Proved a Mistrial.

Special to the Arkansas Gazette.
MAGNOLIA, ARK, August 25.-The
suit for SANDER mentioned in your
specials recently, resulted in mistrial
here to-day. The jury stood eight for
conviction. Every feature of the case
has been watched with much interest
on account of the prominence of all
parties in the suit. The suit was
brought in the name of this State
against DR.. j. w. Perdue, charging
him with makining slanderous re-
marks against Miss Willie Sorrells,
Both parties are residents of Ste
phens. The young lady was in court
throughout the trial, and impressed
all with her modest and refined man
ner. She is pretty, sweet tempered
in appearance, and surely steeled
is the heart that could prompt
an illmeaning remark about
her. She is a relative Of Judge Sor-
rells, of Pine Bluff. This is the second
mistrial of the case. The former
jury stood eleven for conviction. Per-
due gave bond and the case goes over
to the next term Of court.

A TERRIBLE SENTENCE.

The victim of the Indians maltreat-
ment is Oliver White, who was travel
ing overland with horse and wagon.
A band of Osages, who had been par
ticipating in the ghost dance recently
near their reservation, came upon him
at night, dragged him from his wagon,
bound him hand and foot and tied
him to an upright post. Some of the
band were for torturing him with
knives, but the Chief finally prevailed
upon them to go to no extreme
measures. The Indians built great
fire near the stake and executed n
dance around it.Every once in while
one of them would approach White,
grasp lock of his hair andcut it from
his head with a bowie knife. White
did not suffer much physically but his
mental torture was terrible.
The Indians, after they had cut off
all his hair, stripped him of his clothes,
and threw them into the fire. Then
those members of the band who had
posses ,ed themselves &C locks of his
hair dropped them one by one upon
the fire, ali the time keeping up their
dancing and dreadful shouting.

ANOTHER STRIKE.
Two Hundred Mill Workers at Law
renceville, Pa, Quit Work.

PITTsBURa, PA, Aug, 1h.-Over 200
men in the Twenty-ninth Street Car
negie Mills, Lawrenceville, quit work
to-day, in sympathy with the locked
out men. Ever since the strike began
the forge and bumper departments at
the Lower Mill have been in opera
ton. Part of the time double turn
was run in these departments. The
skilled men who went out this morn
ing do not belong TO any union but
are fully in sympathy with the strik-
ers. They have not been required to
work any of the steel or iron made by
the non-union men, and had no reas-
enable opportunity to show their atti-
tude in the late trouble until yester-
day. After the men came out the boss
Immediately posted notices through
out the mill to the effect that they were
obliged to shut down on account Of
no work for the men. AT the Thirty
third street mill this morning all de-
partments were running full. Several
watchmen and employees of the Car
negie Company, principally clerks who
have been observed at times talking
to reporters and strikers, have been
discharged.

Trouble Over Cattle.

GUTHRIE, 0. T. Aug. 25.-When
the soldiers were ordered to the Cher
okee Strip to drive out cattle, Gov
ernor Seay notified every sheriff in
Oklahoma not to allow any cattle to
be driven through his county, an arm
ed force of deputies was stationed all
along the line. Notwithstanding,
some cattlemen attempted to drive
cattle through the western counties,
and the sheriff Of Mason county tele-
graphs the governor that he has taken
possession of $500 head Texas steers
and is after more. What he will do
with them is uncertain, unless he ac-
ceeds to the demand of the settlers
and shoots them. 1t is feared there
will be serious trouble over the mat
ter.

ATTEMPTED TRAIN ROBBERY.
Quick Work in Capture, Trial and
Conviction of the Gang.

BELToN, TEX, Aug. 24.-Old Bell
county has broken the record in the
trial and conviction of would-be train
robbers. Within the last thirty-six
hours Ben Ward, Win Ward, Charles
b. Franklin, alias Dead-Eye-Dick, and
Henry Russell, alias SEVENTH, have
been tried on charge of conspiracy
to rob, and given five years each.
And Ben Ward, Charles Ward, Will
Ward and Chas. B. Franklin, alias
Dead-Eye-Dick, have been tried on
charge of assault to rob and given
three years each. There was sever
ance and separate trial In each case.
The charge of assault to murder,
which was also pending against these
parties, was dismissed. The cases
against O. p. Buchanan, one of the
parties who was indicted with the
above, were dismissed, he having
turned States evidence and it being
mainly through his testimony that
convictions were secured.
Perhaps he had hoped to go free,
but if SO he is disappointed, for there
is warrant here from the United
States commissioner at Waco for the
whole bunch of them. The charge is
"feloniously conspiring to reb the
mail of the United States In addi-
ton to this there is warrant from
the Justices court of Waco for Buch-
anan and Russell on charge of
burglary.
1t is doubtful if the records of any
of the courts of the United States can
show such prompt arrests, trials and
conviction of train robbers as in the
above cases. The robberies were
attempted about the middle of last
May and in three months they are all
tried and convicted.

presumably for the purpose of pro-
tecting convicts. 4 posse was organ
lied Immediately on receipt of the
telegram. Before the sheriff and
men left the court house second tel
egram was received to the effect that
all was quiet for last night, and that

been growing sore over the convict
lease system, which is now in vogue
throughout the Birmingham district,
and trouble has been anticipated.

Strict Quarantine Against Cholera.

WASHINGTON, Aug. PA dispatch
was received at the State Department
to-day from the United States consul
at Hamburg, which says: "Hamburg
emigrants must be regarded as coming
from the cholera infected district"
The Department has more reassuring
news from Havre. Consul Williams
telegraphed that the Paris and Havre
medical experts have had conference
and admit the presence of local chol-
era. They deny, however, that 1t is
Asiatic cholera. The disease is not
spreading, and the alarp, is subsiding.
The Treasury Department is following
up the precautions heretofore adopted
and will use all means at hand to keep
cholera out of the country. Assistant
Secretary Spaulding has communicate
ed with DR.. Claws, attorney for the va
rious steamship companies, and ex-
pressed to him the hope that the
Treasury Department would have the
cooperation Of the companies in the
disinfection of emigrants' effects. DIR.
Claws, in reply, says the steamship
lines are fully impressed with the grav-
ity and nothing will be omitted on
their part.

questionable character, who at one
time was the wife of respectable cit
izen of this place, was taken from her
house in the suburbs of this place and

whipped by four white men. This

tellieu, and District Attorney Brown
ward is holding the preliminary trial
before Justice Pattin. The act is
universally condemned and the guilty
parties will be severely punished. The

tial, and if they prove innocent, every
effort will be made to find the guilty
ones.

Deafness Cant be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is anly one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed con-
dition of the muscous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube
gets infamed you have rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when
1t is entirely closed, deafness is the
result, and unless the Inflammation
can be taken out, and this tube re-
stored to its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever. Nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an infamed con-
dition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give one hundred dollars
for any case of deafness Caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by TAX

The ThornwelI Orphanagc.

This institution has had O remarkable
history. Beginning with half dollar,
the gift of an orphan, it has developed into
a little village Of cottages for orphans,
with buildings for school.work, technical
training and general caro-.
There are l20 persons residing in it; Or
phans from ten different States (from
Massachusetts to Texas. from Michigan
to Florida) and eight different denomins.
tions. They are gathered together to be
cared for and educated. Every child is
given en excellent business education and
is taught trade. None are received but
needy and deserving orphans.
The expense Of the Institution this year
was about $4,000; this was given in
small sums by thousands Of individuals.
Dependence is placed for this sum, annu-
ally needed, on God alone, and on those
whom he prompts to give. The Orphan
age was founded by Presbyterians, bnt not
one-third Of the children came from that
denomination, and gifts are constantly
being received from all manner of people
and all parts of the world. Rev. DR.. ia
cobs is the head of the Institution.
Thanksgiving Day is coming 1t is a
good time to remember the orphans. If
you wish to have a share in this good
work, you can send your gift addressed
simply to "Thornwell Orphanage, Clin-
ton, 8. c." If it had not been for just
such gifts as you will send, this school for
orphans never could have been built and
were they to cease, it would needs close
Immediately. 1t has q nice array of
buildings, but every building means just
that many more mouths to feed.

A Farewell. Letter,

EDITORS INTELLIGENCER: By reason
of the law OF my Church, my stay in An
derson draws to close. -Four pleasant
and profitable years I have spent here.
The place is moro OF home to me than
any other on earth. Ny sympathies and
my interests are more fully identified
with this community than with any other
The joys and sorrows of the people of An
derson are mine in peculiar sense.
I desire to thank the people for their
uniform kindness to me and mine. They
have given mo far beyond my deserts.
My association with the other denomina-
tions has been exceedingly pleasant to me.
I can not now recall anything which in
tue least has marred the pleasure of my
intercourse with them. I am indebted to
them for every courtesy and for the in
terchange of the heartiest Christian fell
lowship. While there are ties that pecul-
iarly attach me to my own denomination,
yet within my bosom's core shall live the
godlv men and women of the other
Churches. I do try to cultivate that spirit
which recognizes and claims that higher
unity which exists over and above minor
diversities. I believe the day of denomi-
national strife is happily passed. Occa-
sionally there is found fossilized speci-
men Of the ugly past, who has no adequate
conception Of the gospel, and thinks to all.
vance it by vituperation and abuse Of
those who differ with him. I believe in
denominations provoking one another
but unto love and good works"
Let me thank you, Messrs. Editors, for
the many courtesies and kindnesses
shown me through the columns of the IN
TBLLIaENcER, and for personal kindness
es, and especially one-the free subscrip-
ton of your paper during my stay. May
the INTELLIGENCER ever prosper, and
may long life aud success attend it's Edi-
tors.
Now, let me bespeak for my successor
the same treatment at the hands of the
people which has been given me, which
I know you will not be slow to give. And
may he contribute vastly more to the
well-being Of the community than
Yours affectionately,
CHAs. e. SMITH,
