A COHTINDED STORY
EVENTS PRESENT JOINED
TO THOSE PAST.
FAKMLUS SUCCESSOR.
ELECTION IN CORK FOR HIS OLD
SEAT.
! Frleata Maka a Uaaae t Bene
Caavaaa aad Threaten Dire Thtnga ta
Th.M Who Tot for the ParnelUte
CaadiaUte The MoCarthyite Won.
The election held at Cork for tho succes
sor of the Into Charles Stewart Parnell, who
rearesentcd Cork city In the House of Com
toons, was full of excitement. Tho Par
elllte candidate vras John E. Redmond,
and Martin Flavin, a butter merchant, was
fee McCartbylte candidate. Tho Influence
tftha priests was with the McCarthyltes,
and they made a house to house canvass of
(ho voters, following Immediately after tho
ParntUlte canvassers and threatening the
jlecton with all sorts of horrible things if
they votld for Eedmond or failed to vote
or Flavin. In order to avert possible dis
order Ae polls in tho morning were sfrongly
ruardod by tho police. Many priests were
stationed about the tKWths, mingling with
the voters and giving them final instruc
Mona and admonitions or making final ap
peals before they entered tho polling
tooths. As the day wore on matters be
came more lively. There were several ex
citing scenes In Northwest Cork, where a
continual squabbling going on between the
priests and tho Parnellites was a main
feature. A strong detachment of Infantry
marched to tho troubled district and drove
back the disorderly element. At tho close
of the polling Mr. Flavin was credited with
tho victory.
WORLD'S FAIR IN INDIANA.
A rian or the Boosters to Claim the Big
Chicago Show.
It is expected there1 will bo a wild howl
from Chicago when she learns that Indiana
aiay ask for and receive a slice of land
twelve miles wide off tho eastern portion of
Illinois to Justify a claim that will bo made
on tho next Illinois Legislature. Should the
claim be held valid it will includo the great
25,000.000 stock yards, as well as the pres
ent slto'of the World's Fair. Tho Immedi
ate basis of tho claim results from an Ohio
claim filed against Indiana for atwelve
xiile strip of land on the eastern boundary.
As Indiana's western boundary was orlgi
nally fixed by measurement from the east
ern boundary and as recent surveys seem
to indicate that Ohio's claim is correct, In
ilana's boundary would take In that part
of Chicago.
The War on the Lottery.
The Anti-Lottery Democratic Committee
it Louisiana havo Issued an address ap
pealing to the country for aid In defeating
the lottery. It is said that an investigation
of its lnsido workings shows it to be an
enormous swindle. The committee asserts
that by purchaso of 6tock by its
stockholders and friends It has ob
tained control of a large portion of
the organized capital of tho state. Its
Kroag hand on the financial springs of a
commercial community is so masterful aa
to silence the opposition of the cautious and
attract the 6upport of the timid. By the
fprce and glitter of Its money power it has
warped the Judgment and blunted the
conscience of many good people, making
them first apologists for and then desirous
61 such riches.
Damages for a Colored Editor.
A Jury n New York City awarded Thomas
Fortune, the colored editor of the New
York Aoe, 825 damages in an action
brought against tho proprietor of a Sixth

Cholera la Asia.
The ravages of cholera in tho ancient
city of Damascus show an alarming In
crease. The record for the week past shows
180 eases and 90 deaths. Owing to tho
prevalence of cholera Hodcida is in nearly
as bad a srtnatloa as Damascus, but at
Allcppo the plague has subsided.

termine that Helm, Republican, has been

ties the Republicans have elected their en
tire ticket in 4very county in the State.

At a point about a mile south of Oconto,
Wis., aa attempt was made to wreck a pas
senger train over the Chicago & North
ratara railway. A rustic on his way home
A'
from Oconto saw three men engaged; in re
moving the spikes and. fish plates holding
one of the rails-, flurrying back he signaled
the approaching passenger train and the
engineer succeeded in stopping the engine
just as the front trucks left the track
where the rails had been spread. At the
point the wreckers bad selected for their
hellish work the road runs along a high em
bankment, an i but for the discovery a ter
rible wreck and loss ot life would have re
sulted. The t'HiLi outrage.
Further Detalla Show that the Hair Bad
Net Been Told.
Secretary Tracy has received the follow
ing despatch from Capt. Schley, of the Bal
timore, dated Santiago, Chill. "Petty
Officer Johnson, in whose arms Rlggln was
killed, declared that the act was done by a
police guard. Apprentice Williams reports
that he was arrested by a mounted
policeman, who placed cat gut nippers
around his wrists and started tho
horse on a gallop, throwing him down.
Coalbcavcr McWUllaras was taken to prison
with catgut nippers around bis wrists and a
lasso around his neck, and be was bitten Sn
the arm after arrest. Coalbcavcr Qulglcy,
while trying to escape from the mob, was
struck with a sword by a police officer. Ap
prentice Talbott was arrested and on the
way to prison was struck repeatedly by the
police. Petty Officer Hamilton was dan
gerously wounded and unconscious and
was literally dragged to prison. One of my
people, trying to make him comfortable,
was threatened with tho butt of a musket
and made to desist. Tho prisoners were
examined secretly, the presence of an offi
cer sent by me to the court being denied.
Before discharged the men were required to
sign a paper. Relnhart asked a court offi
cial the meaning of this paper, and he was
informed that it was a niero form, stating
that the signer was not engaged in trouble.
Two of my men are dead, three dangerous
ly wounded and about fifteen slightly in
jured." CONVICTS RUNNING LOOSK.
Great Excitement la Teaaeaaee Over the
Coop of the Miners.
Gov. Buchanan has issued two proclama
tions, one offering a reward of $5,000 for the
arrest and conviction of the leaders of the
Briccvllle riot, and tho other offering a re
ward of $25 each for the capture of the es
caped convicts. A rumor Is current
to tho effect that a secret understanding
exists between tho miners throughout the
state to liberate all convicts working In the
mines. In consequence, it is thought the
next more will be u- Oliver Springs, Tracy
City and Inman. As a precaution the
guards at Oliver havo been largely re
inforced and if tho stockade should be at
tacked a vigorous resistance would be made.
Tho governor will not call out tho militia at
present. Ho will depend upon the civil
authorities to rearrest the convicts. The
convicts are scattered, tho majority fleeing
to the mountains ot Kentucky. The matter
has created great excitement and the
outcome is looked forward to with Interest.
The failure of the legislature to adjust the
difficulties is the foundation of the present
lawlessness, and the public is very indig
nant. New Translation of the Bible.
A new translation of the Bible Is the next
sensation which Is to convulse the religious
world. The plan suggested is that one of
the books of the Bible shall be committed
to one eminent advanced scholar for trans
lation and comment. Not only the Old and
New Testament books are to be included,
but also tho Apocrypha. Among the
American members of the committee, as
suggested in the ChrUUan Union, are Profs.
Toy of Cambridge, Brlggs and Brown of
Union Theological Seminary, Harper of
Yale, W. R. Harper, of tbo New Chicago
University, and Dr. Ward of the Inde
pendent. Sensational Indictments.
The grand jury at Houston, Tex., re
turned 100 indictments. Some of these arc
new to jurisprudence in Texas. Officers
who have been derelict in tbeir.duty have
been declared guilty; men who rent bawdy
houses arc indicted instead ot the occu
pants; the tax collector is given notice that
ho is responsible for the payment by saloon
men of their licenses. In fact, the report
goes at the roots of the evils. Some high
flyers, socially and politically, have been
Indicted.
A Victory for Brlggs.
Tbo New York Presbytery, in session to
discuss the charges of heresy against Prof.
Charles A. Brlggs, of Union Seminary, de
cided to dismiss the charges by a vote of 94
to 49, seventy-ono ministers and twenty
three elders voting in the affirmative and
twenty-six ministers and twenty-three
elders voting in tho negative. The action,
however, does not end the controversy, as
It will undoubtedly be taken before the
New York Synod.
Killed On. Fagitive.
About fifty convicts released In tbo mines
at BrieeviSe and Oliver, Tenn., have been
captured in Kentucky and returned. As a
coachload was being transferred at Lebanon
Junction, the officers saw two fugitives who
wero not arrested as they were sitting at a
fire near the railroad. They undertook to
arrest these and put them with the other
prisoners. The fugitives resisted and In the
fight ono was killed. The other escaped.
England Will Not laterfere.
Tho London Telegraph docs not mince
matters in discussing the Chilian contro
versy, but emphatically objects to tho effort
to have England brought into it in any
particular. That journal notifies the
Chilians that Great Britain will not Inter
fere to protect a nation which permits out
rages to be committed upon unarmed men
in a friendly port.
Snow Tea Feet Deep.
A continuous snow storm prevailed
throughout Bulgaria several days last
week. Owing to the severity of the storm
express trains were snow-blocked. Extra
engines had to be sent to extricate the
blockaded trains. Tho Varna & Rustichuck
line was Completely blocked, the tracks be
ing covered with snow ten feet deep.
Tbo Itata Case.
Judge Boss, of the Federal Court at Los
Angeles, Cal.. has dismissed tho indictments
against F. A. Burt and Ricardo Trumbull,
for fitting out the Itata, on the ground that
the indictment Is defective in not stating
that war existed in Chili and that the de
fendants were belligerents, and that taking
arms peaceably was not fitting an expedi
tion against Chili.

Tne Bcarick poisoning case at Woon
socket is over, and a slight review of
this noted trial might be of interest.
On October 24, 1890, Mrs. Eliza Hear
ick was arrested for poisoning her
husband. She at once mado numerous
confessions, and it seemed a foregone
conclusion that imprisonment for life
would be hor fate. As the time for trial
drew near public interest grew Intense
when it was discovered that her counsel
had withdiawn, all but John T. Kcan,
& young attorney of Woonsockct, who
prepared for a desperate light for
his client. Witnesses were brought
from several states, and among them
Dr. Walter llaimcs, of Chicago, leading
chemist in Rush Medical College. John
E. Whiting, States Attorney, was assist
ed by E. II. Aplin, of Huron. It seemed
an unequal contest, but the result is a
victory for the defense. Tho jury was
out twenty-four hour., and their verdict
of manslaughter was coupled with a
recommendation for a light sentence.
The maximum sentence can only be
four years, and as the defendant has a
5-months-nld baby to bo considered,
there is no doubt but what the sentence
will not exceed two years. Tho court
will pronounce judgment November 20.
A Salt for Damages.
Mrs. Amanda II. Ciiapix, an ex-pub
lie school teacher of Sioux Falls, who
was Miss McKcon when teaching, has
started an action in tho circuit court to
collect $5,000 damages against ex-Mayor
W. E. Welley, claiming that she suffered
injury to her character to the extent of
the sum named in his swearing out a
warrant for her arrest charging her
with horse stealing. Some time ago
Mrs. Chapin had her buggy horse board
ing at Welley's hotel stable and ran up
a bill to tho amount of $30. The animal
was held by Welley for the bill, and by
somo means Mrs. Chapin got the horse
and refused to return it. The arrest
followed and she was acquitted at tho
trial.
Advertising the Hills.
A train load of twenty-five cars of
gold ore from twenty-five different mines
in llald Mountain District has been sent
to tho smelting works at Aurora, 111.
Each of the cars arc decorated with
banners reading, "From Deadwood to
Aurora," and with the namoof the mine
from which it is taken. The train is a
special sent out by the mine owners for
tho purpose of advertising tho resources
of tho Black Hills.
Met Instant Death.
County Auihtob Lane, of Mcadc
County, met with almost instant death
while hunting with a party of friends
near Bear Butte. When the party went
into camp Mr. Lane was detailed to
build the camp fire, and while chopping
tho kindling the ax liew out of his hand
and entered his leg below the knee,
completely severing the main artery,
from which ho bled to death in fivo
minutes.
Seateaced aa Unnatural Father.
William J. Lvox was sentenced by
Judge Aikcn3 at Canton to twenty years'
imprisonment in tbo penitentiary for
criminally assaulting bis 13-year-old
daughter. The evidence upon the trial
disclosed the fact that Lyon had been
criminally intimate with three of his
daughters for a period of several years.
The Bonus Still Holda (iood.
The $20,000 bonus offered by Dead
wood to any one who will build a 3100,
000 hotel there is stili available, but
since the recent experience the com
mittee announces that whoever accepts
the bonus mut prove his financial abil
ity to fulfill the contract.
Gardaer Sueoeeds Nowrla.
Gov. Mellette has appointed Wm.
Gardner, of Bapld City, as Judge of the
Seventh Circuit to fill the vacancy
caused by tho resignation of Judge
Nowlin.
Will Wear Them Oat.
The. United States officers at Sioux
Falls aro no longer reticent about the
facts connected with tho indictments
found against the officers of the Louis-
I iana Lottery Company. The fixing of
the bonds at $2,000 each is considered
exceptionally small for men of the re
ptited wealth of the psi'ties Indicted.
District Attorney Sterling, whd lias
chargo of the prosecution of the lottery
people, said in an intervievh "The for
ernment is determined to prosecute the
lottery company until it secures convic
tion or an acquittal upon every one of
the eighteen counts in each of the in
dfctfrJent. I can say that the United
States Is terribly ih earnest about the
matter, and if a 'conviction cannot be
secured the Louisiana Lottery will be
worn with trials. They will have tti
keep a special train on the go constant
ly to answer to tho arraignments. South
Dakota is not the only place where in
dictments can be secured. There is
ample C7ldence to secure tneir aiionu
ance in all of the United States courts
of the country, and I presume that un
less they stop using tho malls they will
find themselves in a sorry pickle."
Attempt mt Train Wrecking.
Ax attempt was made deaf Deadwood
to wreck the fast Burlington & Missodrl
freight by placing an obstruction in the
shape of a two-inch wire cablo across
the track. The speed .that the train
was going alone saved it from being
ditched and the loss of several lives.
Victims or tho Drunk Disease.
Twenty patients aro being cured of

That She Has Been Poisoned.
Miss Lauka, eldest daughter of Hon.
V. P. Peabody, or Nebama City, Is suf
fering from a peculiar hallucination of
the mind to tho effect that she has been
poisoned. Mentally she suffered so that
it was necessary to call in a physician.
All that a skilled physician and loving
friends could do has been done to ease,
the young lady's mind and rctore her to
health once more. She is slowly recup
erating.
She Was Determined to Die.
Mrs. Riley Funk, wife of a section

herself into the river from tho bridge.
She was rescued by men who saw her
jump and was taken home. The woman
is insane. After reaching the house she
began smashing up the furniture and
created considerable disturbance. Offi
cers were called in and after fastening
the woman's bands and feet succeeded
in taking her to the county jail without
allowing her to injure herself.

BOIES IS RE-ELECTED
BY A PLURALITY GREATER THAN
BEFORE.
Che Staid Senate aad Eatlre State Ticket
Probably Fellow the Head of the Ticket
-Indications Tljat the Hus I Kepah
Hcaa by Five or Sit.
The result of Tuesday's clce-ton in
Iowa is practically settled on the head
of the ticket. Gov. BoWs' plurality will
not vary 500 either way from 9,000. He'
carried forty counties, with pluralities)
aggregating 32,762. Wheeler carried
fifty-nino counties, giving 23,880 in plu
ralities, giving Boies 8,832 in the lead;.
These returns are based on dispatches
from ninety-eight County Auditors of(
the State, and are as nearly reliable as
anytning unomciai can oc iw );'
ntrn fiov. Boles had 0.564 plurality, an
tho entire Republican state ticket wa
fleeted excent Governor. It is barel
celhlu that nnn nr turn Ronnhlican
mav have Dulled through by a scratch,
but tho probability is that S. L. Bestow
Is elected Lieutenant-Governor, L. G.'
Kinnc Supreme Judge, Peter A. Dey
Railroad Commissioner, and J. B.,
Knoepfler Superintendent. ThoScnato
from latest reports stands twenty-four
Republicans, one People's party man,
ono Independent and twenty-four Dem
ocrats. The House consists of fifty
three Republicans, forty-six Democrats
and ono People's party man, Daniel
Campbell.
Tho Alliance candidate, Westfall, for
Governor, received about 15,000 votes.
The Alliance carried one county for
Governor, Monroe, one for Representa
tive, Montgemerv, and tho Montgomery
Mills Senatorial district. The Prohibi
tion vote has not been reported, except
n a few instances, but it is probably)
very light.

JUMPED OUT OF A CAR.
Keraarkable Experience or a Somnambu
list Traveling la Iowa.
James S. Claguk, a stock raiser of
Greeley, Col., had a remarkable experi
ence while traveling through Iowa near
Burlington lie walked into the police
station hatless, coatlcss and generally
dilapidated, and said that the first thing
he remembered since taking a sleeper
and going to bed was being awakened
by a violent fall. He found himself
lying In a ditch at the side of the rail
road, badiy bruised. He could see tho
lights of a city in the distance and
walked towards them, arriving in Bur
lington. It is Mr. Clague's opinion that,
being a somnambulist, he jumped out
of tho window in his sleep, while the
train was running at full speed. An in
vestigation of the matter by the police
and tho railway officials established tho
truth of the man's story, for the con
ductor of the slcepin? car in which the
man had taken i c- a reported him
missing.
To Be Bred to Allertoa.
C. W. Williams, of Independence,
has received notice from Consul General

bred to Allerton. Zoe B is owned by a
German prince who is an enthusiastic
promoter of trotting horse interests in
that country. This is the first mare
ever shipped across the country to be
bred to an American trotting horse.
Adopted Storm Lake College.
The Synod of Iowa has adopted the
