Two daughters were picking cotton near

cotton not very far away. Mr.. Hughes

to visit sick neighbor. Knowing that
the girls were alone, the negro secreted
himself in the cotton house and attacked
the youngest girl when she came to empty
her cotton sack. She screamed and her
sister came running to her rescue, when
the negro desisted without accomplishing g

the girls told the story, and soon after

McKeesport, Pa, Oct 2o.-James
L. Curley, aged 21, a draughtsman
at the East Pittsburg works of the
Westinghouse Electric company, at
a late hour last night gave up his life
to save his sweetheart.
Curley and a companion, named
Myers, were escorting Misses Wal
ters and Kesler to their homes, and
while crossing the Baltimore and
Ohio track at Eleventh street, a
switch engine suddenly bore down
upon them. Curley gave the alarm
in time for Mr.. Meyers and Miss
Kesler to reach safety, but ne and
Miss Walters were a step or two
behind the first couple and Curley
seized Miss Walters and threw her
bodily clear of the track. Before he
could recover his balance the engine
cut him to pieces.

WAR NEWS.
No Skirmishes on Tuesday and Wed
nesday-Details Of Affairs.

St. Petersburg, October 2o-Lieu-
tenant General Sakharof reports
that no skirmishes are reported as
having taken place yesterday.
Hi gives an account of disaster
to one Cossack detachment on Oc-
tober 19
He gives the following account OF
the disaster:
"On the eighteenth when our
mounted patrols were reconnoiter-
ing near Sandipou and Kai Zan Tai,
Japanese outposts were encountered.
The garrisons of the outposts hur-
riedly retired and our forces pursued.
They were stopped by infantry with
machine guns One detachment OF
horsemen came directly under the ma
chine gun fire within distance of two
hundred PAGES with the result that
all the horses and men were killed
and wounded. Col. Torgenof
brought back on his own horse one
sole survivor of the encounter"
1t will be noticed that General
Sakharof makes no mention of the
disaster to two Japanese divisions
reported in the official dispatches. 1t
seems that during a recent fight five
japanese officers and forty-hve men
were captured by the Russians in a
Chinese house. All the Japanese
officers committed suicide and forty
Of the men did likewise. The re-
naming five surrendered. Probably
this minor disaster is the basis of the
sensational runor which had it that
two divisions suffered reverses and
that twelve thousand men were taken
prisoners
General Kuropatkin, according to
Russian reports, is holding the jap
anese firmly in his center and right
wing. He has recrossed the Shakhe
river and his center has slightly ad-
vanced, after furious fighting. His
left, however, is in jeopardy. A dis
patch from Mukden says the Rus
slams in Tuesdays fighting captured
IS guns.

The Gentry Shows.

Gentry Bros. Famous shows, after
season of thirty weeks in the big
cities of the country, including twelve
weeks in Chicago, ten in New York
city, and three in Philadelphia, are
coming this way. The date of their
appearance here is November 1st on
which day two exhibitions will be
given. The Gentry Bros. have been
successful showmen for over sixteen
years, and up until this season had
four separate and distinct trained ami
NAL exhibitions on tour. At the
commencement of this season it was
decided to consolidate two of these
wonderful exhibitions for the purpose
of playing extended engagements in
the metropolitan cities exclusively.
The shows closed their city engage
ment in Washington, D. c., in Sep
tember, and will spend the fall
months in the south. In all their
entirety, without a single feature
missing, the "Big City" show will
exhibit here. This means better
and bigger show and longer one,
The performance runs for over two
hours, and according to all the daily
papers of Chicago, New York and
Philadelphia, it is the most wonder
full exhibition ever presented beneath
canvas. The New York Jour-
nal says that it is "a show which the
schools should dismiss for" claiming
editorially that child can learn more
during an afternoon at the circus
than he can in a month pouring over
school books An added feature with
the Gentry shows this year is the ap-
pearance of the famous Yoshimate
family of Royal Imperial Japanese
Acrobats, the premier acrobats and
tumblers of the flowery kingdom.
Another feature is the *'all new" and
magnificent street parade, which
leaves the show grounds at 1890
sharp.
All arrangements have been made
for the appearance of these famous
shows here. The date, which is
given above, will positively be filed,
and rain or shine, two performances
will be given. Be on hand for the
magnificent street parade, featured
as "mile of gold and glitter" which
leaves the show grounds at 1890
"show day."

Florida Storms.
B. w. C..

Miami, Fla, October 2o.-After
blowing a>gale Friday, Saturday and
Sunday the storm predicted for south
Florida broke over this place Sunday
about nightfall. In few hours
Miami and most of the towns on
the east coast of Florida were cut
off from communication from the
outside world Telegraph wires
were blown down and the railroad
tracks were obstructed and not until
yesterday was communication restor-
ed
The wind attained maximum We
locity of IS miles per hour here. The
chief damage on land was done by
the rain. A few roofs were damag-
ed and window panes blown in so
that the buildings were damaged by
rain.
In the surrounding country the
fruit and vegetable crops were dam
aged to a considerable extent.
The report from Lemon City is
that the storm prevailed there with
the same severity as here and while
several houses were slightly injured
no serious damage resulted. Sew
eral craft along the bay front were
capsized and swamped.

United States Accused of Bad Faith
In Dealings On Isthmus.

Washington, October 2o.-Misre-

the United States and Panama, and
bad faith in putting the terms of the
treaty into execution, are the princi-
pal accusations Of the little isthmean
republic against America
The difference between the Panama
government and General Davis, gov
ernor of the canal zone, arising out
of undue exercise of authority by the
latter, are what have caused the pres
ent situation which the president re-
CARDS as serious enough to necessi-
tate the personal investigation Of

Created under the auspices of the

against her sponsor that she has

A Boy Essayist.

The boy was nearing the time of
his graduation from the high school
he was favorite in the school, says
the Lewiston Journal, but he had
taken higher rank on the baseball and
football fields than he had in the
classroom, and this was when he be-
gan to be sorry. The "exercises" OF
graduation day loomed large before
him. He was down for an essay. It
looked more formidable than any OBJ
stacle he had ever encountered on
the athletic field, and the nearer the
day came the larger it looked.
There was Harvard man staying
in the village at the time, and to him,
finally, the young athlete went and
besought his help in the writing OF
the essay. The university man was
amused, but he concealed his emo
tions.
"We11," he said, "a graduation es-
say is fussy piece of work. have
not done my writing lately, and
hardly feel like tackling such job y
The boys face fell.
"Still," the Harvard man added, Il
don't know-perhaps-I suppose you
have picked out the subject you want
to write about?"
"Yes," answered the young athlete,

GUILTY OF MANSLAUGHTER.
Verdict In Saluda Case Of State
Against Millers And Mccormick.

Saluda, October 1o-'We find
Sion Miller and Russell Mccormick
guilty of mans1aughter, and Joseph
Miller guilty Of carrying an unlaw-
full weapon" Such was the verdict
of the jury rendered at nine o'clock
this morning in the case of the state
against the Miller boys and McCor-
mick, charged with the killing of the
Truesdale negro, at Long Bridge, in
April last. The case went to the
jury at four yesterday, who after
remaining in for seventeen hours re-
turned their verdict
The following men, "good and
true" composed the jury:
Walter Satcher, foreman, Brooks
Hallman, Smith Martin, J. J. Padgett,
D. S. Plunkett, Wilson Kemp, M. NJ.
Asbill, Cal. LaGrone, Clay Dodgen,
Peter Schumpert, J. E. Griffith, Paul
Witt.
The defendant put up strong
fight and the testimony put up by
them was contradictory at almost
every material point to that of the
state. The plea of self-defense was
interposed.
Sentence has not yet been passed.
1t is not yet known whether or not
a motion for new trial will be made
No notice of such motion has yet
ben given. The defendants, as is
known, are all young white men,
while the deceased was a negro. All
of Mond2y and yesterday were con-
sumed with the trial of the case. 1t
is known that eleven of the jurors
were in favor of the verdict found,
within fifteen minutes after they re-
tired. One member of the panel re-
fused to agree until nearly nine this
morning,

the hand Of Providence had dragged
the body with the 50 pound weight
to the surface of the water in orde,
that a humane people might learn
how horrifying was the treatment
given the negro by his murderers.
His hands were tied together with
a new cotton rope.
At the inquest it was brought out
that Edwards had gone, that he was
a wandering sort of fellow and that
he had been at work on the farm of
Lewis Martin. Keitt Bookard also
worked on the same place. There
was testimony which looked dark for
certain individuals, and it seems that
the terrible crime was. committed
while the men were crazed with llq-
uor. Peter Bookard, brother of the
deceased, testified at the inquest that
he had heard Edwards say that he
had been forced by Piney and Benny
Martin to do whatever he had done
in the killing OF Bookard, Edwards
was not heard of after the day of
the killing until he was brought to
Columbia under arrest Sunday night
by Solicitor Hildebrand and a Pin
ke.ton detective.

TACOMA FACTORY
f. BRANCHING OUT

The Pacific Starch company. one of the
later industrial enterprises to become es-
taphshed IN Tacoma, is starting the bust
ness OF the year with the addition of
two new departments. One is the manu-
facture of package goods and the other
a department for the manufacture of
gluten. The first package goods were put
up this week and shipment will be put
on the market in. few days. In the
package goods the company is putting up
a superior quality of laundry starch and
a flour starch, made entirely of Washing
ton wheat, for table use The latter is
intended as a substitute for cornstarch.
The gluten department also has lust been
completed and by its manufacture the
company Is able to utilize all the by.
products of the wheat after the starch has
been taken out.
W.. X. Reynolds of jackson, Mich,
president of the company, has been in Ia
coma all this week checking up the bust
ness OF the company and looking after
matters connected with the new depart
ures. When seen by Times reporter to-
day Mr.. Reynolds said "The business of
the four months the company has operated
IN Tacoma has been eminently satisfac-
tory. to us. In fact, when we came to
check the business up we were greatly
surprised to see what progress had been
made IN that short time. We are now
shipping starch all over Washington, Ore
gon and California, and as far east as New
York state, where we are working up an
excellent trade. With the advent on the
market of our package goods we expect
to still further extend our trade We are
going to advertise Tacoma too, and with
every carload of our goods that goes east
there will be $4,000 pictures in colors
telling of the fact that there is such a
place on the map as Tacoma, Washington.
Commercially, can see very bright
prospects ahead for Tacoma, and we are
mighty glad that we are located here"
Mr.. Reynolds leaves today for his home
in jackson. Mich, and probably will not
return to Tacoma for some time, as he also
has extensive business interests there.
The company is now making elaborate
preparations to entertain the delegates to
