Lamar Rally a Big Success.


Last Saturday is day long TO be re-
member d in Madison Not since the
gala week OF last year have the streets
Of the town been 80 crowded with push
ing, good natured humanity as on that
day when the people from all sections of
the county gathered here to DO honor to
Judge W, B. Lamar, candidate for Con
gress, and to participatein the big bar
becue which had been prepared for their
entertainment.
Wagons, buggies, carriages and carts
began TO arrive early in the morning,
each vehicle being filled to its carrying
capacity with men women and children,
Many came afoot and by ten o'clock the
streets were 80 crowded that navigation
was difficult. About half past eleven
the crowd drifted 20 the public square
where the speaking was 10 take place.
Oh the stand here erected Judge Lamar
soon appeared. Charles e. Davis in
troduced thespeaker and he was received
with loud and prolonged cheers Judge
Lamar arose from a sick bed to Gil his
appointment His body was racked
with pain and because OF his physical
weakness he was compelled TO ask tho
indulgence Of his hearers while he deliv-
cred his speech sitting. For about one
hoar and half he spoke TO the crowd,
discussing national issues and matters
incident to the campaign in the State.
His speech, delivered as it was under
severe physical strain, was a convincing
one, and the manner in which the
crowd applauded and listened was EVIL
dence that what he had TO say was
weighty. We are sorry that we cannot
report 1t in full, but it was impossible
for us to get near enough 10 hear what
the speaker had to say.
The barbecue was served on long
tables built In the form Of square I'M
der the oak trees in front Of Capt.
Diars residence. After the speaking
the gong was sounded and the crowd
surged up TO the tables. The barbecue
which was preparedunder the direction
Of Messrs. ~ M. Taylor, W. B. Dayis
and r, +, Dickinson, was FIRST class in
every particular. Five beeyes, a num-
her Of sheep and kids and hoge, pickles,
bread, biscuit aud cornbread composed
the bin Of fare and there was plenty for
all. But when the crowd had satisfied
the inner man there was very little left.
Notwithstanding the great crowd the
order Of the uay was perfect There
was very little drinking and no rowdy-
ism. BY nightthe great majority Of the
people had dispersed to their homes and
quiet once more settled down over the
town.
After Judge Lamar had finished his
speech Hon. T. j. Mccall, Of Jasper,
candidate for Comptroller, was intro
duced and made a speech Of about
twenty minutes. Mr.. Mccall was we'll

votes by his utterances.

accounts be has head and from the
number Of runs piled up the game must
have been one Of exceeding interest to

day Of modern baseball when one or
two runs for each team Is something TO
be prouaof Such a score as that
piled up last Thursday is out Of the
ordinary, to say the least, and therefore
interesting. Nine innings were played
during which the Madison boys scored
twenty-five runs and the Greengille
boys forty-two runs We imagine both
teams we're pretty well tired out when
the game was ended, IL the tongues Of
the players we're not hanging out of
their respective mouths il certainly was
not the fault Of either side, for so great

to produce such an effect. Hardy

were 90 more mines in operation in the
anthracite region, and the output is
close to 100, 600 tons, as near as can be
estimated. From reports received the
total output the first day did not ex-
coed $4,000 tons. When in full opera
tion the mines employ in every capacity
about 145, 900 men and boys. OF this
number it is estimated that $4,000 were
at work. A more amicable feeling pre-
vailed between employer and employe.
The excitement over the commencement
of work wore off somewhat and there
was moro work and less talk. The non
union men, despite what may be said
to the contrary, are slowly being dis
placed in many of the mines, and the

Topeka, Oct 23.-The railroads are
not furnishing transportation for voters
this year. The roads have had some
unpleasant experiences in past years
in supplying tickets to bring voters
hone. Two years ago one OF the com
panies gave u Kansan transportation
from st. Louis to his Kansas home and
return so that he could vote. The
voter came home and voted and then
went to Kansas City where he remained
until his ticket had expired. lie then
got on train and was put off. He
came back to Kansas and sued the COM
pany for $4,000 damages. Hundreds
OF voters tickets always turn up in
scalpers' offices, which is another thing
that caused the roads to cut off trans
portation of that character.

New Railroad Through Kansas.

Omaha, Oct. 27.-What are said to be
plans for the extension of the Chicago
Great Western railroad from Omaha
southwest through Nebraska and Kan
sas to the Panhandle of Texas, are
berg worked out by Kansas City pro-
moters. Omaha engineers, who own
surveys made some years ago for the
railroad through those sections, have
been approached with propositions to
sell their notes to the Missouri men,
who state they will push the road 20
completion 1t is claimed the negotia-
tions are being carried in the interest
OF the Great Western, which will be
completed into Omaha from Chicago
within sixty days. The road will par
allel Stillwell's Kansas City, Mexico e.
Orient, but will be 200 miles from that
road at all points. 1t will go in a
straight line to Garden City, Kan, and

DANE TREATY REJECTED.
Though Popular Sentiment is Surely
Favorable.

Washington, Oct. 25.-Thc safe de-
partment is advised of the action of the
Danish landsthing in rejecting the
treaty of ccssion. Assuming that action
is final for the present session, the
officials here are disposed to view tie
situation philosophically resting in the
belief that it will only be short time
before Denmark will tire of making
good deficit in the revenue of the
islands and let us have them.
Copenhagen. The predominant sen.
timent throughout Denmark is un.
doubtedly favorable and the rejection
of the treaty is attributed chiefly to a
political effort to embarrass the gov

tion of the ministry The question OF

dead for any length of time.

circular says: Notwithstanding the
fact that during the strike no coal was

been professionally advanced to the

in the value of silver has cost the insular
