HOREIELE CHIME OF TWO HEOBOES They Are Charged With Having Killed and Burned a Young Lady Who Wae on Her Way to the Atlanta Expoeitlon. Fire at Pickens Destroys a Printing Of* flee, Dwelling and Two Stores. Greenwood, S. 0., Nov. 25.—The most dastardly murder in the history of crime in this state was committed neai Ookesbmy, 12 miles of this city, when Miss Narcissn Bacrwell, a young lady of respectable family, while on her way to ureenwooa tu take the train for the Atlanta exposition, Was robbed and kill ed and her body burned in an old bam of fodder in the field. The coroner’s jury of inquest has caused John Richards and Thomas Watts, negr< es, to be arrested on cir cumstantial evidence pointing to their guilt. Watts has confessed to being a partner in the c rime, but lays the bur den of it on Richards. Great indignation and excitement pre vails and there was immediate danger of a lynching bee. The opinion is now tw •‘■o law will be allowed to take its course.) v- prisoners, in an interview, say that they killed the woman for her money and that no outrage was at tempted. Thirty dollars in money and some jewels were obtained. One clue to the guilt of the negroes was the fact of their spending too much money. Evidence before the grand jury makes the negroes desperate characters. CREATED A COMMOTION. An Elephant of Monstrpus Sise In the \ Neighborhood of Hampton. Hampton, S. C., Nov. 25.—There has been quite a commotion created in and near this place by the appearance of an elephant of monstrous size. It took in the town, disturbing the slumbers of several of the most prominent citizens bv its cries. It then proceeded to Vam- nlle, two miles below here, where it disturbed several citizens, and then went further on towards Almeda, but between the two places attacked a party of opossum hunters and they fled. The noise which it made was enough for them. It then reached Almeda, where it was •hot at by a man named Smart, watch man for the Southern Land and Lum ber company, and it ran towards and knocked the man down with its trunk, and scared everybody. It then proceed ed on its journey southward. Retnnipd l»y the RoMian Censor. Aiken, S. C., Nov. 28.—The Russian censor has returned to the Aiken Pub lishing company a press copy of Broad- head’s “Slav and Moslem,” which was addressed t > the editor of the Novoe Vremya, stamped “defendu” (forbid den.) Two or three passages in the first chapter were scored, among them this: “Many good projects fail before the inertia of red tapeism opposed to progress or intent on self aggrandize ment.” Fire In 1 lekens. Pickens, S. C., Nov. 26.—Tom Hudg- en’s printing office, Maria Griffin’s dwelling and both of Haygood’s stores were destroyed by fire here. Most of the goods were saved in a badly dam aged condition. Insurance, 96.000 on the stores and i-'GOO on the printing office. The fire started in the printing office. A TRIPLE TRAGEDY. Brooklyn Mm. Kill* His Two Little Child ren and Himself. New York, Nov. 26.—Herman Hat- tenhaft, a well known pugilist and trainer of Brooklyn shot and killed his two children and himself some time be tween 2 o’clcek Sunday afternoon and 9 o’clock Monday morning. Hattenhaft was the proprietor of a college of physi cal instruction in Brooklyn. Hattenhaft went out in the afternoon, taking the two children with him. When he had not returned at midnight his wife started out to look after the three. The door of the gymnasium where Hattenhaft was employed was found locked and was battered in by the police. They found father and the children lyin? dead. The two children had been shot and killed by their father, who then shot himself. The bodies were cold and the pre sumption is that the triple tragedy oc curred during the afternoon. Hattenhaft had been despondent for some time, probably becanse of busi ness trrutles. Twelve years ago, he was a pugilist, and was well known in Brooklyn as an athlete. He was at one time the instructor in the Brooklyn Athletic club. A Tribute to the L*te Justice Jackson. Washington, Nov. 26. — Attorney General Harmon presented to the su preme court the resolutions of respect to the memory of the late Justice How ell E. Sackson, adopted by the bar of the court.

The Report Ig Entirely at Variance With Rumors Which Have Been Previously Published, and Says the Project I* Neith er Practicable Nor Advisable With the Data Now Available. New York, Nov. 26.—A special to The Herald from Washington says: A serious blow has been dealt the Nicaraguan Canal company’s project for the construction of a waterway across the isthmus by the report of the Nicaraguan canal commission. Inevitable delay and a further and more thorough investigation of the en tire subject are declared to be necessary before even the engineering feasibility of the canal across Nicaragua can be de cided upon. Your correspondent is able to make public a review of the contents ana tne text of the conclusions of the report of the Nicaraguan canal commission. This report is now lying on the president’s desk, and is being considered by him in connection with his annual message to congress. The report is at svrh variance with the numerous rumors and predictions which have from time to time been published concerning it, that it will cause great surprise and disapp intment among those who have hoped for a gen erally favorable report, and who have therefore placed credence in these ru mors, which were usually stated “on the highest authority” that the com mission favored the route proposed i>y the company, and placed the cost of the Canal at about $110,000,000. The report points out that it is nei ther practicable nor advisable to at tempt the construction of the Nicara guan canal upon the data at present available, and that the undertaking would be fraught with hazards too ob vious to disregard. That the necessary knowledge may be had on the physical and topographi cal conditions affecting the construction and maiutenanco of a canal across Nic aragua, upon which to form a final judgment as to the feasibility, perma nence and cost, the commission recom mends an appropriation by congress of 9850,000 for extensive additional sur veys and examinations, covering a pe riod of 18 months. With the data at hand, however, the commission makes a provisional esti mate of cost of $12:3,472,1)83, or nearly double that of the Maritime Canal com pany’s conditional estimate of $69,898,- 660. The commission makes its estimate “provisional,” for the commissioners say the existing data are inadequate as a basis for estimating the cost of con struction. Some portions of the work may cost more, and others less. The report says the official estimate bv the company of $69,893,660 is insuffi cient for the work; that in several im portant cases the quantity must be greatly increased, and in numerous cases the United States’ nriees do not make proper allowance for the differ ence in cost of work between the United States and Nicaragua. The general trend of the entire report is certainly very unfavorable to the ca nal company. The commission refrains from any airect criticism of the com pany’s prospectus, but its report shows that certain features, which the com pany has persisted in assuring the pub lic, through congress, were known to be absolutely safe and feasible, if put in execution might jeopardize the practi cability of the whole system, and pos sibly destroy forever the hope of a ca nal by means of the San Juan river and Lake Nicaragua. For instance, the Maritime Canal company has proposed to construct in Ochoa, on the San Joan river, 29 miles from Greytown, on the Caribbean sea, what is known as a “rock fill” dam to hold the lake and river level at a navi gable elevation, and divert the line thence from the river to the sea by a canal in excavation. This has, in fact, been one of the foregone conclusions, certainties of the project, and the com pany has told congress that this enor mous structure could be erected for 9977,278. The canal commission says a “rock fill” dam cannot be built in Ochoa for less than 94,000,000. The comission considers that too much time and pains were devoted by the company to ascertaining the topograph ical country, when it should have paid more attention to the finding of the feasibility of a waterway across Nicara- S a and its cost. The commission refrains >m commenting on the company's methods of making its surveys, and, in a great mamy cases, its failure to make surveys. Certain features of its plans are commended. The report, however, presents many very interesting comparative tables, which appear to show the astonishing insufficiency of the company’s data, the inexplicable smallness of the amount of work it thinks necessary to be done and consequently a comparatively modest estimate of cost of construction and completion of the canal. The conclusions of the commission are 18 in number. They refer largely to questions involved in the detuled construction of the work. Saved Honey on Printing. Washington, Nov. 25.—Secretary of the Interior Hoke Smith will bring out quite prominently in his annual report the fact that there has been a large saving in the printing of the Patent Office Gazette. It will show that the government formerly paid 9166,000 ev ery year for printing The Gazette, and that it is now being done under com petitive bias for 985.000 a year, and us satisfactorily as when done by the com pany which for years had the work. The Younger Duma* Seriously 111. London, Nov. 25.—Reports from Paris indicate that M. Alexandre Dnmas, the younger, is serionsly ill. A dispatch says M. Damns was seized on Saturday with cerebral congestion, which Dr. Puzzi diagnosed ns cerebral abscess. The patient was in a comut so condition and his state is now regarded as vary fray*. UP.. WILSON'S REPORT The Postmaster General Wants the Civil Service Extended. POSTAL BEF0RMS RECOMMENDED. Uc Also Believe* In LulurgitiK til" Scope of the Free Delivery Ailvanl:i*je*—A a Honest Adiuinist rut ion of the i.iglit- Hoar Law—Wants Train Wrecking Se verely I’liiiisiieii, JJto. Washington, Nov. 27.—Poftmaster General Wilson has made his first an nual report to the- president. The re ceipts of the posti lfiec department for the year ending June 80, 1895, were $76,171,099, and expenditures $86,790,- 172. Mr. Wilson estimates the revenue for the year ending June 30, 1897, at $89,793,120, and the expenditure at $94,- 817,900, the difference to be made up by congressional appropriation. Speaking of the deficiency, Mr. Wilson says: ‘‘The regular annual i etHoucy in the revenues of tlio p; stal se rvice, empha sized as it appears to be by the unusual amount of the deficiencies for the past two years, may call forth comment from those who believe (hat the p stolfice de partment should ho sdf sustaining. But it should be remembered that the free business done by this department for other branches and departments of tho government, if paid for at regular or cost rates, would m re than wipe out its deficiencies.” The postmaster general refers to the growth of the free delivery service, and says: “I believe it is good policy for con gress and for this department t > foster the extension ot this service by judi cious apprpriations and judicious ad ministration. “The vigt r ns and ofi’o'-tive efforts of my immediate prodeooss r have pn- duced at last an honest administration of the 8-hour law, and made letter car riers’ trip and (Ifieirl time icports actu al and truthful records of service.” Mr. Wilson reiterates the necessity for legislation to punish ti aii!wre r king and obstruction t > mails arced by his predecessor, and iccommeuds legislation authorizing tho use c.f private pc.stal cards. Postma-ter General Wilson says that the civil service rules shouM be extend ed wherever practicable. 11“ says: ‘•The continuity of the dopaitniont should he preserved in chances of ad ministration, not only alug the line of it: subordinate and separate service, but in that larger grasp of its history, its daily work and its healthful pr gross, which is found ah no with those who direct and control its chief bureaus. I concur, ther*'fore, in the judgment of one of my recent predecessors, that at least throe of the assistant postmasters general should h id th“ir offices by a civil service or merit tenure and not by a political tenure. “I iefr;;iii from ciicrir.g a like ('pinion as to tho fourth assistant postmaster general.because f< mil hclass postmasters, win sc appointment is primarily allotted to him, are yet outside of that tenure. “The question of extending civil ser vice metln ds to tho selertion of fourth- class postmasters has naturally received my attonti'-n sinde 1 have been at the head of this department. But I do not find myself able to make as yet any specific recommendati ms on this impor tant subject in the lino of the legisla tion which lias been prop sod. “It is my pnrp sc to proce“d under the autli rity of this order as discreetly as I can, and in the long run as far as experience will justify, so ns to secure these commendable results.'’ DESPERADOES ESCAPE. Kevi'ii 'aw ThHr Way Out of i’ratt Mines lYnltcutinry—Three Recaptured. Birmingham, Ala., Nov. 27.—Bart Thrasher, the Bibb county outlaw and the n' ted desperado criminal in Pratt mines penitentiary, with six puls. John Bentley, Go rge Marshall, Joe Ward, John Connors, Walker White and Joe Dowley. the two last named being lifo sentence murderers, escaped by sawing their way through the fioor of their coll in the stockade yard. They rushed upon the nearest guard, knocked him half dead with a brick, took his gnu and then, overpowering and disarming the remaining guard, scaled tho walls of the yard and fled. Warden Roper and a p“:-se was soon in pursuit with dogs, bat the escapes made friends with the canines by feed ing them, and tku dogs proved value less. At dftric the pursuers came up with the party on tho m mu tain, near Coal- burg, and a desperate battle followed, four shots being exchanged. Rowley was shot down and perhaps mortally wounded.. He and White were captur ed, but the others got away. It is be lieved that some of them are wounded. J< e Ward, a third escape, was taken at Brookside and the officers are in hot pursuit of tho others. Thrasher has killed two men in his life and escaped from the penitentiary throe times, being shot down on two occasions before his recapture could be effected. A TRIP TO COLORADO.

Birmingham, Ala., Nov. 27.—Engi neer Albeit Zimmerman of tho Kansas City, Memphis and Birmingham rail road, was killed in a wreck at Winfield, a small station 79 miles from here. He was in charge of an engine pulling a coal train, and at Winfield the engine ran into a switch while the train of cars remained on tho main track The engine was thrown fr m tho track and turned over, the tender and one coal car falling c n Engineer Zimmerman, crushing him into a jelly.

Chicago, Nov. 27 —Miuuio May, a noted local thief, who is said to have stolen $100,000 duiing her career, noti fied the police that she had reformed and would hereafter live in Dayton, O., where she has bought a homo. She has about $20,1)00. Min l a: been arrested several hundred ti nes auriug ten years. Tbo police say there never was a dio- m nd stud that Minnie JVi ty could not bite off. She is now 33 years ot age. ity. After all, it Is not much of a trip as far west ns Colorado. Our western trunk lines are magnificently equipped. Pullman sleeping cars, dining cars and fast trains make a 1,500 or 2,000 miles journey but a small thing. The Bur lington. the Union Pacific, the Rock Is land, the Missouri Pacific and the Santa Pe railroads are vieing with each other as to which shall have the best equipped trains and make the best time west. They are now spanning this continent iu about fourdays. from ocean to ocean. I was charmed with Colorado, her cities, her plains, her mountains, her gorges, her canyons. 1 was a little sur prised to see the rustle and stir among the people. I had heard much and read more of the dire state of things by rea son of the fall in silver; butall the rage in Colorado to-day is gold. At I^ead- ville, at Cripple Creek and the many oilier points in the Rockies, the big yields of the rich mines hove turned the tongues and hands of the people to the talking of and the gathering of the gold. I verily believe that if this state develops as much in her gold interests in the next twelve months ns she has in the past, they will he for the single gold standard. After all, questions of l/imetallisin and single stardurd are questions of policy, and not of principle at ail, in my judgment. Denver is a great city, and a city with a great fu ture. It is midway between St. Louis and San Francisco. It is magnificent ly built up. Colorado Springs is one of i he loveliest and prettiest towns of 15,- l;()0 population I ever saw. Pueblo is a manufacturing center. 1 was surprised to see tlie great furnaces and steel works in full blast. One of them is capitalized at $ 14.000,000, in the city of Pueblo. Hie climate is charming. Wherever irrigation exists it is a garden spot. Where there is uo water it is a desert. Irrigation is the rule in Colo rado, and the yield is abundant and wonderful- Alfalfa. Irish potatoes, fruits of all kinda, such as apples, grapes, pears, peaches, and so on, come to the highest perfection. 1 was charmed with the scenery a long the KioGrande railroad, the mountains, the gorges,, the canyons. Soinetin>es looking up from the rear platform of the Main the rocks were perpendicular 2.00G feet on either side. 1 did not go as far west us Leadville; but the most iiieniorahle incident on my trip was the ride to the summit of Pike's Peak, 14.- 000 feet and more above the sea level It is eight miles trom the base of Pike’s Peak to its summit us we go by the cog road, as it is called. This railroad is built just as our other standard guage roads are built, except the center piece tic tween the two steel rails on which our trains run there is a cog rail. The driving wheels of the engine have a cog wheel th?; works in those cogs, and the niig^ little giant of an engine pushcAih^ seuger coach in front of it u tain, the grade being 1.3()^rhet to mile. The engine atrujffgles and and struggles und crawls up hi a stubby black^Tnake windi course. The sjjgiiery going up the tain is charming. Higher and hi we clinilyliitil we puss the timber 1 and higfler and higher until ot lost find ourselves on the summit of PH Peakr^snow-capped. cold. The ntn^ phere is dry and the pressure if I lings severe. Weak lungs can nomtifiSd 1 it. Children sometimes come* down pale and sick und limp from the moun tain top. Standing on the summit of the mountaiu we look north und see Denver 70 miles in the distance; and looking west we see the snow-capped su min its of some of the Rocky moun tain ranges, 150 miles distant. Look ing east, Colorado City und Mauitou City look to us like little children’s playhouse cities. And stretching out towards the east is the boundless plain, with 10,000 cattle and horses feeding in sight. From the top of Pike’s peak we get a vision which we get nowhere else. An hour and 40 minutes ride from base to top ami an hour and 30 min utes ride from top to base, on the cog road. You ride as smoothly, almost, and as comfortably os on a passenger couch on our trunk lines, without losing interest a moment as you go or come, the eye watching, the mind taking in. And when you reach the base at lust ami hoard the street cur for Colorado City ; you feel us thoiign you had been in a trance. The memories of the trip, thu memories of the scenes which meet j our gaze us we look from the mountain- | top abide with us, pleasant, wonder ful, sublime. Five dollars for the round trip on the cog road seema high at a glance, hut a man can see more for the five dollars expended there than any-^ where 1 know on the top of the ut^hc*. Let no oue, whose eye runs ounrthese lines, fail to make the tripU^he sum mit of this grand oid mtpffctain if they puss near its base. 1 was churtuedjrfio with the people of Colorado., Ttiey are a live, healthy, vigorous i)Ad social people, made up of almost /very state in the union, and not a tfery large per cent, of foreign peo ple. They live well; many of them live fast. Some that were rich three years ago are poor to-duy. but they are magnificent poor folks. I have not en joyed a trip socially more than my trip to Colorado. 1 was in ail four days in Denver.
