pected Firebugs.

CRIPPLE CREEK, CoLo., May 1.-At
the two relief camps over 1000 people were
fed this morning, the breakfast consisting
of meat, coffee, hot cakes and other SUBJ
stantial viands. The quantity of tents is
sufficient to accommodate all who are in
need of aid. Most everybody enjoyed
solid nights rest last night and awoke this
morning refreshed and encouraged. At
both camps the people eat at long tables,
laden with food enough to satisfy all ap-
petites.
Mayor Steele stated this morning that
he did not believe there were any bodies
in the ruins of the Portland Hotel or other
burned structures in the neighborhood.
Charles Griffith and the unknown shot
during the fire are so far the only dead.
Incendiarism is still popular belief as
to the cause of the fire, and many wild
threats are made against the alleged fire.
bugs should they be apprehended. All
INDECENT Cripple Creek sufferers have been
granted by the railroads running out of
the burned camp rate of 1 cent per mile,
or one-fifth of the regular fare applying in
Colorado. Last evening the Denver and
Rio Grande sent five sleepers 10 the camp,
four of which are to be sidetracked, and,
under the supervision of porters, turned in
to temporary rooming- houses. The charge
will be so cents night, linen and pillows
being furnished by the company. The
prices asked for commodities to-day were
very reasonable and no exorbitant rates
were the rule. Restaurants and eating
houses are opening up as fast as they can
procure tenn porary quarters. The saloons
do not appear to be thriving to any great
extent, as people are inclined to be orderly
and quiet.

and other missiles at them.
Several policemen were quite badly hurt
in the melee. Troops were called for and
were promptly on the scene. They made

teen of the rioters were injured and many
arrests were made.

the conditions which are embodied in the

bill.
Attention is called to the fact that pro-
vision is made that the mortgages to secure
the adjusted bonds shall contain a clause
that in case of six months default
in any payments, the entire debts due the
United States shall, at the option of the
President, mature and the United States
shall thereupon be entitled to enter upon
and take possession of the mortgaged
properties without applying to the courts
or to Congress.
The committee calle especial attention
to the provision in the bill which gives
all lines connected with the Pacific
system at any point, "equal terms,
rates and facilities for the interchange of
traffic, both passenger and freight, be-
tween such connecting roads and every
part thereof" Also to the provision that
''any contract, arrangement or device by
sale, lease or consolidation, or otherwise,
intended to give preference or advantage
to any railroads so connecting at such
common point shall be unlawful.
When it is taken into consideration that
at the Eastern terminal OF the Pacific sys-
tenn there are few great lines of trans
State roads which have connection
at Chicago and elsewhere with
great lines of road leading to the
Atlantic coast it will be readily
seen, the committee concludes, that this
clause providing for connection with the
different roads practically gives to the
transportation of freight or passengers
going either East or West, competition
between the Atlantic coast and the Pacific
systems, thus carrying into effect what
was doubtless the intention of the act of
Congress in the act OF 1862. For these
reasons the committee recommends that
the bill pass.

an Angry Woman.
VENGEANCE FOR sCoRNED LOVE
Georgia of ST. Louis Surprises Her
Fickle Sweetheart by Public
Chastisement


COLUMBUS, OHIO. May LIN the third
act OF ''Othello'' by Louis James company
at the High-street Theater tonight James
leading man, Guy Lindsey, was horse
whipped on the stage il full view of the
audience by woman who leaped at that
moment from one of the boxes, whip in
hand.
James was playing 0thello and Lindsey
Iago. James was dumfounded. He stood
speechless on the stage, while Lindsey,
recognizing his assailant, rose to his feet,
stammering to James, "This is Georgia oil
st. Louis" while the audience was wild
with excitement.
Without the least interference being
made the woman continued to belabor
Lindsley about the head and shoulders.
Finally some one rang the curtain down
and policeman rushed in and placed the
woman under arrest. The play proceeded
with the rest of that act omitted.
After the play Lindsey said he had
known the woman for some time, and al
one time they were quite friendly. He
had been annoyed by her and was unable
to get rid OF her attentions. She said
Lindsey was formerly her lover and that
they had arranged to be married, but the
time was never set.
Under the influence of his mother and
his brother he had discarded her. His
people were very aristocratic and wealthy
residents of st. Louis, and did not like hel
because she was country girl originally
His scorn had so enraged her that she
came directly from st. Louis to administer
this fiogging. She showed a number o.
letters written to her by Lindsey, the
earlierof which are full of love, but the
later ones tell her that they must break
off their relations.

TO PROTECT FREE LABOR.
Favorable Report on the Bill to Be Made
to the House.

WASHINGTON, D. c., May 1. - The
House Committee on Labor to-day ordered
a favorable report on the bill to protect
free labor from competition with convict
labor, restricting the sale of convict-made
goods to States in which they are pro-
duced. The measure was amended ex-
empting the manufactures of agricultural
products from the operation of the pro-
posed law. The report states that it is not
designed to attempt to interfere with the
right of each State to employ its convicts
or dispose of their labor in any manner
they choose. but the committee believes
that no other State should be permitted 10
transfer an undue share of burdens on pro-
testing citizens of another State.

Convention Notes.

The people of Ceur d. Alene de-
serve great deal of credit for the
arrangements for the accomoda-
ton of their guests. Delegates and
visitors seemed to enjoy themselves
immensely. One Of the attractions
VAS the elegant music discoursed
by the Fort Sherman Military
Band. Ceur d. Alene as a conven-
ton town, is an entire success.
The newspaper fraternity was
we'll represented at the convention.
The HERALD scribe noticed among
those present, Mr.. ]. T. Scott, of
the Ceur d. Alene Press, Mr., John
F. Stark, of the Other Side, Prof.
Wilson, of the Spokesman Review
and Mr.. j. F. Yost of the Silver
Blade.
Commissioner ]. A. Ball, of this
place, and wife were taking in the
sights of the convention.
U. S. Inspector Callahan and
Col. Baines, of Bonner's Ferry,
were spectators at the convention.
The HERALD folks dersire to
acknowledge in particular the
courtesies extended them at Ceur
d. Alene by Mr.. and Mrs. Palmeter
and Mr., and Mrs. VIM. A. Reiniger.
Mr.. w. G. King, of Standpoint,
accompanied by his sister, Miss
King, of Helena, and her friend,
Mrs. Duer, of Fort Benton, took in
the convention.
G. L. Hoffman deserves great
credit for the fight he put up in the
face of insurmountable obstacles.
Hoffman is peach" as leader
and no mistake.
Thomas ]. Smith was one of the
chief spokesman on the Dubois side.
Mr.. Smith is level headed man
and an earnest speaker and when
he addressed the convention he al
ways made a hit that brought the
convention down.
Editor Yost did not get to be as
sistant secretary of the convention.
1t was quite amusing. When the
convention assembled, Yost mount
ed the platform, fully expecting to
be recognized. When Hoffman
suggested his name, Hon. A. A.
Crane sat down upon it too quick.
Yost had to find a less conspicuous
seat. He would not sit at the re-
porters table with Editor Scott, of
the Press, and the HERALD man.
Neither would he speak to them.

The Democrats in no Hurry.

The county Democratic conven-
ton held at Rathdrum on the 18th,
in comparison with the Republican
convention held the day before, was
a tame affair. There were not
more than half or two-thirds of the
delegates present in person and no
business of great Importance was
transacted.
The convention was called to order
by VIM Mcfarland, chairman of
the executive committee. The Off
cial call was read by Edwin McBee,
the secretary.
VIM Van Gasken, of Bonner's
Ferry was elected temporary chair
man, and made lice little harmony
speech. Temporary organization
was completed by the election of
Mr.. McBee as secretary.
A committee on permanent or
ganization reported in favor of
making the temporary organization
the permenant officers.
The committee on delegates to
the state convention named the fol-
lowing members to compose the
delegation; George Roberts, NJ. D.
Wright, NJ. NJ. Marshall, George
H. Pease, r. E. Mcfarland, James
Graham and Edwin McBee.
The old executive committee was
reelected with the same officers.
The convention then adjourned
subject to the call Of the chairman
and secretary. The inaction of the
convention is explained on the
ground that there is a disposition
to await the result of the various
state conventions. The attitude of
these conventions as regards fusion
will likely influence the various
county conventions. 1t was quite
clear that a strong sentiment in
favor of fusion prevailed at the con-
vention.
Mr.. Van Gasken and Mr.. A. L.
Jameson represented the Kootenai
valley precincts. Both these Demo
cratic war horses were present at
the Republican convention and took
careful notes there. They are both
outspoken free silver and Dubois
men.
