John R. McLean's
Great NeWSpaper.

Without a single exception, there
is beyond doubt no greater or more
popular newspaper in the United
States than the Cincinnati Enquirer !;
or a more successful publisher than
its proprietor, MIR. John R. Mclean.
The old-time prices for the Daily
Enquirer have been maintained, and
its circulation largely increased each
year; hard times and cheaper jour-
nails falling to arrest its onward march
and high appreciation of the public
for its true worth and merit.
The Weekly Enquirer at beginning
OF the campaign year was offered at
50 cents year, and its circulation
increased by the addition of over
200, 900 new subscribers; the most
substantial and coveted testimonial a
publisher could desire.
When asked for the secret of such
success, Mr.. Mclean frankly answers; !;
The Enquirer has no opinions to force
upon its patrons, it simply prints the
facts and tells the truth that the reader
may form his own opinions. By
maintaining the price of the paper,
more news and greater variety can be
furnished, and every class of business
interests catered to, which a cheaper
journal cannot afford.
The very liberal support given the
Enquirer by the public at large, makes
it incumbent upon the management
to serve it faithfully with zeal and en-
terprise in minor matters as well as
those Of greater magnitude.

DONS DEFEATED.
Gen Garcia Captures the Town
of Guaiamaro.
Bridges Blown Up, Culverts Burned
and Railway Tracks Torn UP.
This Garrison, 100 Soldiers and 20 Armed
Citixens Surrender, and Are Paroied-
Church Towers Blown UP With by
Mantle War Material Captured.

KEY WEST, Fla, Nov 12-Passen-
gers who arrived from Havana We'd
nesday night bring intelligence that
the capture Of Guaiamaro was of more
Importance than first reported When
the news reached Havana it caused
great excitement 1t was partially
printed, but was wired to Madrid and
made a sensation. 1t Is said it SO stir
red the people that they forced the gov
ernment to oblige Weyler to take the
field.
The steamer Julia, which arrived ut
Havana Sunday from Nuevitas, reports
no communication with the city of Pu-
erto Principe since the 27th.
Many bridges have been blown up,
culverts burned and about seven kilo-
meters of railway track torn up. Great
anxiety prevails in Nuevitas regarding
the fate of Puerto Principe. The
steamer brought letters detailing the
attack on Guaiamaro. 1t appears that
Gen. Calixto Garcia, with large rebel
force and two pieces of artillery, at
tackled the place on October II. The
next day he captured the trenches and
destroyed ten forts surrounding the
town.
The garrison, $50 soldiers and 25
armed citizens, surrendered, but were
ordered released except Quartermastcr
Magucl Mola, who, being Cuban, at
tended the wounded. They were then
sent to Puerto Principe under an es-
cort. The officers were paroled. Maj.
Martizcz, in command of the detach-
ment, was wounded in the arm and
died at the hospital as result of am
putation.
The citizens of the town were forced
to aid the rebels destroy the trenches,
houses, etc.
The church tower was blown up with
dynamite. Much war material was
captured. All steamers were sacked,
owners made prisoners, and ransom
asked.
The so-called fusion of local politi-
cal parties is farce. 1t was all done
by coercion. Civil Gov. Porrua, acting
under instructions of Weyler, forced
the leaders of the parties to accept.
Their resolution was taken the same
day Weyler left for the field, who
feared to leave behind troublesome
elements. There is great undercur-
rent OF ill feeling against Weyler in
Spanish circles. 1t is known he has
been pushed to take the field.
1t is said he will fail in
his campain against Gen. Maceo.
The latter is reported strongly
fortified in the mountains. Tuesday
night Weyler encamped in the Gomor
Andoro hills, and news has arrived
that he had an engagement with the
rebel parties under Perioco del Gadc
and Perico Diaz. 1t is reported Wcy
Ter was forced to fall back. News also
has been received that Gen. Munoz
made another attack on the Rubi hills
where Maceo is supposed to be strong
ly entrenched. A fierce fight is said to
have occurred but no details are
known.
Great excitement prevails in Havana,
not only on account of the above, but
also because of news received from the
United States regarding President
Cleveland's future attitude on the Gu
ban question.

MAGNANIMoUs WILLIAM.
He Did Not Take Revenge for an Ir
suit.

He Did Not Take Revenge for an In
suit.
Louis MI. was of the opinion that it
was unworthy Of the king of France to
revenge himself for the insults he
suffered as prince royal. Emperor Will
liam of Germany is of like opinion, says
the, New York Times.
Baron de Krosit, who has just been
appointed a grand cross of the Red
Eagle order, was formerly colonel of tho
hussar regiment in which the emperor
as youth first did military service. One
night at mess, toward the close of n
banquet at which the young prince,
then mere captain, had invited his
friend, Archduke Rudolph, the CONVEX
sation turned to the projected reforms
in the cavalry.
William declared himself partisan
of these reforms and defended his opin-
ion with so much impetuosity that Col.
Won krosilI, very much excited, sudden
ly interrupted him. "It is an absurdi-
ty," said he in loud voice and con-
temptuous tone as he ridicuIed the idea
put forth by the prince.
1T is well,' replied the prince. "To-
day you are my superior officer, and I
must bow before you. but our positions
may change"
When his former subordinate as
cended the throne Baron Won Krosik
fully expected to see his name put on
the retired list. But the Emperor ap-
pointed him general, gave him the i'm
portant dictatorship of the School of
Cavalry, of Hanover, and has ever
treated him with the greatest respect.

Thanksgiving Day.

This is Thanksgiving Day and will
be duly observed by our citizens both
great and small The demonstrations
however, will not be of such promi-
nent nature as to cause alarm, except
possibly as some Of the numerous
tables spread before the hungry.
We have very little in this town to be
thankful for, yet the people are de-
termined to be thankful anyhow. Most
of them are thankful that they are liv-
ing and that the prospects of the future
or not worse. tits day Of good cheer
and one on which the poor should be
remembered.
All the churches viii hold a union
service in the Presbyterian church at
II o'clock today and an appropriate
sermon will be preached by Rev. DIR.

their way for hunt in the country.

ton of our neighbor and get one good

More Turkeys.

A party of turkey hunters, headed by
the inyincible Squire Gump. left here
at 10 o'clock Monday night for the
head waters of Dicks Creek, where
that game abounds. The party was
composed of Squire Gump, Rev. L. B.
Caldwell, T. P. Burch, Judge H. G.
Hart, Capt. Henry Weller, Burney
Burleson and Hugh Webb.
Five turkeys were bagged. Squire
Gump killed two, Hart one, Weller one
and Hugh Weeb one. All except that
Of Webb's were killed from the same
drove.
The most remarkable part of the
whole proceeding was the fact that
Squire Gump should have made an eff
fective shot. The boys had decided tc
have fun with him all winter, or until
he did kill a turkey, but he went and
spoiled it yesterday by coming off first
honors. They say, however, that the
lame squire was chasing the drove
when he fell over log and his gun was
discharged, accidentally killing two.
Dir, Caldwell and Burleson failed tC
get shot and Burch was sick and die
not leave camp.

Showing the Queer.

j. A. Perry, Of Morganton, N. c.,
state detective, and Deputy Marshal
Henry Ray of this place, accompanied
by Deputy Marshal Simerly of Carter
county. have been chasing band of
counterfeiters in the mountains for the
last week.
Last Monday night Ray and Perry
were at j. P. Hopson's, near Roam
Mountain. They spent the night there
and next morning their host showed
them counterfeit dollar piece passed
on him the night before by Cal. Laws,
fellow who hailed from Ducktown,
Tenn, some time ago. This was the
first clew, Perry was over here on
other business and he and Ray and
Laws just happened to get together.
They followed Laws and arrested him
near Elk Park, N. c., Tuesday. This
arrest gave them the trail of Abe
Sheets, q partner of Laws, and he was
run down on Buck mountain on the
same day. Sheets had SO in counter
felt when arrested 1t was in dollar
pieces and was moulded into a perfect
likeness of the standard silver dollar.
If they had been made out of silver
they could have been passed on any
one, but there was too much lead in the
composition and it was easily detected.
Sheets took the officers to a point
where he said Laws got scared and
threw away bag of the dollars, scat
tering them along the road. 1t was
in the night, but by striking
matches they were enabled. to find
several pieces lying by the side of the
road.
The officers say they have good
case and will land their men in the
pen. They will be tried before Com
missioner Rudy at Elizabethton today.

A Financial Success.

The ladies cemetery association gave
a successful supper at the Opera House
Tuesday night, from 8 to 10. The
amount taken in was 1854, and their
expenses were less than $40 All the
eatibles except the oysters were donated
by the good people of the town, and
more people attended perhaps than
ever responded to charitable cause
before. The proceeds of the supper
are to &C toward putting fence around
the Love grove cemetery.
This cemetery has been in a de-
plorable condition for some time and
the ladies who originated and put in
motion the plan to raise the money de-
serve great praise. They are highly
elated over their success and do not re-
greet all the trouble and worry they
were put to in order to get the spread
ready.
The entire proceeds will be used in
taking care of the cemetery.

PROBABLE LYNCHING
Of Fiend Who Raped Little Five-Year-
Old Girl in North Carolina.

OF a Flend Who Raped Little Five-Year-
Old Girl in North Carolina.
Quite sensation was caused by the
arrest of Pat Mitchell here Tuesday
noon for the rape of Ollie Eggers,
daughter Of John Eggers, a prominent
citizens of Zionsville, Watauga coun-
| ty, N. c.
The crime was committed last FRI
day and party of the citizens headed
by Daniel and James Dotson amateur
detectives of that locality, trailed
Mitchell to this place and he was found
at the residence of George Johnson,
just beyond the handle factory in Car
negie: The fugitive had been there
only about an hour when arrested. lie
was an acquaintance Of Johnson's and
has brother, Crit, also living here,
but he did not seek refuge with him.
The father of the girl was along and it
was with difficulty that he was kept
from shooting the fend.
The prisoner was put on the 9 o'clock
train on the Narrow Gauge and taken
to Allentown where the party left the
railroad for Watauga county, dis
lance Of about 95 miles. 1t was the
common belief that the prisoner would
be lynched that night somewhere near
the line. The father OF the girl said
that he meant to take him back to North
Carolina and turn him over to the off
GERS of the law, but it is doubtful if
this was done. No news could be heard
from them all day yesterday.
The poor wretch could not have been
taken back to North Carolina legally
without requisition from the COVER
nor, and would have had to be taken
to Jonesboro Jail, but he had no friend
to help him and did not know how he
could have escaped the mob.
Mitchell is about 35 years old and is
unmarried. He and his people lived
near the scene Of his crime. He is said
to be mixed blooded but his features
do not show it. His victim is only {
years old. This made the thirst for his
blood all the greater. He found her al
play In an old house near her fathers
and, accomplishing his purpose, made
his escape.
The little girl is in q critical condi
ton and her horrible treatment has Sc
influenced the neighborhood that hel
assailant no doubt paid the penalty
Fof his crime somewhere in the noun
tains between Allentown and tn,
state line.
