The Popullst primaries Of the city
held on Tuesday night, the Goth were
not AS well attended rs they should
have been This was due to the fact
that they had not been well or even
fairly advertised. Mr.. Foster, who has
had charge OF the paper had the run
of this business anu attended to the
publication of the announcements, so
the committeeman were not very alert
and neglected to send them in New
ertheless we believe the voters of each
ward met and appointed delegates
though the attendance was small.

A lively little blaze occurred Tues
day forenoon about 10 O'Clock at the
house of S. o. Champion, G36 sixth ave
nue., East. We understand that the
habitants of the house were smoking
meat in a kitchen next the house and
in some manner the fire got loose and
other things were smoked while the
meat burned. The kitchen was burned
away and some furniture was badly
damaged but as the lire laddies re-
sponded instanter the flames were soon
quelled, all of winch should teach us
to rememberthat fire is a DELEGATE thing
to handle even if it is only to extract
the smoke from it,

there was little doubt he had struck
out for the swamp lands, which would
naturally offer him the greatest chance
for escape.
where's the boy?" demanded the
regulators, as they tossed aside the
furniture of the cabin and searched for
the lad whose fistic exploit had caused
so much trouble.
The lad was nowhere to be found.
No one was left in the place but the
aged mother of Trice, and she was at
once removed from the place and the
house burned to the ground, together
with it's contents. Then the regulators
put the bloodhounds on the track and
started toward the swamp for the fugi-
tiVes. All day long Tuesday the hunt
ers followed the chase, leaving a suffi-
Client number to beat up the woods and
search along the banks of the river,
where there are caves that might af-
ford a temporary hiding place. But
nothing of either man or boy could be
found. Up to a late hour last night
the bloodhounds had been unable to
continue the trail successfully, as the
many shallow water courses afforded
an opportunity for wading which the
willy negro had undoubtedly taken adj
vantage of.
But Trice has no earthly chance of
escape. He will be captured to a GER
tainty, and when he is taken nothing
will prevent his instant execution. Just
what method may be adopted for deal
ing with him no one can surmise. But
that the rage of his pursuers will be
glutted in revenge for the death and
manning he has inflicted there can be
no possibility of a doubt

His Accomplish in Trick Did Not Live
Up to His Agreement.
From the New York Times.
An illusionist was talking the other
day of some accidents that sometimes
spoil the art of the conjurer.
1T was in Nashville, Tenn" he said.
that 1 experienced a real knock-down
blow. l was performing the well known
trick of passing a marked coin into the
center of an uncut orange. At least,
that is what a good many people be-
lieved 1 was doing. 1 used a silver
dollar and emphasized the trick by
passing the coin into the pocket of some
boy whom l had enticed on the stage.
l will openly confess that the boy had
to be confederate and that the mark
ed dollar had it's fellow in one previous
ly prepared by me. One night, as l was
entering the theater. 1 looked around
for likely youth to aid me in my dou-
BILE dealing. l picked a boy and prom

~ am a conjurer,' / said. L want
you to put this dollar in your right
hand trousers pocket. I'll get you a
seat in the front row. When l ask for
somebody to come on the stage You
must come. Then 1 will ask you to pro-
duce the dollar
"Phe boy promised everything and,
after making arrangements for him at
the door, left him. When was ready
for the dollar trick / saw my young
confederate sitting open-mouthed in the
front row. l had prevailed upon an
other member of the audience to lend
me a dollar marked exactly as was
that had given to the boy.
Il passed that borrowed dollar into
the orange, cut the fruit open, and out
dropped the coin. Then / went on:
"'And now, ladies and gentlemen, /
will perform still more difficult feat.
l have passed that dollar into an
orange. Now / will ask some member
of the audience to step on the stage
and. without going anywhere near him,
1 will pass the same dollar, marked as
you have seen. into the right-hand
trousers pocket.
True to his. bargain. the boy stepped
to the stage. l stepped opposite him
and asked
NOW. sir, have you even seen me
before?'
:" No. sir was the answer.

I am going TO pass il into your right

Il made the proper magician's pass.

LETTER FROM TOWNSVILLE.
A Cyclone Of Measles-Farmers' Acting
Sensibly-Death of Mrs. L. j. Erwin

A Cyclone Of Measles-Farmers Acting
sensibIy-Death of Mrs. L. j. Erwin
At the School.
Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer.
LowRYsvILLE, January 2S.-A storm
of measles struck this section about a
month or six weeks ago and soon devel-
oped into a perfect cyclone. So far,
hardly family has escaped, and the
outlook is that the whole community
will be swept. Although only small
percentage Of deaths have resulted,
can affirm that this disease tackles one
more like the grim reaper than anything
that ever come my way.
Whatever other sections of the country
may be doing in the way of buying mules
and preparing for big cotton crop, feel
sure that this immediate community will
not increase the acreage. do not know
of a single mule having been bought, ex-
cept to take the place Of one disposed Of or
dead.
Mrs. L. J. Erwin, widow Of the late
Frank j. Erwin, died here on the 18th OF
January Of heart failure. She had been
in delicate health for number of years
but her death was sudden and unex-
pected.
Exercises were resumed at the academy
last Monday. The new building is in use
much to the joy and comfort Of teachers
and pupils. Miss Lila Riley, the assistant
teacher, is unable to discharge her duties
on account of recent attack Of measles.
Miss Collie Guy is taking her place for the
present. W. o. G.
