Beatty's Organs and Pianos.

Hon. Daniel F. Beatty, of Washing
ton, New Jersey, the great Organ
and Piano manufacturer, is building
more Organs and Pianos than ever.
In 1870 Mr.. Beatty left home a pen
niless plow boy, and by his indomit-
able will he has worked his way up
20 as to sell so far, nearly 100, 900 of
Beatty's Organs and Pianos since
1870. Nothing seems to dishearten
him; obstacles laid in his way, that
would have wrecked an ordinary man
forever, he turns to an advertisement
and comes out of it brighter than
ever. His instruments, as is well
known, are very popular and are to
be found in all parts of the world.
We are informed that during the
next ten years he intends to sell 200,
900 more of his make; that means a
business of SIC, Zoo, 900, if we average
them at S1O0 each. 1t is already the
largest business of the kind in exist
ence. Write or call upon Daniel F.
Beatty, Washington, New Jersey, for
catalogue.

DOUGLAS INTERVIEWED.
He Makes Statement of Territory Con-
dItIons TO the Washington Post and
Outlines His Plan of Campaign.

Mr.. Clarence b. Douglas, of Ard
more, |. T., is at the National. tie
was lately elected by a mass meeting
of non-citizens of the Chickasaw
Nation to represent them in a matter
of great Importance before the pres
ent congress. The non-citizens are
the white element of the population
who are allowed by the Indians to
come in and reside in the Territory
on payment of a small tax.
''All we want" said Mr.. Douglas,
sis to get congress to pass a town
site law, that will enable the white
people of the Territory who have
gone in and built up thriving towns
and villages to have some kind of
systematic government. In my town
Ardmore, which has population of
5000, we have no Mayor, no police,
no sanitary regulations, and in fact
are utterly destitute of municipal
mac 1inery. That we get along so
well is high tribute to the charac-
ter and intelligence of our citizens.
"We shall appeal to congress for
relief. This has nothing to do with
the question of statehood; if that
comes around eventually, well and
good, but until then the people of
the towns ought TO be given chance
to live in accord with civilized
methods. Under the present regime
the owner of fine biocS of build
ings has no valid title, and occupies
the land only by per iission of some
+ Indian, who does not himself own il
as all real property in the tribe is in
common. '-Washipgton Post.

BEVERLY HURT BY TOUGHS
Fearfully Gut With Razors and
Beaten With Fence Palings.
Disorder Mt Asbury Church Lawn
Fete-His AssaiIants Fled and
Were Not Caught.

A murderous assault was made shortly
before midnight last night upon Robert
Beverly, the colored janitor of the Thompa
son school by a crowd of half drunken negro
toughs. There was lawn fete in progress
on the grounds of Asbury NJ. E. Church,
corner of Eleventh and X streets northwest,
and Beverly was called upon to preserve
order.
Several men and women became engaged
in a heated argument tow ards the latter part
of the evening and as their conversation vas
both loud and profane, he told them TO keep
quiet The negroes thought this an insult
and proceeded to do Beverly up.
They chased him out of the yard, up
Eleventh street and about midway in the
square they caught him. Razors were
produced, pieces of fences broken off, and
STOKES picked up.
The crowd of six men jumped upon
Beverly and beat and butchered him un
mcrcifuIly.
Perhaps the only thingthat saved Beverly's
life was that the crowd saw policeman
at the corner and made their escape. The
injured man, bleeding from wounds in his
body, and in his head, ran to the corner
OF Eleventh ana l. SlFtttS, where TUE pOiiCc-
man was standing, and fell to the ground.
AS the assault was made nearly square
away from the officer and Beverly made
no outcry, the assail.nts had no difficulty
in making their escape. call was sent
to No. 2 station for the patrol wagon
and Beverly was hurried Off TO the Emer-
gency Hospital.
AT the hospital il was found that he had
been cut in five different places with
razor, one being over six inches long and
so deep that 1t had severed one orthe arteries
in the back. Another deep cut was found
in the top of his head, and his right eye
was badly bruised and swollen. Drs-
FurIong. Shortiidge, and johnson worked
upon him over a half hour, nd after twelve
stitches had been taken in his back and
six in his head aud other injuries attended
to, lie was removed to his home. No. 435
Ridge street northwest. Beverly is not
acquainted with any of the men who as
saulted him, but the police think they can
ascertain who they are and several arrests
will very likely follow.
