WITHOUT WARNING.
Isha am G.. O'Neal of Little Rock,
Dies Instantly of Heart Fail
ure.

Shortly before IL o'clock last Sunday
morning Isham q. O'Neal, Little Rock
business man, was str icken by death
without warning and while he was en-
joying apparent good health. He was
standing Oh chair adjusting window
curtain, when he WAS attacked with
heart failure, fell backward and died
instantly. Coroner Bond held an In
quest and the verdict of the jury was !:
"The deceased came to his death from
heart disease, accelerated by business
troubles and anxiety"
The deceased removed from this place
to Little Rock about three years ago
and engaged in the grocery business,
which was attended with varying fort
une. About four weeks ago his stock
was attached on complaint of an i'm
Fortunate creditor forcing him into the
courts for relief. This created despond-
ency and caused his death.
Monday afternoon, at the family resi-
dence, DIR. Miller, of the M. K. church,
south. to which church the deceased be-
longed, delivered an impressive funeral
discourse, after which the remains
were taken to Bradford, in White coun-
ty, for inteFment.
The deceased leaves a wife and daugh-
ter, who contemplate moving to Rus
sellville to reside.
May God, In the infinitude Of his NOR
cy, assuage the grief that weighs down
this devoted wife and daughter. and
comfort them with the reflection that
Earth hath no sorrow which Heaven
cannot heal"

More Trouble Among tho Third District

CHARLESTON, W. VA, May 27.-Much
excitement is caused here in Democratic
circles by the discovery OF scheme to
have the Democratic Congressional Ex-
ecutive Committee call a primary elec-
tion in this Congressional district and
thereby ignore the action OF a lmber Of
the counties that have held conventions
and appointed deleS Sates to the Congress
sional Convention for this district. Six
Connties Of the sixteen composing the
Third District have held conventions,
and all the candidates went in and made
their fight.
Anderson comes out ahead, and now
the Congressional Committee, majority
OF which is said TO be in favor OF st. Clair
and Snyder, will be asked, and it is un-
derstood have promised, without being
asked to do so by single col1ty in the
district, to order primary election. AS
the proposed action is withoIt prece-
dent, and the County Com .liStses have
heretofore uniformly fixed the mode OF
appointing their own delegates, the
counties that have he'd con yentions and
those that have called them, will resent
this action, and will insist on their own
right to select their own delegates in
their own way, without dictation from
any committee. II such revolution in
party policy be carried out rs is under
stood to be settled on the gravest results

AN UNNATURAL son
Hires Colored Man to Murder His Father.
A Terrible Crime.

IlECh u hAah ~ AAAh
A Terrible Crime.
CoLuMDUs, S. G., May pa few days
ago, as Joseph James, living near Tim.
monsville, Darlington county, was sit
ting at his supper table with his only son,
a gun was fired through window and a
load OF buckshot entered his side, killing
him instantly. The coroner held an in.
quest, but there was no evidence point
ing to the assassin.
Young James is the murdered mans
sole heir. His father possessed consid.
cradle land and money, and did small
banking business, but he was something
Of miser, lived in very ordinary style,
and held his son, who is % years old, in
check.
A few days after the murder, there
was n general suspicion that the assassin
had been hired to commit the deed by
some one interested in James death, and
the finger Of suspicion was pointed at
his son. The young man was highly in
censed, and went to Darlington to have
his accusers indicted for SANDER, but
while in town he was arrested and is
now in Jail.
Two negroes, Louis Williams and
William Scott, were also arrested. They
swear that young James offered them
$500 each 10 kill his father, but that
they refused to do 1t, and that Robert
Arthur, colored, accepted the offer and
committed the crime. He was told
where to find a revolver, and he got IT
and fired.
Arthur has, up to this time, escaped
arrest, but large reward has been Of.
fered for his capture, and he will not es.
cape. A public meeting will be held in
Darlington to form plans to push the
case TO the end.

England. In the States OF the Ohio Val,

General Remarks-The weather for the
week past is generally favorable in the
States OF the Mississippi valley, result
ing in general improvement OF the crop
conditions. Local storms have caused
some damage in Arkansas and Louisiana,
rendering It necessary to replant cotton
in some sections. The continuous rains
during the past week have retarded farm
work in the middle Atlantic States, but
the conditions OF wheat, rye, oats and
grass have been improved.

THE TRADES ASSEMBLY,.
Knights of Labor Lodges Withdraw and
others Remain.

A regular meeting of the Ohio Valley
Trades Assembly was held at its hall in
this city yesterday afternoon. The at-
tendance was quite large and large
amount of routine and secret business
was disposed Of. About the only thing
that transpired that was of public inter
est was in the matter of the trouble be-
tween the Knights OF Labor and the
Amalgamated Association over the
Riverside's steel plant at Benwood,
which has proved such adisturbing fac.
tor for several weeks past. Formal
notice OF withdrawal from the Assembly
was received from the knights OF Labor
lodge of steel workers ut Belaire and
two Knights Of Labor lodges at Ben
wood.
A well known Knights Of Labor man,
q prominent member OF the Assembly,
in speaking on the motion to permit the
without any effort being
made to keep the lodges in, referring TO
reports that had been put in circulation
to the effect that there was danger Of a
split in the Assembly that would wreck
I, us result OF the black-listing of
knights OF Labor men employed in the
Riverside, and other actions taken blythe
Assembly in this matter, said there was
10 truth in them. AS he put it the two
Knights OF Labor lodges at BenwOod had
lot come into the Assembly until the
rouble originated, and then they came
n merely in hope OF being sustained
n their actions by the Assembly as
!gainst the Amalgamation men. The
assembly having refused to receive one
Knights Of Labor lodge, and having fail-
ID tosustain the othertwo, they now, after
icing in for few weeks only, and being
disappointed wanted to withdraw. The
Assembly, he said, would lose very lit
le by it, nothing in fact even il il did
Ose the Bellaire X. of l.. lodge, which
Ias been in the Assembly for some time.
Other X. OF l.. members OF the Assem-
,ly echoed these remarks and pledged
