Adjatant General Farley of South Caro-

Columbia, S. C., July 31.—Adjutant
General Farley has issued a reply to
Senator John L. Irby, following up his
recent aback on the senate r. He charges
Senator Irby with lying and with haying
written the newspaper article which or-
iginated the trouble. He says, in the
course of his reply : “I am prepared to
prove you at heart a traitor to your
friend, Governor Tillman, a traitor to
the alliance and a traitor to the reform
movement, and if I hear anything more
Lom you, John, I’ll do it.”
The general’s closing words are these:
“I had rather be an honest statesman or
a citizen out of a job than a political
trickster and trimmer or a deep-dyed vil-
lain in the United States senate.”

CLEAR THE BEACH.
The beach committee, consisting of
Aiderman Jaques, Baudenau and Wil-
liams, met at the city hall this morning
to consider matters pertaining to the
beach. The only matter discussed was
the obstructions in front and a little
west of the Beach hotel. There are
numerous posts near the foot of Center
and Tremont streets that greatly inter-
fere with the drive on the beach.
It was decided by the committee this
morning to have these obstructions re-
moved and the beach cleared from Sev-
enteenth to Twenty-seventh street. They
will recommend to the council that the
roller bath houses now standing near
the foot of Twenty-fourth and Twenty-
filth streets be removed at least two
blocks west, so as not to interfere with
the drive on the beach, as the space for
that purpose is at present very narrow
and they greatly obstruct the thorough-
fare. As the owners of these places pay
no license to the city the committee are
at a loss to know why they should be
allowed to occupy so much space on the
beach to the discomfort of the citizen*
in general.

CHRISTENING.
The little daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Joseph Erhold was baptised at St. Jo-
seph’s church last nigkt by Father Wei-
mar. The godfather was Ferdinand
Young and Mrs. George Schwoebel acted
as godmother. After the ceremony the
party, consisting of about thirty couple,
went to the residence of Mr. and Mrs.
Erhold, on Ninth street and avenue I,
where a bountiful i epast had been pre-
pared. Singing, music and dancing was
k; pt up until a late hour. The evening
was a most enjoyable one.
TWO P3IZ S. -
Galveston Boys Capture Two Guns at
the Austin Fncanopment.
The Lasker light guards and the Sealy
rifles returned this morning from the an-
nual ercampment at Austin. The Sea-
lye were not in as good spirits as the
Laskers, who captured two prizes by
their goed bebsvior. They won first
prize for cleanliness and good appear-
ance of their quarters and second prize
for discipline, the boys behaving them-
selves much better than any company
on the camp grounds.
When they arrived in the city this
j a mem-
ber of the firm of Sass, Cohen & Co.,who
took them to Fred Heaves’ place, where
a beautiful lunch was spread for them.
They remained there an hour or so and
went to their respective homes to rest
until morning,when each will assume his
duties in the various business houses of
the city.
The Washington guards are expected
home this evening and a reception is be-
ing prepared for them.
The prizes for the competitive drill
have not been announced. The an-
nouncement is looked for to-morrow.
The Edelweiss Club Take a Sail oa the
Bay.
Last night the members of the Edel-
weiss club and their friends chartered
the schooner Rosena and went out on
the bay for a moonlight sail. The boat
left pier 26 at 6 o’clock with about fifty
people aboard beside the orchesLa. Cap-
tain Lewis and Captain Greenrood were
in charge of the vessel. Emil Ahlers
was master of ceremonies and Charles
Kleinecker, Gus Pautele and W. Sene-
chal had charge of the refreshments.
Music, singing and dancing amused the
party until a very late hour.
No Section of Country 'lore Popularly
Represented at the World’s Fair.
No section of country, east, north or
west, is taking a greater interest in the
world’s fair at the present time than
that portion lying south of Maron and
Dixon’s line, and the typical southerners,
easily distinguishable in the immense
throng by the graceful military bearing
of the gentlemen and the rare beauty of
the ladies, are to be met in great num-
bers on the exposition grounds, in the
corridors of the leading hotels and at
the various social gatherings in the
World’s Fair city.
To a large extent the success of the
fair depends upon the southern people;
the board of managers expect hundreds
of thousands of people from south of the
Ohio river to attend the exposition, and
from present indications they will not be
disappointed. The railroads are making
extensive preparations to take care of the
people, and their comfort enroute is
fully assured.
The Big Four route, which is the only
line making connection in Central Union
station, Cincinnati, with through trains
of the E. T. V. and G., Queen and Cres-
cent route, Louisville and Nashville rail-
road, Kentucky Central railway, and
Chesapeake and Ohio railway naturally
forms the popular outlet for southern
travel, and to accommodate the business
five elegant vestibule trains, with parlor
cars, sleeping cars, dining cars and ele-
gant coaches are run daily from Cincin-
nati to Chicago, stopping at .Midway
Plaisance, the main entrance to the
World’s fair, Sixtieth street, Hyde park, an(j j.{ew York stands today in the atti-
Fifty-first street, Thirty-ninth street,
Twenty-second street, and running into
the new Twelfth street station on the
Lake front.
All the world’s fair hotels and board-
ing houses are located adjacent to the
Big Four stations, aud passengers via
this popular line avoid the long, tire-
some transfers across the city necessary
by all other lines from Cincinnati.
There is positively no other line landing
passengers at the stations named, and as
it affords, in addition to the comfort and
convenience, a great saving of time and
expense, all the people of the south who
contemplate a trip to the world’s fair
should be sure to ask for tickets via the
Big Four route. For full information
address D. B. Martin, General Passen-
ger Agent, Cincinnati.

but the time limit and the set days on

Sherman Reg’ster: Sherman hardly
deserves to succeed. She frequently
shuts her eyes while great opportunities
pass by and are gobbled up by other
cities. For instance, Whitesboro is now
gathering hundreds of dollars weekly
from the normal school which Sherman
could have had for the asking.
Fort Worth Gazette: A report made
by the committee appointed by the New
York chamber of commerce to lobby for
the repeal of the Sherman law discloses
that a thousand persons are now in its
employ working up sentiment in favor of
unconditional repeal. These are some
of the people who are howling loudly
about the “selfishness of the mine own-
ers.”
The Tide Turning to America—Gold
Coming Into the Treasury Through
the Custom Houses—The Gold Bal-
ance at the Present Time.
Washington, D. C., July 29.—-Treas-
ury officials are of the opinion that the
gold tide is turning and that they also
point to the fact that there has appeared
within the last few days a considerable
amount of gold in the custom house re-
ceipts as an indication of this fact. It
is stated to be a fact that 58 per cent of
the precious metal appeared in the state-
ment for the ten days ending July 20,
while for the same period gold certifi-
cates to 5 per cent of the total receipts
were also taken in.
The gold balance yesterday was $96,-
368,599. It would have been much
nearer the $100,000,000 limit but for the
policy adopted by Secretary Carlisle to
make voluntary payments of gold at the
subtreasury in New York so long as there
ip no disposition to export it. He is en-
couraged to follow this plan by the fact
that customs receipts show an increase
A Large Mass Meeting of Choctaws and
Chickasaws Favors Partition of Land.Fi
Otka, I. T., July 30.-—A mass meet-
ing of Choctaw and Chickasaw7 Indians
was held six miles west of here to dis-
cuss the project of taking laud in sever-
alty. Jones Wolf, a Chickasaw chief,
discussed the situation very seriously
and several speeches were made in favor
of partitioning the lands. These met
with general favor by the full bloods.
The meeting was the largest gathering
of Indians ever known in this county.
The condition of the condemned Choc-
taws was fully discussed and it was
unanimously agreed that the, lives of
these men were of more importance
than the country. It is the impression
of the Choctaw Indians that if these
men are killed legally the autonomy of
the Choctaw and Chickasaw nations will
be at an end.
in Spokane. They were met in the Cas-
cade mountains beyoiyi Columbia by a
committee sent out and were received at
the train and conveyed to the hotel.
Saturday evening the vice president
and members of his party spoke to 10,000
people from an improvised stand in front
of the hotel and after that a public re-
ception was held in the parlors of the
hotel. Yesterday the party attended
services in the First Presbyterian church.
In the afternoon they were entertained
at the home of Louise Ziegler, an old
citizen of Illinois.

A Right Crowd at the Fair.
Chicago, July 30.—The fair was open
to the public today, that is the gates
were open, but they might as well have
been c’osed, for the public did not seem
to care to take advantage of the fact.
Not since the fair opened has the at-
tendance been so light. The grounds
had much the same appearance as last
Sunday when the gates were closed.
Nearly all the state buildings were
present excursion rates are low enough, closed, so were many of the structures
containing exhibits. And in the build-
ings open a large portion of the exhibits
was covered up. All the restaurants,
cigar stands and drinking fountains were
closed. There was no attempt to make
thing attractive to visitors.

The Anti-Home Rule Leader Brought
to Time by Mr. Gladstone.
London, July 29.—Joseph Chamber-
lain’s amendment to the financial clause
of the home rule bill, providing that the
Uxxnu vul)luuJn xa Dxxxx„ ________. Pro viona^ ar rangemen t th at I r iah taxes
of gold equal to the authorized gold pay- should be collected for six years by the
ments. The treasury gold holdings are
now $188,000,000, including $90,000,000
in certificates. Those certificates Janu-
ary 30 amounted to $120,000,000. The
reduction is attributed to the suspension
of the issue of certificates of April 15,
since which date those outstanding have
been reduced nearly $20,000,000, while
the net gold belonging to the govern-
ment is only $4,000,000 or $5,000,000
less than at any time, and promises to
return soon to the $100,000,000 limit.
It will then devolve upon the secretary
to issue certificates, but should the free
sold be exhausted again suspension of
the issue of certificates will follow.
Governor Waitt’g Opinion.
Omaha, Neb., July 30.—The Colerado
delegates to the Chicago silver conven-
tion passed through the city today.
“This crowd is for free and unlimited
coinage,” said one delegate, “and if we
get free and unlimited soup we will take
it like men.”
Governor Waite said: “If congress
repeals the present law without giving
us a better one it will kill Colorado.”
He argued that Colorado’s industries
were interdependent and to cripple one
would be to cripple all.
Ex-Governor Routt said the delegates
would not decide on a plan of action
until after the meeting in Chicago to-
morrow. ..

house several days. It was this amend-
ment that brought forth the sharp at-
tack upon Mr. Chamberlain by Mr.
Gladstone, in the course of which the
prime minister compared Mr. Chamber-
lain with the “devil’s .advocate,” a party
in the Catholic chuach, whose duty it is,
when the name of a person is propsed
for beatification, to bring forward all
possible objection against the proposed
canonization.
Mr. Chamberlain said that the prime
minister’s speech was a ferocious one
and took him completely by surprise.
He was not aware that in speaking to
his motion he had said anything that
justified the prime minister’s extreme
energy and violence.

THOMPSON’S INVITE.
Evening Tribune herewith acknowl-'
edges the receipt of a cordial invitation
from K. H. Wade, general manager,
and H. G. Thompson, general passenger
agent of the Southern California rail-
way, to be present at the formal and offi-
cial opening of the new passenger depot
of the road erected at Los Angeles, Cal.,
which will be known as “La Grande sta-
tion.”
The new depot, judging by the engrav-
ing received with the invitation, is a
large and imposing, in fact a beautiful
structure built in the Moorish style, and
s a fine piece of architecture. Mr.
Thompson, as it will be well remem-
bered, formerly held a similar position
with the Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe,
in fact always was one of the most pop-
ular officials connected with that road,
and it was due to his untiring energy
that the now so well known Columbian
limited was first put into service.
The Southern California railway, with
which he is now connected, is a part of
the great Atchison system.

The Usual Kicker Not Satisfied—Wants
More for Nothing.
It is said that a great many adult and
presumably inteligent people were diseat-
fied with the mock bull fight at the
Beach lawn Saturday night. It is said
in explanation that these inteligent
people bad been watching that little
two-lath fence enclosing a part of the
lawn, and that they had come to believe
that a real live, roaring bull would
cavort around that forty-foot pen, chas-
ing real live matadors and toreadors
mounted on real live, prancing, snorting
and richly caparisoned steeds; that these
inteligent people expected to see several
real live bulls slain, as many real live
horses disembowled and as many torea-
dors and matadors gored to death—-and
all for the price of car fare. That all
this was not done free for the entertain-
« ment of these people who want $10
worth of fun for 10 cents worth of car-
fare they were disgusted, and have roast-
ed the “fake” without stint. This, not-
withstanding the fake amused the chil-
dren and many grown people probably
more than would have the real blood
and entrails.
It is tp please the children and those
who do not want everything for nothing
that the mock bull fight will be repeated
every night this week. Those who do
not want to see it can look on the deep
blue sea -while the fake is going on. The
Mendals will also appear each jiight
this week.
Will the Rs-Rlected Aldermen Hold
Over Another Term.
There is considerable conjecture just
at present as to who will constitute the
joint committee on fresh water supply.
There has always been a doubt in the
minds of a great many citizens as to the
legality of appointing such committee,
but that question is not being agitated
at present. It is only whether or not the
re-elected aidermen will hold their office
on the committee or will new ones have
to be appointed.
The old joint committee, consisted of
Waterworks Commissioners Newson,
Reppin, Schneider, Hayes and Smith,
and Aidermen Harris, Wegner, Fowler,
Boysen and Schmidt.
The new waterworks commissioners
are Fowler, May, Marwitz, Reisel and
Miller.
The aidermen who were on the com-
mittee before are Harris, Wegner and
Boysen. There being two vacant places
on the committee now the question is:
Did these gentlemen’s connection with
the fresh water supply die with their ex-
piration of term of office as aidermen?
If so, five aidermen will have to be
appointed by the mayor to serve on the
joint water committee.
City Attorney Ballinger has been
asked for an opinion on the subject,
which he will submit at the next meet
ing of the council Monday, July 7.

KAHN’S CONFECTIONEBY.
Against Which R” si dents Protest In
Several Languages.
Some months ago, three or four, so it
is reported, the city health, or some
other department, constituted a piece of
marsh on the south side of avenue L,
between Forty-third and Forty-fourth
streets, a new dumping ground. It is
supposed by some of the peop’e in the
immediate vicinity that this is private
property and that possibly the owner
has made some arrangement with the
department to have it filled.
At any rate the dumping of offal and
refuse from the city is done theie, and
those v7ho live in reach of the awful
stench are in no pleasant mood. The
dumpage consists of everything gath-
ered by the garbage wagons, and stale
fish, dead chickens, cats, dogs and “sick”
predominate. The ground is the popu-
lar feasting place of the carrion bird.
Those who live within reach of the
stench say their'proximity to the ceme-
tery should be sufficient.
It is said a petition will be presented
to the health department asking for an
abatement of this nuisance.
This is another strong call for garbage
crematories.

gon gave te timony very damag-
ing to the woman’s character. Les
lie Richardson, her son, called him a
liar. Then a terrible scene followed in
open court. Ligon curs-d Richardson
and, drawing a murderous pistol, began
firing at him. The first shot struck
Richardson in the shoulder, but, bef re
the second couM be fired, Clark Rich-
ardson, his brother, ran forward with a
drawn knife and, springing at Ligon, cut
his throat from ear to ear. The wildest
excitement followed in the courtroom
and the Richardson boys were taken
away’ under guard. AU parties are well
connected and prominent in Franklin
county. More trouble is fearcd, as both
sides swear vengauce.

this had been attained in its highest
grade. He could not in those early
days have supposed that as former
Prussian minister and an exchancellor
of empire he would have been given
such a warm reception in Hanover.
He was all the more gratified at the
welcome extended to him, as it ex-
pressed the con’entment with which the
people accepted the past.

A Lond^reponTayX’re is „OT3id.MeDt Slevensoi. and party spent Sunday
erably more a’tention paid to the out-
break of customs war on the Russia-
German frontier than is usually given
such matters. This does not mean that
Europe is more keenly devoted to eco-
nomic subjects than before, but it is due
to a very widespread conviction that a
number of things not wholly7 economic
are involved. Of courte the tariff
coL-flict must hurt Russii vastly
more than Germany, the balance of trade
being in the latter’s favor in a propor-
tion of thirty to seven. This gratuitous
self injury on Russia’s side seems to have
been due in equal parts to tiickery and
impudence. She tried to humbug Ger-
many with a one-sided provisional agree-
ment in order to unload this year’s sur-
plus of grain upon her,, at the same
time counting upon being able to put the
screws on and compelling a lot of conces-
sions, her theory being that Germany is
in sore need of Russi >.n breadstuffs.
Tnis turns out to be a mistake. Ger-
many can get all the grain she wants
from America and India, and has turned
sharply round, raising all her duties
against Russia by 50 per cent, which is
practically prohibitive. This would not
in itself be exciting, but it is understood
that Russia has in the meantime ma-
neuvered to secure a treaty with Austria
and Roumania, which, if concluded, will
not only put Germany to a disadvantage
fisically, but imperil the very founda-
tion of the triple alliance. The merest
suggestion of this excites the gravest
uneasiness everywhere.
Hoke Hanged In Efifgy.
Rome is a little town in Ohio and it
seems has suffered, numerously by rea-
son of the reform in pension matters,
and in retaliation the indignant citizens
recently hanged and burned Secretary
Smith in effigy. The report says: A
number of pensions bad been suspended
and the climax was reached when the
pension of J. L. Reed, a vet-
eran of the Eleventh Illinois cav-
alry, aged 83 yeais, was dropped. Mr.
Reed served four years and five months
and his pension was his sole eusrport.
When he received the news of the sus-
pension he became a raving maniac. mornfn“g they w”e7e greeted by
The aroused citizens, led by John
Furnier, a democrat, proposed to hang
Smith in effigy. Saturday night 1000
people, irrespective of party, assembled
to participate in the ceremony. It was
intended to burn the president in effigy
also, but with more conservative coun-
seling it was not done. The effigy was
hung and afterwards burned.
Newsy Bri< fi ts.
A few days since Germany increased
the duty on Russian wheat 50 per cent.
Russia comes back by increasing, Au-
gust 1, the present maximum tariff on
all German importations to Russia 50
per cent.
Friends of Governor Fishbrck of Ar-
kansas in Galveston vs.ill be pleased to
learn that he is improving, and his phy-

and he was an earnest aud active friend
of this section in the struggle for the
deep water appropriation.
