ALEXANDRIA.
Accidentally Shot While Hunting-Lee's
Prospects In Fauquier.

ALEXANDRIA, VA, Nov. 3.-[Special. =
While hunting in Prince William on Satur-
day with Mr.. Bernard Smith, of Winches-
ter, DIR. Brewer, of Haymarket, was acci.
dentally shot in the face by the former,
and was painfully wounded, the sight of
one of his eyes having been destroyed. Dr.
Brewer has gone 10 Philadelphia, where he
will enter hospital.
In Judge Chichester's court John Ushen
and Tom Lucas were fined one hundred dol
lars for allowing gambling on their prem
ises near Acqueduct bridge.
From Fauqirer, the news to-day is that
General Lees majority there will be even
larger than has been anticipated. Mr.. John
Middleton, one OF the leading Republicans
Of that county, has openly announced that
be will not vote Tor Mr.. Hume. A private
letter received today from Colonel Robert
Beverly OF the Farmers Alliance also says
that General Lee will get larger majority
in the county, and that the Republicans
thero are not for Hume.
The fair and bazaar for the benefit Of the
Alexandria lnfirmary opened at the ar

most favorable auspices. The centre OF the
drill-room, l25xl0O feet, is arranged TO seat
500 spectators to the amateur theatrical en-
tertainments, and around 1t are score OF
booths, flower stands, ETC., which are novel
and pretty in design, and laden with about
everything pretty, useful, ornamental. and
good. There are about 100 ladies interested
in this affair, and they are the towns peo-
pie generally from all churches and insti-
buttons, irrespective of race, condition or
religion.

SOUTH CAROLINA STRUGGLE.
Both TiiIman and Haskell Men Confident.
Cotton-Pickipg.

CHARLESTON. s. c., Nov. 3.-"Gala
Week. here closes to-day. As all parts OF
the state have been pretty well represented,
il is safe to presume that the merchants
and hotel people have reaped bounteous
harvest. and the politicians also have been
able 10 gauge puOlic sentiment as TO the
forthcoming contest with some degree OF
certainty. From all that we can gather, IL
canuOt be denied that Haskell viii make
the struggle a very close one. Tillman men,
however. seem confident OF electing their
man. and but for the cOlOred vote his sue
cess would be assured. The Executive
Committee of the Republicans have urged
their followers 10 vote Tor Haskell, and
the worst feature Of the case is, that should
he win in the race, the Republican nomi.
nces for Congress will have strong ground
for cOntestng the seats Of such Democrats
n NAV be elected. Charleston seems 10 be
very strongly in favor Of Haskell; the cOun-
ties, however, seem equally as strong IN
favor of Tillman. Some trouble may be an
ticipated on the day of election, unless the
wiser counsel OF Senator Hampton pre-
walls. who strongly urges that no ground
be given for argument in favor OF the IN
famous Force bill.
i CottOn-picking is nearly over throughout
the state; fair crop, though not IA iull one,
ON account of TOO much rain. As the pro-
cceds thereof come in. and the approach OF
frosty weather with its sold hyars,' ana
Christmas. with its visions of good cheer,
become visible, the hearts OF the small boy
and the coored brother begin to throb with
an accelerated impulse, and wild ''possums"
and tame chickens are compelled 10 roost a
few pegs higher in order to be entirely out
Of harms way.
Barnum's circus gave an exhibition here
yesterday, though it was not considered

AN ACCIDENT AT BILOXI.
The Attempt Made by a Young Lady to
save Life.

The following nom me New Orleans
Picay une will interest many In this city:
Judge james Z. McTeer, a member OF the
bar from Virginia, who happened to be ON
the Louisville and Nashville train coming
10 this city yesterday, sends the following
communication to the Picayune:
Editor Picayune: was passenger to-
day on the Louisville and Nashville train,
which was i've hours late. Before reaching
the long bridge beyond Biloxi, the engineer,
running at full speed, observed negro
man on the irestle work, near tho north
end.
The negro observing the approaching
train and hearing the warning signals,
turned aside and clung for "A moment 10 q
telegraph pole. lie then left bis place OF
safety and ran for the next pole, In bis ex-
citement forgetting 10 jump TO the water, q
distance OF perhaps bfteen feet. Despite
the engineers warning signals, he st0pned
sull, bowed his head and the pilot OF tho
engine crushed his skull, knocked him into
the water, where ne ioundered and strug-
gled about for some minutes.
BIT this Is not the gist OF the accident.
The water was. l suppose. two and q half
fee. deep, and i've or six big, stalwart negro
men stood by and refused 10 run In aud try
to save the unfortunate mans life.
From house near by was seen a beauti-
ful girl OF some eighteen summers TO run
with all possible speed, dash into the water
and pull the dying man 10 the shore. where
he expired In few moments.
This noble, daring, heroic deed was OBJ
served by a train full of passengers, who
from their position on the bridge were un-
able to render help.

world how the poor, down. trodden negro is
oppressed % by the white people Of tho

WILLIAM AND MARY COLLEGE.
Meeting Of the Executive Committee -
President Tyler's Report.

WILLIAM AND MARY COLLEGE, Nov. s.
Special. The Executive Committee of the
College, consisting Of Messrs. Taliaferro
Massey, Thompson, Stubbs, and Warner 7.
Jones, met here last week, ana received
President Tyler's report OF the institution.
There were then l6I registered on the books,
of whom llS were pursuing course 10 pre-
pare for teaching. \ large number Of those
who were here last year are already fulhi-
ing their pledge TO teach in the public
schools. Two of them, Il. A. Lynn, Of Lou
dOun, and Kills Campbell, Of King Will
liam. stood such satisfactory examinations
before the Superintendent of Public lnstruc-
ton as to receive appointments TO the Pea
body Normal School at Nashville, where
they will be entitled to schol ,rships Of $500.
The committee provided for many inn
prove about the building. An iron
fence will take the place Of the Daling facing
Duke of Gloucester street, and new wooden
railing will surround the rest OF the tri-
angular front of the college green. The
committee also passed resolution endors-
ing the action Of the faculty in prosecuting
the liquor men for selling liquor to the
students last session. Ii is hoped there will
be no trouble from this source again.
Strong hopes are entertained that the bill
providing $4,000, reported unanimously
from the War Claims Committee OF the
House Of Representatives, will pass next
session. Major Henry {. semple, the col
lege agent, writes in hopeful terms about it,.
President Tyler has commenced upon the
bi-centennial catalogue ofthe college, which
he hopes to complete before 1898, the bi-cen-
tennial year OF the institution. He solicits
information from all parties interested. A
college journal, edited by the students, Will
be nnblish this session.
