A wIFE's SUICIDE.
Monday afternoon Ybor City was thrown
into state of excitement by the suicide of
young married woman, the wife of a Mr.
Harding. The woman was whipped that
day and the day before by her husband,
and to drown her troubles took dose of
laudanum with fatal effect Indignation
ran high and the inhuman cruelty of the
husband was discussed freely by knots of
Cubaus on the street corners. Mob indica-
lions died away as the shades of evening
came on. Harding is in jail
PHOSPHATE DEPOSITS.
There are two or three localities in Hills
borough county, not far from Tampa, con-
tanning large deposits of phosphate, and on
account of the superior transportation ad-
vantages here, several capitalists are pros
pecting Tampa for fertilizer factory sites.
One strong English concern is satisfied with
Tanpa's transportation advantages and
with the abundance of handy raw materials.
and are determined on locating an immense
fertilizer factory here. The phosphate bus
mess bids fair to play big part in the de-
velopment of Tampa and all the surround
ing country.

MILWAUKEE. WIS, April 2.-Municipal
and township elections were held generally
yesterday throughout the state. The new
election law, modified form of the Aus
tralian system. gave satisfaction.
In GAINESVILLE the republican candidate for
mayor was Endorsed by the democrats. The
council is a tie politically. The friends of
license carried the day.
The democrats carried Eau Claire, and
license secured a majority.
AT Racine the issue was the saloon ques-
ton, and the contest was heated The
liquor men carried the day.
The republicans in Milwaukee aud
throughout Wisconsin are paralyzed to-day
at the sweeping victory of the democrats
in the metropolis of the state. The result
is laid to the bitter fighS made by the Cath
Ole priests and Lutheran ministers against
the Bennett compulsory education law The
situation is one of great moment to the Re-
publican party in Wisconsin and many of
the leader predict defeat next November if
the fight is to be on the same line as thu of
yesterday.
THE DEFEAT EXPECTED.
The EcentRg Wisconsin, to-day SAYS:
The defeat OF the republican city ticket was
not unexpected. BY most politicians it was
deemed a foregone conclusion because the re-
full combination in which there were three great
factors, first, the Democratic party; second the
Roman Catholic church; and third the Lutheran
church. These three factors were united for
one common object, to vote only for candidates
who would commit themselves to repeal OF the
Bennett law.
We take it to be the firm determination of the
republicans of the state that they win not re-
peal tie Bennett school law as a whole but
will consent TO modify or amend its provisions
so that it will be less distasteful to the two
churches But its repeal will not be thought
Of The sentiment of the country is a sainst it,
and that sentiment will keep the compulsory
English education law on the statute books
But as the combination demands that the law
shall be entirely repealed the republicans must
choose a standard bearer for governor next
November who wiz meet the onset and win
over this powerful combination. The republi-
cans, when in convention assembled, will con
slider it alike duty and necessity to select
the most influential and most popular repubIi-
can in the party, and that man is j. c. Spooner,
now United States senator. He can defeat all
the hosts of this combination and at the same
time sustain the patriotic educational sentiment
of the state.

The Delta independent., 1890-02-04

This startling command was uttered
In q moment when the -bravest hearts
quailed, and, moreover 1t was the
command Of Capt. Jack Mullen, OF the
Twelfth Regiment, OF Connecticut in.
fantry Volunteers. It was uttered
when bullets rained Upon the Captains
little brigade and his men fell like
blades OF grass before the scythe.
There was no time for eloquent para
phrasing or for rhetoric or delicate
diction. Forcible language was what
the emergency demanded. The Fed
eral forces at Cedar Creek had faltered
and then began to retreat in dismay
under the murderous fire Of the oppos-
ing forces.
Capt Mullen. q staf officer and .
mere boy scarcely twenty years Of age,
was placed in charge OF the only
brigade available. He was ordered to
the front to stem the tide. He gave
the command to charge, and when
older men saw him, q mere youth.
riding to the front, they gave cheer
and dashed down upon the impenetra-
BILE phalanx that confronted them. It.
was q terrible carnage. The little
brigade obeyed the command with in-
domitable courage. but the odds were
too much, and the Captain saw his
men wavering. They seemed inclined
70 join other brigades and to desert
their colors. It was then that he
yelled this command which emphasizes
the badge presented to him by the few
who survived that awful struggle. In
it the brigade was completely sur
rounded, but Capt Mullen would not
capitulate; nor would he forsake the
stars and stripes. and by desperate
fighting the colors were returned to a
place OF safety In the Union camp.
But the boys in blue had to fight their
way out, and OF that brigade there was
only meager battalion left to tell the
tale Of the horrible slaughter.
