GOOD SAmARITANa.
President LudinEton,s Report for Il
PaRt

President LudinEton's Report for the
Past Year.
F. D. Ludington, the esteemed and faith
full president of the Good Samarttans Tenn
perance society for the past year, submitted
the following report at the meeting of the
Samaritans held last Thursday evening:
Officers and members, another year has
passed away bearing its freightage of joy
and sorrow that falls to the lot of all, and at
it's close it seems but just to you as well as
to generous public, that I, as president of
this society, give some account of the work
that has been done. OF course no definite
account can be made of the sorrow and suf-
fering we have prevented. We may only
judge by some plain facts and figures that
some good at least has been accomplished.
During the year just closed we nave held
lib public meetings, at which we have Sc
cured 665 signatures to our pledge. We
have collected at these meetings 81, S16. so.
We have received in contributions 1886. So
in sums ranging from $75 to FIVE cents We
have rented our hall for $88, and have made
profit on our entertainments OF $198. 80,
making total of $2,5S9.41.
We have paid to PR. Oarl ,s4S Al

for all of which the treasurer holds receipts.
The hall was kept open as a reading room
from October LIST to April LIST. No record
of number of visitors was kept, suffice it to
say that ordinarily there was good attend
ance, both day and evening. We are under
deepest obligations for reading matter to
Mrs E. j. Heaton, Mrs J. A. Porter and
Mr.. E. M. jerome of the Shore Line Times
It may be we'll also to state that several per-
SONS have been aided pecuniarily (always by
private contributions from our MEMBERS
and that several have been helped to good
situations, how many cannot say as no
record was kept, and to be Good Samaritans
this and much other work must be done in
secret. Do your recruits stick? is a question
often asked. My answer is this:
Go to the churches, nearly every one of
which has members and attendants who were
first picked up by the Good Samaritan soci
ety. or come to our meetings and hear the
of men who are men by virtue of
the work done by this society. In conclusion
permit me to thank you most heartily for
the vigorous and united support you have
given me, and may not ask for those you
may choose to serve you in the future the
same loyal and enthusiastic support you have
given me.
Respectfully submitted,
F. D. LUD1NGToN, president.

BASE BALL WRANGLE.

the Pistol-FOur Men shot, Three of
Whom Will Die.
ST. LOUIS, Sept. IL.

ST. LOUIS, Sept. IL.
special from Houston, Mo-, says: Night
before last, at a farm house near Summer
vile, 81 miles southeast of Houston, in this
county, occurred one of the most fatal trage-
dies ever known in this section. Last Satur-
day, at Summervllr, during game of base
ball, Jere Orchard and Riley Martin engag-
ed 10 violent dispute, but were separated
before coming to blows. Last Thursday a
''corn cutting" was given at the residence of
a farmer near Summerville, and during the
dancing in the evening the base ball dispute
was revived. and pistols were drawn. In the
melee that ensued Orchard was seen to dis
charge his weapon at Martin, the bullet pass
ing entirely through the latter's body. Or
chard was thereupon attacked by friend of
Martins, Stogsdsle by name, who shot him
in the breast infilcting mortal wound.
Stogsdale, not satisfied with his bloody work,
attacked other friends of Orchard, the first
being Zeem McCoskell, whom he shot over
the heart. Lewis Raider, a man of great
strength, thinking this indiscriminate shoot
ing had gone far enough, rushed through the
crowd and attempted to disarm Stogsdale.
The latter had one more charge in his pistol,
and this he fred at Raider, the ball taking
effect in the latter's thigh, and inficting an
ugly wound. Martin, Orchard and McCos-
kell, it is believed, fatally wounded, and Raj
der dangerously so. Great excitement pre-
walls over the affair. Stogsdale has not been
captured, and il believed to be on his wav to
Texas.

Ten Miles arrived here last evening to meet
400 Chiracahua and Warm Spring Indians,
who will pass through here tomorrow from
San Carlos reservation going to Fort Marion,
Fla, by the way of St. Louis. They are the
war element of the Apaches and their re-

troubles. Gen. Miles states that regardless
of what the army and navy journal says, the
Chiracahua and Warm Spring Indians were
now disarmed and were not prisoners of war.
They were placed on the Apache reservation
against the protests of the interior depart
ment and the people of Arizona, and it is
well known here that their removal, when
accomplished, will all be the work of Gen.
Miles, who has been arranging that matter
tor five months against much opposition.

RELEASED.
The Everett steele Released by the Ca.
madam Authorities.

HALIFAX, N. S., Sept. IL.
As was expected by every reasonable per
son, the schooner Everett Steele, detained at
Shelburne yesterday, by the cruiser Terror's
commander, on frivolous and groundess
charge, was released from custody today.
Her release was accompanied by caution,
"Not to do it sgain"-a caution given to
throw out the impression that the schooner
had really committed an offence for which
she might have been punished. Consul Cen
ersl Phsen was astounded upon receiving
the first intmation of the unwarranted seiz-
ure and did not hesitate to express his con-
viction that the Canadian government wonld
order the scheoner's release the moment they
learned the facts. The st. Johns, n. f.,
Colonist, speaking of the Newfoundland and
Canadian fisheries situation says: at is
generally understood now that the act to
regulate the expectation of bait will receive
Her Majesty's assent and become the law Of
the colony. This will place this colony IN a
strong position toward, not only the French
who are fighting US in foreign markets, but
toward the Americans, who, while closing
their own markets against US. are still
competing with us on the banks and other
fishing grounds of British North Amer
ica. The leading statesman in England,
Canada and the United States now
clearly recognize the necessity of settling the
fishery question of North America by an in
ternational fishery commission similar TO
that which settled the question of the North
Sea fisheries a few years ago, convention
at which England, France and the United
States would be represented by high com
missioners, from Canada and Newfoundland.
We understand her msjesty's government
has been informed that the President of the
United States will ask for such commission
on the next opening of Congress, and that
the leading democratic and republican states
men will assent to his wishes. OF course
Newfoundland will be represented at such
