enter the jail, but it was thought it
would not be made before night.
The crowd was not composed Of
country people alone. The town.
people had helped to swell the
crowd, and it was every moment
growing larger and more determin-
ed, Just before 2 o'clock DR..
Davis, from the neighborhood Of
Goodlettsville, made a speech to
the crowd on the square, and at the
close proposed the movement on
the Jail. 1t was evident that they
were determined to renew the at
tack on the Jail, but when ques-
toned if they would wait until
nightfall to accomplish their object
they said they would rather not an
-swer, but they would surely hang
Eph. sooner or later.
Before, noon fully 5000 people
had assembled in the vicinity Of the
public square. They came from
twenty towns and were sworn to
lynch Eph. Grizzard, and Chief OF
Police Clack, and Police Sergeant
Davis, who shot the two men the
night before. Every man had in
structions to be ready at a given
signal.
During the morning merchant
of Goodlettsville mounted box,
and after describing the awful out.
RACES Of the girls, which brought
tears into the eyes of thousands,
told them to be ready. Men sob
bedsand frenzied cries went up, but
the leaders prevailed on them tc
wait for reinforcements.
The crowd was soon swelled to
10000 by sympathizing citizens Of
Nashville.
At.noon Governor Buchanan is
sued proclamation requesting the
mob to dispense, and pledging him
self to sec that justice was done
This was hooted and jeered at.
Then an attempt was made t.
smuggle Eph. Grizzard away, anC
he was dressed as a woman, but
rumor Of this reached the crow(
on the outside, and then the GROVE
of determined men rushed to tn,
jail. An entrance was then made
The outer gate and first door hat

the night before, and soon a com
mittee Of the mob was ON the in
side. They seized the jailer, go
Rhis keys, and soon had the negr

brute the mob and spectators burs
forth intoan exultant cry. Aroun

TEN THOUSAND DESTROYED.

Frightful Loss OF Life on the Island Oh
Sangier-The Gunong Aroo Volcano
Erupts and Wipes Out Whole Section
OF the Country.
VICTORIA, B. G, August 1.-The steamer
Empress of India, just arrived from JAPAN
brings additional details OF the disastrous
volcanic eruption of Great Sangier Island.
Without any warning signal. without any
sign whatever Of impending disturbance,
Gunong Aroo volcano blazed fourth on June
z, and within "a hours the whole OF the
prosperous surrounding country was devas-
tated.
The loss of life is something frightful,
but no accurate estimate of it can be made.
Some place it as high as 10000. The cap
tain of the ship which took assistance to the
sufferers says that 10000 is not too high
figure as an estimate of the number of dead.
A thousand bodies have been picked up on
the shore and many were found floating in
the sea. The, whole island is completely
devastated, and although the violent erup-
tion has ceased, volumes of smoke are arls-
ing, accompanied by steam and ashes.
The awful devastation began at o'clock
BILE rumble, a column of ruddy flame shot up
from the crater as high in the heavens as
the eye could reach, and Immediately after
ward hot ashes were falling like snowfakes
over the whole country. Dust was flying
in all directions, and from the time of the
first explosion until o'clock that evening
fierce volumes of fame and smoke and
showers of large stones were belched forth,
followed by rain, which fell in torrents.
The report of the first explosion was
heard at Ternate, Gorontalo and Mandanao,
which are respectively 210, 240 and 216
mile distant The lava streams were con-
fined to the northern slopes of the mount
ain. In the Toboekan district not a single
village remains, while thousands Of the in
habitants ere killed in the overflow.
The village of Lorena, on the south side
of the mountain, protected by a ridge Of
hills, some of them ], 300 feet high, is COW
cred with ashes. Many of the houses were
crushed in by the weight of ashes, dust and
stones. Cocoanut plantations on both sides
of Lorena Bay are destroyed, but in the
town itself there was comparatively little
loss of life To the westward Of the town,
after passing the foot of the ridge, the
scene is one of complete desolation and de-
vastation

THE RUSH TO DENVER,

knights Tempiar VIII Leave Here Next
Friday Afternoon.
S. C. Milbourne, travelling passenger agent
of the Union Pacific road, states that the
lines have finally agreed on a rate of S21 35
from Pittsburg to Denver and return for
the knights Templsr. The original rate
was S36 before the Santa Fe made tho re-
duction- The fare is based on 50 35 from
Pittsburg to Chicago and $12 from the
Windy City to Denver. The local Knights
intend to travel in great style and the roads
are making big preparations for them. The
tickets will go on sale tomorrow.
The Union Pacific road captured the bulk
of the business from this territory. The
knights will start next Friday afternoon.
Mr.. Milbourne will accompany the ALLIE
gheny Commandery. His line has agreed
to make a rate of one fare for all side trips
taken between the Missouri river line and
points in Colorado, Utah, Wyoming and
will travel in five Pullman cars, and Mr.
Milbourne was instructed not stint the CON-
missary. The Knights and their ladies will
live on the fat of the land This command
cry has issued neat itinerary of the jour-
ney, giving all the points of interest in
Colorado and how they can be reached. The
tickets for the side trips are good for 80
days from the date of sale between August
1 to 81
The Union Pacific will also have the
Cyrene Commandery from Wheeling, two
cars; the Warren Commandery, three cars;
Ascalon Commandery, Allegheny, two cars,
and the knights from Salem. Mr.. Mil
bourne will be located in Denver during
the encampment to furnish all information
needed. Parties headed by George Hough-
ton and W. W. Colville will take an ex-
tensive trip on the coast before returning.

aroused and the stock of champagne in
creased accordingly. After awhile the
French officer became 80 happy that ne oio
not realize fully everything that happened
He was escorted back to his quarters on the
war ship, an6 his friends were in no hurry
to leave him. Before they came away they
had secured copies Of his documents, whlcn
are to-day in the possession of the navy
Department, but the Frenchman himself
never knew they were made and the secret
became harmless with the lapse of time.
A Case Similar to Grants.
Hardly q word has been said in Eastern
papers about ex-senator Newton Booth, OF
California, who died under painful circum-
stances in San Francisco q few days ago.
He had cancer in his mouth which de-
stroyed the integuments of his tongue SO
that he finally choked to death I remem'
ber when he entered the United States SEN
ate bringing q brilliant reputation as an
orator from the Pacific coast, which.
by the way, was never Justlhed
by any speech which he ever
made in the Senate. He was the original
California mugwump and owed his proml-
nence to bold cry which he raised against
the corporate tyrants at the Golden Gate.
But he turned out to be pretty good Re-
publican with no great strength at home, SO
that he only remained in Congress for one
term of six years
He was q genial man, who had cultivated
his mind while making a modest fortune in
business-I think he was a wholesale
grocer, like AIdrich, of Rhode Island. He
was an inveterate smoker, and probably the
cancer in the mouth was due to the e1ces.
sive indulgence in the weed. His case was
very like that of General Grant Booth
was a widower and man of quiet and re.
fined habits He seemed to lack energy
and never to have been really politician.
His one blast against the millionaires made
him Senator, but the hold of the pluto.
Gratis on the State was not shaken, and 1t ii
Kearney had their brief day, but the
millionaires 60 on forever.
Real Ruins for America.
1t is said that the United States have NJ
ruins, but this is far from being true. A
few years ago the great country house o.
Hon. William Walter Phelps on his estate
in New Jersey was burned. I mentioned
the matter to Mr.. Phelps when saw hin
in Berlin last autumn and asked him if hs
would rebuild it He said he would not
that he had another residence on his estate
that answered his requirements, and the
walls of the burned buildings over which
the vines were now clambering, made sucf
an imposing and attractive ruin that he in.
tended to allow them to remain in that con.
dition.
Mr.. Phelps was already supplied with {
very satisfactory pedigree, and to his ample
endowment of ancestors he now adds {
"ruin" worthy of the banks of the Rhine
Thus it appears that America is catching
up with the Old World in all those respects
in which we have been supposed to be at I
permanent disadvantage

Wodnd Up Its Affairs.

The Metropolitan Building and Loan
Association, of Lawrenceville, of which
John Loresch is President, Robert Oster-
maier Secretary, and George Wehrle
Treasurer, wound up the affairs of the
association last evening. The stockholders
presented Mr.. Loresch, who has been
President ever since its organization, with
a beautiful tea set and water pitcher. D.

Captain Borup, of the Ordnance Depart
ment of the army, is young officer of ex-
ceedingly good address and polished man
ners, above the medium in height, a careful
dresser, and in all respects one of the most
attractive young gentlemen in the military
service of the United States. While he
was in Paris . venal clerk named Grenier
offered to him tor sale the plans of the new
French Notifications at Toulon. Afterward
the clerk declared to the French authorities
that Borup had bought them of him, There
upon the French Government requested
that Borup be recalled. 1t does not appear
that any italian or German attaches recall
has been asked for. although they, too, are
said to have obtained these valua BILE plans
for their governments .
This affair is another illustration that
there are q good many acts men do in which
the only sin consists in being found out
Some years ago while French warship was
at Newport one of the officers while highly
refreshed" with champagne, which our
officers stationed there had furnished to
him, became confidential and told them of
some very important plans which
ne had in his possession on
his ship. Yankee curiosity was
