Your purpose was to give the rebels
encouragement to embarrass the gov
ernment of the United States and 10
induce the rebels to hold out until,
perhaps, you could try your luck in
having the names of the loyal con-
gressmen taken off the list at the next
elec on.
Not precinct in the First Ohio
Congressional district would elect you
or one of your kind as a delegate to a
convention to nominate a director of
the county poor house The citizens of
this district are loyal, patriotic peo-
pie, and am sure they are not in
sympathy with ,mose who are doing
all they can to embarrass President
Mckinley and t-e government in the
effort to restore order and SUPPRESS re-
belIion in the Philippine islands.
when that is accomplished ii will be
time to determine what form of gov
ernment shall be established in those
islands.
Our people applaud the speech made
by your president recently, when he
said, speaking of our flag, "a, is the
lag of the free, the hope of the OPP
pressed, and wherever it is assailed, at
any sacrifice, 1t will be carried to tri
umphant peace" That was the kind
of talk our people like to hear.
For fear that you will forget it, let
me suggest that you make memor-
andum that the nomination for con-
gress in the First Ohio district will be
made about September, 1900 1t will be
necessary for you, to secure the results
you desire, to commence your work a
little before that time-the earlier the
etter-for l am assured that your
friend, Aguinaldo, will cease to exist
as a military chieftian long before
tha, date. Very respectfully,
w. B. SHATTUC, M. C.

Monument Struck by Light
ming.

Not even the lightning can prevail
against that most magnificent handl-
work of man, Ine Washington mon
ument. In a report just made to the
War Department by Colonel Bingham,
The engineer officer in charge of public
buildings and grounds, says Washing
toms monument was struck by hight
ming during an electrical storm on
July 10, but sustained no serious dam
age. The fluid followed the conduct
ing columns in the interior of the
shaft down to the fifty-foot landing,
where I left the northwest column,
struck the floor plate in the rear of the
elevator and exploded; llen into the
engine room on the pipes and wires,
wher the only damage done was the
burning out Of the magnetic bell on
the telephone and so breaking connec-
ton between the engine room and
boiler house. The lightning also went
into the lodge house on the telephone
wire and burnt out the telephone.
Colonel Bingham says IL Is a curious
coincidence that each time the monu-
ment has been struck by lightning the
Rde4 has left the column all about the
same place.-~Commereial Tribune

watch but it never gets in sight.
However, we Chesterfield people

For shooting on the Public High

For shooting on the Public High
way.
Very few people regard the
law against shooting within so
yards of the public highway but
Jim Dixon, coIored, will be apt
to regard it from this time on.
He was convicted before Magis-
trate Caskcy Monday of this Of
fence and has gone to work on
the county roads for 80 days in
lieu of paying a fine of SIC.
Dixon was standing at the
edge of the road in thicket near
Capt Rives' last Sunday afternoon
and fired his pistol just as Mr.
Braska Moore and his sister were
passing in buggy returning home
from preaching.S The Ball went
whizzing by Mr. MOORE and he
thought the negro was shooting at
him. The negro ran off into the
woods, Mr. Moore following after
him as soon as he could quiet his
mule. Capt Rives ran out and
remained with Miss Moore while
Mr. Braska made q thorough
search of the woods. Not finding
the negro he brought his sister
on home and returned with his
father and Mr. l. S Elliott when
they found Dixon Mt Il woman's
house in the neighborhood. He
claimed that the discharge of his
pistol was accidental. He was
indicted and coveted as above
stated and may have to answer to
4 charge Of carrying a concealed
pistol.

CHERAW'S PROPOSED ROAD
Encouraging Prospects of Get,ng
to Lancaster.
Special to The State.

SpeClal TO lhe State.
Cheraw, July 2O.-The man
agement Of the Chesterfield and
Kershaw Railroad company, the
proposed road from Cheraw to
Lancaster, is working quietly but
it is believed effectively towards
having the road built at an early
date. The promoters are salts
fled that it will be a profitable in
vestment for the company that
builds it, and great benefit to a
large and rich section of country.
Along the line from Cheraw to
Lancaster it would pass through
as fine farming section us is to he
found IN the State SO far as natur
al advantages are concerned. There
is also excellent timber along the
entire route, fine streams, and an
economical and industrious peo
pie The road would run through
fine kaolin deposits and take in
the rich Jefferson cold mining re,
gion. In fact the road would
doubtless enter Brewer mine,
possibly the richest in the south,
1t would be difficult to find in the
same distance anywhere Il greater
variety of inducements to a pro,
posed road and it is this that as
sures its early completion.

Farmers Urged to Hold Cotton.

Natchez, Mich, July 80. In
its leading editorial tomorrow, the
NatcheZ Democrat will make an
appeal to cotton farmers to hold
back one-third of their glnnings
until after December or January.
"The two thirds will bring
nearly as much money, marketed
in this way, as the whole crop
marketed in the usual way" says
the editorial. "The government
says the July condition is three
and four tenths per cent. less or
total depreciation of eleven and
four tenths per cent.
ESTIMATING the current crop
at II, 200, 600 bales, it means a
shrinkage Of l PIT, 900 bales or a
crop of 1928, 200 bales for 1899

NEvADA's FOOTBALL TEAM.
Riordan a Star Player--Game
with u. p. Team Dead Easy.

The Nevada University team won the
football game in the contest with that
OF the University of the Pacific, played
on the campus at Reno Monday last.
The score stood 63 to 8. The game
between the Santa Clara team and the
Nevada team will take place Saturday
afternoon, October 2Sth.
Saturdays Journal says: ION the
University gridiron the practice during
the last few days. while fairly good, has
not come up to the standard required
by Coach Dickson.
"Liven up. play hard!' is the cry
that now comes from the side-line bas-
sos.
Keddie, the doughty right guard, Is
rapidly developing into a phenomenal
kicker. Not satisfied with having
broken the coast record with punt of
70 yards during the recent Z. p. game.
last evening he surprised ever those
who know his ability by kicking In
rapid succession seven goals from the
field.
The star player at the end is Riordan.
For man of his weight, the manner in
which he gets down under long punts Is
remarkable and his tsekeling IL superb.
He is as yet novice to the game and
experts predict that with a few season s
practice he will develop into one of the
best players on the coast.

FILIpINOS ASK FOR PEACE.

MANILA, Oct. 2l.-Three insurgent
officers entered Angeles this morning
and applied to General Macarthur for
permission for Filipino commission,
headed by Filipino Major-General, to
visit General Otis, in order to discuss
peace terms, and to arrange for the de-
livery of more American prisoners, as
well as to consider methods for the re-
lease of the Spanish prisoners.
General Otis replied that the desired
interview could not be granted. because
the suggested propositions OF the Fill
pinos are vague, indefinite and unmili-
tlry and because the Americans must
continue to decline to receive any rep
resentative of the so-called Filipino gov
ernment.

warrant the erection OF a ten-stamp

work of sinking has been discontinued
the Poorman ledge having been encoun-

feet, the last 80 feet OF the shaft being

grade of milling ore, the last five feet
