feature of last evenings program was
the presentation of the charming dra-
ma. Turn of the Tide" by the North
Augusta Dramatic Club and it was
voted by all to be the best play yet
given.
Tie excellent production is due to q
great degree to the work of Mrs.
Frank Hewins, who has had the re-
hcarsais under her direction. Through
her instruction the play was not given
in the ragged amateur style often seen
in local predictions, but was put on
in first class shape. Without an eXcep-
ton the work of those taking part was
first SIS. and each one is deserving
of the highest praise.
.Much interest was taken in the
guessing contests for which quilts and
sofa pillows were offered the winners
and great quantities of fancy work.

LEAPED TO HIS DEATH.
Jacksonville (Fla.) Man Jumps From
the Brooklyn Bridge.

ss New York, June 5.-A man leaped
to death from the Brooklyn bridge
during the afternoon. Many people
saw him jump. He had an American
flag in each hand His body was re-
covered. The man appears to have
been Robert G. Bidwell Of 1925 East
Adams street, Jacksonville, Fla Sew
sral letters were found on the body.
One was addressed to R. R. Cham
plain, this city. .
Washington, June 5-Robert G..
BldWell was native of this city and
about 80 years of age. About three
months ago he and his wife went to
Jacksonville, where they had formerly
resided. Several days ago a letter
was received by Mrs. Bidwell from
her sons wife in Jacksonville, saying
that her husband was about to sail to
New York and that she would accom-
pany him. The unfortunate man
could not have been in New York
more than two or three days before
he made his fatal jump. Bidwell's
mother received an affectionate letter
from him telling Of his arrival. The
mother was greatly shocked by the
news of her sons act. It was said
that while Robert Bidwell was never
moody or respondent his head had
been slightly affected and at times he
was irresponsible. The opinion of his
mother and sister is that he became
temporarily unbalanced when he COM
mitted the tragedy that caused his
death. While in Jacksonville Bidwell
had written to his sisters husband
here saying he had been offered sew
eral positions and expected to accept
one of them which offered good ad-
vantages to him,

STEEL MAST BROKE,
Cup Defender Constitution Meets
With Mishap.

Newport, R. l., June 5.-While dash
ing along. in good wholesale breeze
off Brentons Reef lightship with three
lower sails set, the big hollow steel
mast on the Belmont syndicate cup
defender Constitution collapsed like
blow pipe, through the sudden
breaking of the starboard and wind
ward spreader.
The mast broke off only a few feet
below the spreader, about three-ffths
OF the length of the mast above the
deck, and as the topmast was carried
away at the same time none of lie
spars, except the boom, struck the
deck, and the latter only hit it light
blows, which did not injure the hull
at all. None of the sails were torn
and all can be used again. Fortunate
ly three seamen had just come down
from the masthead after taking in
the club topsail, but the wreckage
swept overheard Second Mate Ed
ward Nelson. He was promptly haul
ed on board, however, without sus-
tanning an ything more than a few
bruises.
The designer, Mr.. Nat Herreshoff,
was on deck, when the mast collapsed
and with him were w. Butler Duncan,
the manager of the yacht; Mr.. C. Oil
yer Iselin, who managed the Columbia
two years ago, when she sustained
similar accident; Rear Commodore
G. L. T. Robinson of the New York
Yacht club, and Mr.. Newbury Thorne,
and all escaped injury. The Consti-
tuition will be taken to Bristol, where
another steel mast is nearly finished.
The yacht will be Immediately re-
fitted, but it will probably be 10 days
or two weeks before she is in shape
to sail again, so that the races off this
port scheduled for June Is and II will
have to be postponed.

DISASTROUS COLLISION.
Three Passengers Killed and Sixteen
Injured at Atlanta. Ga.

Atlanta, Ga, June 5.-A switch en-
CINE in the yards of the Southern rail
way shops near the city limits dashed
into q passenger train as it was pass
ing, killing three passengers and in
Juring sixteen, three of them, it is
feared, fatally. ~. ,.-,-.,s. ~......
The dead are: Mrs. A. A. Lemon of
McDonough, Ga.,7 Irma, 1O-year-old
daughter of Mrs. Lemon; H. H.
Vickers, Floville, Ca. 49,. HI.
Just beyond the southern shops are
coal chute/ and all about these are
side tracks. On one of these side
tracks and only few feet from the
main track, an engine was standing
that had only short time before been
left by it's engineer and fireman.
= When the train was passing the
junction of this track, a switch en-
CINE suddenly dashed backward into
the moving train. The first class day
coach was thrown over On it's side and
partly demolished, a Pullman was
thrown from the track and one end
was smashed into kindling wood,
Wnlle Ine CfuckS were knocked from
under the combination smoker and
passenger coach.
Those killed were in the day coach.
Physicians and railroad officials were
quickly on he scene. The injured
were removed to the hospitals and
the dead were brought to Atlanta.
Soon after the wreck, G.. B. Dunton,
an employe of the Southern road, was
arrested On suspicion of having ran
the switch engine into the passenger
train. The Southern officials claim
that he was seen to get on the engine
and they say further that he had no
business There, as he is a yard con-
ductor. Dunton has ~everal gashes in
his head which he admits receiving
in the wreck, but he maintains that he
was not on the engine

mediate Danger.
washington, June 5.-Dr. Rixey was
at the White House an hour and
half during the evening and on leav-
Ing, In answer to inquiries concern
Ing Mrs. McKinley's condition, said:
There has been no important
change in Mrs. McKinley's condition
since we gave out our bulletin in
the morning. She is resting very
comfortably. Of course there are
fluctuations in her condition, at times
she is better and at times worse, but
she is certainly not losing ground.
IN fact she is possibly gaining very
slowly. There is no more immediate
danger now than there has been for
some time"
While DR.. Rixey was slightly more
hopeful in his talk the patients con-
dltlon cannot be said to show any ma
terlal change. It has been decided
not to hold consultations more than
once day unless a material change
for the worse should occur and that
the only bulletin to be issued shall be
one following the usual forenoon con-
sultation.
No one was admitted at the White
House after 9 o'clock, an hour earlier
rnah usual for closing the doors to
personal friends. One of the presi-
dents visitors said. it was conceded
Mrs. Mckinley was in a very grave
condition. There was some hope for
the outcome, he said, but it was
very slender hope.
