SAVANNAH, Feb GA mob OK 5,Oot
surrounded the Masonic Temple where
sx-Priest Slattery lectured last night. AL
che windows in the hall were broken. The
entire white military force of the city was
out. Serious trouble appeared imminent.
The mob was driven back several times al
the'point of the bayonet, and finally peace
was restored. The mob was composed al
most exclusively of Roman Catholics.
The mob challenged the forboarance OF
the state troops to the extreme and but
for the GOODNESS of Mayor Meyers and the
officers commanding the troops, blood
might have been the result Bayonet

gathered about Masonic Temple, one of
the prominent buildings of the city and
situated in the heart of Savannah, stub
bornly refused to retire. This was the re-
suit of Mayor Meyers refusal TO interfere

nounoe the Roman Catholic church, of
which he had been a member ut one tim O.

issued instructions to Chief McDermott TO
have the entire available police force on
hand at Masonic Temple. Fifteen police
men were stationed inside the hall and
thirty others were massed in front. BY z

When Slattery arrived the mob had not
assumed large enough proportions to cope
with the police. BY o'clock a bowling
mob of over 1900 surrounded Masonic

about 400. including number of ladies'
The lecturer had hardly begun before
brickbats and cobblcstones began to rain
on the windows. The police had closed
all the heavy inside shutters, thus saving
the audience from injury, only two or
three being injured by falling glass.
Wanted to XIII "the Renegade"
By o'clock the mob numbered prob
ably 1000. Cries of XIII him." "Down
with Slattery, death to the renegade"
were heard. The lecture closed at $3.50
o'clock and it was apparent that it meant
the loss of many lives for the lecturer and
audience to leave the hall. Upstairs Il num-
Der of members of secret organizations who
had cheered Slatterys declaration that he
belonged to them had gathered around
the ex-Driest to defend him as he left the
hall. A number, it was evident, had
come armed in anticipation of trouble.
AS the ex-priest was about to leave the
hall with his friends the chief of police
stopped them and refused TO allow any
one to go downstairs. 1t was soon seen
that the police could not prevent murder,
so the signal for al the military COM
panies to turn out was sent in

1t was some time before she would con.
sent to leave her husband. She was as
sured that under no circumstances would
the mob be allowed to hurt him. The
four companies of guards were then
banked about the door of the hall with
the police, and Slatterly was brought
down, and completely hidden by his
guards, who had orders to shoot If any at
tack was made, was safely taken to his
hotel, where the doors were all locked and
guards stationed
At Masonic Hall the other seven COM
panies remained as II guard for Mrs. Stat
terry and to prevent further damage to
property. Finding that Slattery had gone
the mob largely dwindled away. Mrs.
Slattery was placed in carriage later in
the night and with strong force of police
was taken to the hotel.
Mrs. Slattery is booked for lecture
this afternoon and Slattery for one to-
night. Threats are made that they will
be driven from the city today. Promi-
nent Roman Catholics and the priests are
using their influence to quell the riotous
element and to induce them to pay no at
tention to Slattery's attacks on Catholi-
cism.
Several policemen were so injured that
they had to be sent home. Several of the
militia were wounded by being struck by
stones. Slattery's manager was knocked
senseless with "a sandbag.

Mob Derides the Militia.

The signal is eleven taps on the fire
bells, but when it sounded the mob de-
rided il. Bring on your military" some
of the leaders shouted "To'h---- -
with them; they can't save Slattery" In
ten minutes the Georgia Hussars, dis
mounted, and the ten compan les of militia
were on the ground, formed line and
with bayonets ahead of guns loaded with
ball cartridges slowly forced the sullen
mobbaok until the troops formed o square
around the building. In the hall the au-
dience was still penned up, some of the
women were crying and those who ven-
tured to glance out at the risk Of broken
head saw the mob and the long lines OF
military in all directions.
Vicar General Cafferty the highest
Roman Catholic prelate in the city, came
on the ground and begged the mob TO dis
perse. He said they We're disgracing their
religion, but his words had no effect except
in few instances and he left. Finally a
double line of soldiers was formed and,
while the rest OF the military kept the
crowd back, nearly all of the audience
passed out of the house amid Kisses. Stat
terry and his wife and few men remained
in the hall. Colonel w. w. Gordon, of
the First Georgia cavalry, informed Stat
tery's wife that it was his intention to
leave the First regiment ard the Hussars
to protect the hall while the guards bat

Victim. Of an Explosion.

j. g. West, we'll known contractor,
who had been under treatment at the Good
Samaritan hospital, was taken to the insane
a,slum last evening, says the Euexing Tele.
gram of Wednesday. His case Is par
tic .larly sad one. About three weeks ago,
Mr.. West, who had been engaged in blast
rock at Marshtield, Coos county, for the
i-tties, was sitting on keg of black pow
der, 10 shaft, talking to another man.
when terrific explosion occurred. Mr..
West was blown . considerable distance,
his clothes being literally torn off his back,
hut his physical injuries were comparatively
tr hlng. The shock to his nervous system,
though, rendered HIN insane; and if he eve
3eoovers il will be due to his good physical
institution aud bis regular habits Of life.
His companion on that occasion met with
instant death.
A year ago Mr.. West had almost a sim
liar experience. He was in the midst of
$50 pounds + giant powder, when 1t ex-
ploded. He threw himself a,t on the
ground and escaped without skin abra.

A cnroner's inquest was held over the
remains of George Rief, who was killed
by fellow convict named Hoyt at the
Walla Walla penitentiary Monday. They
W re working IN a pit near the jute mill,
and Hoyt u ed an axe to commit the
act.
We copy from the Statesm IN the follow
ing.
The first witness called was Phil
Berry, guard, who testified as follows:
WAS on duty near where these men
were working at the time the event h p
pened; knew both parties by sight;
during the forenoon R ,if went into the
pit where Hoyt was working, but did
not know whether the men conversed or
not A short time after Reif returned
and Hoyt followed him; saw Hoyt take
up something, but supposed it was
pick, presuming tina he intended to use
1t in his work; noticed hoyt striking
at something, and at the first blow Reif
dropped; Jaw Hoyt strike two or three
times afterwards, but could not see the
men because OF the high embankment
around the pit At the frst blow the
men ran out OF pit and call d. Hoyt
was the last man to leave the pit and
went into the engine hou;e; when
Berry came up he saw Rsif lying on
the ground with cash in the siie and top
OF head; said that Hoyt had been
sp ken + as crazy, but had never seen
anything in his actions to lead him to
believe him so. Reif was al Ways con-
sidered to be a good man.
"a. P. Tubbs, overseer. in his exam
ination said: I had the gang, amonz
which these two men were working di-
rectly under my charge; did not know
Ref; heard the call of the men and saw
them running out OF the pit and knew
something was wrong; whisLled for
them to line up. Hoyt was the last man
out OF the pit and he started alone to-
wards the yard gate, then turned and
went towards engine room; after lining
men up, went to the pit and found Reif
lying on the ground axe covered with
blood; pit about lOx2J feet and five feet
deep from top OF bank; had had trouble
with Hoyt TIE same morning; he did
not want 10 go to work and being rep
rimanded exhibited temper and at one
time broke his shovel on the ground;
saw him later and he appeared to be in
better spirits; always considered him
somewhat crazy"
Hoyt was actuated by revenge, be-
cause Rief was the principal witness
against him on his trial for murder in
Tacoma. The coroner's jury rendered a
verdict tha the 'saii Ere Hoyt did kill
and murder the said Geo Reif with pre-
meditated malice +"

Wonderful Strength.


In the sixteenth century there lived
a remarkably s+rong man, major,
named Barsanas. One day he took
up an anvil weighing 500 pounds and
hid 1t under his cloak. He could crush
between his fingers the limbs Of big
animals One day, seeing crowd
looking at an enormous dancing bear,
he offered to wrestle with the ami
NAL. The major threw the bear
down several times, and judging it
unworthy Of further struggles slew
the animal with his fist and carried
it away on his shoulders amid the
cheers Of the crowd.
Another day, seeing several officers
of his regiment surrounded by an
angry crowd, he ran to them, knock
ing people down right and left as a
child does with pack Of cards. The
crowd, exasperated, turned round on
him, but seizing two of his assailants,
one with each hand, he used them as
clubs on the crowd, who, astonished
at his extraordinary display Of
strength, quickly drew back. Once
he squeezed to pulp the hand Of a
man who wanted to fight him.
Barsabas' sister was also remarka-
BILE for her strength. Some burglars
entered a convent where she was.
She threw one out of the window
and killed two others with a pillar
she tore down and used as club
Bow Bells.

A Miners Luck.

We publish b. following from the Aus
tr,lian Mining Standard for the encour 'gr-
ment of some cltiz z.ns Of rne D ,lles " no IN
tend te sex the gold fields on the Yukon
river next summer:
A man named Adams was prospecting
somea here in the mountains in New Mex
lco. While YEARLY trudging along one
not d ~ through the gulch, where the sun
had a good chance at mis- back, he suddenly
smelled smoke. The phenomenon struck
him as odd aud he glanced quickly In every
direction to ascertain the origin Of the
smok but, seeing nothing, he resumed HE
j urney. A moment later the smell re-
turned att ong-r than ever, snd the breez.
Just then blowing in the direction In which
ne was walking. light wreath OF vapOI
curled about his ears, aud gave him to un-
.ierstapd that his haverssck was on fire.
L ke al mlners, he carried a large lens for
the purpo OF exsmruTg the specimens
and the sand Is his pan, aud the truth
q rshed upon him For want of room b.

rays of the sun had been concentrated n
his nav-rssck, which was thus set on fire.
As among its ntents were twelve or fifteen
poun"s of powder, he lost no time in
dropping the dangerous burden and
getting away as far as possible
before 1t exploded. The haversack fell be-
tween two huge stones and cuddled down
out Of sight Adams soon reached a safe
end disconsolatsly watched the
smoke arising from his so worldly posses
sions. Suddenly there was deaiening re-
port. The grrund trembled, and Adams
logged behind a huge stone to escape the
fragments of flying rock. Rising. he went
TO the spot to gather what be could iud,
when his eyes almost started cut of his
head at seeing the quartz tn had been
blown up fairly glitteripg with gold. His
powder had done better on it's own account

A Hearse His Family Carriase.

Indians can be induced to buy
anything when they have money" I"
said C. L. Seuter. ''At Waggoner,
I. T., I saw family Of Indians,
dressed in the brightest colors and
the brave, with a stovepipe hat, rid.
ing on top of as handsome hearse
as I ever saw. Upon inquiry !
learned that he had received a consid-
erable sum of money few months
before and made up his mind that he
wanted some fine blankets for his
family and carriage. The agent to
whom he went for the vehicle showed
him a catalogue, and the picture Of a
hearse struck the red man as the
finest thing there was there. It cost
1000. but the Indian had the money
and cared nothing for the expense,
SO the grewsome equipage is now q
common sight in that locality, with
the family riding on top."--Cincin-

There are large quantities of sturgeon
being caught in the Columbia river near
this city. We noticed sleighload Of
empty boxes being hauled through the
streets tins morning, and were
informed that these will be used in
shipping these fish to Portland, where
they are frozen in refrigerating works
and then sent to eastern markets. An
old fisherman informed us that during
the wlnt season sturgeon flock in deep
places in the river, and can be easily
caught 18th properly baited hooks. In
