The State of Dade News’ voj.. ix. GOEBEL IS SHOT. A Tragic Affair in Frnnkfort, Kentucky. SHOT FIRED FROM A WINDOW. first Bullet Did Its Work, And Whil Goebel Wes Down Several More Shot* Were Fired at Him. Frankfort, Ky., Special.—While walking through the capitol grounds on his way to the capitol building, at t£n minutes a "ter ll o’clock Tuesday morning, William Goebel, the Demo cratic oamdiLdatte for governor of Ken tucky, was shot down and very dan gerously wounded. Harland Whit taker, a farmer from Butler county, the home county of Governor Taylor, is now in the Jail at Louisville, charg ed with the crime. He denies in the most -positive manner that he had any connection with the shooting, or knew anything about it. He was running toward the scene of the shooting, and not a.way from it, when he was ar rested. Senator Goebel was wounded, by a rifle hall of small ealiibre, not over 3S, which struck him in the right side just below the armpit. The hail passed through the tack part of the right lung, across the body in a diagonal line, passing out below the left shoul der blade. The vital organs were not injured with the exception of the right lung. Mr. Goebel was ora bis way to the Senate chamber In company with Col onel Jack Chinn and Warden Eph Lil- Jard, of the Frankfort penitentiary. Mr. Lillard was a .few feet in advance of Goebel and Chinn, who were walking f-'ide by side, G-oebel being on the rigin and Chinn upon the left. From the outer edge ot the capital grounds to the,steps of the capital building is a. distance of 300 feet. Two-thirds of ihis had been passed and the men were walking slowly, when suddenly s shot •rang out from a large t!hree-3tary building, which stands 50 feet east of the capital building. This building ib sited for offices for nearly all the lead ing officials of the State. Governor Taylor and the Secretary of State hav ing rooms on the first floor. As the shot was heard Goebel gave a quick tovolunta'ry exclamation of pain ana (made an effort to draw his own re volver. His strength was unequal to Che tdsjt, -however, and he sank upon the, pavement.' With great rapidity several more shots were fired, the bul lets all 'striking the brick side-walk close towhere Goebel lay. None .of them touched,him, however.^ 2tt od yaaaz2, shr hrd hrd hrdl ucs Llllard hastily turned around to aid Goebel, who was supported by Chinn, who had his arms about him almost as soon as he touched the pavement. “Get help,”'said Chinn to Lillard, and. turn ing to GoebeJ, he asked: “Are you hurt? Did they get you?” “They .have got me this time,” said Goebel. “I guess they have killed me.” In less than a minute a crowd of men was around Goebel. ' He was losing much blood and was becoming very weak. He was hastily carried to the office of Dr. E. E. Hume, in the base ment of the Capitol Hotel, about 1,000 feet from the spot where the shooting becurred. Here he was laid on a sofa, While Dr. Hume made a hasty exami nation, pronouncing the wound to be of s’jch a nature that must cause death In a short time. The’ Republican State officials and thembers of the legislature, without exception, denounce the shooting in the most unmeasured terms. Governor Taylor immediately caused a small ad dress to be. published, declaring the af fair to be a disgrace and an outrage, and calling for the most sober condem nation. He sent orders at once to Ad jutant General Collier, directing him to take steps for the preservation of or der. General Collier is a Republican and is opposed to Mr. Goebel. He de clared the shooting to be a most cow ardly affair and one that upon everv consideration was to be regretted. He lost no time in making speeches, how ever, and before Mr. Goebel had been lifted from the ground to be carried to •the hotel, General Collier had tele phoned to the arm-pry, a half mile dis tant, directing the" local infantry Com pany, which was stationed there, un der command of. Captain Wolcott, to proceed immediately to the capitol grounds, take possession of them and its approaches, allowing nobody to enter the gates. Twenty minutes after iftie shooting Captain Wolcott and h.s men marched across the front of the capitol building and halted at the foot of the steps. Orders w T ere Issued to outside com panies throughout the State to make ready at once to come to Frankfort, the entire State guard being called into service. It was feared the news of the shooting would so inflame the Demo crats that they would come to Frank fort in swarms, while the mountain eers would lose no tiine fn coming to the capitol for the purpose of uphold ing their party principles. “It makes an difference to me," said General Col lier, "who starts anything, we will pre serve cyder on both sides. ’ The ex citement among the followers of Mr. Goebel was great, and for a short time Immediately following the shoottog of thedr leader there was sorry possibility that some of the hot heads would seek revenge upon their political enemies. Threats Were made against Republi can leaders and attorneys the excitement, but the leading Democrat ic members of the House and Senate soon brought them to calmer thoughts. Like wildfire the news spread and men began to pour toward the oapitol grounds, one throng being led by two firemen, one of whom carried a Win chester rifle, which the other finally prevailed upon him to lay aside. Senator Blackburn, fvho was in Washington, was informed of the shooting through the long distance telephone and sent back *a message urging the Democrats to remain quiet and make no rash action of any sort. Board of Control Abolished Columbia, S. C., Special.—After sev eral caucuses and several nights of warm debate, the Senate decided to abolish the present Sdate board of dis pensary corttrol and to elect three directors, one being chosen by thb Senate and two by the lower house. In joint assembly, a commissioner is to be elected for a term oif two years. The dispensary has assumed mammoth proportions and nearly all other legis lation is at a standstill on account of this institution. BRYAN AT BANQUET ine Gridiron Club Entertains Prom inent Hen. Washington, D. C., Special.—The fifteenth annual dinner of the Gridiron Club was given at the Arlington hotel Saturday right, and, like its predeces sor, was the most successful event cf the season. The club is composed of 40 Washington correspondents, who each year give a number of dinners, and make the last Saturday in Jan uary a most notable occason, as it is the anniversar- of the club’s origin. The banquet hall was handsomely dec orated, the ceiling and walls covered in laurel. Smilax and maiden hair ferns, with palms and other tropical plants, filled every window and corner of the room. Through all this mass of green were more than a thousand electric lights of all colors. The tables were banked with flowers, orchids and roses predominating, while many vases cf American beauty roses adorned the room. Henry Litchfield West, of the Washington Post, the new president, occupied the head of the table, which was made in the shape of a gridiron and around which were gathered 200 guests and the members of the club. As usual the unique features and dar ing burlesques, together with the good natured skits aimed at prominent guests, formed the principal part cf’the entertainment. There were interspers ed '’kith songs by the qpartette, solos 'and witty speeches, all making a thor oughly enjoyable evening. The menu was an exquisite afjarir,'being a little volume bound in leather;’ each page having the na;he of a member,' together with his vignette set iq reduced front page of the paper he represents. It was designed as a souvenir of the fif teenth annual dinner. The initiation of two new .members was made the text for a burlesque on imperialism. The club '“expanded” for the new members; raised the President to the rank of Emperor and “crowned” him. Reports from colonial governors and vassal states and the conferring of titles were rudely interrupted by "Uncle Sam,” who seized the “crowns” and drove the decorated “officials” from the room. A minstrel show with really new jokes amused the guests; several songs written for tffie occasion were gven, a verse being allotted to Mr. Bryan, with an allusion to “16 to 1.” Another la mented for Senator Fry, because, as president of the Senate, he had to lis ten to Senators instead of enjoying his favorite fishing sport. The speeches were especially good, Senator Depew and the Chinese minis ter being at their best, while the re marks of Messrs. Frye, Bryan, Gorman, Chandler, Tillman, Hanna, and Bev eridge, were of the usual high order. The speakers were placed upon their mettle by the happy introduction of Mr. West, who presided throughout the evening with dignity and ability. Injunction Denied. Macon, Ga., Special—Judge Speer, Saturday morning in the case of Dady vs. the Georgia and Alabama Railroad, refused the injunction sought to pre-~ vent the consolidation of the Seaboard Air Line system. He referred to the fact that causes substantially similar were pending in the Federal jurisdic tion of Virginia and North Carolina, holding that the court which first took cognizance of the case 6hould carry it to its determination. Holding that the plaintiffs were privies with Ryan in his suits to the jurisdiction referred to he said that these tribunals were the proper ones for him to resort to, the same issues being involved. Warren’s Unfinished Fight. London, by Cable. —The only news issued by the War Office during Satur day night Is a dispatch from Lord Rob erts dated Saturday stating that the situation is unchanged and that Gen eral French reports a reconnoissance of the enemy’s position on Thursday, when he found the Boers strongly posted at Pietfoncein. The maps do not show any such place In the region of General French’s operations, and it is probable that Reitfonteto, 10 ra’les north of Cole3burg, i* the place alluded to TRENTON, GA., FEBRUARY I, liiOO. BRITISH DEFEATED. Geseral Buller is Forced to Retreat Before the Enemy. NO DISGUISING TiiE UGLY FACTS Shifting of the Theater of War From the Rocky Kopjes to the Open Veldt Suggested. London, By Cable.—lt is frankly ac knowledged that the most serious ef fort of the present war has dismally failed. There is no sign of a wish on the port of the leaders of public opin ion to disguise the ugly facts, but, on the contrary, there is every disposi tion to -face the full difficulties and dis cover the best way out. In short, the policy voiced everywhere is *he gath ering up of forces for more effective blows. All hopes of the speedy relief cf Ladysmith have been abandoned, and the consensus of expert opinion urges the immediate shifting of the theatre of war from the rocky kopjes of Natal to the open veld; t I the Free State. One thing appears certain —aa other long pause is inevitable, unless the Boers assume the offensive be cause, even in the event of General Buller further attempting to reach Ladysmith, the planning of anew move will necessarily occupy time. The afternoon news<papers are drawing attention to the closeness of the parallel between the Federal at tack on Keneral Lee at Fredericksburg and the operations on the upper Tug ela. Curiously enough, there is visi ble, especially in military circles, an undercurrent of relief ait the news -that the British are safely south of the Tugela, for the rumors of Saturday had conjured u-p visions of an immense As the afternoon news papers ATe commenting without full knowledge of the facts, they are not disposed to offer any apologies for General Builer’s defeat. The St James Gazette, says: “The meaning of the retreat is obvious. We have had to recognize that we cannot force orh way through the enemy’s lines to Ladysmith. Why, we do not know. If the Eoer position is impregnable it ought never to have been attacked. If it is capable of being taken, we were repulsed -because the leadership was bad, and it is idle to attempt to con ceal that -the latter is far from in credible. To start out declaring there must be n-o turning back, is eminently foolish. When swagger and rant pre vail, there is commonly plentiful lack of judgment and true resolution. It requires serious effort not to yield to the gloomy conviction that the intel lectual and moral qualities which make for success have been replaced on our side by words, words, words. The rem edy for' Souvh Africa is not to add to the numbers, but to put the troops where their force can come into play.” The Westminster Gazette invites the country to cast aside all delusions and recognize the'fact that progress for the present is stopped -in NaLai, .and that safety lies in ccncentrayon. General White’s force, as an effective aid, mus-t be written off, and probibly most 6l Gengnil Buller’s army has < left the Tugela. “The Boers,” it says, “have been given time to prepare against advance through the Free State, hnd we have not sufficient strength at present t-o undertake this advance with any safety. These are ugly facts, but those who disguise them are again misleading the public. The plain truth is that we will have to make a We need at least 100,000 more men — new, army somehow, from somewhere. 50,000 to re-enforce the Oape and 50,000 in reserve.’ - ' War on Fertilizer Trust. Columbia, S. C., Special.—The fer tilizer traffic is under fire in this State. Senator J. C. Alexander, president o! the State Farmers’ Alliance has issued a call to all of the Alliances in the State to meet and decide upon a plan of fighting the trust. The Virginia- Carolina Chemical Company, recently bought nearly all the fertilizer facto ries in this State and it is against the corporation that the call is directed. Telegraphers’ Trouble. nr Atlanta, Ga., Special—W. V. Powell, of St Louis, president of the Order ol Railway Telegraphers, arrived in At lanta Monday night His coming ie significant at this time, in view of the fact that the tele/rraphers on the Southern Railway are attempting to adjust certain grievances existing on that system. Spion Kop Captured. London, by Cable. —The War Office has issued the following dispatch from Spearman’6 Camp, dated Jan. 25, 12.10 a. m.: “Gen. Warren’s troops last night oc cupied Spion kop, surprising the small garrison, who fled. It has been held by us all day, though we were heavily attacked, especially a very annoying shell fire. “I fear our casualties are considera ble and I have to inform you with re gret that Gen. Woodgate was danger ously wounded. “Gen. Warren is of the opinion that he has rendered the enemy’s position untenable The men ax# splendid,” 2'EMOCKA TIC. NEWS SUMMARY. The South..

Americcan Loss, i Killed; 14 Wounded. Fight Lasted Two Mours.The Enemy Being Well Entrenched. Washington, D. C., Special.—Gen. Otis’ cabled report indicates that Geu. Schwan is conducting the campaign in the south of Luzon with the greatest energy. He has located southeast of Laguna de Bay what L pr obably the last considerable force of insurgents remaining in one command and the re port shows that, with small leas to himself and heavy loss to the enemy, he has managed to completely dissi pate this force, probably beyond the possibility of reconstruction. Gen. Otis’ cablegram is as follows: Manila, Jan. 25. Sch concentrated Thirtieth bat talion, Thirty-seventh, Thirty-eighth infantry at and near San Pablo, Tagu na province, on the afternoon of the 20th, Hayes with cavalry striking for Tayabas by lower road. The enemy had advanced from Santa Cruz to very strongly fortified positions, at San Diego, Majayjay and adjacent points in country very broken an mountain ous. Schwan struck the enemy at San Diego, and in an engagement lasting two hours, killed 82 and wounded a large number. Our casualties were one enlisted man killed and 14 wounded, including three native scouts. Cap tured several rifles, ammunition, bolos and stock of uniform clothing. On tlie 22d Schwan pushed on through to Lilio, driving enemy back on Majayjay, where a force as reported by escaped Spanish prisoner to number between 1,500 and 3,000, well equipped and sup plied had concentrated waiting ap proach -of troops. This position was impregnable via roads and trails and the troops were working around ou either flank of the enemy,' when the enemy retreated rapidly with the Thir tieth infantry and cavalry in pursuit. It is believed that the insurgents are widely dispersed. The country is now covered by troops and our force occu pies Santa Crur, a few minor engage ments at other points resulting in con siderable loss to the enemy. MacAr thur telegraphs that Mcßae struck an Insurgent post in the mountains north west of Porac, capturing the arsenal, barracks, ten car loads powder and ammunition, three insurgents with ri fles. The barracks with arsenal were destroyed. Manila, Jan. 25, 9.45 a. m.—A part of Gen. Sebwan’s column, consisting of six companies with some artillery, drove a force of 500 Insurgents from their entrenchments at San Diego, near San Pablo, c-n Sunday. The enemy of fflcially reported that they had lost 67 killed and many wounded. Our cas ualties were one killed and 14 wound ed, the injuries in most instances be ing slight. ‘ Another, battalion, while executing a flank movement, came upon one hun dred other rebels ill an entrenched po sition and routed them, killing 14. The Americans had t( 0 wounded. • ' Gen Schwan moved against Majay jay, Laguna province, -on Thursday. He found its position almost impregna--' ble, but by lowering- men down ’’the steep river banks by ropes, flanked the enemy and drve them out. A part of his command proceeded to Santa Cruz, killing six insurgents, Gen. Wheeler and his daughter left Wednesday on the transport Warren /or Sian Francisco, via Hong Kong- and Guam. _ 1 A Horrible Place. Washington, D. C., Special.—Thomas J. Hunter, the former auditor of the Atlanta and West Point railroad, brought back here from Morocco, whence he had fled, passed througn Washington with his guards enroute to Atlanta. Hunter says the prison where he was confined in Morrocco is the most horrible place imaginable, and be was glad to get away from it alive at any cost. Barge Goes Down. Norfolk, Va., Spe .’ul.—News has reached here of the foundering of the barge Houseman, and the los3 of two of her crew. Tho barges Houseman, Rose Hagan and Thfo? Sisters, left Norfolk for Charleston, in tow of the tug Protector. When off Frying Pan Shoals, a 6torm struck the tog and tow. The Houseman broke loose and the huge seas caused her to founder, two of the crew going do*va with the barge. Their names or residences wer not learned. The tug ami ether barge managed to reach. M-relitad City, the barges being describe 1 s being in a half sinktog cond ticn. Ju the way through Hcracoke Inlet. The Peanut Crop. The peanut of commerce, Araehis bypogeu, is a native of tropical Ama ica, having been unknown in the Old World before the discovery of Amer ica. It has been cultivated now for over two hundred years. There are several different species of araehis, and numerous cultural varieties of the cultivated species, AH the varieties of commerce are placed in two groups, namely those mainly valuable for their oil and those suitable for edible use. It is the latter kiud that is mainly cultivated in America. In Africa, where the pea is extensively grown, it is the oil bearing varieties that are preferred. The Spanish pea nut is largely grown in the Southers States for hay and as a pasture for hogs. The peanuts sold on the street corners and used extensively for con fectionery are the “Red Virginia” variety,cbieHv grown, net J n Virginia, but in the (Jaroliuas and Tennessee. Although the peanut is of tropical 01 • igin it lias become acclimated to much cooler regions and is now a staple crop everywhere along the Atlantic coast from tne Potomao southward. The peanut requires a very light loam or sand containing plenty of lime. Rich prairie or garden soils cause the plaut to run to vine and produce very few peas. The peanuts of commerce are the fruit or pods of the p!qnt. The flow ers are borne on sleuder stems which spring from the base of tlie plant. After the flowers liave been fertilized and set fruit, the flower or fruit stem elongates or buries itself in the ground, usually penetratirg two inches below the surface. Then the peas grow to maturity. This is why a light porous soil is reqnired by the peanut, for if the soil is bard or caked the growing fruit is unable to enter the ground aud does not mature. The crop is always planted in drills about three feet apart, with a nut or pod dropped every ten or twelve inches in drill. The seeds, contained in the pod are often removed or shelled be j fore plautiug,but this is not necessary. ’ Usually the pods or nuts are soaked twenty-four hours in water, then they are dropped by baud iu shallow fur rows. Before dropping, the puds are squeezed between thumb aud finger to crush the shell and bo . ensure I quicker germination. The peanut above all other ordinary legumiues requires lime. It will not form seeds without it. Like all other legumiues this plant catches atmos pheric nitrogen. This it does in very large amounts, making the peanut one, of the most valuable of soil restoring crops. . A good yield of peanuts m theCaroliuas is two tons per with about the same weight of foliage. A crop of four, tons of peanuts will take from the air and soil the following plant foods: ' >* Nitro- ♦ • ;• gen 203.0 lbs, worth #24.00 taken from nlf Piiospliorio , Held 87.8 lbs. worth #1.50 taken from soil Poiasb 334.8 1 to. worth #15.30 taken from-soil Lime 293.0 lbs. worth #I,OJ taken from soil A good fertilizer for a peanut crop is as follows, per acre: Kiliitt or 3200 pounds -Muriate of potash HiK) pounds Superphosphate 300 pounds Lime (fresn) 300; pounds It will be seen that this crop is espe cially exhausting on the potash in the soil. Most peanut growers fail to give the plant sufficient potash and lime, with the result of poor and low quality crops. No nitrogen is needed iu fertilizer for peanuts. The plant itself is able to take $24 worth of this substance from the air. Even if the nuts are sold away, if the vines are re turned to the laud about sl2 worth of nitrogen will be added to the soil per acre. This will nearly pay for the potash, lime and phosphorio acid the farmer must buy. Stable manure is not good for this crop and should not be used on it. It causes too much vino and hollow pods or “pops."— G?fald McCarthy, M. S. , lit , China’s New Emperor.
