the people of Georgia upon the polt;-

the present national campaign. Inc

rowdyism at some of the points visited
within the state so great AS TO render
it InadvIsablc for me to attempt To fill
the engagements at the points not al
ready rescued.
Personal indignIty was threatened
at Waycross, but VAS suppressed by
the attendance of large number of
our friends and the careful manage
ment of Mr.. Reed, the local chairman
At Albany we met II bowling mob
which refused To accord us respect
full and uninterrupted hearing. Our
meeting at Columbus was grand sue

ment of Mr.. c. J. Thornton. About
5000 people attended this NICE ting, and

the fact that the disorder is almost ex-
clusively confined to young rowdies
who infest the towns and who are in

specially worthy of note that the dis
respect does not proceed from these

to say that many people who are not

ST. LOUIS CARNIVAL.
MARKED INCREASE IN THE AT
TENDANCE AND ENTHU-
SiASM AT THE EXPOSITION.
Arrangements for the Yelled PROPHETS
Reception, Parade aud -Exoep-
tionally Low Railroad Rates.

ST.. LOUIS, Sept, 22.--The Exposition
has now been open about one-third Of
It's ninth season and the attendance up
to date is by far the best on record.
Gilmore's magnificent band of 100
pieces is giving four concerts daily,
and although there are 1900 seats in
the Music hall, vacant seat during
any portion of any one of the concerts
is,very unusual. The general features Of
the Exposition arc voted by visitors from
all parts of the country, as well as from
Europe, as remarkable both for their
beauty and costliness and also for the
great variety, SO many attractions hav-
ing been rarely collected together in
one building. The exhibits of manu-
featured goods, of electrical and me-
chanical triumphs and high class
works of art are all first class; and
any one department would provide a
first class Exposition.
The next illumination will be given
on Thursday, Sept. 20, when all the
electrical panorama and pyrotechnic
displays viii be in full working order.
The carnival will be at its height
at the opening of October, for
on the afternoon Of Oct. the
Yelled Prophet will arrive by boat and
be received by strong military guard.
Heretofore the Yelled Prophet has ar
rived secretly and has not been seen

excitement, confusion and pandemo-

forth a peal of thunder and the wild
race began. Six thousand people made
the race from west OF VI Reno. as many
from Kingfisher, 1000 from the line OF
the Wichita reservation west OF MineO,
5000 from Rover, as many from Hen
nessey aud about as many as all OF these

down in it and there would still remain
room for four Districts OF Columbia.
A terrible riot occurred In front of
the Oklahoma City land Office at the
hour of opening today, and number
of people were badly injured. At II
o'clock Register Leach announced that
no lines would be recognized. and the
first person to get in the door would
have the first filing and others in sue
cession as they arrived. This precpi-
tated Wild rush. and in few moments
hundreds OF men and women were en-
gagged in disgraceful scramble, fight
ing, pulling, trampling on eacn other,
and for a time it seemed as though
many would be killed. One man was
struck on the head with revolver and
badly injured, but he remained In the
ring and got the eleventh filing. He had
been third in the line, but sold his place
for $3.50 this morning.

crush. and, by the aid OF two friends,
kept well to the front aud succeeded in
getting a filing on the quarter section
adjoining Arapahoe, the county seat OF
G. county on the north. Her experience
in the crush was a terrible one. On
every side were men pulling, hauling.
swearing and striking, and nobody was
respected. She was pulled and pushed
and crowded until almost ready TO faint,
but escaped with no injury.

A RUNNING BATTLE.
Exciting Chase and Capture of a
Murderer.

QUINCY, ILL.,, April 10. - Charles
Aaron, OF Cliola township, near this
city, was brutally murdered this morn
ing by a negro doctor named Smith.
alias Jamison, who had been attending
his mother for cancer. Aaron had agreed
to give him $500 for curing her. This
morning, after breakfast, JamiSon de-
manded his money. Aaron refused,
saying his mother was not yet cured,
when Jamison pulled A Colt revolver
and shot hlm in the head, causing death
within few moments. JamisOn then
pointed the revolver at Aaron's father
and made him sign a check
for $500, grabbed his valise ana
started down the railroad track
for Quincy. The neighbors were
called and in few moments half
dozen were following him down the
track with shot guns. Jamison fired at
them steadily and with the utmost cool
ness. When his revolver was emptied
he would sit down on the bank and
deliberately load it. The pursuers were
afraid to venture within range of his
pistol. After he had gone three miles,
a deputy sheriff appeared with Win
chester rifle and shot the murderer in
the hip and through the fingers of his
left hand. Then, as he could no longer
use his hand to load his revolver, he
threw it down and surrendered.
