A NIGHtT WIT!F T&ZAIN IottlS A Drumuner's Exiwrienwce w ith TexAs )out law-s. CFrom the Atlanta Con'nt liVI., "Has the morning papcr anything about the cepture of those Texas train robbers?" said a guest at the iMbaUl vesterday morning to his neighbor who was burying himself in the morning paper. "Guess not," was thie careiess reply. "I don't see nothing about it." "Because, von see," said the inquirer, apologetically, "I feel a little personal interest in those fellows. I am on my way back there now, and hope to re ccgnize some of 'em when I get to the jails where they have the saspected men confined." "Recognize them?" said the newspaper reader, lowering his paper and looking curiously at the speaker. "Yes," he said, touching the top of his head carelessly. "I was on the train, and got a pretty rough introduction to them. I don't care to try the experience again, though, I confess, I would be rather glad to re new the acquaintance under other cir cumstances if I could recognize them among the captured men." The paper went dowa on the tabte, and the reader and all those seated at the table were attention. "You see," he continued, encouraged by the interested attention of the yet breakfastless group, "it was in the night, and we had all retired in the sleeping car. After we passed San An tonio on the way to Fort Worth I drop ped off to sleep. The next thing I knew I was awakened by loud voices. I found the car dark and the train still. I soon discovered by the talk that the occupants of the berths just adjoining me were be ing robbed. I tumbled at once to the situation and began to hustle to hide my money and watch. I was just in the act of slipping them under the mattress when I heard one of the robbers say, 'Rip it open,' which showed that they were doing their work leisurely and thoroughly. So I concluded it was use 'less to hide it there. I reached over by the window and found a little crack ust at the side of the bed and I shoved my watch and roll of bills down there. Then I slipped my pants under the pillow to give the robbers a chance to go through them. There were a couple of silver dollars and some change in the pocket. Just as I did this, however, it occurred to me that if they found so little as that they would think I had more somewhere else. So I reached over and pulled a bill off my roll and stuck it in the pocket, and settled myself as though I was asleep. When they came I didn't 'wake' at first, and wben I did I started up as though just waked out of a sleep, and asked what was the matter. Then one of them hit me whack over the head with a revolver and told me to wake up and get out your money in a huriy. I miade some littlo show of protest and gave up my little pile in my breeches pockets with a good deal of grambling. The leader, who by the way was a rather fine looking fellow, and evidently a per son of good education, said: "Where's the rest of it? You're a drummer, ain't you? You drummers always have plen ty of money!' I said: 'That's where you are mistaken, captain. We sell the goods, but don't collect the bills. We never have any money. Now, captain,' I continued for effect, 'can't you give me back those two silver dollars and not leave me without absolutely any money?' 'Oh, we are not making change to-night,' he answered, as he passed on to the next victim. As he finished up the car apu mea back he stopped at my berth again and said: 'How do you feel now, part ner?' I answered that I felt pretty well. 'Well, good night,' said he with a laugh, 'I hope to meet you again.' Wrten they went out I pulled out my watch and roll and found that I was only out twelve dollar's and a few cents over. .Most of the people on the train lost all their money, watches and diamonds." "Would yon know9,the men ifyo "Undoubtedly. They wore no masks and the lights they carried enabled me to see them distinctly, e~pecially the leader, and a fine looking fellow ie was too. The gentleman whose rather startling experiences had furnished the theme for breakfat table gossip left shortly after wards for Texas, where he goes for the purpose of identifying, if possible, the 2nen now under arrest. Alleged Anarcnists. in Ph.adelphia. A special from Philadelphia, Pa.. to the Augusta Gazette sys the reports of a strong Anarchistic movement in the manrufactur ing districts of that city are far from ha-g exaggerated. A close and careful investi gation has disclosed the startling fact that the Anarchists have formed no less than 40 groups of active members. The entire membership is about 3,000. The male and female Anarchists represent the most wicked and revolutionary class to b e found among the foreign element that have seemed a stronghold iu the Kemington manufactur ing district, vwhere there are between 300 and 400 cotton and woolen mills and othier establishments, and which give employ mnent to 100,000. Since the recent visit of Herr Most, the ex-convict and Socialist leader. the revolu tionits have been more rabid in their de nunciations and threats against the capital ists than- ever before. D~etectives, wh:> have been present at their recent meetings, state that some of 3.the most bitter speech makers have advocated the burning down of the prominent factories and mills, while other loud-mouthed fanatics have urged their hearers to break into the houses of the 'capitalists at midnight, pull the mill owners from their beds and hiang them to the nearest lamp posts. The incendiary harangues of the Anarch ists have caused mutch excitement to pre vail, as it is apprehended these teachings may evenuate in a terrible and sanguinary outbreak. The rumor that a number of Anarchists have lately bought rities and ammunition adds much t o the general comn motion, as these preparations are beliuved to indicate the early inauguration of agres sive operations. .A Destructl'e Storm.

Any uenber found guilty of violating this law shall be suspended not less than six iionth or ex 'eli d. No tine shall be imposed f-r this offense. Any local or other assembly so o'ig iall be suspended during the plea-ure of the general executive board. or shall have its charter rcvoked by s:d board. Nearly every assembly composd sdolely of Gerians voted against this clause, and therefore against the whole. The article on co-operation was adopted unanimously. It is quite lengthly, and provides for the ercation and disbursement of fund to aid co-operative enterprises. Eac local assembly is req uircd to collect and deposit a slm not less than two cents per mo:th for every member in good stand ing. The money is to be invested by the co-operative board, and the protits are to be divided equally between the general as sebiblv. the co-operative fund anud the workmuen who create the pronit. Tie new constitution gives the general executive board full power to settle all strikes and disputes, whether sanctioned by the board or not. and it increases the powers of the general board in many othe: nartincuirs. Hereafter each district, state, national or unattached local assembly, shal be entitled to one delegate to each t3.000 ment-rs. The term of office, over which there i:.s been so much controversy, h:s been *,-ed at two years. Compensation htre-fter will be fixed by the general as smny when an officer is elected. Tue natioal trade assenibly clause is probably the :m.-st important of the changes. It pro vides that: "Any particular trade -)r calling may form a national trade assembly by gvinmg at leat three month's notice to each local assembiv. the ,Atire membership of whic'h is composed of such trade, to attend a con vention for the purl)se of forming a na tion:d trade assendJiy. At least two-thirds of the local assemblies must vote in favor of the trade assembly. and not less than ten assemblies, if there be that number in the order, may receive a charter. Section three of the article is not very stronz, however, as it still leaves the mater in the hands of the general execu tive board, which. if the law has bcen com plied with. may instruct the general secre tar" to issue a charter. Votes will be re ceived until July 15th and recorded. although the new constitution will be in effect some time before that, probably about July 1st. A SINGULAl DEATIt. A Cc'red Man illed by Bell; V:tted In the lead by Another Darlt'v. Jack Dillard, colored. car coupler in the. freight vard of the C. &k G. R'. it., in this city, met with death yesterday aiternoon in .most singular way. A bout 3 o'clock the . fting engine was placing a t:.sk car otosite the pumps of the turpentine reser:xir of Loriek 6: Lowvrance, and not1 getting the car in the proper polsition to re ceive tue turpentine, after manking sevrl attempts. Dillard became impatient and halked at Scott Logan, the colored tireman on the shifting engine, that he was not at tend inn to his business, whereup on the two men passed a few banteringr words. When the tank car was plaedt in position Dullard got an the footboard of the engine andi told Logan that if' he wanted anything out of him to get dowvn on zhe gaind-. Mr. W. 1). Graham. the engineer, ay.': he was not impressed that the men were angry. but were about to engage in a ply ful tussle. Logan got off the engilne, and, as he stepped on the ground, D~lard, laugig, collared and slappedl hinm on tle face. Logan than collared Dillard and thc two scuffled around a little, when Logan butted Dillard in the forehead. Both men were laughing meanwhile and desisted when Mr. Graham told them to gult their foolishness and conic on to work. Dillard said he had enough if Scott lad, antd walked off a short distance, while Scott got bsal c O the engine. During the tusl neither mnif went to the ground, but one held on to the other 'ud Were kicisng each hei~r on the shins. The engine then wvent up to the peniterl tiary to car:y a c'ar. and before it returned .r. 31. B3. Green, the yard master. found Dullard lying insensible under the edge of a car near the scene of the scurhie. His cat and shoes were off, and ha h:;d unltut toned his pants, but he could not speak wiien 3Mr. Green called to him. 3Mr. Green, thinking he had been mashed bietween the ears, so stated to 3Ir. Grahanm when he retut ned. 3Mr. Graham then said such was not the case, and related the circumstances of the sem~iie. In the nmeatitme Dr. Tavlor had been sum'oed, but before he cotuld reach the yard illard was dead. It is thought he died in about 30 minutes subsequent to the sui!e, as near as could be judged. There was no sign of the blow he had received, but at the spot where hie was lying, it ap peared as if he had spit up a small quantity of bl- ad. lHe was to have gone up to the peniteniary with the car, but not comning to the eisoine wthen it left, the engineer went on without him, under the impression tht he was otherwise engaged in the yard. W\hen told that Dillard was dead Scott Logan began weeping and made no effort t g.t away. Soon afterwards Policeman Ogg appeared on the scene, arrested Logan and c'onilned him in the guard house. Cooner Civil later in the afternoon held an inutt seeuring a jury composed of all c~lored men with the exception of three. C. D). Lowndes acted as foreman and sev ral wvitnesses testinled to the effect as pub lishe-t above. Adjourning from where the otly lay, the jury went to the guard house where Dr. Taylor was examined, Hie tes tilled that tim blow caused the death and tht it w'as his opinion that death resulted fron hemorrhage of the tbrain. It was shown by several w' itnesses that Dilard, on the 1st M1arch last, got his heaid mashed between some cars andl was laid up a couple of weeks from his injuries. lie adt off and.

Never marry a dude who struts ::hout dandylike, in his gloves anol ruties. with a silver cane and rings on his lingers. D ware! There is a trap. Never marry a niggard, cloze fisted. mean, sordid wretch, who savcs eve:y penny, or spends it grudgingly. Take care lest he stint you to death. Never marry a stranger. whose character is not known or tested. Some fenleICs jump into the fire with their eyes wide open. Never marry a mope or a drone. -e who drawls and draggles through life, one foot after another, and lets things take their own course. Never marry a man who treats his sister or mother unkindly or indifferently. Such treatment is a sure indication of a mean and wicked man. Never, on any account, marry a gambler. a profane person, one who in the least speaks lightly of God or religion. Such a man can never make a good husbazd. Never marry a zloven. aman who is ne ligent of his person of his dress, and is filthy in his habits. The external appear ance is an index to the heart. Shun the rake as a snake. viper, a very demon. Finally, ncvgr marry . mr.n who Is ab dicted to the use of ardent spirits. Depemi upon it, you are better off alone, than you would be tied to a man whose 1reath is polluted, and whoec vitais are being gnawed out by alcohol. Thingx to Remember. That salt should be eaten with nuts to aid digestion. That milk which stands too long makcs bitter butter. That rusty fintirons should be r.hed over with beeswa-- and 'ard. That It rests yod in sewing to change po sitions frequently. That a strong hot lemonade taken at bed time will break a bad cold. That tough beef is made tender by lay ing a few minues in vinegar water. That a little soda will relieve sieh head ache cnu'ed by indesAg. That a strong aup of coffee will reaiove the odor of onions from the breath, That a cup of hot water 'drunk before meals will prevent nausea and dyspepsia. That well ventilated bedrooms will pre vent morning headaches and lassitude. That one in a faint should be laid oi the flat of their back. elevating the feet. then looser. th~i: c.othea and let them alone. That consumptive night sweats may be arrested by sponging the body nightly in salt wa'er. ITh'at a fever patient may be made cool and comfortable by frequently sponging off with soda water. That to beat eggs quickly, add a pinch of salt. Salt cools, and coid eggs froth rap idly. That the hair may be kept from falling out after sickness by frequent applicaticn to the scalp of sage tea. That you can take out spots from wash goods by rubbing them with the yclk of eggs before washing. The white spots on varnished furniture will disappear if you ho>d a hot plate over them. Young America's Quick Wit. A quick-witted youngster, who is anvays in dirt, got into disgrace the other day. The teacher, ferule in hand, called him to her desk, and on the way thither the boy made a hasty prep~aration for the approach ing ceremony by hastily drawing his tongue across the palm of his right hand and wiping the latter upon his pant' leg. Arriving at the desk, and at the word of comnmandi, he extended the newly eceauca hand. The teacher looked at it a moment in silence, and then in a solemn and re proving voice told the little culprit that if he would show her a dirtier hand in that school she would let him oiT. Quick as thought the little fellow whipped out his left hand from behind his back and looked up with a smile of triumph. The feruliag was indefinitely postponed. How P'ale You Are: Is frequently the exclamation of one l:ady to another. The fact is not a pleasant one to have mention, but still the act imay be a kindly one, for it sets the one addressed to thinking, apprises her of the fact that sh~e is not in good health. and leads her to seek a reason therefor. Pallor is almost always attendant upon01 the first stages of consumip tion. The system is enfeebled, anid the blood is impoverished. D~r. Pierce's 'Golden Medical Discovery" will act as a tonic upon the system, will enri-h the im p)overished blood, and restore r-oe to the cheek. O0THER'S M FRIEND --MAKES Child -Birth Easy !
