in TINS county, is being prosecuted By a
secret enemy On Monday, Oct. 4, about
midday, large Baystack rear his barn
was fired and burned. A cOlored girl on
the place saw strange dog leaving the
premises just after the IRE blaZed up, but
saw no person. The next day about the
same hour she saw a large negro 90 up 10
the barn and set ii on flre. He turned 10
the girl and told her he would Kill her IL
she told on him. After staying until the
flames were too far advanced 10 save the
building he walked of. de was accom-
panied by the strange dog the girl saw the
day before. On Saturday last Mr., Taylor's
two COWS were found dead in pasture on
the plantation, where number of other
cattle were grazing. From the descrIp-
tlon given by this girl Of the man she saw
fire the barn he Is thought to be a negro
from the Chester side Of the river. Every
effort Will be made to Identify and punish
the sooundrel.
On the farm of Jenkins Majors, four
miles from Pelser, near z. 7. Richard
sons, appears assure IN the ear tn run
Mug east and west. The assure IS said
TO be two inches wide in some places. and
can be distinctly traced through a cotton
field for some distance, and through a
piece of wooded land. Where a tree is on
the line OF the f ssure it VIII expose the
roots OF the tree, shaking of the dirt from
the roots. Two cross assures OF less mag
nitude appear, running in southeast d.
rection. Zion T. Richardson, a gentle
man well known III Greenville, says he
ran mis- walking cane INTO the assure in
several places and could touch no bot
rom." The neighbors first thought it was
simply what is known a. a "dry weather
crack" in the ground, but Mr.. Rlchar ison
says it must have been caused by the
ear hquake. as he never saw such Tentln
the earth before. III seems strange that
this has not been observed before now.
but it is accounted tor BY the neighbors
because IL is an "out-oi-the-way" place,
and was first discovered by hands picking
cotton.

A. Atlanta Saturday Judge Clarke
heard an application Of Foster Mii5orn &
Co.. Of Butfato @. y. Y, manufacturers OF
BurdQck's Blood Bitjers. TO enlOln the
Botanic Bleed Balm Company, Of Atlanta,
from the infringe meut Of a trade mark.
hese two companies use 8. 3. b. as tnelr
trade mark, ana toe packages are put up
in the same style. The bottle containing
the med cine is first placed in paste
board box aud then ed 10 wrap
per, with B. b. B. printed ali over the
package. Foster, Mil0Orn i Co. claim that
the Atlanta company mas adopted ihelr
trade mark, and want an injunction
granted to prevent the infringement upon
its rights. The Atlanta company claims
that while B. r. 5. IS used as its trade
mark, there ID no infringement upon the
rI<hts of the Buffalo trm. and in support
OF this claim produce a package put up
by the Botanic Medicine Company, OF
New York, said TO contain sars2parills,
and also marked Il. B. B on the wrapper.
4 vast amount OF evidence, gathered
from every Stste IN the Union. was intro
duced on both sizes of the case, showing
tlst neither time nor money had been
consulted In gathering this character OF
evidence. Judge Clarke did not conclude
the hearing of the case, aud will resume
work pom il Saturday next IN chambers.
A few nights ago there occurred on the
plantation Of David Wagsoner, ia Madi-
son county, a ficultY that will probably
result in the death Of cOiOred man
named Henry Glenn. George Cunning
nam. Jr.. and man named Patterson,
formerly a guard at Col. smiths convict
camp. were passing through Mr.. Wag-
goneT's place when they passed Henri
Glenn in the road, and it being dark,
asked VINO it was. Upon being in
formed, Cunningham remarked with n
oath that he was the man be was after,
aud jumping from mis- horse started TO
grab Henry, who escaped and ran into
his house near by, pursued by the men.
Cunningham fret started in after him,
but failing to get Henry TO come out, then
sent Patterson, hut he, too, failed. Cum
bingham then again tried his luck, and
on assuring the negro that they only
wanted 10 talk a little, Glenn agreed to
come out, but had only got half way 70
the gate when Patterson, who had passed
lis friend, tripped tie boy up. Cunning
ham at once drew bis knife and began to
cus him IN a fearful manner, inficting
wounds that 1t is probable will result
fatally. Neither of the white men have
as yet been arrested, but warrants have
been issued for them. The origin OF the
difficulty was q little trouble between
Cunningham ana Glenn some time be-
fore.

A Sad Affair.

Nellie Barrett, of New Haven, Conn.,,
aged thirty-three, was drowned at
Southwick Ponds on Saturday, l1th in
slant. She was member OF the big
railroad excursion to that place, and
John Donovan, young man whom she
was expecting soon to marry. escorted
her and a younger sister. Early in the
afternoon the three took rowboat and
went to the center of the lake, where
the water is thirty feet deep. Three
men who we've in an adjoining boat con-
trived to tip themselves over, and one
of them. in trying to save himself by
getting into the boat where Miss Barrett
was, overturned it, so that half dozen
people were struggling in the water at
the same time. A rush was made to the
spot by the other boats, Miss Barretrs
escort, who coulC. not swim. trying to
keep her up meanwhile by treading
water. But, just rs they were both
about to be rescued, she slipped from
his arms and sank to the bottom. All
the other people were taken from the
water unframed. Miss Barrett's lover
was driven crazy by her death. He not
only had to be handcuffed, but was also
tied in the car which took him TO New
Haven late in the afternoon.

Try This AT hOrgan's Grove.

A dispatch from Waterfowl, n. \ :,
saws: CAS- an attraction to the county
fair now being held here, and as a
method of advertising the wares of vari-
Gus merchants, gifts consisting Of full
wedding outfit and various articles
amounting in value to $500. were offered
to the couple who would be married
before the public on the grounds.
Charles |. Corey and Carrie B. Clark, Of
Black River, responded, and to- day, on
an elevated stand in front of crowd of
10000 persons, were joined in matri-
mony. The ceremony took place under
an arch of flowers, from the center Of
which hung floral yoke. The band
played the Swedish wedding march as
the pair assembled the platform. The
ceremony was performed by Rev. Mr..
Townley, of Watertown. Hon. X. Z.
Flower was one Of the first to congratu-
late the bride. He gave her kiss, and
to the groom he gave three ten dollar
bills. The Rome, Watertown and
Ogdensburg Railroad Company gave
the pair a wedding trip to Niagara Falls
and return.

Killed by a Hornets sting

Hiram Cooling was rakinS buck
wheat in field on his farm at Potter's
Hill, Pa, on Tuesday last. Suddenly
his son, who was at work near by, saw
him fall to the ground us though he had
been struck with an axe. Young Good
ing hurried to the spot and found his
father black in the face and frothing at
the mouth. lie carried him to a spring
near by, and succeeded in restoring him
to consciousness, but the farmer was
blind and unable to help himself. He
complained of terrible pain in his
head. The son found lump at the base
of his fathers skull rs large rs his fist.
He then remembered that there was Il
hornets nest on tree few feet from
where his father had been working, and
noticed that the hornets were flying
about the nest in an unusual manner.
Cooling was carried home and physi-
clan called. The physician said the
farmer had been stung by a hornet, and
the sting had struck a nerve at the base
of the brain. On Wednesday Gooding
became entirely paralyzed, and died in
great agony.

A Strange Occurrence.

One of the strangest fatalities OH rec
ord occurred on Monday night, near
Danville, Va. Lucien Motley, son OF
Mr.. Mat Motley, Of that city, and Mr..
b. w. Hurst, tax collector for North
Danville, met their deaths at the same
spot, AID in precisely the same manner,
within few hours time. Some time
during Monday night, young Motley,
while probably under the influence of
liquor, fell from bluff some twenty
five feet high, at the rear of his fathers
house, and was instantly killed by
breaking his neck. His body was dis
covered on Tuesday morning, and among
those attracted to the spot was Mr..
Hurst. Strange and terrible to relate,
while he was peering over the place
from which young Motley fell, he, too,
lost his balance and was precipitated
down the bank, and his neck was also
broken by the fall. The chapter Of ac-
cidents furnishes no coincidence more
remarkable than this, which has created
great sensation and widespread regret
among the friends Of the victims.

Religious Excitement.

Religious excitement among the col
ored people of Savannah, Ga, since the
earthquake has been something remark
able. Revivals have been in progress
nightly at the Baptist churches, and
converts have averaged fifty every SER
vice. Sunday last over three hundred
were baptised in the Ogeechee canal,
near the city, and the entire colored
population was out. Next Sunday
another baptising will take place of four
hundred negroes. a majority of the
converts are women. They are thor
oughly impressed with the belief that
the end of the world is nearing, and that
doomsday will fall on the 10Th, accord
ing to the predictions of an old colored
woman, who, thought to be dead, recov-
cred from trance, and announced the
date of the worlds dissolution. This
prediction, coming after the earthquake,
completely stupefies the colored popula-
ton.

LippincOtI's Monthly Magazine.

THE Experience Meetings in LIPPINCoTT's
MAGAZINE have proved among the most pop
ular OF recent innovations In magazine liter
AZURE. Few articles have been more widely
read and more freely quoted than the literary
confessions of Julian Hawthorne, Ella
Wheeler Wilcox, Joel Chandler Harris, Ed
gar Fawcett, Joaquin Miller, ETC., and the
experiences of Mrs. James Brown Potter,
John NJ. Ward, l.. +. Myers, and other pro-
fessional or amateur celebrities. Encour-
aged by this success. the editor has deter
mined, by dropping the fiction OF an Expert
ence Meeting and placing the articles in the
body of the periodical, 10 give each author
the privilege of celebrating at his pleasure
instead OF combining himself within the limits
of a special department. The experiences in
the September numoer of the Magazine are
furnished by Brander Matthews, in "Random
Recollections'' OF his literary career. and by
John Boumahn in Experiences OF Cow
Boy" both interesting bits OF autobiography.
IL Is announced that papers OF a similar char
acter have been secured from Walt Whit
man, George Parsons Lathrop, Lolita, Rob-
ert j. Burdette, Clara Barton, T.. L. Roe H
II. Boyesen, K. II. Stoddard, George Alfred
Townsend, and many others. Taken by
SIEGE" the anonymous American serial
which has excited SO much attention and
curiosity, is concluded. "a Bachelors Blum
der" by W. Z. Norris, is continued and is as
charming as ever. j. ;. of Dale has an ex-
ruhe." Mrs. Bloomfield Moore, one OF the
most earnest hackers Of the Kelly Motor
Company, gives the reasons for the hath that
Is in her. w. II. Babcock, in Carols and
Child-Lore at the Capital" continues his
studies In juvenile folklore. There are po-
ems by Edgar Fawcett, Louise Chandler
Moulton, and Clinton Scollard. In the
Monthly Gossip, lady from Philadelphia
argues with a great deal OF wit and Gle yerness
that woman was created the superior OF man.
