Effective Light for Large Room.
One of the most effective ways af
lighting a large apartment has been
devised for an English wing-room,
and consists of an alabaster pillar
through which streams soft radiance.
The gas jets are inclosed in the hollow
receptacle, and the ventilation is through
the ceiling, OF course there is nothing
in the world so pretty as wax caEdles,

sive, but are difficult to manage on ac-

whose pestilential atmosphere gained
for it the omininous name of the
"City Of the Plague" says Mollahs, or
the priests. whose Influence with the
populace is very powerful, have
preached that the outbreak of the chol-
era is due to the sale of alcoholic Ii
quors. The language excited the pop
ulace to frenzy. Mobs gathered in the
vicinity Of the Mosques, and determ-
med to take summary measures to
abolish the liquor traffic. Raids were
forthwith made on the dram shops,
which were plundered. The mob de-
stroyed the goods Of a number of Ar
menian traders, who are Russian sub
iects. Russian consul, fearing the
trouble would grow and he might be
attacked, telegraphed to ST. Peters
burg for assistance. The government
at once gave orders for the despatch OF
25O mounted Cossacks, which arrived
at Astrabad, where they are guarding

STRIKE AT DUaUEsNE ENDED
About Four Hundred Laborers Re-
turn to Work

HOMESTEAD, PA, August 8.-The
strikers at Duquesne went to work
this morning, and the Carnegies scor-
ed one more victory on Saturday
night. Superintendent Morrison post
ed notice to all men who applied for
their old jobs to report at the mill at
7 o'clock this morning, as the mill
would resume at that hour. Long be-
fore the time set, however, workers
with dinner pales quietly stole upon
the unfrequented streets and along the
railroad track so as to enter the mill
unobselved by fellow-strikers' AS 7
o'clock approached the number ofmen
who entered the mill yard through
this means reached 400. About sixty
men, who are leaders, in sympathy
with the strike movement gathered
on the road near the mill gate, and
watched in moody silence the men
going into the works, Finally the
mill whistle blew for 7 o'clock. AT
that large Irishman exclaimed in a
loud voice: "Well, men, the jig is up.
We had better hustle fer our old
places"
i
This was the signal for panic, and
the entire crowd ran toward the gate.
A freight train was backed in front of
the gate, but the men did not wait for
il to be moved, but scrambled over
and under it in their frantic haste to
get inside the mill before the whistle
stopped blowing. 1t was u complete
stampede. The men organized into
amalgamated association at no little
expense, and they went out on the
sympathetic strike movement about
two weeks ago. They were expelled
| from the amalgamated association and
the Carnegie Steel Co, now has two
non-union mills. The effect Of the
break at Duquesne cannot but prove
harmful to the men at Homestead,
although the leaders have not believed
it yet At Duquesne steel billets can
be manufactured and sent to Home
stead to be rolled into plates by nom
union men. So the firm will be in a
far better condition to fiji contracts
aud prosecute the fight here.

sixteen years we have been in
the newspaper business, most Of the
time in Georgia, and have persistently

scratched ticket or failed to vote,
when we could; have never run for an

too much pride and devotion to our
profession, journalism, to enter the

indulgence for this personal allusiOn,

We have gone to much expense in
improving the Democrat, and now

Rev. Shelton Again in Trouble.

Rev. r. j. Shelton has again spent a
night in the city calaboOse, and whis-
key was the cause. lie was arrested
Saturday night for being drunk. The
police escorted him to the calaboose
and locked him up.
Heretofore Shelton has been dis
charged, but this drunk came very
near causing him to be sent to the
county farm. He was released yester-
day. however. Shelton when arrested
cursed the officers with the blacklist
Caths.
Rev. Shelton about year ago de-
clared from his pulpit that he was a
second Christ, and later on was locked
up on charge Of insanity preferred
by responsible member Of Shelton's
congregation.
lie was called to Little Rock six
years ago by the denomination of
Christians, coming here from Brook
Ign, N. Y. Shortly after Shelton's
astonishing revelation and about the
time of his incarceration on the insan-
ity charge, he prepared to take his de-
parture for Kansas City, Mo-, which
city, be said, was to be his headquar-
tiers. The next step in Shelton's ca
reer was a suit for divorce brought by
Mrs. Shelton, who still lives in Little
Rock, the charge in the petition being
desertion. The petition was granted.
Four or five months ago Shelton re-
turned 20 Little Rock and startled the
community second time by remarry-
ing his divorced wife. lie declared
this step to accord with the law and
the prophets. lie preached few
sermons after this, but the love for
whiskey seem to have gotten the
best of him, and Of late he has devot-
ed his undivided attention to secur-
ing drinks on "the bum" principle

ONLY ONE HOPE.
Col. H. Clay Kings Life Depends Up
on the Will of the Governor--Prep-
arations for the Execution.

MEMPHIS, August 8.-There are
possibly two anchors of hope for Col.
II. Clay Hing, but it is probable that
one of these has been cut away. His
friends may have recourse to the Uni
ted States Supreme Court but from
the action of the attorneys and also
from the opinion of learned lawyers,
it may be safe to base an opinion that
application was made to the Supreme
Court for a writ of error before tine
steps were taken in the Federal Court
in Nashville This avenue of escape
from the gallowS closed, the friends of
King have only one more road leading
away from death by the rope, and
john p. Buchanan holds the gate
across it. None of his friends are so
sanguine as to hope for
PARDON BY THE GOVERNOR,
but his friends and the lawyers are
trying to secure a communication Of his
sentence to Imprisonment for life.
Judge Greer left Nashville last night
with batch Of petitions to lay before
the Governor, and this morning Hon.
G. b. Mitchell, of counsel for Col.
King, visited the Jail and spent hal
an hour with the condemned prisoner.
Col. King was in better spirits after
the departure Of Col. Mitchell, aud
the lawyer gave out the information
that he
HAD GREAT HOPES
that Col. King would be permitted to
spend the rest ofhis days in the peni-
Tertiary.
He will probably leave for Nash
vile tonight.
After the departure ofCOl. Mitchell,
Mr.. Brooks, Kings son-in-law, called
at the jail and spent some time with
him. In the meantime the construc
ton of the scatfold will be commenced
on Wednesday in the Jail yard. The
death watch will be placed on Col
King tomorrow or the next day.

The Peoples party in their platform
demand that the Government buy all
the railroads, canals, telegraph and
telephone lines and operate them, and
reclaim all lands sold corporations.
Now let us see about the cost: The
railroads are worth $8,000,000,000,
telegraph lines $135,000,000, telephone
lines $30,000,000, canals 81 ,000, $1,000,
lands sold to corporations $3.50, 100000.
Total $9195,000,000. This would
require nearly 5000 from every man
woman and child in the United States,
and yet the Third party people claim
that there is only S4,75 for each inhab-
liant now in circulation. Where is
the money to come from? This does
not take into account the cost of the
sub-treasury scheme advocated by tho
Peoples party. Their demands arc
not good nonsense, They are worse

TEXARKANA FAIR.
More Attractive than Ever--Will be
Held Oct. 10th to 18th Inclusive.

Directors of the TeXarkana Fair AS
ISOLATION have decided that the next
annual fair be held October 10th to
18th inclusive, making five days, and
have closed contract for the printing
of the illustrated advertising matter,
with which to bill the surrounding
territory. The time selected is a
good hit, as there is then generally lit
tie rain fall, and farmers will not be so
busy as later in season, and hence
a turn out is apt to be better
Glad to know that the financial
status of the association is good, and
that no expense or pains will be spar
ed toward making the Fair the best
one yet held. Directors and officers
deserve much credit for their splendid
work.
Premium lists, purses, etc, to be Of
fered will be as large and liberal as
any heretofore, which will draw big
crowds for every day.
Now let our farmer friends prepare
full agricultural and other exhibits.
This will not only tend to make this
fair bigger success, but benefit the
farmer in many ways, even if a pre-
MUM is not received.
Let everybody work in unison to
make our Fair, this fall, the most sue
cessful one in the State.

OKLAHOMA OF TODAY.

The opening of the Cheyenne and
Arapahoe country in the near future has
again turned the attention of the coun-
try to this wonderful little domain.
Oklahoma Of today is not the Okla
homa of three years ago. Everywhere
the touch of the finger of civilization is
apparent. Where once the endless prai
RE rolled, unmarked and boundIess, are
now strong, substantial fences and -four
ishing hedges. The roads have been
forced to the section lines; the pastures
have been enclosed: the fields turned
and TILED; the little shack that served in
an early day, all too poorly for shelter
from wind and rain, has given way to
comfortable house of lumber or a coy,
home like cabin. The farms are well
stocked; orchards, soon TO be redolent
with the perfume of their blossoms, dot
every claim and homestead.
Haystacks loom up on every mea dow
and everything of rural nature is indi-
cative Of full-measured prosperity and
profitable business.
1t is not strange that Oklahoma pre-
sents singularly finished appearance.
The bulk of its settlers went into the
country for home, not for indulgence
in the painted fables of pioneer life.
They went there for a home, and when
they gained the requisite land for a
foundation. they proceeded without de-
lay or hesitation to make them 4 home.
They brought experience with them:
they understood that a farm enclosed is
infinitely better than an unfenced one:
they realized that the earlier the fruit
trees were planted, the sooner they
would give profitable return: they did
not uudervalue the good of meadow
lands, or shirk the duty of plowing
thoroughly aud deep.
The result is, that for new country,
Oklahoma is in up-top condition. BE
sides it is being constantly replenished
by purchasers from the east. for the
trade in farm lands is excellent.
With the prospect of three important
and successive openings within the next
year, Oklahoma bids fair to become both
a great aud prosperous domain instan-
taneouSly, an end but rarely gained by
any new country.
