Death OF Lord Salisbury.

London, August 22.-Lord Salisbury
died at Hatfield at 9.05 p. m. The end
of the distinguished statesman was q
peaceful one, without the slightest
evidence of pain. When death became
imminent, the attending physician sum
moned the waiting members of the
family, who gathered at the bedside and
took farewell of the dying man, who,
however, was unconscious of their
presence. Within few minutes after
the death brief announcement was
handed to the newspaper men, and
simultaneously the death knell from the
tower of the church, of which the Rev.
Lord William Cecil, nephew of Lord
Salisbury, is pastor, told the people of
the little village of Hatfield that the
long struggle was over.

The J. n. Tillman Trial.

Lexington, August 22.-Abouta month
hence it is expected that this little town
will be entertaining the largest number
of visitors ever known in it's history
The tria' of Jas. III. Tillman for the
murder of N. G. Gonzales in Columbia
is set for that time, and it is generally
believed, will be delayed no longer.
Almost 500 witnesses have been sum-
moned to appear in this case by the
opposing sides.
All available space in the hotels has
been engaged weeks since by interested
parties, and how tho immense number
of spectators, sure to he on hand, will be
accommodated, is an interesting problem.
The last census gave the town something
over 900 inhabitants. 1t is thought that
at least 5000 will be here during the
trial
Meantime the prisoner occupies his
cell in the Lexington county Jail.
Sheriff Caughman has made him as
comfortable as possible, putting him on
the shady side of the building on the
first floor near the sheriff's own quarters
and occasionally permitting him to
exercise himself by walking up and
down the corridor. AS rule the sheriff
does not lock the cell from the outside,
but leaves the lock for Tillman to turn
if he so desires.
Three times day Mr. Marks, who
keeps a restaurant just behind the Jail,
can be seen bringing the prisoner his
meals. Tillman states that he finds his
quarters here pleasanter than those in
the Richland Jail, where he was impris-
oned during some warm days of May
and June.
Many visitors attracted by curiosity or
other motives go to see the noted prisoner.
Some time since his wife and little
daughter spent several days in Lexington
with relatives and made frequent visits
to the Jail. Others of his kinsfolk have
been here from time to time. Tillrnans
little nephew, handsome boy of seven
or eight summers, is staying in the Jail
to wait upon his uncle and is said to be
general favorite with the prisoners.
Speculation as to the verdict in the
case is almost useless. AS stated above,
Mrs. Jas. II. Tllman has relatives in
town and also in the county and people
feel much real sympathy for her. 1t is
doubtful if the same feeling exists for
her in her husbands case The belief
of almost all those who have read the
newspapers and who care to express
themselves is, that the act was genuine
murder and should be punished. At the
same time it should be remembered that
Senator Tillman has always had large
following in the county, whatever his
nephew's following was, and this fact is
almost sure to influence some jurymen.
So far sentiment does not seem to
have crystalized, but it will be sur
prise if Tillman is either acquitted or
sentenced to be hanged as result of this
trial. Not few look for mstrial and
then another application for bail.
