FIENDISH! ASSAULT.
A Young Lady Near Florence The
Victim.
Florence, Special.?Miss Gertrude
Rhodenkerehen, step-daughier cf J. C.
Delecody, superintendent of the National
cemetery, was Monday afternoon
the victim of a brutal assault with intent
to ravish.
Her assailants were two brutes of
the lowest African type. While the
purpose was not accomplished, the
young lady is severely injured. A long
gash is on her forehead, her throat
bears the marks of brutal Angers, and
she is prostrated from the shock.
Several squads are scouring the
country on horseback, in buggies and
on foot. The crowd is cool but determined.
Neighboring points have been
furnished with descriptions ahd everything
is being done to apprehend the
assailants.
The National cemetery is two miles
from Florence. Miss Rhodonkerchen
was alone, uer father having gone off
with the gardener after after water.
Two negroes?she thought them farm
water, which she gave them. They returned
on another pretense, and then
for a third time. The young lady grew
apprehensive at the third visit. One
pretended _.s hand was hurt and asked
for a little soda. Wnen given the soda
the men asked for a piece of paper,
and Mi&s Rhodenkerchen turned to go
in and get it. This occurred at the
kitchen ..oor.
As she turned the blackest of the
negroes exclaimed: "You shall never
leave this door," Infi. Struck her down
with his fist. The brute knelt by her
and with his hands at her throat
drowned her screams. At the instance
of his accomplice, the chief assailant
cut a deep gash in the struggling young
lady's forehead and rendered her senseless.
The brutes then took flight.
When she recovered consciousness Mies
Rhodenkerchen ran, with the blood
streaming from her face, to the house
of a negro 400 yards distant. She was
taken care of and a physician sent for
and the wounds dressed.
The Coming Sta(e Fair.
Col. Thomas W. Hollcway, the sec
retary of the State ta:r society, na.i
made tbe following special announcement
as to tfie coming State Fair:
The 23d annual South Carolina State
Fair will be held in Columbia from
Monday, October 29th, to Friday, November
2d, inclusive.
Entries are absolutely free, and all
premiums regularly awarded are paid
in full. No part of the premium
money is retained by tfie society on
any account or pretext whatever.
The management seeks to encourage
the exhibition of only such animals
and products as are really meritorious
and are of utility and profit to the peo.
| pie of the State. This is the one great
object of the Fair, and the society is
imbued w ith an ambition to add a new
zest and a new dignity to agricultural
and mechanical pursuits and secure increased
influence and greater remuner
j ation to th05C engaged in them.
The premium list has been carefully
revised, and the society wishes to ca..
attention to the inducements offerei
that will certainly attract the .best exhibits
that^ can be shown in every class.
The achievements of the State Agricultural
and Mechanical Society in pro.
moting the development of agriculture
and its allied industries have never
been fully appreciated even by its best
friends; Its possibilities for future usefulness
in suggesting and disseminating
ideas that will materialize in improved
crops, live stock and farm practice
cannot be overestimated.
Not unmindful cf the entertainment
of its patrons, the management is on.
deavoring to secure a number of new
and nbvel attractions that will both instruct
and amu;e. rIhe?e will be anj
nounied later. All immoral sh ,ws and
. devices for gimbling under any f:nn
| whatever will be excluded from the
, grounds of the society; and any person
I 11 crV.* \'ir*]ntir^or nnv Iqvl- r\T thn Qtata
by practicing any gambling game or
device will be immediately arrested.
The large attendance at the fair of.
fers a splendid inducement to manufacturers
to make elaborate displays cf
their works. On all the leading railroads
of the State entering Columbia
excursion rates will prevail during fiir
week, thus extending facilities for visiting
the fair to the people of every
quarter of the State.
Visitors to Columbia will And much
lo entertain them besides the fair.
Every effort is made by the city to entertain
her visitors, who are assured
that they will receive a cordial reception
and spend a pleasant time. The
fair is conducted for the benefit of the
public at large, and their moral support
and active co-operation are requested
in order to make the 32d annual
fair the grandest in the history
or trie Agricultural ana Aiecnanicai
society. THOS. W. HOLLOW AY.

Uraw I.otg For Land.

erniucui purcuuseu i-v aura vi mw
ill tlie section of what is known as the
; "Spy," a tract of land adjoining the j
St. Regis Indian reservation, near :
Cornwall. Ontario. The other day the '
Government sent an officer to survey
and divide the land into eight lots of
fifteen acres each, which constitutes a
I homestead, and to allot the land to
I red men who did not posses a home- J
i steiid. The allotment was made in the j
' following unique manner:
Those Indians who were without
laud and who were the fathers of a
family, and who were in poor circumstances,
gave in their names to the
chiefs of the tribes, and those whom
1 the chiefs considered worthy were
placed ou a list. When all applications
were in the ehiefj selected sixtynine
names. But there were only
homesteads for eight, so the difficulty
was overcome by placing in a hat
sixty-nine names, sixty-one of which
were blanks. An Indian boy drew
from the hat as the names of the applicants
wore called out, and in this
way the eight capit.! prizes were
drawn. The Indians were satisfied
j with the method of distribution and its
'' results.
