The proposed pan American charac-
ter Of the meeting has met with hearty
approval everywhere from the agri-
cultural and metropolitan press, from
the leading agriculturists of this and
other countries, from the ministers
representing other American countries
and actually from Secretary Of Agri-
culture Morton, who writes that he
will certainly attend the meeting at
Atlanta, but cannot promise to speak.
AS the master of the national grange
and others very DESTROYS of an oppor-
tunity to pay their respects to Mr..
Morton will also be present, it is gen.
orally believed that the voluble secre-
tary of agriculture viii have something
to say. In speaking of the pan-Ameri-
can parliament, the Chicago Inter
Ocean says: 1T hardly is necessary to
say that the Inter Ocean heartily APP
proves of the project. Whatsoever
tends to bring representatives of the
great agricultural interests Of the world
together is deserving of approval.
Farming is now trade of national and
relationship to all other
trades. The interests of the modern
farmer are worldwide. Therefore a
pan-American agricultural parliament
is not only desirable but necessary"

SARAH HACKETT,
Outdoor Work Preferred.

Some years ago young Irishman was
hunting for work among the farmers
of western town at harvest time.
He made his application to a be-
nevolent looking farmer who was
attracted by the young mans frank,
merry face, but was not really in need
of extra help. "Can you GRADER" he
asked, after moments hesitation.
"Cradls, is it?" repeated the young
Irishman, in bewilderment. THAT Oh

THE TABLES TURNED
AND MONTGOMERY GOT A DRUBBlNG.
An Off Day for King cIausen-The Memphis Team Dsband- Additional lntelli-
 gence of the Races.

Montgomery, July 23.-(SpeciaL)-The baseball aggregation turned the tables on Hayes colts this afternoon by giving them a good clubbing for yesterdays shutout. About FOO people pulled long and hard for the locals, but the latters efforts to make more than two scores were fruitless. They could do very little with McFarlands puzzling curves at critical points, when a hit or two would have brought some scores.
 It looked to the crowd like Clausen, who is the Li Hung Chang of the league had the dumps. Anyhow his mission today was as void of accomplishment as that celebrated oriental who held out apparent peace to the Japs. From the start Montgomery's errors fell thick and fast, at most inopporrune times, too when they counted effectually. Peoples and Langford had an off day, while Ar mour S rest yesterday made him slow to- day. Notwithstanding this. however, if the locals could have hit Mcfarland at more opportune stages the result would have been different. The loss of today s game gives Montgomery a record of live games out of eight since their return home

INDIAN WAR AHEAD.

The Bannocks Are Incensed at the Massacre
 of Prisoners.
 Salt Lake City, Utah. July 29.-Advices from Jacksons Hole indicate that the position of the settlers are becoming very critical, and unless the troops get there quickly it is probable that general mas sacre of whites will take place. Thirty five men left Jackson's Hole for Hoback canon to arrest Indians for killing elk cows and otherwise breaking the game laws. They took seventeen Indian pris- oners, and on the way back the reds at tempted to escape and a fight ensued in which all the Indians were killed but one papoose.
 Several of the whites were severely wounded, but none will die. The Bannock Indian warriors are assembling in force on the Hoback river and are sending away their squaws and children, which indicates that they mean to fight. The Indians are greatly ineensed at the kill ing of the prisoners, and the situation is so critical that a general rising might occur at any moment. The Bannocks are said to be 400 strong
 The cavalry troops are pushing to the scene of hostilitles with all possible speed Meantime the settlers are en- trenched and waiting an attack by the Indians.

oHIvALRY IN THE ROUGH.

The Mob Shouted, "We Won't Endanger a
 Lady's Lifel''
 Live Oak, Fla, July 23.-At o'clock this morning a mob of 200 men rode into this place and attempted to storm the jail, their object being to lynch George Mitchell and Mike Stevens, two negro murderers.
 Sheriff Hawkins lives at the jail with his family. and the mob made demand on him for the keys. The sheriff refused and the mob began to batter down the door with sledge hammers. The sheriff pleaded with the mob to desist in vain. Finally he said: Boys. my wife Is sick up stairs and l am afraid this excite ment will kill her. Go away for her sake. I will go to Tallahassee and beg Governor Mitchell to let those negroes hang"
 The appeal was effective and the mob dispersed, shouting: "We won't en- danger a lady's life"
 Mike Stevens and George Mitchell, the negroes wanted, and Henry Brown, were convicted and sentenced to hang for the murder of Alfred Ryberg, a white man. Brown was hanged last Wednesday, but at the last moment the other two were respited. This caused great Indignation and lynchings have been threatened since, as Mitchell and Stevens are as guilty as Brown, although he swore on the scaffold that he alone murdered Ky berg. There is no doubt that the men will be lynched unless the governor per mits them to be hanged.

BRITISH ELECTIONS.
Sir William Vernon Harcourt Returned on the
 Second Trial.

 London. July 23-Tonight the standing of the various parties in the house of commons is as follows: Conservative. 309; unlonists, 55: liberals 129: Mccarthy ites. B; Parnellltes. g.
 On todays returns the conservatives have gained three seats. the unonists one and the Parnellites one.
 Among the defeated candidates are the labor leaders, Tom Mann and Glenn Ed wards, who shared the fate of many of their fellows. Mann ran as an independ- ent la bor candidate in the Colon valley district of Yorkshire, and had IS oppo- nents J. J. Kitsen, the liberal representa- tive, and Hold Thomas, unionist. The liberals won with smaller majority than they had in 1892 and Mann was third in the race with 1245-Votes.
 Clem Edwards had the liberal and la- bor support in the Tottenham division of Middlesex. At the start he had to face a | conservative majority of 1720 in 1892. This year the conservatives piled up major ity of nearly 260Q./
 Sir William Vernon Harcourt, who was defeated in Derby, has been returned from West Monmouth by a majority of | 7243, twenty-three less than the liberal majority there three years ago.
 MT. Warrington, who resigned his can dldacy in favor of Sir William on the 1atter's defeat in Derby. was to have stood without opposition. Sir William, notwithstanding his defeat in Derby, per sisted in declaring in his speeches in West Monmouth that temperance was the chief plank in his platform.

Governor Budd's Proposed Proclamation
 to Bearing Arms.

Governor Budd's Proposed Proclamation as
 to Bearing Arms.
 San Francisco, Juy 29.-The publica- tion of Governor Budd's proposed proc lamation regarding semi-military organ izations bearing arms has caused a tu- mutt among the foreign societies, who have arms in their quarters and have been in the habit of drilling upon state occasions.
 Officers of the French military socie- ties are particularly demonstrative in their talk Their basis is that there are to be no French societies without the French flag" Under no circumstances could the flag be carried with arms.
 President V. Felizitti of the Swiss sharp shooters, said: We will give up our arms sooner than our flag. I be- lieve that if we turn out with both flags no one can prevent us, and the law to the contrary is, in my opinion uncon- stitutional. We will probably test it, too"
 The intended proclamation is stirring up tumult which will probably end in the United States courts.
