CoLUmBIA's GRAND FESTIVAL.
Preparations Now Complete for the
Great Performances.

Columbia, April 27 Special: Every
arrang. ment for the grand ce6icerts Of
the Columbis Festival Association, to
take place on May and Z, is now COM
plete There will be one concert on
the. former day and TWO concerts on the
latter.
The chorus Of 200 voices, under the
direction of Prof, Ki,tredge Of the
Presbyterian College for Women has
made excellent progress, and the ex-
pactations Of the public as to this
feature will be fully realized. In addi-
ton an array of talent, from New York
hiss been engaged Altogether, such an
organization has never been seen in
Columbia.
C.mpauari heads the list Of singers
and stands among the leading stars in
iu the Metropolitan grand opera caste,
New York city. Il close comparison
follow Mr.. Glenn Hall, Mr.. Gailyn
Miles. Mrs Marie Kunkel Zimmerman,
Miss Fielding R>selle and Miss Marie
Nichols, all Of whom are artists Of
national reputation.
The superb Boston Festival orches-
ira, comprising so musicians, will he an
extraordinary feature Of the occasion.
Of this organization to much cannot be
said. The press everywhere speaks in
terms similar to the following from the
Springfield Republican,:
The Boston Festival orchestra is
indeed a highly satisfactory organiza.
tion, and the musical association is
fortunate indeed in having so fine body
of musicians available. The excellence
Of the solo winds is surprising. The
fpe quslity of the strings has also been
constantly in evidence. Mr.. Mollen-
tauer is an admirable conductor and
d,lI-master, and the quality Of his dis
cipline is shown By the ensemble at
tanned in spite Of the limited time
available for rehearsal. There is hard.
ly any other orch e'tra in the country
which could do such satisfactory work
uader the same circumstances. The
men play with snap and 7igor, and do
not seem to lose interest in their work
by reason Of much vain repetition at
one festival after another. The rem
deriDg of the Mendelssohn symphony
was an uncommonly strong and artistic
piece of work"
The prices Of the season tickets
scarcely average 81 a concert, which is
about one third the price paid in east
ern cities for similar concerts. A
ticket costing FIVE dollars is good for
two seats at each Of the three concerts.
All the railroads have fixed rate Of
one fare for the round trip.
A grand SUCCESS is already assured.

A terrible story Of the fate Of g party

Poor Old China.

The Atlanta Journal says there can
be little doubt that the real design and
hope Of the powers in demanding exor-
bitant indemnities from China is to
divideup the empire among themselves.
They certainly know that China cannot
raise the $500, 100000 which would be
required to pay their aggregated de.
mands, and such failure would afford
the pretexs Of dismembering China and
distributing the pieces. The entire re-
venues of the Chinese government
amount to only about s5l, 100000 q
year, which is barely sufficient to meet
the expenses of the governmental ma
chinery, crude as it is, and to pay the
interest on the s250,000,O00 Of out
standing Chinese bonds. Chinese Gre
dit was low before the recent conpli-
cations and they have naturally degra'
ded further. The proper name for the
scheme which the powers are working
would be plot to cut up and appropri-
ate the Chinese empire.

An Inhuman Father.

Suspicion IN the brutal murder Of
Eve children, aged respectively Il, II,
7, 5, 4 years, which occurred at farm
in the neighborhood Of Charities,
France, now falls upon the father ei
the children. It is suggested that the
father murdered his children in fl Of
drunken madness, as he spent the
evening in drinking and no trace Of the
alleged trsnps has been found. It is
a strange fact that while the children
were killed with hammer or bludgeon
the father was only stabbed and his
wounds are slight. The knife with
which these wounds were make belongs
to the house and blood-stained jacket
belonging to the father was discovered
in the court yard hidden under some
stray. Bri.r r,, the father, was con-
frcnted With the corpses Of his children
and be was afterwards arrested.

THE CAPTURE OF REESE
And the Part Lancaster Men Took
In It.

A special to the State from Lsncas-
ter says the news Of the capture Of
Marion R. Reese, at Oxford, Miss,
vas asurprise to every body here, except
ing three men, namely, ". G. R. Por
ter, j. NJ. Csskey and j. B. Sims, who
were instrumental in bringing it about.
The facts briefly are these:
y. A. Montgomery, formerly of Ian
caster, but now residing at Oxford, is
in the employ of United States Mar
shal Buchanan Of Mississippi. Some
few weeks ego Mr.. Montgomery wrote
his cousin, j. Montgomery Caskey, ask
ing him 70 try ard procure the photo.
graphs of Reese, Luckle and Mrs. An
derson, and send to HIM st once; that
there was a man and woman IN OK
ford who had never heen known, since
their residence there, to 90 to the post.
Office either to mail letters or to ask
for letters. Mr.. Caskey after receiving
the letter showed it to Mr.. Porter, who
said he would make the effort to get
the photographs. He, accordingly,
spoke to M Sims, who at once, wrote
Sheriff Logan Of York county, request
ing that he send him the photographs.
On tbe 8th April instant, Sheriff Logan
sent Mr.. Sims photographs Of Reese,
Luckie and Mrs. Anderson with a mi
mute description of all three. The pho
tographs and description we're at once
sent to Mr.. J. a. Montgomery, at OK
ford. The next step was the arrest Of
Reese, news of which was contained
in Sundays State. Thus it will be
seen that Lancaster men, three at this
end, viz: W. G.. A. Porter, j. NJ. Cas-
key and j. B. Sims, AID Mr.. j. A.
Montgomery at the other end of the
line, put the machinery in motion
which led to the capture of Reese, and
common justice demands that they
should not be overlooked when the re-
wards offered are dissr buted."

ers were in blossom. It was delight
full spring weather aud crops looked as
promising as ever they did look. On
the 18th Of AEriI, however, sudden
and remarkable change took place in
weather conditions. The mercury
tunbled over itself in its bury to reach
the.low figures. Clouds having gathered
it began to snow aud for time the
fakes fell thick ard fast until the earth
was covered to depth Of q isches.
It was besu:iful picture to look upon
say the "old" people. Roses peeped
out from their covering Of crystal white,
and the green Of the trees made a
charming background. However, the
snow disappeared in a very short time.
