HUNrIxerox, W. VA, Oct. 19.-The
town OF Dunlow, thirty miles in the in
terror, was the scene OF murder last
night. John Thompson was shot
through the heart by Mr.. Thornbury
in the latter's drug store. The affair
was the outcome of quarrel between
the families OF the two men. About 7
o'clock, while Thornbury was filling e
prescription, Thompson entered the
store and picking up tobacco cleaver
said, II am going to kill you" Thorn
bury pulled mis- gun and killed Thomp-
son instantly. The sentiment in Dun
low is that the killing was justifiable.
Thompson was one OF three brothers
who some years ago killed one OF the
famous McCoys, Of Logan county. All
three spent terms in the penitentiary.
John Thompson was considered dan.
gerous character. Thornbury is peace
able citizen and appointment Mason and
Odd Fellow. No arrests have been
made up to noon to-day.

Three Hundred ChIldren Fall With Tier

WEST WISsTED, CoNN., Oct. l9.-Eight
hundred pupils OF the public schools,
with principals and teachers, marched
through the streets and went to the rink
to practice chorus singing on national
airs for the big Columbus day cele-
bration. Temporary seats were erected
in the tiers to the height OF 10 feet to
hold one thousand children. They
we're being seated on the upper seats
and the first 400 had been seated, when
the five tops rows collapsed. Three
hundred children fell 10 the floor in a
heap and the wreck and their screams
caused panic among the others, who
escaped. None were fatally hurt. The
smallest children, those from five to
twelve years old, occupied the top seats,
which had evidently been carelessly
constructed. The community is excited
and indignant, and there have been
threats Of lynching carpenter Curtis,
while there are said to be many law
suits in store for him.

WAsnINoroN, D. c., Oct. l9.-Nervous
symptoms in Mrs. Harrison's case have
been moro pronounced than usual dur
ing the past three or four days. The
natural tendency OF the disease is to a
slow but steady decline and the gradual
loss OF vitality ia SO slight from day to
day that frequently hardly any change
in her condition is noticeable. While
tho hopelessness OF her case is con-
coded, her vitality is still so great that
regardless OF the possibility OF change
ior the better, there is no danger OF an
immediate crisis save for the always
possible appearance OF additional COM
plications. Her physician, DIR. Gard
ner, is authority for the statement that
she may linger for several weeks in her
present state and that no possible COM
phcation would terminate fatally in less
than forty-eight hours. kilograms were
received from indianapolis, Chicago
and New York this morning saying that
it was reported in those cities that Mrs.
Harrison was dead and Private Secre-
tary Halford was kept busy for an hour
or SO officially denying the reports.

course Of construction in the steinwaer-
der quarter of this city caved in this
morning, burying fourteen workmen.
The accident occurred without any
warning whatever, and the men at work
in that part of the sewer had no oppor-

Gangs OF men were at once set to work
to dig out their unfortunate fellow
workmen but their efforts are greatly
hampered by the heavy timbers that
lie in every direction in the fallen earth
and rock. 1t is believed that any ofthe
buried men are alive.

VERY RAD TASTE.

Democrats in Grafton Display Mrs. Cleve-

Special Dispatch to the HteRigencer.
GRAFTON, w. Va, Oct 19.-Josiah
Patterson, congressman from Tennes-
see, addressed a Democratic meet
ing here tonight. Preliminary to the
speaking there was a parade in which
few torches, small boys and band Of
music were unfortunately blended,
while an oil portrait of Mrs. Cleveland
was conspicuously carried in the pro.
cession.
The bad taste displayed in presenting
Mrs. Cleveland on canvas as special
feature OF political parade is an elo-
quent commentary in itself. The
speech OF Mr.. Patterson, like that Of all
the radical Democratic addresses here,
will help the Republican cause in Tay-

INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. l9.-The National
Colored Protective Association, which
has been in session the past two days,
to-day issued an address to the colored
voters OF the United States. 1t says
substantially: "since the mantle of
citizenship fell upon our shoulders the
Democratic party, born in in
iquity, has by divers means
sought to nullify every con-
stitutional provision which was
intended to secure us in the rights OF
citizenship. BY these methods free
ballot and fair count has become
hollow mockery. Life, liberty and
property, SO far as We are concerned,
arc taken from us without the process
OF law. In sections OF country un-
der Democratic domination the auction
block and slave pen have gone only to
give place to the midnight maurauder
and the red handed assassin, while the
fraud and corruption perpetratod on us
90 untouched by the hand of the law.
Without remedy in the courts our only
safe guard is the ballot 1t be-
hooves us, therefore, to use that
ballot wisely and well.
"The Republican party made us citt-
zens, and every effort OF that party has
been to protect us in that citizenship.
In fact it is now and ever has been the
friend OF the oppressed.
1--WE oppose the position OF the Dem
ocratic party on the currency question.
The Republican party is now, as it
always has been, in favor oil sound
currency. In view OF all these facts We
believe that the best interests not only
OF our race, but the whole nation pc
subserved by an adherence to and sup
port OF the Republican party"
