for the most part, denied their religion

p~erforce did likewise and partook large

The use of fish On Friday became a GUS
tom with them, and. like other Ingram
ed customs, was kept up when the NOV
ing cause had long passed away.

and Orange Free State by violence.
The alternative which Mr.. Cham
berlain, who has espOused the cause
OF the foreigners in the Transvaal,
now offers is war.
As has already been said in these
columns, the majority of the British
people do not desire war. But Par
Lament has been prorogued, and is
not for the present in the way of Mr..
Chamberlain. He represents the
Liberal Unionists in the British
Cabinet. 1t is believed that his
Tory colleagues are not in favor of
war, but unless they humor Cham
berlain they fear a disruption of the
alliance between the Liberal Union
lists and the Tories. So there is the
question whether Chamberlain. in
the recess of Parliament, may not be
able to plunge the country into a
war In spite of the wishes of she ma
jourity OF his colleagues and of the
people. He controls the official in-
telligence from South Africa. His
creatures send reports daily from
that region so manipulated as to
nourish whatever war feeling may
exist.
This is, briefly stated, the situa-
tion. 1t is as If the Emperor of China
should demand that the Chinese in
the United States be made citizens
along with all others that may
choose to come hereafter. The only
difference between this case and
that in the Transvaal is difference e
of might and not of right.

A SLICK ARTIST.
A Young Man Arrested on Serious
Charges.

Young Man Arrested on Serious
Charges.
Several weeks ago young man
by the name of Ambrose Page,
giving his address as Richmond,
Va, came to this city. He engaged
boarding at Mrs. Leneave's on South
Garden street, and slept at Mrs.
Mike Winegartner's two doors be-
low. Page was a nicely dressed
young man, of pleasant appearance,
and tried to make himself very
agreeable. He ingratiated himself
with those with whom he become
acquainted, and was quite attentive
to several of Columbia's lies, and
being possessed of a good voice, he
was also invited to sing in the First
Methodist church choir. After re-
naming here several days, he con
tinued his social itinery to Frank
lin, where he ran up against a snag
in most abrupt manner one day
last week and at this point is where
the interesting part of the story be-
gins.
Page was arrested in franklin
Thursday night and carried to Nash
vile, on the charge of obtaining
money under false pretenses. His
arrest was due to complaint made
at police headquarters in Nashville
by B. G. Campbell, who lives at
Franklin. Mr.. Campbell stated that
two rings had been stolen from his
house and he had reason to suspect
Page, as the young man had spent
night at his house recently. Tbe
rings were found in pawn shop in
Nashville, and by this means the
theft was traced to him. Later,
other thefts of jewelry in Franklin
and Florence, Ala, We're also traced
to him, and Page confessed that he
was the guilty party.
During Pages stay here, Mrs
Winegartner missed several pieces
of jewelry, but was loath to suspect
the young man. After hearing of
his arrest in Nashville, however, she
became convinced that he had stolen
them, and placed the matter in the
bands of the officers here. Mr..
Weingartner valued the missing
jewelry at about $50, and warrant
charging the young man with grand
| larceny was sworn out. Officer
Guest went to Franklin Sunday,
where he recovered all of the miss.
ing jewelry except one small piece
of little value, and from there he
went to Nashville to serve the war
rant. A ring belonging to Mr.. Wine
gartner was found in the possession
of young lady in Franklin, aud
| Page had her ring.
Pages father, who is quite
wealthy and lives in Richmond
agreed to pay the young man out O
his difficulty, and he will not be
prosecuted. Page lived for two
/ years at Evansville, Ind, where he
was assistant Secretary of the Y. M

Remarkable Experience of Boy at
Chattanooga.

Remarkable Experience of Boy at
Chattanooga.
CHATTANOOGA, Aug. 28.-A re-
markable physical phenomenon oc-
Cured here last night. A l4-year-
old boy named Hitzf1eld, who re-
sides in one of the suburbs, went to
bed at his home last night about 8
O'Clock, not feeling well. About 8
o'clock he arose from his bed, put
on his clothes; took an electric car
for the city, and went to the depot,
where he purchased a ticket for
Rome, Ga. Reaching Rome, he
took cab for one of the hotels,
where he retired. All this was done
while he was sound asleep. When
he awoke this morning he could
hardly be made to believe that he
was not at home. He returned to
the city on the first train. He is
now suffering from brain fever. The
doctors here are puzzled over the
case, aud say il is one of the most
remarkable they have known in
their experience. The boy is very
exemplary, and no one doubts the
story OF MS experience.

THE TERRIBLE EXAMPLE.
What Free Silver Has Done for Mexico
Our Nearest NeighbOr.

What Free Silver Has Done for Mexico,
Our Nearest Neighbor.
Mexico, our nearest neighbor, is
the victim of what our financial eX-
perts call a dishonest, anarchistic
money standard. Let us look at her
and take warning. We learn from
Bradstreets that, Notwithstanding
extraordinary expenses of over
$4,000, the department of finance
reports cash surplus of $1,000, 900,
Mexican securities are going up in
the investment markets of the
world, railroad builders and manu-
facturers are leaving gold standard
countries to develop the resources of
poor old silver standard Mexico.
Her exports of agricultural products
have largely increased and indus
trial conditions are improving more
rapidly than in any gold standard
country in the world. Mexico is be-
ing covered with network of rail-
roads and telegraph lines, education
is being diffused through a splendid
system of public schools, and colo
nies are moving in from other coun-
tries to better their conditions. All
this seems strange to one looking
through gold-rimmed spectacles af-
ter having heard the authoritative
dicta Of gilt economists that a cur
rency based on anything else than
gold is commercial disaster and
! financial ruin. 1t is really strange
how completely facts upsets theo-
ries, when theories are the out
urowth of salfiahnqSa and greed
And our gold standard advocates
have ceased to hold Mexico up be-
fore the American people as an aw-
ful example Of financial ruin result
ing from the general diffusion
among the people Of silver money
