Gen. Schofield Explains.

WASHINGTON. July 14.-Telegrama re-
ceived by Maj. Gen. Schofeld this after
noon, show that the labor troubles in the
Gear d'AleLe Q mining country are at an
end for the present. The rioters have dis
persed and the state authorities, aided BY
federal t. oops are in full possession Of the
field. Gen. Schobeld said tonight that
people who are complaining because SOL
diers had not arrested rioters had a very
improper conception of the position of
troops in the matter. He explained that
they were orderea there merely to support
the civil authorities in the restoration OF
order and were acting altogether under the
orders of the governor of the state. They
had no independent functions whatever,
and absolutely nothing to do with any dis
orders that may have occurred before their
arrival. 1t is the duty of civil authorities
to enforce the law. and all the troops could
do was to protect them in 80 doing.

WASHINGTON. July H.-Bitter complaints
have been received by the Idaho senators
here from representative mine owners in
the Cnur dAlene region respecting the con-
duct of the military in the disturbed dis
trict. They say the troops were held at a
point twelve miles from the scene of the
rioting until the best part of the property
had been destroyed. A number of non
union men, helpless and unarmed. were
killed and the remainder driven from the
mills out Of the country, directly past the
soldiers who had been sent there to prot ect
them. The senators have been requested
to have Gen. Schotield request Gen. Carlin
to surround the scene of trouble and pre-
vent the escape of any of the miners who
participated in the rioting and deliver the
guilty men to legal authorities. In con-

Committee on Resolutions Presents
Its Full Report to the Min
ing Congress.
Majority and Minority Views or
the Question of Free Silver
Coinage.
MasterIy Presentation by Patterson, o.
Colorado. OF His Convlctions~-EepIy
by smalley, Of Minnesota.

The business of the mining congress- yes
terday did not begin until the afternoon.
This was not because the delegates were
not on hand, but was due TO the fact that
the committee ON resolutions devoted the
entire morning to the business before it.
1t was recognized that the declaration of
principles of the coug ess is the most i'm
portant work it has to perform, and there
WAS Il strong desire to get them out of the
way before other topics we're taken up for
discussion. Just befote the noon recess a
letter WAS read from Hon. John Doniphan.
OF Missouri by Secretary Brown, that
aroused considerable enthusiasm.
Those who failed to attend the afternoon
session missed the most interesting session
of the congress up to date. Mrs. P. Meadow
was to have spoken in tho interest Of the
Montana exhibit at the Worlds fair, but q
cold followed by hoarseness prevented. A
large number of ladies we're present. in ex-
pectation of listening to an address by Mrs.
Meadow, and but few of them left after the
chair announced she would not talk, because
it had become generally known that
some of the orators in the congress would
talk and they remained to listen. The first
lands had called the congress to order was
the submission OF the report of the commit
toe on resolutions. w. A. Clark, of Mon
tana. presented the majority report. and E.
V. 6malley, of Minnesota, that OF the mi.
nority. The divergence was on the
silver plank. and the majority chose
Thomas NJ. Patterson, of Colorado. as
their champion. When the celebrated son
of Colorado advanced to the front of the
stage he was the recipient of hearty vel
come. He began his speech in quiet
though distinct voice, talking very slowly.
Soon the wolds came faster. the gestures
became more frequent and he began to
move few feet back and forth on the
stage. Every eye in the audience
was upon him and every ear was
taking in what he said. Frequently he was
| interrupted by bursts OF applause. The
| speech was an argument and again it was
not. He used few statistics bnt he told the
story of silver's rise and fall, and what
| its rehabilitation meant to the country at
large in such way as carried his audience
with him. When he had concluded there
was an outbreak of applause that lasted for
several minutes.
| 4. V. Smalley, who followed M. Patter-
son, may not be- an orator but he is
slayer, and was not afraid to stand bv his
convictions as party man. He realized
| that he had hard fight. but he went at it
just as boldly as though he had the major
| lty with hun. The audience appreciated
his pluck. laughed just little at first. then
quietly listened. and later gave him hearty
applause.
Hart, of California followed Smalley,
presenting new silver plank. The session
continued until almost six O. o'clock, when an
adjournment was had till $3.50 this morning.

One Child's Dream.

Harriet Martinean relates that, of her
many childish fancies, perhaps none
was so terrible as a dream she had at
four years Old Il dreamed" she saws,
that we children were taking walk
with our nursemaid. Out of the public
house there came a stag with prodigious
antlers. Passing the pump. it crossed
the road to us and made a polite bow.
with its head on one side, and with a
scrape Of one foot; after which it pointed
with its foot to the public house, and
spoke to me, inviting me in. The maid
declined, and turned to go home Then
came the terrible part.
by the time we were at our own door
it was dusk, and we went up the steps
in the dark; but in the kitchen it was
bright sunshine My mother was stand
ing at the dresser, breaking sugar, and
she lifted me up and set me in the sun,
and gave me bit Of sugar. Such was
the dream which froze me with horror!
Who shall say why?" concludes the mar
rator, looking back from her strong
minded maturity to that wildly remem-
bered childish dream, and utterly I'M
able to understand what the fright was
about. "-Argosy.

Discouraging the Use of Tobacco.

Professor Smith, formerly of Bowdoin
college, did not like to have the students
chew tobacco during recitations and
took effectual means to break up the
practice A boy who was called upon
to recite one day, not expecting to be
pulled" as the saying goes, on the next
day in succession, would go into the
class and chew tobacco during the hour.
Whenever "Cosine" noted this he was
morally certain to ask that student a
few questions. and by keeping him up
fifteen minutes or so would manage to
put him in position where he would
either have to swallow copious amount
Of tobacco or else choke. Such vigorous
treatment had beneficial effect. Lew

viii Make a Strong Bid for Andrew Fee

" IL 81 ctAOhS ASkNA AOF andrew re-

SHELLMAN, April Pot was freely
discussed here to-day on the streets by
some of the most influential citizens that
Shellman would give $1,000 to have An
drew Female College located here, and
some of them went so far as to say that
they would give $1,000, if necessary, to
get it. At this rate Andrew would nave
a fffteen-thousand-do dollar building, in
Guiding the $4,000 insurance money.
AS beautiful as the old site at Cuthbert
is, Shellman can furnish one to surpass
it. No one can object to the health of
the town, it's physical features, or society.
This spirit of enterprise among the PEG
pie will probably cause some discussion
during the next session of the district
conference, which convenes this week at
Brentwood. 1t will be remembered by
all that old Andrew belonged to the
South Georgia Conference before it was
burned.
