a Race war May Result.

FAYETTE, Mo-, April 24.--Thls town is
again on the verge of race war because
of vsgrsnt sale of negroes, which took
place here yesterday. About q month
ago good deal of excitement was caused
by the sale of three vagrant negroes.
Yesterday the feeling was intensified by
the public sale on the block of three men
and one woman, because they could offer
no visible means of support. Henry
Thompson, William Miller and John
Wilkins were the men. All are hearty
negroes who had never before been ar
rested. The woman was Mary Whiteside.
She was accused OF vagrancy. The
colored people were brought into the
public square at II O'clock and a great
crowd of both co!ors gathered. The
whites made fun of the poor victims, and
the blacks freely expressed their dis
pleasure at an abuse which SO cruelty
brought to their minds the days of
slavery. The woman was put up first,
She brought $40 for sixty days work.
The men sold for $40, $l2 and $13 re-
spectively, being taken by reliable farm
ers here about the country. The negroes
declare that this must stop. or that the
whites must be sold with the negroes.
The sale took place on block, Sheriff
Creiger officiating.

A Train Wrecked Near Colfax.

CoLFAx, Wash, April 22.-The train
which left this city for Spokane at
O'Clock, was wrecked on curve four
miles down the line The accident was
caused by the fange of the front wheel
of the locomotive breaking. On round
ing the curve on the up grade, the broken
fiange struck the rail and threw the en-
CINE off the track. The engine was re-
yersed at once, but whirled into the
ditch On the left side of the track and
p!owed the earth many yards, almost
burying itself. The wrecked train con
sisted of sleeper. two chair r-cars, sec
ond class passenger and smoker, beside
the express, baggage aud mail cars.
Frank Walls, the engineer. and Charles
Keys, the fireman, were the only ones iu-
jured, Walls being scalded about the
neck and left arm. but not dangerously,
and Keys cut about the face and neck.
A relief train was Immediately sent to
the scene of the wreck, and the passenger.
cars, which remained on the track, were
brought back to Colfax. AT $50, the
train left for Spokane by way of Pheasant
Valley. At the scene of the wreck, the
rails are in kinks for forty yards, and it
will take till noon tomorrow to put the
track in proper condition. Considerable
excitement was oecssloned here when the
news first reached the city, as score or
more of prominent people were on the
train bound for Spokane to attend the
Marine band concert.

The Girl was saved.

PORTSMOUTH, N. H., April 25.--Tbls
morning Rose Foster, Ethel Gray, Oscar
Treftehen and Fred Burke, all of this
city, started up Plscataqua river in a
sailboat. When near Portsmouth and
Kittery bridge, strong current sent the
boat against a bridge and all four occu-
pants were thrown out. Young Trefte-
hen caught hold of the bridge and pulled
himself out of the water. Burke tried to
support both girls, but, finding he could
not, he relinquished his hold on Miss
Gray, who turned on her back and float
ed. Cries from Treftehen caused boats
to put out from two scnooners lying at
the pier. One of the boats reached the
Gray girl, who had hoated half a mile in
the river, and picked her up unharmed.
The other boat proceeded after Burke
and his companion, but just before it
reached them Burke sank and was
drowned. The girl was sinking for the
third time when seized by her rescuers.
The Foster girl was taken ashore at Kit
terry, and, after being unconscious nearly
two hours, recovered her senses, but has
been in very precarious condition all
day.

A Saloon Stabbing ARRAY.

TACOMA, Wash, April 25.- Frank R.
Davidson, saloon-k keeper, tonight
stabbed Ben Everett, another saloon
keeper and prominent Republican poll
tician. Davidson had been quarrelling
with ex Mayor George B. Handle, whom
he blames with the loss of his license, and
Everett interrupted. Davidson turned
on the latter and stabbed him repeatedly
In the face and left arm. There are six
saloons in the. block with Everett's and
Davidson's, and the projectors Of two
new blocks propose to reduce the number
to three. Davidson accused Kandle of
interfering, and evidently wanted to pre-
clpitate fight. Handle went into Ever
etl's saloon, Davidson following and
flinging handful oI coin into his face.
Handle asked for protection and Everett
led Davidson to an alley where the latter
pulled knife from his pocket and began
slsshing, the first laying open the left
temple two inches deep to the skull.
Everett did not know be was being
stabbed until the flow of blood blinded
him. Davidson tad then stabbed him
three times in the breast and four times
in the lett arm, oIly one of which drew
blood, that being four inches long and
three quarters of an inch deep, Everett
will not consent to the arrest of David
son. Handle says he had no voice in the
license matter. Davidson. alter the fight,
with revolver. but die not at
tempt to shoot.
