A Bloody Mutiny Narrowly Averted in the Ohio Pen. Columbus, Ohio, Nov. 7.—Tak ing advantage of the temporary absence of the chief officials, who were at their h tines voting, the prisoners in Hayden’s Foundry at the penitentiary celebrated elec tion day with a race war. Two colored Hamilton county convicts, .John Caldwell, serving 20years for criminal assault and George Johnson, five years for rob bery, engaged in a fight. Foreman John Bruck interferred. Both prisoners turned upon him and were beating him terribly when Robert Hall, a Jackson coun ty burglar, came to the rescue of the foreman. Hall knocked Cald we 1 down with a hammer. The foreman and Hall are both white men, and the others beii g colored were quickly reinforced by all the colored convicts in the shop. The white prisoners took a hand in the affair at this point and a bloody fight ensued. “Bill” Berner, the celebrated Cincinnati murderer,and Patroleman O’Brien were called to the scene and suc ceeded in quelling the disturbance by hu’tling the leaders of the com bat into cells. A HELPING HAND, It was Given Where it was Needed and Appreciated. A young woman endowed with all the advantages of beauty, wealth and position, had occasion to visit the upper stories of a large mercantile establishment in this city. Whi e waiting for the eleva tor to take her to the ground floor again, she noticed a young girl try ing to lift a large box of merchan dise to a shelf above her head. The girl was slight and feeble, looking, and the heart of the other woman was stirred with indigna tion as she observed several unem ployed men lounging near who did not offer to lend a helping hand. She herself started forward and said impulsively: “I am taller and stronger than you; let me lift tl at v ox.” “Oh, madam, you are very kind.” said the girl, dropping her arms wearily at her side, while the visitor lifted the box with ease and swung it on the shelf. You must belong to a ladies'gym uasium,” continued the girl ad miringly, “or you 3ouid not have lifted that box alone.” “I belong to the Young Womens Christian Association,” was the answer of her new frfend, ‘‘and I did not lift that box alone. Love for my sisters, whoever or where ever they may be,inspired me with a strength that enables rue to he’p bear heavy burdens. The Great Helper helped me ” Tae lady went away, and the next ui truing received a brief note written in a girlish hand, which simply stated the tact that the writer intended to fiud help from the same source and thanking her for her interest in an unknow and friendless girl. And the President of the Young Woman’s Christian Association has no dearer memento among her correspondence than this little thankful fetter. —Detroit Free Press, Hova Defies France.
