That which Came Near Causing the Death
of Child Yesterday.
Some of the children OF this city indulge
in a dangerous pastime which is certain TO
result fatally some day unless their parents
check them before it is too late. 1t il that
of running alongside the street cars and
carts and jumping on them while in mo-
tion. 1t is dangerous practice and one to
which children everywhere are prone ana
which has been the fruitful cause OF accl-
dents.
Yesterday afternoon case OF this Kind
occurred on West Park street IN 'front.' OIL

HE DAKOTA DEMOCRATS
MEASURES T0 SECURE STATE
HOOD FOR SOUTH DAKOTA.

An Important Meeting at Mitchell, Yes
tertiay - Delegates Present from
Twenty-One Counties-A Memorial to
Congress and a Committee to be Sent
to Washington.
MITCHELL, OAK, December 26.-At con-
yention of South Dakota Democrats to-
day for the purpose Of taking actions to
advance the cause OF statehood, delega-
tiors were present from twenty-one coun-
ties. A committee OF the leading Demo-
Gratis OF the territory was appointed to so
to Washington and present the matter be
lore Congress.
As a compact statement OF the case, the
convention adopted memorial to con-
gress. which, after urging division on the
seventh standard parallel, and immediate
admission, represents that the admission
OF the territory Of Dakota by east and
west line for many years has been
desired and expected by its citizens,
that Congress has been memorial'zed to
that end without avail By the successive
legislative assemblies and anticipating di-
vision throughout all thrs',' years in'erven.
ing since the first settlen~itt oi ihr terri
tory, all hope has been guided a..G ali in er-
ests builded to that end.
The constitution adopted at an election
in 1856 is considered as proper and in every
way desirable. Immediate action is urged.

County Treasurer Kessler was yesterday
asked what kind of Territorial license
Harry Gilbert was running his wheel OF for
tune under and replied that he had lot
tery license, the fee on which is $3.50
ouarter, in addition to which he pays a
room license OF $1OO quarter. He said
that he had consulted County Att rney
Dewitt on the subject before granting it
and that the latter had stated that it
would have to be settled by the gamblers
themselves as to the provision 1t
would come under. The opinion
OF several gamblers had been
asked, including that OF Jack Dowd,
and they had replied that the game was a
lottery. Mr.. Kessler said, as far as he was
concerned, he is not responsible ii man ID
runaing a business under the wrong license.
If it comes to his knowledge that man is
conducting business different from that
he has taken out license for he can have
him arrested. But it is the business
of the peace officers to discover
whether a man is running under an 1m-
proper license and have him punished
for having done business under it. The
present license law was passed at the ex-
ira session of the Legislature last year,
and sanctioned every kind of game. He
thought there would be a change in the law
at the coming session, when there would be
some restrictions placed on games per-
mitted to be licensed.

THE WAR 1ROUND SAUKIM.
A Very Decisive Battle, in Which the

A Very Decisive Battle, in Which the
"Rebels" Were Put to ROut.
SUAKIM, December 2O.-The combined
forces of the British and Egyptians, num-
bering 4, 900, made an attack yesterday
upon the rebel position. After au hours
engagement the enemy were driven into the
brush, with reported loss OF 400 billed.
The loss OF the attacking force is said to
have been slight. The latter bivouaced on
the battle field last night. The forces who
followed the fleeing Arabs returned at
night, having chased the enemy to within
four miles OF Haudaub. The enemy ls still
flying.
LONDON, December 2O.-A dispatch from
Saukim says a feature of the fighting was
the determined rush upon the trenches by
the blacks and Egyptians. The Dervishers
fought with the utmost bravery, great
many of them dying in the trenches. The
charge of the hussars was also especially
mentioned. When the Dervish cavalry cav
them coming they dismounted and planted
spears in the ground, but these proved nc
obstruction TO the hussars, who swept
down upon the Dervish horsemen like an
avals nche cut through the ranks and LETT
half OF them dead on the ground. The
hussars then reformed and charged the re-
manning Dervishes, who fed.
| large portion of the Rebel force was
not engaged in to days fighting, being ab
sent camping at Handaub and Wits De
yond, It is believed the Rebels will be re
inforced to make an attempt to retake The
lost position.

New ORLEANS, December ia special
to the States from Wahalak, Miss, says:
The trouble between the whites and blacks
OF this place is not yet settled and serious
trouble and much bloodshed are sure to
follow. 1t is now known that in the past
twenty-four hours at least two negroes,
and perhaps more, have been killed.

was riddled with bullets. The other three
were hanged to surrounding trees. The
posse has sworn to run down all the ne.
groes who fed to the hills on the night of
the affray. There are at least fifteen other
negroes in hiding.
HEDGING IN THE CoLoRED MEN.
Later-Three OF the negroes have been
captured and six more are hedging in so
that escape seems impossible. The
prisoners are at a dilapidated frame building
called white House" ten miles from here
on the brow of one of the highest ranges OF
bills in the neighborhood. They are under
a stroDg guard and the next twenty-four
hours will determine their fate.
