saying ST never read The S!ate."
But when it was found thata subscrip-
ton was not wanted, but merely an in.

tice smiled again, and to my question
whether he would be a candidate foc
Governor to succeed Governor Tlllnan,
be readily replied: II am a
candidate for the Office of Governor,
subject to the acton of the Reform con-
ventlon, which Is to be held some time
during the spring or summer. Permit
me to say that the other gentlemen,
whose names have been mentioned for
Governor, are all strong personal trends
of mine, and in The conduct Of the can
vass nothing will be said or done by me
to interfere with that friendship. The
success of the Reform movement, is, in
my judgment, paramount to the success
of any individual; and the success o! the
moVemen. is what We are all striving for.
There is too much peace and unity
among the Raformers to allow the har-
monv or success Of the movement to
be disturbed by quarrsling over any par
tlcular man; and the man: suggesteted
By the Reform convention Will receive
the individual support of all Rsforners. )"

the discovery of a dynamate bomb
which had been placed against four
story building on Grant street, adjoin-
ing the police station. The bomb con-
tanned half a pound Of dynamite encased
in lead pipe carefully closed, with nitro

Williamson, an elderly and Well.to-do
farmer, living near Pittston, decided
not long ago to marry. Annie Waldon
was dashing brunette and Emma
Richards was quiet little blonde. For
a time Williamson paid attention to
Miss Walden, and it was generally IN.
derstood that taey were engaged, but
he finally transferred his attentions to
Miss Richards, saying to his friends
that the Walden girl was 600 glddy for
him. Soon thereafter it was announced
that he and Miss Rich ARDS were en-
gagged, and the wedding day was set:
When Miss Walden and her friends
heard of this they were indignant,
claiming that Williamson had prom.
ised to marry her before he began pay
ing attention to Miss Richards. She
swore she would become his bride IN
one way or another. The day before
the wedding, Williamson says, he went
TO Pitts5on aud there met some OF Miss
Walden's friends, who took him around
to several saloons and got him in.oxl-
Gated, and then took him to some place
where somebody married them. lie
says that when he got sober he found
Miss Walden Installed in his house as
his wife, and that he was possessed OF a
marriage certificate in proper legal
form. Williamson has begun suit for
divorce

= Western Horror.

SPOKANE, Wash, Jan. l6.-An ava.
lauche Of snow came dom the noun
tans at Ma,lan, Idaho, carrying every
thing before It. Several miners cabins
were crushed and buried, and Cornelius
McGre7q and John Bollen were killed.
It IS feared that others persisted, but un-
til spring comes it will not be known
how many. The mining town of Mullan
narrowly escaped. There We're num-
ber OF cabins, and the slide occurred at
time when many miners were going to
and from work. All the occupants of
the little cottages below rushed out, and
the women ran with their children in
their arms. Ole woman ran along the
side Of The mountain, warning everybody
to fly for their lives, after all others ha
gone, and it is feared that she is among
the victims. Nearly dozsd persons
are unaccountel for. The danger is not
yet over as huge mass Of snow still
remains hanging about Mullan. Most
Of the Inhabitants in the valley have
moved to the opposite side CT the gulch.

Excitement In Italy.

ROME, Jan. l6.-There is considera.
bic excitement today at Cararra and
vicinity. The discovery Saturday night
Of an anarchist plot to loot and burn the
City of Cararra led the police and mllli'
tary authorities 10 take extraordinary
precautions to prevent any atte npt to
carry .oul the plans of the conspirstors.
Early today a number Of anarchists from
the adjoining districts, sought to eater
the city, but were prevented by the mil
litary. a number Of shots were ex-
( changed by the rioters and troops, but
Sc far as known, nobody was hurt.
Finding that It was impossible for them
to get into~the city, where there is no
doubt they intended to join the anarch-
ist residents in the city II r:oting, the
mob scattered in different directlons.
They are now securing the country, car
rying terror to the quiet people living
there. They go TO every house and de-
mand of the occupants to surrender
whatever lire arms they may have.
About five thousand workiDgmen have
struck IN Massa and Cararra.
Both towna are occupied by
troops. All the shops are closed.
The inhabitants are frightened
and many families are provisioning their
house as if for seige. Bands OF revolt
ers parade the roads, making requisi-
tlons on the people for arms and food.
At 3 O'Clock this afternoon, the people
OF Massa were thrown into state OF
CONSERVATION by shearing tussilade in
the hills near by. A squadron of caval.
ry, had encountered mob of 500 men
at the Fassola Bridge, two kilometres
from Massa. After a stubborn fight.
he mob was dispersed. Many was
wounded and several were killed. Troops
guard the railWaYat all points to prevent
the tearing up Of the rails. Some soldi-
ers are in active pursuit ofhands in the
mountains. The cabinet council has
given Premier Crlspi free hand as to
the time when he shall declare the PROV
ince Of Massa he Carrara in q state OF
seige. The proclamation will probably
be issued tomorrow unless the situation
improves in the meantime.

Irby on the Anxious Bench.

WASHINGTON, January W.-There
was mysterious meeting this after
noon in Senator Irby's committee room
at the Capitol. Early in the day Sena-
tor Irby informed your correspondent
that he was preparing letter which he
proposed to send to all of the leading
South Carolina papers for publication.
He said 1t related to the political situa-
tion in the State, and he was anxious
that it should be sent by telegraph.
Later he took luncheon with John
Gary E ans, who does not appear to be
in a hurry to consult the Baltimore
specialists about his "throat trouble %
because he stia fingers in washington,
and afterWard the Senator and Nj. Eg-
ans went oyer to the House of Repre-.
sentatives to see Messrs. Strait, Lati-
mer and Talbert. When next seen the
Senator and his friends were heading
for the Senator's committee room,
which is in the basement of the Senate
wing. It is understood that the Sena-
tor is somewhat worried by the stories
in circulation concerning him at home,
and he fears some of his political asso-
ciates are disposed to misrepresent him,
and he feels that he must be up and
doing or his political picture may be
turned toward the wall" The confer
ence this afternoon was probably to
agree upon the terms to be employed
in the Senator's proclamation and
probably he feels that he needs the
sanction of some of his Congressional
associates in the undertaking. Repre-
sentative Shell was not invited to the
conference, and it Is not known wheth-
er Representative McLaurin was pres
ent. The latter has recently shown a
disposition to act independently Of
Senator Irby' so far as national and
State matters are concerned, and he ap-
pears to be making as much, II not
more, progress than those members
who are inclined to look to the junior
Senator for advice and guidance on all
public questions. Recently Represen-
tative Lstlmer has gained considerable
independence from the encouraging
letters be has received from influential
constituents and he shows an inclina'
ton to follow his own ideas rather
than accept suggestions from those
who claim the privilege Of exercising
political authority over the Reform
ers" in the State. Mr.. Latimer says be
is confident that he can obtain a reel
ection from his own people providing
he steers clear of "boss" or "ring" rule,
and, therefore, he proposes to listen to
the voices of his people rather than
heed the dictates of the so.called lead

For Love-,

RICHMOND, January 16.-Miss Liz
zie Newhouse, a highly cultured young
LADY of twenty-five, committed suicide
at her home in Culpeper, Va, last night
by blowing her brains out with pls-
tol. She left a note explaining the
cause of her rash act. She had, she
said, been engaged to Mr.. A: z. Hill,
of that county, nephew of the dis.
tinguisled Gen. A. p. Hill. of Confed-
crate fame. The engagement, how
ever, was broken off at the lady's own
request. Her lover moved West, &C.
quired competency and married. The
fact that she had destroyed her own
happiness brooded upon tae mind of
Miss NeWhouse and caused her to take
