Threats of the Mob
Troops Ordered Out.

Columbus, O., March S.-Upon urgent representations from Mayor Bowlus from Springfield that a race war is imminent as a result of the lynching of the negro Dixon, Governor Herrick tonight ordered eight companies of State militia to that city to preserve order.
 Adjutant General Critchfleld at once ar- ranged for the mobilization of the troops. Besides the two companies at Springfield companies at Urbana, Dayton, Akron. Miamisburg and Pique were called out.
 Governor Herricks first order to Mayor Bowlus was to issue a proclamation or dering the closing of all saloons Next he ordered the colored members of com pany A. Sth battalion to rest on their arms in the armory and see that none of the guns were stolen.
 Senator Types talked to Springfield shortly before g o'clock and was advised that the outlook was most menacing The colored people were remaining for the most part in their district and were wrought up to a state of frenzy
 The trouble. according to Hypess in formants. was due largely to threat made during the day by white men, that they intended to clean out the coloret district. On the other hand the coloret people enraged. at the public exhibition of the body of Dixon. today threatened reprisals
 At slo o'clock telephone messages an nounced that white men armed ant threatening vengeance were parading tn, streets in great numbers and that tn, excitement was momentarily increasing The police, limited in numbers at best were being wholly ignored, and all at tempts to curb the rising spirit of tn, people was futile. It was believed b, Mayor Bowlus that the arrival of severa outside companies would have much t. do with quietlng the demonstration. Tn local companies. he feared. would not re ceive the consideration that visiting com panies would.

 Among the places in the west Levee district are a number that are resorts for the colored people and in one of which Dixon shot Collis.
 The arrivals of the out of town mlli- tary alone can save these "joints," and a train load of troops from several towns between here and Cincinnati are momen- tarily expected. Apparent the negroes all over the city are becoming intimidated and their boasts made in the earlier part of the evening are no longer heard.
 Mayor Bowlus is in constant commu- nication with Governor Herrick. The latter realizes fully the urgent need in which the city stands of help.

Militia Reach the Town.

nAAAASAN GSC4S1 JGC 4OWAs
 Springfield. March 9.-The company o militia from Xenia arrived at 1:SO a. m and were immediately sent toward thC Levee by a circuitous route. The com panies of local militia are guarding tho armory where ammunition is stored They are commanded by Major Kirkpat. rick. The feeling of unrest Is accentuat- ed by the uncertainty of what the mob is going to do or where the trouble may begin next. Company M of the 4th regi- ment of Xenia and Company D, of the Srd regiment of Urbana are now picketed along the Big Four railroad tracks fac- ing the burning district along East Wash ington Street.
 At 12:45 o'clock Companies G and K of Dayton and Company K of Miamiasburg arrived, and they were stationed at vari- ous points in the Esplanade, Fountain Avenue and High Street, to prevent in- gress of either whites or negroes, and so far as their numbers will permit. will forestall any efforts to burn the immedi- ate business district. The outlying dis tricts among the factories and dwelling houses are unprotected and ten times the number of troops now on hand would be entirely insufficient to prevent incen diarism.
 The fire in East Washington Street has | burned out exactly the district the mon said should go. but there is now no dan ger of 1t spreading further either east or west.
 At 2:3O o'clock the fire had burned itself out and both mob and spectators have for the most part dispersed. Quiet pre- walls throughout the city and the mob is good natured and orderly, ev'"1ntly well satisfied with it's nights work. It is hardly probable that an attempt will be made by the whites to burn the west Washington Street resorts as this sec tion is closely guarded by Dayton and Miamisburg troops.
 Probably twenty small buildings were destroyed by fire.

Emergency Medicine.

1t is a great convenience TO have
at hand reliable remedies for use in
cases of accident and for slight in
juries and ailments. A good lini-
ment and one that is fast becoming
favorite if not a household necessi-
ty is Chamberlain Pain Balm. By
applying it promptly to a cut, bruise
or burn it allays the pain and
causes the injury to heal in about
one-third the time usually required,
and as it is an antiseptic it prevents
any danger of blood poisoning. When
Pain Balm is kept at hand sprain
may be treated before inflammation
sets in, which insures quick recov-
cry. For sale by all druggists.
