Caught in Gale on the Atlantic
Coast Last
Week.
LOUISVILLE GIRLS ARE HURT

Mr.. II. II. Lindsey, manager of the
Sutherland Medicine company, has
just returned from trip of the At
lantic coast, in which he with = ship
load of passengers had close call in \
terrific hurricane aboard the Old
Dominion Steaper Princess Anne.
between New York aud Norfolk. The
steamer left New York about g O'Clock
last Tuesday night The storm came
mp shortly after midnight. II lasted
until s O'Clock in the morning The
wind blew n perfect gale. and huge
waves mounted over the upper deck OF
the steamer. The members OF the crew
of the steamer Princess Anne gave mp
hope and quit work, and officers were
forced TO compel them TO resume their
duties at the point Of a pistol. To
make matters worse, some Of the pas
sengers became panic stricken. One
woman became hysterioal and scream-
ed murder and fire until it became
necessary to forcibly lock her up in q
state room.
Two Louisville girls, Misses Eliza.
beth and Mamie Morgan. were aboard
the steamer, and Miss Mamie Morgan
brought home with her a painful scalp
wound and n discolored eye and cheek
as result of being thrown against the
door key Of Der state room. She was
standing on the floor OF the state room
when the ship gave . sudden lurch.
and she WAS thrown violently. Miss
Morgan was rendered unconscious,
and remained 80 for several hours. ,
She suffered more from the nervous
shock than the bruises she sustained.
Mr.. Lindsey, with other passengers,
thought they would never reach the
shore alive, but the good " ork Of the
officers and the crew saved the ship.

NEW HOME FOR BOERS.
A Colony to Be Established In
Old Mexico.

Negotiations have been closed for
the purchase in old Mexico, 100 miles
from the Texas border, of 100000
acres, which are to be used in provid-
ing homes for 300 Boer families to be
brought from South Africa by Jan. 1,
says the st. Louis Republic. The land
lies in the state of Tamaulipas, and
was selected from a tract Of 100000
acres, on the balance of which the
former citizens of the Transvaal re-
public have an option.
Announcement of the close of the
negotiations was made the other night
by Captain w. S. O'Donnell, who
fought under General Joubert in the
war in Africa and who has just re-
turned from old Mexico in company
with General G. D. Joubert a nephew
of the noted Boer fighter.
"The climate of old Mexico is sim
liar to that of South Africa" said Cap
tain O'Dounell "and it is believed
that the Boer people will find it agree
able. There are about 100000 Beers
in South Africa. and many of them are
leaving the country. | believe that
thousands Of them will eventually set
tie in old Mexico.
"The land which we have purchased
was owned by Senator Butler of South
Carolina and Senator Pettigrew of
North Dakota. The price agreed upon
is $3.50 per acre. and we will have
twelve years in which to pay it. The
Mexican government has agreed to ex-
empt the Beers from taxation for the
next fifteen years"
Captain O'Donnell says the Beers in
the Transvaal are extremely poor. The
gold mines, he says. are now owned
by an immense syndicate and only a
few of them are in operation.

SMOKE WILL CAUSE A BIG LAW
Copper Mines the Trees and All Kinds
Vegetation Killed No Remedy Except Law Suit

Yeates, J. H. Witzell and w. A. Can
der, will make a report of their find
ings to Governor Terrell on October
10, containing their recommendations
in the matter.
II is stated that for five miles the
country is almost bare, trees OF all
sorts have been killed and that no sign
OF any vegetation except a small patch
of hurmuda grass exists anywhere.
There has been complaint from the
property owners for many years about
the conditions that existed, but there
was no remedy or recourse other than
a damage suit.
The last legislature took the matter
up and passed a bill authorizing the
appointment of commission for the
purpose of Investigating the matter
and making report to the governor,
who was to transmit the findings OF
the committee to the next session OF
the general assembly.

Property owners of Forsyth county
NAV enter suit against the Ducktown
Copper Mines for damage to property
which has resulted from the smoke OF
the furnaces, says the Atlanta Jour
nal. The smoke commission appointed
by Governor Terrell under an act by
the legislature has made thorough
investigation of the conditions there,
and has arrived at the conclusion, it is
said, that the only remedy is a suit for
damages.
There is no hope, it is understood,
of stopping the devastation of the for
age and vegetation by the smoke with
out shutting down the furnaces, and
this of course would be unconstitution-
al or would stop the output of an enor-
nous amount of copper,

TO SMASH In WALL STREET
MANY STOCKS ARE W0BBLiNG AND
VICTIMS ABE NUMEROUS.
The Financial HighbinderS and FreebOOt-
ers Are Very Busy lust Now. Catch
Suckers Coming and Going.
Especial Correspondence of The News }

Especial Correspondence of The News
WASHINGTON, D. c., October A.
Some of the things that are being
discussed here by the men who come
to the national capitol on business be-
tore the departments and for other
purposes are the conditions that now
exist in the world of stock speculation.
| Things have gone to cussed smash
over in Wall street in any number Of
stocks, and yet the men who are ma
nipulating the game that cate hes suck
ers are still looked upon as the ICON
sentative business element" of the
country, as the creme de la creme of
espectabilitY and business sagacity.
The real truth is that if the people of
this country had sense enough to sit
down and think consecutivelY for ten
minutes they would know that this So
called conservative business ele-
ment" is thoroughly discredited
class of high binders, free-booters and
commercial Bashi Bazouks; that they
are robbiug the people of the country
every day and laughing at them. Take
the United States Steel Corporation.
for instance, and see what has hap.
pened. The officials of that gigantic
trust seem actually to be proud of the
number of victims they have fieeced
in the past year. They continue to
give out Boosting statements of the
rapidly increasing number of it's stock
holders, though it is apparent to the
most casual observer that every man
who in vested in these stocks since
they were placed on the market has
lost money. The total shrinkage is
more than 30 points on both common
and preferred stocks. 1t takes $780,.
100000 to measure the loss of the vic
tins of this trust, and still the spider
continues to sit in his little parlor and
lure his victims and still they come
and have the lifeblood sucked out of
them. A statement was given out the
other day that the number of holders
of this stock had increased oyer 5000
in the past three months. During this
increase of over 5000 in the number
of holders of common stock in this
corporation it sunk from 30 to 20
share, and two days more it had gone
down to Is. Thus, some who bought
three mouths ago have already lost
One-third of their investment.
These highway robbers are playing a
game like the niggers' coon trap-it
catches EN- comm and goin'. They
rob the purchasers of their product in
this country where they charge more
than they do foreigners, because the
tariff wall gives them the privilege,
and they rob the buyers of their stock
by manipulation on Wall street.
Yet this is the delectable gang of
unconscionable scoundreis who are
every day held up to US as the para
CONS of business integrity and to
whom we must bow in all our national
elections; that we must select candi-
dates who are acceptable to this gang
of thieves. If the democracy does SO
il deserves. defeat.

CAN'T SELL ALCOHOL.
Townsville Attempts to Re-
strain Drinking Fiery Spirits.

A law has been passed by the coun'
Gil of Thomasville regulating the sale
of alcohol. BY the terms of the new
law alcohol can be sold in Thomasville
for medical purposes only on physl-
clans certificate, and no prescription
can be reflled, new prescription De-
ing necessary for each sale. All sales
must be recorded in book kept tor
that purpose.
For art, scientific or mechanical pur-
poses sales can be made only to such
persons as will record their names,
amount desired and intended purpose
The city marshal is required to IN
spect the alcohol book at least once a
month and report to the council.
The ordinance was passed at the last
regular meeting of the council and Is
now a law. The occasion was that
many in that section, both white and
colored, had acquired the habit OF
drinking pure alcohol, familiarity call
ed A. K. in the place of whiskey and
beer. Thomas county being dry they
could not obtain other spirits except
with considerable difficulty.
