State Troops Lay Down Their Arms In
Preference to Fighting the People.
COLUMBIA, S. c., March 3l-The
passions aroused by the dispensary law
and the spy system had the long expected
result in the fight at Darlington Friday
afternoon, in which at least two spies
and two citizens We're shot to death and
three other men badly wounded. All
the sympathy is with the citizens and
the air is filed with fierce expressions
against the government the dispensary
law and the spies. The fight occurred
about 6 o'clock as a body of spies were
leaving the town. In the fight Frank E.
Nornlant, a prominent young insurance
man, and a man named Redmond from
North Carolina and Constables McLemon
and Pepper were killed outright.
When Governor TiIlman received the
news a hasty conference was held with
Adjutant General Farley, special
train was ordered and the three local
militia companies were ordered to as
senble at their arniories. Colonel
Wylie Jones OF the Palmetto regiment
was ordered by the governor to proceed
with troops to Darlington. Tt at once
became question whether the militia
men, all sy1npathizers with the citizens
of Darlington, would go. The members
of the Columbia Zouaves and Governors
guards assembled at the respective
armories, but refused TO go to Darlington.

the cause of the trouble. Consequently
there were loud threats of mobbing
them before they were got to headquar-
tiers after the bloody riot was over.
Battle Was of Short Duration.
It is claimed that one of Pryor's fol-
lowers fired the first shot. The one was
Mike Callahan and he was a dead man
the next moment. Then the battle
began, the deputy constables at this poll
ing booth and the workers of all the
political factions crowded together in
solid mass about 100 strong and every
one seemed to be armed. For minute
or two the discharge of weapons sounded
like volley of musketry by regiment
Hundreds of citizens gathered at every
point of vantage to witness the battle,
which, however, was of short duration.
The onlookers trembled with excitement.
Many of the residents along the bouIe-
ward added to the general feeling of
terror by leaning from their windows,
shouting and gesticulating wildly. In
less than five minutes from the time the
first shot was fired, however, the blue
coats from station No. 3 had appeared
upon the scene and quieted the disturb
ance. With their first approach the
fighting political workers ceased HOSTILE
ties and made quick effort to hide thier
weapons.
About dozen arrests have been made
in connection with the rioting on the
boulevard and the police are working on
evidence which they have gathered from
the men now under arrest and it is prob
able that further arrests Will be made
soon. No further disturbance has oc-
CURED and it is thought there will be no
further trouble. Returns received in
dictate that Webster Davis, the straight
Republican candidate for mayor, has
been elected ny a good round majority
over all tickets, carrying with him the
entire Republican ticket.

DRIVEN OFF BY MODS
The Scenes of 1881 Being Repeated
In the Coke Regions.
GREAT OUTBREAK AT HILL Farm
Several aEen BADLY Hurt and Driven from
the BIines-StriIers Threaten to Burn
1the Works.

UHoNToW9S, Pa, April 3.-The storm
has broken and the scenes of 1891 are
being repeated throughout the coke
region. The big coke strike with all Its
attendant rioting and destruction of
property is now in full force. Monday
morning the call of the Acottdale con-
vent4on was obeyed by more than half
OF the workers in the coke fields and it
took fully 5000 men from their works.
The situation is now one of great peril
throughout the coke region and more
destructive outbreaks are expected any
time. The ranks of the strikers have
been so reinforced that the lowest esti-
mates give them 10, 00n From the out
side the strike has been turbulent with 3
tendency of open defiance of law. There
was rloting in several quarters Sunday
night. 1t has grown steadily worse and
Monday there were more serious ont
breaks in this end of the field. The men
of the Oliver works left 1,5O0 tons of
coke burning up in the ovens.
Several Men Badly Hurt.
The company then, to save the prop
erty attempted to put some men at work
drawing the coke, when the strikers set
them from the ground. In the melee
several men were badly hurt. The
greatest outbreak was at the famous
Hill Farm mines near here. About 400
foreigners from Morrel and Weller of
the Cambria works armed themselves
with guns and revolvers and clubs and
started out to drive the men from the
neighboring plants. They first visited
the Humphrey works, and finding the
men at work, drove them away under
the muzzle of pistols They then visited
the Anchor works. After al the men
had been driven away, the rioters be-
gan firing the shanties at Hill Farm, but
desisted at the frantic entreaties of the
women and children. Superintendent
Long, of the Hill Farm, had some of the
Hungarians arrested for attempting to
burn property.
Late Monday night it was reported to
the labor leaders here that the entire
coke region is under control of the strik-
ers and not a plant will be allowed to
operate without struggle. The strik-
err openly threaten to burn the plants
rather than see them operated at the
present. price for labor. The strikers
will muster 10 900 to 1900 and in their
pres ut state OF restitution they are re-
leDtless. The civil authorities say that
they will not be able to cope with the
trout lie. The widest of the wild foreign
ellen Ont is in virtual command. They
openly declare it the purpose of the
strikers to drive out every man who may
wart to work.

THE LOUISIANA LOTTERY.
Attempting to Re-establish ON United
tates SOIL.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 90, 1S94.-The
attempt of the Louisiana Lottery Company
to r~e-establish itself on United States soil at
an obscure point in the State of Florida has
called attention anew to the Federal statutes,
and, with the purpose in view of making
them even more binding than they are,
Senator Hoar has introduced a bill supple
mentary to all existing legislation. This bill
is patterned after the New York statutes to
some extent, and copies the New York
statutory definition of a lottery which,
in the case of People VS.. Noelke, quoted in
the forty-sixth American reports, is held to
be sufficient. Under this New York deini-
ton, which Mr.. Hoar copies, the term slot
terry as used in the act, means a scheme for
the distribution of property by chance
among persons who have paid, or agreed to
pay a valuable consideration for the chance,
whether called a lottery, rattle, or
gift enterprise, or by some other name.
The second section, which is also taken
partly from the New York penal code,
refers to the possession of or bringing into
the United States of tickets, and extends the
present law more rigidly than before to
mailing, importation, Interstate commerce,
ETC., making the first offence punishable by
fine or Imprisonment and continued offences
by incarceration only. 1t is made unlawful
to import lottery tickets of any kind, and
care is taken that none of the previous acts
passed in suppression of this business are re-
Dealed.

left side of the five lateral pufffs arranged
on the crown. The front hair is parted a
little to the left and curled. and the middle
is drawn down on the forehead with point
ed effect.
In one new bridal couture the tulle veil
falls full all the way around, covering the
face, and the orange flowers are fastened in
a narrow chaplet, with two or three erect
sprays near or at the front. This is a much
prettier arrangement than the late fashion
of leaving the brides face uncovered, and
the tulle veil, although inexpensive, is in
finitely more becoming than those made of
rich lace.
English modes show a tendency to carry
the hair back from the face and allow the
forehead to be almost entirely unshaded,
but the French still cling to the softening
effect of fluffy curls and waves. Not one
face in so can bear a perfectly plain fat
arrangement of the hair, although it has
sometimes a quaint look on a very young
girl and is the most dignified style for an
old lady, since the one is supposed to have
not acquired and the other to have out
grown the frivolities of the world. From
the hairdresser's point of view it is a de-
cided disadvantage to have very thick or
long hair, as its bulk and weight are a
hindrance to his art. His full ingenuity
can be displayed only with short tresses
light enough to not fall from their fasten-
irgs by their wv weight.
A picture is given of an 1880 couture. The
back hair is waved and drawn up to the
crown, where it is secured in a braided coil,
through the middle of which is drawn a
projecting loop. The short front hair is
parted in the middle and curled at the sides,
the curled portion being combed upto meet
the coil.

E PUBLICATIONS.

The first number of the Union Square
Series of paper covered novels, published by
the Cleveland Publishing Company is THE
Malachite Cross" by Frank Fl. Norton. 1t
is a work of intense and unfailing interest,
the scenes laid in two countries. The posses
sor of a certain malachite cross gains through
its agency a mysterious power to way all
things to his will. 1t passes from one hand
to another, won by murders, finally causing
the detth by burning of the man who had
long schemed to win it. Supernatural agencies
enter freely into the plot; a haunted house
in old New York is full of the spirits of
Hessians murdered in the Revolutionary
War; and q e'mirror-fiend' warns the dwell
lers in a French chateau Of terrible danger
impending over them.
It is a strong story, and one that holds the
readers closest attention. Viewed as a liter
airy effort, it is worthy Of high praise; the
style is easy and flowing, and betokens a
practised hand.

That New Water Combine.

In the note of warning sounded in
these columns, last Saturday, The
NEWS Just hit the nail on the head:
The New Jersey General Security
Company, as we surmised, is a new
water syndicate which has the modest
design of gobbling up all the small
fry companies and all the available
water rights and storage sites in the
State. Then it will have every city
at its mercy, and then-well then Jer-
sey City will be asked to make a con-
tract, something like the Newark one.
The scheme is not unlike Mr.. L. B.
Wards great idea of a State supply,
only instead of being devised for the
public benefit. this one is concocted
for the profit of a favored few.
We understand this company has a
great bill to be introduced as soon as
the Legislature gets in trim, "a bill
quite like the famous coal combine
measure in its care for the dear peo-
pie. Look out for 1t!

GIRLS RAISING MUsTAoHEs.

Who would think of looking to an English
journal for news of this countrys Yet now
and then we learn characteristic OF our un-
tanned and frowsy condition through Eng.
lish columns that have escaped the notice OF
even the ubiquitous American newspaper
men and For example, a London
society journal says:-sThe recent visit OF
the Infanta Eulalia of Spain to the United
States has supplied the fashionable damseis
of that country with a new and distinctly
startling craze, nothing less, in fact, than an
attempt to cultivate a mustache. Like most
Spanish women, the Infanta possesses just
the slightest shadow of down upon her upper
lip, which in persons of rich Southern blood
often constitutes a charm. The American
girl, however, with her fair, clear complex
ion, would never look anything but ridlcu-
lous in a mustache, and her attempts, there
fore, to cultivate it are not only particularly
foolish, but afford a striking instance OF the
snobbish worship of blue blood which char
acteriZes this great Republic"

eminent Help.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 20, 1894-Biograpical
glimpses of two of the revolutionary heroes
are given in a pension bill recently reported
to the House by Mr.. Beauchamp Clark, of
Missouri. The beneficiary of the bill is Mrs.
Hannah Lyons, a woman ninety-one years OF
age. She is the daughter of John Russell,
a private in Col. Clover's famous
marine regiment, which rendered such
conspicuous services during the Revolution
airy War, notably at Princeton, Saratoga
and Valley Forge, and in transporting the
army of Washington across the ice-bound
Delaware on the night before the battle of
Trenton. This battle has recently been COM
memorated by the erection of a monument
at Trenton, N. j., and the statue of a pr1-
vate soldier on guard at the door of the
monument is that of her father, John Rus
sell, of Marblehead.
Mrs. Lyons is also a niece of the naval
revolutionary hero, James Hugford, whose
successful capture of the British transport,
Hope, laden with munitions of war, in May,
17T6, in full view of the British feet anchor
ed in Nantucket Roads, supplied Washing
ton and his army with arms and ammunl-
ton at a critical time in the affairs of the
colonies. Such is the patriotic record of the
family from which this aged lady descended

means of subsistence gone.

WHAT! More asphalt9
cost of Trolley Slaughter.

Cost of the Trolley Slaughter.
The Newark Sunday Call states o
good authority" that judgments ag-
gregating $72, 600 were obtained last
year against the Consolidated Trac-
ton Company in Newark for personal
injuries inflicted on citizens by the
cars. All these were paid by an in
surance company which guarantees
the Consolidated against loss by acct
dents of this kind; but the CGN
shrewdly remarks that the point must
be very nearly reached where the
underwriters will refuse to insure the
company, the certainty of loss being
too great.
In this city, no such amount OF
damages can have accrued, even ID
prospective; but then the trolley cars
have only been running a few months
We have had a couple Of people killed
(maximum damages s., 900 apiece),
and three or four injured. Juries are
so severe in dealing with the COM
pany, that the proof of c~ontributory
negligence has small efficacy in re-
ducing the awards. So. perhaps the
company is liable to be mulcted to the
tune of $40, 900 TO $25, 900 in the courts
of Hudson County.
Now, this is a very serious matter.
The company cannot afford to keep
on paying awards at this rate. Even
the premiums paid by it for accident
insurance are enormous, and if iG had
to assume all the risks itself, it would
be bankrupted at the present rate.
The end must soon be reached, n
a or another. Either rapid transit
will have to go slow or someone must
come to the front with a life saving
device that will really save. There Is
a chance here for some bright young
man to make a fortune. Whoever
can hit upon just the right thing may
go and spend the rest of his life en-
joying the pleasures of dear Paree."
