Omweuo, June 22.—Twenty-five yean ago
Mra. Margaret Jones, of London, founded the
first normal school In America In this city.
Recently the local board of the school decided
to celebrate the twenty«flfth anniversary of
the founding of the school and invited Mrs.
Jones to be present at the exercises on July 7.
Hbe accepted the invitation and a short time
ago, accompanied by a maid, sailed from Liv*
erpool. In mid*ocean she became violently
insane and waa with difficulty restrained from
Jumping overboard. On arriving in this
country Dr. Hbcldon, principal of the Oswego
normal school, went on shipboard to meet
her and was greeted by Mrs.
Jones as. a white-haired old sin*
ncr. Force bad to be used to take her from
the steamship. She was finally taken to a
hotel. Uer maid strongly favored an immedi
ate return to England, but the local board and
alumni had made every arrangement for her
visit and I)r. Sheldon was of the opinion that
with quietude and rest she would soon re
cover. She wu accordingly brought to O*wo-
go and taken to Dr. Sheldon's home, bat she
grew rapidly worse and had to be watched
constantly. Mrs. Jones remained here for
several daya under medical treatment, and
the utmost endeavor waa made to beep the
matter secret Very few of her friends Knew
of ht r arrival. Everything was done for her,
but as no improvement waa noticeaole it was
decided to aend her home.
Mra. Jones occupied a high social position in
London, and waa intimate with many promi
nent people In this ooontry. A telegram
from Philadelphia a few days ago announced
that when the steamship Lord (lough arrived
there George W. Childs wont to the wharf
expecting to see a Mrs. Jones, a wealthy Lon
don Isdy, who was to have been bia guest at
his country seat, and was Informod by tho
captain that Mrs. Jones bad died and was
buried at sea. Mr. Childs waa roported to
have been very much shocked over the affair.
Jt is said h«ro by those best Informed that Mr.
Childs’s expected guest and Airs. Jones were
the same persons, snd that tho true state of
affairs was kept from him. Mrs. Jones was
said to l>e a relative of Lord Caithness, who
killed himself in New York about a year ago.
Physicians who attended Mrs. Jones bore have
little If any hopes of her recovery. Her hus-
bsnd has been Informed of her condition.

Nr.w York, June 23.—A German festival
was hi Id at Petcrsville, Hunterdon county,
N. J., on Thursday laat. About 300 pjople
attended. Khortly after they had returned to
their homra over 200 of them were taken vio
lently 111 with cramps. It was apparent that
something eaten at tho picnic hod contained
E olson, and an Investigation waa ordorod, and
aa been going on for several days.
Yesterday, some of the sandwiches that had
been left after the feast In the woods were ex
amined, and it waa allcxod last night that
largo qualities of poison had beau discovered
In tho meat with which they wore made. The
meat was bought at tho only grocery storo that
the village boasts. It had been packed away
in tin cans, and It Is supposed the solder with
which the cans had been sealed communicat
ed poiaon to the meat.
There la no certainty, however, that the
meat la alone rceponslble for the wholesale
poisoning, aa many people who My they par*
took of strawberries only were attacked se
ven ly. Others who ate Ice cream My they
frit the effect of thepotson also, and It Is
tbonght possible thatl the poison waa in the
lugartbat was used. Many of tho persons tak
en sick became nuconacioua.
Oue hundred and aeventy*five perron* are
atill under treatment by a physician. So far
none of the cases have proved fatal, sad it is
tbought that all the sufferer* are out e! dan
ger. A further investigation will be made
and tho remaiulng portion of the meat and
other relict of the feast will be sent to an ex
pert chemist to be examined, and the nature
of the poison may then be ascertained.
rctmville is ao small a village that it hM no
telegraph office, and It ia soiuo distance from
the railroad, which accounts for the news not
being known earlier.

FIRE ANDL08S OF LIFE.
An Exposition Building In Boston Destroyed
by the Flames*
Boston. June 21.—The New England insti
tute fair building was burned this afternoon.
Four workmen were killed. The building
was occupied u a car shed by the Metropoli
tan horse railway. The company loses $250,-
0(0, Ailly insured. ,
The building was built by the New England
manufacturers and mechanics* institute for
exhibition at a coat of nMrly $500,000. Last
winter it waa purchased by the Metropolitan
street railroad company for $300,000. The
fire wm first discovered by a man working a
half mile away and before he could give the
alarm, the fire had gained rapid headway.
Workmen sought to mve their tools and many
were badly bnrned before they conld get out
of the building. while others were
nnable to escape. Within the building were
about 000 box cars, only one of which was
mved. As soon as* it wm learned that lives
bad been lost in the building all the strMiu*
were turned to the rear of the structure, and
the firemen bravely forced their way into the
biasing roina to reacuethebodies. The flames
refused to surrender until they had burned
everything combustible within range, and the
work of resene wm attended with great dan-
The chared remains of two were brought
and are thought to be
of William Taylor and
a man named Frost, both carpenters. It is
believed other bod lee are buried in the debris,
as several workmen are miming. All Is con
fusion at present, and no correct statement of
the loss of life can yet be made. The flames
are still burning in the Interior of the build
ing, of which nothing ia left standing except
the lower portion of tho walls.
It was at the east end of the building in the
careen tor's shop that the most heartrending
incident occurred. A man, whose name is not
yet known, wm driven out of tho window of
the second story by the flames. He was
about to leap, and bad put one leg
over the window sill, when the roof
fill In and pinned him fast to the spot where
he was. No ladder company had arrived, and
the crowd outside were powerleae to render
aialstance. The (lames followed almost In
stantly, and the imprisoned man underwent
agonizing torture before the horrified eyes of
hla friends below. Two of his foliow-
workmen, John McNulty and J. F.
Fallon, were horribly burned while
tiylng to scale the wall to reach their dying
comrade. His sufierings were mercinilly
short, The awful furnace flame soon wrapped
him about with fir**, and the smoke hiding
him during hit laat momenta from the case of
•fxetatora. Not long after the wall lte$!f gave
way and nothing more wm seen.
There were many men inside when tho fire
broke out, snd all ruahed for the rear win
dow*. Most of them were helped out. but
while the tush waa being made, to one or the
windows at which a scorched and bleeding
face was seen, the person who had boon look
ing out fell back Into tho seething mass and
was past all help. A colored man, name
unknown, went back Into the burning building
ta save some property and was not seen to
coxno out again, Chester L. Hazel-
tine and E. L. Famn had plenty of
opportunity to escape, but endeavored to
pull out spme of tho care and wero fright
fully burned. While thousands of spectators
were viewing, from neighboring roofs, the
magnificent spectacle, a horriblo tragedy wm
being enacted within, and all out of sight and
unknown to the throng. After the llames had
been sufficiently extinguished, search was be
gun among the charred ruins for possible vic
tims, and up to 0 p. m. eight bodies had been
remtved, most of them burned beyond recog
nition. It is believed there are four more
hod Ira in the ruins. Total pecuniary loss
$400,000.
At 10 a. m. eight bodies had been recovered
and no fewer than sixteen persons missing.
The ruins are still burning.

Stalk, Alt., June 25.—[8pecI»I.]—George
Ddti, wm bdn,ed here today for the murder
of Archibald Beam,. The murdered mtn’e
reel name wee William HcCIellen, thou,b he
wee ftmllierly known ae Archie Keami.
Both lived on the plantation of Mr. J. E
Fit riereld In tbli, Bnmell county. Davie wea
overwer of tho place, and Beams workod un-
dei him. Tho story of tho brutal murder, a,
told by Davi, at the time, la aa followe:
Wednesday, February 17th laat, about noon,
Davie lent Beami down to tho river to look np
iome cow*. Immediately after giving Beams
the order Davie picked np hie shotgun and
■tarted for the river by a different roots. In
a raw minute* Davis overtook Beams Dearths
bank of the river and shot him In tha back of
tho neck. Davie lay* that after shoetioc
Beams the first time he fell upon his knees
and begged him not to kill him,and they talk
ed for leveral minute*, when he told Beam,
that one of them must die, and shot him
again. Seeing that Beami waa atill alive,
Davia drew his knife and atalbed him in the
throat twice. Ue than knocked him in the
heed with the butt of hie gnn, breaking hie
ahull.
After committing this deed, Davis return
ed to where tho negroe* were at work and told
them he had a secret to toll them whioh they
most not reveal to anybody- lie then related
the story of the crime as given above. When
asked by the negroes why he killed Beam*,
be replied, “That if my end Beam’s bneineae.”
Davis then went on to tho boose of Mra Mc
Clellan. the mother of hi, victim, where be
boarded, end ste dinner. He told her thet
A rch was »lck and wonld not come to the home,
and If ehe wonld fix hla dioner.be would carry
it to him. Mra. McClellan prepared the dinner
in a bucket end Davie carried it down to the
field where the negroes were
at work. About 1 o’clock Mr.
Fitzgerald walked down from hie residence
to the field, and a, soon ae the nag roe. bad an
opportunity they told him what Davie had
•aid. He approached Darla and asked him
where wm Ream,. Davis replied that he had
gone oil'. Mr. Fitzgerald tola Davis it wu no
use to deny what bad occurred,u he knew all
(boot It. Davia then confeised thet he had
killed Beams and took Mr. Fitz
gerald to where the body laid. The body ley
there stiffening In a pool of blood, with
two loade of shot in the back of the head and
neck and ahonldera, two knifo wound* in the
throat and the (hull broken In by blows from
tbe bntt of a gnn. The heavy bine shirt
which Beams wore had been taken off and hie
cent put on again, and it looked ae though
Davis bad used the ahlrt In trying to dreg tbo
body to tbe river.
After ehowlDg Mr. Fitzgerald tbe evidence
ol hie awful crime, Davie asked him to help
him pot the body in tbe river and conceal the
mnider. Mr. Fitzgerald indignantly refused,
lie asked Davit why be killed Beams, and
the brnte made the mme reply that he had
given the negroes.
Davis then returned to the honse of Mrs.
McClellan, who wm still in ignorance of tho
awfol fate of her an, and told her that he
bed killed one of the negroes and would have
to leave. He uhed her to loan him Arch's
valise. She not only contented, but helped
him to pack his clothes, and he left.
Wednesday night, Judge Tucker, of Girard,
wm notified of tee murder, and went down to
tbe icene of the crime and held an imiuoit
over tbe body. There wm no testimony ex
cept the etstement made by Davis to tho no-
groei, and to Hr. Fitzgerald. To ono of the
nrgroet he mid that he seat Beams down to
tho river for the purpose of killing him. Tho
jury foond that Beams came to ble death at
tbe hands of Davi*, and that the crime wm
mnider.
Tbe pnnncr* arretted Davis on Thursday
night in bed at tbo honse of Mr, Mlko Murray,
only three miles tram ehe scene ol the tragedy,
where he had gone and asked permission to
spend the night. Bailiff Hammock and posse
had Wen shadowing him, and wbon he retired
they surrounded tho homo and captured
him. When he mw that he was trapped he
•aid:
“Well, It's a good thing you caught mo
napping."
Davie wee taken to Girard snd had a pre
liminary trial before Justice Tucker. Davis
then made his statement under oath. He said
that he and Reame's sister wore qulto inti
mate. They loved each other, but there bed
never been any improper rela
tione between them, although Beams
believe, to tbe contrary. Beam,
bad frequently rpoken to him about tbo
attentions ha wm paying his eleiar, and they
had some sharp words about it. Last Same-
day night Roams told him that the thing had
to be stopped, or one of them would hare to
die. He told Reams that he loved Emms,
end did not propose to give up hie
attention! to her jnet to rntlify him.
On Wednesday about noon bo sent Ream*
down on tho river to look for some cow*.
After tending him the threats which
Reams had made entered hie mind, and he
thought that would he a good time to kill him
and stop all trouble and save bleowu life. He
accordingly took hla guu and followed him.
Ue met Reams down on the river and talked
to him a few minuses about tbo cowe.
They separated and went in different
directions, hut he turned and followed
him again. When ha got within about twen
ty yerde of Beams, and just as the latter wm
about to look toward him, ha shot. Beams
fell, but lumped upend ran toward him with
a knile in hla hand. Beams asked, “What do
f ou meant" and he replied: "You know what
mean,” and struck him across tbs head with
tbe gun. Ue thru pulled hit kalfe and cut
Beame’e throat Seeing thst there wm still
life in him, he took a pistol
which he bad in hla ooet pocket and shot him
again. Ue pulled off Hex ms’s shirt and atart-
cd to throw It tn the river, but changed hit
mtnd and decided to throw nothing in until
he could dlspaM of tho body too. Uoasidhts
Idee for throwing the body In the river wm
to avoid all “trouble." He doted his state
ment by Hying that be killed Rctmt In telf-
deftnse, believing that If ha did not B-jtmi
would kill him.

CHINESE LABOR.
The pamor circulated that It la to be Tried
on a Georgia Farm
Augusta, Ga., Juno 23.—[Special Cor
respondence.]—The publication by Thb
Constitution eometlme eluce of
ipecial telegram from Harlem,
citing thet a movement wm on foot in Colum
bia county to stock a farm with Chinese and
displace the negro labor now engaged,prompt
ed Investigation by yonr representative hero
for the purpose of ascertaining the truth of the
novel and remarkable statement. This threat,
which, according to yonr Harlem correspond
ent, hM spread diamay among tha negro col
ony of the locality mentioned, found its orig
in In a northeser named Blake. Several yean
ago he came to Augusta, purchased land in
Colombia county, and began farming on quite
a modest teale. Year by year ho loot money.
Now hla financial cmbanaixment la kindred to
dimter, snd while ho la of tho opinion that
CbineM labor wonld prove an improvement on
tbo negrojlaborof the preMnt, and while it
la believed that were he to a place *o to do, ho
wonld make the trial, he Is not in a position to
import tho heathen or displace the darky,
and the letter ehonld have no (ear on that
•core. Uncharitably enough, no doubt, one of
tbe darkeys on the place, greedily tell* me
that Captain Blake sometimes forgot to pay his
bend*, which, naturally enough, strained the
relations between employer and employed,and
erssted a Ireliog of revenge on the ono side
and that cf affected disgust on tho other.

One of tho negro laborers with whom I oon
versed when In Columbia county lut week
voluntarily Informed me that tbu gentleman
who wished to drivo the black* out with in
voice* of heathen Chinese wm regarded by
the negroes with whom he had boon thrown
in contact M a wizard. Driving, walking or
•lccping ha and a companion are detcribed az
holding confabs with the spirits. They will
tell of surrounding beings which are distinct
ly visible to them, but to acMUsl observer not
favored by the•pirile, not to bo seen. Num
erous ere the tales told by the superstitious
darkles of tbo antic* of this pair—described
a* peculiar enough, even in personal appear-
•ante. The harrowing taka told of their un
natural venture* end eccentric actions and
Mylnga naturally suggest their acquaintance
with tupernetnral forces and Instantly place
them in a sphere wherein the ordinary inhab
itant of staid old Columbia county fails to ra
vel. When here they are seldomseen in com
pany with the honest husbandmen of thefr
neighborhood, from whom they have earned
juitly or unJo*tly,an universal dislike and
consequent ostracism.
A UUAITKB or TIIBIB MOVEMENTS.
From oonvenstlon with b prominent lend
owner of upper Richmond, poeeemlng limited
acquaintance with our Chinee friends, a chap
ter of eorae of the queer doings of this pair wm
elicited, which in part furnishes corroboration
of tbe darkies' tales at tbo expense of the
nortbenen. While driving one day a party of
gentlemen were forced to seek shelter of
“CroMBow Hell," as It Is merrily celled, by a
Mvere and unexpected wind and hail storm.
Tbo weather.bound gentlemen begantoamuse
themselves as beat they coold, when suddenly
en interruption cemo In tho appearance of our
"two gentlemen in black," Immediately the
new comeie began a startling series of groans,
murmurs snd unearthly exclemstions, Ono
termed to lots all control of himself, hie eyes
relied wildly, his body shivered snd twitched,
then ono convulalvo start fascinated hie eye*
and stiffened his body, his lips nttored straogo
mnllerlngs whioh were liitened to greedily
by bia companion. Th* gentlemen in the
building jostled and joked them, but their
thought! seemed transfixed and feelings con
centrated in th* distance. Instantly the
itrauge scene ended. Hurriedly they glanced
around, beheld their audience, and wildly
rushed out In the violent storm, hatleee and
unprotected, disdaining explanation and not
deigning a farewell. Nor could tho gentlemen
who wllnrucd tho performance ever alloitany

familiar with any foreign tongue. But when
under the Influence of tho phenomenitt and
supernatural beings which neighbors say min
ister to tbeir wants, this gentleman conversM
in German, French, Italian, Irish, Hebrew,
Choctaw and Chick araw, and, I suppose,
Chinese. “On midnights dreary" they have

THE rkOPOUD COLONIZATION OF TBE CHI
NESE.
Since onr friend had not the means to prac
tically put tbeir idea of stocking a southern
farm with the heathens of China, no fear tn
that quarter need be entertained, nor is it
necessary to dlscura the probable and poeeible
rffect of such a move. Howbclt, he stoutly
dcclerce that tho Chinaman—aye, anything—
would bean improvement on the southern
negro. Ae far as climate is concerned, he says
the ( blnemen are all right. H* thinks them
a thrifty, bard working set, and admirably
suited to till our fields of cotton end boo the
rows of corn. As to tho hostility the negroes
might show towards snch importation. I am
not prepared to eurmiee. Baffle* it to ray that
I know Columbia county too well to believe
that snch an imposition on honeet labor would
bo tolerated. The contaminating Influences of
the dirty and disease spreading heathen are
not wanted in this section In any rapacity. Ae

Do you hear well ? If not It will bo inter-
rating to read what several patients have to
ray of how their hearing wu Improved:
A gintjcman tn 8an Francisco, Cab, who had
for a few months need Compound Oxygen,
wrote u follows: “My left ear had always
been to me a useless organ. Yesterday I made
several prolonged teste on the telephone. Al
though formerly I bad been unable to hear at
all in that ear, I am now able to hear in it
more distinctly then In my right ear.”
A patient at Indianapolis, lad., writes: "I
hove need three-fearthe of the Compound
Oxygen yon rant me and have derived much
benefit. My catarrh I think abontenred, and
my htaring bu also been benefited."
A physician of 8hrevoport, La., uys:
“Comtoned Oxygen ia th* beet remedy I have
found for my trouble*. Tbo first time I used
it I wu relieved of a very severe catarrh
trouble, which kept me awake all night. My
defective heating hu been very much Im
proved and my lung trouble promises to be a
thing of tbe pest.”
A gcntlemsn In Du Moines, Ia, writes:
“Ccmponnd Oxygen bu improved my general
health. The periodical attache ol deafness an
not so frequent nor so long continued.”
A Virginia physician writra: “My srif* bu
been for twenty-five or thirty years deaf in
one ear, and neder tbe use of the Oxygen can
now hear well.”
