they FAILED TO SCREAM
Story of One of the Two Adult Sur
vivors Of Ku-Cheng Massacre.
Fierce AErsrians Alone To Bla me, and
They Would Have De.isted II the
women Had Only Screamed.

Dover, n. H, Nov. 29.-Miss Mabel C.
Hartford, one of the two adult survivors
of the HwasaDg massacre Of August /.
near Ku-Cheng, China, has arrived in this
her native city.
In conversation yesterday Miss Hart
ford said that when she goes back she
will engage In pioneer work in the Long
Bing district, which is two days travel
up the river, or about 100 miles above
Ku-Cbeng.
Miss Hartford was asked what has been
the attitude OF the Chinese people toward
the missionaries in the region where the
massacre occurred, and she replied:
The fricndlicst possible. We have al
ways received the kindest treatment from
the inhabitants and were considered their
friends. They had no part In the massacre
and expressed the deepest regrets for It's
occurrence.
There was 10 riot or uprising of the
masses against us, as many people In this
country suppose. Members of the secret
society of veEetarians were the sole per-
petrators of the atrocities. The feeling
against them is bitter, for they are sworn
not only to kill all foreigners, but TO kill
aud overturn the Chinese government. They
are confined principally, however, to the
province OF ku-Cheng.
"There were not more than eighty men
who made the attack, aud their object was
to kill us, not because we Were missiona-
ries, but because we were foreigners. They
did not use the word missionary"
Miss Hartford said that the mau who
attacked her was the one who killed Miss
HesSic Newsomb. He had already knocked
Miss Hartford down and was beating her
with the butt end of his spear, when
servant from her house came to the rescue.
She then managed to escape. and ran
to house on the hill some distance away.
Three other vegetarians. who had been sent
along with this one TO kill her. stopped to
plumber the servants from the Stewart
house, who were carrying some things
away. and that is why, she thinks, she was
enabled to escape.
She says the vegetarians are extremely
and after the massacre re-
marked that the foreign women were very
quiet while being attacked. 'If they had
said they, I'VE could not have
killed them"
She believes the authorities captured the
men who took part in the massacre. and
that they intend, If possible. TO stamp out
the society.

Thompson has practically admitted that
he did not cover the course. The time that
he is credited with, % minutes and 8 Sec

entire course WREN they saw him return to
the start.
\ meeting OF the judges, Harry Jones,

Gurmully s Jeffery Company. All
protests and evidence will then be received
and given due consideration.
If both Thompson and Rhodes are dis
qualified, the time prize will go TO T. n.

the first prize to c. g. Gatclcy of the PO-
tonIac Wheelmcn. Mudd was given half.

with George S. Ball of the Washington Road
Club. He covered the course In % min
utes 80 seconds, which beats the record
held by c. E. Cause by six seconds.

Ball and Mudd rode over the entire course
together. aud Bah was only q second be-
hind Mudd at the finish. G. G. Gateley, to
whom the first prize will go, is ready to
swear that ucitiier Thompson nor Rhodes
passed him.
Mr.. Macarthur, the promoter OF the race,
in speaking OF the protests. said that there
was little doubt but what there was some
crooked riding. Thompson could not have
gone over that road" lie said, "in the time
with which he is credited to save his life.
He is not very fast man, and IL would
take a hummer to cover the distance in
anything like 81 minutes and o seconds"
The distribution or prizes will be post

the bottom. II Thompson and Rhodes are
disqualified il VIII move all the others up

Seen at Washington Crossing.
Lambertville, N. j., Nov. 29.-The Wash
ington Crossing ghost, with long white
whiskers, remained out of sight for 4 couple
of nights after his exploits were recently
published, but he is again a this old tricks.
Thursday night the captain Ofa canalboat
saw his whiskerlets sitting astride the to W.
line. The captain yelled for his mate, who
also declared that he could plainly see the
apparition. A chunk of coal was thrown
through the visitor from GhostIand, and then
he disappeared.
The same evening a ghostly hand offered
a letter to brakeman on coal train near
Washington Crossing. He went to grasp the
letter, and his fingers closed on thin air.
Persons who have seen the ghost at close
quarters claim that it wears the tattered
remnants of a Continental soldiers uniform.
The fact that it hasbeen seen almost nightly
since the Washington memorial tablet was
dedicated has given rise TO the theory that
it is the shade of a Revolutionary hero lin
gering around this historic spot.

not ripe for presenting to the people
the grandest monetary system ever yet
conceived.
Let us meet at once this gang of con-
spirators who are undermining the
liberties of the people and planning
universal slavery for the millions of
producers in this great nation, through
their nefarious system of private bank
ing and excessive usury.
But somebody says, in alarm: "Do
you mean to make paramount the sill
yer issue?" By no means We should
not emphasize one phase of the money
question, but the whole, by demanding
the attention it deserves, while the
people are ready to consider it.
Our platform, as it stands, contains
planks enough on this question alone
to constitute national platform.
First-We are prepared to meet the
emergency which exists, and determine
whether the government shall issue the
money of the people, or delegate that
power to private corporations for pri-
vate profit
Second-0ur platform calls for an in
creased national currency that shall be
safe, sound and flexible, and full
legal tender for all debts, public and
private.
Third-For the unlimited coinage
and issue of gold and silver at the ratio
of Is to /.
Fourth-For the establishment of
postal savings banks by the govern
ment; and another plank might be add
ed calling for law regulating usury,
or excessive interest.
Now let us, nerved by the magnifi-
cent increase in our vote at the last
election, grasp the opportunity the old
parties have given us, to make known
the true position of the people on this
vital question, and with fresh courage,
meet and defeat in the political arena
the enslavers of nation, the bankers
and their brood.

THE mUNIclpAL CONTEST +.

On next Tuesday the citizens will
be called on again to choose officers
for the next two years. There are
two tickets in the field, one styling
itself as the Municipal ticket, the other
as the Citizens ticket. DR.. Minor
heads the municipal ticket while
Mayor Vincent, received for the third
time the nomination at the hands Of
the citizens. Both of these gentlem an
are we'll known to our city readers and
probably better known to the majority
Of the citizens of Hutchinson than to
the editor. AS there are no polite al
lines drawn populists, republicans or
democrats can use their Judgment in
voting for either without in anyway
departing from their party fealty.
Both gentlemen are republicans.
For the office of police judge ex-
County Treasurer Anderson crosses
swords with the present incumbent.
Both Of these gentlemen are we'll
known, and both are republicans
For city treasurer, the contestant S
are both ladies'. Mrs. WetheTs on the
citizens ticket against Mrs. Consta mt,
the present treasurer.
For school treasurer, Mrs. Puter-
baugh will contest for the place now
held by Capt Smith, who is the nomi-
nee on the citizens ticket.
For justice Of the peace, r. A. Camp
bell and L. F. Cain, are put forward
by the municipal party, while the clti :
zens ticket is represented by Geo. Bar
clay and Dan Reed. Right here we
want to call the attention Of the
populists to one candidate for justice of
the peace. That man is Dan Reed. No
populist can vote for him, nor can any
man who has any regard for decency
in Office. Dan Reed as justice of the
peace and with brother. in-law Fall as
county attorney would mean the piling
up of costs in the district court, and
the filling of Dan Reeds pockets. He
Is a dangerous man. The Office while
it is a minor Office requires an honest
man. George Barclay is MI. Reeds
running mate. Not one word can any
man say agsins tMr. Barclays honesty
or ability. The GAZETTE has here
tofore said great many hard things
about Mr.. Campbell and Mr.. Cain,
things that we're prompted by parti-
san spirit. But as to their honesty, or
capacity in conducting justices Office,
We can say truthfully that the people
should choose two of the three last
named gentlemen. The election of
Dan Reed to the Office Of justice of the
peace would be a disgrace to the city,
For constable, three names are pre-
sented for your consideration, Dick
Hodge, Tom Bishop and Sam Morris.
Mr.. Hodge was elected two years
ago and has been an examplery officer,
aud should be reelected, as fer Mr..
Bishop he has never taken any part in
politics before which is good recon-
mendatiOn. Sam Morris is a dead
politician, and has been walking
around looking for something ever
since he went out of the county clerks
