* TROUBLE IX RESTAURANT. ! _ . Charleston Dentist is in a Washing- ' ton Hospital Minus an Eye. I Washington. .March 5.?With his | left eye removed and the sight of his j right eye seriously impaired, Dr. j Lonnie Robson, a dentist, of King: street, Charleston, S. C., is a patientj at the Episcopal eye, ear and throat j hospital. Physicians attending him j say that his condition is serious and ! that he may be blind for life. His j injuries are the result of an alterca-! tion with a negro. Dr. Robson came to this city to attend the inauguration ceremonies with Company D, Third regiment of the National Guard of South Carolina. While dining at a restaurant on Pennsylvania avenue with some friends, Dr. Robson had a dispute with a negro waiter, but blows were prevented by Capt. Schroder, a member of the dentists' party. Shortly after Robson and the waiter renewed the quarrel and the negro struck Dr. Robson a blow in the face, breaking his spectacles and driving a portion of the lens into his left eye. At the hospital it was found that the sight of Robson's left eye was destroyed and the injured eyeball was removed. Dr. Lamb says the . right eye .is in a serious condition as the result of complications caused by sympathetic nerves. He said Robson was doing as well as could be expected under the circumstances. The police are making an investigation of the matter. SHOT BY REJECTED SUITOR.

WILL NOT AID LIB2L SUIT. RESIGNS KATHKR THAN PROSECUTE PULITZER AXD SMITH. Federal District Attorney Quits Service, Being Conscientiously Opposed to Government IVosecution. Washington, .March 5.?United States District Attorney Kealing, at Indianapolis, has resigned rather than participate in the efforts of the department of justice to bring Delavan Smith and Jos. Pulitzer to Washington to stand trial for criminal libel in connection with publications concerning the Panama canal and railroad. Mr. Kealing in a letter to the attorney general says: , "For almost eight years I have hac. the honor of representing the onrflmmont nf IKa T'nito/1 CfQtac o c jjvt uiu^ut vi tuc L1 ait^u utaivo uo attorney. During that time I have prosecuted all alike without fear or favor, where I had an honest belief in their guilt. "I have been compelled on several occasions to prosecute personal friends but in each case I only did so after a thorough investigation had convinced me of their guilt. "In this case, as to the guilt or innocence of the defendants on the question of libel I do not attempt to say. If guilty, they should be prosecuted, but properly indicted and prosecuted in the right place, viz, at their, homes. "I am not in accord with the government interests' attempt to put a i strained construction on the law, to drag the defendants from their homes to the seat of government to be tried and punished while there is a good and sufficient law in the jurisdiction in the State court. "I believe the principle involved is a dangerous one, striking at the very foundation of our form of government. I cannot, therefore, honestly and conscientiously insist to the court that such is the law. I do not feel that I can, in justice to my office, continue to hold it and decline to assist." In connection with the Elkhart bank case, Mr. Kealing prosecuted | and convicted all the officers of that l institution, including Walter Brown, [ who was his close personal friend j and a member of the Republican State committee. C. W. Miller, who has twice been attorney general of Indiana, will be recommended by Senator Beveridge for United States attorney to succeed Mr. Kealing. Rural Carriers Must Count Mail. Since the first of the month, and continuing for 30 days, the local postoffice and postoffices throughout the country have an additional burden. The rural carriers have to count every piece of mail they handle on each trip, both the letters and packages which go out of the postoffice and those which are collected ?? rA,,ta Thie ic in arrnrrianee Cli 1 VUW* X UAU iw AM MVW with the federal law, which went into effect March 1. The object in requiring rural carriers to count the pieces of mail is to enable the postoffice department to ascertain just about how much mail is carried on each route, and will be in effect only 30 days. The carrier must count each piece of mail on going out and also the number of pieces he collects along his route during the day. The average for the month will be taken by the postoffice department as indicating the amount of mail business of each route. The move on the part of the postoffice department is understood to be the result of laws recently enacted prohibiting newspapers and other periodicals sending a long string of papers on which subscriptions have not been paid, in consequence of which publishers have had to discontinue papers in many cases and thus greatly diminish the quantity of mail handled by the postoffice department. Those, however, who handle more than 5,000 pieces of mail each month are exempt from the new law. Counting each piece every day will be laborious worn, auu mauy carriers are hoping their patrons will remember them by writing as many postal cards as possible, so as to bring their mail up to the required 5,000 pieces.

Selous, the famous lion killer, explained yesterday that while he has collected in London the camp and other equipment for Mr. Roosevelt's hunting expedition and will go with him to Mombasa, where they arrive on April 22, they will not shoot together in East Africa and Uganda. "Mr. Roosevelt's party .comprising his son. Mr. Cunningham (an expert guide), and two American naturalists," said Mr. Selous, who was visited at his home at Worplesdon, "will go one way; Mr. William McMillan will join me in striking out in another. Xo doubt, however, we may come into touch more than once with the president's party. 1 ~ A nofi tit ill 1J JL V V UUVIT^ UVaiVIO TV AAA carry the president's equipment. Thaw will travel for a week or 10 days, making for some point where game is found; there they will halt for a week or even a month at a time. In East Africa they should find plenty of giraffes, antelopes, buffaloes, and lions. Elephants will be encountered more in Uganda. Small bore rifles will be carried for antelopes and giraffes; these, with expanding bullets, will be used for lions; and for killing elephants a heavy gun carrying a cordite-loaded cartridge will be taken. "Lions you either come across accidentally, risking z. shot at close quarters, or you go out on horseback very early in the morning on a high plateau in the hope of catching a lion which has delayed too long in feeding and cannot get back .over. When you are overtaking the beast he generally comes to a halt and faces you, growling. That is the moment when you slip off your horse and shoot him. Sometimes the lion will charge at you. If he does, you gallop out of the way and wait for another opportunity. If he charges while you are off your horse, and you fail to hit him as he comes at you, it may be awkward. "The party will find antelopes all over the plains. Giraffes, which feed on the boughs of the trees, will have to be tracked in the well wooded localities. The party should be able to learn from the natives the haunts of the elephant herds in the Uganda forests. When you wound an elephant it will often make a savage rush at you. While you are shooting one of a herd, too, you may not notice another among the trees, which may make a sudden dash at you. Old female elephants are notably vicious. "Probably Mr. McMillan and myself will not hunt for more than three months. The president, however, will prolong his expedition for nearly a year. One of his chief objects is to hand over to American museums specimens of the animals he shoots."?London Mail. Negro Beaten by Angry Men. Selma, Ala., March 5.?News reached Selma to-day that last night near Summerfield, Mose Coleman, an aged negro, who lives in that community, was decoyed away from home by two white men and beaten severely. When he called his son to help him, one of the white men shot the soi, causing a flesh wound in the abdomen. The young men were John Rutledge and Bertram Tait, it is reported. A few weeks ago the men, it is claimed, cut a bee tree belonging to the negro and he reported it to Mr. Campbell, justice of the peace at Summerfield. Having been reported to the authorities by the negro greatly incensed the young men, it is claimed, and last night they proceeded to his home and told him if he would go with them over to Mr. ~ ' A* 1 J Campoeii s piace tney wouxu seme with him for the tree. It is said, when they had promised to reimburse the old man, he at once agreed to accompany them to the place designated by Coleman's home. It is charged that the young men set upon their aged victim and heat him unmercifully. After they assaulted and bruised him, they placed dry pine straw around his body and set it on fire. Cries brought his son to his assistance, and when he was approaching one of the young men shot the boy, causing a painful flesh wound. A physician was kept busy all night trying to save his life.
