weighing 26 lbs. and still growing.
There were onions, squash, pump
kins, tomatoes, beans, corn, and in
fact everything that is necessary in
the grain and vegetable line. Mr..
Loughrilge deserves much praise for
the time and trouble spent in getting
this display together. They have

'Let each Of our western states assume
control If not the ownership OF all large
irrigation systems, present and prospect
i've. Let the state at least govern the
capitalization OF such corporations and
oblige them to make truthful reports of
their financial condition, subject to state
inspection, just as the principal eastern
states critically watch and inspect insur-
ancs companies. Then there would be
no trouble in selling irrigation bonds or
in getting eastern money for any desir-
able irrigation enterprise.
"We believe in going still farther, and
would have each state own the main ca
mails and reservoirs, and guarantee the
principal and interest of the bonds re-
quired for their purchase or construction.
Such bonds at 5 per cent. would COM
mand par, and probably 4 premium, in
both home and foreign money centers.
This would enable the state to guarantee
water at cost to all its people, which
would enormously stimulate immigration
and development. Which of our west
ern states will be first to rise to the occa-
sion ?"

Winfrid grasped the broadax land strid-
ing to the oak began to hew against it.
Then the sole wonder in Winfrid's life
came to pass. For, as the blade circled
above his head and the flakes OF wood
flew from the deepening cash in the body
of the tree, a whirling wind passed over
the forest. 1t gripped the oak from it's
foundations. Backward it fell like q
tower, groaning as it split IS under in four
pieces. But just behind it, and un.
harmed by the ruin, stood q young Dir
tree, pointing green spire toward the
stars.
Winfrid let the AK drop and turned to
speak to the people.
'This little tree, young child OF the
forest, shall be your holy tree tonight.
1t is the wood of peace, for your houses

An Exciting Scene.

Gen. Butler in speech at Edgefeld,
S. c., yesterday remarked that about
the only horse he had ever ridden, be-
sides that Of democracy, was the old
horse he was on in that very grove
when he met Chamberlain and his re-
publican myrmidons, and how he had
helped the people secure their liberties
and political freedom. Then Mr..
Henry Townes cried out: Eyes, gen.
eral, and the rascals burned your house
for it,"
Mr.. John Atkinson cried "He de-
MED all that in Washington, though"
probably referring to the Hamburg
riot).
Gen. Butler, quick as flash, turned
in the direction of the voice and said :
st is lie. l don't care who said it, |
say it's lie."
Mr.. Atkinson did not reply. He tat
tooed on the reporters desk with his
umbrella, but made no sign of move
ment. The scene that followed was
exciting. Men rushed up toward the
stand with their hands on their pistols,
and Others cursed. Fully dozen of
each faction, Tillman and Butler,
made for the stand to join those al
ready there. Henry Townes and
Charles Hammond were the first to
mount the stand. Townes turned on
the accuser, Atkinson, and cried out ;
sit is lie, and that man knows it,"
Gen. Butler tapped him on the shout
der and said Henry, III take care of
myself, get down from the stand"
Gen. Butler urged his friends to get
off the stand. He pleaded for quiet.
Gov. Tillman, perfectly cool, asked all
who were really his friends to be quiet,
and after deal of persuation things
quieted down aud Gen. Butler con-
tinued his speech. He took occasion
to say "Whoever states at any time,
on any occasion, to any body, that |
denied my participation in what was
done in Hamburg tells-I won't say a
lie. because there are ladies here, but
that which is not true"

AFTER THE INDUsTRIALs.-The peo-
ME of Washington and Georgetown
have grown weary of the industrials,
and the police yesterday began the
work ofarresting those caught begging
in the streets Of those cities and took
up half a dozen Of them under the va
grant law. When taken in custody the
man had sacks filled with provisions
which they had in many instances eX-
torted from people, generally from the
colored race. by telling them if they
were refused the army would come to
town and help Themselves. The beg,
CARS were arrested on the complaint OF
storekeepers and housekeepers who are
solicited every day to contribute to-
wards keeping these men in idleness.
The industrials were much incensed at
the police, and seemed to think that ~
asmuch each carried with him license
from Frye TO beg, that the police had
no jurisdiction over them. Their case
will come up in the Police Court to-
day. when, the accused say, Congress
man Pence and others will appear TO
defend them.

TAKEN FROM A WRONG PATH
will answer no more questions, as
want nothing in the papers about this, >,
exclaimed non-plussed light-haired
young woman nj police headquarters
this evening. She was attired in i'm
maculate white, and she shook her foot
/ nervously while she toyed with the
edging on her basque. She was seven
teen, she said, though she looked older
Her name is Miss Lille Rodgers and
she is from Fredericksburg. 1t was the
same old story She had been decoyed
into house in the northeastern section
of the city and had been rescued from
the grasp of a procuress, and was now
awaiting the arrival of relatives from
another city who would take her home
Her story is as follows: She was born
and reared in Fredericksburg, and on
one occasion had paid a visit of two
weeks to this city, being entertained at
the residence of a well-known and es-
teemed citizen. Last summer she stayed
with relatives in Washington, and while
there made the acquaintance of man
who took her to River View. On the
steamer her escort introduced her to
Kate Smith, of this city. Upon return
ing TO her home Miss Rodgers opened
correspondence with this woman, and
last Wednesday she concluded to re-
visit Alexandria. She was met here
by the son of her former host in Alex
andria who was accompanied by an
other young man, and conducted to
Kate Smiths house, since which time
she has been visited by one of the
youngsters, although she denies that
she has been guilty of any improper
conduct, nor that she was aware of the
character of the house in which she
had been introduced. This morning
Captain Webster, of the police force,
received a telegram from Fredericks-
burg to arrest the young woman and
detain her until friends could arrive
and take her home. Officer Davis pro-
ceeded to Kate Smiths house after the
girl, but was told by the proprietress
that she was not there, though it is the
general opinion that the female he was
searching for was in the house at the
time. The officer, however, got on her
trail later, and found her on the wharf
and took her in custody. Miss Rodgers
was interviewed by several persons
while at the station house, and the
questions and cross-questions pro-
pounded to her confused her consider
ably. She said she discovered the
character of her hostess's house this
morning, and had left it for good when
arrested. 1t is said she telegraphed
her people after arriving here that she
was married, but upon being question
ed as to this she denied having done so.
Kate Smith was particular to tell some
one the young woman had been guilty
of no improperly while in her house,
and Miss Rodgers herself took occasion
TO make similar assertion while in
the Mayors office. Kate Smith claims
the girl made protlers TO her to become
an inmate of her house, but the young
woman emphatically denies the charge.
The Fredericksburg Star says at is
rumored that Miss Lille Rodgers, who
left here on the excursion train yester-
day, was married in Alexandria TO Mr.
Smith, of Chicago" No license fer
such a marriage has been issued in this
