younger since the opening of the

Col. A. K. McClure, editor of the
Philadelphia Times, was interviewed by
! a reporter for the Denver News some
days ago. Here is what he said about
President Cleveland:
"The fact is that Mr. Cleveland is a
greater man than his party. Instead'of
I leading him, he does the . leading. I
think he is the best President we have
ever had, as strong and substantial as
any man could be. He doesen't fear, the
party, and, on the contrary, it feats him,
and so they have to let him lead. He
maps out his policy and the leaders of
Democracy adhere to its principles. He
permits no man to dictate to him, and
when once be has made up his mind that
a thing if right, no man can change it.
Don't construe my meaning to he that he
is obstinate, but simply that be is firm
after convincing himself that the stand
he assumes is justified by circumstances
and acts. He does not possess the mag?
netism or personal popularity of Mr.
Blaine, but he has that stability which
recommends him to business men. They
know that his administration is not as
brilliant as' that which possibly Mr.
-Blaine would give ns; they also know
that there is nothing erratic or loose
about it. I regard his first term as being
a conservative and substantial one, free
from any signs of weakness, and benefi?
cial to the country at large. He is not
governed by party demands, and does not
permit them to interfere with what he
regards to be his duty. Mr. Thurman
will add strength to the ticket, as he is
an able statesman and a man of good
soond principles." .
CRIMES AND CASUALTIES.
Union Bridge, -MdC, June 15.?John
Bowmans, colored, was taken from jail
here a little after one o'clock this morn?
ing by a band of twelve or fifteen colored
men, all masked, and carried to the out?
skirts of town, where he was strung by the
neck to a limb of a large tree. He mo
tioned to be let down and the rope was
slackened bo that he could speak. He
made good use of the opportunity, and,
slipping through the rope, jumped away
like a shot. The'lynch ere gave chase
and fired several shots after him, but
without effect He has not yet been
captured. Bowmans was arrested yester?
day for assaulting a blind colored man
and a colored girl. His motive was
jealousy.
Nobwich, Conn., June 13.?Old Tim
Williams, the Lebanon hermit, who has
lived alone upon a small farm amid un?
derbrush and thicket his entire life, was
yesterday found dead.- His place was
seldom visited owing to his eccentricities.
He was devoted to his small garden, his
chickens and his bees. These and a cat
.and a dog wercim only friends. Yes?
terday his oldest and largest hive of bees
swarmed upon a huge apple tree just
back of his hot Fearing that they
would escape him, the seventy-six-year
old man climbed the tree, a distance of
twenty-five feet. He fell to the ground,
stirring np the bees io his descent The
bees followed him down and completely
covered'him in their anger, stinging
him hundreds of times. .With one leg
broken, the cage torn from his face and
too weak to light the insects, he was
E" tactically at their mercy. They literal
j stung the 'old man to death. When
he was found the bees still swarmed on
j his body, which presented a pitiable
sight
Seymour, Ind., June 15.?Miss Mollie
Dinsmore, aged 18 years, a popular and
sprightly school-mistress, dismissed her
pupils for afternoon recess yesterday and
sat down in the school-room door to wit?
ness their sport. Suddenly a shrill alarm
sounded from the playground, and the
valiant school-ma'am rushed to the res?
cue. When she. reached her retreating
flock she was horrified to see a large
blacksnake bringing np the rear of the
retreating column. Armed only with a
parasol, she made a vigorous defense,
but the enraged reptile held its own and,
taking advantage of a sadden turn of
Miss Mollie to aus wer the call of one of
her pupils, it ran np her back, and in less
time than the story can be told it bad
tntwined its shining coils around her neck
so tightly that but for the timely assis?
tance of a young gentleman who- was
Sassing and promptly responded to the
rightened calls of the little ones she
would have strangled. The brave young
lady was prostrated by her fright and the
nervous shock, from which she has suf
fered'severely. The snake, when killed,
measured over fear feet in length. It
was .a black racer, a variety that is usual?
ly considered harmless, and this is the
first instance in which one of its kind i
has been known here to attack any
person.
Florence, S. O, June 16.?While sev?
eral boys were in bathing this afternoon at
Jeffrey's Creek, about two miles from
here, David Waters, a young man of this
place, was drowned. It appears he was
just learning to swim, and diving into
the water .where it was twenty feet deep
it is supposed his foot caught in something
under the water and he could not get to
the surface again. His body was not re?
covered until about two hours afterwards,
when bruises were found on his head ana
on one foot.
George's, S. C, Jane 13.?During a
thunder storm here this afternoon light?
ning struck the large two-story residence
of Prof M. 0. Conner and instantly killed
Miss Annie Brown, an estimable young
lady 22 years of age. Miss Brown was
an orphan from the Dean Swamp section
of Berkeley County, and had been with
Mrs. Conner only a few months. The
lightning first struck the comb of the
roof near the chimney, then ranging down
the side of the house completely splinter?
ed a window near where the young lady
was sitting. But the strange part of the
story is that an infant which was lying
in a cradle nearer the window than the
young lady, escaped without any injury.
St. Louis, June 16?A special from
Muskogee, I. T., says: The south-bound
Missouri, Kansas and Texas express was
robbed about 9 o'clock last night at
Virdigris bridge. From parties who were
on the train it is learned that the train
stopped at the bridge to put off some
baggage and-had just started to pull out
again when the engineer was covered by
a revolver and the express car was enter?
ed. The express messenger was taken by
surprise as it being a very warm night,
the side door was open. Before he could
close it two men entered the car and robb?
ed him of about $800 and one valuable
package. One shot was fired into the
mail car, the ballet passing through the
left arm of Charles Coltou, the mail
agent. Two shots were fired at the front i
of the smoking car, one going through
the right arm of Harry Byan, the train
butcher. The other struck a passenger
Ben C. Tarver in the left cheek, and
passing backwards broke his neck, caus?
ing instant ..death. The wounded and
dead were brought to thin place, but the
mail agent went on south. His was a
flesh wound. Deputy Marshal Tyson
and posse are preparing to give pursuit
as soon as they can cross the Arkansas
River. There were seven men engaged
in the robbery. No effort was made to rob
the passengers. The dead man's home
was in Rosebud, Texas. He is a single
man, and was going home from a trip to
Chicago. The leader of the robbers gave
his name as Capt. Jack. Some of them
were masked.
Atlanta, June 15.?Neal stark, 16
years of age, was convicted to day of
murderiog his older brother, and was
sentenced to life imprisonment. On
March 30 last Neal and his brother
Florence were playing cards and quar?
relled over 5 cents. Neal got an old
musket and shot Florence, killing him
instantly, and at the same time wounding
. another boy.
Jackseoro, Texas, June 15.?Sheriff
John Raines and his son were killed here
on Wednesday by W. W. Terrell. An
old family tend caused the fight Terrell
was shot in three places and may die.
Carthage, 'Tfij&i-s, Jane 15.?S. E.
Wilkerson, a young merchant at Bun
comb, in the Sou th western portion of .this
county, has, it is alleged, been very
attentive to two young ladies of the
neighborhood, both of whom Wilkerson
baa promised to marry. Recently Wil?
kerson and one of the young ladies left
Mr. S mi ley's residence, where he boarded,
(0 get married, as the family supposed,
They went to Wilkeraoa's store and took
laudanum. When they were discovered
and a doctor was called Wilkerson was
drawing his last breath. The young lady
begged the doctor to let her die also, as
she wanted to go with Mr. Wilkerson,
and that if she recovered from this at
tempt she would soon kill herself. Wil?
kerson had been telling friends that he
was going to die soon and was trying to
get his business straight The affair has
cast a gloom over the entire neighbor?
hood, both parties having relatives of
high standing in the county.
Where Stonewall Fell.
Fuedekicksbubg, Va., June 13.?At
Ghaucellorsville to day the monument
that marks the spot where Stonewall
Jackson received the wound from which
he died was dedicated with imposing
ceremonies. The Fredericksburg GreyB,
the. Maury Camp of Confederate Vete?
rans, delegations from the Lee Camp of
Richmond and the Lee Camp, of Alex?
andria, were in attendance.
Gen. Fitzhugh Lee was chairman of
thea meeting. He made a brief though
feeling address, after which he introduced
the Hon. John W. Daniels, the orator of
of the day, who spoke for more than an
hour, reviewing the life and character of
Jackson.
His Bpeech was received with applause.
Many touching anecdotes were related
of the dead hero, which produced
sensation.
Brief speeches were also delivered by
Gen. B. H. Colston, of Alexandria; Col.
Wm. Allen, of Baltimore; Col. Jed
Hotchkiss, of Staunton, and the Bev.
James P. Smith of this city. The three
last named were members of Jackson's
staff at the time be was shot.
Appropriate odes were sung at intervals
during the exercises by the Musical
Association of this city* The military
fired a volley of three rounds over the
monument at the close of the ceremonies.
Gen. Bradley T. Johnson , of Baltimore,
Col. E. Cutshaw of Bichmond and J. J.
Johnson of Fluvanna County, were
among the prominent people present.
Gen. Johnson was assisting to carry Gen.
Jackson off the field at Chancellorsville,
when a shell carried away his left arm,
causing the litter to fall. This was his
first visit to the battle-field since that
time. It is estimated that five thousand
people were present to-day.
Betting on Cleveland.
Washington, June 15.?Congressman
Timothy J. Campbell, of New York,
wagered $5.000 with Ex-Congressman
Paige, of California, last night, that Pres?
ident Cleveland would carry New York
State next autumn by a good round ma?
jority. One hundred dollars forfeit was
posted by each gentleman and the re?
mainder of the wager is to be deposited
immediately after tho Chicago Conven?
tion has finished its deliberations. Mr.
Campbell, who returned yesterday from
a visit to his district reports the party
well organized in New York city and
Brooklyn. He fixes President Cleve?
land's majority in New York city as not
less than sixty thousand as compared
with forty-three thousand four years ago.
In Brooklyn and throughout the State ne
believes the gains will be correspondingly
large.?New York Herald.
? A lady in New York last week was
struck violently on the month by a drunk?
en blacksmith whom she met casually
on the street, and who was wholly un?
known to her. At the stationhouse this
lady, though she had had one of her front
teeth knocked out, and was rendered
almost insensible by the blow of this
drunken ranisn, pleaded for his dis?
charge, because he was a working man
and had a family to support. The police
official in charge very properly disregard?
ed the request of the softhearted woman
and ordered the brute locked up. The
incident illustrates the unreliability of
women as prosecuting witnesses. The
enormity of the offense is easily lost sight
of by them in view of its possible punish?
ment. Who is more unfit to be at large
than a strong man who, when under the
influence of liquor, cruelly and wantonly
strikes a defenseless woman ? Yet it is
hard to convict such brutes on the testi?
mony of their victims,, especially wlfec,
as is usually the case, the woman assaul?
ted is the cowardly ruffian's wife.
? The Bev. H. F. Titus, the former
Sastor of the Baptist Church at Newton,
[aas., has concluded to try and start a
new church, whose members shall under?
take to live as Jesus Christ lived. Mr.
Titus resigned his pastorate some time
ago to study medicine to better fit himself
for missionary work; but hie people per?
suaded him to go on preaching until a
recent Sunday, when he told them he
should not enter their pulpit again; that
he had ceased to be a Baptist; that there
was no other church that he could go to,
since none attempted to live the ideal
life patterned out in the Gospel, and that
he had no choice but to attempt to start
one of his own. He thinks that in the
ideal church, such as he proposes to
found, there should be no rich, no poor;
that the members should give generously
one to another; that they should take
care of each other better than Free Ma?
sons or any' similar society, and that
there should be no social distinctions
among them.
? It is stated that seventy five Dem?
ocrats from California who attended the
St Louis convention were more lavish in
their expenditures than any other organ?
ization. . They reached the scene of ac?
tion several days before the- great body
convened. They occupied superb quar?
ters on the ground floor of the Southern
Hotel, and 125 cases of champagne?not
California champagne, either?were con?
sumed by the Californians and their guests
in two nays. Tammany Hall, with 850
on the St. Louis list, spent .$30,000 simply
in railroad fare, hotel bills and music, to
say nothing of the ''open house" luxury.
The county Democracy, with 250 excur?
sionists, spent $20,000. St. Louis is said
to be nearly a half million dollars richer
on account of the convention.
? Among the Yale men who will re?
ceive degrees at the coming commence?
ment are four Japanese students. One
of them, who is a resident graduate, will
be made a doctor of philosophy. Anoth?
er, the son of a Japanese nobleman, now
a minister of finance, will graduate from
the law school, is one of the brightest
men in bis class, and a contestant for the
John A. Porter prize. The most inter
esting of them is Sbinkichi Shegimi, of
the scientific school. He is a typical
Japanese, four feet tall and weighs ninety
pounds. He came to this county with?
out money or friends, drifted to Yale, was
taken in charge .byPresident T)wight and j
members of the faculty; and now gradu?
ates with honors.
? ? When Thurmah was a boy of ten he
had faith in a scrap book. But his moth?
er said: "Allen, I don't think you will
need that; you will find after a little that
you will be depending on your scrap book
altogether and your memory will suffer.
Scrap books are easily lost, but when yon
have a thing ones fastened in your mind
no one can'got it away from you." So
the boy fixed up hi_3 mind with scrap book
facilities and 1st the books go. When he
came to the law, as he says, he could1
remember the testimony of fifty witnesses,
though the cases lasted a week and more.
On a very lengthy case his notes would
be embraced in two foolscap pages.
? By means of recent improvements
made in manufacture of rifles, as many
as 120 barrels can no? be rolled in an
hour by one machine. They are straigh?
tened cold and bored with corresponding
speed, and even the rifling is done automa?
tically, so that one man tending six ma?
chines can turn out sixty or seventy bar?
rels per day. With the old rifling ma?
chine twenty barrels was about the limit
of a day's work; but the improved ma?
chines attend to everything after being
once started, and, when the rifleiog is
completed, ring a bell to call the atten?
tion of the workman.

THE RESULT OF KEBIT.
When anything stands a test of fifty
years among a discriminating people, it is
pretty good evidence that there is merit
somewhere. Few, if any, medicines have
met with such continued success and pop?
ularity as has marked the progress of Bran
dreth's Pills, which after a trial of over
fifty years, are conceded to be the safest and
most effectual blood purifier, tonic and
alterative ever introduced to the pnblic.
That this is the result of merit, and that
Brandreth's Pills perform all that is
claimed for them, is conclusively proved
by the fact that those who regard them
with the greatest favor are those who have
used them the longest.
Brandreth's Pills are sold in every drug
and medicine store, either plain or sugar
coated.

The American Fruit Preserving
POWDER
AND
LIQUID.
WE have been handling this valuable
preparation for several years with
great success, and have no hesitation in re?
commending it to our friends. Some few
have not been successful with it, but we
are confident it is because they failed in
some respect to follow directions. If di?
rections are properly followed there is no
doubt of its efficacy. We have many re?
commendations and certificates from our
people here in the County, but for the
present will mention only a few. Dr. R. A.

Drug firm of Simpson, Reid <fe Co., says:

satisfaction I recommend your Fmit Pre?

the same with tomatoes, plums, apples,
peaches and cherries. Find all the above
perfectly preserved, with the natural taste
of fruit, with no unpleasant taste what?
ever. Yours,

though we used your Preserving Fluid
with misgivings, we have no hesitancy
