A RACE WAR.
One Man Fatally Iniurcd-A
Storm of Indignation.

PApucAII, Kyu July l2.-Shortly after
8 o'clock last evening while the city coun-
Gil was in session, the chief Of police an
nounced that report had just reached
him that two or three hundred negroes
armed with Winchester rifles, had con,
srcgated in the vicinity of the Jail, pre-.
pared for an attack.
The council at once adjourned. The
mayor at once sent despatch to the
governor asking him to order out COM
pany of the state guard. The sheriff at
once gathered posse composed of 80
or 10 men armed with shot guns and re-
volyers.
The first cause Of the uprising is the
hanging of Charles Hill, negro who
made an assault upon Lidia Star. The
immediate cause of the outbreak, as
stated by negro last night, is the arrest
of a negro man named Thomas Burgess.
At 1880 O'Clock the marshal and
mayor returned to the Jail and dispersed
the squads of negroes under promise
that no violence should be done the pris-
oncr in Jail. The marshal addressed the
crowd of white people and told them to
go to their homes as the negroes were
dispensing and violence need not now he
feared. This the people began to do, and
in few minutes the crowd was dispersed
leaving in charge the militia and about
40 armed citizens.
At exactly II o'clock band of 10 lie
groes suddenly appeared and opened fire
upon the men collected at the Jail. At th'
| first fire Elmer Edwards. young man
fell, shot through the abdomen. He i:

company, and a harnessmaker by trade
The fire was returned by the militia ant
armed citizens and the negroes beat re
treat. The militia also retired in disorder
back of the court house where they KEEP
up firing until the negroes had disap
peared down the street, retreating bacl
to the Odd Fellows lodge, which hat
been their chief headquarters during tn
night.
The police have arrested over 80 lie
grocS for carrying arms and they ar
guarded to prevent any further attcmp
to release them.
The mortal wounding of young Et
wards has aroused a storm of lndigif
ton that is kept from breaking out wit
difficulty and an attempt to avengc h
untimcly death is almost certain to |
made. Excitement runs high and at
O'Clock this morning the streets wei
still filled with people.

A THIRD PARTY MEETING
ASSEMRI,AGE AT TIkG COURT
HOUSE LAST NIGHT
A Very Small Attendance for the
Ratification of the Third Part3
NOIminatIOMs-T Two speeches.

Forty men were sitting in the court
house last night about 0 O'Clock, when
Col. Thos. Il. Long, chief marshals Of
the third party hosts, called the third
party ratification meeting to order.
Two Of this party were known to be
third party advocates-Col. Long and
Mai W. ii. Malone-but rs for the re-
mainder, they were members of the demo-
cratic and republican faiths, so far as
known.
In calling the meeting to order Col.
Long asked the crowd to gather as near
the speakers stand as possible as he
was hoarse and could not speak very
loud.
The crowd did as requested and Col.
Long began his talk, reviewing the work
of the late Omaha convention. The
Colonel said that if the news of the riots
at Homestead Pa, had been received by
| the convention before it adjourned it
would have gone in a body to Home.
stead and assisted in the protection of
the laborers in the Carnegie mills.
The members of the convention
heard of the riots, Col. Long said,
at Kansas City, and he had never seen
suci, an exhibition of feeling in his life.
| "If the democrats of the country had
fulfilled their promises to the people,
| said Col. Long, there would never have
been third party. They haven't pass
ed the free coinage bill nor repealed the

held in the court house the hall would

"The peoples party convention has
closed the chasm of sectionalism by nom
mating democrat for president and ar
ex-confederate for vicc-president. 1t is
the first convention to declare for an
eight hour working day. II Gresham had
been in Omaha he could not have been
nominated because he did not stand
squarely on the demands of the peoples
party.
"lf the peoples party movement con
tinues to grow us it has done lately We
will put our man III the presidential
chair, and there will be no danger o
throwing the election into the senate.
Don't think the peoples party don't
amount to anything because some of th'
national bank men have gone arounc
town and said Don't 80 to the meeting
tonight--lct's kill the peoples party

Col Long closed his address by reading
a'pocm on the death of the late leader o
the peoples party, Col. l. l.. Polk.
He read the following which hcwantct

( adoption:

THE GALA WEEK OPENS
FIRST DAY OF ASHEYILLE'S FES-
tai SEASON.
TIE SHOTGUN AND RIFLE
CONTESTS,
WHAT MAY HE I;X7I.ET1ID
TOMORROW.



The big festival, that is TO show out
sidcrs and many people at home just
what the Queen City of the Mountains
can do in the way of furnishing amuse-
ments for the people who come within
her borders, began today.
Ashcvile has had possibly more than
her share of rain within the past week
or SO, and everybody has been making
weather guesses and hoping with all
their hearts that the wetncss would let
up for just one week.
The people came in, though, and when
they came up town this morning the sun
was shining its brightest and everything
pointed to pleasant dav.
Up to 0 o'clock, at which time the first
attraction, the big shoot, began, the
crowds stood around the square spccu-
lating on the result of the contests, list
ening to the inspiring band music and
admiring the city's Gala Week style in
general.
L liz way III WHICH hSllSNlllS
firms have gone into decorating their
buildings today has been caution. The
rain yesterday afternoon stopped the
work temporarily. Today has been
fair, however, with the exception of Il
fog this morning, and artistic hands have
been busy putting Gala Week clothes on
the buildings.
Probably the most elaborate decora-
tions are those on the Swannanoa hotel.
1t is almost solid mass of bunting
Powell & Sndcr's, a. Nj. Fields and the
city hall are also decorated i'll fine style
and THE CITIZEN Office has something
worth looking at. But this by no means
comprises the list of buildings in holiday
attire. The merchants have nearly al
gone in with the right spirit and 10 one
can complain of the way they have be
gun the Week. They have shown that
they want the festival to be success
and it is and will continue to be!

DID HE TRY
TO COMMIT SUICIDE?

The train which leaves the Ashevile
depot at 3:05 was rounding the bend
yesterday when a man rushed to the
platform and jumped off. His rash
act created great excitement among
the other passengers-they all thought it
was a case of suicide. Ladies tainted,
men rushed to the platform expecting to
sec his mangled form upon the track,
but the fact was he had forgotten to put
his bottle of "Buncombe Pills" in his
satchel and would not start on his jour
ney without them. Hetook great chances,
but he might have taken greater.
