A Terrible Accident.


Last Friday Mrs. Sallie Gardner,
(nee Eubanks), was burned to
death while burning to pile of
trash in her yard. Mr.. Thomas
Gardner, her husband, was working
about hundred yards from the
house and reached his wife too
late to save her life. She fingered
few hours in agony, dying that
night. Mr.. Gardner was himself
severely burned in his efforts to
save his wife, and his hands are IN
such mutilated condition that he
has to be fed, and cannot even
take off his hat from his head.

Blind Tigers in Edgeheld.

Blind Tigers in Edgefleld.
The show folks who were here
last week posting bills asked Dis
penscr Davis if they could post
some of their bills on the dispen-
sary. He consented and they
pasted up a lot on the north side
of the building. On one of these
posters there is the picture of an
enormous tiger. The next morn
ing when Mr.. Davis went to open
the dispensary 10 and behold a
crowd of ants and conservatives
stood ct the door knocking and
waiting. And he said unto them {:
"What do ye here? Are ye not of
those that drink not from dispen-
saries, but prefer blind tigers?"
And they answered and said unto
him: "Yea. But is this not a
blind tige-?" Whereat Dispenser
Davis marvelled much. And they
took Dispensers Davis and Kearsey
out and showed them the pictures
OF the tigers in proof of their say
ing, whereupon they all fell down
prone upon the earth and wept for
Joy. Davis and Kearsey wept for
Joy because they had fooled the
ants by pasting the picture of a
tiger on the dispensary, and the
antis wept for Joy that they had
found, as they supposed, a blind
tiger.

wAsunoroS, D. O., July e.-Attornoy
General olney was to-day questioned as
10 bis views Of tho Altgeld letter TO the
President He said: ut is hardly
worth while to discusa at length the
false premises and tho Illogical non.
sequiturs ofthe Altgeld manifesto. AZ
d campaign platform it Is safe predic-
ton that the author will be found to be
the only person to stand upon II. The
coil Of Illinois Is the soil Of tho United
States, and for all United States pur-
poses the United States Is there with
its courts, its marshals aud Its troops,
mot by license or comfy, but as Of
right. Tbs paramount duty Of the
President of the United States 10 TO see
that the laws Of the United States are
faithfully executed, and in the discharge
Of that duty he 10 not hampered or
crippled by the necessity Of consulting
any chief Of police, mayor or even gov
ernor.
"The government realizes that II ls
unfortunate that troops from interior
posts arc not Immediately available,
owing to tho great distances to be
Travelled and the present difficulty 10
getting transportation. Nevertheless,
II found necessary, force will be maIs-
ed In Chicago sufficient 10 crush the
Btrike at single blow. There will be
no telDporlzing, no compromising with
the strikers. The railroad companies
must be permitted 10 conduct their
business unmolested II the entire army
Of the United States has to be brought
TO bear"
Gen. Miles will be supplied With all
necessary force to carry out his orders,
and II reinforcements are necessary they
will be forthcoming. Gen. schofeld
has such implicit confidence In the die.
cipline and splendid organization OF the
New York national guard that he would
feel safe in withdrawing all Of the
United States troops now stationed in
that state for service at Chicago.
The next move probably would be to
call out a considerable part OF the
militia OF New York and Pennsylvania
for service In Illinois, which may be
done under section [, 2s9 Of tho revised
statutes. It Is estimated that twonty
thousand Of these men, the pick Of the
militia Of the United States, can be
thrown into Chicago on short notice,
They would DO used purely for militia
duty, guarding property aud 60 on, thus
freeing tho regular troops for offensive
operators. The President, it is held
has full and complete authority undoi
the constitution aud statutes to call fol
sucli levics OF militia, and no may also
by virtue OF the constitution assume
command OF them, and also OF the
national guard OF Illinois, without
reference to any governor.

Chicago, July 6.-Two strikers were
killed outright aud others are thought
to have been seriously injured in riot
In tho Illinois Central yards at Kenslng-
ton to-day. The strikers began collect
Eng about tho tracks early, and by 10
o'clock 900 men wore rushing up and
down tho yards, overturning freight
cars aud blockading tho tracks In every
possible manner. A force OF about 100
United States deputy marshals and
Cook county deputies charged the mob
ct various places, driving small squads
OF mon from the yards. The strikers
forces were rapidly recruited. AT that
time tho Illinois Central milk train
eame slowly sieaming up from the south
attempting to enter the city. The mob
Immediately charged on it and In a trice
the engine was detached and the cars
overturned,
The crew had already fed, and tho
strikers mounting the engine carried 1t
back half a milo, whom opening tho
throttle they jumped from tho cab, and
the locomotive rushing forward at full
speed dashed into the wreck and tore
through tho derailed cars until 1t was
thrown upon It's side. The crowd
mounted tho wreck with exultant
cheers, and held high carnival until tho
force Of deputies prepared to charge.
AZ they came down on the run they
were met with shower Of stones and
coupling pins and, hating, opened fire.
For time the mob wayered as the
bullets cut through their ranks, and
then with howl they charged the little
Sofco Of deputies. which retroated to a
safe distance to await endorsements.
Police details were hurried TO tho scene,
and the rioters continued tho dcrailing
of cars while waiting for the expected
attack, carefully conceallnR tho dead
and injured men.

TO GOVERN HAWAII.
Home Features of the Proposed New Cor
stltution.

stitution.
Honolulu, May 10, via San Fran
cisco, May 22.-The constitutional
convention, the members of which were
elected on May 3, will meet on May 80.
The new constitution will be present.
ed to the convention for its approval.
Its main features are as follows:
The new government is to be called the Re-
public of Hawaii. The executive power will be
vested in the president. The executive coun-
ell Will consist OF five members instead Of four
Us at present, n minister Of health and educa-
tion being added. The upper house will con-
sist of fifteen senators. The qualification of a
senator will be that he shall be 30 years old,
shall be able to read and write the English
language, shall have resided in the islands
three years, shall own property of not less than
$4,000 in value and shall have an income OF
81 200 n year.
GThe assembly or lower house is TO consist OF
fifteen members, six from the island of Oahu
and three each from Hawaii, Maui and Kaul.
They will serve for two years only. member
of the assembly must be citizen of Hawaii
or a citizen Of any country which has treaty
relations with Hawaii, and have resided
In the islands for at least year. He
must be able to read and write the English or
Hawaiian language, except In case of those
who voted In the recent elections to whom this
requirement does not apply. Meetings OF the
legislature are to be held every two years.
Each session is to be limited to ninety days
and neither house can adjourn more than two
days without the consent Of the other The
president will have the power OF veto, which
can be overruled by two-thirds vote OF both
houses. II is the present intention to have
President Dole reapponted for term OF two
years, probably six, after which the offices will
be filed by regular elections 1t is more likely
that the present ministers will be retained for
year, as their appointment rests with the
president.
The new constitution can be amended or re-
vised in the ordinary way, but it is expressly
stipulated that amendments containing a
proposition for the establishment OF mon
archical form of government shall not be pre-
sented.
The claim is now made that when
the republic is declared the natives
will make the looxed-for uprising.
Royalist leaders say they are only re-
strained by the expressed wish of the
ex-queen, who still has great faith in
the United States.
