THEIR MANNER OF FIGHTING.
Led by Colonel Alexander Gordon Fyfc. a re-
tired officer of the J2d OGordon) IIghanders. to
whom they were devotedly attached, the Ma
rooms swarmed into the Parish of st. Thomas
in the east and all over it. Their weapons were
not OF the most modern pattern, but their knack
ot wreathng themselves from head to foot in
club moss and brOad-leaVed bouShs, and their
uncanny power " lying motio1less for hours on
the watch to kill. suppress or destroy

negroes feel that the provost marshalS own

and much less trying u the nerves. 50 1t was

Demented Girl Burned.

26 years old,s demented and yesterday
while alone in an clubhouse her dress
took fire and she was horribly burned.
The mother of the unfortunate girl
heard her screams and ran to her and
tried to tear the burning clothing from
her body but could not She then got
a bucket Of water and finally succeed

Chsmness Re-sentenced.

Marshal Bennett came up this morn-

Jno. A. Chamness, convicted of muir
der in the court here last week. The
court in-passing sentence upon Cham
ness for the period Of his natural life
in the penitentiary failed to state "at
hard labor" until his attention was
called to the discrepancy by the as
slstant district attorney, after which
the error was corrected and the record
SO shows. But the government, in
order that no question could possibly
be raised hereafter, decided to bring
the defendant into open court again
and have him re-sentenced.

The Liberty Bell.

The Liberty Bell weighs 2,OS0 pounds'
stands about four feet high. and bear
the inscription:
PROCLAIM LIBERTY
Throughout the land unto all the in
habitants thereof.-Levit., XIV, lO.
BY order of the Assembly of the
Province of Pennv'y for the state
House. in the City of Phila., 1752.
The crack in the bell. with which all
have been familiarized by means OF
pictures. starts at the base and runs
inward toward the right hand.
The old bell from its lofty eyrie in
the belfry of Independence Hall in
Philadelphia has looked down on many
.tirrinr scenes in the struggle for the
irdenendence of the colonies. Before
tha vawning fissure in it's side silenced
fnrever it's voice it's tones were won't to
co1I together the citizens of the quaint
old Quaker town. Sonorously did 1T
"Proclaim liberty throughout all the
land unto all the inhabitants thereof"
that memorable day of July when the
independence of the American colonies
was decided upon. Until its usefulness
was terminated by the crack now OBJ
servable it was rung on every occasion
of great public Joy or sorrow.
The present crack was first observed
when the bell tolled July 8, 1885. in
memory of Chief Justice Marshall, who
had died in the city two days before,
and whose remains were then being
conveyed to the wharf to be sent out
of the city.

We're marvels of speed and of man.
ageability. They could DART about.
turn, reverse their course, rise. fall.
with the quickness and ease of a fish
in the water. Mr. Edison calculated
that even if mysterious bolts should fall
upon our ships we could diminish their
power to cause injury by our rapid evo-
lutions.
We might be deceived in our expec-
tations, and might have overestimated
our powers. but at any rate we must
take our chances and try.
A multitude, exceeding even that
which had assembled during the great
congress at Washington, now thronged
New York and Its neighborhood to wit
ness the mastering and the departure
of the ships bound for Mars. Nothing
/ further had been heard of the mysteri-
Gus phenomenon reported from the OBJ
servatories six months before, and
which at that time was believed to in
| dictate the departure of another ex-
pedition from Mars for the invasion Of
the earth. If the Martians had set out
to attack us they had evidently gone
astray, or, perhaps, it was some other
world that they were aiming at this
| time.
The expedition had, of course, pro-
foundy stirred the interest of the scien-
tific world, and representatives of
every branch of science, from all the
civilized nations, urged their claims to
places in the ships. Mr.. Edison was
compelled from lack of room, to re-
fuse, transportat ton to more than one
in thousand of those who now, on the
plea that they might be able to bring
back something Of advantage to
science, wished to embark for Mars.
On the model of the celebrated corps
of literary and scientific men which Ma
poleon carried with him in his invasion
of Egypt Mr. Edison selected a COM
pany of the foremost astronomers,
archaeologists, anthropologists, botan-
lists, bacteriologists, chemists, physic-
lists, lathematicians mechanicians,
meteorologists and experts in mining,
metallurgy and every other branch OF
practical science, as we'll as artists and
| photographers. 1t was but reasonable
to believe that in another world, and
a world SO much older than the earth
as Mars was. these men would be able
to gather materials in comparison with
which the discoveries made among the
ruins OF ancient empires in Egypt and
Babylonia would be insignificant in
deed.
1t vas a wonderful undertaking and
a strange spectacle. There was feel
ing of uncertainty which awed the vast
multitude whose eyes were upturned
] to the ships. The expedition was not
