R0YALISTS DEFEATED BY

Collector General Carter Killed
Martial Law Proclaimed-What
Precipitated the Trouble.
An uprising Of the Royallsts, supporters
OF ex-Queen Lilluokalani, against the Ha-
waiian Government occurred in Honolulu on
Sunday night. January6 A raid was made
on the rendezvous Of the plotters, who, after
q fight, retreated to Diamond Head,
an extinct crater, back of Homo
lulu. Their leaders were Rob-
ert Wilcox, the half-breed, who
led the revolution OF 1889, and Sam Nowlein,
e1-Captain of the Queens Guards. Two
fights occurred, In both OF which the revolu-
tionists were beate losing about ten men.
Martial law was declared, and 150 conspir-
ators were arrested. President Dole, Of
Hawaii, has 1900 men whom he can put In the

By this time the rebels regainad thei,
courage and surrounded the house, firing
into It repeatedly. Leaving one man to
guard the prisoners, the officers returned
the fire, but without effect, as their assail-
ants could not be seen.
Realizing that their case was desperate,
and that word must be got to town at all
hazards, It was resolved that Brown and
Parker should make dash for their horses,
which were tied near the house. This was
done with success, and they were soon at
the nearest telephone. Alfred Carter, who
had been missing since the wounding OF his
sousin, Was supposed to be dead, but In
Tor the purpose Of getting a doctor for his
cousin. He had already telephoned to the
Marshal's office, best les finding q doctor,
with whom he returned to the scene OF the

we're met with volley. Dropping to the
ground, Carter returned three shots, but,
realizing the imposstbillty OF getting into
the house unhurt, he and the doctor re-
treated. About this time the natives were
advancing on the house to take 1t by storm,
when one OIL the officers told Bertlemann he
would blow his brains out on the instant
the first man went inside the house and

The completion of portion of Pro-

River bound it on the east and south.
Its northern boundary was originally
on old wagon road from Georgetown

was Rock Creek, but it has passed
both of these limitations and has gone
two miles beyond the old Maryland
wagon road. which has now. with all
its angles and curves, become Florida

town are being included.

To East Tennessee Farmers.I

The East Tennessee Farmers
Convention, the pioneer of farmers
associations in the South, will hold
its twentieth annual session at
Knoxville on the Dist and 22nd of
May, next.
This organization was the first
and for many years the only farm
ers' organization of note in the
South, and to-day it stands pre-
eminent to any kindred association
in this country.
The chief value of this organiza-
ton lies in the fact that it is educa-
tional. 1t educates its members in
matters peculiar to their calling;
and in every way elevates, broad
ems their views and liberalizes
them.
Year after " ar the papers have
grown better and better and the
discussions more exhaustive. Here
the scientific farmer is brought face
to face with the practical farmer.
Their ideas are exchanged and
every member reaps the benefits.
Every phrase of agriculture and It's
a6juncts have been discussed.
Furthermore, these meetings do
not convene and adjourn and allow
their proceedings to benefit only
those so fortunate as to attend
them, but through the respect this
organization commands with your
state officials, the proceedings are
published and placed in the hands
of thousands unable TO attend these
meetings.
The twentieth annual meeting
promises to be the best since our
organization. You cannot afford to
miss it. You are, therefore, ur-
gently requested to attend this
meeting. Very truly yours,

SOUTHERN IMMIGRATION.

Never has the South attracted
such wide attention from people
throughout the North seeking eth
er profitable investments or homes,
as at present, and never before
were such efforts being made on
the part of the South to attract i'm
migration as is now being put forth
by few energetic persons in va
riOus sections.
The various railroads are also
lending their aid to the movement,
either in general way, or in the
interest of the sections traversed by
them, which is an enti.ely new
feature in the Soutk.
That the South is on the verge of
an era of unprecedented prosperity
there is no-doubt. 1t is acknowl.
edged by every commercial and
trade gazette published in the
North; it is commented upon by
hundreds Of papers in the West,
that prior to this year never
thought to make favorable mention
of the South; Northern railroads
are for the first time in their his
tory offering low rates of transport
tatiOn to the South; and hundreds
of people are taking advantage OF
these offers to explore section of
which they really know as little
about in business way rs though
separated from the Atlantic ocean.
While this movement is in pro-
gress the South must make the most
of it. The advantages of this sec
ton for fruit culture and as a place
of residence are visible to the eye
they need no Establishment. This
is a case where the truth will dc
better than an untruth, and we
have ample evidence to bear us out
in any reasonable statement.
