NIGHT Frankfort, Ky.——In- offering $500 re- ward for the apprehension and con- victicn of the gang of night riders who attacked a negro, A. Walker, in his home in Hickman county last week and slew him, his wife and two children, Governor Willson: made an extreme appeal to the people of the state. The governor says: “If two or three men had gone to this poor cabin and murdered this family the crime would have shocked humanity with revelation of incredible wickedness, brutality and dastardly cowardice. That a large number— some $0 men—joined in such a crime multiplies its cowardliness and wick- edness fifty fold and makes every member of the band guilty of mur- der in the first degree, the basest, wickedest and most cowardly murder conceivable in mortal mind.” The governor calls upon the people to assemble in their respective neigh- borhoods in the counties to organize “and to take stern, prompt and effec- tive measures to punish every cow- ardly scoundrel who rides the roads to threaten his neighbors, to put an immediate end to lynching, murder and arson.” NEW STAMPS DESIGNS Are Announced by the Postoffice De- partment—Artistic Simplicity the Keynote.

FIRE DEPARTMENT HINDERED Water Pipes Had Been Broken by Floods Resulting from Cloud- bursts in Summer. : El Paso, Tex.—For the second time in two years, the town of Bis- bee, Ariz., was swept by fire on the night of October 14. The loss is es- timated at between $1,000,000 and $1,- 500,000. This is the biggest fire in the his- tory of the city. At 9 o'clock p. m., 50 acres of the business and resi- dence sections had been swept clean of everything. The fire started at the Grand hotel, in Main street, in Tombstone can- yon, and swept north to School Hill, burning everything in its path, A portion of the residences on School Hill were burned, and Clausen Hill also suffered. One-fourth of the resi- dences of the city were burned as well as many valuable business blocks. i The Angelus hotel was dynamited by the volunteer fire fighters in an effogt to stay the rapid progress of the mes, but as a strong breeze was blowing up the’ canyon, the fire was carried ahead of it furiously. The Opera House, the Women’s Toggery, the Big Fair store and many other leading business houses were destroy- ed. Bisbee is built at the junction of Tombstone and Brewery gulches, and the houses extend up the sides of the high mountains surrounding. Owing to the severe fioods that occurred there this summer, due to.cloudbursts, many of the water pipes were broken and out of repair, and the firemen were powerless in their efforts to sub- due the flames. Scores of volunteers were overcome: It is believed that a number of per- sons lost their lives in the work of dynamiting. Many who were at work with the fighters in their mad efforts to save the city are unac- counted for. Bisbee was founded about 20 years ago by Phelps Dodge and is at pres- ent a city of about 25,000 inhabitants.

THREW THINGS AT POLICE ———— Twenty-Four Suffragettes and Tweive Men Placed ‘Under Arrest. Many Persons Fainted. London.—The climax fragetie campaign was reached on the night of October 13 when an enormous mob hemmed in parliament and stopped traffic in all streets lead- ing to Westminster. o The heroine of the day was Mrs. Travers Symons, formerly secretary of the suf- and independent member of parlia- ment, who reached the door of the house of commons by strategy. The house was solemnly debating a bill to prevent children from cigaret smok- ing, when the woman dashed past the doorkeeper to a position in front of the speaker's chair and shouted shril- ly “Leave off discussing children and talk about women.” Three officials seized Mrs. Symons and carried her out bedily. She was then led to the outer door and dis- missed. As a result of the coup, an order was issued that hereafter women shall not be admitted to the building on any pretext whatever, and in the future the historic grille will not screen feminine spectators. The appeal issued by the suffra- gettes a few days ago for 50,000 per- sons to help them “rush” parliament at 7:30 o'clock this evening was the most successful stroke yet. Not much less than twice that number responded to the call. Parliament was in a state of siege. A close triple line of police was drawn around the three sides of the square in front of the building. The yard within the ‘gates swarmed with police and 200 guarded the terrace in the rear against assault by water, which the women twice attempted. A small fleet of police boats also pa- trolled the Thames approaches. All the mounted police in London an:d suburbs had been mobilized at tiie trouble center and loads of hay were tnstacked in the streets £)r the horses. The whole police force, to- gether with cavalry, infantry and ma. rines numbering more than 5,000, was kept busy in restraining the push- ing, struggling masses, especially about Trafalgar square. The police were pelted with vege- tables and some stones in a few minor skirmishes that occurred, but nobody was seriously hurt. Twenty-four suffragettes and 12 of the unemployed were placed under arrest. Many persons fainted in the crush; a few were trampled upon and taken to the hospitals.
