the fund necessary for the erection of

tho charred remains w*ere found.
Search for (ho IWtmlorerB.
The local officers were assisted by
the best citizens of the neighborhood
in the search for the perpetrators of
tho crime. The bloodhounds from
Steele’s plantation were secured and
they were not long in finding tho
right track.
Before night they went straight into
the place where the Thomas boys re¬
sided, and one by one they were se¬
cured. Fayette Rhone, twenty-one
years old; Will Gates, thirty-five years
old; Louis Thomas, twenty years old;
Aaron Thomas, thirteen years old; Jim
Thomas, fourteen years old, and Benny
Thomas, fifteen years old, were placed
under arrest. The last four are broth¬
ers. Later on William Williams was
captured.
The bloodhounds worked splendidly,
and after tbe boys were confronted
with the evidence, they confessed to
committing the crime and laid tho
killing to Louis, the eldest.
All Mob Appears.
seven of the prisoners were un¬
der guard and Thursday night about
12 o’clock the guards were overpower¬
ed by a strong body of men and tiie
prisoners taken toward the Brazos bot¬
tom, north of Sunnyside. A little later
forty or fifty shots were fired and then
all was quiet. Friday morning, dang¬
ling from the limbs of a large tree,
were found the bodies of six negroes,
limp and lifeless.
Hundreds of negroes from all over
the country viewed the ghastly sight.
Williams was not to be found, but the
shots probably explain his absence.
As far as can be learned, the molt
was composed of both white and black
men, with tho colored element largely
predominating.

Usher of Chicago Dispatch.
President McKinley has decided
not to interfere in the case of Joseph
Dunlop, proprietor of The Chicago
Dispatch, who was sentenced to two
years’ imprisonment for sending ob-
scene matter through the mails.
A strong effort was made to secure
his pardon on the ground that his life
would he placed in jeopardy by his im-
prisonment, but the president decided
that Dunlop must serve out his term.
Attorney General McKenna, in his
report on the case to the president,
said that the only ground for executive
clemency w as the condition of Dun-

HAIL KILLS FORTY PEOPLE.
Stones of Ice "Weighing; Three Pounds Re¬
ported in Mexico.
A special dispatch from Sail Luis,
Potosi, Mexico, to the St. Louis Globe
Democrat, says:
The llio Verde valley in this state
has been visited by a terrific hail¬
storm, which not only ruined the
growing crops, but caused great loss
of life.
Reports have been received here of
the killing of forty-oue persons by
hailstones. On one hacienda alone
twelve farm hands were killed. Some
of the stones weighed three pounds.
HIGHWAYMAN RIDDLED.
Second Attempt at Hold-Up In the Town
of Hardaway.
A pitched battle, supplemented by
running fight, in which winchesters,
shotguns and revolvers were used,
small curred Friday night at Hardaway,
town near Albany, Ga.
It was the second attempt to
porter in the store.
Three desperate negroes, armed to
the teeth, composed one wing of
fight, while a half dozen law-abiding
citizens constituted the force to which
the negroes were opposed.
hour, Friday night just about the same
9 o’clock, the same three ne¬
groes entered the same store. The
same parly of white men were in the
store, but this time they were all
armed.
The negroes made the same demand,
but the response was quite different
from what it was on the first occasion.
Instantly the guns were brought in¬
to play. The would-be-robbers were
as quick on the trigger as the white
men and every time a gun sent a load
at them one of their guns sent a load
back at the white men.
Over twenty shots had been ex¬
changed before any one was hit. One
of the negroes finally gave a yell and
dropped over. This caused the other
two to start for safety with bullets
whistling after them.
When the negroes entered the store
Mr. Putney was at his home near by,
with W. F. Gay, a tobacco drummer.
heard They were at the supper table and
tho shooting. They both armed
themselves and started for tho store
on a run and on the way encountered
the fleeing negroes. It was then that
a fight, at first hand to hand almost,
ensued and then the running battle
came.
Both Mr. Putney and Mr. Gay es¬
caped both harm, but the impression of
men is that one of the negroes
was badly wounded.
The negro who was shot down in tho
store was found to have eighteen bul¬
lets in his body and was stone dead
when the smoke cleared away. Ho is
thought to be Charles Dehem. He had
in his pocket a knife he bought from
Forrester on tho night of the first
hold-up.
POPULISTS BANQUET.
Du tier Goes to Itostpn and Makes a King¬
ing: Speech.
The annual banquet of the peoplo’s
party of Massachusetts, held at Bos¬
ton Friday night, was attended by
nearly 160 persons.
George W. Washburn, chairman of
the populist state committee, presided,
and United States Senator Marion But
ler, of North Carolina, made the prin¬
cipal address of the evening. After re¬
viewing tho political situation and
showing how the great fundamental
principles of the populist party are
gaining ground with all classes and
Conditions of producers and consum¬
ers, he said:
“The 9,000,000 laborers who aro at work In
tho cotton fields of the south and the wheat
fields ot the west must bo protected against
foreign pauper labor, just the same as the
4,000,000 laborers who are employed in man¬
ufacturing. This must be done, or you
will have no customers for your goods.
“\Yo need a true American syBtem for all
American labor and American industry
Neither tho democratic nor tho republican
parties have offered us this. They both
offer remedies that aro contradictory. The
gold standard and freo trade go logically
together, hand in hand.
“The farmers and manufacturers of this
country should join hands on at least two
great economic questions. They should
stand solidly for an American system of
finance, and for a just and equitable system
that will protect all American industry and
American labor. This is the position of tho
people’s party; it is the only logically and
true American position.”

MORE LEVEES BREAK AND DROWN-
INGS RESULT.
FLOOD SITUATION IS VERY GRAVE.
j
,
Farmers Camping On the Hills—Death
and Destitution Being Caused by the
Raging Waters.
A St. Louis special of Tuesday states
that the flood situation throughout the
neighboring Mississippi and Missouri
river territory is one of gravest dan¬
ger. At several points the swollen
streams have overlapped their banks
and burst through the levees. Already
several lives have been lost and many
people rising are imperiled by the rapidly
waters.
Thousands of acres of farm lands on
both the Illinois and Missouri sides of
the Mississippi river have been inun¬
dated, or will be soon. Stock has been
drowned and crops destroyed. Accord¬
ing to the weather bureau, both rivers
will continue to rise.
While Joseph Johnson, William
Dalton, Minnie Frazier, Mrs. Ida
Bugg and her two small children were
attempting to ford a swollen stream in
a wagon at Jackson, Mo., the vehicle
was overturned and the women and
children were drowned.
Tho Hunt levee, which protected
the Hunt drainage district on the
Illinois side below Warsaw, broke
during the day, sending the Mississ¬
ippi river over one of the most fertile
regions in the valley. The wildest
excitement prevails, for fully 80,000
acres of land and hundreds of homes
will be under water as a result. The
lowest part of the district is just below
the bluff, seven miles back of the
levee, and the water is making
straight for the hills.
A territory thirteen miles long by
seven miles wide will be covered with
water. Couriers were sent on horse¬
back to the houses back in the district
and a scene of disorder and fright ev¬
erywhere prevailed. Some were un¬
able to save anything and barely es¬
caped with their lives. It is feared
that some have been caught and sur¬
rounded by the flood.
The levee was covered nil day Tues¬
day by the farmers and their wives,
hurrying their children and their live
stock to places of safety. Many are
now camped out on the hills with ab¬
solutely nothing left.
SOUTHERN PROGRESS.
New Industries Established in tho South
During the Past Week.
Southern correspondents report in¬
creased activity in industrial and mer¬
cantile circles, except in the flooded
districts, where business is still some¬
what unsettled.
As to iron and steel, no material
change is visible. The iron output in
the east is being increased, but pieces
are not any better and the demand
does not yet. equal the supply. In
southern iron prices are still irregular,
but the movement is fairly active and
there is a noticeable increase in the
number of inquiries received. The
demand for export is moderately good.
The lumber trade shows consider¬
able improvement and southern mill-
men report more activity than for sev¬
eral months. Prices are still low,how¬
ever. The export situation is good
and prices are being steadily main¬
tained.
The following are among the most
important new industries established
the past week: The Leather wood
Coal and Lumber Co., capital $100,-

Z'i
J ‘Women do not Like to Tell a Doctor
the Details of Their
Private Ills.
*
:fo The reason why so many women suffer
in silence from the multiple disorders con¬
nected with their sexual system is that
•J •i they cannot bear to broach the subject
to a man, even if he is a physician.
No one can blame a modest, sensitive
4 woman for this reticence. It is unneces
I 6ar y i n these times, however, for a woman
makes to all afflicted women a most generous
4\ / il offer. Mrs. Pinkham of Lynn, Mass., bids every
'l \\ woman who suffers to write to her and confide
\ ij l\ every symptom that annoys her, and she will give
/V? J \ her advice without charge, and that advice is
\> .i~~a I I based upon the greatest experience ever possessed
' Jr ’ I M J by man or woman twenty-three in this country, and extends over

I thou san (Is of cases. Why suffer in silence any longer,
my sister, when you can get help for the asking? Don’t fear to tell her every thing.
The case of Mrs. Colony, whose letter to Mrs. Pinkham wo publish, is an
illustration of the good to be received from Mrs. Pinkham’s advice; here is a
woman who was sick for year’s and could get no relief—at last in despair she
wrote to Mrs. Pinkham—received in return a prompt, sympathetic and inter¬
ested reply. Note the result and go and do likewise.
“I was troubled with such an aching in my hack and hips, and I felt so tired
all the time, and had fer four years. For the last year it was all I could do to
drag around. I w'ould have such a ringing in my head by spells that it seemed
as though I would grow crazy. 1 ached from my shoulders to my feet and
was very nervous.' I was also troubled with a white discharge. I wrote to Mrs.
Pinkham at Lynn, Mass., received a prompt reply and followed her advice, and
now I have no backache and begin to feel as one ought; in fact, 1 never felt bet¬
ter in ten years than I do now. I thank God that I went doctoring with Mrs.
Pinkham when I did, for if I had not I know I would have been in my grave.”
