Mr. Sellers wein over to Mr. Haseldeu's at an carly hour this morning, niel th" business was quick ly ?. 11 i h ich Mr. ll aselden nee u.? -i lr Sellers of being the au thor iifi!.<? above mentioned article. Mr. Sellers emphatically denied thc charge and sonic hot word-, followed, both men abusing each other. At this juncture Mr. Hasehlon drew his pistol, but made no o Hort to use it. Mr. Sellers was unarmed and said that was no pince to settle tho matter. At the scone were present besides Mr. J. Dudley ll aselden, Mr. Haseldeu's father,.!. <i. Haschten, his brother, Mr. h. M. Hasoldcn, Dr. Henry Ed wards and Aubrey IO vans. This morning, shortly after tile dif ficulty at Mr. Haseldeu's gin house, Mr. Hasoldcn, in company with his brother, L. M. Hasoldcn, Dr. Ed wards and Aubrey Evans, drove into Sellers, and stopped for a short while and engaged in conversation with sev eral citizons and left, it was supposed for Marion. Nothing more was seen of Mr. llascldcn and the gentlemen accompanying him until a short while before dark, when they drove in from toward Marion, both buggies stopping side by side on tho south end of thc depot and directly over the railroad tracks. At this moment Mr. Ben Sellers, who had been in tho postoffice. valkcd out on thc platform. As soon as he appeared ho was fired at from thc bug jgy containing Mr. Hasoldcn and Dr. Evans. Tho ball, which was from a 38-calibre pistol, struck Mr. Sellers squarely in tho stomach, going up ward. The next shot fired struck Mr. Sellers in tho left hand, entering be tween tho seoond and third fingers, breaking the thumb, and coming out. Immediately after thc seoond shot Mr. Sellers pulled his pistol and opened fire upon the occupants of that buggy. At this moment the two buggies separated, one going a short way up the railroad track and the rear one going to the left a short distance be low. The second buggy contained Messrs. llascldcn and Evans. When the buggy carno to a standstill Mr. llascldcn got out and walked towards a dwelling house some distance from thc platform, from which point he fired several shots. Owing to thc fact that Mr. John C. Sellers carno upon the scene at this moment, it is not known upon whom Mr. Haseldeu's shots took effect. Mr. Sellers rushed out upon the platform to tho aid of his son, and drew his pistol and open ed fire upon Evans, who was then thc only occupant of thc buggy. Thc other buggy at that time contained only Dr. Edwards, who was alone, with a rifle. He wheeled his horse back across thc railroad and thc rifle fell out on the track and was not pick ed up until Mr. Haseldeu's hands caine back for it, about twenty min utes later, and Mr. John C. Sellers was wounded with a 44-calibrc, appa rently a rifle ball, which passed under thc left collar and came out behind v the left shoulder. Another bullet of thc same calibre entered behind tho right shoulder and was cutout over the spinal column. The third ball entered the left forearm and came out about four inches above the point of entrance. A negro, who witnessed the wholo shooting, said that Mr. Luther M. Haselden got out of Dr. Edwards' buggy as they drove up and got on the south platform from that side. A bullet hole appears in a pane of glass Tanging down towards the inner office and a bullet was found on the floor of the office after having gone through the door.

' Vour correspondent met some parties on thc road, who informe*] lum that Mr..I. Dudley Haselton was going to Columbia tonight, which caused a speedy trip tn tit*- llaselden home? stead. Upon arriving there he was met hy 31 r. Luther M. llaselden, who promptly introduced him to his broth er, .1. Dudley llaselden, who is the utily one confined to hi- bed. Mr. j llaselden gave thc following statc ! ment : I ''Yesterday morning Mr. lien SeL ! Iers and myself had some talk about ! thc letters. I t<>1*1 him I <li<l not hold hitti responsible for the letters, fur I did not believe that he wrote them. I tobi him I hear?l that be bad been making reference lo them, and that I could not and wimbi not allow it.

Aforwards wc apologized to each other, shook hands and then transacted our business. As he was leaving 1 said, '1 suppose we shall meet as friends or bow?' Ile sug gested that we meet without speaking. 1 suggested that he seemed unsatisfied and that it would be best to settle it. t told bim 1 would ^ivc him satisfac tion nny way he wished it, he to get a friend to represent him. lie said: j 'Ob, if after reflecting on it I am not ! satisfied, I will give you ample no j tice.' Tho notice I got was while pass I ing the depot in my buggy he rushed I out-, pistol in baud, and opened fire on i mc, hitting mc in thc leg. As I I jumped to tho ground I returned the fire promptly and general firing began. I Mr. Hen Sellers retired io thc waiting ! room and Mr. John C. Sellers ran out, ! and then gun3 were fired from the ! waiting room. Only Mr. John C. Sellers and his son, Ben. showed themselves at all. ' Mr. John C. Sel lers took refuge behind thc mail crane and we exchanged several shots. I think Mr. Sellers was well armed, as he fired at least ten times. J. DUDLEY HASELDEN. Upon being interviewed Mr. John C. Sellers said: The first intimation of trouble was after my son returned from Mr. Haselden's gin and told me how outrageously he had been treated by tho mob at Haselden's, after hav ing been invited there on a matter of business by Mr. J. Dudley Haselden. Just after my son informed me of the trouble they drovo up in buggies, Messrs. J. Dudley and Luther M. Haselden in one buggy, and Mr. Au b;ey Evans and Dr. Edwards in an other buggy; Mr. J. G. Haselden, the father of Messrs. J. Dudley and Lu ther M. Haselden. in a buggy behind the others. As Dudley and Luther reached thc railroad track Luther jumped down and shifted his pistol from one pocket to another. Dudley put his in thc foot of the buggy. Lu ther went to the north side of the de pot, as if looking for some one. Dud ley got out and went on the opposite side of the depot, taking his pistol with him. Evidently not finding the person whom they were looking for, they drove towards Marion. 1 expect ed trouble that evening, and we pre pared ourselves for it. Thc mob re turned about dusk, coming by way of Den Seller's bouse, which \ws about half a mile away from thc travelled route from Marion. When the j' J reached the depot they stopped both buggies. Luther Haselden jumped I out and ran up thc steps on thc south side of tho depot. My son, Ren, wa6 on the front of thc office door on the west side and I was in thc office writ ing. Without a word being spoken Aubrey Evans fired ot Ben and struck him on the left hand, and immediate ly Dudley fired at him, striking him in thc breast. As soon as possible Ben pulled his pistol and began firing, and emptied his revolver at the.crowd. I then ran out, and as I passed through the door I was shot through.tho left forearm, I think, by Luther Hasolden through the window. I ran down the steps, firing at Dudley Hasolden and Aubrey Evans, who were both run ning and firing back. About then IBen fired at Henry Edwards with his shotgun, but after exchanging* a few shots with hun he whipped up his horse and ran off. I wa- -hot iii tlie har!, hy either Luther or Dudley Ha seldeti, while shooting at Henry Ed wards. Dudley llascldcn ran through a house and yard and took refuge in a negro's privy. Aubrey Evans-jumped in a window of a lady's house. Luther llascldcn went under tin; platform on all-fours and left thc depot running like a huck, lt is currently reported that thc crowd had coats of mail man ufactured and had them on.

Hy the President of thc United States and outlying colonies-a proclama tion. A national custom, dear to the hearts of the people, has heretofore called f??r thc setting apart of one day in each year as an occasion of special thanksgiving to Almighty Cod for thc blessings of the preceding year. This honored custom acquire- with time, circumstances, and people a tenderer significance so that it is deemed in higher and more appropriate recogni tion of our bumble servier? ('nine, Mark 's and Clod's) to set apart at least twelve months as a period id' general thanksgiving and prayer. Seldom bas this nation, m any oth er nation, for that matter, lue! greater cause for profound thanksgiving. We fu'inci a nation with whom we were at peace, unable to govern its unruly subjects, and in th?' interest of humanity alon?: and actuated by no other motive than pure benevolence, we undertook to assimilate them and by thc payment of twenty million dol lar.-' to the nation again.-t whom they were at the time in insurrection, re ceived that nation's permission todo so and bc darned. Wc -have been en gaged now in this generous calling for several months, and fiml that the sit uation is "well in hand." The especial cause for congratulation and sincere thanksgiving in this particular is the newly discovered fact that there arc still a few of those pesky islands that we didn't buy, therefore we will n??t have to assimilate them. We have succeeded in staying oil pestilence from our shores, such as Democratic victories. We have given liberal em ployaient to labor: oven employes un der the civil service rules have been putting in extra time woking for the success of American arms in the State? ol'Ohio, Kentucky,-?Nebraska, Mary land and New York. Wc have .strengthened the national finances, and to-day thc nation eau buy a whole archipelago ou six month's time if she wanted one. In all branches of industry and trade thor'.' has been an unequalled degree of prosperity as evidenced by our recent purchased victory in Ohio and Kentucky, which is an indication of the moral and edu cational growth of our nat ional char acter. The trusts, winch we have so j zealously fostered, are growing niceiy and are in position to protect thc honor of the flag by honoring it with their substance* during presidential and off years. For these reasons, and others too numerous to mention, I, William Mo rianna, President of thc United States, do horeby name the next twelve mouths ending at sundown Tuesday, November ?th, W. M., M. H., and A. D., 1900, as a season of fervent thanksgiving and prayer, to be observed as such by all our people on this planet, Mars and those islands in tho Milky Way. I recommend, al so, that those holding positions of trust and honor under this govern ment evidence their gratitude in sub stantial contributions to the poor, the sick and the needy campaign fund in order to maintain the honor of the flag. In witness whereof, I have set my hand and private Beal.

EDITOR INTKI.LIGKXCEB: In this age of industrial, couiinereial and territorial expansion, in this age of progress, edu cation and good will toward men, the average toiler or breadwinner takes no time to acquaint himself or inquire into the merits of social and benevolent features of fraternity. Often through prejudice and ignorance one is persua ded to believe that all fraternal orders are on the decay, and that it is only a question of time before all of them will disappear and become n relic of the past. How much truth can bc found in such idle assertions when properly and honestly analyzed,' One of the great est, noblest, purest and most sincere and upright statesmen, better known ns the "(irand Old Man," the late Kt. Honorable Wm. E. Gladstone, said with reference to fraternal orders: "You go into these societies to seek your own good through the good of others. Friendly societies have be come so important and telling u feat ure in t he const it ut ion of English society in its broadest and most fundamental part . t hat any account of this nation, ol'this people to whom wc rejoice to belong;, would deserve no attention as a reilly comprehensive account if it excluded thu element of such societies.'* There arc ninety-odd fraternal orders reporting to the Chief Registrar of Ibo English parliament, each more than one hundred years old, and comprising ?t membership of over eight millions. Thc Count Dc Winton, established in 1108, in the reign of King John, is 7.'U years old and solvent to-day. The Koyal Evanus, established in Ki."??, is 542 years old and solvent to-day. The De Voe bellellt has existed for over 211 years without a defalcation. Tin? Knights of Honor, in existence over 20 years in this country, has paid out over sixty-eight million dollars in l>enolits, which means that it has re lieved millionsof families who, through the hiss ot the bread-winner, would have been in distress and perhaps pau pers to-day. In Anderson alone fifty-eight thous and dollars have been paid by this or der to widows and orphans, most of whom were in need of it when the head of the family was lost to them, and without this small protection, as some would call it, there would have been great suffering in our midst. The ligures from the last New York Insurance Report of December 'Mst. 1808, shows that 4(1 fraternal orders paid out during; that year $20,080,152. Think of it for a moment only, that these millions were paid to widows and or phans whose husbands and fathers could not have paid tho heavy premi ums demanded twelve months in ad vance by insurance companies, and that this protection was secured through the instrumentality of these fraterni ties, who are furnishing its members protection at cost, and that these as sessments are paid in small . sums monthly. Would these millions have been paid out if such benevolent, charitable and fraternal orders were not in existence? Is any one just i tied in abusing and slandering these societies by predicting decay, when in the face of such figures struggling humanity is hourly amt dai ly relieved from dire suffering? Is any stronger argument needed than tho presentation cf these figures which are staggering to all who would dare say a word against these fraternities? Tho Knights of Honor, as a fraternal, benevolent and charitable order, has. during its 20 years of existeuce, saved many a home from foreclosure, has helped many a young boy and girl re ceive an education that would be other wise neglected, and to-day arc happy, prosperous and blessed with a home of their own. Should we not feel grateful that all who wish to become identified with this noble order can easily do so new sinco ? the membership fee of $10 heretofore - charged to applicants, has been remov ed. Only the medical examiner's fee, one quarter's dues and one month's as sessment is all that is required of the apri Hean You insure your house, your gin house, your stock of goods, why not in sure your life when such an opportuni ty is before youT The assessment principle is easy to understand. It is not constructed upon a system of abstruse calculations that only au expert actuary can understand, and moreover one always knows just what he is paying for.' "I have hutone lamp by which my feet are guided," said Patrick Henry, "und that is the lamp of experience. I know of no way of judg ing of the future hut by the past." This is a good rule to apply to a judg ment of th" order to which wo belong. OLD MEMBER K. OF H. On the 10th of December, 1897, Rev. S. A. Douahoe, pastor M. E. Church, South, Pt. Pleasant, W.
