Fayetteville Military Academy.

This school is rapidly forging into
the front ranks. Under the able man
agement of Col. Il. j. Drewry it is
meeting with a great success. "The
aim in this institution is to surround
the pupils with an influence at all
times salutary, and to render them
amenable to a mild and wholesome
disciDline. Individual supervision is
constant, and certainly it is designed
that no student shall fail in his duties
from mere idleness." Col. Drewry en-
joys the distinction of being one of
the best educators in North Carolina.

HARRIsvu.LE, Mich, Sept IA band
Of 20 masked men, divided into two de-
tachments, meted out a terrible pun
ishment late last night on Farmer
Hiram McKinna and Mrs Louise
Haws. the fathless wife of a neighbor-
ing carpenter. Haws, in fit of jeal-
ousy, shot MeKinna few days
ago, but did not seriously injure
him. The mob visited the home of
Haws and found the woman there.
Two men seized her by the arms and
forced her out of doors. after striking
her several times. Then they took
her down to the road in her bare feet
to a point about half a mile from
the house. Another party, also
masked, met Mckinna on his way
home. They pulled him from his
cart, stripped him of his clothes and
whipped him numerically. Then they
marched the couple down the road three
miles to the station at West Harrisville,
using the whip on both the entire
distance. On the way the regulators
stopped long enough to cut off Mrs.
Haws' long hair At West Harris
willie the couple were stripped of every
thread of clothing and securely tied to
a telegraph pole.

Miners Driven from WORK.

COLUMBUS, O.. sept AFTER the Sc
cret conference between the represent
atives of the western Pennsylvania
mine owners and the national execu-
tive board of the United Mine Workers
had closed yesterday, the strike leaders
held long and stormy session. consid-
ering the proposition that the Pennsyl-
vania miners should return to work at
a 64-eent rate pending arbitration. the
final rate to be not more than 90 cents
nor less than 90 cents The miners
leaders agreed that the matter would
have TO be submitted to the strikers
for their final decision, but differed as
to how the recommendations should
be made, whether to Pennsylvanis
miners alone or to delegates at gen.
eral convention. 1t was also declared
that the western Pennsylvania miners
were strongly opposed to returning to
work for anything less that 80 cents,
believing that they could soon win
this by standing out against any lower
rate. Secretary Warner of the Pitts
burgh district telegraphed to the exec
utive board that the men wanted so
cents or defeat and the submission of
the compromise proposition would only
entail needless expense and waste of
time.

Even il the great bituminous coal
strike is settled in every state and dis

turn to work pending arbitration on
new price, the miners of the New York

to fight IL out with the company and re-
turn to work to carry out the contract
legally signed and accepted by the
workmen.n DeArmit figures that the
strike has so far cost the miners S.
00O. 900. He based this upon the sup
position that I00, 900 men are out and
that they averaged SO per week. His
men have also forfeited s15,OOO in
