Grand Opera House.

"The Two Sisters" a play that is worth a hundred of the old melodra- matic plays, and which Is fully appre- ciated here. will be seen tonight and tomorrow night, with matinee Satur- day. "The Two Sisters" Is good play. While there Is not a single situation in 1t that might be called startling climax, or a scene that even suggests strong emotional acting, there is q ten- der pathos about the whole structure of the play proper that pene :'ates the very soul. There are characters in- troduced who have little to do with the action of the drama, but they serve to prolong story that is 70 brief to be told in four acts without introducing tiresome lot of sentiment tai stuff that would shadow what is really good, and thus lose to th- public what is one of the most intensely in- teresting plots that has yet been put on the stage from an all-American standpoint.

Seven Were Killed.

ATLANTA, Ca, Dec. 26.-Governor
Atkinson has received a telegram from
Sheriff Thrasher, of Brooks county,
dated at Quitman, at 1890 a. NJ, an
nouncing that he was on the point of
leaving for the scene of the race dis
turbance, 10 miles from Quitman, with
the Valdosta Videttes, 80 strong. The
sheriff added that while he appre-
hended no serious trouble, ne thought
it advisable for the Wycross Rifles
to be kept in reserve, ready
to at once, in case he should need
them. The governor has given orders
in compliance with those suggestions,
and the Rifles are in readiness at Way
cross.
The latest reports from Brooks give
the number Of men killed as seven, in
Guiding Constable Mauldin, killed two
or three weeks ago, and Joseph Isham,
white, and Sam Taylor, Eli Frazier,
Harry Sherrod, Sam Pike and George
Fritz, colored. It is believed here that
the trouble is practically over, and that
the appearance of the militia will eff,
fectually end it.

ST. PAUL, Dec. 26.-The Pioneer

sase W. w. Erwin said: "There is
nothing for us to say at present except
that I am convinced that the state has
no theory. They are at sea It may
be that I will have something to say to
the public presently, but not just now.
The fact is that there has been too
much newspaper talk about the affair,
and the trial must be honestly con
Quoted, and neither a fictitious de-

ton will do" Asked whether he
would say that the Pioneer Press had
indicated the line of defense in stating,
. week ago, that there would be some
very unexpected developments when
the case came to trial, and that people
who had not yet been mentioned in
connection with the affair would be
brought into it, Mr.. Erwin refused to
answer, adding that he had nothing
whatever to say of the features Of the
matter at present, but probably would
before long.

IRRIGATION IN IOWA.
An Eldora Farmer Is Making Extensive

An Eldora Farmer Is Making Extensive
Preparations.
ELDoRA, Ia, Dec. 22.-The only sys-
tenn of land irrigation in the Missis-
sippi valley is now being undertaken in
Hardin county, on the farm Of Justin
Wells, near Steamboat Rock. At the
cost of several thousand dollars he has
begun the systematic laying of water
pipes throughout a large tract of bottom
land. Tbs pipes are 2 inches in diam
eter, and are laid 2 feet under the earth
to prevent freezing in the winter sea-
son. These pipes parallel each other at
a distance of about 30 feet.
At convenient intervals hydrants rise
from the water mains through which
the water is forced into an hydraulic
ram. The interval Of distance is deter
mined by the lay Of the land; if the
lay is a liberal slope the hydrants occur
less often. The hydrant ram is a small
round reservoir, with three stop cocks,
n on either side and one in front. The
water can flow through all at the same
time, but ordinarily the side flow will
be utilized. The head water, or source
of supply, will be a reservoir of several
hundred barrels capacity, which will
be supplied by surface flow and by
pumping in case of necessity. Mr..
Wells is confident of the feasibility Of
his scheme. The only question is one
Of profit. He expects to irrigate by
this process 1000 acres of land, while
it's capacity is sufficient for 2, 900 acres.
! This Hardin county irrigation scheme
will attract national attention, and the
outcome of it will determine . new
system of farming in the central states.

WORSE THAN ARMENIA

Wholesale Slaughter of Negroes
Around Qultman, Ga.
GOOD PEOPLE DEPLORE IT.
And Will Attempt to Bring the
Guilty Parties to Justice---
The Alabama Row.

SAVANNAH, Ga. Dec. 26.-Special tele-
grams from Qaitman, Ga, throw a diff
ferent light on the wholesale slaughter
Of negroes in that county. The dis
patches say:
Never before in the history of Brooks
county has there been so much crime
and bloodshed as within the past week.
News has just been received of out
RACES committed in the Morven district
of this county that will almost equal
the hideous crimes recently perpetrated
upon inoffensive Armenians. ~
The Starting of the Trouble.
A few nights ago, Joe Isham, a we'll
known white man, was shot down in
the road at night by Dave Pike, a
negro. His friends claim that it was
without provocation, but some Of the
citizens say that it is not true, that
Isham was trying to kill the negro, but
the negro got the better Of it. Isham's
friends armed themselves and went in
search of Pike. Not succeeding in this
they went to the house of Sam Taylor,
an inoffensive old negro who is the
stepfather OF Pike, and threatened him
that if he did not tell where Pike was
they would kill him. Taylor affirmed
that he did not know anything about
1t and he was Ut.
Immediately Shot to Death,
several bullets entering his body. From
Taylor's they went to the house of Eli
Frazier. Fraziei was carried down the
road a short distance and when his
wife found him he was lying murdered
by the roadside. From Frazier's they
went to the house of Harry Sherwood,
an innocent negro, who was also foully
murdered. It is reported that the muir.
derers, after they had killed these in
nocent negroes, entered their houses
and subjected their wives and daught.
ers to the most cruel and barbarous
outrages eve committed in a civilized
community. A detailed account would
be too horrible to appear in print.
Sheriff Is Censured.
The murderous gang is still at large
and some of the negroes are leaving the
community for protection. An inquest
was held over the body Of Sam Taylor
and the coroner's jury returned a YER
dict Of murder at the hands of Judge
Tillman and Bill Alderman. Sheriff
Thresher has made no effort to stop
these outrages and he is being severely
centured by the best class of citizens.
All good people OF the community
deeply deplore the events and will en-.
deavor to bring the guilty parties t.
Justice.

sioux CITY BooDLERs.

4 Lot More oodbury County 9 roo ked-
ness Unearthed.
Sioux CITY, Ia, Dec. 26.-The sift-
Ing committee that has been at work
on the outstanding warrants of the
county for several weeks, in an effort
to separate the legal from the illegal
ones, has made some new sensational
disclosures. Among other things it
has been found that in 1892 just about
half the money drawn from the county
poor fund was stolen. The method was
to draw the money in the names Of
fictitious persons, represented as pau
pers, and forge the fictitious name to
the receipt for the warrant which had
to be kept in the auditors Office. AS
one of the deputy auditors was in tho
ring this was easy.
Other Funds Were Worked.
Other funds were worked in the
same way. but for large amounts.
About "a cases of forgery have been
discovered. The charge has not been
heretofore made, and the crimes were
but lately discovered. The warrants
for which forged receipts were given,
were from $50 to $500 each. The
names of several people have been dis
covered who were furnished with
money from the poor fund with which
to travel. This was a favorite method
Of doing favors to friends. The money
would be charged to transportation of
ro,1rorc xxyhN xryo,,o holm cor,% or,f Nf tho
county. Some Of them, according to
the records, were sent to the Pacific
coast. The warrants drawn in this
way were divided among the members
Of the board who constituted the ring.
Besides the money that was stolen,
money was squandered by thousands
of dollars through reckless manage
ment. ~. .a...
Investigation To Be Extended.
The citizens committee is contem-
plating action at the next term of court
against some more ex.oficials who have
not been indicted. The prospects are
that the investigation will be revived
and carried deeper than before. Prior
to 1898 the conditions were even worse
than in that year, although none Of
the warrants before that time have
been investigated so closely, for the
reason that they have been paid by tho
county and nothing can be saved by
proving their illegality. Those that are
now declared illegal are mainly in the
hands of the Farmers Loan and Trust
company, which will make q hard fight
to enforce their collection. This will
entail an immense amount in costs,
which the county must bear. The in.
vestigation has kept the courts Of the
county grinding for a large part Of the
year now ending, and it is likely to do
as well next year.
Indicted Officials Making a Fight.
Meantime the indicted officials and
ex-otficials are making q hard fight
against the indictments, alleging that
they are technically imperfect. Tbs
courts have been disposed all along to
refuse to take mere technicalities into
account, and if this policy is continued
will not throw out the indictments.
Judge Van Wagenen, who has heard
the cases from the start, ~retires from
the bench Jan. l, and it is uncertain
what the new judge will do.
