P.inM>?a ni> tha 11 flat 2] Cfl Of the A6V? -"-fi w- -?? Idol of Fashion. ? Brooklyn, Aug. 5.?Rev. Dr. Talmage, who is now in Melbourne on his * ^ round the world tour, has chosen aa the subject of his sermon for today through the press 'The Tragedy of Dress," the text selected beirg I Peter iil, 3, 4, "Whose adornirg let it not be that cutward adorning of plaiting the hair and the wearing of gold or ot putting on of or?r?or?i hnt iflt it he the hidden man of the b?art." Tbat we should all be clad 13 proved by the opening of the first wardr&be in in paradise with its apparel of dark green. That we should all,- as far a3 cur means allow us, be beautifully and gracefully appareled is proved by the fact tbat God never made a wave but he gilded it with golden sunbeams, or a tree but he garlanded it with blossoms, or a sky but he studded it with stars, or allowed even the smoke of a furnace to ascend but he columned and lurreted and domed and scrolled it into outlines of indescribable gracefulness. When I see the apple orchard of the sprmg and the pageantry of the autumnal forests, I ??;? iU.i come iO IQC CUUCiUHiULL lum u uaiuic ever doe8 join ihechurch, while she may be a Quaker in the silence of her worship, see never will be a Quaker in the style of her dress. Why the notches of a fern leaf or the stamen of a water lib Why, when the day departs, does it let the folding doors of heaven stay open so long, when it njight go in so quicklj? One summer morning I saw an army of a million spears, each one adorned with a diamond of the first water?I mean the grass with tbe dew on it. When the prodigal came home, his father not only put a coat on his back, but jewelry on his hand. Christ wore a beard. Peul, the bachelor apostle, not with ens sAntimentR.lit'C. ad. mired the arrangement of a woman's hair when he said in his epistle, "If a woman have long hair, ii is a glory unto her." There will be a fashion in heaven as on earth, bat it will be a different kind of fashion. It will decide the color of the dress, and the population of tbat country, by a beautiful law, will wear white. I say these thiogs as a background to my sermon, to show you tbat I have no prim, precise, prudish or cist iron thsories on the subject cf human apparel. But the goddess of fashion has net up her throne in this world, and at the sound of the timbrels we are all ? - expected to fall down and worship. The Old and ??ew Testament of her Bible are the fashion plates. Her altars smoke wit n ine sacnnce 01 tne Doaies, mrnas and souls of 10,000 victims. In her temple four people stand in the organ loft, and from them there comes down a cold drizzle of music freezing on the ears of her worshipers. This goddess or fashion has Taecome a rival of the Lord of heaven and earth, and it is high time that we unlimbered our batteries against this idolatry. When I come to count the victims of fashion, I Snd as many masculine as feminine. Men make an aasy tirade agaiubt woman, as though she were the chief worshiper at this ir?/\lofw\no oVmrinA on/1 r?A HnnKf ortma iuviaw?vuo kjuviiuv) uuu uv uvuk/v hvuiv men in the more conspicuous ptirt cf the pew have already cast glances at the more retired part of the pew, their look a prephecy of a generous distribution. My sermon shall be as appropriate for oue end of the pew as for the other. Men are as much the idolators of fashion a8 women, but they sacrifice on a different part of the altar. With men the fashion goes to cigars and clubrooms and yachting parties and wine suppers. In the United States the men chew up and smoke $100,000,000 worth of tobacco every year. That is their fashion. : Ic London not long ago a man died who badstarted m life with $750,000, but he : ate it all up in gluttonies, sending his i agents to all parts of the earth for some : rar6 delicacy ,or the palate, sometimes i one plate of food coasting him $300 or $400. He ate up his whole fortune and had only one guinea left. With that he ! b?ught a woodcock, had it dressed in the i very best style, ate it, gave two hours i for digestion, then walked out on West i minister bridge and threw himself into 1 the Thames and died, doing on large scale what you and I have often 3een i done on a small scale. But men do not : abstain from millinery and elaboration I of skirt through anv superiority of humi- i lity. It is only because such append- i ages would be a blockade to bas-jaess. ' What would sashes and trains 3 J yards i lone do in a stock market? And jet men 1 are the disciples of fkshion jast as much i as woman. Some of them wear boots ] sot ight they can^hardly walk in the paths < of righteousness. And there are men ! who buy expensive suits of clothes and i never pay for them, and who go though i the streets in great stripes of color, like animated checkerboards. I say these things because I want fo show you that I am impartial in my discourse, and that both sexes, in the language of the surrogate's office, shall "share and rhare t alike." As God may help me, I shall show you what are the destroying and | deathful influences of inordinate fashion. < Thft first hftlefhl T ia < ia fraud, illimitable and ghasty. Do you known that Arnold of the Revolution proposed to . II his country in order to get money to support his wife's wardrobe? I declare here before God and this people that the effort to keep up expensive establishments In this country is sending more business men to temporal perdition than all other causes combined. What was it that sent Gilman to the penitentiary, and Philadelphia Morton to the waterinsr ol stocks, and th? in. aurance presidents to perjured state- c ments about their assets, and has com- ( pletely upset our American finances? r What was it that overthrew the United r States secretary at Washington, the crash i of whose fall shook the continent? But \ why should I go to these iamous default- 2 ings to show what men will do in order t to keep up great home style and expen - r sivft wardrohft- wh?n vf>ti enH T knn? v - scores of men who are pat to their wits' j: end and are lashed from January to I>e- r cember in the attempt? t Our politicians may theorize until the expiration of tfceir terms of office as to t the best way of improving our monetary a condition in this countr>.

Cashmeres of a thousand dol- f lars each are not rare on Broadway. It , is estimated that there are 10,000 wo- , men in these two cities who have expended on their personal array $4,000 a i Tear. j "What are men to do in order to keep , nn pnch home wardrobe*? Steal! That i is the only respectable thing they can . do. During the last fifteen years there j have been innumerable fin? businesses shipwrecked on the wardrobe. The ( temptation comc s in this waj: A man | thinks m^re ot his family than eft' all the , world outside, and if they spend the evening in describing to him the superi- j or wardrobe of the iamuy across the j street, that they cannot bear the sight , of, the mau is throws on his gallantry j and on his pride of Jamily ana without translating his feelings into platn language he goes into extortion and issuing , of false stock and skillful penmanship in t writing somebody else's name at the foot of a promissory note, and they all J go down together?tbe bust-ana to me prison, the Wife to the sewing machine, the children to be taken care of by those who were called poor relations. Oh, for some new Shakespeare to arise and write the tragedy of human clothes! Will yet forgive me if I say 111 tersest shape possible that some of the men have to forge and to per j are and to swindle to pay for their wives' dresset? I will say it whether you forgive me cr nor. Again, inordinate fashion is the foe of all Christian almsgiving. Men and women put bo much in personal display that they often have nothing left for God and the cause of.soflering humanity. A Christian man cracking his Palais Royal glove across the back by shutting up his hand to hide the cent he puts into the poor box. A Christian woman at the story cfthe Hottentots, cryins copious tear:* into a $25 handkerchief and then givin? a 2 cent piece to the collection, thrusting it under the bills so people will not know but it was a $10 goldOne hundred dollars for incense to fashion: 2 cents for God, God gives as 90 cents out of every dollar. The other 10 cents by command of bis Bible belong to him. Is not God liberal according to his tithing system laid doarn in the Old Testament? Is not God liberal in giving us 90 cents out of a dollar when he takes bat 10? We do not like that. We want to have 99 cents for ourselves and 1 for God. Now, I would a great deal rather steal 10 cents fromyou than from God. I think one reason why a grest many people do not get along in worldly accumulation faster is because they do not observe this divine rule. God says, "Well, if that man is not satisfied with 90 cents of a dollar then 1 will take the whole dol lar, and I will give it to the man or wo man who Is honest with me." The greatest obstacle to charity m the Christian church today is the fact that men expend so mnch money on their table, and women so much on their dress, they have got nothing left tor the work of God and the world's betterment. In i my first settlement at Belleville, N. J., the canse of missions was being present- : ed one Sabbath, and a plea for the charity of the people was being made, when J an old Ciiristihn man in the audience 1 lost his fcj;lance and said right ought in , the midst of the sermon, "Mr. Tilmage J how are we to give liberally to these ; srand and glorious causes when our fam- ] ilies dress as tbey do?" I did not an- 1 swer thai question. It was the only i time in my i>fe when I had nothing to < say. Again, inordinate fashion is distraction ] to public worsfeip. You know very well there are a good many paopie who come ; to church iost as they go io the races to ' see who will come out first. What a ? flutter it makes in church when some j woman with extraordinary display of \ fashion ccmes in! "What a love of a ; bonnet!" uays some one: "What a perfect fright!." say five hundred. For the ] most merciless critics in tne world are fashion critics. Men and women with 30uls to be 3aved passing the hour in ] wondering where that man got hts era- ] vat or what store the woman patronizes. ? En many of our churches the preliminary < exercises are takeh up with the discus- J jion of wardrobes. It is pitiable. 13 it 1 cot wonderful the Lord does not strike 1 the meeting houses with lightning! ' What distraction of public ?7orship! Dy- 4 inor men and wnmnn. whose hndiffs are 300Q to be turned into du3t, yet before three worlds strutting like paacocks, the awful question of the soul's destiny submerged by the question of navy blue velvet and long fan train skirt, long enough to drag up the church aisle, the husband's store, office, shop, factory, fortune and the admiration of half the people in -ie building. Men and women some late ;o church to show their clothes People siting down in a pew or taking up a hyn:,nbook, all absorbed at trie same timet in personal array to sing: Rise, uysoul, and stretch thy wings; Thy better portions trace. Rise from transitory things Toward heaven, thy native place. I adopt the Episcopalian prayer and say, "Good Lord, deliver up!" Insatiate fashion also belittles the mOnr minrJa ht* nnlnrcrA/1 r?r ? Jwindla jest in proportion to the impor- < ance of the subject on which we con- k stantly dwell. Can you imagine any ( .hing more dwarfing to the human intel ect than the study of fashion? I see ] nen on the street, who, judging irom ] iheir elaboration. I think must have -aken two hours to arrange their apparel ( flJter a few vearsofthat kind of absorp.ion, which one of McAllister's magnily ng glasses will be powerful enough to nake the man's character visible. They J ill land in idiocy. I have seen men at J ,he summer watering places through f ashion the mere wreck of what they { )nce were. Sallow of cheek. Meager t >f limb. Hollow at the chest. Showing f 10 animation save in rushing across a r ooui to pick up a lady's fan. Simper- c ns: along the corridors, tbe s>>me com- ? )Uments they simpered 20 years ago. A 1 Sew York lawyer at United States g tote! Saratoga, within bur hearing- r ushed across a room to say to a sensi- t >le woman, "You are as sweet as * caches!" The fools of fashion are J? nyriad Fashion not only destroys the ji >odv, but :t makes idiotic the intellect. Yet my friends, I have given you only ^ he milder phase of this evil. It shuts t , great multitude out of heaven. The c irst peal of thunder that shook Sinai de- j lared. "Thou shalt have no other God d efore me " and you will have to choose 3 MaaMiir^iin4 i fir? ' r [>etweea the goddess of iashion and the Christian God. There are a great many seats in heaven, and ihev are all easy seats, bet not one seat for the devotee 5f fashion. Heaven is for meek and jaiet spirits. Heaven is for those who rMolr mnro df Qfuila than <"lf Ih^if Dodies, Heaven is lor those who have aaore joy in Christian charity than in dry J ;oods religion. Why, if you with your dolatry of tashion sbonld somehow get nto heaven, >ou would be for putting a French rooi on the "house of maDy naosions." Give up this idolatry vf iashion or give up heaven. What would you do staniiog beside ;he Countess of HuotiDgtoD, wbose joy t was to build chapels tor the poor, or with that Christian woman ol Boston who fed 1,500 children of tbe street at Faccail hall on New Year's day, aivicc Dut a3 a sort of doxology at the end cl ;he meeting a pair of shoes to each one )f thf m, or those Dorcases of modern society who have consecrated their needoo thu T.<ir<1 and who will crpt p.ti?.rnal reward for every "tUch they take. Op, bcq and women. give up the rdolatry )f fashion. Tbe rivalries and the competitions of such a lifa are a stupendous ivreichedness. You will always fiad some one with brighter array, and with more palatial residence, and with laven3er kid gloves that make a tighter fit. A.nd if you buy this thing and wear it ^ou will wish you had bought something slse and worn it. And the frets of such i life will bring the crows' feel, to your temples before they are due, and when jcu come to die you will have a miaerible time. I have seen men and wouen of fashion die, and I never saw one cf them die well. The trappiogs off, therp they lay on the tumbled pillow-, and there were just two things that oothered them?a wasted life and a coming eternity. X could not pacify them, for their body, mind and soul had been exhausted in the worship of fashLn, and Lhey csuld not appreciate the gospel. When I knelt by Iheir bedside, they were mumbling oat their regrets and 3aying: "0 God! 0 Goc!" ^.Their garments hang ap in the wardrobe never again to be seen by them. Without any exception, so tar as my memory serves me, they died without hope and went into eternity unprepared. The most ghastly deathbeads on earth are iha one where a man dies of delirium tremens, and the other where a woman dies after having sacrificed all her faculties cf body, mind and sou! in the worship of fashion. My friends, we must appear in judgment to answer for what we ha /e worn on oor bodies as well as for what repentances we have exercised with our souls. On that day I see coming in Beau Brummel of the last century, without his cloak, like which all England got a cloak, and without his cane, like which all Easland sot a cane; without his snuff-box, like which all England got a snuff-box. He, the fop of the age3, particular about everything but bis morals, and Aaron Burr, without [the letters that down to old age he showed ia pride to prove his early wicked gallantries, and Absolom without his hair, and Marchioness Pompadour Without her titles, and Mrs. Arnold, the belle of Wall street when that was the center of fash'on, without her fripperies of vesture. An/1 in crr#?Qt hnoromrdnARfl f.hftV fihall go away into eternal expatriation, while among the queens of heavenly society will be found Vashti, who wore the modest veil before the palatial bacchanalians, and Hannah, who annually made a little coat for Samuel at the temple, and Grandmother Lois, the ancestress of Timothy, who imitated her virture, add Mary who gave Jesus Christ to the world, atd many of you, the wives and mothers and sisters and daughters of the present Christian church, who, through great tribulation, are entering into the kingdom of God. Christ announced who would make up the royal family of heaven when he said, "WhoBoever doeth the will of God the same is my brother, my sister, my-mother." Protest Against Sugar Sacks. Farmers who hereafter cover their bales of cotton with sugar sack bagging will be anable to Had a market for their product. The cotton manufacturing companies who consume the cotton both here and in New England protest against its use and have given notice that they will not receive a bale of cotton this year that is packed in the sugar 3ack bagging. The objection to the substitute material tbat has been used Is that it is heavier than ordinary jute bagging, takes water quicker and retains it longer and stains and damages the cotton immediately next to the covering much more than the jute. The reason it stains the cotton more is that little or no air can pass through it' There is little if any of the cotton that comes to this market packed in the mgar sack bagging, but for the information of the farmers who may be considering its use. The Chronicle below gives the protest of the manufacturers which is being circulated here md elsewhere: Boston, Aug. 1st, 1894. President of the New York Cotton Exchange: Dear Sir:?We Treasurers of Cotton Manufacturing Companies in New England, hereby enter our protest igainst the use of sugar sacks in the covering of efotton bales in the States growing cotton for the reason that, beng closer than the ordinary j ute bagjing, it takes water quicker, absorbs nore, retains it longer, and stains and lamages the cotton immediately next ;he covering much more than the j ate. kny extra loss to the mills from such covering would cause us to reject any :otton thu3 covered.

Ths following, which Is the fall text of Judge Simontion's decision in the Silver habeas corpus case?the case upon which the State is endeavoring to have the United States SuDrem3 Ccurt declare, whether the J93 dispensary law is in violation of the constitution of the United S',ate3 or not? vill b? louad of great interest: The United Stales of America, District of South Carolina, 4th Circait? In the Circuit Ccurt?In the matter of A. Silver. This is a petition for discharge from custody under writ of habeas corpu3. The petition sets cut that Silver is a Russian subject, an alieD, and that he has been Bince the year 1892 and is now doins business or trading m the State of Siuth Carolina. That he is wroDgfully detained and imprisoned by Mr. John H. Dakes, sheriff cf Orangeburg county in said State, on a warrant issued by Mr. Charles P. lBrun3on, a trial justice, on 21st July, 1894, for an alleged violation of the act of the General Assembly of the State of South Hamlina onnnu'J/1 951 1SQ3 VUIV1IUI4) M^T^/4 I VV* MV A wvwu* *wv v entitled: An act to declare the law in reference to and farther regulate the use. sale, consumption, transportation and disposition of alcoholic liquors or liquids within the State of SDuth Carolina and and to police the same. The petition avers and charges in the?e words, "that the said act is unconstitutional, null and vjid, in violation of and repugnant to numerous and sundry provisions contained in the Constitution of the United States and that of the State of South Carolina, and that it is in violation of the treaty no v existing between the United States and the Russian Empire." The Hon. 0. W.Bachanan, Attorney General of the State of South Carolina, was present at the presentation of the petition, and upon the issuance of tne writ mea me reiura 01 me saerm thereto. The return simply submits the warrants of the trial justice upon which the sheriff acted. No mention whatever is made in the warrant or in the affidavit on which it was issued of the act of 1893, set out in the petition, nor is there any reference thereto. The argument has taken a wide range, and the fundamental principles of government, primordial rights of the people and the limitations of legislative power have been fully and learnedly discussed. This line of argument will not be followed, for the grounds on which a conclusion has been reached lie in a very narrow compass. The Courts of the Uniled States are very reluctant to interfere with the criminal process of the State courts. In Cook vs. ITyrt, 140 U.S. 195, the Supreme Court, recognizing the right under proper circumstances so to interfere, and adhering to its ruliDgs in ex parte Royall, 117, U. S., 241, and ex parte jconaa, 1 Did OIU, goes uu uuu Bayo; "While the power to issue writs of habeas corpus to Stale courts, which are proceeding in disregard of rights secured by the Constitution and laws of the United States exist, the practice of exercising this power before the question is raised ordeterminded in the State court is one which should not be encouraged. The party charged waives no questioa of jurisdiction by submitting to a trial of his case on the merits, and we think that comity demands that the Slate courts, under whose process he is held, should be appealed to in the first instance. Should such rights bo denied his remedy in the Federal Court will remain unimpaired." Sse also in re Frederick, 149 U. S. 74 is this one of those exceptional caaes in which this court should interfere? The avarments of the petition are vague and uncertaia. They contain a sweepifig assertion, that the act of 1893, under which he alleges tnat ne is prosecuted is null and void, *'In violation of and repugnant to numerous and sundry provisions" of the Federal State Constitutions, Over eo much of this assertion as refars to the Constitution of the Stale of South Carolina this court has no jaris diction in habeas corpus. It can only inquire if the prisoner i3 in custody for an act done or omitted in pursuance ot law of the United States or ot any order, process, or decree 01 a court of the same or of a jadge thereof, or is in custody m violation of the Constitution of the United States. (Revised Statutes ot the United States, Section 753 ) See in re Burves, 138 U. S., 586. The sheriff's justification for holding the prisoner m the warrant of the trial justice. That warrant is i?iued on an affidavit, with a distinct, direct averment that ?ne A. Silver, at his store in the city of Orangeburg, in the county and State aforesaid, on the 21st of Jalv, 1894, did unlawfully sell intoxicating liquors, to-wit, one pint of whiskey, without a permit, in violation of law. The warrent recites that whereae, complaint has been made before me that A. Silver has unlawfully violated the dispensary act in selling intoxicating liquor, and without permit, certificate or Slate license, orders his apprehension. The Supreme Court of South Carolina in McCullough vs, Brown, Mss., 1894, has held that so much of the dispensary law of 1892 as forbids the sale of intoxicating liquors without a license is not in conflict with the State Constitution. Snnr?m? flnnrhnf the United States in an unbroken current of decision has settled beyond question that ' intoxicating liquors are within the control of the police powers of the Stales, and that State statutes regulating sales under license, and even prohibiting sales altogether, are not in conflict with any provision of the Constitution of the United Slates or any law made thereun? der. Were the petitionei a citizsn of this State or of the United States, this court could not intefere with this prosecution. Nor does the fact that he is a Russian subject change the situation. He Is charged with an ofl'ense, not because he is an alien, but beeluse, being in trade in South Carolina, he had violated her laws. Coming to the State an alien, do ing business thereiu, he is subject to the laws of the State, and mast render the 3ame obedience to them as is required citizens. Hi& alienage gives him no exemption and no treaty cculd put him dii a better footiag than a citv.en. lie lannot be discriminated against because jf his alienage. There cau be no discrimination in his favor because of his alienage. Let the prisoner, A. Silver, be re nanded to the custody of the sherifl ot Jrangcburg county, and his petition be md it is hereby dismissed. Charles II. Simonton, Circuit Judge. The Columbia Slate says wnen asked ,he view the State took of the decision, dttoruey General Buchanan said that ,he State construed the opinion to nean that there is nothing in the 1893 aw which is contrary to the Constitution of the United States. lie says, further, that the decision was just what ,he State has expected, Judge Simonton laving rendered practically the same decision in theCantini case. The State authorities regard the Federal constitutionality of the law settled so far as all r / the lower Feck:*! courts urs concerned.

C., Aug. 10.?The ! Piedmont Headlight, of last week published the following: The blackest and meanest negro in South Carolina, when arraigned, has a right to employ counsel, to face his accusers and enter a defence. The thought of arraigning, trying and condemning a man in secret counsel, and without his even knowing that he is on trial, or that a case has been made against him, is so repulsive to every sense of fairness and justice as to disgust our American people. And yet this is just what the State Alliance of South Carolina did in the case of the editor of the Piedmont Headlight. We received notification from that body that the charges we made against I). P. Duncan were to be investigated, or that our loyalty to the Order was questioned. So while we were in blissful ignorance of the fact that our arraignment was going on at Aiken, and while at our office, more than one hundred miles from the scene of the trial, we woke up one morning to read in a daily paper thrown at our -? i-L-.*. rr\ 1 riAnff uuur wjai me uuctijjes ui x.ju. vxauot agaiast Exchange Manager Dancan have been investigated that Duncan was "vindicated" and that Gantt expelled from the Alliance. Here we find this rapresentative organization of farmers, whose motto is "Equal rights to ali and special privileges to none," guilty of an act of despotism, tyranyand iDjustice such as was never before known in any civilized and Christian land. J Jut this crowning outrage does not stop here. The com mittee in that SCate Alliance, to which the charges against us were referred, brought in a report, in which they stated that "we find that the charges against Brother T. L. Gantt are not proven." But what did that Convention do? M. L. Donaldson, one of our bitterest enemies, and the man who went on to Chicago and worked for Grover Cleveland's nomination while we were opposing him and upholding our Alliance demands, and contending for the selection of a candidate in harmony with the people, arose in that ConventioD, and in a bitter speech exclaimed/'Great Godl.Not proven you say? Not proven!" and then went to demand that those resolutions be recommitted, and with instructions to make a report condemning us; and this was done: Since the days of Jeffries, when he made an unwilling jury burn Alice Liles at the stake, never was such an outrage as this perpetrated. That Alliance Convention was controlled by our political enemies?men who wanted strike us down because the paper that we edit stood in the way of their selfish ambition?and in order to do this they packed a committee upon us; and even when that committee, terroized by the outrage that they were chosen to perpetrate, wanted to evade the dirty work, its members were driven back into their room by the lash of sem? of Grover Cleveland's supporters and made to do their work over again. No. That Convention was composed of our political enemies, and presided over by a man who had gone into a Sunday caucus in Spartanburg and a disappointed candidate for Governor. Failing to silence or crush the Headlight, they aimed and assassin's dagger at us in tne aarK.anu uiesi.au uauic uu-1 seen and without warning. This action by the Spartanburg Sub-1 Alliance will be re-echoed by Ailiances throughout our Piedmont section. Our farmers are just and fair-minded, and will not remain silent and see a brother member persecuted and hounded down for no other reason than that he atands in the way of the ambition of certain office-seeking politicians, and te.lls the people the truth: Now, what will President Evans do? Our own Sub Alliance refuses to obey his despotic and tyrannical commands, and T. L. Gantt will continue to meet and affiliate with the Order. Will President Evans expel the Spartanburg Sub-Alliance? It is the only thing left. And we predict that after he is through with this lodge he will have many others in our own and other counties to deal with; and so the public will ba treated to the spectacle of a Sunday caucuser and would be Governor, acting on a small scale the Tycoon of Swat, and and with his tyranlcal hand tearing to pieces the organization that he is elected to build up. The issue is now clearly drawn between T. L. Gantt, a ! plain Alliance man, and W. D. Evans, I ?aa.:Ja?s1. fV?o Cfofo A llionpa I pitaiUCUli Ui VUO U.U1UUW. ,, ? | refuse to obey his commands and quit 1 the Order. Iq this determination the J sub-Alliance, of which we are a member. stands at our back. Xow, what is President Evans going to do about it? How is he going to help himself and vindicate his "authority V To remain silent will make him the laughing stock of the country. President Evans has issued hi3 pronunciamento expelling T. L. Gantt but T. L. Gantt refuses to be expelled, and his lodge declares its intention of continuing to receive and recognize him. So this Alliance Dictator, who assumes unto himself the right to try and condemn a member without the accused even being informed that he is under a charge and on trial, has now two horns of a dilemma placed in his hands. We are anxiously waiting for the next step to be taken by President Evans. A Narrow EscapbOf a Train. St. Louis, Mo, Aug. 6?The most remarkable feature of last night's attempt at train wrecking at Eureka, Mo, was the escape of the entire train and one hundred and eighty-three persons upon it from absolute destruction. The desperadoes, who were undoubtedly accomplices of the fellow with whom Express Messenger Ferguson had the fight, forced open a car of dynamite that stood on the sidetrack below the station at Eureka and stole two big dynamite cartridges that were intended for heavy blasting in quarries and mines. Each cartridge was capable of tearing to pieces tons of solid rock. They were placed by the dastardly bandits ontbe rails, the intention heing to destroy the train and piundrr the richly laden express car, and probably the passenger?. T * ~ -- ?4-V?r\ f ro 1 n jli is a muauie Luau iuc cuuic uoiu wag not hurled to destuction, for the miscreants who attempted to wreck it placed the cartridges within a few feet of a car which contained ten tons of dynamite. Then they secreted themselves and waited for the train that was due to arrive a few minutes before 10 1 o'clock. The train left St. Louis at 8.30 and was only a few minutes behind time, the delay having been caused by the shooting of the express messenger by one of the robbers. When the forward wheels of the engine rolled on the cartridges there was a teriiic explosion, which lifted the 1 machine from the tracks and tore the : massive pilot from the bolts riveted to ; the engine. All the forward part of the 1 machine was wrecked and twisted,"and llthough it was able to carry the train ; i few miles beyond, it was so badly ; wrecked that another engine had to be ; procured. The entire train was severe- J ly shaken, the windows broken and the ' packages of letters thrown from the boxes in the mail car. It is wonderful how the carrload of dynamite escaped. The explosion tore ] a great hole in the earth, wrested the \ rails from their fastening and Hung the ] ties in every direction. It tore open ' ODe side of the dynamite car and ex- < posed to view tons of the powerful ex- < plosive, while for some unaccountable \ reason this vast amount of dynamite, < with eiergy enough to blow an entire ] city of* the earth, did not explode. If I it had not a person in all those one hun- 1 dred and eighty three passengers would < haveescaped. " < i ( --- ?MMMWMM?SMaPMi THE CAMPAIGN ENDEDThe Columbia Scate Name* the Winning Tlck-r.

As a result of the campa^n and the recent meeting eftbe Sligh executive AA " f eo o ir ' A C na Anr l/Uiumiiiioc, it is jucbby ctoy w vv ?? that b7 this lime next week the gubernatorial contest, a3 far a9 Mess-s. El lerbe and Tindal are concerned, will be no longer a matter cf interest. It is pretty senerally conceded lhat the two gentleman earned are now ilaomed to defeat in the S:aie ccnventiou next Thursday, and ihafc Evan3 is to be the Rsform nominee. If such a result comes about, then the long-fought battle narrows to a square Gght in fie general primary between Dr Pope and Jahn Gary Evans. Dr. Pope's name does not go before the Reform primary. If such i3 th? outlook?and EvaDs' friends claim that their is now no longer a doubt of his receiving tte nominot.irn thf>n hnfh TPindal an/1 "P.llArhft are barred from going any further. An entirely ne?y fi^ht will be oa. Evans' friends will have to baitie with Dr. Pope's friends, who will very likely decline to participate in the Reform primaries on Saturday. The vote on Saturday, therefore, will tell pretty well what Pope's strength is noL coasidering any other vote which may go to him, if there he any. At any rate Pope, under the circumstances named, will not be cut of the race by a good deal. He has made, it is understood, many friends recently by his action in kicking out of the traces. Now there is considerable doubt as to what EUerbe and Tindal will do. If they are going to kick oat of the traces they will have to do it by tomorrow night, for the Reform primaries take place Saturday. It the results of these primaries throughout the S'ate can b: ascertained An f\ f Mm ?kf A uu OAiuLuajr tug lcouu ui tuc u^a^v convention on Thursday next can be told. There is a good deal of silent dissatisfaction among the general primary advocates with regard to the Sligh committee's action. This may, or may not, develop into a sentiment strong enough to induce Tindal and Ellerbe to withdraw their pledges, already filed. An Evans man yesterday, leaving cut of the matter entirely any consideration of Pope's chances, said that the whole thing was going to result in the nomination and election of the following ticket, and if the element of doubt as to Ellerbe's course and Pope's primary race was removed, all would doubtless agrse with him: For Governor?John Gary Evans. Lieut. Governor?Dr. W. H. Timmerman. Attorney General?O. W. Buchanan. State Treasurer?W. T. C. Bates. Superintendent of Education?W. D. Mdjfisld. Comptroller General?A. W. Jonts. Secretary of State?D. H. TompkIn3. Adjutant and Inspector GeneralJohn Gary Watts. Now as to the efleet of the campaign on the Senatorial Oght, Tillman's friends claim that he comis cut of the stump battle stronger than ever. The geueral opinion, however, is that the stump work has been moie beneficial to Bailer than to Tillman. Butler's friends regard his chances as much better than at any time heretofore. As to the effect of the campaign on the dispensary outlook, it is said by one who oaght to know, tha'. Governor Tillman is fully satisfied, by his tests of the crowds at the meetings on the dis penaary, that the great body of the people demand the dispeosarj; that he expects them to send a legislature here which will re-enact the law and pas* a metropolitan police law, forcing a laigs number of such police on all cities wherewith to ecfjrce the law, and that they will enact a law providing f.>r changes of venue in liquor cases.?State. A Teirlble Tragedy. Columbia, s. C., Aug. 8.?Yesterday morning about two miles from the city a young son of Mr. Henry Williams was shot and killed by his brother. The children were 7 and 5 years old respectively. It was a strange case and no explanation of the reason why the deed was done is given. The facts are as follows: Mrs. WilliamB left her house and went out into the adjourning woods for some purpose and left her three children a.t the house. They were aged 7, 5 and 3years. When she returned she was horrified to find the five-yearold child dead. Blood was pouring from its ear. She screamed at the sight, which brought in some neighbors. The seven-yearold child on being questioned said that he haci taken a nail and while his little brother was lying on the floor he had put it in his ear and stuck it with his hand. He did not mean to drive the naiiici, he said. This explanation was not at all satifactory, but the little fellow stuck to it for a long time. In the meantim e Coroner Roach was notifled and Dr. Green was sent for. The Doctor saw at once that the fatal wound had not been made by a nail. The boy was questioned again and after much persuasion and some threats he finally said that he had gone to a trunk, took out a pistol, put it to his brother's ear and lirea. The little threeyear-old child in its baby way confirmed that statement. Absolutely no reason is glyen as tc why the child shot his brother, andit is supposed that he really did not know what he was doing when he put the fatal weapon to his brother's ear and fired. Coroner Roaeh empaneled a jury and a verdict was rendered in accordance with the above facts. The boy being only 7 years old is clearly not .-;uu r-_ resyuuaiuie iui tuo auo. Church and State, The Columbia Register,of last Thursday?, says a convention or the leading colored clergymen and laymen of the State assembled Wednesday in the well known Calvary Baptist Church in that city. All denomination were represented. The purpose of the gathering wss to discuss the imperative necessity of dividing the union of church and State educational interests as exemplified in Claflin University. After a full and spirited discussion of the principles at issue, and a formal series of recommendations by a duly appointed committee, it was decided to appoint two committees; one to properly present the whole question before the representative bodies of the various colored denominations of the State, and the other, consisting of Kev. H. M. Raiford, Prof. J. N. Cardoza, Kev. P. II. Coit. Prof. J. II. Wilson, Kev. D. C. 13aum, Prof. J. W. Morris and Rev. W. D. Chappell to present a memorial to the State Legislature. There was opposition to the action of the meeting and a number of persons, who consider it inexpedient, separated themselves from the main body and decided to present a counter memorial to the Legislature. Among those who do not agree with the majority are: Rev. J. II. Johnson, John A. Barr, C. J. Carroll, D. II. Moorer, P. C. Parks, J. R. .Bulkley, John H. Fordham, J. S.

Charga. Columbia, S. C., August 8.?The State Reform Executive Committee met last night in the Senate chamber at the Capitol. The committee had been called together by Chairman Sligh under a call published a few days i go, in which were set forth the reasons for bis action. It was brought about bv statements made to. and letters received by hi ac, calling his attention to the fact that the plan as adopted by the committee at its first meeting was unsatisfactory to a large number of Reformers. These statements and letters were so numerous as to bring Mr. SUgh to the conclusion that perhaps for tbe sake of harmony and unity in the Reform ranks the committee should be called together to ascertain the extent of the reported dissatisfaction, and to amend tbe plan in such particulars as would bring about a better state of feeling among Reformers in regard thereto. The committee was called to order by Chairman Sligb, and the following members answered to their nam3s when the roll was called by Secretary Otts: Abbeville?D. H. Magill. Aiken?J. T. Gaston.

Quite a crowd waited in the lobby to learn what they could of the proceedings from such members as strayed out now and then for a breath of air, or to converse "with friend3 on the outside. The session was loDg and the debates were earnest and excited. The speakers could be heard throunh the glass doors, but not distinct enough to convey an intelligent understanding of their remarks. All of the memt rs participated in the debate, some of them taking the floor several different times. Larry Gantt vehemently opposed any chanaing of the plan. His speech was sufficiently distinct to show that he was utterly opposed to anything of the kind and was,heard to say at Its conclusion "that'if we do so now the people will think that we are a set of babies and jackasses." lie was applauded by tne members who agreed with him. John Lyles.of FairGeld, offered some resolutions declaring for a general primary. He made a strong speech in favor of the same and was warmly applauded. Member after member of the Committee tnnfr the flnnr and qnnlre fnr and against the resolutions. What the tenor of their remarks were could only be judged from the expression of the faces of the members whose opinion on the subject was known. As a substitute for Mr. Lyle's motion Dr. J. Wm. Stokss introduced the following: Whereas, this committee recognizes that the plan adopted in April and reiterated in July is not perfect, but after full consideration for all interest, preference, circumstances and condition that confront the Reform movement, it is the best that we have been able to devise; if faithfully carried out the plan will compass the object in view when the committee was organized?namely, the nomination of a candidate for Governor who shall be the choice of the Reformers. Unsolved, That we deem it inexpedidei.t and unwise to abandon the plan already agreed upon. The substitute was adopted, it is understood bv a very decided msjority. A long discussion, participated in by neariy all present, ensued upon various propositions to adopt additional rules, and to explain the meaning of certain doubtful terms contained in the plan.

Cleveland, Aug. 7.?Lake Shore Express train Xo. 12 arrived from the West and puffed into the Union station this morning, after having encountered a most thrilling experience on the plains of Indiana. An attempt was made last night to hold up the train at Kessler upon the identical spot that the twin tiroa hoM nn fall Thft train was just approaching a split swich at Xessier, when the engineer noticed that the switch was turned so as t? run the train on the siding. A big obstruction of ties and lumber was piled upon the siding a few rods ahead of his engine. The obstruction did not appear to be impassable and the engineer put on all the steam and dashed through the pile passing safely on the main track through the switch at a high rate of speed. As the train passed the obstuction the engineer noticed a group of masked men and as the engine cleared the track of all obstacles the wouldbe highwaymen fired several shots into the train, none of which, however, took effect. The Uaited States ex oress car was attached to the train and had on board a large amount of money. It is thought that this was known to the desperadoes who attempted to hold up tho train ThAir riisxnnnint.mfinf. in carrying out their plans of stopping the train was evincsd on their firing shots when they saw that their plans had been foiled by the boldness of the engineer iD dashing through the heap of ties upon the track.
