snatched from Death.

AsBuRY PARK, N. j., Aug 15.-
The very heavy surf was RESPONSE
BILE for several narrow escapes
from drowning yesterday. The
nearest apprach to a fatal accident
occurred to Mrs. Ada Battin, a
young, pretty and rich widow
from Philadelphia. She is an
expert swimmer, and went out
beyond the ropes where several
huge rollers broke over her in
quick succession, exhausting her
strength, and as she showed signs
of distress the bathing master
swum out with a rope to assist
her. Before he could reach her
she had gone down twice and was
just disappearing the third time
when he caught hold of her hair,
and with the help of two other
bathers succeeded in dragging her
to the shore. After some time she
was restored to consciousness, and
is fast recovering from the shock.

A bloody and serious: stabbing
afray occurred at II o'clock Mon
day night near shinall's; bar room
in Hamburg. Theo Plunkett, q
young white man of this city, was
dangerously stabbed in the left
temple by Cal Head, also white,
The cut was two inches long and
one inch deep, and the main
artery was severed. Plunkett was
protecting an old whiteman whom
Head was abusing and about to
assail, when he was murderously
attacked. There are fears of fatal
results from the effects of the
wounds, which may cause hem
orhage or lockjaw. Head was
arrested afterwards in Augusta
and is in jail here, and will be
held until a requisition is received
for his return to Carolina.

Shooting stars have given rise
to many strange beliefs. According
to a sentimental legend current
among the Lithuanian peasants,
there is attached to every born
child an invisible thread, which
thread ends in q star. AS soon as
the child dies the thread breaks
and the light of the star is quenched
as it falls to the earth. Another
version of the same legend says
that every one has his light in
heaven, which, when he dies, goes
out, and in its place a new one
makes its appearance, as men are
constantly being born.

-
hundred miners attacked the
stockade. The troops there had
been reinforced by the military
COM pany from Chattanooga, and
offered a stubborn resistance.
According to the best information
obtainable, twelve men were killed
and twenty wounded in the
engagement. After an hours
lighting. the military, being
greatly outnumbered, surrendered.
They were placed under guard,
and, with, the sconyicts, we're
marched toward Knoxville, The
wires are out and Communication
is unreliuble.
< A mass meeting of miners was
held at Coal Greek this morning,
at which It was resolved to q attack

Threats Of lynching Governor
Buchanan, ifhe ventures into this
section, are freely made. The
Governor is still waiting for

that he will leave Nashville.
The conyicts and soldiers from
OliyerSprings arrived at Knoxville
under heavy guard i.of miners.
They were at once placed in box
cars and started for Chattanooga.
Aaspecial from Hartman, dated
1910, says: "Maj. Chandler Of
the Knoxville troops has just ar
rived from the Oliver Springs, and
reports.'that the guards and soldiers
have been captured by 1900

TENNESSEE TO ARMs!"

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, August II.
Bulletins posted in the leading
buildings of the city tell the fol-
lowing story:
Tennessee to arms! Will you
allow your State to be disgracod?
The miners have captured sold
iers. Let volunteers come at once.
Lieutenant Royster is in the ar
1nory, ready to receive volunteers.
Bring any kind of weapon you may
have.
A thousand people stood in the
drizzling rain reading the
bulletins. Terror was added when
Col. Woolford wired from Harri-
man that the thirty Knoxville
soldiers had been captured on
route to Oliver Springs. Wires
were cut and no one could say
what fate they would meet. Mayor
Andrews wired Col. Woolford not
to leave Hartman with the boys
if he doubted his ability to put
up a skillful fight, and the
dispatch, together with the story
of the capture of the Knoxville
boys, caused instant demoraliza-
tion among the troops, and they
are badly phased.
1t is estimated that 5000 armed
miners are in the field in East
Tennessee, and the fight against
the troops is uneven, to say the
least. Governor Buchanan has
not offered to assist the little
knot of men from Chattanooga,
and no other State troops are even
thinking of going to the mine
district. Citizens are very indign7
ant at the Governors course, and
loud threats of lynching the Gov
ernor are freely made On the
streets.
A corporal's guard is trying to
corral the unwilling military and
get them into the armories, some
have been arrested, but very few
can be found. Some of the citizens
are forming companies toleave at
5 o'clock for the scene OF the
trouble and all kinds IF weapons
are being gathered for, use in the
fight, which is sure to come,

when fierce discomfort and whispered

when We reached the palace we found
the entire army just drawing into line
In front of it. There was all the thun.

which mans heart could wish. The
army had come to make demand on
the king, and was prepared to enforce it
with bullet and bayonet.
"Now pretty much everything on that
trip had been arranged for Pierrot's
amusement. So when he saw the glori-

glare Of the palace lamps he supposedit it
was there as part Of his fun. With
