Only a few brief days and there will be a

ranges Of mountains which ridge this con-
tinent-a table reaching from the Atlantic

East and the West and the North and the
South, aud sit at it. Oa it will be smoking
the products of all )apds-b:rds of every
aviary, cattle from every pasture, fish from
every lake, feathered spoils from every
farm. The fruit baskets will bend down
under the products plucked fron the peach
fields of New Jersey, the apple orchards of
western New York, the orange groves of
Florida. tho vineyards of Ohio and the cuts
threshed from New England woods. The
bread will be white from the wheat fields
of Ilinois and Michigan, the banqueters
will be adorned With California gold, and
the table will be a-gleam with Nevada sill
yer, and the feast will be warmed with the
fire grales heaped up with Pennsylvania
coal. The halls will be spread with carpets
from the Lowell mills, and when darkness
comes with its heavy draperies, the lights
will fash from bronzed brackets of Philad-

A REWARD FOR BRAVERY.

George, poor old Mrs. Hagg has just

away.
All right, mother, I'll see if can find

satchel over his shoulder, George ran out
of the cottage door and was soon fastening
along the dusty road toward the village,

she must be vory dull, living as she does

The Marder Of Bad Mccoy.
PARTICULAR OF THE KILLING OF THE MAN
WHO HAD KILLED EIGHT MEN.


WHO HAD KILLED EIGHT MEN.
Especial Dispatch to the Baltimore SUM- j..
CHARLESTON, WA, Nov. 19.-SsverAi
days ago it was announced in these dispatch-
es that Bud Mccoy, ons Of the most notor-
GUS of the Mccoy faction in the famous
Hatfield Mccoy fend, had been murdered.
The particulars have at last been received,
and are about as follows: Ga Thursday af-
ternoon OF October 80, as Bud Mccoy was
leaving the house of John Josin, on Ps.er's
creek, Pike county, KY. where he had eat
en- dinner, he passed Bill Dyre and Pies
Mccoy. As soon as his back was turned
the pair fred on him. At the shot Bud fell
from his horse dead. Several more shots
were fired into bis PROSTATE body, and his
head beaten 10 q jelly with stone. After
committing this fearful crime the murderers
lied. A pursuing party was quickly made
up, aud the chase began. Ga branch of
Knox creek, in Buchanan county, Virginia,
the pair were oyertakeD, and short fight
ensued. Pies Mccoy received slight flesh
wound on the cheek and surrendered. Dyre
dropped his rifle and fed, and has not as yet
been apprehended. A reward of $3.50 has
been offered for his capture. There are sew
eral stories af1oat as to the origin of the kill
ing, The one most believed is that some
years since Bud McCcy ran away with
sister of one Aaron Smith and then deserted
her. She afterwards became the wife of
Bill Dyre. He was acquainted with her
past, but never forgave Bud. Smith was an
exjail bird, having escaped from the Pike
county Jail last summer. Bud Mccoy, be.
ing deputy sheriff, attempted his capture
several times. This fact, with the past,
embittered Smith against Mccoy, and it is
alleged that he hired Pies McCov ami Rill
Dgre to do the bloody work. Smith is now
in Jail, charged with being an accessory to
the crime. Pies Mccoy, who is not over
sixteen years of age, confessed after being
arrested that Smith had promised him q |
Winchester rifle and revolver if he would |
fire the first shot. The murdered man was |
a cousin of Pies Mccoy, brother-in-law of |
Dyre, and is said to have killed eight men |
during his life.

IT STRIKES AT THE SICK.-That the Nc

olies, strikes at the sick is shown in its
treatment of medicines. If the lymph dis
covered by Prof. Koch for the cure of con-
sumption is imported in this country it's al
ready high Price will be enhanced, as the
Mckinley tariff imposes duty of 25 per
