Dr Tslmfjp'a IutertstJtg I> Kci-mse Through the Prf ss Krcoki.yn. Julv 8.?Rev. Dr. Tal? mage, who is now nearing the antipodes on his round the world journey, has selected as the subject for his sermon through the press lodav 4'The Kusticln the Palace," the text being taken from Genesis xlv, 28, il[ will go and see him before I die." Jacob had long since passed the hundred year milestone. In those times people weie disiinguishe.-l for longevity. In the centuries afterward persons lived to great age. Galen, the most celebrated physician of his iime, took so little of h:3 own medicine that he lived to 140 years. A man of undoubted veracity on the witness stand in England swore that he remembered an event 150 before. Lord Bacon speaks ot a cccntess who bad cut three sets of teeth and died at 140 years. Joseph Creie of Pennsylvania lived 140 years. In 1857 a book was printed containing the names of 37 persons who lived 140 years anatne names of 11 persons who lived 150 years. Among the grand old people of whom we have record was Jacob, the shepherd of the test. But be had a bad lot of boys. They were jealous and ambitious and every way unprincipled. Joseph, however, seemed to be and exception, but he had been gone many year3 and the probability was that he was dead. As sometimes now in a house ycu will find kept at the table vacant chair, a plate, a knife, a tork, for some deceased member of thQ fanuly, so Jacob kept in his heart a place for his beloved Joseph. There sits the old man, the flock of 140 years in their flight having alighted long enough to leave the marks ot their claw on forehead and cheek and temple. His loDg beard snows down over his chest. His eyes are somewhat dim, and he can see farther when they are closed than when they are open, for he can see clear back into the time when beautiful Rachel, bis wile, was living, and his children shook the oriental abode with their merriment. The centenarian is sitting dreaming over the past when he hears a wagon rumbling to the front door. He gets up and goes to the door to see who has arrived, and his long absent sons from Egjpt come in and announce to him that Joseph, instead of being dead, is living in an Egyptian palace with all the investiture of prime minister nest to ibe king in the mightest empire of all the world! The news was too sadden and too glad for fie old man, and his cheeks whiten, and he has a dszed look, and his staff falls out of his band, and he would have dropped had not the sons caught him and led him to a lounge and put cold water on his face and fanned him a little. Ia that halt delirium the old man mumbles something about bis son Joseph. He says: "You don'i mean Joseph, do you?my dear son, who has been dead po long? Ycu don't mean Joseph, do you?" But after they had fully resucitated him and the news was confinned the tears begin their winding way down the crossroads of the wrinkles, and the sunken lips cf the old man quiver, and he hriDgs his bent fingers together as he says: "Joseph is yet alive. I will go and see him before I die." It did not take the old man a great while to get ready, I warrant you. He put on the best clothes that the shepherd's wardrobe could afford. He got ? - 1 - "1 1 it TL J. 1 1 lnio ine wagon, ana mougn me ageu are cautious ancl like to ride slow the wagon did not get along fast enough for this old man, and when the wagon with the old man met Joseph's chariot coming down to meet him, and Joseph go' cut of the chariot and got into the wagon and threw his arms around his father's neck, it, wa3 an antithesis of royalty and rusticity, of simplicity and pomp, filial s Section and paternal love, which leaves U3 so much in doubt about whether we had better laugh or cry that we do both. So Jacob kept the resolution of the text, "I will go and see him before I die." What a strong and unfailing thing is parental attachment! Was it not almoet time for Jacob to forget Joseph? The hot suns of many summers had blazed on the heath; the rirer Nile had overflowed and receded, overflowed and receded again and again; the seed had been sown and harvest reaped. Stars rose and set. Years of plenty and years of famine had passed on, but the love of Jacob for Joseph in my text is overwhelmingly dramatic. Oh, that is a cord that is not snapped, though pulled on by many decades! Though when the little child expired the parents may not have been more than 25 y ears of age and now they are 75. yet the vision of the cradle, and the childish face, and the first utterances of the infantile hps are fresh today, in spite of the passage of a half century. Joseph was as fresh in Jacob's memory as ever, though at 17 years of age the boy had disappeared from the old homestead. I found in our family record the story of an infant that had died 50 years before, and I said to my parents, "What is this record, and what does it mean?" Their chief answer was a long, deep sigh. It was yet to them a very tender sorrow. What does that all mean? Why, it means our childreD departed are ours v yet, and that cord of attachment reaching across the years will hold us until it brings us together in the palace, as Jacob and Joseph were brought together. That is one thing that make old people die happy. They realize it is reunion with tnose from whom they have loDg been seperated. I am often asked a3 pastor, and every pastor is asked the question, "will my children be children in heaven and forever children ?" Weil, there was no doubt a great chaDge in Joseph from the time Jacob lost him and the time when Jacob found him?between the boy 17 years ot age and the man in midlife, his forehead developed with the great business of state, but Jacob was glad to get Joseph back anyhow, and it did not make much difference to the old man whether the boy locked older or looked younger. And it will be enough joy for that parent if he can get back that son, that daughter, at the gate of heaven, whether the departed loved one shall come a cherub or in full grown angelhood. There must be a change wrought by that celestial ciimrte and by those i supernal 3 ears, hut it will only be from 1 loveliness to mors loveliness, and from : health to more rRchaut health. 0 parent, as ycu thiol: of the darling ] pantina and white in membraneous 1 croup, I want ycu to know it will be 1 gloriously bettered in that land where ' there has never been a death and where [ all the inhabitants will live on in the ' great future as God! Joseph was Joseph , colwitfcstand the palace, and your child j will be your child notwithstanding all , the raining splendors of everlasting 1 noon, What a thuilin - visit wa3 I that of the eld shepherd to the prime minister, Joseph! I sec the < old countryman seated in the palace looking arcund at the mirrors, and the 1 fountains, and the carved pillars, and ' ob, bow he wishes that Rachel, his wile was alive and she could have ccme there j with bitn to see their son in this great ! house! "Oh," says the o:d man within j himself, "I do wish Rachel could be here to see all this!" ! I; I visited at the farmhouse of tie fa- i ther cf Millard Fillmore when the eon : was president ot the United States and I the cctegeDarian farmer entertained me J until 11 o'clock at night, telling me i what great thiDgs ho say in his son's ; house at Washington, and what Daniel , Webster said to him, and how grandly 1 Millard treated hi? lather in the White , House. The old man's face was illumined with the story until almost the -j midnight. lie bad just been visiting his ; eon at the capital. * And I suppose it < was something of the same joy that 1 thrilled the heart cf the old shepherd as : he stood in the palace of the prime Dim later. 1 It 13 a great day with you when your ! old parents come to visit you. Your little children stand around with great wide open eyes, wondering how anybody ; could be so old. The parents cannot stay many days, fcr they are a little i restless, and especially at nightfall, be- 1 cause they sleep better in their own 1 bed, but while they tarry you somehow '< feel there is a benediction in evervrocm in the house. They are a little feeble, j and ycu make it as easy as vcu can for them, and ycu realize they will proba- ' bly not visit you very often?perhaps ' never again Ycu go to their room after j they bave retired at night to see if the , light3 are properly put out, for the old . people understood candle and lamp better than the modern apparatus for illu- j mination. In the mornisg, with real j interest in their health, you ask them i bow they rested last night, Joseph, in the historical scene of the ; text, did not think aoy more of his father than you do of your parents. The . probability is, before they leave your j house they half spoil your children with kindness. Grandfather and grandmother are more lenient and indulgent to ( your children than they were with ycu. And what wonders or revelation in me bombezine pocket cf the one and the j sleeve of the other. Blessed is that 1 home where Christian parents coaie to 1 visit! Whatever may have been the style of architecture when they came, it 1 is a palace before they leave. If they ; visit you 50 times, the two most memo- 1 rable visits will be the first and the last. ( Those two pictures will fcaDg in the hall of your memory while memory lasts ; and you will remember just how they looked, and where they sat, and what i they said, and at what figure of the car- i pet, and at what doorsill they parted < with yen, giving you the final goodbye. : Do not be embarrassed if your father come to town and he have the manners of the shepherd, and if your mother come to town and there be in her hat no sign of costly millinery. The wife of the Emperor Theocosius said a wise thing when she said, "Husbands, remember wbat ycu lately were, and re. member what you are, and be thankful," By this time you all notice wbat kindly provision Joseph made for his father, Jacob. Joseph did not say: "I can't have the old man around this place. How clumsy he would look climbing up these marble stairs and waiting over these mosaics! Then he would be putting his hands upon some of these frescoes. People would wonder where that old greenhorn came from. He would shock all the Egyptian court with his manners at table. Besides that he might get sick on my hands, and he might be querulous, and he might talk to me as though I were only a boy, when I am the second man in all the realm. Of course he must cot suffer, and it there is famine in his country?and I hear there is?I will send some provisions, but 1 can't take a man from Padanaram and introduce him into this polite Egyptian court. What a nuisance It is to have poor relations!" Joseph did not say that but he rushed out to meethi3 father with perfect abandon of affection and brought him up to the palace and introduced him to the emperor aud provided for all the rest of the father's day3, and nothmg was too good for the old man while living. And when he was dead, Joseph, with military escort, took his lather's remains to the family cemetery. Would God all children were as kind to their parents! If the father have large property, an d he be wise enough to keep it iu in his I r,Arv>ck Trill Ka f.acryppjor! )ivr fViA | UYYli ug n *** w vy ? vuv heirs, but how often it is when the son finds his father in famine, as Joseph found Jacob in famine, the young people make it very hard lor the eld man! They are so surprised he eats with a knife instead of a fork. They arc chagrined at his antediluvian habits. They are provoked because he cannot hear as well as he used to, and when he ask3 ft over again, and the son has to repeat it, he bawls in the eld man's ear, UI hope you hear that!" How long he must wear the old coat or the old hat before they get him a new one! How chagrined they are at his independence of the English grammar! How long he hangs on! Seventy years and not gone ye!.! Seventy five years and not gone yet! Eighty years and not gone yet! Will he ever go? They think it is of no use to have a doctor in his last sickness, and go up to the drug store, and get a dose of something that makes him worse, and economise on a coffin, and beat the undertaker down to the last point, giving a note for the reduced amount which they never pay. I have officiated at obsequies o aged people where the family have been 30 inordinately resigned to providence that I felt like taking ray text from Proverbs, uThe eye that mocketh at its father and refuseth to obey its mother, the ravens ol the valley shall pick it out, and the yGung eagles shall eat it." In other words, such an ingrate ought, to have a Hock af crows for pallbearers! I congratulate you if you have the honor of providing for aged parents. The blessing of the Lord God of Joseph and Jacob will be oil you. I rejoice to remember that, though my father lived in a plain hcu3e the most of his days, he died in a maasion provided by ihe filial piety of a son who had achieved a fortune. There the octogenarian sat and the servants waited on him, and there were plenty oi carriages to convev him, and a bower in which to sit on long summer afiesnoons, dreammgof the past, and there wa3 not a room in the he urn where he was not welcome, and there were musical instruments oi all sorts to regale him, and when life had passed tbc neighbors came out and expressed all honor possible and carried him to the village Macbpelah and put him down beside the Rachel with whom he had lived more than ball a century. Share \cur successes with the old people. The probability is that the principles they inculcated achieved your fortuue. Give them a Christian percentage of kindly consider ? a -rrr-TvM.??ogimr 1 alien. L?,t Joseph divide with Jacob the pasture fields of Goshen and the glories of the Egyptian court. : And here I would like to sing the praises of the sisterhood who remain unmarried that they might administer to aged parents.

While other maidens < were in the cotillon they were dancing" . attendance upon rheumatism, and | spreading plasters for the lame back < of the septenarian, and heating catnip ] tea for insomnia. In almost every circle of our kindred ; there has been some queen of self sacrifice to whom jeweled hand after jeweled hand was offered in marriage, but who staid on the old place because of the sense of filial obligation until the health was gone and the attractiveness of personal presence had vanished. Brutal society may call such a one by a nickname. God calls her daughter, and heaven calls her saint, and I call her domestic martyr A half dozen ordinary woman have, not as much nobility as could be found in the smallest joint of the little finger of her left band. Although the world has stood 0,000 years, this is the first ! apotheosi3 of maidenhood, although in the the long line of those who have declined marri3ge that they might be qualified for some especial mission are the names of Anna Ross and Margaret Breckinridge and Mary Shelton and A n r> o VthoruinrO ptlH f JprtrfMan.l Wil * ~V.

John Lawrence, burned at the stake in Colchester, was cheered in the flames by his children, who said, "O God, strengthen thy servant and keep thy pormise!" And Christ in the hour of excruciation provided for bis old mother. Jacob kept his resolution, "I will go and see him before I die and a little while after we find them walking the tesselated floor of the palace, Jacob and Joseph, the prime minister proud of the shepherd. 1 may say in regard to the most of you that your parents have probably visited you for last time or will soon pay you such a visit, and I have wondered if they will ever visit you in the king's palace. "Oh," you say, "I am in the pit of sin!" Joseph was in the pit. "Oh," you say, "1 am in the prison of mine iniquity!" Joseph was once in prison. "Oh," you say, "I didn't have a fair chance. I was denied maternal kindness!" Joseph was denied maternal attendance. "Oh," you say, T am far away from the land of my nativity!" Joseph was far from home. "Oh," you say, "I have been betrayed and exasperated!" Did not Joseph's brethren sell him to a passing Ishmaelitish caravan? Yet God brought him to that emblazoned residence, and if you will trust his grace in Jesus Christ you, too, will be empalaced. Oh, what a day that will be when the old folks come from an adjoining mansion in heaven and flnd you amid the alabaster pillars of the throneroom and living witn the King! They are coming up the steps now, and the epauleted guard of the palace rushes l'n and says, "Your father's coming, your mother's coming!" And when under the arches of precious stones and on the pavement of porphyry you greet each other the scene will eclipse the meeting on the Goshen highway, when Joseph and Jacob fell on each other's neck and wept a good while. iiut, oh, how changed the old folks will be! Their cheek smoothed into the flesh of a little child. Their stooped posture lifted into immortal symmetry. Their foot now so feeble, then with the sprightlines of a bounding roe, as they shall say to you, "A spirit passed this way from earth and told us that you were wayward and dissipated after we left the world, but you have repented, our prayer has been answered, and you are here. And as we used to visit you on earth before we died now we visit you in your new home after cur ascension."

And then they will talk over their earthly anxieties in regard to you, and the midnight supplications in your behalf, and they will recite to each other the old Scripture passage with which they used to cheer their staggering faith,"! will be a God to thee and thy seed after thee." Oh, the palace, the palace, the palace! That is what Bichard Baxter called "the saints' everlasting rest." That is what John Bunyan called the "Celestial City." That is Young's "Night Thoughts" turned into morning exultations. That is Gray's ".Elegy In a Churchyard" turned to resurrection spetacle. That is the "Cotter's Saturday Night" exchanged for the cotter's Sabbath morning. That is the shepherd of Salisbury plains amid the docks on the hills of heaven.

AUG gicauest excitement prevails in Miners Mills three miles north of here, owing to the burning ot the Moody gospel tent. The tent was being pitched in various portions of the Wyoming valley for the past month, and by an alliance of all the clergymen and united chorus choirs together with the personal efforts of Moody and Sanky. Major Whittle, Mr. Bliss, Mr. Stebbins and a dczen other assistants, several hundred people have been led to the churches.

On motion ot Colonel Stokes of Colleen a committee was appointed to present the following memorial to the Legislature: Whereas the Legislature in its wisdom and liberality at its last session suspended the collection of taxes in the 3torms swept region of our State for the iiscal year 1893, and extended the time for the payment of the same to the fall of 1894; whereas the distruction of the property was greater and the scope of territory far exceeded in extent, injury to property and damage to crops, so that our people were reduced in a great many instances to want and absolute destitution, depending upon the aid of others for meaDsof support the past j-ear; whereas the action of the Legislature was only partial in the sense of relief; therefore, be it ltesolved, That it is the sense of this Board that the said taxes of 1893 should be remitted altogether, and that a committee of our body be appointed to memorialize the Legislature upon the subject of relief Indicated and any kindred matter. The following gentlemen compose the committee: Theron Earle, Greenville; W. 1). Scarboro, Sumter; F. I\ Hardee, Beaufort; J. E. Fettigrew, Florence: Dr. H. Bier. Charleston. The following resolution offered by Colonel Stokes was adopted: Whereas, there is some misunderstanding in relation to the scope of duties of this body in respect to personal property, and the right of appeal as to where it vests the appellate court as to the special subject of taxation, including banking property of a personal nature, and character; therefore be it Resolved, That in the opinion of our Board that all appeals by the taxpayer can only be from the Board of Assessors to the County Board of Equalization, which Board has cognizance of the subject matter and its decision is final. That there is an underlying principle of law that the right of the State to appeal does not exist. 'the gentlemen who composed the Board have performed a work of great importance. The work was hard and the strain severe. They deserve the thanks and commendation of the people for the thorough and satisfactory manner with which it was done. They were all glad wrhen their labors were completed and nearly all of them left for home on the first train.?Register. Maay Lives Lost l>y Earthquake. Constantinople, July 11.?Four fresh shocks of earthquake were felt here today. Up to this morning mauyhou3es have fallen at Stamboul. At (.'rand Bazaar, the jewellers' quarter fell this morning, occasioning the greatest confusion. The merchants fled in terror, leaving their valuables behind them. Many shop-keepers and passers-by were buried beneath the ruins. It is impossible as yet to give the number of people killed and mjured, but it is known that over 150 people are buried beneath the debris. The Regie tobacco factory and other houses at JDjouvali have been seriously damaged and several persons have been killed in that quarter. The shock was very severe at the Princes Island. At Prinkipo the Orthodox church and many elegant houses and villas were destoyed. In Constantinople four houses fell and a nunber of others were damaged. Five people were Killed. At Galatea ten were killed and great damage was done to properly. At the village of Stefano the Catholic church and monastery fell, burying eleven persons beneath its ruins. From nearly all the village in the vimcity came similar re ports, except from about the Bosphorus where the damage was slight. Public buildings generally escaped. Xo news is to be had from the provinces, a3 the wires are all down. It is reported that the village of Adabazaar has been completely wiped out of existence. Xo English or American victims are reported from any part of the earthquake-shaken district. Many houses have collapsed, including several foreign villas in Soythe and Missi, where four persons were killed. Oa the Island of Halki nearly all the houses were wrecked. A portion of the Ottoman Xaval College fell, killing six people and injuring several others. At Monastir the Orthodox church and a portion of the seminary fell, killing one of the priests and iDjuiing several others. On the Island of Autigon all the buildings except the monasteries were wrecked. Kace Klot. Scottdale, Pa., July 9.?One hundred armed negroes marched into Scottdale today. They carried revolvers and clubs. When Burgess Kobinson ordered them to disperse they opened lire on him. Then Burgess called a number of citizens to his assistance and a general riot resulted. Tbe nesroes ran pursued by 1,000 citizens. Fully 200 shots were lired. Two ne groes were shot, one fatally and others were badly beaten. They escaped to Fayette county and went to M<HJlure's Works, where they are said to be recruiting forces, preparatory to making an attack on the towD. The wildest excitement prevails. The JJurgess has asked the citizens to arm themselves to repel the anticipateu attack. One of the negroes who was shot in the head was brought to Scottdale Threats of lynching are heard on all 3ldes. The .Sons of Veterans, armed with rifles, have been called out and are on guard at the lockup. The negroes are headed by Sanford white, superintendent of the McClure Coke Company. They are now at the borough limits an"c an armed body of citizens have just gone to meet them. A battle is expected in a short time. r BHBBHHIBEBBBHBQBDEBBHSBnHKSBEUSMQBSB HE IS VERY MAD. i WADDILL, GIVES THE GOVERNOR A PIECE OF HIS MIND. Ho Sny? a Great Many Hani Thing;*: About Tillman?He Was Once a Friend of ihe Governor'*, but Now Ho Is a Hitter Enemy. Comjmbi, S. CM -July 11.?The following letter explains itself: To the Public. A few days ago Governor Tillman cowardly attempted to hold me up to the scorn of the people of my country. T wa3 denied the opportunity to reply to this charge oi his The Governor denied calliuir me by name, but his friends and coat-tail swingers did it for him. 1 had information of the matter the day before, hence he is guilty of false hood and cowardice in the same breath. My former advocacy of Tillman and prominence in Alliance work and present position cause me to become an oh. ject of Tillman's hate and vindictiveness. 1 wish to retire from active partici. pation In politics, but before 1 do I want to put myself right before the people of Darlington county and the State at large. Governor Tillman charges mc with being in the pay of Wall street. I sell llour for J. A. O. Moore, broker, Darliugton, and one of Tillman's best friends. 1 am also ageDt for the Home Supply Association of Chicago. Because 1 will no longer worship the false and ugly God, Tillman, I am to be slandered by this selfish, mean fraud; for he is nothing but a fraud, a traitor to the Reform Movement and to the Alliance. One of the first acts of treachery was to the Reformers of Darlington county in making an appointment which was in violation of his solemn pledge made in his first address at this place in 1890 and reiterated to several gentlemen in his office in Columbia. Then violation after violation of his pledges to the Alliance at Spartanburg in 1891, and May convention, 1892. Tillman is in the inter est and I teiieve, in tne pay ci ram-1 many Hall. Tillman denies voting tor j Hill at Chicago. I don't believe he can prove it, and, if he does, he can not disprove hi3 advocacy of Hill before the convention at Chicago, for he took the delegation (all that he could influence) one night to Tammany Wigwam, where we weie introduced to Croker, Bourke Cockran, Cummiogs, et, a!, wined and cigared Tillman, and it he gets to the Senate he will only have Hill to welcome him. He has vilified and abused Populists, Democrats, and republicans alike. Tillman wrote one ot his henchmen here that I was traveling in Elgefleld ta the interest of General Butler. General' Butler wa3 kind to me in the war and I prefer Butler to Tillman, thereby no principle involved. Butler is an honorable, brave soldier and an old soldier knows how to meet such a man. Experience of four years, often in contact with Tillman has lead me to judge him a cold, selfish, cruel and cowardly maD. I thought at the time that I saw evidence of his cowardice at Florence in 1892, and so stated to a hw friends at the time, and I have seen more evidence of his cowardice at Chester and Outs. If the Alliance of South Carolina will support such a man, who plainly tells them why they can do so, I, for one, will draw the line right here and say I will support Butler until a simonpure Allianceman is put out. If the true Ailiancemeu of Darlington county will allow an office holder, coat-tail swinger, dependent on Tillmau, to carry them into a packed caucus to pu3h aside true and tried Alliancemen for a shyster law. yer, an eleventh hour convert, why they can do if, but I will oppose such methods and right such a candidate. One word to the true one gallu3 boys who followed Tillman on so blindly and who swallow every word he says. If you, the poor tenaot white farmers, who rent lands and to whom Governor Tillman is so tond of appealing, if you lived iu Edgefieled near Governor Tillman's tenantry place, and wanted land of him, you could not get it. lie has not a white tenant, all are negroes and his neighbors say that he will not have a white man oa his place. Any farther information on this line will be furnished on application to D. C. Bullock, Esq., (farmer,) Ninety-Six, S. C, Ha is a man ol integrity and high standing, a descendant oflt^vo[ lutionary ancestors, and lives on laud of Sires who fought in 177G at Ninety-Six. In conclusion 1 ask the Reformers of Darlington county, what has Tillman done for ycu? Has he out of his abundance, contributed one cent to anything here? Our paper went down; did he ever pay his subscription? lias any Reform enterprise or work every gotten a cent from Ben Tillman; and in the least of the epithets cast upon him, so justly, cannot I add one more any say stingy Ben Tillman? Who will follow longer a 8helfi3h, cruel, cowardly and stingy man, however able he may be? In the end he will disappoint us. John M. Wadihll. Darlington, S. C., July 7. Two IJrolhers Execaicd. It A LEIGH, X. C., July 13.?Two brothers, Tom and Calvin Coley, white men, aged 20 and 22, were Hanged today at Louisburg, the execution being private. The rope used to hang Calvin had been used on seven prior occasions during the last ten year3. The condemned men were unable to read or write, had never been to school nor inside of any church. They refused to make any statement but indicated that they had not intended to commit murder. Two ministers visited them in the jail, and they expressed the hope of being forgiven for their sins. Injuns, 1892, these men and Charles Tucker, a Jewish peddler, met at the house of two negro women in Tranklin county, X. C., and all drank. Calvin Coley incited his brother, and thev killed Tucker with an axe and carried his body into a neighboring thicket and covered it with brush. Finding iu his * - ? 4- *- ~ pacK sioi4;iney weui lu murium. A year afterwards the crime was discovered, the entire party was arrested, the women turned State's evidence and the men were convicted. An immense crowd gathered around the jail today to see the execution, which, however, was strictly private. The men met their fate without emotion. The neck of Tom was broken by the fall; Calvin died in eighteen minutes of strangulation. Troops Ditched. Sacramento, July 11.?The iirst train to leave Sacramento with troops was ditched on a trestle eight miles from Washington, Yolo county. The rT>ran)ro:l train Tiraa hnrtnH ff?r San Fran TTiCVXXtU Vi.C4l.LX H Uvj ? Cisco, Itegular troops were stationed on the engine and upon each car. lieports differ, one is that fish plates had been removed from the rails, allowing them to spread, and another is that the timbers of a trestle had been sawed nearly through causing it to collapse under the weight of the train. The engine and four cars went down. There was no shooting at the train as first reported. The killed are .Engineer Clarke and privates Burns, Lubbarden and Clarke. Private Dugan lost both arms and is likely to die. All belonged to battery L, Fifth Artillery. Private Clarke was drowned. The others were crushed in the wreck. Another private named 6mith is tnissiDg. The disaster occurred only a short distance from Sacramento. Two companies of cavalry thoroughly skirmished the vicinity afterwards but made no captures and met with no resistance. The train was brought back to .Sacramento. STAND FROM UNDER.

IMPROVED CROP CONDITIONS. ; The Weekly IJniletln o! the Westher Rnd ( Crop*. < Columbia, S. 0.. July 11.?The fol- j 1 lowing i3 the weekly bulletin of the . I condition of the weather and crops j about the State for the past weeK, as ( issued yesterday by Observer JUuer of , the State weather service: > The weather during tlie past week j . favored the rapid growth of all crops and continued to aiford opportunity ' for repairing and planting minor food , I and forage crops, such as peas, pota- . I toes and turnips, and so forth, and the acreage cf such crops promises to 1 be the largest ever known in many sections. Such crops deserve greater . attention than is generally accorded them in the system of economy of the 5 Southern planters and farmers, and - together with vegetable and fruit gardens should more largely supplant strictly "money crops" than is at ; present the case. The increase in acreL age is, therefore, an encouraging sign. j The temperature for the week ranged below the normal, averaging about 4 degrees a day on the coast to about 1 , degree a day in the interior and wesj tern portion, and this with more than double the usual cloudiness has devel" oped a tendency in cotton to shed its 1 fruit in a few localities, ami favored . an almost too rapid growth of "weed" , everywhere. The rainfall was more general than heretofore and in the ' southeastern portions of the State was ' excessive to the point of serious im7 pairment of the crops. Portions of ' Pickens, Fairfield and Spartanburg - counties are comparatively dry and ) need rain. 2 Cotton made rapid growth and is i generally fruiting well, but the wet ground ha3 prevented ploughing to a r considerable extent and consequently ! some fields are becoming grassy. As . yet no material injury has been done t by the grass or lack of sunshinp, and . the crop is in fine condition over the whole State. It needs more sunshine to favor fruiting and to check its tendency to grow to weed. " Corn improved very much and even J that of early planting is responding to the pushing weather, although the - stalks of such corn are in many places i reported ''spindling". "Laying by" is - being delayed by the wet weather, but 0 will soon be general. Peas are still 1 being sown but seed are getting scarce. 3 Early sown a poor stand, that sown on ? stubble since the rain set in, growing nicely. Potato slips or vines in de* mand for settings, the planting of 1 which continues quite general. The melon crop falls below expectations, 3 being a small crop of small melons, al3 though some fine fields are reported. 2 Pice, tobacco, sorghum, potatoes and gardens as well as grasses all show r marked improvement over their condit tion 3 week 3go. 7 Farm work generally behind hand, . owing to rainy weather. The adverse conditions were washing rains in Sum' j ter and Aiken counties, and a severe a and destructive thunder stoim in Ab" beville, which besides damaging crops, killed considerable stock. There were ^ some high winds In various portions J of the State but the damage resultiug " was, even in the aggregate, nGt very e great.

Danville, 111., July 9.?Mrs. Mitchel Glennan and Miss Clara Jame3 were killed and one unknown man mortally " wounded and at Westville this afierl* noon by a volley fired over the heads of a crowd of rioting miners by a company of militia. The miners had been J* rioting in this vicinity since yesterday it afternoon. Daring last night a number a of freight cars were destroyed on the 1. Eastern Illinois yards by incendiary c tires. This forenoon a number of cars were derailed at Grape Creek on the j Sfv Ibyville branch. Where the wreck' ate had been cleared the ia-bound passt Lgertrain proceeded without molestation until Westville was reached. u When it stopped there it was surrounded by a crowd of miners and word was d telegraphed to Danville and a special 'e train with a company of State troops u started at once for the scene of trouble. ;t About one mile from Westville a large ,o crowd of miners had collected and upon i- the approach of the train bearing thel homon ur^rlilr?
