From the Dnhnnne aoma1I Telegram.

From the Dubuque (Iowa) Telegraph.
The adjourning of the impeachment court
last Saturday, on account of Gen. Weayer's
belly-ache, cost the people Of this common
wealth nearly $500. One dose of Chamber
lain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrh@a Remedy
would have saved this expense; and we sug-
gest, as a matter of economy and humanity,
that the state provide against future con-
tingencies of this nature, by furnishing each
senator with q bottle of that valuable remedy.

CHICAGO. Sept Hon. l.. s. Thurs
ton of Honolulu. who Is in the city, said
to a reporter tonight that the Mckinley
bill has had the effect of uniting the ma
tive and foreign population of Hawaii
upon the subject OF annexation. He has
lust received one of the native ~ewspape
which advocates the formation Of a repub-
lie or immediate annexation to the United
States. This fact is remarkable, as
it IS the first time 10 Hawaiian
history that the natives have publicly IA
vored such a thing. While il is true they
are weary of monarchy, vet nothing hut
the blow at Hawaii's sugar industries
could have brought them to favor
annexation. The hope of the plant
ers there is that the president will
next year exercise the power gwen him
to place the duty again pon beet sugar
from such countries as have not
reciprocated with the necessary free
entries. This would relieve the burden,
but at any rate the Hawaiians are
preparing to negotiate with the United
States for free trade. Thurston says that
now that the sugar industry is no longer
the great source of income, it is intended
to bring the islands prominently before
the world as a land for tourists.

MARTINsvILLE, Ind, Sept. IA SINH
lar lynching to the one enacted in Shelby
vile a week g was narrowly averted IN
this city last night. The causes that
would have led to the same were strik-
ingly similar. Dillon Core. a young I'M
married farmer, was drinking and very
quarrelsome during the afternoon. Off
GER Cox was attempting his arrest when
Core plunged the blade of a knife into
him, then coolly walked up a crowded
street with the knife open in his
hand. The officer called out. Catch him,
he has stabbed me-" but the crowd
stepped back to allow him to pass.
Two hours later he was arrested near
the city limits and brought back through
the crowded streets, and it was thought
for a time that he would suffer death at
the hands of the fast organizing mob.
Some one threw half a brick at him
during the excitement, and it struck j..
II. Hart, a prominent business man,
who was attempting to dispel the mob.
sguarely in the forehead. Half an hour
of the hardest work was necessary to
lodge him in Jail. two squares away. He
was disarmed of a revolver, a pair of
brass knuckles and a knife. Mr.. Cox is
stabbed below the left arm pit, the blade
entering the lung. Mr.. Cox is about 10
years Of age and his recovery is very
doubttul.

AN WI Drlen : Dlu was the lowest,
he was given the contract.
The bond Of Geo. East for the building
of the hand rail on the viaduct approaches
was approved.
An ordinance making it punishable for
driving faster than a walk over the via
duct was passed. The penalty for vio-
lating the ordinance is from $15 to 800
fine.
Mr.. Ketchum, whose ranc'I is north of
Fort Russell, claims damages from the
city because Of the terra Gotta conduit
that crosses his land. The conduit leads
from the lakes to the city dam on Crow
creek and, as Mr.. Ketchum claims, the
city has no right Of way across his ranch
so he wants damages. He thinks the
amount should be 50, 900 but he will COM
promise for $1,000. He saws that the
conduit belongs to him and if he cant get
the money he will destroy the pipe.
The mayor presented a communication
to the council v%etoing the ordinance in
regard to grades introduced at the last
meeting. The veto was overruled and
the ordinance passed.
There was also presented an opinion
from the city attorney in which he stated
that IN his opinion the resolution passed
at the previous meeting ordering the lay
ing of a sidewalk on O'Neil street and
charging of the same to the property own
ers was not legal. The council differed
from the city attorney and will go ahead
with the work taking chances on getting
the money expended from the property
owners.
The mayor had some names to send in
to fill the vacancies existing but the coun-
Gil adjourned without considering them.
A large number of bills, principally for
salaries, were passed.

OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla, Sept. l.
The town is thoroughly excited tonight
oyer an assault committed BY a burly
negro woman this morning upon Mrs.
Mary Bryant, a white woman, and her
little daughter. Mrs. Bryant is a widow
and supported herself and two children
by taking in washing. A week ago she
was taken sick and the neighbors en-
ployed the negro woman, Carrie Hewlett,
to act as nurse. This morning the little
Bryant girl spilled some water on the
nurse, who flew into a violent passion,
aud, grabbing up a heavy stick of wood,
beat the girl savagely. Mrs. Bryant
staggered from the bed and went to the
assistance of her daughter, and she in
turn was assailed by the nov thor
oughly Infatuated negress, this time
with a Ratchet. The instrument was
II blunt one, but the force of the blows
were SO great that both OF Mrs. Bryant's
arms were broken and two deep gashes were
inflicted on her back. By this time an
officer made his appearance, md the
neQress made a rush at him with a butcher
knife, but the policeman threw her down
and took the knife away. To the officer
the woman expressed regret that she had
not succeeded in killing her victims. The
little girl bad three ribs broken, and to-
night 1t is feared that both will die. This
evening arrangements were made to take
the away from the Jail and hang
her. but some one gave away the plot to
Sheriff Colford, so just at dusk a file Of
soldiers under Capt. Stiles marched up
to the Jail, where the negress was
turned over to them for safekeeping.
The negro population became greatly
excited over the talk of lynching, and
openly declared that they would resist any
attempt OF the white element to hang the
prisoner. A squad of policemen surprised
fourteen negroes In consultation and ar
rested four of them. the rest escaping.
Two ~shotguns. heavily charged with buck
shot. were taken. Knots of men are
gathered on every corner. eagerly discuss
ing the situation, and fears are expressed
that a race war is imminent. Mayor
Guatt has assumed personal control of the
police force, and as he is a man of pru'
dence and judgment it is hoped that he
will succeed in averting the impending
trouble.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Sept. 1.-The
latest wrinkle in matrimony among minors
who fail to get the parental consent to
their union comes from Oakland. Hereto
fore loving youths and msidens who were
under the age and were prevented from
getting a marriage license have gone out.
side OF the Golden Gate, and while Civ
ing tribute to Neptune have gone through
the marriage ceremony. Sea sickness
isn't pleasant, especially at such a time,
and the new method will probably have
many imitators. Ii consists IN an Immi-
tation of that marriage contract with
which Sarah Althea brought such trouble
and expense on old Senator Sharon. The
Oakland youth and maiden went before
an Alameda county notary public, and
the following document was signed:
"George Henry Fidler, aged 10 years
and a resident of Alameda, and Carrie
Eta Bailey, aged l6, a resident OF said
city and county, do hereby mutually agree
to take each other IN marriage, and to
sustain toward each other the relation of
husband and wife, and do hereby declare
that we are husband aud wife one to the
other. We further declare that this mar
rage has not been solemnized in any man
ner. In witness whereof we have here
unto set our hands"
This action of the young people pro-
duced a sensation at their homes, and 1t
is probable that a regular church marriage
will o follow.
