UNDER ARMED GUARD.
Mine Operators at Pana Travel to the
County Seat.

Pana. Ill, Sept 5-Guarded by four
deputy sheriffs, operators David J.
Overholt and Louis Overholt went to
Taylorville today to attend the injunc-
( ton proceedings against the mine Op-
orators. Judge J. c. McGigg accompa-
MED them, but no miners went over.

of the state union are expected to be at

vile, are looking after the miners in
tereStS.
The Springside negroes are sickening,
half a dozen are i'll, several with mala-
rial fever and it is said all the sewage
from Pana runs into the pond near the
mines. It is believed the negro quar-
ters will be q pest hole in a few days.
Attorney LeFOrgee thinks the furth-
er importation of negroes can be pre-
vented by law. He is not yet ready to
divulge his plans. There is talk of an
injunction forbidding the employment
of deputy sheriffs at Springside and in
this city
Captain D. H. Harris. of Lincoln, is
here talking compromise. He says he
could effect something if left to discuss
the matter with the state miners Off
GERS, alone The local men give him
no encouragement They stand by the
scale. After a secret meeting a Dr.
Huber's office last night, which operator
]. w. Kitchel and several citizens at
tended, banker Henry N. Schuyler, who
is also at the head of a compromise
movement talked with Charles Auten
of the union today. Auten declared the
union had already compromised by re-
ducing the scale from 40 to 80 cents and
dropping the local complaints. Schuy-
Ter has not given up hope.
Three of the negroes at Springside
camp escaped the deputies yesterday
and have left the city. They told the
miners union officials that the negroes
in camp were anxious to break camp
and return south.
A popular petition is being circulated
for citizens signatures for Governor
Tanner to make a personal visit here and
investigate the situation before going to
the expense of sending the GaIesburg
battery to protect life and property at
the request of the sheriff the citizens
believing that there is no necessity for
the troops and that no property will be
destroyed or life lost. Owing to the
prospect OF conta gious disease being
propagated in the negro camp and
communicated to the city action will
probably be taken to have the state
board of health investigate the condi-
lions at Springside and break up the
camp. Sheriff Coburn today began
swearing in 100 extra deputies for city
patrol duty. with the consent of Mayor
PenweI. A report is current that the
sheriff will take charge of the city.

Lieutenant Stacey was one of the

the army succumb in service as quickly

the young men who appeared for exam

TEN IN TWO YEARS.
Kansas Bank Failures Are Few and
Far Between.

During the past two years there were
but ten state and private banks closed
in Kansas. OF this number five failed
because of downright cussedness and
thievery of the bank officials, so Bank
Commissioner BreidenthaI says Four
of the others closed as a result of being
loaded up with boom paper, while
the other one failed because its officers
paid out such enormous amounts in in
terest on deposits.
National Bank Examiner Ewing saws
that the state banks of Kansas are in
better condition today than they ever
were and he predicts that there will be
no more failures of any consequence.
Commissioner Breidenthal says that
after all the banks get down to bust
ness as regulated by the new banking
law the only way a state or private
bank can fail will be for the officers to
deliberately steal the money from the
vaults between two days.

AN ACTORS MEMORIES.
McCarthy's Recollections of
the Famous Ones of Other Days.

Lawrence A. Mccarthy, the man who
as arranging the production of Damon
and Pythias" in this city, is a veteran
actor. He entered the profession as
early as 1855 and passed through all
the stages from burnt cork to leading
support of some of the greatest actors in
the country.
Mccarthy played with Richard Mans

John Mccullough and Edwin Booth. He

night of her last appearance before the
foOtlights when she was presented with

IN "reminiscences or all the leading the
atrical lights during the COS and 70s
and of actors who have since become
famous.
Mccarthy has pictures by the score of
actors and actresses with whom he was
associated with during his career on the
stage. Among them is one he prizes
more highly than all the rest 1t is
one of John Mccullough, taken in 1872.
