RACE RIOT.

Full particulars of race riot that was
followed by lynching in Aiken county,
S. c., Saturday night, have been re-
ceived. More trouble was expected, but
in view of the large number Of the whites
in that section the negroes are unlikely
to make an open assault.
The negroes got the whites at dis
advantage Saturday night and used it.
1t was payday and crowd of both
races had gone from South Carolina
towns to Augusta where there is no dis
pensary law. At night the returning
train-load was composed Of negroes
and white factory hands, mostly from
Langley. Most of the negroes were
drunk, and so were numbers OF the
whites. The row was believed to have
been started by white man attempting
to interfere in fight between negroes.
He was attacked and other whites went
to his assistance. Then pistols and
knives flashed and for three or four min
utes the passenger coach in which seven
ty-ive people were c.owded was a strug-
Cling mass of infuriated, screaming.
cursing, shooting and stabbing men.
The whites were unprepared for a
fight. They had nothing but pocket
knives, while the negroes were provided
with pistols. The train dashed into
Langley station and the crew called for
assistance. Only two were captured,
Ike Collins and Wyatt Holmes were al
most hacked to pieces. Collins, the sur
geons said, could not possibly live. The
men were carried to the Jail. The town
authorities, fearing lynching, telegraph
ed to Sheriff Alderman, at Aiken, for
help. The sheriff started for Langley
and to divert the mob, telegraphed that
they had the wrong men, that the ring
leader had been captured at Aiken. Al
derman reached Langley late at night
and found the crowd assembled for the
lynching. They would take no advice,
but charged on the frail Jail building,
broke in the doors, dragged out the
wounded men, one nearly, dead, and
filed their bodies with lead. The
negroes were the targets for hundreds Of
bullets.

banker, was made a prisoner by the
Greek brigands, says that the bandits
are remarkably pious, and would not
give the prisoners food if they declined
to audibly say grace before meals. He
declared these outlaws have a small Ii
brary containing the most edifying
works. They are, he says, apparently
on the very best terms with the monks

the ransoms of 800, 600 each were paid,
the monks supplying the scales in which
the coin was weighed.

What the People Say.

Scarcely a day but what we hear some one
say $50 and so told us what nice store you
had, and really we find it a pleasure to deal
here. Everything so free and easy, goods so
nicely displayed, such a variety Of all kinds,
no matter how good, no matter how cheap, and
this is just what we need in Alexandria-an
up-t0-date, wide awake store" When we

Of such conversation in the houses of
this city we know very well that our efforts to
please are not in vain We want every pa
tron of this store to come again and if any
thing occurs which is in the least unpleasant
please report it and we will be happy to
make amends We feel dependent upon

must be conducted upon the most liberal
principles of justice and fair dealing, and as
we have said before every statement we make
is a sacred pledge to the public, and whatever
you get here, must be reasonably satisfactory
or we buy it back for what you paid. We
propose to keep up the high standard of this

Ibt Montpelier Journal last night
pltl,Gned the following;
~ novel kind OF DO! cctt is ttempt-
ed N this city. Montpelier las had
its wn labor troubles but naver be-
fore has it been directly affected by
those in other states.
It Is unique situation. William
Miller is the general agent here for
"lno beer," which is made oy the
clFolk brewing Company of Boston.
4 strike is on at the breweries in Bos-
tcn and the Suffolk is in the fight.
Viking delegates Of the Federation
Of Labor appear to have done some
sleuth work in Boston, watching the
freight shipm ents OF the ''scab" beers
Que Of these delegates discovered tina,
William was handling this beer. The
delegate came here and after confer
rins with the head Of the local branch
Of the Federation, aCommitte of one
from each trades union in the city
was selected to accompany the dele
gate on his visitation to Mr.. Miller.
According to the report of one OF
the committee, Mr.. Miller received
the committee With the CLASSY
stare He told the visitors he SYM
pathi2ed with the strikers but did
not see how his handling the "Uno
beer" up here in Vermont damaged
them any more than to burn coa
which might be shipped tere VIII lie
the strike IS on among the miners.
The committee insisted that Mr..
Miller should use some other beer
than "Uno" hut he explained that
this orand was the only "false alarm"
beer which had been tested in the
courts of Vermont and allowed to be
all right; so that he did not care to
take chances on untried bre wings. He
also explained that it had cost him
large money to establi h the legality
Of 'Uno beer"'in this section, but
If the Federation would put up for
felt Of $1,000 he would handle the beer
which it should name.
The delegate declined the proposi-
ton and left the city for st. Johns
bury.
Those 10 this city and Barre, who
have SOLD 'Ufno beer" have cut it OF
their visiting list, it is said, and that
union 3aborer was told il he were
caught drinking "Uno" he would be
liaue to fine OF S5, and If he did not
pay thG tine he would be suspended.
1t Is also said that cards have been
sent for distribution among the union

CASE
WITH Jury

Manchester, June 20 The defense
in tl:.2& poison case OF State VS. Joseph
Mears, closed their testim ony yester.
day afternoon by strong evidence
which tended to question IN some de-
gree the Identification Of the bottle in
question, which c,ntained the poison
ed whiskey, which up to this time had
appeared to have been we'll established
by the state.
States Attorney Shakshober outlin-
ed the points claimed by the state In
clear and concise manner and held the
attention of the jury until his argu-
rnents were closed. He was followed
by +. c. Archibald OF Manchester, at
torney for the defense, who made a
strong argument for his client and
brought out the points claimed by the
defense In such manner as to change
the opinions Of many persons who
were present in regard to the guilt Of
OF the defendant.
The closing argument Cor the state
was given by the Hon. James X Bat.
chelder Of Arlington who is reco. nized
as one Of the leading criminal lawyers
Of the state and is assisting States
Attorney Shakshober in the prosecu-
tion. The case will probably be given
TO the jury this noon after the charge
Of Judge Tyler which will follow Mr..
Batchelder's argument. The state
claim to be sure OF conviction while
the defense seems to be more than
hopeful for at least disagreement of
the jury.
