The following dispatch was sent from Little Rock few days ago: A free for-all fight occurred at negro church festival at Harris chapel, miles from Augusta, in which pistols, razors and knives were used promiscuously, and as q result four negroes were wounded at least one of whom will probably die. 4 negro hamed Weldon iostled against another negro named Brat. ton, and a quarrel ensued. Brat tons six brothers, who were en- gagged in a game of craps just outside the chapel, were called to his assistance. Weldon hastily sum moned his forces, and q fierce battle ensued.

Hudson Cruteher was cut in the back of the neck and across the small of the back, shot in the calf of the leg and right arm and severely beaten. Will Jackson was shot in the wrist, cut across the back very deeply, ard will probably die. Joe Bratton was shot, but not danger ously.

BUTTER AND CHEESE MAKING.
Biggest Dairy and Creamery Supply Heuse
in the World.

Farmers throughout the country are con-
stantly making inquiries as to machinery
and appliances for the making and
cheese.
Areporter for a Chicago paper was recently
detailed toinvestigate the subject. Theresult
Of the reporters tour was the discovery
that Chicago, which leads in SO many things,
contains the largest and most complete man.
ufactory in the world for the production of
butter and cheese making machinery and
utensils. The concern Is the Davis & Ran
kin Building and Manufacturing Company,
one of the well-known and reliable business
institutions of Chicago. and occupies splen-
did building at 2i0 TO 254 Lake street. In the
several departments Of its factory, Which
OCCUPY in the aggregate some three acres
OF floor space, there is not an implement
or a piece of mechanis m, no matter how
simple or how intricate, that is not made in
this wonderful establishment Six hundred
persons, all of them, with the exception of
about dozen, skilled worknen and trained
experts. are employed. The farmer who
owns two or three cows can find here, at iu-
significant cost, useful devices for convert
ing his milk into marketable form, and the
community that wishes TO establish acfeam-
cry large enough to take care OF its entire
product is accommodated with equal facil-
ity.
The centrifugal cream separator, for sep
arating cream from milk, is as great an in
vention in It's way as the sewing machine,
the reaper or the cotton gin. The Davis a.
Rankin Company manufactures these de-
vices in great variety, from a loW-priced,
but finely finished hand separator, worked
by means of o crank, to the superb con-
trvance known as the Davis separator,
with capacities of from zoo TO 3,00O pounds
per hour.
For furnishing motive power this COM
pany makes an admirable engine, either hor
nontal or upright in style, in which sim
pleity, conpactneSS, strength, economy,
and durability are conspicuous points. This
is the only farm and dairy motor that was
awarded medal at the Worlds Columbian
exposition.
All persons interested can do 10 better
than to write TO the Davis K Rankin Com
panv. and obtain a catalogue Of their cream
cry and dairy machinery supplies. When
you come to Chicago pay them visit and
see one of the wonderful sights of this Won
derful city.

1t should Not Pass.

a bill is now pending before the LeGisla-
turc Of Alabama which seeks to prohibit
the sale of proprietary medicines, unless
the formula of the same shall be placed on
the bottle or package containing the medi-
cine.
An attempt to pass similar law has been
made in almost every State in the Union.
but has always failed because the measure
is not in the interest of the people, but on
the contrary is introduced to serve some
selfish end
If proprietors could comply with the pro-
visions OF such law, every tinker in nedi-
cine in the country would inhict on the
public an imitation of remedies that re-
quire skill and experience in their prepara-
tion.
If this law is passed it will practically
prohibit the sale Of patent medicines in the
State Of Alabama, and many Of them arc
recognized as household remedies by thou
sands Of people who would consider it
hardship TO be compelled 10 do without
them.

third had escaped their recollection.
The teacher then repeated: when a
