A Dreadful State of Things.

1.-The night passed quiet Occasional fir
ing in other parts of the city kept us on the
qui vive. However, no mob ventured down
our street. We got into communication at
once with the consul and finally got guard
of six coldiers. He had dispatched a guard
to us the evening before and it failed to
come to us. The morning revealed a dread
full state of things. The missing began to
come in. The stories of hair-breadth escape
and thrilling experiences and horrible muir
ders were sickening in the extreme.

A Fayette County Tough Attempts TO
Shoot a Lady.
Connellsville Courier

A most dastardly attempt was
made Tuesday afternoon, to assault
and later shoot Miss S. Clara Leigh
ner of Slippery Rock, the elocution
ist of the p o. S. A and Jr 0. U. A.
NJ, at the Dunbar House, Dunbar,
Pa, by Isaac Williams, formerly of
this place, now of Scottdale. Miss
Leighner came to town on the IL ;0S
P. K r. train After getting off at
the depot Miss Leighner inquired
for hotel aud Williams, who was
standing nearby, offered to show her
TO the Dunbar House and carried her
satchel over for her. The lecturer
registered and was shown to her
room by the hotel porter. Williams
followed her and tried to gain an EN-
trance into her room, acting in a
most unbecoming manner Miss
Leighner reported the affair to the
clerk, who ordered him to leave the
Hotel at once Williams did so and
went into the bar room to borrow a
revolver. Being refused, he went to
the hardware store of P. Johnston
and bought an American bull dog
revolver, 3S calibre, and 80 cart
ridges. He came back to the hotel
and started upstairs with the weap
on in his coat pocket. Proprietor J.
j. Mcfarland caught him before he
got up the stairs. The bar tender,
Barney Baker, later took the revol.
yer out of Williams pocket and had
him arrested by officer Duncan. He
was given hearing before Squire
ID. X. Cameron and in default OF
$500 bail was taken to jail to await
trial.

Pleasure in California.

During the winter months the resi-
dents OF the Eastern States make the
best Of forbidding conditions and
amuse themselves in various ways by
a large expenditure of energy. They
work hard, but they have sport. They
must be careful TO avoid the numer-
Gus dangers with which very cold
weather surrounds them. All of their
efforts at amusement are a struggle
against forbldding and uncongenial
aspect of nature. They simply create
all the pleasure they get; nature, in
stead of helping them, presents a
constant protest against their pleas
ure. During these same months the
visitor in California simply has to sit
down and enjoy more pleasure than
his most active efforts could have Sc
cured in the Eastern States; and if he
wants TO double the pleasure which
mere inactivity affords, he can do so
with the least possible exertion. At
all times he has abundant sunshine in
California, for the rainy days are few
and Short and there is neither snow
nor ice to make him a prisoner. Flow
ers bloom increasingly in the garden,
and fresh fruits are always at hand.
Watermelons and Strawberries grace
his Christmas dinner.
All along the coast of California the
summers are cold enough to make
wooden clothing comfortable. In the
Eastern States the wretched inhabi-
tant wears the thinnest of clothing
and then suffers from the heat. The
Californian goes camping or strolling
through the woods with no fear of
drenching, for the California summers
are rainless. The mountain scenery
is of infinite variety and unapproach-
able majesty and beauty. Large and
elegant hotels abound at all the sea-
side resorts. Splendid vineyards and
orchards exist everywhere, and the
most gorgeous wild flowers abound.
All the most beautiful resorts and
wild retreats of California are reached
by the lines of the Southern Pacific
Company. Any of these agents of

Facts About Crooked Eyes.

When crooked, you see with but one
eye at a time.
The one you see best with does all
the work, while the other grows grad
ually blind, until of no use.
1t gives an uncertainty to the ex-
preston of your face, and is detri-
ment to you in business and society.
If only slight, it may cause double
vision, give pain in the eyes, and
headache on using them for close
work.
Scientifically selected glasses, OF
glasses and operation are the only
possible means of cure.
By the use of cocaine the operation
is so near painless as TO be borne by
children years old without complaint.
Mr.. Jacob Stokes daughter, }04
Frankstown avenue, East End, of that
age, had hers made perfect in one
operation by DR.. Sadler, s0I Penn
avenue, Pittsburg, and she said: mo,
it did not hurt. .

A Big Undertaking.

One Of the largest and grandest
projects of the Masonic fraternity of
this or any other country is now be
ing seriously discussed among lead
ing Masons in various portions Of
the United States, which if once
contaminated, will undoubtedly
prove the best aud most lasting mon
ument ever erected and dedicated by
this noble order, and be a fitting
finale to the work of the closing cen
tnry.
They are planning the establish
ment of a great National University,
for both sexes, to be controlled by
and in the interest of all Masons,
with q permanent endowment OF
not less than $4,000, 900, at which
the children Of all Master Masons,
whatever their means, can secure a
complete education, from the age OF
10 years and upward, along any line
of instruction which they may de
sire.
The scheme contemplates the cree
tion of a sufficient number of fire
proof university buildings to accom-
modate 10000 students, the estab
lishment Of preparatory or academ-
ic department, and departments OF
liberal arts, law, medicine, science
theology and technology also an n
dustrial school, thus being a true
university. While the child of no
living or dead Master Mason will be
refused admission to the institution
on account of lack Of means, it will
he in no sense a home or charitable
institution.
The plan contemplates, further
the uniforming of all students. the
boarding and rooming of them with
in the university grounds. and the
erection of homes for all such par
ents as are not willing to be sepa
rated from their children during
their term of education; such house:
to be transferred TO other parent:
when no longer needed. The loea
tion agreed upon for the institution
is beautiful tract of elevated lane
on the Ohio river, near the West
Virginia line, facing the Ohio rive
for three miles. The projectors an
ticipate no difficulty in securing thu
necessary endowment, in fact, they
ASSERT. the idea has met with an en-
thusiastic reception from all Mason!
who have been consulted.
All good Masons and the public
generally should encourage the I'm

lie County Fair, at PennsborO Drop
ped two Thousand Feet.

PENNsBoRo, w. Va, September IL.
William Deavis, aged %, who is
said to have had nine years expert
enee as balloonist, was employed
to day in assisting Louis Bush 10 tue
imitation Of his balloon at the Richie
county fair BY accident he was
caught in the ropes and carried
away.
When the balloon had assembled to
a height of about 500 feet, Bush cut
the parachute loose from the balloon
and descended, leaving Deavis sus-
pended at the mouth Of the balloon,
which rapidly arose To a height Of
about 1000 feet.
Deavis fell to the ground.
Mr. Deavis was from Bloomington,
Ohio.
The body ahghted in meadow
less than a quarter of mile east
from the fair grounds, making an
impression IN hard ground -four in
ches deep The body was lifeless, of
course, before reaching the ground.
The bones were all broken.
During the excitement caused by
the man falling from the balloon
William Seaman, an aged farmer, OF
this county, was struck by a horse
in the pacing race while crossing the
track, and received injuries which is
thought will prove fatal.
Despite these accidents, the fair
was a decided success and the races
were hotly contested.
