry.
The Plant system is developing its
phosphate fields and locating factories
and colonies all along its route. At
the present time it lias all of this class
of business it can attend to and it is
expected that the rush will continue
throughout the summer. Several of
the roads are watching with eager eyes
developments in the Cuban and Porto
Rican situations, with n view to being
a field for colonization purposes. One
or two roads have already made plans
for largo business in Cuba and when
matters become settled there they ex¬

The most interesting political story
in Washington just now is the alleged
entry of 0. I*. Huutiugtou, the great
railroad magnate, president of the
Southern Pacific Railway, into the
senatorial light in Alabama. It is
stated that Huntington is at tho head
of a secret campaign against the re¬

e ,j to a pp ear aQ d no disorder occurred,
The commonwealth’s witnesses were
numbering f or ty. F . W. Gol-
j ell waB no t in the list. The witnesses
nt Frj ,j bear j ng included Warden
j,. pb x^illard, Detective Armstrong,
Sheriff Bosworth, of Fayette county,
wb() arreR t e ,i Secretary Powers, and
c a p t(l j„ John Davis and Silas Jones,
0 j Wiiitelev county, who is now under
bon( j g cbal g e( j with complicity in the
murder.
'p bo testimony tended to show that,
( be gb ots came from t, hat seel ion of the
executive bnihliig in which Secretary
Powers’s office is loo.ited, although no
one swore that the shots were from
the secretary’s efface.
F. vVhorton Golden, who is said to
have made a confession, will be put on
tho stand later. Prosecuting Attorney
Polsgrove said that sufficient evidence
had already been heard to warrant
holding Powers, but that the case
would be much stronger before lie was
through. Governor Brown, for the
defense, said that the evidence was de¬
cidedly weak.
During the afternoon a soldier in
the rear court yard dropped his re¬
volver on the stone flagging and it was
accidentally discharged.
In an instant every man in the
crowded courtroom was on Mb feet.
fully a third of them with their hands
to their hip pockets.
Kpl, Lilian!, warden of tho Frank-
fort penitentiary, testified that he
walked just a little ahead of Senator
Goebel, and when the first shot was
fired he saw that the second window
in the office of the secretary of state
w as slightly raised. The other shots,
he said, did not come from the same
place. Tho first shot was evidently
from a rifle, while the others seemed
to be from pistols.
Policeman Wingate Thompson testi-
fled that as the crowd was carrying
Senator Goebel out. of the yard, he
saw armed men at the entrance to the
executive building and recognized
John Davis anil Rerry Howard among
them.
Detective Armstrong of Louisville
said that Secretary Powers refused
any information whatever at the time
of the shooting as to who was in the
building.
Captain John F. Hawn, of Barbours-
ville, testified that Powers had asked
him to turn over his ammunition and
company to Lieutenant Gibson pro-
vious 10 the shooting.
Governor Brown made the point
that a man cannot he convicted as an
aider of a crime unless some principal
is convicted of the crime. As the act-
ual murderer of Goebel has not yet
been named, the point possibly in¬
volved the liberty of Secretary Pow-
era. Judge Moore ruled against the
defense.
Silas Jones, of Whitley county, tes¬
tified be thought the shots were
fired from the corner of the building
in which Secretary Powers’s office is
located. He immediately walked into
the ante-room, where lie 8a ' v Captain
Davis . and Governor Taylor
among the
others, there was considerable ex¬
citement, the governor camo to the
door and wanted to know who was
shot.
Did yon see any one try to open
t a eb 1 owers door?” asked Attorney
I olsgrove.
“Yes, I saw a man with sandy whis-
kers trying to open the door. He
struck it with a hatchet, replied Mr.
CS '
Jones , said ■ i „ there was much noise,
but be could not say ho heard any
from Secretary Powers’ office.

SO ALLEGE THE
It Is Asserted That Wholesale Bribery
Was Practiced and 1312,890 Wai
Spent By Montana Man,
A Washington dispatch says: Coun¬
sel for the memorialists in the case of
Senator Clark, of Montana, have sub¬
mitted their brief to the senate com¬
mittee on privileges and elections:
After reviewing the testimony in
detail counsel presents the following
facts in the case from the evidence ad¬
duced:
First, that at least fifteen members
of the legislature were paid by Mr.
Clark and his agents for their votes.
Second, that at least nine others
were offered money for their votes and
that the total amount of offers reached
8175,000.
Third, that 8100,000 was offered by
Dr. Tracy, a friend and agrmt of Mr.
Clark, to bribe the attorney general to
dismiss the proceedings in the Well¬
come case.
Fourth, that the agent of Clark of¬
fered Justice Hunt of the supreme
court $100,000 to dismiss the Well¬
come caso.
Fifth, that Mr, Clerk and his friends
engaged in wholesale bribery and at¬
tempted bribery of members of the leg¬
islature to secure the election of Mr.
Clark.
Much is made of the testimony alleg¬
ing efforts to bribe Justice Hunt and
Attorney General Nolan in the Well¬
come disbarment case.
“It is evident,” they say, “that Mr.
Clark and his friends fully realized
the importance of the decision of that
court in its bearing upon Mr. Clark’s
contest, otherwise they would not have
taken a special train to bring bis
agents to Helena to negotiate and ar
range for the purchase of that court

as was necessary up to and including

M il BAMIFACTCIUC BY
SHOWN HKOS. CO.. WINSTON,
Deserted Johannesburg.
Johannesburg Is a striking contrast
to Pretoria. This city of banks and
exchanges, of brokers’ offices, hotels
and rendezvous of speculators, has
now an appalling effect upon a visitor.
Block after block of window's are
boarded up, and solitary policemen
guard the deserted streets.
I know the Boers have been taking
every precaution to guard the proper¬
ty in that city. It is an indisputable
fact that since the mines were de¬
serted arms and provisions have been
discovered in some of the lower levels.
I have seen some of the letter flies
which were taken out of one of the
mines, and which in themselves shjw
absolutely that a close corporation ex¬
isted In Johannesburg which was de¬
termined that at least the goldfields
should be absorbed by the British
sphere of influence in South Africa.
In one instance an old engine boiler
was unearthed in one of the leading
mines, which contained all the private
letters of one of Johannesburg's heavi¬
est speculators. When it became gen¬
erally known that these things had
been discovered there was more bitter
feeling expressed among the Afrikand¬
ers than I heard at any other time.
But I did not hear anything which In¬
dicated that Johannesburg and the

more general interest in this vital fac¬
tor in country life.
