Every bone, muscle nerve and tissue,
lives upon what the blood feeds to it.

FLORENCE.

Brown Respited-Another Telephone Com
 pany Organized.
 Florence, Nov. 19.-(Special.) .)-Florence will in all probability, be deprived of the hanging bee" that was to have occurred next Friday. Will Brown, the negro who was sentenced to be hanged on November 22 for the murder of Special Constable James Foster. near Rodgersville, will get a brief respite. Browns lawyers have carried the case to, the supreme court and by filing a bill of exceptions have secured a stay of judgment. The case may be disposed of by the supreme court before Friday, but it is hardly probable that it will be.
 Florence is to have another telephone system. A new company has been organ ized here, and the work of putting in phones is progressing rapidly. The new company will start out with about seY- enty subscribers, it is claimed There will be a lively rivalry between the two com panies, and demoraliZation of rates may be expected. The new company will use the poles and as far as possible the wires of the Electric Light company J. w. Walker, formerly manager of the local exchange of the Bell company, will be in charge of the new exchange.

A PACIFIC CABLE.
MT. Joseph Chamberlain Has Appointed a Committee to Arrange the
 Details.

London. Nov. 19.-Alf colonial agents in London, the representatives of West and South Australia, had a conference with Mr. Joseph Chamberlain, secretary of state for the colonies, at the colonial office today with the result that MT. Chamberlain appointed a committee to arrange the details of the construction Of the proposed Pacific cable. The imperial governments of Australia and Canada will each present two delegates upon the committee, which will proceed with it's work as soon as possible.
 Representatives of Cape Colony and Natawer were also present at the meet ing, and MT. Chamberlain remarked that the presence of the representatives of colonies having no concern in the project in it's present form was an evidence of solidity and sympathy. He expressed the opinion that the project showed fair prospect of remunerative return upon the capital required.
 It was arranged that the colonial gov ernments should nominate delegates to the committee, whom the imperial gov erhment will confirm, as the committee will consider the report upon the whole subject in all its aspects.

THINGS DRAMATIC.

The American public at its present time is eagerly looking for an ideal Hamlet. such as the theater goers have been edu- cated, by Edwin Booth to expect. All of our tragedians nowadays favor new plays, either from lack of talent, or ow- ing to the excitement they derive from new productions. They avoid great tragedies. Creston Clarke is undoubted- 1y the most promising of our native ac- tors to enact Hamlet, and as the prince he strongly resembles his distinguished uncle, Edwin Booth.
 The cane used by Creston Clarke in the Fools Revenge" was once the property of Edmund Keane, and used by him on the old Drury Lane stage when he ap- peared as Shylock. It was given to MT. Clarke by his father, the famous come dian, John Sleeper Clarke, who received it from John Ryder. to whom it had been presented by Macready.
 "Not in the beaten track" is evidently the motto of the Hanlon Bros., who will present to the patrons of O'Brien's opera house on Friday and Saturday nights, November 22 and 23. their well-known but favorite production of "Fant tasma.' .'' That this is their motto is to be believed from the fact that they are leaders in their line and that all their ideas are of an original nature. "Fantasma" is an example of this fact for while nothing is claimed for this production from a-lit.

STABBED BY 4 FALSE FRIEND The Mobile Register Attacks
 Governor Oates, ACCUSES HIM OF COLLISION With Captain Johnston-His Friends Indignant The News Defends Him-Ex-Mayor
 Rich Not Candidate.
ACCUSES HIM OF COLLUSlOI

Mobile Nov. 19.-(Special 1.-The ab- sorbing topic today has been the morn ing Registers attack upon Governor Oates and speculation as to it's cause. This mornings issue, in announcing his final refusal to be whipped into the Reg ister's views and give up hissenatorial as- pirations for a second race for the gov ernorship, fatly charges Governor Oates with bargaining and collision with Capt. Joseph F. Johnston for votes. It claims that the governor is coldly sacrificing the party for his personal ambition; that he is ready to swap with the free silver men of this state and that he has made play into Captain Johnston's hands. !" The latter has many warm friends and admirers here among the gold men, and these are naturally indignant at thls open charge of fraudulent dicker. On the other hand, the Oates administration men are foaming at he mouth because their champion has been slandered. Hot talk has been the street corner and sa- loon amusement to day, and the impress sion seems to be that he Register, in at tempting to knife Oates, has succeeded in making a big hole in its own clique. The consensus of opinion is that the charge is untrue, and that Gov. Oates is merely carrying out the views he has openly and boldly expressed for months, viz That he would not run for governor and would stand for the senate. The silver men are jubilant for they say that John ston is now a dead sure winner The Register itself virtually admits that he will have walkover for the nomination, and that only Oates could have stopped it. The reasons for the Registers at tack are variously stated in the talk of the town. and they generally lead to the fact that the local Cleveland organ had little slate of it's own, which the gov ernor's bold stand has smashed into smithereens.
 The Evening News (strong anti-Cleve- land) comes to the governors defense against the Registers charge, and says that while it has steadfastly opposed Oates, it believes him honest. It treats the attack on him humorously and as un- worthy of serous denial.
 Hon. James c. Richs name has been freely used here today as a probable gap stop for the Cleveland men. as opposed to Jo Johnston; but cooler heads shake neg atively and say that MT. Rich is not 'fn it." and doesn't wish to be. At present the young ex-mayor is kepeing sedul- ously out of politics and minding his own business carefully in his law practice l have not considered it necessary even to interview him, his recent utterances hav- ing fully disproved his having any pres ent political aSpirationS.

erary standpoint. as a work of ingenuity and the application of stage mechanics it certainly stands alone and unequaled. The success of "Fantasma" is due, how ever not alone to this fact, but also that the Hanlons are careful in the selection of the people who are to portray the va rious roles entrusted to them. Among the members of this years company may be mentioned George H. Adams, Miss Kettle Black, McDonough brothers and others.
 The scenery is said to be entirely new, the costumes magnificent and the me- chanical effects novel. Particular at- tention has been called to the transfor- nations, two in number which have been described as artistic marvels of beauty
