Charged With the Death of His Son.

LEBANON, Ind, Sept. l5.-John Piersel, a
worthless and drunken scamp living in
jamestown, this county, was brought to the
city by Officer Arch Wills charged with
having caused the death of his son, boy
about ten years old. The boy has been
living with his grandparents most of the
time for the last two years, but it seems that
last Saturday Il week he was at his fathers
and for some reason or other the father
knocked him down and choked him. The
boy then returned TO his grandfather'S, and
that night his throat began swelling and
finally liberated, and on Thursday evening
he died. A post mortem examination was
held on Friday and the physicians came 10
the conclusion that his death was caused by
the injuries inflicted by the unnatural father.

INDIANA DYNAMlTERS.
Farmers Charged With knocking Ont the
Banks OF the Wabash g. Erie Canal.

WABASH, Ind, Sept ia hevay charge
Of dynamite was exploded in the Wabash &
Erie canal, three miles west of Lagro, last
night, by unknown parties, and the mills and
factories here which depend upon the canal
for water power could scarcely run. Farm
srs along the canal are determined to force
the Wabash Hydraulic company, which con-
trolls the canal, to abandon it
A short time ago negro lunatic conceived
the idea of running small steamer between
Lagro and Wabash. This necessitated the
destruction Of a dozen bridges by which
farmers crossed the canal and reached their
fields beyond The plan adopted by them of
blowing out the tow path with dynamite
and turning the water into the Wabash river
will doubtless put q stop to the steamboat
business, as the Hydraulic company collects
enormous rents here for the use Of river
water. There is considerable excitement
over the matter both here and at Lagro, and
considerable speculation is INDUCED in as to
the termination Of the affair. 1t is reported
that the citizens of Lagro offered a reward
of 500 several days ago to any man who
would render the canal useless, but the story
lacks confirmation.

SOcIALISTIC LECTURE.

dresses the feople OF BRIDGEPORT
BRIDGEPORT, Conn, Sept l5.-Dr Ed
ward Aveling, fellow Of University college,
London, and his wife Eleanor Marx Ave
ling, youngest daughter of Karl Marx, ad-
dressed an audience Of some z, 900 people here
yesterday evening, under the auspices Of the
Socislistic Labor party. DR.. Aveiing, as q
preliminary to his address, gave tho follow
ing description Of the Socialistic campaign
in America, which the meeting inaugurated
This party has German and an American
section. The former is strong, the latter
weak. To the German section, Her Wilhelm
Liebknecht, member of the Reichstag, one Of
the leaders Of the Socialist party in Germany,
will speak in various parts Of the states dur
ing the next three months.
To the American section Dr. and Mrs.
Aveling will give addresses with especial
view TO recruiting their numbers from the
many labor organizations Of America The
Socialist agitators believe that many work
ingmen members OF these organizations are
in principle Socialists. Thsy hope to induce
such men to openly avow their Socialism,
ald whilst by no means negiecting the Oh
jects for which the Knights Of Labor, the
trades unions, the Central Labor union, and
kindred organizations work, TO regard these
as only means to an end, and that end, from
the view of the Socialists, should be the en-
tire emancipation Of labor in all lands from
the dominion of capital in the hands OF pri-
vate persons: in a word, the cessation OF pri-
vate property as the means of production,
which will then be held by the community
only, for the benefit Of the community.
This end will be sought for by the Socialists
through the medium Of education, organiza-
ton and political action. They disclaim all
communion and any sympathy with the An
archiSts, whom they refuse to recognize as
really socialists The aims and methods of
the Anarchists the three speakers from
Europe wholly repudiate, though they look
upon the verdict and sentence on the Chicago
Anarchists and the comments Of the press on
these as not justified by the evidence ad-
duced in court, and as prompted by an un-
reasoning public.
DIR. Aveling spoke for about an hour on the
cause of the misery in the society Of to-day,
which he ascribed tO the way goods are pro
duced and distributed. And to the system OF
unpaid laber, j. E., that labor Of the working
classes which is wholly for tho benefit Of the
non-workers, and is wholly unremunerated,
and the only remedy, the naturalization, or
rather decentralization, Of the means OF
production, and in the methods.by whioh this
great change is u DC effected.
Mrs. Aveling spoke for about twenty min
utes on tho position and work of women. On
Thursday the English speakers will be at
New Haven, and on Saturday at Meriden
On Sunday picnic and open air reception
Of their guests is to bo held by the organiza-
tions at one of tho New York parks. On

ling, and Herr liebknecht, will speak at the
Socialistic meetings to be held at the Cooper
Union, in New York
