AM NINE wEnE LYNonEp.


by II MUb IL Confirmed.
ST. LOUIS, Oct. Ia dispatch from
Helena, Ark, has this to say in regard
to the lynching OF tho nine riotcns col.
ored cotton pickcrs:
deputies Frank Mills and Jesse
Hodges, who have been with Sheriff
Derrick tho last three days in pursuit
OF the rioters arrived in this city yestcr-
day and report rs follows: Wednesday
afternoon they succeeded In locating
thirteen OF tho worst Of the rioting nc
grocs in n cane brake near Cat Island.
Tho negroes had been trying to work
their way towards President Island and
row on to Memphis. Tho negroes I'M
swered by 4 volley OF shots and made n
dash to escape. Two were killed, two
escaped and nine were captured. These
nine were disarmcd and given in charge
OF Deputies Mills and Hodges, who
started with them to Mariana, the
county seat.
a few miles back OF Hacklcy landing
the deputies found themselves and
prisoners surrounded by Il crowd OF
masked men, mounted and armed.
They demanded the prisoners. The
deputies cxpostulated with them and
begged that they be not deferred from
peaceful discharge Of their duty, which
was to land the prisoners in Jail to be
dealt with by law. The masked party
were determined, however, rs they
outnumbcred the deputies twenty-five
TO ono, and took charge OF tho nine
prisoners, marched them into Il thicket
and hung them until they were dead.
The same party must have met the
steamer James Lee at l~Iackley landing
and captured the wounded man re-
ferrcd to. From these accounts it ap-
pears that only one man escaped out OF
the thirteen who had taken refuge in
the cane brake, two having been killed
by the sheritT's posse and ten by tho
masked mob. The negroes were most
ly, it is thought, from Memphis, though
several were killed who lived in the Vi
cinity OF Cat Island.

BRIDGEPORT,
Current News Items from tho old Town
ncrOss the River.

ncross the River.
The electric car company is making
preparations to lay its track from the
new back river bridge through Etna-
vile, to connect with that already
laid in Martins Ferry. 1t will be re-
mcmbered that there was considerable
trouble last spring Oh account Of Il gang
OF workmen tearing up the street along
the proposed route. As n consequence
the company enjoined the officers from
interfering with their workmcn.
The stone work on the new reservoir
is progressing very well. The COLI
tractors have walled up about two
thirds OF the sides. When this is COM
pleted a concrete bottom will be put in
and Il brick arch turned over the entire
basin. The arch will be covered with
dirt and grass sowed on it, thus sccur-
ing the water against anything gcttirg
into it from any source except through
the pumps.
The c., l.. & W. Company will add
several more long side tracks to their
yards this fall. The company is filling
in slowly toward the creek and it is q
question OF n few years until the. entire
bottom will be filled and occupied as a
freight yard.
The large addition to the Etna mill,
which has been under construction for
six months is nearing completion, and
is expected to be In operation i'll thirty
days.
Wheeling creek has dried up until
there is but n very little water in the
bed. Old residents say they have never
before seen the stream SO small.
The Standard Iron Company is doub-
ling the capacity Of the galvaniziug de-
partment. The addition will be COM
plcted in q short time.
The new bank building is rapidly
nearing completion. 1t is expected to
have the bank in operation within the
next three weeks.
The lEtna Company has its electric
system in full operation and it lights
the entire plant in q most satisfactory
manner.
Building seems to be the craze in
T;tnaville, and several houses are in
course OF erection.
W. F. Graham, OF the Standard mill,
is out OF town in tho interests OF his
company.
Frank Davis has resigned his position
with the Etna Iron Company.

The Collegiate A1umnm,

The collegiate alumn@ have now over
1,2OO members, and are winning posi-
tion of influence as the organized body
of women college graduates of the coun-
try. Fifteen colleges are represented in
the association, Bryn Mawr having Just
been admitted to fellowship. There is
some i'll feeling among graduates of col
lege not received over the strictness
OF the alumne rules. Mrs. Cleveland
once refused to attend a meeting because
Wells college was not recognized, but
this winter nineteen different institu-
tons have been rejected. The alumna
are bent on winning respect for degrees
given to women, and admit within their
pale only colleges which come up to a
high scholastic standard. This is prob
ably wise, but in many quarters it makes
the college women unpopular.-New
York Commercial Advertiser.

The explosion in Mammoth mine No.
IN the cake regions about Connellsville
Pennsylvania, was an appalling disaster.
One hundred and fifty-one miners are
known to have been killed, and one
hundred and thirty bodies had been
recovered up to noon yesterday. 1t is
impossible to account for the explosion
as there was no gas in the mine and
every precaution that science could sug-
gest had been taken. The generally
accepted theory is that a strong vein of
gas must have been tapped, the existence
OF which had not been suspected, and
could not be foreseen.

WE MUST HA We IT.

Some peculiar objections have been
raised to the proposition to build port
age railroad at the Cascades. One obiec-
tion says, "It would not be showing
proper respect to our delegation in con-
gress." Another that it would offend
Senator Mitchell, another that it would
interfere with Senator Dolph's and Con-
gresham Hermann's plans, still another
that if the state did anything the general
government would think we were able
to help ourselves and abandon the work !;
while yet another from the big timber of
Columbia county says the time is SO
propitious for waiting that we ought to
take unanimous and generous wait,
until our enterprise was rewarded. The
fact of the matter is that we as people
don't care a cent what our delegation in
congress think, but we give them credit
for having average intelligence, and
know that they would be glad to see us
doing something for ourselves. As to
tn government abandoning the work,
that is the veriest bosh. 1t would show
instead how urgent the matter is, and
therefore tend to hasten the work. ANY
thing we may do to help ourselves will
cause the permanent work to be finished
sooner it otherwise would be, and in the
meanwhile the saving in freights in one
year caused by the building of the
portage railroad will pay the cost of
building it, half dozen times a year.
With four men laying stone, or as Major
Handbury grandiloquently insists with
seven so engaged, the completion of the
canal is as remote as Jay Gould's CONVEX
sion to decency. The pin-feathers of
time will be ripened and plucked to
make couch for Eternity, before the
last OF the multivigant estimates are
made and the plans completed, let alone
the wall. We want the portage railroad
and we want it now. This generation
that is developing the state, wrestling
with country where every other section
is retired from business by process of
law, and railroad company that collects
In freights per cent. earnings on 300
per cent watered stock, demands relief.
The portage railroad will furnish it, and
the portage road we must have.

From the Stage to the Bar.

Most actors and actresses are in the
profession because they are in love with
it, but among the members of the 'sBrass
Monkey" company is handsome and
bewitching brunette who but six months
ago made her debut ON the stage as a
stepping stone to some u1terior object in
life.
This young lady halls from Chicago,
and is just II. She is an exceptionally
brilliant inguist, has fine voice, is
graceful in the extreme, and is a clever
little actress. Her intentions are to re-
main on the stage just one year, and
then study law with view of practicing
as an attorney in Illinois, She is taking
this preliminary course on the stage for
the purpose of perfecting her e1ocution-
airy powers and to cultivate an sat
home" feeling with large audiences.
The real name of this young lady is
Fanchon Conyers, and it is safe to pre-
dict that she will be heard from some
day in the legal arena like the cricket on
the hearth.-Portland Oregonian.

Boys. Keep Away from Africa.

Two or three weeks ago three young
men. each having over 81 900 in cash,
left Pittsburg for Africa to explore.
About a dozen letters have been re-
ceived from boys referring to this Incl
dent and asking for advice or informa-
tion. Had the three young men set out
for an idiot asylum, calculating to ask
to be taken in and cared for during the
remainder of their lives, they would
have exhibited more common sense.
Africa is not country where every
Tom, Dick and Harry can go roaming
about at will. All the seaports are in
the hands of Egyptians, Moors, French,
Germans or English. Any one has a
legal right to land, but not every one
has a legal right to go gallivanting
around the country.
Stanley had to have the backing of
two governments to enable him to do So
A correspondent of The New York
World was threatened with arrest if he
went beyond certain boundaries A
young man who has no better sense
than to set out on such an expedition
ought to have guardian, and that
guardian ought to have legal permission
to tan his jacket ten times day.-M

Herman L. Chase has been appointed
receiver of the Spokane Falls National
bank by the comptroller of the currency.
The bank failed about two months ago
and nothing has been done in regard to it
until now a receiver has been appointed.
1t is safe to say that no better selection
could have been made than that of Mr..
Chase and if it is possible to save any
thing for the depositors and put the
bank on its feet again it will now be
done. Men of finance understand the
ability of the receiver and will help him
to the means of rehabiliIating the bank
and we shall look for it again to take
rank among the sound financial institu-
tions of Spokane Falls. At any rate
every depositor will be honestly dealt
with and every dollar saved to them
that is possible. Mr.. Chase comes from
banking stock, he being a relative of ex-
Secretary Chase. His training was
given him in Wall street, New York,
and during the war, as head of one of the
departments in Washington, he did val
lent work for the government. Mr.
Chase came to Spokane Falls about three
years ago and was largely the means of
bringing the Browne National bank into
existence, and was that brains of the in
stitution, but not desiring to enter the
mad race for wealth that characterizes
the financiers of that city he removed to
Tacoma to accept position of more i'm
Portance. His return to Spokane in
charge of the bank that fell through
reckless speculation, is simply poetic
justice, and we predict that Mr.. Chase
will add laurels to his already well de-
served reputation as financier and an
honorable and courteous gentleman,
who ties to his friends with hooks of
steel and who has never yet learned to do
a mean or a small thing
