Senator Tillm ans Letters.

WASHINGTON, Feb. Ex-senator
Tillman is just now enjoying the dis
tinction of having a larger list of cor.
respondents than any member of the
Senate. Today his desk in the Senate
chamber resembled the work bench of
a railway postal clerk or distribut-
ing clerk in the city postoffice. The
letters were piled upon his desk to re-
semble a miniature forti6cation, be-
hind which sat the junior Senator
with a smile of satisfaction playing
upon his rugged face. In his hand
he held a letter opener fashioned after
his much-talked-of "pitchfork," the
gift of an ingenious supporter OF his
peculiar doctrines. His Senatorial
associates stopped at his desk in pass
ing to facetiously comment upon his
large mail and to express profound
sympathy for his private secretary,
who is expected to make answer to
each correspondent. Senator Tillman
appeared to be delighted at the atten-
ton he was attracting, and had a
ready reply for each Senator who
visited him, Since the delivery of his
remarkable speech in the Senate he
has received more than seven thous-
and letters commencing his utterances
and urging him to keep up the good
work." Many of his correspondents
request copies of his speech, and to
crafty the demand he proposes to
have several millions of copies scat
tered throughout the country, where
Tillmanism appears to be popular

Another Bray.

LOWELL, MASS, Feb. 12.-In the
course of his address at the annual en-
campment of the Massachusetts, Grand
Army of the Republic to-day, Com
mander Thayer alluded to the dedica-
ton of q Confederate monument in
Chicago on last Memorial Day. He
said: "The lesson taught by the mon
ument is an erroneous one; this statue
of Confederate soldier, which they
placed upon it in brass with wasted
body, intended as an implication that
our government maltreated its prison
ers, is a standing falsehood and the
dedication of the memorial upon a
day which we have set apart for mem
orial services in honor of our fallen
comrades was an insult to every man
who wore the blue. My protest was
sustained by the posts of this depart
ment and by thousands of loyal men
all over the country. Do not let them
use the monument at Chicago as an
entering wedge for other cities of the
loyal North. We may join with them
in extolling the heroism of the people
of the South, but we must not be
asked to countenance or to palpitate
the gigantic crime which they commit,
ted in seeking the destruction Of the
Union, or to allow attempts to distort
the facts of history to 60 unrebuked.
If they are as loyal as they say they
are, let them forsake the errors of the
past and not seek to perpetuate them. u

Golden Resolutions.

How many good resolutions are
broken during these January days
As the midnight bells ring out the
old and ring in the new year, how
many thousands of penitent inebriates
promise themselves to lead better lives
and for weeks and days thereafter
struggle manfully against the tyrant
that runs riot through their veins
But flesh is weak and alcohol is strong
and as the days 60 by the craving for
drink becomes so great that few of the
struggling thousands can resist it,
and, one by one. they fall hopelessly
into the old ways until another mile
stone shall give them pause. To the
weak but willing among us the Kelley
Institute of South Carolina is a god
send. The gold cure is mot gold that
gitters," but it shines like benedic-
tion in the faces of the liberated-the
free! Make, by all means, your good
resolutions, but back yourself with the
gold to be had only in South Carolina
at the Kelley Institute in this city
The State.

Chinese CannIbals.

VICTORIA, B. G.. Feb. 12.-Dreadful
stories come from Yokohama of the
treatment of Japanese by Formosa
rebels, some correspondents igoing so
far as to say that the Chinese practice
cannibalism. Early in January the
rebels took possession of the village Of
Kelung. A detachment of Japanese
was sent to attack the place and after
considerable opposition succeeded in
driving the rebels off and entering the
village, which was afterward fired.
The correspondent OF the Japan Mail
in speaking Of the arrival of the Japa-
nese troops in the village says: "The
troops were Mortified at the CHASTITY
spectacle of nineteen bodies of their
countrymen, beheaded and frighfully
mangled. They were railway work
men who had met death at the hands
of the fends. MANY of your readers
may not be aware of the cannibalism
that exists among the Chinese, altough
thsre is probably not a foreigner in
Formosa but knows ofthe eating of
portions OF the bodies by savages, or
of the mrrkets in Formosan settle
ments containing human flesh for sale.
During the outbreak of 1891, so great
was the loss of life that savage flesh
was brought in and sold the same as
pork in the markets. The mutilated
bodies of Japanese were found, several
of them disemboweled and with their
hearts cut out, also minus their parts.
Some were found who had been
burned at the stake. Charred bodies
with hands and feet still fastened were
some of the spectacles the soldiers
saw"

w ashed Into The River.

CLEVELAND, O., Feb. 11.-At 3:15
this morning water main on Frank
lin avenue hill burst, and with the
volume Of water that poured out sew
eral hundred feet of the hill was
washed into the river. A small one,
story frame house, occupied by Mrs.
Ravey, go years old at No. 9 Frank
lin hill, was inundated, and, with its
contents, was hurled into the river.
Mrs. Ravey was drowned. A New
York, Pennsylvania and Ohio freight
train was passing at the foot of the
hill and the force of the water carried
four cars into the river. On the cars
were three of the train crew, and the
men were carried with the cars. Two
of the men jumped before the river
was reached and escaped, but the third
was dumped into the river, and but
for the assistance of the tenders of the
Columbia street bridge would have
been drowned. An alarm of fire was
turned in and a message sent to the
water works pumping station and
the main was cut off.

VENEZUELAN COM MISSION.
A Full Presentation Will bo Made to IL of
England's Side.


WASHINGTON, Feb. 12.-Ambssador
Bayard has briefly informed Secretary
Olney by cable that the British gov.
ernment, as stated in Parliament yes
terday, had acceded to the request Of
the Venezuelan Commission trans
mitted by the Department of State
and himself, to supply all of the infor,
nation in its possession that would
throw light upon the question as to
the location of the boundary line be-
tween Venezuela and British Guina.
The Ambassador expects that the
matter will be forthcoming very
shortly in the shape of advance sheets
of the Blue Book on the subject, which
is being prepared for the information
of Parliament, and this advance in
formation he will promptly dispatch
by steamer for the use of the commits
sion. Touching the report from Lon
don that Venezuela is about to send a
representative to London to negotiate
directly for the settlement ofthe boun
dary question, nothing official can be
learned here. It is said, however,
that the resumption of diplomatic re-
lations between Great Britain and
Venezuela has been for years past one
of the objections of the United States
government, which has felt confident
that if this could be brought about,
the good sense of spirit of justice of
each party could be relied upon to
speedily reach an adjustment Of the
boundary question, that would be en-
nently satisfactory to them and to the
United States. Therefore, the state
ment that the United States govern
ment in this instance has advised
Venezuela to adopt this course appears
to have some foundation. The utter
ances in the Queens speech and in the
debates in Parliament, and particular
ly in the Commons, upon the address
from the throne, have given satisfac-
ton in official circles here. There is
no disposition to take too optimistic a
view of the matter and TO 90 to ex-
tremes in the belief that satisfactory
settlement of the question is now abso-
lutely assured, but it is comforting to
the officials to find that the British
are now taking more reasonable view
of the action OF our governmental in ap-
plying the Monroe Doctrine to the
Venezuelan question, and they are
hopeful of an honorable termination
of this incident in the end, though, as
is Lord Salisbury himself in
dicated in his speech, that end may be
still distant and only to be reached
after much long negotiation.
ADVICE ACCEPTED.
LONDON, Feb. 12.-It is announced
from good source that, following
the advice OF the United States, Vene'
zuela has practically decided to send a
representative to London with power
to open direct negotiations with the
government of Great Britain for q
settlement of the boundary dispute
between British Guiana and Venezue
