MARSHALL CAPTURED.

Ell Marshall, the Negro who recently
shot Mr. Nivens, near Pineville, was
captured near Van Wyck, Lancaster
county, last Friday, by a posse, after
hot pursuit of exactly week.
1t now develops that shortly after
Marshall shot Mr.. Nivens, and while
he was running away, he saw two
white children on the side of the road +,
and fired at them twice. The children
were not hit, but were badly fright
ened, as was quite natural.
When the posse finally came upon
Marshall, near Van Wyck, he started
to run, and member of the posse
brought him to the ground with load
of buckshot in the back. The fellow
was pretty well riddled; but the un-
derstanding is that the wound will not
prove fatal.
At the time of his capture, Marshall
had on his person two revolvers-one OF
80 calibre, the other of 3S-and box of
cartridges for each. He was very much
frightened after the shooting and made
no further resistance. He said that he did
not know it was Mr.. Nivens after him, or
he would rot have fired. He thought he
was shooting at Mr.. w. o. Bales. He
was taken to Monroe, n. c., and commit
ted to Jail at that place.

DEPosIToRs ARE ANGRY.-Eight
hundred depositors of the recently
failed Globe Savings bank met in Chi
cago last Sunday afternoon, says a
dispatch, to protest against the treat
ment they had received at the hands
of c. w. Spalding, its president, and
his fellow. Officers, and to devise means
for rescuing, if possible, some portion
of their savings which had been tied
up by the banks failure. An execu-
tive committee was appointed 10 direct
legal proceedings. Ex-Governor Alt
geld was frequently denounced and
cries of "Lynch him !" "Send him to
the penitentiary with Spalding and the
rest of the gang !" came from all parts
of the room. Resolutions were adopt
ed calling the attention of the general
assembly to the large number of bank
failures that have occurred within the
state during the last few months and
urging legislation for the establishment
of state banking department to have
over all banking institu-
tions Of the state, and urging also the
enactment of more stringent criminal
laws for the punishment of defaulting
bankers. Counsel for the depositors
will appear in court tomorrow to insti-
tute criminal proceedings against the
bank officials.

BLACKsBURG, April 13.-The bright
warm, spring days we are having bring
with them hope and encouragement to
the hearts of our farmers, and they feel
now that there was no necessity for their
fears and lamentations over the long wet
spell, and they will have an abundance OF
time for breaking up their land, putting
i'm their fertilizer, and making another
big crop of cotton.
About 80 of the Confederate Veterans
met here on Saturday, and elected DIR. j.
G. Black, +. Hardin and WIN. Caldwell,

dinary price, aggregates probably $780,
100000, and conservative estimates
place the damage to cotton alone at
about this figure, not to take into con-
sideration other losses incident to the
flood.
A terrible collision occurred on
the Southern railroad at Harrisburg,
about 13 miles north of Charlotte, last
Saturday night, between the north
bound Florida special and the south
bound local passenger train. The Or
ders were for the two trains to pass at
Harrisburg, the local passenger taking
the siding as the Florida special went
by. The local passenger was slig ghtly
behind and the Florida special kept
on. The two trains collied just at the
entrance to the siding. The engines
were piled one on top of the other. L.
Clingman Benton, postal clerk, Of
Charlotte John Eudy, of Concord, N.
c.; and Will Donaldson, of Lynch
burg, Va, were killed, and six
other people were more or less seri-
ously injured. The passengers gener-
ally escaped with severe shaking up:
The property loss to the railroad
amounts to many thousands of dollars.

they were drowned in sight of the
crowd on the quay. The bodies which
were recovered, were wrapped in the
Greek flag and buried in the cemetery
here. 1t was very sad and the city is
in mourning. Business is at stand
still. The currant vineyards are de-
serted and the markets of the world
will have to depend next year on the
$4,000 tons which remain in the king
dom unsold."
As the result of an invasion of Mac
edonia by Greek "insurgents," last
Friday the Turkish government no.
tilted the foreign ambassadors that it
would Immediately send large force
against the Greek headquarters at
Larissa; but as yet the proposed
movement has not been commenced
AS to whether orders were issued and
then countermanded, is not known.
A garrison of 800 Turks were be.
sieged by Greeks at Baltine. After
four different attempts, the Turks
managed to cut their way through the
besiegers last Friday. Their loss was
800 killed. The loss of the Greeks is
is not reported.
Feeling at st. Petersburg is said to
be strong against the Greeks. The
Russian authorities claim that Tur.
key has been correct and irreproacha
ble in her movements and that the
Greeks have already committed nu
merous violations Of international
law. 1t is generally understood, how
ever, that the sympathies of Russis
are with Turkey.
Quite a number of Europeans, in
Guiding many Englishmen, are join
ing the insurgent forces. Among
the Englishmen who have Joined the
Greeks within the past few days is
young Harris, son of the admiral in
command of the British fleet engaged
in the blockade of Crete.
Considerable fighting is reported al
various points along the Greek from
tier, between Greek irregulars on one
side and Turkish regulars on the 9th
er. While the Greek government
does not assume responsibility for the
so-called irregulars, it is making nc
effort to hold them in check.

Wheat and oats, especially wheat, are
looking fine. If nothing serious happens
between now and harvest, both crops
will be unusually heavy.
The lacts in the Nivens tragedy, which
occurred near here, are about as follows:
The Negro, Marshall, had had serious
difficulty with another Negro on the
plantation of Mr.. w. o. Bales. Mr..
Bales took out warrant for the ar
rest of the Negro, and Mr.. Ed Niv-
ems went to make the arrest. Mr..
Nivens met the Negro near the Sugar
Creek bridge, on this side of Pine
vile, and ordered him to throw up his
hands. The Negro did so; but in one
hand he had pistol with which he in
stantly shot Mr.. Nivens. The ball struck
Mr.. Nivens's wrist, and then passed
through his lung near the heart. At
first the doctors thought that the wound
would prove fatal but now they think
there are hopes that Mr.. Nivens will
recover.
Our school is still going on under the
able management Of Miss Maggie Alex
ander. 1t will close sometime in May,
and be resumed after the crops are laid
by. BOGUS.

pear proper.

REPUBLICAN OFFICE SEEK ERS.
South Carolina Factions at Odds In Wash

South Carolina Factions at Odds In WASH
ington.
Washington Cor News and Courier.
There has been little or no change
in the differences between the warning
factions who are here seeking recog-
milton from President Mckinley, rela-
tive to the distribution of administra-
tion gifts in South Carolina. Several
conferences have been held between
the Regulars and the Lilly Whites, but
as yet no definite agreement has been
reached.
The Regulars, headed by National
Committeeman Webster, have made
overtures by which the Lilly Whites
could return to the party fold and re.
ceive a generous portion of the patron
age but they are holding out with the
hope a compromise may be reached
by which the big Offices may be allotted
equally. Melton wants the district
attorneyship and refuses to compro-
mise, unless he is given assurances that
he will have it. Lathrop has been
slated for the place and has the en-
dorsement of the Regulars. 1t is quite
probable that Mckinley will regard
the wishes of the Webster faction in
the selection of applicants, and in that
event the Melton people will be out in
the cold.
R. NJ. Wallace, Colonel C. J. Pride,
of Rock Hill, and John R. Talbert,
of Abbeville, are all after the United
States marshalship, with the proba-
biities of Wallace being the man.
Clayton is after the Columbia post
office, but it will 20 to E. w. Scriven.
E. H. Deas, Duke of Darlington,
is here after the collectorship of Char
lesion. He has batch of recommen-
datious, and as there is report here
tonight that incumbent, Captain Geo.
D. Bryan, is to resign, Dras wants to
he on the grounds. The Laurens post
mastership has been set apart for Rob-
iuson, and he is here looking after the
place. The vacancy occurs some time
this month. Major John F. Jones has
endorsed M. M. Freeman for the post
mastership at Blacksburg. Ex-Repre-
sentative Smalls has been endorsed
for collector Of the port of Beaufort,
but he would rather be deputy COM
missioner of pensions.
National Committeeman Webster is
much incensed at a report published
some days ago that he requested Sen
ator Tillmau to act as sponsor for him
at the White House. He says it is
untrue and that he needs no one to
attract the presidential ear.

GREECE AND TURKEY.
Scraps of News Showing the Situation
In Southeastern Europe.

In Southeastern Europe.
A statement from London is to the
effect that owing to snow storms in
southern Europe, and the cutting of
telegraph wires in various parts of
Turkey and Greece, the news as to the
exact situation in those countries, es-
pecially during the past few days, is
more or less incoherent.
A dispatch of Sunday morning from
Athens, said that it was understood at
midnight that war had been declared
between Greece and Turkey. The
statement, however, has not since been
confirmed.
An American in Patras, Greece,
writing under date of March %, says !:
"Patras has been comparatively quiet
for the past few days, for all the sold
iers and peasants have gone to the
frontier. For several weeks every
Greek steamer and every train from
Pyrgos were loaded with eager, patri-
olic, enthusiastic Greeks, ready for
war. A large steamer is now in port,
loaded with soldiers bound for Arta,
and this morning it seems to me that
war is imminent. Several days ago
when the soldiers were arriving in
great numbers and small boats in the
harbor were busy conveying them to
the steamers, ten men got into one
that holds only five comfortably, up
set, and, in the confusion that followed

As to whether the Greek or the
Turk is the stronger there is very grave
doubt; but the so-called concert OF the
Powers to the contrary notwithstanding,
with the issue once fairly joined we conf
IDENTIFY look for the eventual triumph of
the Greek. Here is the situation. The
Turk is a half-savage barbarian, with
a record of rapine and murder that ex-
tends over period of thousand years,
and who has long since incurred the more
or less bitter hatred of every Christian
nation. For his innuermerable crimes
Christians everywhere feel that he should
be swept from the face of the earth. The
history of the Greek is heroic almost as
far back as history goes. Every enlight-
ened Christian nation on the face Of the
earth knows him. and loves him. 1t is
generally recognized that reduced to the
actual resources of the two countries most
directly interested, the Greek is at seri-
Gus disadvantage; but only a real battle or
two, and that whether Greece is victorious
or not will serve to arouse the en-
thusiasm of the Christian world to a
fevor pitch, and before the struggle is
over all the great nations will be on the
side of Greece. Before the situation has
become heated cold blooded business in
terests can exercise a tremendous intlu-
ence but when once the fierce fire of war
is we'll kindled, business must stand from
under.

FARMERS INSTITUTES.
President Craighead Gives Detailed Ex
PLANTATION of Their Scope.

President Craighead Gives Detailed Ex.
planatIon of Their Scope.
At the instance of a correspondent
in York county who wrote for infor-
nation, The News and Courier asked
President Craighead for full expla-
nation as to the character aud scope
of Farmers Institutes" proposed to
be held throughout the state during
the summer. President Craighead's
reply, under date of April s, is as
follows:
TO the Editor of The News and
Courier: Your timely editorial on the
purpose and value of farmers insti-
tutes leaves little to be said
Our object is to bring the practical
results of science within reach Of the
people. We are aiming to give to the
farmer the advantage of expert knowl-
edge, especially in those departments
of science which are closely related
to agriculture. We wish to bring to
his aid the work of the chemist, the
geologist, the botanist, the veterinary
surgeon-in short, of the vast army
of workers in all lands who are toiling
to subdue the earth and to make it
minister to human needs and comforts.
What the farmer needs-as we all
need-is knowledge. Better methods
of cultivating and improving the soil,
the best and most improved form OF
implements, the kind of fertilizer best
adapted to each variety of soil, the
best breeds Of domestic animals, the
cultivation of farm crops, the results
of experiments with new varieties OF
fruits and vegetables-these are sub
jects in which all intelligent farmers
are interested.
Our institutes are perfectly informal.
We hope both to give and to receive
information. We invite inquiry. We
pass around the "question box" and
thus give every man an opportunity
to find out just what is of special in
terest to him. At every institute we
gather information that proves to be
valuable at succeeding institutes.
Thus in time we hope to so systema-
tize our work as to make each mans
special knowledge the property of all.
The institute has a still higher pur-
pose. 1t brings the people together.
1t stimulates thought. 1t awakens the
powers of investigation. 1t ought in
lime to raise up an army of investiga-
tors. 1t does something to relieve the
dull monotony, which more than aught
else is making farm life distasteful to
the rising generation. 1t can be made
an immense factor in the life Of the
southern farmer.
