SAN FRANCISCO. July 3.-War has
broken out in Chinatown again between
two powerful factions of highbinders.
A rich old pawbroker named Ah Sing
Surf, belonging to the See Yup society,
purchased a good looking girl in Hong
Kong recently and had her shipped to
San Francisco as his daughter. Some
hard swearing had to be done tosget the
girl through the custom house, as she
was only fourteen years old, and evil
dently a half breed. Several high
binders belonging to the Cab Sin Sur
society, of professional robbers and per-
jurers, corroborated the pawnbroker'S
testimony, and he was allowed to carry
off his prize to Chinatown. A rival
highbinder, head man in the Bo Sin
Seer society. resolved to abduct the
girl, and Sunday night, accompanied by
four armed cut-thrOatS, he burst into
the pawnbroker's lodgings and carried
her away after knocking the old man
on the head so that he lay stunned for
an hour. When the pawnbroker re-
covered he appealed to the Cab Sin Sur
highbinderS to rescue the girl, and in
cited by professional pride and re-
ward of several hundred dollars, the
highbinderS opened war on the kidnap-
ers. Several hot skirmishes have Oc-
Cured within the last forty-eight hours,
and half dozen Cinnamon have been
injured by hatchets and pistol shots.
A detail of police have been sent to
Chinatown to repress the heather
billigerents.

HUNTER, OAK, July 3.-A peculiarly
sad case of lightning's fatal work has
Just come to light through neighbor,
who reports that last Friday night dur
ing the storm the house of a NOrwe-
gian named Ole Olstad, about eight
miles northwest of this place, was
struck by lightning. The house was
what is known as sod shanty,
occupied by Olstad, his wife
and their eight-mOnths old
baby. On Saturday the neighbors, not
seeing signs of life about the premises,
Investigated. Etfecting an entrance
into the house they found Olstad ly-
ing on the floor near the door, dead,
with his head
BURNED TO A CRISP,
the clothing nearly burned from the
body, and the flesh in places blacEened
and peeling from the bones.
Near by lay the body
of his wife badly burned
about the face and shoulders, her
features barely recognizable. On the
bed in corner of the room, beneath
large 1eaCnef pillow, lay Tile ~pdDe ull-
harmed, kicking its heels in the air and
laughing and enjoying itself. An eX-
animation of the building showed that
the bolt entered the house by way
of the chimney, passing down and
scattering pieces of the stove about the
room. Another and equally sad cir
cumstance in connection with the affair
is the fact that Olstad had sent money
to the old country to enable his
AGED FATHER AND MOTHER
to come and live with him. On Satur-
day morning the old couple arrived i'll
Hunter, and were driven to the resi-
dence of their son, accompanied
by an unmarried brother, who
lives in Minnesota and had
joined them in st. Paul, thinking to
make the family reunion complete.
The grief of the parties when they az
rived at the farm can better be i'm
agined than described. The babe is
being taken care of by the neighbors.
What will be the outcome of the mat
ter is not known, as it is understood
that no great amount will accrue from
the estate.

WAsECA, July 3.-This was the OPEN
ing day at the fifth annual Chautauqua
assembly, which will be held at Maple
wood park, near this city, and which
will continue eighteen days. The park
is situated about one mile and half
from the city, on the banks of Clear
lake, acknowledged to be one of the
prettiest sheets of water in all Mime
sofa. The spot is rich in all the charms
which nature seems to love to bestoW
here and there on favored localities.
No pains have bnen spared by the Ma
plewOod Park association, and the
grounds were never in SO handsome a
shape as now. Six handsome cottages
have been built, and other substantial
Improvements made. Everything on
the grounds show regular order and
good management. The business
houses are all placed in line on what is
called Linden avenue, and not scattered
prOmiscuouSly about the grounds as
they are usually found at places OF this
kind. The extension of the water
works system, and the adoption of a
plan of perfect sanitation pro-
tects from any danger i'll that quarter.
The officers or the assembly are as
follows: Superintendent of instruction,
Rev. A. H. Gilbert. d. D., CINCINNATI,
o.; musical director, Prof. G. G. Case,
Cleveland, o.; president of the Assem-
bly, association, Rev. j. f. Chatfee. ID.

pared, but the directors showed COM

Bristol is widely known throughout
the Northwest and is an able and elo-
quent speaker. Many well known pub
lie speakers, lecturers, and eminent
be in attendance and take part in the
exercises on each day during the assem-
bly,. Boats, ETC., are at hand and may
be had by all who wish to indulge in
fishing and other aquatic sports.
THE EVENING EXERCISES
of the opening day at the assembly, at
Maplewood park, were interesting, in
structive and entertaining, and con-
sisted of sports, platform addresses by
the officers of the association and
others. At s p. m. there was a
grand illumination of the grounds,
fireworks, steamer excursions, music
and other amusements. The large au-
ditorium was well filed with people
during the evening addresses, notwith-
standing the rain which fell during the
afternoon. One hundred and twenty
five tents are already put up in the park
and the whole presents the appearance
of city of sheets.

CHICAGO, July 3.-An elopement. to
which the theatrical profession fur

part is none other than May
Yohe, a footlight favorlte who
is noted for her remarkably fine con-
tralto voice and a fair face, both of
which made her quite favOrite with
the susceptible young men of Chicago.
1t seems that the young men were not

charms. According to the story re-
ferred to Miss Yohe, accompanied by
Edward B. Shaw, visited the races Mon

daughter of leading insurance man of
this city. 1t is said that Mr..
Shaw on the day mentioned
had business engagement in
Cleveland, and that after the
races he concluced to take Lake
Shore train for that point. Miss Yohe
accompanied him to the train, and here
her friends take up the thread of the
story, and say that while she was bid
ding him farewell the horrid train
moved off. At any rate, the next word
traltO was from Cleveland. From
this on it is not an easy
matter to trace the couple.
Miss Yohe's mother assured Manager
Henderson, of the theater, that her
daughter would positively appear at the
matinee tomorrow. Not only that. but
Miss Yohe is now in the city. When
questioned little more closely as to the
exact residence of Miss Yohe at pres
ent, she said that she was living with
friends at No. 500 Division street. In

erS' Lockout Remains the Same
Both Sides Sanguine.
PITTsBURG, Pa, July 3.-The iron
lockout presented no new features
to-day. No more signatures were OBJ
tanned by the Amalgamated people to
their scale up to noon, and there were
no indications of either side giving in.
The manufacturers say that before they
decided to resist the wOrkmen's scale.
they calculated that certain firms would
sign the scale, and they look for at least
two more mills to resume before the end
these few firms they claim, however,
will have no effect on the general situa-
ton, as there are seventy-one firms in
the Western association who are de-
termined to resist the scale. Moor
head, McCleane & Co. paid off their
men to-day and closed down indefnit-
ly. In speaking of the lockout
to-day Max Moorhead said: "There
are some firms that cannot af-
ord to remain idle. We can, and
unless the men give in we shall not
start before November. In the present
condition of the market it is doubtful
whether we should resume before Sep.
tember under any circumstances"
L luC WOlhuCIi dPpCol W uC WClt odllS-

IDENTIFY assert that the lockout will not
last very long. The thirteen firms that
have signed the scale operate sixteen
mills and employ about $4,000 men.
A Youngstown, uOhio, dispatch
says there is no change in
the situation there. All outgoing
trains are crowded with iron workers
and their families. going to visit friends.
The manufacturers show no disposition
to sign the scale.
At 9 O'Clock this afternoon word was
received at the Amalgamated headquar-
ters that the Scottdale Iron and Steel
company, of Scottdale, Pa, had signed
the scale, and would continue their
plant in full operation.
Carnegie & Co.'s Homestead mills
signed the Amalgamated association
wage scale to-day. 1t is authOritatively
stated this evening that the Lin
den Steel and Iron company
at Soho and the Labelle steel
works, Allegheny City. will sign
the scale within few hours. In the
mills whose proprietors have signed the
scale, 1900 men are employed. 1t is
confidently expected that there will be

OF the convention of Democratic clubs
tomorrow. The Academy of Music
