he fell In with the single-tax apostle,
who in due time made him familiar
with the pleasures OF the wheel. Rep

The Entertainment Given by Home Talent
 Wednesday Night.
 The entertainment Wednesday night, given for the benefit of the Episcopal church fund, was most pleasing and enjoyable event, and we regret that so few of the citizens attended. How ever, the ladies cleared S25.00. which, considering the hard times and short notice given the public. is quite nice little sum and will help great deal in the good work begun by the ladies of this denomination. The programme, which is given below, was an attractive one and the sdyeral specialties were We'll rendered and highly appreciated by the audience, as was evidenced by their applause.

The violin obigato and recital, "Goblins. by little Annie Dunn, was perhaps the greatest treat of the per formance. She is but nine years of age and yet plays the most difficult music on her little violin. In her re- cital gestures she was the embodiment of grace.
 Mrs. w. German deserves much praise for her beautiful solo and un- tiring energy in preparing the enter tainment.

OswEGo, n. Y, Sept. 1.-What prom

Of affairs between the Forty-eighth
Separate Company, N. G. S., New York,
and the knights of Labor has been
happily adjusted. The knights are to
have big celebration on labor day and
some time ago invited the military to
head their parades. The invitation,
which came from District Assembly Al,
was accepted. While the company was
at Buffalo aiding in suppressing the
riots hot.tempered element got con-
troll OF ono Of the local assemblies and
adopted n resolution requesting the dis
trict assembly to withdraw tho invita-.
ton.
On learning OF this action on its re-
turn from Buffalo the'company held n
meeting, withdrew its acceptance OF the
invitation and adopted vigorous resoiu-
tons denouncing the action OF the as
sembly US an insult to the National
Guard and to the state and demanding
that the District Assembly Immediately
denounce and repudiate the action OF
the subordinate body. The master
workman called meeting for last night
and resolutions in compliance with the
demand Of the military were unani.
mously adopted. The action OF the
local assembly was strongly denounced
and the invitation to the military
heartily renewed. The company will
probably lead the procession. Tho con-
troversy caused much excitement and
comment and public opinion is unani-
nous with the guardsmon.

did fearful work in Henderson county
yesterday afternoon. At Columbia,
Charles summerford was struck and in
stantly killed. The same bolt struck
and set FIRE to his stables, and they
were burned, with their contents. An
other house in the same neighborhood
was struck and demolished, but no one
injured. At Dothan water and the
lightning did the greatest damage. The
open cotton was practically ruined.
Corn was blown down and crops Of all
kinds greatly injured. Three resi-
dences were struck by lightning and
wrecked. In one OF them Lawrence
Ennis. an old man, was sitting near an
open fireplace, and was rendered un-
conscious for several hours.
