A Scared Bridegroom.

People at Trenton, n. j., are talk
ING about matter that has all the
elements Of a successful farce comedy.
Last Saturday Peter Finiski and Mary
Epswick went from Trenton to Camden
to be married, and after the ceremony
returned to saloon kept by Mrs. Liz
zie Purcell, where Mary lived as a SER
want and where a wedding reception was
to be held.
For months previous to the wedding
Finiski and Charles Kepwotski had been
making love with Mary, each with equal
chances of success apparently, until one
night when Einiskl, on his return from
the rolling-mill, exhibited a big roll of
bills. That roll Of money secured for him
the hears and hand Of Mary. 1t also OBJ
tanned household goods, paid months
rent in advance and bought ring; in
fact, it made Peter and Mary happy. It
also made Kepwotski angry. The latter
appeared at the wedding Festivities last
Sunday night and threatened to kill Fin
lski. But Peter did not wait for the slaugh-
ter. He left word for his bride that he
would return soon and then he hustled
out of a back way and lett the city. Now
Mrs. Flniski is angry and says that her
husband is coward and that she won't
live with him if he comes back. She has
also sold the household outfit back to
the furniture dealers, and she smiles so
pleasantly on Kepwotsk nowadays that
it IS predicted she may soon change her
name again.

They Cannot Ra naueht.

The Washington correspondent of The
Macon Telegraph declears that President
Harrison and Speaker Reed ere looking
with the greatest comfort upon the Far
mers' Alliance movement in the South,
and are encouraging the Alliance leaders
a good deal. This correspondent states
Furthermore that the Republicans have
decided that wherever the Alliance
movement is found to benefit the Repub-
lican party Alliancemen shall have the
local Offices In dozens of counties in
South Carolina every postmaster recent
ly appointed by Harrison is a member
of this organization. This scheme won't
work in South Carolina, and President
Harrison and Speaker Reed will soon
find it out. AS the Augusta Chronicle
says .the farmers of Georgia and South
Carolina are Democrats, and cannot be
won over by postotlices or government
positions. Democrats in the Seuth are
differing among themselves, out in the
face of the fccce bill and the sectional
legislation Of the Reed-Harrison party
the Democrats will never divide and let
in a Trojan horse. The farmers are the
backbone of the Democratic party in
these states. They mag be misled
at times, but they always get right, and
they never afterwards trust the men who
deceived them. We look with interest
at the distribution of the postoffices
among Alliancemen. Southern farmers
are not made of the treacherous stuff
that the eed-Harrison combine seems
to believe them to be-"

SONG OF THE CANDIDATES..
Father who travels the roads So 1ate?"
Hush nv child It's the candidate,

Father who travels the roads So late?'
Hush my child! It's the candidate,
Fit example Of human woes
Early comes and late he goes;
he greets the women with courtly grace,
He kisses the baby's dirty face,
He calls to the feRce the farmers at work,
BE bores the merchant, he bores the clerk,
The blacksmith, while his anvil rings,
He greet, and this is the song he sings:
'sBowdy, howdy, howdy Go?
How is your wife, and how are you?
All! it fits my fist as no other can,
The horny hand Of the forming man.
Husband, who is that man at the gate
'sHush, my love! tls the candidate"
Husband, why can't he work Ike you?
Has he nothing at home to do?
My dear, whenever man IS down,
No cash at home, no money in town,
Too stupid to preach, too proud to beg,
Too timid to rob, too lazy to dig,
Then over his horse his legs he filings,
And to the dear people this song he sings:
Howdy, howdy, howdy do?
how is your wife, and how are you?
All! it fits my fist as no other can,
The horny hand of the working man
Brother who labors early and late,
ask these things of the candidate
What's his record? How does he stand
At home? No matter about his hand,
Be it hard or soft, so be it prone
To close over money not his own.
Has he in view no thieylng plan?
Is he honest or capable?-is he our man?
Cheer such man till the welkin rings,
Join in the chorus when thus he sings;
'Howdy, howdy, howdy do?
How is your wife, and how are you?
All! it fits my fist as no other can,
The horny hand of the farming man.

Why Not End It2

Why not end the political excitement
in the State at once by nominating can
didates for the State officers at the Con-
vention to be held on the 18th of Au-
gust? In the language of the Rock
Hill Herald what is the use of waiting
until September, when it must be clear
to even the most rabid opposer of Capt.
Tillman that there is no hope for any
other outcome of the struggle for the
gubernatorial Office than the endorse
ment of the suggestion by the Farmers
Convention? What is the sense of con-
tinuing the strife and turmoil until
September just to suit a few irrecon-
cilables who will not be satisfied with
the nomination of TilIman by scv
method and would perhaps vote against
him under any circumstances? 1t is
conceded by both factions that he will
be the next Governor of this State, and
for our part we are in favor of his be-
ing made the nominee of the Democrat
ic party for that Office and full State
ticket chosen at the August ConTen-
ton, and in order to pave the way for
that result we think the State Execu-
tive Committee should rescind the call
for the September Convention, and thus
Ieavethe August convention free to act
and finish the whole business at once"

Shot Him Through a Horse.

News comes from Adams Run, in
ColIeton County, Of a shooting affray
which occurred there on last Saturday
morning under somewhat peculiar and
amusing circumstances. A North Car
Gilman named Williams, who has been
engaged in the turpentine business in
that section for some time, was trans
acting some business with a negro who
had been imbibing rather too freely of
a mean quality of red liquor. The
white man and the darkey could not
agree on some point in bargain, and
the bibulous Afro-American grew
rather boisterous and abusive. The
Tar Heel was not accustomed to this
sort of behavior, and proceeded to
chastise the offending darkey with a
fusilade of bullets from revolver which
he deftly extracted from his hip pocket.
The negro had no idea that his oppo-
nent was going to drive his pointin so
emphatic a manner, and sought refuge
behind his horse. But this did not stay
the anger of the infuriated North Caro-
linian, who fired at the terrified darkey
through the horse and all. The bullet,
which was from a large pistol pene-
trated entirely through the animals
body, killing it instantly, and coming
out on the other side. wounded the ne
gro. At this juncture the combatants,
or rather the North Carolinian, was
stopped and the affray was ended

The Cornsa Trnst 4 pain.

After lapse of about two years the
facts in the gigantic insurance swindle
in Charleston, known at the time as the
corpse trust" interest has been revived
by the eXteation Of executive clemency
to Tom Bond, who was convicted of
conspiracy to commit fraud and forg-
cry in June 1888, in Charleston, and SEN
fenced by Judge Norton to three years
in the penitentiary. The Governor
pardoned him yesterday, and thus
about the only surviving member of
the famous gang is free man once
more. The Governor gives as his rea-
sons for granting the pardon below:
''l,he petition on which the pardon is
based is a remarkably strong one in the
prisoners behalf, the superintendent
presented g strong endorsement for
good conduct and attention to duty
during confinement, the Board Of Dl-
rectors recommended the granting Of
the pardon. and some weight was at
tached to tho precarious and weak con-
dition of his young wife, whose intiu-
ence, it is hoped, will lead Tom to bet
ter WayS."- Columbia Record.

TWO TRAGEDIES.
ONE AT AUGUSTA AND ONE NEAR
CHARLESTON.

Two Men Meet on the Street and Ex-
change Shots-One Killed and the Other
Wounded-The Cause Of the Difficulty.
AUGUSTA. Ga. Aug. 2.-Mr. L. H.
Patillo, travelling correspondent of the
Augusta Chronicle, shot and killed Mr..
Charles p. Hutson on the street to-
night. The two gentlemen met about
II o'clock in front of the Hawthorn sa-
loon in Broad street, three doors above
Jackson. There are no witnesses to the
homicide. About six shoots were fired.
Mr.. Patillo received one bullet from
Hutson's pistol in the right thigh. Pol
iceman Baston caught Hutson as he was
falling, attempting to fire another shot,
but he was too weak to pull the trigger.
AS Hutson was gently laid on the
ground he turned over and died.
Both men fired five shots and only one
from each pistol took effect. One Of
Hudson's fingers was broken, and this
may be the effect of another of Patillo'S
bullets. Patillo was standing near the
wall of the Hawthorn restaurant, and
the sidewalk has been crowded all day
with curious people looking at the
marks made in the wall and window by
the four bullets which missed Pattlllo.
Hudson was out near the curb when be
fell, and a great pool of blood marked
the spot where he died. Both men were
near each other. and the dead mans face
and hands were burned by the powder
from his antagonists pistol. Hudson
lived for few minutes after the shoot
ing, but was unconcious. Patillo is
receiving every possible attention at the
Arlington Hotel.
The cause Of the tradegy is the subject
on everybod's tongue to day. Of course
there is a woman in the case.
It is shocking to drag woman's name
into such affairs as these men have
done, but it is generally understood that
this is the origin of the difficulty. And,
strange to say, the killing was not in
defence OF Woman's reputation, but
simply the result of seemingly insane
jealousy. Mr.. Patillo was married a
few years ago to Miss Ella Hall, a beau
tiful girl of Warren County, but they
were divorced after few months Of
unhappy and uncongenial married life.
She had even resumed her maiden name,
and was to all intents and purposes free
and so deemed herself. 1t seems, how
ever, that Patillo madly loved her and
declared time and again that he would
kill any man who paid her attention.
It is said he has made these threats to
several young men who met and went
out with his former wife, and it is sup
posed that he had sent similar mes
sage to young Hudson, who met the
lady here in Augusta about three
month ago. Both young men have a
host of friend here, and the deepest re-
grets are expressed at the sad occur
renee.

GROWTH or. THE CHURCH.
Strength of the Different Denominations
in the limited States.


The Independent has gathered some
valuable and interesting statistics
showing the strength of the various
| Christian Churches in the United States
and their growth during the past year.
In some cases the figures are estimates,
but our contemporary believes that on
the whole the results "Yery closely ap-
DroXimate the truth"
From these it appears that there are
in the United States Isl, ,26l churches
! of all denominations, 1O3, 300 ministers
and nearly 22.0OO.OOO members. Dur
ing the year there has been an increase
of $500 churches, nearly 1900 ministers
and nearly 100000 members.
The most numerous denomination is
the Roman Catholic, with its $500
churches, $500 priests, etc., and s, 1000
population, of whom 4,676,OOO are esti-
mated to be communicates.
Then come the Methodists, with, in
round numbers. 4,9SCOOO communi-
cants; Baptists, 1892 900; Presbyterians,
1,229,0OO; Lutherans, LOSE, 900; Congre-
gationalistS, 49,, 900, and Episcopalians,
$4,000.
The increase in the Catholic popula-
tion during the year was 42l,70O. The
estimated gain in Catholic communi-
cants was over 2S9,0OO.
The growth of Protestants member
ship was 66S,OOO. The Methodist gain
ed more than 256,0O0O. the Baptists more
than $4,000, the Lutherans $4,000, the
Presbyterians nearly $4,000, the Con-
gregationalists more than 5000. and
the Episcopallans about $500.
The accession Of new members was
even larger than these figures, since in
every denomination there were deaths
of members whose places were filled by
new acquisitions. The number of
deaths in the Methodist Episcopal
body. for example, was reported at
28,3OO.
This is highly satisfactory and en-
couraging showing to all who have the
welfare of the church at heart. A gain
of nearly eleven hundred thousand in
membership in one year, with a CORES
ponding increase in the number of
churches and ministers, indicates that
Christianity is marching on with no un-
certain stride. AS our contemporary
well says, "It is in itself most over
whelming refutation of the assertions
we hear now and then from various
quarters that Christianity is losing its
hold upon our people, and that our
churches are declining."-New York
Sun.

The Other TRAGEDY,

Between and 5 o'clock on Sunday
morning w H. Ahrens was killed by
T. D. Green in the house of the latter
at Ten Mile Hill, 5. G., near Charles
ton.
Ahrens has for some time been mixed
up in the affairs of Green and his wife,
causing jealousy on the part Of Green
that resulted in separation of the man
and wife. Since the separation Ahrens
has returned to visit Mrs. Green, which
caused gossipy tongues to Wag. Green
says he was Informed of these reports
and determined to see for himself if
they were we'll founded.
He says he went to his wife's house
on Saturday night about II o'clock and
saw through the blinds his wife and
Ahrens sitting side by side drinking
and talking like man and wife. He re-
strained his impulse to enter and went
away. Returning in the early morning
he forced an entrance into the house
and found Anrens and his wife in bed
together. He says: "My wife screamed
and walked Ahrens, who had a pistol
under his pillow and one on mantel-
piece, but I had the drop on him and
fired first" Green went to Charleston
on the first train and surrendered.
Mrs. Green's story is that having her
store robbed only recently, she was
afraid of burglars-her son being in
Charleston-and asked Ahrens to stay
until he returned, at II o'clock.
Ahrens at first declined, for fear of
giving offence to Green, but she insis-
ted and he complied, but declined to 60
to bed saying he would sit up and guard
the premises. She retired to her room
but did not undress, being uneasy. To
reporter for the News and Courier,
Mrs. Green said:
| was awakened between and 5 when
surely heard someone breaking into
the window on the second floor. ran
down stairs and cried out, Mr.. Ahrens,
someone is breaking in the up stairs
window: Ahrens appeard to be
soundly sleeping end did not seem to
hear me- Waking up he looked dazed
and reched for his pistol from the man
telpiece. By this time I saw that the
man behind me was Mr.. T. D. Green,
and he was right behind me on the steps.
Before Ahrens could get his pistol he
was shot at by Mr.. Green from the
steps. The first must have killed him,
for he fell after it and seemed to die
almost Immediately. I will tell you
honestly, he had never seen or heard
anything that would make him believe
me unfathful to him. I consider Mr..
Ahrens's killing willful murder 1t
was done without cause.
Ahrens' body was found upon the
floor of the room in his night clothes,
and was covered with blood-stained
sheet, which Mrs. Green claims her
husband placed over him.
Mrs. Green is a woman Of striking
appearance, we'll developed, with hand
some black eyes and hair, and appear
emily well educated. Her maiden name
was Miss Alice Shirer. She married a
Mr.. Appler, and after his death was
welded to Mr.. Green. She owns the
store at Ten-Mile Hill aud Is said to
control about $4,000 worth of phos-
phate lands.

Wonderful Vitality.

GREENSBORO. n. c., Aug. 6.-At 4
o'clock yesterday morning negro
named Scholield Grant, alias Merritt,
was killed on the Richmond and Dan
vile track in the southern part of this
city. He stepped off the main line out
of the way of a train on a side track
directly in front of a backing engine.
He was knocked down and run over.
His body was cut almost completely in
two at the waist, only shred of muscle
holding the two parts together. The
wheels of two cars and tender passed
over, yet when the train stopped he
told the hands how to take him out.
He was laid on skid and lived and talk
ed calmly of his injuries for an hour
or more. Occasionally he would glance
at the parts of his body lying around.
The first of his relatives to reach him
was his aged grandmother, who drop
ped dead after looking upon his injGr-

DICTATOR REED.
An Indignant Democrat Gives H i'm
Rasping.


Rasping.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-The House
resumed the consideration of the Senate
amendments to the sundry civil appro-
priation bill, the question being on non
concurring in the Senate amendment
appropriating $4,000 for light house
near Maryland Point, Potomac River.
Mr.. Rogers, of Arkansas, rose, and, be-
ing recognized by the Speaker, said that
he wished to submit a few remarks.
Mr.. Cannon made the point that de-
bate was not in order.
The Speaker was at first inclined to
sustain this point, but, after debate, in
order to save time, he recognized Mr..
Cannon to move the previous question.
Against this Mr.. Rogers protested,
saying this was the second time the
Speaker, after having recognized him,
had summarily taken him off the floor.
The Speaker thought that he had
always treated the gentleman with po-
liteness and respect. The Chair had not
recognized the gentleman for debate
When the gentleman rose of course the
Oll1ll COll1ll llOI GCll NlltU lC lOoS 1Ol
until he stated it.
Mr.. Rogers suggested that when no
oneWas occupying the floor and gentle
man rose and was recognized it was none
Of the Chairs business what he was re-
cognized for.
The Speaker: "The Chair respectfully
states that it is the Chairs business as
Speaker Of the House"
Mr.. Rogers: 'The Chair arrogates that
right"
The Speaker: "The Chair arrogates
nothing The Chair acts as Speaker of
the House. He has always endeavored
to act towards the gentleman with entire
fairness and respect.
Mr.. Rogers: tits difference of opin-
ion"
The Speaker: ut is difference of
opionion which this House can and does
base it's judgment on"
Mr. Rogers::"I have no doubt about
that, and I have no doubt what the YER
dict is"
The Speaker: II have not either
Mr.. Rogers remarked: THAT was one
point on which the Speaker and he
agreed"
The previous question was ordered on
non-concurring in the Senate amend
ment. No quorum voted and the House
adjourned.
