WADE HAMPTON INsULTED.
HOodlums in South Carolina Nearly
Break Him up In His Speech.

At Aiken. S. c., on Friday Senator
Wade Hampton, at the request of
the State Democratic executive COM
mittee, addressed a large political
meeting in opposition TO the Tillman
movement and in the interest of uni
ty in the party. The Tillman side
were in the majority, and they
almost howled the old war-horse off
the stand. He was so frequently in
terrupted by questions and cheers for
Tillman that he could not deliver a
connected speech. He was told to go
back TO Washington and not to med
die with State affairs.
Fourteen years ago Hampton led
forlorn hope in Aiken to victory.
Yesterday, as the guest of the coun-
- sts.s openly insulted by a hun
dred men. Tillman was unable to
control his followers. The leaders
on both sides are disgusted. The
condition ofaffairs and the bitterness
of feeling in the State can hardly be
imagined by an outsider.

The work Of Louisiana Mob "A Das-
tardly Outrage None OF the MUIR
dererS Apprehended.

New ORLEANS, June 29.-The alarm
ing reports that have been in circula-
tion for some time at Amite, La,
that the misled colored people of
that place We're procuring arms and
ammunition from many quarters to
use against the white people in arace
conflict, were not groundless, it hap
pens, and the white people some time
since prepared themselves on "a war
footing.
The Picayme on the 25th cont ain
ed accounts of an attack made by
Negroes upon a committee of white
men who had been commissioned to
interview two white men who were
charged with living on terms of So
cial equality with the colored popula-
tion OF that parish, and who, intiuenc-
ed by bad advice, had struck for I'M
reasonably high wages.
About z o'clock Saturday morning
several gunshots were heard about
mile above the town. George How
ard, the most desperate Negro in the
parish. came in later, wounded in the
arm with Winchester ball, and re-
ported that he had been intercepted
on his way to work by an armed
posse of white men and shot.
Within five minutes after Howard
arrived, there was a simultaneous
charge into the town from every
road, of armed men on horseback,
numbering about 200. The greater
part were disguised. They surround
ed the important square of the town,
threw out their pickets, and asked
the whereabouts of Henry Daniels,
Zack Taylor, Dug Lillis, and George
Howard.
Armed posses of ten or fifteen were
sent at once in search of them. How
ard was found in Tom Sewell's gar
den. He refused to surrender and
Was killed. Two of the horses of the
party were wounded from shots from
the garden at the time of the shoot.
ing, yet Howard had no guns, so fan
as can be learned.
Two other Negroes, Jake Ransom
and Tod Flanders, were wounded al
the same time in the garden. Dug
Lills was found, and he, with two
other bad Negroes, was taken to the
outskirts of the corporation, whip
ped and ordered to leave. Armed
squads were then sent out and cap
tured the arms of the suspicious col
ored people Eighteen or twenty
double-b barrel guns, two Winchestel
rifles, and number of pistols wer,
taken. The armed crowd then dis
lpersed.
The repeated threats on the par
of the Negroes against the whites
the firing upon the committee, ant
the cruel beating of a white child b,
a Negro man a few weeks ago, an,
their making arsenals of their homes
so incensed the whites that the,
concluded that they would bear it M
longer, but would meet the issue a
they did. Everything is quiet now.

Justice Crutchasld,s Proclamation.

Police Justice Crutchfield has or
dered the women to stay away
from the wooden hobby horses, or
rather "the merry-go-round. The Of
ficers have been instructed to arrest
all women caught at this place.
The hobby horses are located in
the neighborhood of the Old Mar
ket. During the stay there, there
has been one cutting scrape, one
shooting scrape, one man beaten
by a mob, and the escape of a party
charged with felony In addition
to this, numerous other disorders
have taken place.
This is a move in the right direc.
tion and is thoroughly in line with
the old maxim: can Ounce of Pre-
vention is Worth a Pound ol

Ventilation as Preventive of Explosions.
 The excellent results attained by Pro lessor Barrett, the electrician of tho electrical department of the city of Chi caeo, in the prevention of explosions in the subways of that city by the adoption of a system of thorough ventilation have been commended by New York paper to the board of electrical control, which from time to time has been much exercised with the frequent explosions that have taken place in the subways on Broadway and elsewhere.
 It is shown that the ventilation of ths down town subways through the city hall chimney is perfect, and that the electric light posts furnish sufficient ventilation at other points It is also urged that the city of New York can derive much benefit by taking heed to the example of Chicago, which has or dered the electric light, telephone and telegraph companies to ventilate their subways in order to prevent explosions.
