"Does Morgan think he can frighten
US by waving the red flag so soon?' con-
tinued Mr.. Snaffer. II say again that
he is a fool and a knave to resort to such
tactics. Does he think we are fools?
Does he thluk bluff and bluster will
drive our men into the mills again and
make them traitors to their obligation,
or is he trying to rig the stock market?
Morgan is a business man. Why
does he not treat the demands OF the
workingnen as business man shouldr

his millions.

FOUR OFFICERS AMONG DEAD.
Desperate Attack by Delarey's Beers
Who Were Finally Repulsed. Leaving
80 Dead on the FieId-Lord Kitchener
Sends Regrstful Report

On the anniversary of Lord Rob-
erts' entry into johannesburg Great
Britain has been startled by the re-
ceipt of news of desperate fighting
and heavy British losses within forty
miles of the Gold Reef City. The bat
tie of Vladfontein, on the Durham
Johannesburg railroad, reported by
Lord Kitchener Friday, is the most
serious engagement since Gen. Glenn
ent's reverse at Magaliesburg. 1t
shows Gen. Delarey is in no way
daunted by the capture of eleven OF
his guns by Gen. Darlington six weeks
ago. The garrison of Vladfontein, ap-
parently largely composed of yeo-
many. had ia men put out of action.
That their assailants came to close
quarters and suffered heavily is shown
by the number of dead left on the
field.
The dispatch from Lord Kitchener,
dated Pretoria, May 80, is as follows:
Gen. Dixon's force at Vladfontein
was attacked yesterday by Delarey's
forces and there was severe fighting.
THE enemy was eventually driven
off with heavy loss, leaving 80 dead.
81 regret that our casualties also
were severe.
1.-The killed and wounded numbered
174.
-Four officers were killed"

Plague at Hong Kong.

The epidemic of bubonic plague is
increasing at Hong Kong. The cases
among the Asiatics during the past
month averaged forty a day, and those
among the Europeans twelve. Consid-
cradle discussion is going on as to
the disagreement of the colony. The
epidemic now prevailing is attributed
to the bad drainage system, the in
tense overcrowding of houses, and the
lack of an efficient municipal admins
tration. The medical STATS of the
board Of health are scandalously un-
dermanned. and the government is in
active. Many Chinese are leaving. and
the Europeans are sending out calls
for indignation meetings.

Son.

Son.
After five years of rivalry between
the leaders of the two great religious
movements the famous breach be-
tween Gen. William Booth, the found
er and head of the Salvation Army of
the world, and his son, Darlington
Booth, who is at the head Of the Vol
unteers of America, may soon be
healed. l. d. Hazard of New York,
and social settlement department Of
the Salvation Army of America, who
is now in Cleveland, is authority for
the statement, according to dispatches
from the Ohio city, that secret negO-
tiations are now being carried on with
the view to effect a reconciliation be-
tween Gen. William Booth and his
son. Gen. William Booth planted the
seed from which the Salvation Army
has grown and he has lived to see it
the greatest religious organization of
modern times, so far as work among
the lower and criminal classes is con-
cerned. For twelve years Ballington
Booth was the commander in chief of
the Salvation Army and about five
years ago, when he disagreed with his
the Salvation Army and organized
what is known as the Volunteers of
America The rupture between the
father and the son caused widespread
discussion.

FIVE THIEVES ARE LYNCHED.
Stockmen at Lookout, CAL, Hang Pris-
cuers to Bridge.


Five thieves were lynched Friday
night at Lockout, MOdOc Co., Calf,
a district which has always been not
ed for quiet and good order. The
lynching was done by fifty small stock
raisers, but none of the vigilantes was
identified by the conStables and his
one assistant, whom they overpow-
cred. Calvin Hall, aged Y, his three
half-bred sons, Frank, aged %; Jim,
aged 10, and Martin, aged 16. and
Dan Yantis, aged 81 were the vic
Tins The charge against Halls sons
and Yantis was burglary, while
against Hall it was petty larceny.
Many small articles had been missed
recently, among others hay forks, barb
wire and harness. These were found
in Halls house, along with halters,
dishes and table cloths. All five were
arrested and taken to Adm, the coun-
ty seat of Modoc county, and placed in
charge of the constable and one guard.
Fifty masked men, heavily armed, took
the prisoners from Jail soon after mid
night and within a few minutes the
five bodies were hanging from bridge
near the Jail. Old man Hall was the
first one strung up. No ceremony
marked the action. The rope was
simply thrown around his neck and
twenty willing hands grasped it and
jerked the unfortunate man from his
feet. The loose end was tied to a
convenient fence post and the victim,
with his hands and feet tied, was left
to strangle. The execution of the
other men was practically a repetition
of that of the elder Hall.
