PERFORMING ELEPHANTS.
WILL DELIGHT PEOPLE

The Adam Forepaugh and Sells
Brothers Big United Shows has the
best herd of performing elephants in
the world. These moster pachyderms
conduct a barber shop, play at ten
pins, form pyramids, eat at tables, tel
ephone to each other and do other
surprising acts. "Bolo," one of the
largest elephants of the herd, walks
around the ring holding up her right
front foot on which the trainer stands.
The Dancing FOrepaugh herd of ele-
plants present a marvellous perform
ance, and have long been noted. Those
who have seen them cannot talk
enough about this wonderful circus
feature and are doing excellent adyer-
Using for this immense circus. Along
with the many features this year will
come, Acrobats from the Old World
and the New, giants, pigmies, beasts
of the widest forests of the world
strange birds and daring bareback
riders, and the Automobile Double
Somersault feature.
The hundreds Of superb horses are
another feature. Beauties" say the
critics. For fifty years there has not
been the slightest change in the fea-
lures of a circus parade until this
year. Forepaugh and Sells Bros. have
departed from the path-beaten lines of
the past. Circus day now takes on
an entirely new significance. 1t cost
the management $1,OOO,OOO to devise
and build new attractions for their
street display. This is one instance of
the enterprise and the up-to-date pol
icy of the best of all shows Tomorrow

WOMEN GIVEN BEATING.
White Caps i'm Kentucky Apply Bug.
gy Whips to Them.

CARRIED as white caps" score
or more of women joined with a
mob of 100 men in whipping two wo-
men in Morgan county, KY, Satur'
day. The victims of the mob were
sisters, Mamie and Mary Combs.
The beating was most severe
as attested by the fact that two new
buggy whips were worn out on the
backs of the women. After that they
were forced into vehicle, sent to
the nearest railroad station and put
on a train for their former home in
Breathitt county, under orders never
to return.
The Combs women were accused
of operating a resort in an isolated
section of Morgan county. They had
been warned frequently to leave but
they paid no attention to the orders
and feeling against them became so
intense that when the whipping was
decided upon many women insisted
upon being allowed to join the
white caps"

JUDGE POPE DYING.
Former Chief Justice Has But Few
Days to Live.

Columbia, March 10.-Seventy
years old, Hon. Young John Pope
who was Captain B. R. Tillman's lieu
tenant in the reform movement OF
the early '90's and who retired two
years ago from the chief justiceship
of the supreme court, lies critically
i'll at his home in Newberry. A let
ter received here to-day says: eve
have heretofore been keeping out OF
the papers all reference to Judge
Pope's condition for the reason that
he insisted on reading them or hav-
ing them in a way read to him. He
has passed beyond that stage now,
however, and we no longer see any
use in it. In fact, it is now but right
that his friends should be informed.
Poor fellow, he is now permanently
in bed and it is too apparent that
the end is not far ahead. I scarcely
see how he can live for more a short
while. 1 say five to ten days. The
last stages of the disease have been
reached and the doctors say that it
could be month, but it may be at
any moment, or in a day or so. There
is no longer any reason for speaking
quietly"

TOOK CHILDREN FROM MOTHER.
Wife Asks Authorities for Return of
COlletOn Man.

Walterboro, March 13.-James
Price, who was acquitted a year ago
of the killing of Willie Reddish, in
upper Colleton, near Williams, re-
turend a week ago from Florida,
where he has been living for some
time and, going to his old home, at
tempted to take his two children
from their mother, his wife, from
whom he had been separated for a
year. She demonstrated with him
and he attacked her, beating her Sc
verely. Price then took the children,
a boy and a girl, aged and 4 years,
and left with them for Florida. Mrs.
Price endeavored to stop him and no
tilted Sheriff Fox to have him arrest
ed as he passed through WATERFORD.
Price, however, eluded the sheriff
and went Sunday to Florida. The
Savannah authorities were telegraph
ed to stop Price there, but he evil
dently got by Savannah, as nothing
has been heard of his capture.
Price has had a checkered career
for the past few years. Four years
ago he shot and killed Willie Red
dish and was finally acquitted, after
a mistrial or two. Drink has been
his besetting sin.
Mrs. Price came to Walterboro to-
day to urge the capture Of Price and
the return of her children. Sheriff
Fox has the matter under advisement
and will endeavor to have Price re-
turned

of most distressing accident, which
occurred here this afternoon, the
one-year-old daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Charles H. Cole is dead, and the
arm of Mrs. Wallace, a neighbor of
the Coles, is terribly lacerated.
Charles, the 10-year-old son of Mr..

TWO KILLED BY LIGHTNING.
Negro and His Child Meet Instant
Death, Near spartanburg.

Spartanburg, March 13.-While
standing under a large oak tree,
with his four-year-old baby boy in
his arms, ]. H. Evern, a negro who
lives near Hobbysville, was struck
by lightning. Both the negro and the
boy were instantly killed. A peculiar
feature Of the tragedy was that no
marks whatever were left on the boy,
but the father was badly mutilated.
All metal about his person was COM
pletely melted; the buttons on his
overalls were melted off and a pock-
ct knife showed signs of the current.
Another negro, about 100 yards
distant, saw the stroke, and when he
arrived at the side of the negro both
were dead. 1t is thought that death
must have been instantaneous.

with the efforts of those who had
gathered, prevented the spread of the
flames to the nearby buildings.

Spartanburg, March 14.-Augustus
H. Kirby, magistrate of Spartanburg,
who refuses to resign his office in
favor of Gov. Blease's appointee, J.
Malcolm Bowden, because Mr.. Bow
den was not recommended by the
county legislative delegation and his
appointment was not confirmed by
the senate, received a letter from the
governor to-day, informing him that
any further acts of his would be in

The letter was in reply to one OF
Maj. Kirby, in which he told the gov

two years, or until my successor is
appointed by and with the consent
of the senate, regret that under the
existing circumstances I do not feel
authorized or duty bound to surren-
der the office of magistrate"
Gov. Blease says:
Your letter OF the 10th received.
1 had hoped that you would retire
gracefully, and not cause me to re-
move you. However, I now repeat
that your commission is revoked and
any further acts of yours will be in
violation of the law"
Maj. Kirby said that he would let
the courts decide whether his. acts
were in violation of the law. He said
he had not made up his mind wheth-
er or not to again write to the gov
ernor, but that if he did so that is
what he would tell him.
Maj. Kirby continues TRANQUILITY to
perform the duties of his Office. He
will preside over a hearing in an i'm
portant civil case tomorrow.
Mr.. Bowden is also going about his
business as though there were nc

RACE RIOT STARTS.
Entire Police Force of Galveston
Called Upon to Quell Disturbance

Galveston, Texas, March ia
race riot was precipitated early to-
day by the stabbing of Winfield Joel,
a soldier from the camp at Fort
Crockett, by an unknown negro in
Galveston. One Mexican and four
negroes were severely beaten and the
house in front of which the stabbing
occurred was set on fire and burned
to the ground. The entire police
force of the city was called out to
quell the disturbance. Joel, who Is
a member of the One Hundred and
Forty-fourth company, coast artil-
lery, stationed at Fort Moultrie,
Charleston, S. c., lies in Sealy hos
pital, seriously wounded with deep
knife wound in the chest just above
the heart. He probably will recover.
Started the Fuss.
An invidious remark made by one
of Joel's companions about the color
of the occupants of the house where
the trouble occurred is supposed to
have caused the attack.
Joel was about to open the door
of the place, it is said, when some
one leaned out of an adjacent window
and stabbed him. He fell into the
gutter unconscious and Immediately
great crowd gathered, composed Of
soldiers and civilians of both colors.
The soldiers and white civilians at
tackled every negro in sight and set
fire to the house. The solitary police
man who appeared and attempted to
restore order likewise was set upon
and wounded.
Called for Aid.
Realizing his inability to cope with
the situation single-handed the Of
fcer sent in a riot call, and in q
short time every available policeman
in Galveston was on the scene. The
fire department had great difficulty
in fighting the fire on account Of the
crowd.
Order finally was restored and the
soldier who is supposed to have
wounded the policeman was arrested
on the charge of assault with intent
to kill. His name is Alfred Burk-
walter, a private in the Fifteenth
company, from Fort Barrancas, Flori-
da.
Col. Bailey, who is In command OF
the provisional regiment to- which
the soldiers are attached, is investi-
eating the affair and courtmartial
probably will be ordered.
