Tin Wedding.

Friday was the tenth ami
versary Of the marriage Of Mr.. and
Mrs. Il. y. Berg, and last evening
about fifty of their friends unexpect-
eddy called ON them at their pleasant
home Oh Seventh Street North, to
help them celebrate the event in an
appropriate manner. The guests
were heartily welcomed and enjoyed
themselves in dancing and in other
ways, and refreshments were served.
All spent a. delightful evening.
About thirty-fve or forty were
present at the Populist meeting at
the city hall on Tuesday evening.
Although small, the meeting was
quite an enthusiastic one, and those
present seemed to be OF the opinion
that the party will cut considerable
of a figure in Morrison county poll
tics this fall Short speeches were
made by several persons, among
others the remarks by Charles Boom,
mill wright fol. the Interstate Milling
company, were very interes ting, and
showed him to be an enthusiastic
Peoples party man. At the meet
ing next Tuesday evening they will
probably decide whether they will
put a county ticket in the field OF
not.
Some Of the people who are i'm
camp at Birch Lake tell a story OF
how a young army officer, who is
visiting friends at Sank Centre,
frightened some of the young ladies
when the men were away from the
camp. They thought he was a bad
man and while one was telling him
that the men were within mailing
distance another protested that
they were three miles up the lake.
The lieutenant Immediately per-
cieved their dilemma by telling them
who he was and what he wanted.
We hear his name mentioned quite
frequently, and some of them think
that they would enjoy army life.
Mr.. Chris Olson and Miss johanna

THE VlGILANT BEATEN !,

NOT BY THE sATANITA, HOWEVER,, BUT
 THE CLUB S COMMITTEE.
 DARTMOUTH, Aug 31. After handsomely vanquishing the biggest of England's crack cutters, the Satanita, over half the course of the Royal Dartmouth Yacht club, the Vigilant lost the prize through the de- cision of the regatta committee. It was certainly a race in the British acceptance of the term, as there is no time limit on yachting contests on this side of the ocean.
 It was the Vigilant's weather in the opin- ion of English experts. A light northeast breeze barely ruffled the surface of the channel, bringing with it mist that gave away in the offing sr, a spectral aspect to see the Vigilant's duel with MT. Clark's yacht. The contest was for prizes of $250 and Sl50, under the auspices of the Royal Dartmouth Yacht club.
 The course was triangular. The first leg Of about four miles was from the Dart mouth range, at the entrance to the harbor, due south to the Skerres bell buoy, thence in a northwesterly direction to mark boat off east Blackstone, about four and half miles, and thence to the westward about mile and half, back to the start- ing place. The course was sailed over four times, and thus had eleven turns.
 The Satanita had half minute start, but the VigiIant rounded the Skerries buoy (the first turn) two minutes and three Sec- onds ahead. Rounding the same buoy on the second turn the Vigilant was sixteen minutes and forty seconds ahead.
 It was now plain to the most prejudiced advocate of the cutter that, barring acci- dents and fukes, the Vigilant was sure winner by big margin, which conserva- tives estimated would be about half mile. But the fckle wind fell almost to 0 dead calm just after the yachts rounded the Skerries buoy. The Vigilant was first around the east Blacksto mark boat. A breeze came out of the south southwest as she laid her course for the home mark. The Satanita stood in shore and seemed to get better breeze, which enabled her to catch up a bit. The Vigilant ran into calm streak. The Satanita held the breeze until she passed Newstone, about a mile from the starting point. The breeze got around to the southward and the Vigilant widened the gap between herself and the cutter. The wind fell again and the yachts barely bad steerage way. The Vigiiant wasiar in the lead.
 At this point the committee decided to call the race off. It is surmised that the decision was somewhat influenced by the fact that the Satanita had no chance to win. In regard to the conflict to forty raters, the committee had different opin- ion. It decided that the forty rater that was ahead at the end of the first round should be declared the winner.
 The Royal Dartm outh Yacht club has the reputation of being the most unfair yacht ing club going in England. The decision oi their committee caused the Times and Field representatives here to indulge in very unfavorable comment in regard to the Dartmouth's club method.

BRUTAL SPORT.
,wo BULLDOGS HAVE A FIGHT FOR

TWO BULLDOGS HAVE A FIGHT FOR A PURSE.
 ! The sports were all there. The place was a secluded and wooded spot several miles distant from the city. and the attractions were two vicious bulldogs, both so white that the average spectator didn't know which one he had his money on.
 Late in the afternoon a crowd gathered at the selected spot. It was shady, but it was also hot. There were no ladies in the crowd, so the men did not feel bashful ln pulling off their coats.
 After some time a bull dog led by his trainer appeared. A few minutes later an- other canine of the same species appeared. |.
 A little fellow, who seemed to be master of ceremonies, lifted his hat and addressed his fellow sports:
 stFellow sports we've got to have purse or the fight don't come off,
 Handing around the hat he said: "It' 6 worth BIO to see a fight, but it won't cost you anything but what you want to give. Let me heve your monev~4bat's the stuff Pm after 'J ---.--
 The-h when passed around lacked S2 5 0 5f having the required purse.
 Putting the money into the hands of the purse holder the master of ceremonies again appealed to his fellow sports to fill the hat. 'fIt takes only S2.60 more: 1 am coming and let me have that cash, he re- marked. He got it; a line was made; the bulls bantered.
 "One, two, three," counted the referee and the fight was on. It was rough and ble and each dog was for himself.
 It was dog fight and the finest that has been sprung lately. They gnawed, jswed and tumbled. Flesh was torn and blood flowed until the greatest sport present wanted something stronger than water to put in his stomach.
 After fighting for just twenty eight minutes the referee declared the fight finished. The white dog whipped and the white dog lost. 1t was a fight "out oi sight, and something that only sports know how to enjoy.

FATAL SHOOTING AFFRAY
AND A LYEcHINa BY ENRAGED CITIZENS
 BARELY AVERTED.

AND A LYECHING BY ENLARGED CITIZENS
 BARELY AvERTED.
 ROANOKE, Va., Aug. 31.--A serious and perhaps fatal shooting affray occurred at Blue Ridge Springs Thursday night about II o'clock, in which Taylor Oyerstreet, the watchman at the hotel, was wounded by Henry Grigg, colored waiter at the hotel Grigg was arrested and would undoubtedly have been lynched by the enraged people had it not been for Capt. Phil Brown, the proprietor of the hotel.
 The trouble arose from the fact that for some time several of the walters have been guilty of indecent conduct in the presence o1 Mrs. Terry, who has charge of the dairy. The matter was reported to Captain Brown, who advised that nothing should be done, aud warned the negroes to desist from such conduct.
 The offense was repeated, however, and a crowd went to the negro's room for the purpose of taking him out and thrashlng him. MT. Overstreet opened the door leading into the room occupied by Grlgg and asked him 10 come out, as they wanted to see him. Grigg turned over ln bed ana fired at MT. Overstreet, the bullet striking him in the abdomen and lodging in his liver. Overstreet promptly returned the fire and the shooting became general. Grigg was shot iu the side.
 | Grigg, alter being wounded, attempted to esca pc, and made dash through the door, He was followed and caught in~the- woods near by. Captain Brown was sent for, and when he arrived on the scene the negro was on his knees pleading for mercy and was surrounded by men with drawn revolvers. Captain Brown begged the men not to commit any rash act and let the prisoner be dealt with according to law. They were persuaded, and the man was taken to Fincastle for safe- keeping. MT. Oyerstreet's wound is of a serious nature and fears are entertained for his recovery.

TEXAS, COTTON CROP.

GALVESTON, Tex. Aug. 31.-The News, after giving the dates of planting in the different sections of the state and the con- ditions of the young plant, says:
 The crop growed off nicely during May and suffered only slight local damages from hail and washing In north Texas. At the close of May cotton was reported well worked and in excellent condition, and early planted was blooming. Heavy local rains did some damage to cotton over cen- tral Texas the first Of June, but general rains greatly proved the crop through out the state. Cotton had commenced blooming and forming squares by the mid de of June. The weather was generally favorable for the growth of the crop during July and picking had commenced in some localities by the end of the month.
 The weather during August was about what was needed for the crop over the northwest part of the state, while over the southeastern half of the state rather too much rain fell, and picking was delayed throughout this seclio9-and the cotton slightly damaged by the wet weather. Worms nHrust are reported from a few localities, but so far no material damage has resulted from these sources.
