V. to Meet at Danbury.
 The thirty-tifth annual reunion of the Twenty-third and Twenty eighth regiments, c. ", will be held at Dan bury, August 2S. Arrangements have been made to have the dinner served by the Danbury Woman's Relief corps at a small expense per member and ar engagements have been made with the railroad for half fare returning. These two regiments were among the nine months men, and both participated in the siege of Port Hudson in 1863. A great portion of the Twenty-third was captured by the Confederates pre- vious to the siege and held prisoners in Texas until their term of service eX- pired. There were very few of the men of either regiment who came home in good health, for the hS-dships they were obliged to endure through the siege were enough to shatter the strongest constitution, Until this year both regiments held their reunion at Pleasure Beach.

MAY END THE STRIKES.
Machinists and Employers to Hold y
Conference in New York
Tuesday.

Washington, June 24.--Settlement
of the machinists' strike may be
agreed upon at an important confer
ence which is scheduled for New York
city Tuesday. Many individual mem
bers of the Employers association
have accepted the demands of the
workmen. In Chicago, President
OCOnnell says, ten of the % members
of the association have yielded and So
other employers, practically all out
side the association, have also surren-
dered The same condition exists in
substantially all the large cities, ac-
cording to President O'Connell. He
says that only a small minority of the
employers have refused to accept the
demands. Those employers who are
resisting the strike contend that the
union officials have violated the agree
ment to arbitrate, but Mr.. O'Connell
insists that he and his associates are
ready to arbitrate and that the en-
ployers decline to meet them.
Ralph NJ. Easley, of Chicago, secre-
tary of the National Civic Federation,
has just left Washington after a con-
ference with Mr.. O'Connell and other
officers of the Machinists' union. He
brought with him an invitation ex-
tended by the National Civic Fedora
ton for the machinist officials to APP
point a committee of three to meet a
committee from the employers. The
invitation was promptly accepted by
Mr.. O'Connell and Mr.. Easley gave
him assurances that the conference
would be arranged. The employers
have been approached by Mr.. Easley
and invited to meet the machinists
and have had the invitation under con-
sideration for several days. Mr.. Eas-
ley is confident, from the encourage
ment given him by the employers,
that they will be represented by a
committee.
It will be a notable victory for the
national Civic Federation if the en-
ployers are persuaded to meet the Off
Gals of the Machinists' union. Mr..
O'Connell believes that a conference
with a free exchange of ideas will re-
suit in the employers granting the
worldngmen's demands. That the de-
mands were reasonable he demon
strates by showing that large ma
jority of the employers, members of
the association, have accepted them,
leaving the, minority to fight the
strike. The indications point strong
iy to settlement of the dispute early
next week.

TO SET RUSSIA RIGHT.
of This Country in Regard to
Tariff Matters.

Washington, June 22.-The most i'm
portant subject discussed at Fridays
cabinet meeting was that involving
the assessment of customs duties on
petroleum or it's products imported
from Russia. Secretary Gage, who
has direct charge of the enforcement
of the tariff laws, explained to the
president and the members of the cab
met in detail the departments connec-
tion with the matter and the history
of legislation affecting it. At the con-
clusion of the secretary's statement
all of the members, it is understood,
expressed themselves as in entire ac-
cord with Secretary Gage in the posi-
ton he l.as taken and requested that
he make statement covering the en-
tire ground.
AS a result of the consideration of
the entire matter by the cabinet Sec
rotary Hay will soon make representa-
tons to the Russian government fully
explaining the attitude of this coun-
try and pointing out that Russia has
acted hastily and under misappre-
hension of the facts in her position of
retaliation.

learned of Doan's Kidney Pills and
got them at Blakeslee Bros drug

time she commenced to feel better
and they finally set her kidneys to
working properly and with this
change came the gradually lessening

ATTACKED BY STRIKERS.
Labor Troubles Mt Columbia, S. G,
CuIminate in n RiOt-No
One Is Killed.

Columbia, S. c., June 24.-The South
ern railway shops in this city were at
tackled at $3.50 Sunday morning by a
mob of several score of men. No dam
age to property was attempted ex-
cept to break through the high fence
surrounding the yards. The strikers
were after the nonunion workmen and
made for car in which 20 were
sleeping. A man whose name is said
to be Myers was on guard He fired
both barrels of his gun into the crowd,
receiving himself 32-cahber bullet in
his forehead, but the skull was not
penetrated. The mob fred a great
many bullets into the car in which the
men were sleeping. None of the nom
unionists were wounded, but after
they had been dragged out of the car
they were pretty roughly handled.
They were marched up the railroad
track several miles and ordered to
travel north. Later in the day all but
one of these men were brought back
to the city by an expedition sent out
from the shops. 1t was not until Sun
day afternoon that it was known that
many of the rioters had been wounded.
Close inquiry developed the fact that
the wounds of four men, one of whom
was seriously hurt, had been dressed
Sunday morning by two physicians.
The doctors said they did not know
the names of the men.

how severely they saved. To the

A FOURTH OF JULY GIFT.
in Philippines on That Date
Is Issued.

Washington, June 22.-Secretary
Root Friday issued the order of the
president establishing civil govern
ment in the Philippines. The order
relieves the military governor of the
Philippines from the performance of
civil duties on and after July 4, but
declares that his authority will be ex-
ercised as heretofore in those districts
in which the instruction still exists.
Mr.. William H. Taft, president of the
Philippine commission, is appointed
civil governor and will exercise execu-
tive authority in all civil affairs in
the government of the Philippines
heretofore exercised in such affairs
by the military governor.
One of the important duties to which
Gen. Corbin will attend in the Philip
pines will be the enlistment of natives
as part of the army in the Philip
pines. The army law authorizes the
president to organize a force of not
more than $4,000 Filipinos as scouts, to
be Differed by Americans. At present
5000 Filipinos are acting as scouts.
They are organized into about 40 COM
panies and are serving in almost as
many different portions of the islands.
They do not belong to any one tribe.
1t is quite probable that such natives
Of the present scouting force as de-
sire to enlist in the regular force will
be accepted. Lieutenants of the regu-
lar army are to be selected as captains
of the companies and noncommis-
stoned officers of the regular army
will serve as first and second lieuten-
ants and battalion and squadron staff
officers.

FIRE AT THE HILL
The Valandingham Store Has a
Close Call. Is Badly
Scorched.
Special to DAILY HERALD.


Rose Hill, June 24-The store of e.
H. Valandingham, of this place, had
narrow escape from destruction by
fire Sunday morning about O'Clock.
If the fire had secured fair foot
hold and had been beyond the con-
troll of the local fire protection which
amounts to practically nothing there
would have been very bad fire, as
the office of DIR. Alvey and the livery
barn would also have burned, and
other buildings would have been in
the path of the flames. The timely
discovery of the fire by Chas. Sarvis
and Joe Lister and son Win is gener-
ally regarded as most fortunate.
They had been out fishing and In
passing the store they noticed that
smoke was pouring out of the Chin
ney as though there was winter
fire started in the stove. Smoke was
also putting from every crack and
crevice about window and door. The
alarm was given Immediately and
the store opened and the fire con-
trolled. 1t had started in the north
end of the general store near the
wareroom and had probably burned
several hours in a pile of overalls
and other clothing. The heat in the
building was most intense and it
would not have been long before the
interior would have burst into flames.
The paint of the woodwork was bis
tered and smoked. Other damage to
the building is not great and the loss
was adjusted this morning at $3.50.
There is greater damage to the
general stock, however, on account
of the heat and dense smoke. This
was insured in the Iowa State, of
Keokuk. and the Farmers Ins. Co.,
of Cedar Rapids, by the ]. Q. Sellers
agency, Of Oskaloosa, for $4,000.
The fire was very close call for
the business part of our little town.

WOOD VERY SICK.
fering Mt Havana from What Is
Feared to BE Yellow Fever.

Havana, June 24.-Maj. Gen. Leon
ard Wood, governor general of Cuba,
is i'll. All the symptoms go to show
that he is suffering from yellow fever.
While it is not generally known that
the governor general is confined to his
room with illness, it is admitted by
several army officers and intimate
friends that he has fallen a victim
to the dread disease. 1t is not known
how serious the attack is.
The American authorities have
claimed for some time that yellow
fever in this city, and, in fact, through
out the island, has been on the decline,
and only Saturday it was announced,
on the authority of Maj. Glennon, of
the marine hospital corps, that there
has not been case in this city for
nearly two months.

SACRED CANTATA
Methodist Church Choir Gives Pleas
ing Entertainment

There were special services at the
Central M. e. church last Sunday
evening in the shape of sacred can
tata, "The Shepherd Boy" given by
the choir to aid in raising the church
debt. The church was well filed,
nearly all the seats in the galleries
being taken and many of the people
occupying chairs in the Sunday
school room.
There was no sermon and the con-
gregation was given a genuine mu-
steal treat. Elmo Hammond, George
Yenney, Miss Clara Haynes and Miss
Myrtle Ware were the prominent So
loists of the evening and the chorus
was unusually good.
The church has a choir of some 35
voices and is unsurpassed by any
other in the city. A short time ago
when the church debt was to be
raised, the members of the choir
pledged themselves for 500. The
proceeds of Sunday nights enter
tainment will go on this pledge.
