TRAVEL VERY HEAVY.


There has never before been a period In
the history OF the lines entering Seattle
when the large amount Of travel kept up
for such length of time as at present. Not
only is the incoming heavy, but Outgoing
is also exceptionally large and causes a
wonder where all the people are bound.
Northern Pacific baggage rooms are from
morning to night piled high with baggage
and not infrequently $50 TO 500 pieces are
handled daily. This is ordinary travel and
sions which brought thousands of people to
the city when the crush in the baggage
rooms made Il almost impossible to do
business and where much more baggage
was handled. This business has kept up
for Eve months past and gives every fndi-
cation of continuing for some time TO come.

Fireworks Blown Up.

Thirty-six buildings comprising al
most the entire plant of the Nordllnger
Charlton Fireworks company at Gran
iteville, Richmond borough, New York
were blown up Thursday afternoon and
the entire fireworks plant practically
wiped out of existence. Although the
fires which followed the explosion las I
ed for several hours, the wreck was
complete within a few minutes. No
lives we're lost, and but three persons
were injured, two of them seriously.
The operators in the various buildings
rushed out into the yards, the flying
rockets, many Of them of the greatest
power, made it almost as dangerous for
the employers to be out Of the build
ings as to be in them. As they rushed
out explosion followed explosion as the
buildings few into the air. After a
score Of explosions three heavy ones
that shook the ground for miles, occurr-
ed. These were the three store houses
in which supplies for the Fourth of
July were being held. Loss, about

Outrage REPAID in Kind.

4 dispatch from San Antonio De Los
Banos, Cuba, says that Jose Labregat,
notorious agent of Gen Weyler, who
outraged defenceless women and killed
children, arrived there Tuesday. His
appearance was the signal for gather
ing of relatives and friends of those
whom he formerly prosecuted. The ex-
citement continued throughout the day
aud Tuesday night. About midnight a
crowd surrounded the house where he
was and begun to threaten him. He at
tempted to escape, and on meeting the
demonstrators emptied his revolver,
wounding two persons. The crowd
Immediately closed in and captured
him and he was lynched in the public
square. The anxiety following the ex-
citemsnt caused committee of Span
iards to come to Havana to ask the in
reference of Gen Brooke. He could
not receive them before late hour Of
the evening, but he readily offered to
send a detachment Of American SOL
diers to the town. The committee,
which left San Antonio before the
lynching, returned to find Labregat
dead.

Agpipaldo's Latest Move.

Special dispatches from Manila
Thursday say it is reported that Aguin-
aldo has Dissolved the Filipino congress
and has proclaimed himself dictator.
The officials in Washington atein doubt
as to whether Aguinaldo ia declaring
his dictorship is animated by desire
to rid himself Of his refractory generals,
Pillar and lunar, or whether he aims to
consolidate in his osn hands the power
to make terms Of peace. 1t is known
from the reports of President Schurman
Of the American Philippine commission
that these two generals own only faint
allegiance to Aguinaldo and their att
tude towards the peace, negotiations has
made them Intellectual, the civilian
members on the Filipino side of the
Filipino joint commission being over
awed by these generals. Itis dominated
by the military element controlled
By these generals. 1t is believed here
that if Aguinaldo can bend these men to
his will and assume supreme control he
will at once make for peace, being able
to secure better terms for himself than
he would otherwise.

AT GREAT WINTHROP.
Brilliant Closing of South Carolina's
Woman's College.

Wednesday was commencement day
at Winthrop! Two thousand were pres
ent to witness the SO graduates receive
their diplomas. The chapel was pack
ed to its utmost capacity and hundreds
were in the Railways and parlors unable
to get near the doors.
Seated on the right of the rostrum
was the graduation class, clad in their
immaculate white uniforms, while on
the left could be seen the familiar
faces Of the faculty and the board Of
trustees.
The Cecilia chorus, consisting Of IS
under the dictatorship Of Prof. ". R.
Brown, occupied position near the
front. President johnson is justly
proud Of the senior class, for they are
the first to 60 forth from this institu-
ton who have completed the full four
years course.
Winthrop college is no longer an ex-
pertinent, but an established reality,
and if every citizen Of South Carolina
could have been present Wednesday to
witness what has and is being done 70,
the elevation and uplifting of our fair
young women their hearts would swell
with pride.
There is no period in life more inVit-
ing and bouyant than when the chimes
of commencement music calls the sweet
girl gradutes to the arena of their tri-
umphs and bids them pour out the har-
monies of their grateful hearts for tae
benefcence which unselfsh tutelage
has showered upon thoir young lives.
Sweet womanhood in its blush and
bloom" Of youth steps upon the tapis to
be greeted and cheered by the echoes of
mans most responsive impulse, and
providence looks on in smiling appro-
val because the climax of his creative
power was realized when the woman
was made to cheer and comfert the
man.
Living as we 10 under the protection
Of an enlightened government, where
the principles Of religion, liberty and
law are recognized, We ought to con-
gratulate ourselves at the great strides
Of educational advancement which ex-
lists on every hand and which portend
in the future better apportionment
between the sexes of the avenues and
opportunities of employment and en-
terprise for the promotion Of the COM
fort and happiness Of the race.

a Deal in Columbia.

The Columbia Electric Light and
Railway Company was sold Thursday to
a syndicate, represented by Mr.. P. q.
Gadsden, Of Charleston. 1t develops
that Mr.. Gadsden has had control Of a
majority of the stock for some time,
and called upon the local holders to
come in on the deal. This they unani-
mously decided to do, and the sale vas
consummated. The price paid was
s257, 900, and the stockholders get
about fifty cents on the dollar, which
tley consider the best offer that has
been made them. Negotiations have
been in progress for some time looking
to the sale of the road to other people,
but none Of them amounted to any
thing.
