What PETER Was Thinking.

saw Senator PETER going down one of the
corridors of the Senate wing yesterday. says
gossip writer in the Washington Post. His
grave demeanor and peculiar actions attracted
my attention and watched him TO ascertain If
possible the cause of the exhibition. The noted
Kansan stroked his luxuriant beard with a
sedate and stately motion; his eyes were cast
down upon the marble thing, and while his
movement was not lacking in dignity it was
unique to superlative degree. Senator PETER
raised his right foot moved it forward slowly
and then gently, but firmly, placed it upon the
floor; his left foot followed the example OF its
fellow, aud every time the action was repeated
his chest would expand and q sigh would break
from him that was indicative OF a mild and
gentle, but none the less exquisite and soul
satisfying delight. While was watching him
and trying to reach reason for the senator's
occupation, Gus McSween came along.
Gus" said l, what the dickens is PETER
dong?'
Gus locke him over. bent his mouth to my
and softly whispered:
"He thinks he is following in the footsteps of
Daniel Webster"

The Governors Information Rakes the
Woman Severely.
ATLANTA, GA, May S0.-Another sensa-
tional chapter is added to the charge and
countercharges between Gov. Northen and
c. c. Post, the third party satellite from
Chicago, to-day. In his speech at Warren
ton Saturday in citing evidence to show
that his charges against Post were true,
Gov. Northen quoted DIR. L. r. Whitley of
Douglasville, where Post and his wife lived
several years. In a card defending her hus-
band, published last Saturday. Mrs Post
also took occasion to allude to DR.. Whitley.
but hers was not a fatterIng allusion, and
to-day DR.. Whitley replies TO Posts wife in
a card that is remarkable for its scathing
rebuke. DR.. Whitley says: my life
would give for the protection of the
fair name Of our southern women,
and it is f or the love have for my country
that would lift the veil from this satanic
emissary from Chicago and let the people
look on her with the man who now lives
with her and expose their infamous doc
trines. They are a stencil III the nostrils
of all those who have morality, Christianity
and virtue and abhor infldelity, socialism =,
free love and all the other isms that are
trying to tear down the churches of our
Lord. Mrs. Post says all the people of
Douglasville love her except DIR. Whitley
and two or three of his stripe. / am sure |
feel complimented by the comparison, as
the persons referred to are the ministers Of
Douglasville who denounced her from their
pulpits.
THE PETITION.
MRS. Post says that when they left
Douglasville the people got up petition
asking them to come back. Mr.. Baggett, a
somewhat new resident of Douglasville
and strong third party man, circulated
petition asking her to come back. A few
signed; a great many refused. Another
petition was gotten out asking her to return
to Chicago. At this junctnre the first petit
tion disappeared from Dougasville and we
thought it had been withdrawn, but the
people stated on the streets there that it
was a trick of yours to use after
ward to try to show that Douglasville
approves the damnable rctteness of your
unholy methods. No one can but be dis
gusted with your idea OF popularity. When
you speak of q man who knows no God,
who does not reg ard the Sabbath, who
denouuces the churches, VINO will lie Co suit
his interest, as the purest man in the world
| will tell you, as long as there is any
southern blood there will be men to resent
the infamous lie of c. G. Pest when he said
a short time ago that the women of this
country had to live life of shame in order
to get bread"
Gov. Northern returned to the city to-day
but declined to say anything further in
reference to Post.

Gov. Tillmen to Break Up the Sunday
Resort of Augusta Sports.
COLUMBIA, s. c., May 3O.-Gov. TillInan
has accomplished clever bit of detective
work, and in one haul arrested twenty-five
white men. Augusta has passed an en-
barge against the liquor traffic and every
thing in the shape Of barrooms and sport
iug houses are closed on Sunday. The sports
and beer drinkers were, however. not to be
outdone, and accordingly established Sun
day adJuncts in Hamburg, which is just
across the Savannah river from
Augusta. The intendent and war
dens were, it seems, interested
In the Sunday scheme, and Gov. Tillman
had to be called upon to save Hamburg this
Sunday nuisance. He appointed two state
constables, who worked, up a case, and,
with the assistant attorney general, twenty
two arrests were made to-day. The liquor
fight against this interference Of Gov. 1fll-
man.
HAD A BAD NAME.
AUGUSTA, GA, May S0.-For months
past Hamburg, s. c., which is just across
the river from Augusta, has been the noto-
rious headquarters for sporting characters
and disregard for law. Cock fights and
wild cat and dog fights have flourished
there and the bars were open on Sunday
for all corners. To-day Gov. TiIlman cre-
ated a sensation over there by having war
rants sworn out for the arrest of Louis
Schiller, the mayor Of Hamburg; Thomas
Butler and William Schinall. It is under
stood that Gov. Tillman means business in
this fight to reform Hamburg and will urge
vigorous prosecution of the cases.

COLUMBIA, S. c., May 3O.-An encounter
occurred to-day at Newberry between DR..
Sampson Pope, leading Tillmanite, clerk
of the state Senate and candidate for con-
gress, and Col. Ellison s. Keitt, an alliance
leader and third party man. On meeting
Boil. Keitt said: ''Good morning. sir.D to
which DIR. Pope replied: "How dare you

walking cane several times. Col. KeiUt
warded off the blows, but made no effort to
strike back, simply saying: you cow
ard" DR.. Pope was fined $40 by the mayor.
He stated that he waited on the corner to
attack Col. Keitt because Of reflection on
his war record by the latter in newspaper
article.
THE ARTICLE.
In this article Col. Keitt said: "Of
the $1,000 soldiers that South Carolina
put in the field during the late war 1t
would be curious to know how many of the
Iillman gang, who are pre-eminently for
revenue only, were in the war. One at
least, who is loud in their counsel, the first
fight his company was in, lifted his feet so
fast that bullet couldn't catch him. He
made straight for the hospital and the
yellow flag. The end of the war found him
under the yellow flag attending to the sick
and wounded; a safe place. He is now in
congenial company. Though no names
were called DR.. Pope took this to himself
and states that Col. Keitt wrote it because
he Pope introduced anti-third party reso-
