DEATH OF JAMES FREpEK1oKs.

Report has reached here through some
of the railway men of the death, in a
somewhat tragic way, OF James Freder-
icks, former we'll known railway fire.
man, at Leadville.
1t appears from the report that he
was fireman on an engine that had gone
out from Leadville last Sunday to re-
lieve the blockade on one Of the branch
roads running into Leadville. Their
train was struck by an avalanche Of
snow and the engine overturned.
The crew was unhurt and they made
their way to a section house where they
found the wife Of the section boss dead.
Fredericks had contracted 30 severe a
cold by this time that he concluded that
he could not venture any further and
decided to stay at the section house.
Suffering severely, as he was at the time
he was decided in his mind that he
could not wade back with the rest of the
crew to Leadville.
The crew promised to come back for
him on Monday with an engine and
bring him to the city. They were as
good rs their word, but whom they ar
rived at the section house Fredericks,
who was really suffering from pneu-
monia, could not talk. He was pretty
far gone but they decided to take him
to Leadvllle, but the exposure was too
great and he died in that city on Tues
day.
The deceased was strong, fine look
young man of genial disposition and
had many friends in this city, who will
wourn his untimely death.

the gallant Yankee shot across the fin
ish between the lightship and the COM
mittee boat the shippers of the feet that
had gotten there in time almost forgot
to open their whistles, so absorbed were
they in the stirring spectacle. But
they made up for it later. The defeated
challenger rushed across five minutes
and seventeen seconds later.
The much touted rough weather boat
had been beaten over a thirty mile
course six minutes and eighteen sec
onds, actual time, or with the allowance
she was to concede Columbia on ac-
count OF her LANCER water line, six min
utes and thirty-four seconds. The
shamrock got a noisier reception than
Columbia as she finished because per-
haps the later time at which she crossed
gave opportunity for some of the be-
lated vessels to get up.
A grand spectacle followed. The
victor, after lowering her sails, set the
stars and stripes at her top mast truck
az both ends of her spreader and at the
taffrail. Soon the whole feet blossomed
out in American flags. Patriotic skip
pers ransacked their lockers for them
aad they flew from every staff and mast.
The Corsalr, the flagship of the New
York Yacht Club, had six flags tapping
in the stiff breeze as she went along
side the Columbia and gave her three
s~hrieking blasts. Then her crew cheer
ed and the hardy Deer Islanders aboard
Columbia responded with barred heads.
All the ships in the excursion feet fol-
lowed, turning loose their whistles in
a maddening chorus, whose notes
ranged from the deep bass of the Sound
steamers TO the shrill falsetto of the
torpedo boats. Some of the excursion
boats kept their whistles going half
way to New York.
Later the Erin, which had remained
behind for a few minutes with the
Shamrock, steamed up to the Columbia,
the stars and stripes futtering from
main to mizzen. The Corsair greeted
her with cannon. which Sir Thomas
acknowledged by dipping the English
jack at the taffrail. Then by Sir
Thomas orders
THE CREW OF THE ERIN
lined the rail and gave three good
Anglo-Saxon cheers for the victors.
They were returned with interest by
the proud crew Of the Columbia. The
American boat was the first to reach
her mooring buoy inside the Hook, and
when her late rival came up in tow,
the sailors of both seized the opportu-
nifty &c cheer each other Justify. Later
Sir Thomas went aboard the Corsair
and there soon afterward Mr.. Iselin,
managing owner of the Columbia, join
ed him. There were toasts to victor
and vanquished, to America and Great
Britain, to gentlemen and ladies. and
all sorts of things, and so, with felicia
lions all around. the cup series for 1893
ended with the best of good feeling.

THE ASPECT


LONDON, October 20.-The London
manager of the Bank of the South Afrl-
can Republic made the following state
ment to-day to the Associated Press.
When n considers the average
weekly gold exports from the Tr~ansvaal
TO England, which you may estimate at,
G400,000, to say nothing of d consider
able amount that goes weekly to tho
continent, 1t is impossible to believe
that the complete cessation OF such q
large amount Will not create some
stringency, especially as the only way
to meet the increased British expendi-
ture in South Africa is to ship out
gold"
These conditions were keenly realized
by the larger financial house and
throughout the week the stock exchange
has been In a state of anxiety regarding
the measures the government will adopt
to raise the necessary funds.
1t is a curious fact that South Afri-
can stocks have not glumped. In many
cases they have even risen. This ia
probably due to the implicit belief OF
the average investor In the might Of
British arms and to the supposition that
the mines will soon come under British
control.

81 am very glad to speak to the peo-
pie of this county. In 1896, you gave
something like LOO majority for the
Democratic ticket, out of a total Of less
than 5000. The Republican policy is
so bad that there is not a reasonable
excuse for the minority among you
Mr.. Bryan related the story of the
young medical student who would bleed
every patient, regardless OF the disease,
and when the patient became so weak
he could stand it no longer the student
would prop him up in bed and bleed
him again.
And that is the way of the Republi-
can party" continued the speaker. 1T

ton which has come before the coan-
try. The time has come 0 when the

Of the Republican party. / believe in
an income tax, and | believe it is the
most just of ali axes. The platform of
1896 favored it and your GAINESVILLE
platform reaf1irmed the 1896 platform"
MIR. Bryan then discussed silver, the
trusts and imperialism.
OTTAWA, Ohio, October 20.-There
was a large and demonstratiye crowd
here, the people coming from the sur
rounding country for miles. Mr.. Bryan
apoiigized for using a skull cap, and a
later when the platform gave
evidence Of falling, Mr. Bryan observed:
THAT shows how dangerous it IS 10
be on any other than the Chicago plat
form-a platform that never breaks
down, and is stronger 0 than when
it was written"
MI. Bryan had three reasons for visit
ing people at this time, first, TO thank
the people for the large vote given him
in 1896; second, whore the vote was
small, to do some missionary work. and.
third. where the vote of the counties
was close, to hold meetings with the OBJ
ject Of increasing the vote Of his party.
Now, my friends" said Mr.. Bryan,
sI will trade votes in 1900 for votes this
fall, if you WI give Us a large vote
this fall I will be satisfied" A voice.
THAT means Mclean"
YES, sir. that means Mclean and
everybody else" The money question
and the anti-opsion bill were then dis
cussed at length By the speaker.

special to the Sclmitar from Canton,

The little town of St. Anne, twenty
miles east of Canton, in Leake county,
was last night the scene of a horrible
tragedy sequel to the burning of the
Gambril family the night before. Joe
LAHORE, a negro, who was captured by
a posse, confessed that he, in company
with other negroes, had tied Mrs. Gam
bril- and her four children to the floor
of the house, saturated the surround
ings with kerosene and burned the I'M
fortunate people alive. The negro, af-
ter the confession Of the crime, was
promptly roped to a stake and burned
to a crisp, while the citizens looked on
in grim silence.
Another negro, Bob Smith, was saved
just in the nick of time, as some doubt
existed as to his guilt.
The Cambria tragedy occurred early
Thursday morning and it was first
thought the fire was the result Of accl-
dent.
A casual investigation revealed cir
cumstances so suspicious that a mora
searching investigation was made, and
it was soon established beyond doubt
that the family had been murdered and
the house burned.
A posse was Immediately formed to
scour the country and follow every pos
sible clue. Before the posse left st.
Anne it wa discovered that Joe lahore,

and who had not borne a good repnta-
ton, had disappeared. Early last even

the negro vigorously denied any knowl-
edge of the crime, but he finally broke
down completely and confessed that he
and Bob and Andrew Smith, two other
negroes, were guilty. He hoped for no
mercy and told with brutal frankness
all the details of the crime. In the
yard where the Cambria residence. had
stood LAHORE was tied to a stake and
burned alive. No one SEM a merciful
bullet into his body to kill him. An

while Lofore was being burned and has
not yet been captured. Bob Smith was
tied to another stake and a fire started,
though he was finally released, as there
was a possibility of his proving his in

if it is proven that he and his brother
Bob are guilty it is thought that no
