said about my dogs not being
social equality dogs
"Well, that's a fact, isn't it?"
Il guess it is" replied Col.
Bobo.
:The fact is" he continued,
"that the committee Of arrange
ments had never invited me to
go on the bear hunt and had
never opened their mouths to me
on the subject, until after the
hunt began, and then Mr.. Fish
telegraphed me to come over and
bring a few of my best dogs.
/ was in the field with a party of
friends from Champaign, ILL.,. !,
and what was to do? l couldn't
go off and leave my friends and
1 wouldn't have gone anyhow.
The hunt was put in charge Of a
negro captain of the hunt and
the roads were all guarded by
negroes, and / don't understand
what those white men and sou
therners meant by going along
under such conditions. No. sir,
| didn't snub the president. l
just didn't GO on the hunt.
"They had the roads guarded
by negroes, and when Mr..
Wright. of Vicksburg, went over
that way a couple of them stop
ped him in the road with rifles.
Mr.. Wright told the negroes that
they had no right to stop him on
the public roads and they re-
piled that they had the United
States behind them"
What was the trouble with
the hunt at Smedes?'
1.-THE trouble was that they did
not have any bear dogs. You
can't hunt bear without bear
dogs. and 1 don't see any reports
of their getting any bear at
Smedes. 1t was reported that
they caught one bear and tied
him, but any one who ever
hunted bear knows that that is
lie. By the time a man got
through tying 230-pouud bear
there wouldn't be much left of
the man," and the noted bear
hunter laughed quietly over the
idea of tying a bear. II was out
the same week, about fifteen
miles from my place, and we got
four bear and ten deer during the
hunt, but we had dogs.
1.-THE truth of the business is
that the News expressed the
sentiments of nineteenths of the
people of Mississippi in what it
said about the president. In put
ting those negroes in charge of
the hunt and posting them for
guards, it looks like they were
trying to give the president a
touch of Rocker RIGHT .,

DEATH WAS ACCIDENTAL
Coroners' Inquest in the Case of
Frank Dictis, Killed in the
Emanuel Stone Quarry.

Coroner J. F. Saltry conducted an
inquest in the court house last night in
the case of Frank Dictis, who was
killed last Friday by an explosion in the
quarry of the Emanuel Stone company
of South Scranton.
The evidence showed that about ten
days before, five holes were drilled and
charged in that part of the quarry
where Fridays explosion occurred. The
charges were fired and after the eXplo-
sion the holes were examined by Till
man Masher, the foreman, and Michael
Arcuri, the chargeman. Both swore
last night that they believed then,
from their examination, that all of the
charges had been exploded.
Friday Dictis was sitting down hold
ing a wedge, used in splitting stone
and Santo iona was using a sledge
on it, when charge, which had evil
IDENTIFY survived the explosion Of ten
days before. was dischared, killing
Dictis and injurng six other workmen

The jury which was made up Of
Joseph Murphy, John Casey, John H.

to the effect that death was due to the
accidental discharge of dynamite and
black powder.
Peter Manley, who was injured by
the explosion, is still in precarious
condition at the hospital, with slight
chances for recovery.

ENTERPRISE THAT

Newspapers Faxed Labor Day Pro-
gramme and Printed It as Off,
cial, Marshal Frayne Says.

The committee of the Central Labor
union, in charge of the arrangements
for the Labor Day demonstration, met
last night at their headquarters and
decided to invite to participation in the
days celebration all locals of the
United Mine Workers of America not
affiliated with the Central Labor union.
The locals which are affiliated have, Of
course, been already invited.
Grand Marshal Hugh Frayne was
considerably wroth over the fact that
the Times and Republican printed
what purported to be the formation of
the Labor Day parade. Said he last
night:
1.-The formation printed was unoffi-
cial and wholly incorrect. We have not

made up before the next meeting,
Monday night"
A letter of acceptance was received
from the executive board of District

upon later. and by the painters, who
challenge any of the trades locals to
a game of base ball.

IS BACK FROM NEW YORK.
City Solicitor Watson Went There
About the Bonds.

City Solicitor George M. Watson was
back at his Office in the city hall yes
terday, after brief trip Monday to
New York, where he consulted Judge
John f. Dillon, regarding the validity
of the s2S5,OOO issue Of bonds which
Hayes & Sons, of Cleveland, have re-
fused to accept.
Judge Dillon is Investigating the
matter. not at the solicitation of the
city officials, as has been published,
but in the capacity of consulting at
torney, for a bond house which is con-
templating the purchase of the bonds.
He will shortly render an opinion on
the matter, copies of which will be re-
ceived by the municipal authorities,
and by the bond house.
If his opinion is favorable and his
clients accept the bonds, this will COM
pletely establish their validity. AS
Solicitor Watson remarked yesterday:
"If the bonds are sold, they're good"
This would justify the city in retain
ing as forfeit, the $4,000 check, deposit
ed by Hayes & Sons, when they made
their original offer for the bonds.
City Solicitor Watson stated yester-
day that Judge Dillon appeared to
himself expressed, on practically every
point. Judge Dillon is not quite sure,
however, that the grouping of two is
sues of bonds into one was a strictly
legal action,
This is practically the only tangle in
this Gordian knot which is to be yet
loosened, and Judge Dillon is now care
fully reviewing mass of information
furnished him on the matter, and his
opinion is soon expected.
On Friday, August 20. Messrs. Silas

The New Doctrine of Hell.

What the utter failure of the
soul to find God will mean is not clear
ly revealed in scripture. The teach
ings of Paul and John, following Jew
ish lines, do not postulate anything but
Punishment untiI the "second death. I"
Sin is death. Unrighteousness is its
own agony. Guilt is separation from
Our Father. There is no life or peace
save in love, holiness or purity, with
out which no man can see the Lord.
More we cannot say. More need not
be said. More is. as a matter of fact.
not now preached from any Protestant
pulpit. liberal or conservative. save the
most ignorant, where the material hell
still holds sway.
The life on the Bowery is hell. The
greed of Wall street is hell. The sus-
picions and criticisms of Christian
brethren one of another are hell. We
have hell in our hearts and only Gods
love can cast out hell. That should be
an eternal disputant of Gods sovereign
redemption; that tn. Cross of Christ
should not save the uitermost, seems
hardly possible; yet we have no other
message than to proclaim that unless
men take the Father at His word they
must remain in the far country and
feed the swine, and that every man
goes to his own place. The Evangelist.
