Rogers. The high wind was not fa-
vcrable for outdoor speaking, but the
orators have been public speakers for
SO many years that stiff breeze has
but little effect upon them.
~ The greater portion Of Mr. Rogers
address was devoted to a discussion
OF the tariff. The object lesson he
presented was 35 cent corn during the
era of a protective tariff and 10c corn
under the operation of the German
Wilson's low tariff during Grover
Cleveland's last administration. lie
said that vote for tariff reduction
was vote to cut down the price Of
labor and the price Of farm products.
He laid particular stress upon the fact
that tariff for revenue only, the
Democratic kind, had failed to sup

other hand cheapened the markets

level that classed him with the tramps

Whisky Caused Serious
Fight Here Last
Evening.

There was almost murder in the
McGeorge building Sunday evening.
DR.. e. A. Stubblefeld, on going into
his dentists Office at about $50 Sun
day evening, found a man lying in a
pool Of blood on his floor He was
unconscious, and apparently in a dy-
ing condition. DR.. Fl. @. Mccarthy
was called, and after working on him
for several hours succeeded in restor-
ing him to consciousness.
The injured man is Hill Ford, a
carpenter, about 40 years old, who
came here about a year ago from Mus
kogee. The assailant was Sherman
Hyatt, the gunmaker, in whose room
in the McGeorge building the fight
occurred. No one was in the room at
the time of the fight save the two
men concerned, and of them
Ford this morning says he doesn't
know what the fight was about or
what it was that struck HIM, while
Hyatt, by advice Of his counsel, Carey
Caldwell, refused to talk.
Last night it was feared Ford would
die. He had four or five cuts on his
head, and besides this he had been
struck with some blunt instrument,
fracturing his skull Hyatt was ar
rested on the street by Marshal III. e.
Ridenhour He was considerably
under the influence Of liquor. One Of
his hands was broken, and there were
few bruises on his face. He said
that Ford got no more than was com
ing to him, and appeared pleased with
the completeness Of his job. He was
sent to the federal jail, in default OF
81, 900 bond on tile charge Of assault
with intent to kin,
Hyatts work room was spattered
with blood to considerable height
up the walls, showing that the fight
must have been fast and furious. Two
empty quart BOTTLES that had evident

Eeglaence Of the cause Of the fight.
The two men had been the best of
friends for some time

HERE'S A NEW HoLpUP GAME
"Dead Man in Road Comes to Life
Robs Autoists, and Then Takes
Machine.

Phoenixville, PA party of -four
Philadelphians two women and two
men, who left Philadelphia the other
morning for an automobile jaunt
through the PerlSiomen valley, were
skimming along when the chauffeur
discovered a dark object lying in the
middle Of the road that resembled a
man.
The machine was stopped, the men
alighted from the auto and were about
to make an examination when the
dead one" jumped to his rect, and
drawing a revolver ordered the in
qnisitive autoists to throw up their
hands.
Another roughly clad man emerged
from the woods and joined the hold
up. All of the party were then re-
lieved of their valuables, which in
cluded $94 in money. three gold
watches, several diamond rings and
a pair of diamond earrings which one
of the women was compelled to re-
move from her ears.
The women were then forced to
vacate the machine and the highway
men took their places on the front
seat. About two miles from where
the hold-up occurred the automobilists
found their machine at the bottom of
Perkiomen creek.
