THE ANVIL

Many hours have l stood watching
By the village DlacaSmith's anvil,
Where, upon tae glowing meta,
Dealt he blow on blow Ike rain,
Forging bolt or ar or horseshoe,
Turning shear or pruning sickle,
Or . llnA for some great chain.
How the sparks At each conclusion
Flew IN bright and burning showers,
As the hammer, merrily ringing,
Fell. and rose TO fall again;
While beneath il all the anvil.
Sturdy, strong and firmly seated,
Never seemed to heed the strain
Many men have I seen standing
Sturdy, strong and firmly anchored,
While upon them like the anvil,
Fell tie blows Of fate amain;
Turned they not from searching SORROW
Nor the very king Of terrors,
Proudly steadfast. true in manhood,
Showed not where blow had lain.

OMAHA, Sept. Private advices
from Chicago are that Armour has
bought the Wcodman & Harris grain
elevators on tie Burlington & Missouri
road in this state Kansas and Colorado.
1t is said there that the firm had hor-
rowed heavily of Armour. Harris cid
not want to attempt to carry on the
business after Woodman's death, and
he made the deal, leaving the firm a
neat amount as its balance. Armour
owns many elevators on the Burlington
east of the river, and they will operate
nicely in this connection. Forty or
fifty elevators in this state have been
owned by Woodman & Harris.

Ritehie elevator to secure notes for
$50, 900, arranged to-day to release the
attachment and accept a real estate
mortgage in its stead The banks
have been very cautious since Mr..
WOOdman's death to protec their loans,
for his business was complex and he
was really the head OF the different
concerns. and they did not know what
might arise, but now their confidence is

MARRIED HER MASTER.
Death of a One-Tims slave Who Becams
the wife of a Planter.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. Sept 1.-The viii
Of Rosa f. Randolph has been probated
here. She leaves her property, valued
at about 5000, to various Baptist in
situations and to her mother and hus-
band. There is story of more than
common interest connected with this
estate. The testatrix was in years
gone by the mistress and slave of Mat
thew Coke, wealthy Mississippi
planter who owned large interests in
and around Memphis. The fruit Of
this connection was family of seven
children, all of whom are now dead. In
1870, in order to protect Rosa against
poverty in the event she should outlive
him, Coke married her in this city, a
colored minister performing the cere-
mony. No witnesses were present on
this occasion, and to repair the Omis-
sion the couple were remarked at Greu-
ada, Miss. in 1915, in the presence Of
two residents Of the town.
In 1886 Coke died. He left will de-
visIng to his wife, Rosa, their comfort
able residence in this city and a fine
farm of 400 acres of cotton land situated
on Presidents Island, four miles below
the city. The remainder of his prop
erty was left to his niece, whose hus-
band assumed the duties of executor.
Soon after Rosa was prevailed on to
sign deed devising all her part of the
property to the executors grandchild-
rem, retaining for herself only life in
terest in the same. She afterward
claimed she did not know what she was
signing away, and only did it through
affection for the executors wife and
awe of him. Subsequently Rosa mar
ried Burrell Randolph, colored police
man. Randolph soon found out how
the land lay. and under his persuasion
his wife brought suit in chancery for
the restoration of all her rights in the
property left to her by Coke. The court
gave decree in her favor and she died
in possession of her legacy.

GEORGETOWN, KY, Sept, lat
3 O'Clock this morning $50 men came in
to town and, taking the negro murderer
of Frank Hughes out of Jail, hanged
him to black locust tree.
The mob came from the direction Of
Peaks mill. They came on horses and
in vehicles, They hitched at the out
skirts Of .eyn and walked to the jail and
demanded admission. Jailer Reed
came down and was seized and the keys
taken from him. They then made him
show them Dudley's cell and at
once took Dudley out. They
hustled him out to the plain,
where they had left their horses and
vehicles. He was stood on stone wall
under tree with limb extending
over the pike. Asked if he had any
thing to say. he replied that he had
killed Mr.. Hughes accidentally. Some
one in the crowd yelled, eve will now
hang you accidentally" and it was i'm
mediately done. The crowd then fired
a fusilade of shots and went away.
A great crowd OF negroes went out
to the scene and made many threats Of
vengeance, but the authorities are pre-
pared to preserve order at any hazard.
The negro women were particularly
demonstrative, some declaring that
their husbands had no spunk and that
they ought to burn every house in
town and kill ever white man.

Plumb on Proctor.

ATCHIsoN, August 3I.- "Who will
be appointed secretary OF war when
Proctor resigns?" asked a reporter
of Senator Plumb at Topeka
81 don't know" he answered. IF 1
were to venture CUES should say ex-
Governor Cheney of New Hampshire.
That seems to be the talk in Washing
ton, and. from what 1 have learned,
President Harrison is seriously think
ing of appointing him. 1t will be diff
cult to FIJI Mr.. Proctor's place. He is
the best secretary of war we have had
since went to Washington. He is a
great administrator, and he never gets
into a row with the army. More than
this, he conducts the department
economically."
