One Shot. Three Hanged.

V1oKsBURG, Miss, April p -Four
negroes have already paid the penalty
for the brutal assassination of Manager
Boyce, of the Baum plantation, in
Madison parish, Saturday. One was
shot Sunday. During the night mob
gathered at the jail at Tallahua and
forced open the door. Sam Slaughter,
Tom Claxton and Dave Hawkins were
led out and hanged to balustrade of
the court house. Their bodies were
hanging there this morning. Another
of the Claxtons and four of his pals are
still in the swamp. The river and all
avenues of escape, are closely guarded,
and the ultimate capture of the five men
is regarded as only question of time.
1t seems certain they will be lynched.

WHERE THEY ARE.

1se Different Sections of the Coxey
Commonweal Army.
Kelley's army, now the largest march
ing on to Washington, reached Walnut,
Ia, yesterday morning. There were %
companies and 953 men. Immediately
after they arrived row, developed into
real mutiny, broke out between the
Sacramento and San Francisco regi-
ments. Jealousy was the cause. The
upshot was the withdrawal of portion
of the Sacramento men because their
leader, Col. Speed, had been courtmar
tailed and reduced to the ranks. When
they reached Atlantic last evening there
were two distinct armies. It was stated
last night that Speed and his men would
attempt to capture train and leave
Kelley behind. Coxey rejoined his arr
my at Frederick, Md, the home of Bar
bara Freitchie, and last night he and
Brown addressed large meeting. Fry's
army is still in Terre Haute. There
was hitch between the army and the
railroad company. The men declare
they will walk no further. The New
England contingent has reached Provi-
dence, and will today march to Scituate.
Commander Clinton and his army of the
Schuylkil met cold reception at Elliott
City. Md. They were denied place to
pitch their tent and ordered to move on.
Tney passed the night at Ashton. In
Chicago RandalI's commonweal army is
having a boom. Collections are brisk
and recruits many. At Guthrie, o. T.,
several bands were organized. Because
of the refusal of the railroad companies
to furnish trains, they very sensibly de-
cided to remain at home. Denver peo-
pie have organized Coxey home re-
serve. Its object is to bottom the move
ment. Late last hight story was sent
out of the discovery of a plot to waylay
and assassinate Kelly. As it was dis
covered in time, it failed.

To Reduce the Wool Rates.

WASHINGTON, April 24.-Power today
introduced an amendment in the senate
to the tariff bill, re-enacting the provis-
ions of the Mckinley law as they apply
to wool, except that the rates are
changed. The amendment approves Of
duty of cents per pound on wool of
the frst-class, 8 cents on the second,
fourth, and third-class worth cents,
and cents on third-class, excepting 8
cents of value. This is reduction of
about one-third from the Mckinley bill,
and Power says his reasons for reducing
the rates are that he hopes to secure
democratic support for his amendment.

keAHsARaE.s CHAIN ARMoR.
How 1t Was Afterward Used to Protect q
German AIan-of-War.

NOW 1t WAS <AIke1War0 OSeU Co HEOCecI .
German Man-of-War.
The history of the Kearsarge has
been so many times told, says the New
York Herald, that it seems like ''tak-
ing owls to Athens to attempt to
say anything about her. There is
however, an item of history connected
with this famous vessel which, SO far
as I am aware, has never appeared in
print.
A number of years ago while stop
ping in a little mountain town in Ger
many 1 became acquainted with Chief
Engineer A. Gebhardsbauer, of the inn
perial German navy. He recalled to
me that when the Kearsarge fought
the Alabama off Cherbourg anchor
chains had been placed on both sides
of the Kearsarge in order to better
protect the boiler and engines from the
enelny's fire.
A long time after the battle. when
the Kearsarge was lying off the Azores
islands, the anchor chains which had
done such good service were delivered
over to the care of the United States
! consul at Fayal. They remained in
the consular store house until July,
1870.
AT this time, just at the outbreak of
the Franco-German war, the German
wooden frigate Arcona arrived at Ea-
yal. The Arcona was one of the old
type of wooden war vessels. Mr.. Geb-
hardsbauer, who was chief engineer of
the Arcona, was ordered by her COM
mander to rig up something to afford
protection for her engine in case the
Arcona should fall in with French
ship, it being the intention to proceed
to Germany ut once.
In a scare h for material in the store
house of Mr.. Dabney, the United States
consul, he found the old anchor chains
of the Kearsarge and Immediately se-
cured them They were placed on the
Arcona exactly as they had been on
the Kearsarge, and in a short time she
was ready and sailed for the Father
land
The Arcona met with neither adven-
ture nor trouble of, any kind on her
homeward voyage, but she remained in
service, and the chains were kept on
her until the close of the war. after
ward being turned over to the navy
yard at Kiel as old iron. They We're
still there in 1855, and several indents
made by the shot from the Alabama
could still be seen in them.
The log book of the Kearsarge does
not show that the chains were disposed
of as have stated. No mention what
ever is made of the disposition made
of them. Further. the records of the
state department contain nothing on
the subject.
The facts remain, nevertheless, and
now that the old ship has gone it
would seem highly proper that every
thing in the way of relies of her
should be in the possession of this gov
ernment. Portugal courteously re-
turned the gun Long Tom of the
brig Armstrong and Germany would
undoubtedly do the same with the
arrnor of the Kearsarge.

THEY STOLE A TRAIN.
Butte Industrials Outwit the Northern

ButCe Anuustr1aIs OutWlC the Northern
Pacific.
ST.. PAUL, April 24.-The Coxeyltes
broke into the Northern Pacific round
house last night, seized an engine and
train and started East at 40 miles an
hour. There are between 400 and 500
men in this army. They have been
camped at Butte, Mont, several days.
While the leaders were trying to arrange
for transportation the men concluded
that if they wanted train they must
take it. At midnight they reached Boze-
man, where they stopped till the break
of day, intending to resume their Jour-
ney at once. Northern Pacific officials
say there is nothing to stop them until
near Livingston, where a washout will
cause some delay.
The army were stopped at Livingston
by a cavern in a tunnel.

And when you hear that it cures so

But its only reasonable. AS a blood

Neal Dow as a FREEMAN.

When Neal Dow was chief of the
Portland volunteer fire department,
says the Boston Globe. some of his
men complained about the strictness
of his discipline. One of them appealed
to the mayor once, saying: '.Mr. Dow
is altogether too strict. At the fire
the other night he ordered me to go
between two buildings. and their
walls were likely to fall at any
moment wouldn't go.' ..And what
did Mr.. Dow do when you refused to

enough to go himself. .

The Bill Was Genuine.

In trial ia United States court where
young man had been indicted for passing ten
dollar counterfeit bill, the counsel for the latter
c.. A. Baldwin, objected to Gen. Strickland's
course in endeavOring to prove by business men
the fact that the bill in question was counter
felt but to no avail. Mr.. Baldwin substituted
a good bill for the counterfeit, which genuine
money Gen. Strickland then proved by three
business men to be the rankest kind Of counter
felt. ThereupOn Mr.. Baldwin vehemently de-
manded that attention be given to his objections
and Judge Dundy insisted that the district attOr-
ney send out for a bank cashier and an expert.
With great confidence Gen. Strickland handed
the expert the bll-after establishing his bust
ness and experience in handling money-and
said:
that bill is good or bad"
THAT is good bill, SIR returned the witness.
What" shouted the general. "Do you mean
to say that bill is not counterfeit"
Eyes, sir. If you will bring it down to the
Omaha National bank we will give you gold for
it,"
Then there was scene, in the midst of which.
Mr. Baldwin managed to explain to the court
that he had changed bills without the knowledge
of the district attorney, and that in view OF the
fact that three good business men had testified
that a genuine bill was counterfeit, he thought
considerable allowance should be made for his
client-an ignorant country bey-in mistaking
counterfeit for good bill. The jury was evil
IDENTITY impressed with the idea, for they re-
turned verdict for acquittal.-Onaha Bee

WRECK AND RUIN.
Saltwater Is Again Visited By Storm
and Flood.
This Time the Prison Gets Its Share of
the Flood. Shops Shut Down.

Following the fearful storm and flood of a
week ago. Saltwater was again visited Tuesday
night with a mighty deluge, seemingly to com
plete its fearful work of wreck and ruin. The
Shoupe block, on South Main, is almost a total
wreck. Wenberg's store and vacant house on
South Fourth street are completely destroyed.
Every street in the city is completely strewn
with rubbish, mud and sand. The Sawyer House
is filled with sand and debris, entailing a loss of
hundreds of dollars. The fearful loss and dam
age to the city and private property cannot, at
present writing. estimated. but it will reach
up into tens of thousands of dollars. Every
railroad entering the city is washed out and the
city is entirely cut Off from railway communica-
ton. No mails can reach the city except by
team.
The prison was also flooded; all the lower
shops were filled with mud, sand and water to a
depth of from two to three feet. While the base
ments are completely filled. The IhreSher
| COmpany's basement offices are completely filled
with mud and water reaching to the ceiling
above. The prison yard is completely strewn with
debris An entire section of North Second ST.,
was lifted out and deposited in the prison yard
to depth of at least six feet, covering the entire
west portion of the yard and spreading at varl-
GUS depths over the entire arena. Thousands
