Striking Miners Shoot Down
an Innocent Girl.
FIRED ON HER FATHER
AND WOUNDtD HIM AND HER SISTER WHILE
THEV WERE EXTINGUISHING the
FLAMES ON A BURNING TRESTLE. SHE
WILL DIE.
Birmingham, Ala., July 2.—An
other dastardly outrage is charged
to the miners and their effort to
prevent the railroads from hauling
coal mined by other than union
' labor,
| As three o‘clock this morning a
mob ot men on horseback ap
proached a long trestle on th<*
Kansas City, Memphis and Bir
minghain road, near Adamsville,
which is the center of the mining
district, and saturated it well with
oil and set fire to it.
The watchman, William McLain
saw the mob and opened fire on
them, which was returned. Having
only one gun his amunrtion soon
gave oui and he went to bis tent,
where he got his two daughters,
aged nine and twelve, and return
ed to the trestle to exteuguish the
flames, expecting the mob had
left.
Wh°n he returned the mob was
in ambush and they opened fire
on him and his daughters. Me
Lain fired three times in the di
rection from whence the volley
came, then he fell, his left thigh
being filled with turkey shot.
His twelve-year-old daughter al
so fell, her left arm and breast be
ing badly shot. The other little
girl was slightly hurt. McLain
manat el to drag himself to the
section houses, about a quarter of
a mile distant, and told the story.
The section men ran to the tres
tle and extenguished the Hames after
three bents bad been burned. Sherifi
Morrow, with a posse and blood
hcunds, went to the scene, but could
not follow the trail of the depredators
further than Pratt mines.
Tonight the little girl is dying. Mc-
Lain is feeling sometbinu better,
though there are doubts as to his ul
timate recovery. Trains were delayed
Several hours. How many were in
the mob cannot be < stated.

BELL-JOHNSON,
EXCITING TIME OVER A ROMANTIC
WEDDING AT LITTLE ROWE.
News came to this city this
morning of some wide awake and
stirring times over at, Little Rowe,
m Gordon county.
It seems, that last March Mr.
John Beil aged 20 of Bells Ferry
and Miss Elia Johnson aged 16 of
Little Rowe, were secretly married
by a country Justice of the Peace.
The secret was kept as long as
possible and on Saturday mutual
friends informed the parents of
the high contracting young people
1 hen there was biood ou the moon
aud m uch excitement for a couple
of days but do one was seriously
hurt.
Yesterday Mis. Bell and her
young busband met at West Union
Baptist church and th’ girl wife
accompanied her youthful lord to
his own home, and now, all is quiet
along the Potomac.
The young people are from the
best families iu Gordon county,
and about the only objection tha’
can be urged agaiust them is their
tender years.

“One cold morning in January,”
■ we are told, “Oweuson was sitting
, by the library fire in her morning

RIBBONS FOR THE DINNER
I'ABLE.
The latest novelty in dinner ta
ble embellishments is ribbons.
Graceful, flowing loops and co
quettish knots of ribbon are the
newest adjuncts, with flowers and
rich services of glass and silver
ware.
The scheme of color being deter
mined, all the decorator has to do
is to accentuate that color by the
introduction of ribbons, whose
crowning point is a bow. Now
there are bows and bows, as mila
dy knows full well, aud to achieve
the indescribable textile butterfly
one, an artist in the millinery
knack is essential. In Paris, the
florist’s windows show the ribbon
bow to even greater perfection
than the milliner’s masterpiece.
It is such a bow and such rib
bons that smart hosteses must use
in the decoration of tbeir coming
dinner parties, A pretty arrange
ment is giveu as a model. A low
silver bowl in the center was filled
with Parma violets on their own
roots, as if growing; rising slight
ly above these are a few fronds of
asparagus aud a small lilac tiuted
orchid. From the bowl extended
broad lengths of lilac satin ribbon,
which wandered to the corners of
the table, caught here and there
with flowers aud ending in large
b 'ws crossed by sprays of orchid*
and violeis.-—Boston Herald.
BE GRATEFUL FOR EYESIGHT
Fanny Crosby, the blind poetess
whose hymns have turned many souls
heavenward, is marly 75 yeais old.
The aflliclion she bears would have
warped many a one, but her cheerfn]
hopeful spirit buoys her to happi
ness
She always ignores the fact that
she is blind when she greets a friend.
“Why,” she says, “it’s quite a
while since I saw you last, but I’m
glad to st» you now.”
e She seldom mistakes her friends.
Sometimes she is a little thoughtful
, or says: “Now, speak again.” She
recognizes the voice almost always.
Gracious heaven’ how thankful one
ought to be who can see, hear, speak
a. <1 walk about! But we march
along, looking at the sad side, hear
mg '.he unipeasant things, and half
the time when we use Our tongues
it’s to make some complaint.

rose satchels are most desirable.
They niay be made of cheese cloth
<r any thin material, iu cream or
white, tied with narrow, bright rib
o .-us, or colors in harmony with
itie toilet draperies can be chosen,
in size the sachets should not ex

freshly gathered, as such a small
quantity will not need drying, the
ur circulating freely through and

filled several times curing the

nclose the leaves in this manner
han to scatter them loosely
through the drawers as is frequent

dry up the result is not pleasing.

BROKEN UP AT SAVANNAH A FREE ]
FIGHT FOLLOWED.
Savannah, Ga.. July 2.—There
was a battle royal at Chisolm’s
plantation, just across the river
this afternoon between two siug
- gers of local reputation in Charleb
-3 ion named A. Boswick, represent-
B mg the up-town faction, and W.
a Varonew, representing the dowu
t>wn faction.
The.y fought for thirteen rounds,
3 wheu Varonee was pretty badly
r blooded up and was almost blind.
? He continued, however, until the
j seventeenth round, when some of
j the Savannah sports who had
) money on him got Austiahan Kel
ly to get into the ring and break
• it up.
i Then ensued a general fight, iu
; which the crowd took a hand, and
Referee Gus Myers declared the
light a draw, much to the disgust
I of the sports, who were all agreed
that Varonee was whipped, aud
that badly. The sports had their
gambling implements along and
cook in money on skin games be
tween acts.
