; Another sensation In the remarks
BILE court proceedings at Lafayette,
Ga, developed when 1t became known
that the county commissioners had
asked the grand jury to indict General
Fl. v. Boynton, Of the volunteer army,
for criminal libel.
The commissioners are greatly in
censed with the general for the strict
ures upon the county authorities con-
tanned in his letter to Governor
Atkinson. In this letter General
Boynton said that the county board
had licensed the blind tigers at Lyle
and in this way placed the burden OF
responsibility for the shocking occur
rences upon II. The commissioners
held q meeting and decided to present
the army officer to the grand jury.
The commissioners stated that they
had not issued any license and de.
mauded that the general be prose.
cuted for his statement to Governor
Atkinson.
This the grand jury refused to do.
The board will probably now make q
formal protest to General Boynton.

on Puenta Berraco has been repulsed

Puents Berraco is situated q short
distance from Baiquiri, where the
United States troops were landed.

American feet, from which it can be
judged that IL is highly improbable

And official dispatch from Santiago
de Cuba, dated June ed, says:
1.-THE attack commenced yesterday.
The enemy concentrated his landing
forces in front OF Puerto Berraco,

extended for eight leagues along tho

An official dispatch from Havana
says that ''the commander at Santiago

adds that the situation is critical, but

A dispatch from the governor Of
Santiago de Cuba says that 1.-THE attack

tinued until nightfall. The enemy
was repulsed except on the left, at
Baiquiri, where the Spaniards were
obliged to retire in consequence Of a
Aanking movement upon the part Of
the enemy, who landed several kilo-
meters east of Baiquiri. The Spanish

Miles and Alger Confer.
A Washington special says: Secre-
tary Alger and General Miles were in
conference in the secretary's Office at 4
o'clock Thursday afternoon when the
first Madrid bulletin announcing that
fighting had begun was shown them.
The secretary read it aloud with evil
dent satisfaction, and both gentlemen
expressed themselves gratiied with
this favorable report, coming as ii did
from the enemy. There was no sur

soon.
Secretary Alger said no word had
been received up to that hour indicst-

the coal companies want only man animal.
Intelligence and independence is abhorrcd by
the coal harons. They would gladly drive the
coal miners into acts of violence for an excuse
for murder Failing in their scheme to have
miners commit acts of violence, they massacred
without excuse, except, always, the old howl of
foreigners, and ignorance, and viciousness. If
the present reign of the wise, vicious class con-

Gods mercy if there is not an uprising of the

Another Old Citizen Gone.

Last Sunday, the people of Garrett were sur
prised to learn of the death of Charles Gregg.
who passed from life into eternity about 1890
a. III. Saturday morning, he went from home
to the postoffice, and returned home. A little
later, he again went down town. He had been
gone but short time when he became quite
i'll, and went to DR.. Henning's office and got
some medicine. He then returned home, about
10 o'clock. When he reached home, he was
feeling so badly that he asked that doctor he
summoned. DR.. Milligan was called, and he
administered medicine. Mr.. Gregg gradually
grew worse, and the doctor paid him two or
three visits. Sunday morning, the doctor
called again and gave him medicine, and then
left him, thinking his patient resting we'll.
He was surprised shortly afterward to learn tn it
Mr.. Gregg was dead.
Mr.. Gregg suffered bit little. He passed
away quietly and peacefully-went to sleep 10
wake no more.
Charles Gregg was born March rs, 1898, in
Orange county, New York When 10 years
of age, he moved with his parents to Lake
county, Ind. Later, they moved to Valparaiso,
Ind, and still later, to LaPar:e, Ind. He was
married to Angelina Ball at Valparaiso, Aug.
IS, 1851. | 1857, they came to Kansas City,
and lived there three years; then moved to
Paola, Kas., where they remained till the
breaking out of the war, when he enlisted in
Company l, 10th Kansas Cavalry. Mrs Gregg
returned to Indiana. After the war, they
took claim in Anderson county, Kas. The
place is now known the Sieve Young farm,
near Harris. There they lived four years, and
then moved to Garrett (in 1902 where they
have since lived.
Six children were born to them, tnree of
whom Fred, ALA and Laura are yet living
The funersl services took place on Tuesday,
at the family residence, conducted by Rev.
Rowland Ga Unitarian minister of Lawrence),
under the auspicies of The Knights OF Pythias.
The remains were placed in the Garrett Gene
terry.
Deceased enjoyed the respect of all who
knew him. He was man OF honor and intee-
rity. His was positive nature, and he had
the courage of his convictions.
The sorrowing wife, daughters and son have
the heartfelt sympathy of the entire community
May the Al-Wise Providence give them
strength to bear up under this great affection.

AN ODE TO THE DEPARTED.

On the editorial page of the Eagle OF March
18th there appeared short article copied from
the Emporia Gazette, which, for baseness, we
have rarely seen exceled. Had we found it in
the Police Gazette or some other bawdy house
publication, we would not have been astonish-
ed but in the Eagle-the Garrett Eagle-a
paper which finds its way into the homes of
edited and published by one who masquerades
as Christian-is, indeed matter of astonish-
ment. The Eagle essays to be teacher,
leader, in efforts to elevate and refine the peo-
ple but if this is its conception of what is ele-
waiting and refining, the earlier it dies, the bet
ter 1t will be for all who now come under its
malign touch.
Such articles are debasing, and are evidently
carnations from the brains of pot-house poll
ticians. The Eagle cannot excuse itself that
the article did not originate i'll The Eagle
office. 1t was copied without one word of
censure The less the number of men who can
befoul the columns of the press with such slush
have fellowship in the churches, the better for
churches. Their masks should be torn from
them, and they be compelled to face the public
in all their hdeous moral deformity.
JUST few days since it was announced in
the papers that the Rock Island railroad COM
pany had bonded the road for $Ioo, ooo, ooo
The loan was negotiated for the purpose of OBJ
tanning money to pay off mortgage of $62,-
700, 900. Thus the road economies. 1t Dor
rows $1,000 900 to pay off $62 900, 900.
Hanna prosperity has struck the road, and
supreme court decision will enable the road to
hold its grip. Great 6nancers More freight
last year than in any preceding period! Dollar
wheat! No limit to charges; and still there is
deficit and sill the property is more valuable
than at any time since the road was built For
fnanciering the road is up to John Sherman
in his great "Credit- Strengthening Act" The
road is strong now, since its debt is nearly
doubled. More watered stock will now be in
order, and free passes without limit Cut in
the wages of EMPLOYEES, and higher freights.
