Two sensations have developed from the

was found in his rooms Saturday night

might take alarm and escape. Detectives
Calligan and Burns were on guard, one In

EXCITEMENT AT CHICAGO.
Mnss Meetings Held by ColOred PeO-
pIe-Two, Refugees, Stories


CHICAGO Aug 6.--Two colored women
Mrs. Mary Stanton and Mrs. Lizzie Dixdee
refugees from Spring Valley arrived in
this city tonight and the reports thsy give
of the treatment of the colored people at
that place have inflamed the negroes of Chi
cago to the highest pitch Mrs. Stanton is
a widow and since the attack made by the
Italians on the colored men at Spring VAL
ley her two sons have disappeared, and she
believes that both were killed. Mrs. Dixdee
has heard nothing from her husband since
that time, and believes him dead. Both
women say, In spite of statements to the
contrary from Spring Valley. that the re-
ports of the outrages have in no way been
exaggerated. They say that the colored
women and the children were assaulted by
the Italians and brutally beaten, and that 1t
is impossible for any colored woman to
walk the streets of the town without being
grossly insulted. They declare that all the
colored women in Spring Valley were given
until o'clock tonight to get out of town,
threats of bodily injury being made against
those who remained.
The mass meeting of colored men recon-
vened this evening in Arlington Hall, at
Thirty-first street and Indiana avenue. The
them to the highest pitch. and all manner
of violent threats were made against the
Italians at Spring Valley. For the first
time during the day the idea to move on
Spring Valley took definite shape, and COM
mittees were appointed to raise funds to
secure arms There was much excitement
at the afternoon mass meeting when a tele-
gram was read from Governor Altgeld
saying that the officials of Spring Valley
and Bureau county had not asked for aid,
and If they did it would be promptly sent
This did not suit the coiored men at all,
and there were loud cries that he was
temporizing with them; that ne knew the
local authorities would not call on him, and
the excitement grew so intense that the
most warlike language was used. Finally
cooler counsel prevailed, and ii was decided
to give Governor Altgeld time to act
A delegation called General Merritt to
ask that the United States troops be sent to
Spring Valley. They were courteously re-
ceived by General Merritt. who told the
committee that in the event of the failure
of the civil authorities to preserve order
and protect the colored people of Spring
Valley the fact should be communicated to
President Cleveland by telegraph. but he
did not anticipate that It would be neces-
gary for the national government to take
any steps in the matter.
At 1:21 to 1:30 this "wednesday mornire
the meeting was still going on. 1t was
decided, however. 10 appoint q committee
of five, which will visit Spring Valley this
morning and investigate matters. The

mittee suggests.

flee Of the Bethel NJ. p. Church. All
the details of the published program
we're faithfully carried out.
Rev. j. g. Austerberry, Of Somers
Point, began the day with an enthusiasts
tic experience meeting.
AT the hour of morning worship,
Rev. F. T. Tagg, d. D., editor of the
Baltimore Methodist Protestant, deliver
e. a sermon of wonderful power. His
subject, 1.-THE Enduring Word of Cod"
was a mastery revelation of the power
of the Bible in all the great events Of
history. In this sermon the Doctor
brought his highest thought and ripest
scholarship to the front, and yet the
simplicity of the sermon was such that
all could comprehend bis cheering mes
sage. Among other things the Doctor
said: ''In6delity, Skepticism and ra-
tionalism have never had aggressive
force except when the Church is world
ly and corrupt. That Gods answer to
the destructive higher criticism was
millions of Christian Endeavorers and
Epworth Leaguers reading the Bible
every day. That the mar who profess
ed to follow Christ and lived like the
devil was a curse to the cause of Christ,
for men expect the master to be like
his servant"
At 2:30 Supt. Yeager led a lively
Sunday School Convention. Addresses
we're made by the visiting ministers
and the pastor.
In the evening DR.. Tagg delivered a
touching and pathetic call to men and
women to be reconciled to Christ. ''If
a son ask for bread will he give him a
stone?" was the text. In well chosen
language, with high spiritual %fervor,
with a sincere desire to help, the speak
er tried to convince his hearers that,
God is always more willing to give than
we are to receive.
The Official Board resolved some
weeks before that there should be no
begging On the anniversary day. They
religiously adhered to their resolution;
there was no begging in the church
services. About a month before the
Pastor had given to the several men,
bers a thanks offering envelope. These
were brought in and aggregated S10O
in addition to this the Sunday School
gave over a hundred dollars thus
making the receipts of the day more
than $500.
Miss M. j. LanniDg, the church or
ganist, with the assistance of the Choir
rendered elaborate and charming music
at all the services.
AS the auditorium was well filled at
all the services, it may be truthfully
said, the First Anniversary was in all
points, a complete success.

Since 1878 there have been nine epidem-
les of d~ysentery in different parts of the
country in which Chamberlain's Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhpa Remedy was used
with perfect success. Dysentery, when
epidemic, is almost as evere and dangerous
as Asiatic cholera. Heretofore the best
efforts of the most skilled physicians have
failed to check its ravages, this remedy,
however, has cured the most malignant
cases, both of children and adults, and I'M
der the most trying conditions, which proves
it to be the best medicine in the world for
bowel complaints. For sale at Robbins
