Killing And Burning Everything
 Before Them.
 WICHITA, Kan, July S.-A despatch to the Daily Eagle dated Kingman City, Kan sas, says: "J. B. Wilson, living three and a half miles east of Lawndale, Pratt county, and whose character is vouched for. by the president of the bank at Kingman, arrived at that place this afternoon and says that a man was killed nine miles west of Lawndale last night by band of Indians. A son of the murdered man about twelve years old, who escaped and came into Lawndale, brought the first news of his fathers death. The boy further states that he passed four wagon loads of women and children who were flee ing in the direction of Kingman, at which point the excitement was very great.''
 A later despatch to the Eagle says that three families had just arrived from the set clement beyond and that they report that riders are passing rapidly through the coun- try warning the settlers that the Indians are moving swiftly north and burning every thing before them. The despatch further says that the Governor has been notified by telegraph.
 TOPEKA, Kan, July 9-This city was con siderably aroused last night by the re- ported reception of telegrams announcing e~S VI ties of Pratt and Comanche, and that the marauders were doing great damage to life and property. Yesterday Governor Martin received the following: F'The day operator at Wichita says that an ou u;break was reported in the southern part of l Pratt county to-day. Several were killed | and the balance of the people driven off Stock is all driven out One man who came into Pratt to day says he is the only one left | in his family. The balance were killed, but | the operator does not know how many there were" All possible exertions are being made by the Governor to protect the citizens of the State from outrage by the Indians. 1 The sheriff of Kingman county has receiv- | ed news that Nescatunga, little town of one hundred and fifty people, is in the pos session of the Indians and that Cold Water, some miles further west, is surrounded by them. The sheriff says these reports may
 be sensational, but he requested Governor | Martin to send arms that he may be pre- \ pared. The Governor has ordered the mill
 tary companies at Winfield, Wil1ington and Sterling to be ready to move at moments
 notice and has directed the sheriff of Penney
 county and the Mayor of Dodge City to or ganize forces, send out runLers and notify ! settlers

Messrs. Clark and Frederick Stone, who live just over the Derby line in the town of Orange, lost valuable horse Sunday in a very peculiar manner. The horse was al lowed to run out to pasture, and in one part of the lot, close to stone wall, was an ap- pie tree, under which the horse used to go to be in the shade. By some accident the trunk to the tree had been split open to within about foot of the ground. In some manner the horse got his foot in the crack and was unable to withdraw it and in his struggles threw the other foot into the tree also. Then falling down he broke the bones of both legs, the ends protruding through the flesh. Lying in this position his head was close to the wall, and in his en- deavors to get loose he pounded his head against the wall until death ensued. The owners found him dead Monday morning. They valued it at $200.

THE GREAT TELEPHONE SUIT
Comes to 8 Sudden and Unexpected
 Termination.


 P1TTsBURG, July 8.-The suit of the Bell Telephone company against the Western Pennsylvania company, which has been on trial here since Monday before Judges Me Kenna and Acheson in the United States Circuit court, came to an abrupt termination at noon to-day. William Van Brieson had just concluded his argument for the defense when Judge McKenna interposed stating that he could admit no new defense except what had been presented in ases heretofore. This ruling paralyzed the defense and they retired for few moments for consultation. On reappearing they declined to waste any more time in argument and the injunction asked for by the complainant was immedi- ately granted. This sudden termination created quite an excitement in the court room. The final hearing of the case will be held before the United States Supreme court. It is the opinion of those familiar with the facts on both sides that when the evidence is admitted which the Western Pennsylvania company claim they can produce decision will be granted in their favor,

The Remarkable Case of am Aged
 DRFkeV.

oRANaEBURe, S. O., July 8.-Samuel Crowell, an aged darkey on the farm of John P. Cuttino, twenty miles from this place, while chopping wood yesterday morning was taken violently i'll. Dr. Salley, of this place, was called and found the old man in convul- sions. He kept grasping at his sides as if something was gnawing at his vitals. The physician, observing this, administered an emetic. Soon after the old man began vom- iting and within ten minutes had ejected from his stomach six full grown lizards. The old man soon began to improve and in a couple of hours was able to get out of bed. Investigation proves that four years ago while drinking from a spring the negro swal- lowed what at that time he said was 8 lizard, but as it gave him no trouble he soon forgot it. The one he swallowed was doubtless a female and the others were born in his stomach.
