Iluriug a national fete which was field Loir at . «r Montevideo, , ■, Uruguay, „ YVodnes- < ay, President J. Idiarte Borda was shot and killed by an assassin. The assassination of the president occurred as he was leaving the cathe¬ dral, where a Te Den in had been Rung. President Borda died almost imme- diately after he was shot. The assassin is named Arredondo, supposed to be an anarchist, and was j arrested. \ Senor Cnestas, president of the sen- ate, lias assumed the presidency of the republic ad interim. Seuor J, Idiarte Borda was elected | president of Uruguay for the term ex¬ tending from March, 1894, to 1898. The fete at which he was assassi- j nated was being held in celebration of 1 the independence achieved of Uruguay, which j was on August 25, 1825. 1 The murdered president, was about had fifty years of age. Ife was married and a family and also a brother who is an ‘^ ekn ted ikree Urugwyau years ago, army being a i “combination candidate” of several P ,e 8 ; ; H„ So far . known . , he had , , been | as not very popularly identified with the pen | pie n°r bad he held any number of ini portant offices. Ills elevation to the chief magistracy is said to have been dis- | tastelul to the more advanced element °I the people. Much interest attaches to the nationality of the assassin of the president. An , attempt, was made to assassinate the president on the afternoon of April 1 An unknown man met Pres lnent Jiorila on the afreet and shot at hmi. The president escaped without injury and the criminal was captured, On that occAftion the president, ac- eoinpanied by his aid, I doutunant Col- onel Turruno, had been horseback rid ing. As he dismounted in front of the government him palace a youth aiqrroaehod and drew a pistol. Before the trigger could he pulled Lieutenant Colonel Tnrrone struck up the arm o! the would-be assassin and the ball Passed over (lie president's head. Another attempt to assiqatehini was made on May 20th, when he received a bomb sent to him from Lal’lata, Ar gentino. It was in a box and so nr rarnnged that it would explode when the box was opened. Fortunately run picion was aroused and the 1 >x w im¬ turned over to the police und dc stroved. POLICE AND NEGROES FIGHT. A Bloody Riot Precipitated at Charleston lotion !UIlls, III the Charleston cotton mills, a! Charleston, S. 0., where colored laboi is employed, fully 100 negroes meet at night when work is stepped to prevent the white ox-operatives from attacking tlie negro men and women as they march out of the mill. Wednesday afternoon ns the work men were leaving a policeman went t, arrest a negro, when lie was mobbed by the whole gang. Two other officers rushed up, and the three were beaten with sticks and stones. Tho police¬ men did not shoot for fear of killin' the children, but managed to knock down a dozen negroes with clubs. The fighting was becoming furious and tbo riot call was sent in to police headquarters. This brought tho eu- tire force, anil the mob dispersed. YVAGES WERE TOO LOW.

Referring to the state issues and the ! action of the legislature on the reform , bills presented, . , lie , closed , , by saying: “With more gold on the Klondike, gold in the harvest fields, the republi- can party directing the administration affair;,, the Dingley bill on our statute books and McKinley hold¬ ing the reins of government, peace and prosperity shall dwell within our borders, let us hope, forever.” The platform adopted ratifies and reaffirms the doctrines enunciated in the national platform adopted at St. Louis in 1896 and approved by the people in the last presidential election. In addition it says: “Wo rejoice with the people of the nation upon the passage of the Dingley tariff bill. Its enactment redeems the pledges made by the republican party to our pros- Date manufacturing, commercial and business interests and holds out to them the bright, promise of prosperity and material development, such as has never attended upon legislation do- -igned for the protection of home in- dustnos and the preservation of the markets Dollar wheat baa soundod tbo death blow of the “freo coinage” heresy In the late presidential cam- !•«'«» the strongest bid ma.lo for the agricultural vote by the democratic party was the promise that their success in that, election would raise the market price to one dollar per -payable in silver.

SAVED TILLMAN BY CHEATING. I nn,Ii-Iatirb.v Makes a Sensational Ad- lniMMion In Hi, Speech at Manning. In his speech at Manning, 8. C., Colonel Irby made the statement that he had cheated Tillman into his nom- ination in 18 f )f). The circumstance created a sensa¬ tion at the time. Irby said: “I hatched Tillman. The truth of this whole matter is that Tillman and I joined teams in 1881, after his agita¬ tion in i88-1 for the purpose, first, to establish an agricultural college in South Carolina. On the question of college or no college, we were iuglori- ously defeated. “Tillman became disgusted and at¬ tempted to organize the farmers of the state, threw up the sponge, wrote a long letter to the people of the state expressing his contempt and retired to his home among the old hills of Edge- field. “i n get him back I originated the March convention idea a year before Hie convention was held and gave him the nomination on a silver waiter. On the question of nomination or no nomination in that convention we were defeated by one vote. I cheated tlio question of nomination, which saved 1 illman, who was to be the nominee. '1 he end justified the means, because persons opposed to nominations had not been invited to that convention and they had no right to control its deliberations.” FATAL FLAMES IN FLORIDA. Three Ivps Font, By'Fire In Fort Tampa C lly and Alurli Frnporty Di^l royrtl. At Port Tampa, Fla., Sunday after- noon Marie, the fonrteen-year-old daughter of Mrs. Prances Valdez, went to the kitchen to start a fire. She poured on kerosene, and instantly there was a deafening explosion, fol¬ lowed by the girl’s agonizing death cries as she ran from tha room a blaz¬ ing mass. AIis. Valdez at once went to her daughter’s assistance. While she was attempting to extinguish the flames her own clothes caught tire, and the two ran screaming from the house. Both wore burned beyond recognition about their faces. The house caught from the flames, and was soon a mass of fire. A small boy was burned in tlio house. The tire spread rapidly and five bouses owned by the Plant Invest¬ ment company were burned, there be¬ ing no fire protection. ALABAMA COAL FOR MEXICO.

It was not expected that McLaurin would notice this, but Saturday night he issued the following card: "I am responsible for everything in tlio campaign that is offensive to Mr. Evans and ho need not put himself to tho trouble of making any inquiries, but may proeoed when ho sees lit to hold mo responsible. “John MoLaukin.” Tbii has created much speculation as to tho outcome.

MAXIM GUN TO PROTECT GOLD Will lie Placed on Steamer Portland Thnt Sails for Klondike. A rapid lire Maxim gun for the pro¬ tection of tno gold returning from the Klondike was secured at Chicago Fri¬ day. It is to be sent to Seattle, Wash., where it will be placed in position on the steamer Portland. Fifty rounds of ammunition will accompany the gun ou the vessel where it can be used on a possible pirating vessel, or to sweep the decks of the Portland in case of mutiny. Fuel in Liquid Form. Liqni.l fuel is coming into general use among engineers, and there can be little doubt that if road carriages are to be propelled by steam, the only fuel admissible will be some form of petro leura. At a late meeting of the North¬ east Coast Institution in South Shields, Mr. R. R. Wallis read a paper giving the results of many experiments to ascertain the calorific and evaporative value of various oils as fuol for steam raising. In comparing coal and oil he shows that the value of each varies greatly with the quality and circum¬ stances under which burned, oil do¬ ing from one and a half to two and a half times the work of an equal weight of coal. This is Accounted for, first, by the complete combustion of oil without loss of heat in soot or smoke;' second, because there are no fires to clean with the accompanying loss of heat and fall of steam pressure, the pressure and revolution of the engines being maintained; third, because the boiler tubes are always clean and in the best condition for the beat from gases passing through them to the boiler, and fourth, because the tem¬ perature of the escaping gases may be lower than is necessary to create the draught necessaiy for coal firing. There are no bars nor thick fire for the air to force its way through; the required amount of air can be drawn through the furnace by a lower up¬ take temperature, and the admission of air being under complete control and the fuel burned in fine particles in close contact with the oxygen of the air, only a very small excess of air is required. It occupies, moreover, only half the space needed for coal.—Na¬ tional Recorder. Eel Blood for Snake Bite. Some years ago the naturalist Mosse found that the blood of eels, particu¬ larly that of sea eels, contained # poi¬ son which acted, when transferred into the human system, similar to the venom of viperB, although weaker, in¬ asmuch as the eel poison brought about a similar reduction of the tem¬ perature of the bLood aa the snake poison. Professor Based upon this fact, 0. Phisalix made very interesting re¬ searches, which he presented recently to the Academy of Sciences at Paris. He concluded that the blood of eels possessed immunifying agencies upon snake poison. He succeeded by heat¬ ing a solution of eel poison to 58 de¬ grees centigrade to destroy its viru¬ lence, so that it was possible to inocu¬ late a guinea pig with the fluid, the only effect being the raising of the temperature by a few degrees. This reaction of the organism was followed by a perfect capability to resist the poison of the vipers, which was ad¬ ministered in a deadly dose fifteen to twenty hours after the inoculation with eci blood, but it absolutely failed to kill the animal. Even a very small quantity of the heated eel serum .was sufficient to produce immunity from snake poison. This discovery is most important, since it can be employed for immunifying human beings against snake bites, and, if not too far pro¬ gressed, it will even insure a more rapid recovery from snake bite of vic¬ tims who had not previously been i;u- nmnitied with the serum.—Philadel¬ phia Record.

The Ohio Sanitary Bulletin thus discourses upon the shut-up clothes closet: “It is the usual thing to have one or more closets for clothing open¬ ing into each bed-room. Often these are in inner walls; that is, do not have a window opening out of doors, and a i ■ consequently dark, unventilated pockets. This is exceedingly objec¬ tionable for closets anywhere, and es¬ pecially so for closets opening into a bed-room. An outer garment, which has been worn for several days—the frock of the woman, the coat and trousers of the man—is taken off and hung up in this dark, unventilated box of a place. The garments #re more or less impregnated, even with the most cleanly people, with effete matters which it is the function of the skin to remove from the body. These are of organic character and must de¬ cay, adding impurities to the atmos¬ phere. Where such closets already exist care at least may be taken to thoroughly air all clothing before placing it in the closet, and the closet door may be left open while the bed¬ room is being aired and sunned, as it' should be, for several hours each morning.” A New Johnson (?) Story. In glancing through the recently published work on that worthy bore, Dr. Johnson, I failed to discover the following anecdote. It is carefully preserved by a family whose Scotch ancestors took a rise out of the great lexicographer: Hostess—Dr. Johnson, what do you think of our Scotch broth?
