A
Kentucky’s Bloody F actions.
Two Families Come Together in Bloody
Cellision.
News was received at Louisville lust
week of an engagement that had come
off some days before between the How-
ard and Turner factions near Harlan
Court House. James Dean, of Howard’s
party, was killed nd five others wound- |
ed, among whom are Wilson Howard
and one of his principalsupporters named
Jennings. It is said that Howard’s in-
juries may prove fatal. Three of the
Turner party were also wounded.
The Turners have been in possession
of the town for more than a week.
Their leader is John Turner just 17 vears
nf age. Howard’s forces have been in
;amp one mile from town. There are
sbout forty men in each crowd, all
equipped with Winchesters and revol-
vers. Turner led his followers 1n an at-
tack on the Howard camp. The attack.
ing party got in the first work, but were
finally driven back to town.
A report reached Pineville at 11
o’clock this morning that the Howard
forces in Harlan enraged by the battle
of yesterday, and the probably fatal
wounding of their leader, left camp last
night and started for Harlan Court
House, intending to kill everybody that
belongs to the opposition and burn the
town. G. C. Hutt, Clerk of the Harlan
Connty Court, at Pineville, is afraid to
go home, though he has no connection
whatever with the trouble.
The trouble began two months ago,
when State troops were sent up to en-
force order. Some time since they were
withdrawn, since which the outlaws
have thrown off all restraints and or-
ganized under the leadership of Wils
Howard, and are encamped near the
town. The Law and order forces which
comprise the Turner crowd, under the
leadership of County Judge Wilson
Lewis, are intrenched in the Court
House. On Saturday afternoon John
Howard, aged 19 years, brother of Wils,
visited the town where his father lives.
Finley Smith, son of Wash Smith, one
of the wealthiest men in Harlan county,
was also in town. The Smiths were re-
lated by marriage to John Cawood, the
wealthy farmer who, with his hired man,
Hezekiah Hall, was killed cn Friday,
October 11, by Wils Howard's gang.
A nephew of John Cawood, named
Charles Cawood, married a daughter of
Wash Smith and the sister of Finley
Smith. They belong to the Law and
Order party.
John Cawood was a brother-in-law of
County Judge Lewis. Wils Howard
wanted him out of the way, and he and
Hall were killed.
The Law and Order party were great-
ly exercised over this,and were consider-
ing means by which Cawood and Hall’s
slayers could be brought to justice when
the last fight occurred. Just how it was
brought about no one seemed to know,
and the point is disputed as to whether
Finly Smith or John Howard fired first.
The shooting occurred about 50’clock
on Saturday afternoon. Howard com-
municated with his brother, who vowed
vengeance, and on Sunday intelligence
was received that word had been dis-
patched to all the outlaws to rendezvous
within a short distance of the town.
Thereupon Judge Lewis called the
citizens of the village together, and after
arming themselves they'took up quarters
in the Court House building. Harlan
Court House is so situated that a war
may be waged upon men in it with the
attacking party well protected. The
town has about 400 inhabitants.
Simultaneously with the above infor-
mation came the intelligence that a man
named Craig was killed last Sunday by
ex-Deputy United States Marshal James
Giles. The killing grew out of the murder
ot Bob Craig by Howard's party two
months ago. Craig had been paying
attention to Gile’s wife during the De-
puty’s trip from home. Giles came
here last week as a special bailiff to
guard prisoners.
The Last of the Sea Serpent.
Captain William T. Smith, of the
barque Nautilus, has written the follow-
ing letter from oft Valparaisc:—¢“The sea
serpent is dead. On the night of the 15th
of last month, off Cape Berkly, Gelapa-
gos Island, about nine a. m., his snake-
ship was seen about thirty yards from
the ship. The sea was smooth and very
little wind, so we all had a good look at
him. We estimated his length at about
eighty feet, and he was about as large as
a barrel in the thickest part. The head
was shaped like a snake, only on the
extreme end of the upper jaw there was
a ridge or bunch. The head was about
three feet in length, and about two feet
back of the head was a mane of hair.
No fins were seen. The tail was long
and tapering, and shaped like that of an
eel. We all had a good view of him
while he was slowly coming toward the
ship. The captain and mate loaded two
bomb guns, banged away at him, and
for about fifteen minutes there was quite
a “circus,” lashing the water with his
tail and running his head out four or
five feet. At last he ran out his head,
whizzed around and sank—dead. Both
bombs hit him. When he went down
he was not more than twenty feet from
the ship, and so, of course, we had a
good look at him. We spoke the barque
Bertha, Capt. Jenkins, a few days after,
and he told us that a large serpent was
seen off Reodondo Rock, by Captain
Jones in the Camilia several years ago.

Please Tell.
1f the Republican nominee will satis-
factorily answer the several questions
here propounded, he will greatly oblige,
&e.:
Please tell us, Mr. Boyer, why you
opposed the ballot reform bill 2 Wasn’t
that a good measureand don’t you want
honest elections ? de
Also, Mr. Boyer, please inform the
people why you opposed an investiga-
tion of the Sinking Fund. 1sn’t it right
to have things straightened up and made
plain wo the understanding of the citizen
voters of the Commonwealth? If the
Sinking Fund transaction was a proper
one, why were you ashamed to have it
investigated ?
Will you kindly explain, Mr. Boyer,
before you ask the support of working-
men of the State, why the Republican
Legislature killed the labor bills
which the miners and laborers asked
them to pass? The men who earn their
bread in the sweat of their faces would like
to know this.— Lock Haven Democrat.
Mrs. Harrison a Social ‘Failure.
Mrs Harrison bids fair to prove a so-
cial failure—not because she is not a
good womau or is intentionally disagree-
able. Buiit is a deplorable fact that
both the president ard his wife seem to
lack that personal magnetism and tact
that count for more in the White House
i than party fealty or puritanical princi-
ples.
Mrs. Harrison is colder even in a so-
cial way than her husband. If he is
snow then she is ice, and the manner as-
sumed during the Knights’ reception at
the White House, if it is to be cosidered
a fair sample of her social code, cannot
{ fail to make her intensely unpopular.
{ In striking contrast to the White
House reception was that of Calumet
Place, tenvered by Mrs. John A. Logan.
The presidential reception to the
, Knights was not decided until Monday
morning, while some weeks ago Mrs.
Logan expressed her intention to in some
manner acknowledge their presence.
She proposed to bear all expenses her-
self. Washington commanderies gallant-
ly refused to allow that , and, while her
liberality was not taxed, courtesy and
tact were laid under heavy strair. But
she rose to the occasion, and during the
long hours of reception stood up, not
only allowing her hand to be shaken,
but returning a cordial pressure, smiling
into the faces of her guests and impar-
tially dropping hasty little words of wel-
come or adieu.
MRS. LOGAN AND MRS. HARRISON AT ODDS
Between Mrs Harrison and Mrs. Lo-
gan and the cabinet ladies this en-
campment has been the means of inaug-
urating what is probably an all winters
war. The story goes that, anticipating
the importance of her intended reception,
Mrs. Logan, contrary to her habit since
her widowhood, personally called on
the ladies of the cabinet and invited
them to recieve with her. They all de-
clined on one pretense or another, and
to make it worse Mrs. Harrison did
not invite Mrs. Logan to recieve with
her at the White House.
Considering the invitation extended
to the cabinet ladies and that she was the
only woman knighted in America, her
husband’s relation to the order, and her
own importance on this occasion, Mrs.
Logan, it is currently thought, had eve-
ry reason to expect discrimination in her
favor.
Bat itis hinted that Mrs. Harrison is
too good a politician to foster an incipi-
ent presidential boom by pushing Mrs.
Logan to the front. The hold upon the
G. A. R., and the Masonic order which
Mrs Logan is evid ntly determined to
maintain, can scarcely be explained on
any other ground than her well-known
interest in the future of General Alger, of
Michigan. So, whatever slight the ad-
mimstratin may put on Mrs. Logan, it
could not be construed here on any
other ground.
A Hard Fight Between Outlaws and a
Sheriffs Posse.
Over One Hundred Shots Were Fired in
the Battle and Some Deputies Killed
and Siz Others Were Wounded.
BirmiNGHAM, Oct. 26.—Rube Bur-
rows, the noted Alabams train robber,
murderer and outlaw,has again defeated
a sheriff’s posse and added two men to
his long list of victims. Late yester-
day afternoon, Borrows and one mem-
ber of his gang, supposed to have been
Ben Thornton, were surrounded near
Brooksville, Blount county, but the out-
laws opered fire,and at the first volley De-
puty Sheriffs Henry Anderson and Pen-
wood Ward fell dead, the former shot |
through the head and the latter through |
the breast.
The officers returned the fire, and
over 100 shots were exchanged. The |
posse were armed only with shot guns |
and pistols, and as they were 200 yards |
from the outlaws they were at great |
disadvantage, as the latter were armed |
with repeating rifles of large caliber.
James Herron, one of the posse, was
dangerously wounded and five others
whose names could not be learned re- |
ceived slight flesh wounds. The outlaws |
fired only atone point in the surrounding
line and cutting a gap in it they made a
rush for liberty and escaped, no pursuit
being made by the posse, who remained
to care for the dead and wounded.
Gathering up their killed and wound-
cd the posse returned to Oneonta, theoun -
ty seat,to await assistance and better
arms. Sheriff Morris secur:d no help
here and said he would make no further
attempt to capture Burrows with the
arms at-hiscommand.
They Owe It Nothing But a Drubbing.
Neither the Knights ~f Labor nor any
other workingmen in the State owe the
Republican party anything. The Re-
publican majority in the late Legislature
clubbed the labor bills to death and Boy-
er, the now candidate of that party for
State Treasurer, helped to doit. And
vet he bas the brass to stand up and ask
the workingmen to vote for him! Mr.
Powderly and the K. of L. are in favor
of the Australian system of voting, be-
cause it protects the employee in an hon-
est exercise of the franchise, but Boyer is
oppused to it, for the reason that he
doesn’t want the employee or the poor
man to have a fair show at the polls. He
considers them chattels, mere slaves, as
it were, and thinks they shouid be con-
trolled and made to vote just as their
employers tell them. Workingmen, re-
member this on the 5th of November
when you come to cast your votes.—ZL¢"

Rosecrans’ Stand For Lincoln.
NEw York, Oct., 27.— Edmund Kirk,
in a long communication to the Sun |
tells of how, in the spring of 1863, bel
|
was sent by Horace Greeley to ask Gen-
eral Rosecrans to take the Republican
nomination for President againts Presi-
dent Lincoln. Rosecrans was in the
field, and replied: “No, my place 1s
here. The country gave me my education, |
and so has a right to my military ser- |
vices, and it educated me for precisely |
this emergency. So this, and not the |
Presidency, is my post of duty, and I
cannot, without violating my conscience,
leave it. But let me tell you, and I;
wish you would tell your friends who |
are moving in this matter, that you are |
mistaken about Mr. Lincoln. He is in
his right place. I am in a position to
know, and if you live you will see that I
am right about him.”

munication with headquarters, and the
last intelligence from him, just received,
relates to bis actions three days ago.
He has been putout in the woods and
told to hew his way among the moun-
taineers, and to expect to travel all day
without seeing a soul, and to make his
best speeches to groups of a half dozen.
“McKinney hasn't got mo boodle,
said a mountaineer, giving an account
of his start on his wild campaign. “But
he’s got the most beautiful smile I ever
see, and comin’ from the high end of his
six foot the fellers kin hear a voice jess

Thus it is apparent that the Democrats

ney’s personality. What that will re-
