fore the Supreme Court of the United

A RACE AROUND THE WORLD

In November two young ladies,
Miss Nellie Bly, and Miss Bisland, left
New York for q race around the world,
one going east and the other west.
Several persons in New berry have been
watching the race Of these young ladies
with considerable interest. Various
guesses and possibly bets, as to
the time it would take to make
this trip, aud which young lady
would reach New York first, have been
made. The Augusta Chronicle of
Tuesday has the following in regard to
the race, which may be of interest:
The race around the world between
two enterprising young women is near
ing an interesting point. 1t is known
that Nellie Bly, is on the Pacific ocean
and is due in San Francisco to-day. She
left New York November II on the
Augusta Victoria for England, arriving
at southampton on November -. On
the same day that Miss BY sailed for
England, Miss Bisland left for san
Francisco, and has been travelling west
ever since. She reached Paris on Sat
urday, too late for the Havre steamer,
and hastened to London in time to
catch the Bothnia, the slowest of the
Cunardels.
If Nellie Bly, reaches San Francisco
to-day she will still be five days from
New York, and rs Miss Bisland has
already covered three days of her At
lantic trip. the chances Of her getting TO
her journeys end is as good as her
rivals. Had Miss Bisland caught the
Havre steamer, she would have beaten
Miss Bly,.
It is pretty race, and the whole
world is looking ut the result. The
time Of the 23,W0 miles will probably
be seventy-three days"

Nellie Ely Around the World.

NEW YORK, Jan. 19.-General inter-
est is felt among newspaper circles, and
also outside, in the race around the
world, just being finished by Miss Bis
land, Of the Cosmopolitan Magazine,
and Nelly Bly,, ofthe New York World.
Belief is growing that, because of the
great snow blockade on the Pacific rail-
roads, Miss BLY, cannot arrive from
San Francisco before Miss Bisland
reaches here from Queenstown, from
which point she sailed to-day.
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 21.-The steamer
Oceanic arrived this morning with
Nellie Bly, aboard. A tug took her off
the steamer outside ard carried her to
Oakland, where u special train was in
waiting which took her eastward over
the Southern Pacific road to Moiave,
where change was made to the At
lantic and Pacific road
The World will say in the morning.
"Nellie BLY, is flying homeward as fast
as steam can carry her. Yesterday
morning she stepped from the steamer
Oceanic at San Francisco, after having
travelled 2l,00G miles in siXty-eight
days. without mishap and without
missing a connection. The chances are
that she will land in jersey City Sun
day next, or perhaps, before If she
accomplishes this she will have beaten
the imaginary trip OF Phineas Fogg in
Jules Eerne's Around the World in
Eighty days.
The arrival Of the Oceanic was
awaited by large gathering of people.
1he returning traveller had scarcely
time t. thank her welcomrrs before
she was hurried OFT by a special train
on the Southern Pacific. This was
permissible, inaSinucl as the snow
blockade on the Central Pacific made
the passage 10y that route Impossible,
and the wide detour and loss of time
that the change of program ueccssi-
tated, justified the deviation.
"Froin Mojave, Cal, the train will
run as Il regular over the Atlantic and
Pacific road to Albuquerque, thence
over the Atchison, Topeka and Santa
Fe to La Junta. Col. Beyond that
point the route eastward has not been
definitely decided on.n

The Columbia Register in speaking
of Presidential candidates says the one
to be successful is Cleveland, Campbell,
and the Country, and calls it the Three
C's. This name in these parts IS asso-
ciated with a railroad that was never
built. or has not been yet, though we
have often been assured that WORK
would begin in 80 days. Let Us have
Cleveland and Campbell though, lfyou
like. We believe Cleveland is stronger
with the people to-day than ever be-
fore. He is truly a peoples man be-
cause he seems TO have none OF the
politician about. He always impressed
us in his public and official acts as
doing what he conceived to be right
and his duty, honestly and sincerely
without regard to the consequences
either to himself or his party. y man
who does this will surely come out on
top in the end.
But let's no; call the combination
the Three Cs.

Jefferson Davis.

1t is said that the small and imper-
fectly prepared books purportiug to
give a history of Jefferson Davis are
having good sale. This shows the
interest taken in the subject all over
the South, and will prepare the way
for al Immense circulation for the
Memorial Volume Of jefferson Da-
WIS.," now being prepared by Rev. D..
VIM. Jones (the fighting chaplaln).
DR.. Jones was for Years the secretary
Of Southern Historical Society, and is
not only 4 scholar and popular preach
or, but Il trained writer and master of
very pleasing style. When to these
qualifications are added his long and
intimate personal acquaintance with
President Davis and his family, and
his own active personal participation
in the stirring scenes of the most im-
portant period of the life of the Presi-
dent of the Confederacy, it will be seen
at once that he is eminently fitted to
prepare such volume as this. lie is
busily engaged in the work now, and
has the cordial corporation and assist
ance of >Irs. Davis, who places much
material at his disposal. 1t is under
stood that by al arrangement with the
publishers Mrs. Davis will share in the
profits of the publicat ton, and when we
add that the book is to be brought out
by the well-known southern house Of
B. +. johnson Il Co., Richmond, Va,
it goes without saying that the book
will be in all respects tirst-class, and in
every way worthy Of the iIlustrious sub
ject. 1t is destined to have large
circulation and will be worthy oft.

4 Bogus Detective.

COLUMBIA, S. c., January 21.-Co-
lumbia has had numerous detective aG-
ventures and Colulnbians have been
treated to numerous detactive stories,
but the last and StTangesC coE1eS 1rom
Newberry and Laurens. 4 green goods
man named John James, pretending to
be chief of WilkerSon's Southern Detec-
tive Agency of Norfolk, Va, went to
Laurens and Newberry and represented
to various persons that he was a great
king Of detectives. He went to H. W.
Workman, of Laurens, and obtained a
large sum of money, in consideration
of which he was to ferret out the incen-
diary who burned Mr.. Workman's
barn. James Brown came to Columbia
yesterday and Immediately left for
parts unknown. Mr.. J. H. Chappell,
the well-known and efficient eX-chief Of
police of Newberrv, and Mr.. w. H.
Workman, of Laurens, came down this
afternoon and reported the matter to
Chief Graham, of this city. The chief
was not long in deciding what to do,
and Immediately telegraphed to Dan
vile, Va, to which place James had
purchased ticket, TO have James ar
rested at once. Mr.. Chappell will OBJ
tain the proper papers Tomorrow and
proceed directly to Danville for the
prisoner. The chief has also taken the
precaution to telegraph to a number of
other places, giving a minute descrip-
tion Of James, who is represented as
being a tall, handsome man, with blue
eyes and long red mustache, and
with the appearance of one who owns
the world with a fence around it.
James owes one or two bills at the
Hotel jerome in this city. Theameteur
detective act is not very renumerative
in South Caroline, especially at Column
bia, and James will probably be sorry
he everleft home Before he gets through
with this little escapade.

I've fulfilled, and requesting as an owl
tieurc of good faith that transportation

avoid being duped he has written t"
the authorities at Atlanta asking them
to make proper inquiries rs t" the ad-
vrrtisemcut and the probability oi the
offer being made good.
Mr.. lambert is 9S years o. aye and
WAS born in Burwash, England lie
has resided in America five years and

attention in this city, owing to the
peculiar ideas he advances as to the
best meaHs of solving the present race
problem.
Mr.. Lambert advocates the intcrmar-
ria@e of the Caucasian and negro races,
and holds that by this means the negro
race will in the course of 4 few genera
tions become extinct, the fruit Of the
first inter-niarriagc being mulattoes,

THE NEGRO QUESTION.

That there is a negro question, or
race question, and that there has been
such question for a long time, and
will continue to be such question in
this country for long time to come, in
fact as long as the two races live together
under the same government, seems to
be little doubted.
The proper plan of dealing with this
question is now agitating the public
mind to considerable extent. There
is diversity of opinion on the subject.
Some persons take the position that
the proper and best solution Of the mat
ter is to let it alone and it will solve
itself.
Others take the position that the best
plan and only solution Of the question
isa separation of the races, and the
only way to accomplish this, is for the
negro to emigrate.
Two races differing rs widely as the
blacks and whites do, can hardly live
peaceably under the same government,
at the same time in the full and free en-
joyment of the same rights and
privileges.
It is big question and must receive
attention sooner or later.
Senator NJ. c. Butler has introduced
q bill into the United States Senate
appropriating S5,O0O,000 to assist the
negro to emigrate from the Southern
States, and urges their colonization, or
that they be sent to Africa. Senator
Butler delivered a fine speech in sup
port af his measure. He thinks that
>Ssibly they would illumine the dark
continent, and through them it might
be civilized and christianiZed. That it
would not only be better for the white
man, but better for the negro, if each
race could have its own country, can
hardly be questioned.
The races are entirely dissimilar and
can never assimilate. No doubt it
would be better for both if they could
be separate-better in the end. 1t is
not proposed, neither is it desirable,
that this deportation should take place
at once, but gradually.
We believe that that is the only
proper and efficient solution of this
question. Let them go of their own
accord. It will take long time, but
it will gradually solve the problem
Some who object to this plan think it
will remove the best labor we ever had,
and that our lands will become idle
and valueless. The negro is q good
laborer when kept under control. But
the land will be worked and the
country will prosper, when he is gone.
It is a question that we cannot let
alone. 1t will not down at our bidding.

BOLD DASH FOR FREEDOM.
Two Convic,s Tire of the Confinement of
Prison walls-One Killed in his Rash
Attempt and One Escapes Badly
Wounded.
From the Sundays News.


COLUMBIA, January lS.-Two white
convicts at work Oh the Columbia
Canal, Richard Gardiner, convicted Of
larceny of live stock in two cases ut
the March term, 1889, for Lancaster
County, and sentenced tn ten years
imprisonment, and William :. jack
son, convicted of riot and assault, etc,
in TWO cases at the September term,
1889. for Chesterfield County, and
sentenced to eight years imprisonment,
attempted to escape this morning At
about half-past o'clock. They were
working lust above the check dam,
near the track CT the Columbia and
Greenville Railroad, about mile above
Elmwood avenue, when they suddenly
threw down their tools and started up
the railroad bank towards the woods
on the other side. They were COM
pelled to pass between two OF the
guards, who commenced firing OH them
as soon as possible. Gardiner was shot
down and instantly killed, about Sc
ventv-fve yards fIom where he started,
and jackson was evidently hit by one
of the shots, as he fell aud scrambled
along for some distance on bis hands
and knees, but succeeded in regainlng
his feet and getting away. The guards
are still pursuing him.
Gardiner was convicted of stealing
horses in Lancaster County and selling
them in New Brookland, just across
the river from Columbia. He was a
desperate fellow and has made several
plans TO escape. On last Thursday
Capt. Sigh, who is in charge of the
! work, was informed by d convict that
Gardiner and three others, two white
and one colored, had made up their
minds to run past the guards, where
upon he called him up, told him that
he knew of the plot snd cautioned him
not to attempt it, as the guards had
been notified to keep sharp lookout
for him and would certainly kill him.
He denied it bitterly, but the sequel to-
day proves his insincerity. Both Gard
iner and Jackson were shackled, but
had broken the chain before they
started.
The coroner's jury returned 4 verdict
that the convict had come to his death
from wounds inflicted by a guard in
the discharge of his duty. The one who
escaped has rot yet been recaptured.
