pEDEsrRIGnlsM EXTRAORDINARY,
A Walking Match at Hot Springs Be-
tween a Lady and Gentleman.

Pedestrianism would seem to be
somewhat out of place this hot
weather, but our Hot Springs
friends have recently been treated
to an exhibition Of some fast walk
ing by a Miss May Marshall and a
MI. Brewer. We take the follow
ing account of the match from the
Telegraph of the 9th inst:
Promptly at II o'clock this morn
ing Miss Marshall and MI. Brewer
stepped into the Castle Park Hall,
and into the same track where Miss
Marshall accomplished her feat of
walking fifty miles in twelve hours
one week ago. She was dressed
much the same as at the previous
walk, while Brewer wore an ordin-
airy business suit, but walked alto
gether in his shirt sleeves. They
both started at the same instant,
Brewer having the lead, which he
retained and succeeded in gaining
one lap the first mile, which was
made in the following time: Brewer
IA Marshall, 1895. In the second
mile Brewer made very good time
gaining several laps. At the sixth
mile Brewer attempted to pass Miss
Marshall, which she tried to pre-.
vent, and some fast walking, as vel
as a little running, was INDUCED il
by both parties. They were accord.
ingly required to walk the lap
over. Up until the thirty-irs
mile Miss Marshall kept up 1
steady gait, when she lef
the track for one minute an'
ten seconds. At the twenty
sixth mile Brewer rested clever
minutes. Up until the forty-iourtl
mile, Brewer retained a command
ing lead, but was withdrawn for
few minutes rest, when Miss Mar
shall made a splendid squirt, gain
ing a lead of twelve laps. Brewe
returned to the track after a rest c
ten minutes and forty-five seconds
and walked two miles very rapidly
On the sixth lap of the fo~rty-sixt
mile, Brewer became very muc.

NASHVILLE, August S.-Cal, IN
Beatty, the negro who was nearly
lynched at Franklin, was brought
here to-day in charge of three men
and lodged in Jail. A larue crowd
was at the depot, both Of Franklin
aud Nashville. Beatty was very
weak, speaking with difficulty.
Wednesday night about dusk a ne
gro man went to Judge Cook at
franklin, and said that Beatty was
ont in the country badly wounded.
Physician and men found Beatty
at a cabin two miles from the scene
of the attempted hanging, and
brought him back to the Franklin
jail, where his wounds were
dressed. The right side Of his
chest was literally covered with
shot, causing internal hemorrhage;
|, also a wounded hand and face.
. Stimulants were administered, and
in an interview this evening he de.
scribed the attempted lynching.
One of the mob took him on a

TIE NEW ORLEANS EPIDEMIC.

After all the efforts made to ar
rest the progress Of yellow fever in
New Orleans it is not a favorable
sign when twelve deaths and forty
four new cases are reported in one
day. So far the disease has resisted
the usual methods Of treatment
and arrest. Carbolic acid as a dis
infectant, has failed to accomplish
the end sought, and the fever con-
tinues to spread. Our board OF
health should take notice of these
facts and utilize the experience OF
those who have seen and had SO
much more to do with the fever
than we have had. A singular and
discouraging fact reported from
New Orleans is that the Creole
children usually doubly exempt
from the disease, are dying OF the
fever. This suggests that possibly
another malady exists, and that the
epidemic is not really yellow fever
1t will be remembered that there
were those in our midst who stoutly
maintained, and do to this day, that
we did not have the yellow fever IN
1878, but that it was a worse
scourge. Be this as it may, there
is no yellow fever in Vicksburg
or Memphis, and the slight
panic we had has passed over
The board of health keeps up it
work, the quarantine is rgidly en-
forced and a general sense of securi
ty prevails. The worst we have L
fear is that the people will become
too confident and fall back into th'
careless habits which have pre-
vailed SO long and almost uninter
ruptedly. We learn that New Or
