and four full-page pictures, this num-
Der of the magazine is perhaps eve n
more notable for its literary features
than for its pictures. OF special inter
eat is Miss Fanny Stones "Diary of
an American Girl in Cairo during the
War of 1892" 1t is a vivid and remark
able narrative of the life of General G.
p. Stones family during the month that
the mother and daughters were exposed
in Cairo to the greatest uncertainties
and dangers while General Stone was
at his post with the Khedive, and aid
ing in the English operations against
Arabi. General Stone, in PREDATORY
letter, severely criticises the English
attack upon Alexandria.

Serious trouble was reported last
week at the Rising Fawn furnace,
Georgia, owned principally by Sen
ator Brown, who is discharging his
free white laborers and filling their
places with negro convicts. When
Capt. w. d. Grant recently sold out
his lease of portion of the convicts
Senator Brown purchased about
Seventy five. He had under his
former lease a sufficient force of con-
victs at the coal mines, and day
or two ago notices were posted at
the iron works to the effect that in
a few days the free laborers would
be discharged and their places sup
piled by convicts. The free labor
ers are greatly excited, and some of
them are said to be cOunselling re-
sistance by force. They affirm that
their discharge comes upon them
unprepared and subjects them and
their families to enforced idleness
and hardships at a very critical sea-
son of the year. They have sent a
protest to Senator Brown, detailing

A great sensation has been eaus-
ed at Greenbrier White Sulphur
Springs, Va, by the elopement Of
Miss Ella Farrer, daughter of J. II.
Farrer, with John Biggs. Biggss
attentions to the young woman had
been bitterly opposed by the Farror
family. The father was absent from
home when the couple left, but his
son apprised him Of the departure
of the lovers, and procuring a bug
gy, the two started in pursuit.
Biggs and Miss Farrer, unconscious
of the chase, arrived at the river,
and entering skiff, started across.
had they left the bank,
however, when the pursuers dashed
down to the shore. Jumping into
another boat, the father and son
gave chase, at the same time calling
upon the levers to stop. This call
was unheeded. About half way
across the river, the boat containing
the fugitives was overhauled, and
dropping their oars, the father and
son sprang into Biggs's boat. The
former grappled with Biggs. A
struggle ensued in the moonlight
between the two men, in the course
of which the skiff was overturned.
The brother, who had in the mean
time succeeded in getting his sister
into the other boat, reached the
shore in safety, but father and lover
were both drowned. The next
morning searching party found
the body of Biggs lodged against a
pile of drift. Mr.. Farrer's body has
not yet been discovered.

ployment of convicts the whole pow

them, and this but enrages them

Speaking of the roughs of Skin

each of these noted localities is COM

of our ancient town are from those
places. Prof. Walker, of Madison

forget to mention that c. f. Alex

a Hunter Nils a White Deer, GnJ Knows
That re WiH Soon DIe.

Millsvlle, (Pa.,) Special.
Silas Rohrbacher, of Hunters
range, LuHerne county, has sold his
county because of his superstition
that the killer of white deer is
sure to die soon or meet other mis-
fortune. Rohrbacher and his son
discovered a white doe in the woods
ON Tuesday of last week. 1t was
lying PROSTATE on the ice and una
bic to gain hold by which it might
recover its footing. Rohrbacher re-
solved to rescue the deer from its
position and at the same time give
it place of security until the snow
had melted in the woods. His son
went home and returned with an
empty ed.bag and two pieces of
rope. The bag was drawn over the
does head, and her feet were tied
with the ropes. She was then lift

n yoke of steers. 1t soon became
r,','ouc.led to its position, and fed
with the critic.
On Thursday last Rohrbacher went
to fhe shed to throw down hay to
his cattle. As he opened the door
a gustsof wind caught it and threw
it wide open. The doe caught
glimpse of the woods through the
open door and sprang towards il.
AS the deer went past him, ROhr-
baehe mechanically raised the long
tined hay fork he had in his hands
and thrust it at the deer. The tines
struck it i'm the side and were bur-
led to the handle in its body. The
tines broke off as the deer leaped
out of the door and remained in Its
side. The doe jumped the iligh log
fence aruunrl the cowyar1, and ran
for hundred yards down the road,
when il staggered 10 one side and
fell heavily on the snow. Rohrba
cher ran to the spot and found the |
doe dead. Almost crazed, he hur-
ried away TO where some choppers |
were at work in the woods and told |
them what had happened and said
that he had sealed his doom. One |
OF the men took the deer's body in-
to the woods, removed the skin, and
threw the carcass In swamp, the
meat being unfit for food at this
time. The skin NE sold for $40.

Aa Obstinate Juryman,

Phillips in his ''Eanous Cases OF
Circumstantial Evidence" reports
the f0llowings -f.., ~ 49,. =.
Two men were seen fighting to-
gether In h tleld. A short time AE-
ter, one of them was found lying
there dead. Close by him lay a
pitchfork, which was known to
belong Ia the man who was seen
quarreiling with him.
The evidence Was overwhelming.
The accused could not deny that
the pitchfork was his, or that he
had quarrelled with, and even
struck the deceased but he sioutly
protested his innocence of the muir
der.
The jury, contrary to theexpecta-
ton of court, bar, and spectators,
were out "A long time. AT last they
came in and informed the court that
they could not agree upon verdict.
10 leaked out that one of their num-
ber would not concur in the verdict
OF guilty which the eleven were
ready to bring In, and nothing
which the court or his colleagues
could say moved him. The jury
were dismissed.
Years after, on his deatil-bed, this
obstinate jurymau confessed that he
himself was the murderer. The
accused man who had quarrelled
with the deceased, had dropped his
pitchfork in the field and gone :
a way.
Soon after, the juryman came In.
to the field, found the pitchfork,
and in the heat OF an accidental
quarrel with the deceased had
killed him and then fled unobserv-
ed. When he found the accused
ln custody, he feared that the evil
ience WAS strong enough TO convict
him. He therefore managed TO get
upon the jury, in order 10 save the
without exposing hiIh-
self TO the gallows.
