Cole crossed the river into the Cherokee nation yesterday to arrest a horse thief and whisky peddler named Smith, who, they were told, was at a tent on the Alexander placa, about a mile nml a half from here. Arriving at the tent Cole rodo up on one side and Dalton on the other. S'eing a man at the door of the tent, Dalton inquired for Smith, who rushed out, pistol in hand. Dalton said: "Don't shoot; I want no trouble!" But Smith fired, shooting him in the left breast, inflicting a mortal wound. HOODWINKS THE LEADERS OF EXCLUSIVE SOCIETY IN NEWARK. MoiiSTO, Cal, Nov. 28.—A body was found hanging to a tree in Patterson's field, about half a mile west of Oakdale, Saturday. Investigation proved the body to be that of a boy mimed Frank McCutcheon, aged 16 years, and that he came to bis death at the hands of a mob. Oakdale has been visited by a great many fires recently, all of which gave unmistakable evidence of being tho work of an incendiary. Friday evening about 8 o'clock young McCutcheon was caught in the act of setting fire to a barn belonging to Mollester & Dunlap, and taken beforo Justice Warder, who held bim to answer before the superior court. Excitement was running high in Oakdale, and it was deemed a precautionary measuro to move the prisoner immediately to the county jail, and Constable James Sawantol started out at a late hour for this city. At Patterson's field the constable was overpowered by a crowd, who took the culprit out of the officer's charge and banged him to an oak tree In the field near the road. Deceased was a brother to the boy McCutcheon who was convicted and sentenced to eight years' imprisonment by the superior court of this county, a few months since, for tho murder of his stepbrother last Christmas, and has borne an unsavory reputation. Before being banged the boy confessed, acknowledging ten or twelve incendiary fires with which Oakland has been visited within the past two weeks. The discovery of the boy kindling the fire Saturday night caused him to be suspected of all the fires, and incited the populace to the unlawful act they committed. A man named Manuel has been arrested as an accessory. by a Mob. DISCOURSE BY REV. DR.

Washington, Nov. 28.—At 12 o'clock, noon, orre week from to-day, the Fiftieth congress will convene. The Democrat'', who have a majority of ten in the house of repre- exclusive of the Independents, some of whom will act with them, will orga:i 7 \ They will have a caucus on Saturday evodug for the purposo of nominating a speaker, a clerk, sergeant at arms, postmaster ami doorkeeper. It is conceded by all that Mr. John G. Carlisle, of Kentucky, will be th i nominee of the caucus for speaker, and that his re-election will not bo antagonized by any one in the party. John P. Leednm, of Ohio, will without doubt be renominated sergeant at arms, and Lycurgus Dal to », of Indiana, postmaster. So far no formidable opposition has arisen to the retention of these officers, John B. Clark, of Missouri, will probably be renominated clerk of the house. Ilis renomination has, until within a few days, been conceded on all sides, but a new aspirant for clerkship honors looms up in the person of William G. Raines, of Rochester, N. Y. He is the younger brother of George Raines, a New York Democratic state senator, who is a very prominent man in the party in that state. George Raines and his brother both arrived in Washington within a day or two. The older brother is here in the interest of his brother's candidacy. Their friends claim that the entire Democratic delegation to congress from New York, as well as many prominent Democrats from that state, among them ex-Mayor Murphy, of Troy, chairman of tho New York state Democratic committee, and Col. Fellows, indorse William G. Raines for tho position, and promise to surprise Gen. Clark and his friends with the strength that Raines will develop between now and the time that the caucus meets. In fact, they talk confidently of his nomination and election. Limerick, Nov. 28.—The attempt to hold a demonstration here yesterday in honor of the Manchester martyrs was frustrated by tho police, and resulted in a serious riot. Mr. John Mclnnerney, of New York, who came hero to preside over the ceremony of unveiling the statues of the martyrs, proceeded to deliver an oration in the presence of an immense crowd of people, when the polico appeared on the scene and forbade further exercises. The crowd hooted and jeered tho police, and cho latter attempted to disperse tlia gathering and clear the streets, using bayonets and batons freely. This summary action infuriated tho people, who made a desperate resistance, and many civilian constables were injured in the melee and taken to tho hospital. Newark, N. J., Nov. 28.—Newark society is just now bewailing tho fact tlint for several months it has been hoodwinked by an alleged scion of a noble family—John Henry Talbot—but who in reality was an ndvonturer. Talbot appeared in this city last March and appliod to E I ward Weston, the electrician, for work, stating that he was in pecuniary distress. At that time he claimed to have an acquaintance with the leading families of Newark, with whom he had crossed the ocean several years ago. Mr. Weston provided for him for several weeks, and then secured him a position with the Westing house Electrio company, at Plainfield. He remained there until about the 1st of October, when he returned to Newark, stating that he had lost his position by achnngo in the management of the company. Mr. Weston then employed bim as a copyist, but was obliged to discharge him on account of laziness. Brooklyn, Nov. 27.—This morning at tho Tabernacle, after explaining appropriate passages of Scripture, the Be v. T. Do Witt Talmage, D.D., gave out the following hymn, that was sung by tho congregation with groat heartiness: at/ion oil th.» part of the leaders. Tiiri Prohibition law hud been tried for two yer.rs and it had proved a failure. The Prohibitionists claim that iw did not have a fair trial. Tho constant agitation of prohibition for years has been tho only bad result I havo uotod so far as it allects tho city. There were certainly large quantities of liquor brought into tho city ev.-ry day from neighboring cities, and tho ! rge majority given for anti-Prohibition was not only a protest against the law, but against tho strife and bitterness engendered in the first campaign.

Fleming, I am certain that tho conservative men on both sides will como together and throw around tho retail salo of liquor all necessary restraints, and that it will be better for the city. There is a strong feeling here amoug leading men to settle all further disputes on this line. There is no contest probable. The election was fair. A fow wards were Crowded so that all tho voters who had registered could not poll their votes. This resulted from frequent challenging from earh side on account of non-payment of taxes. The decided majority against prohibition, and the further fact that a maj Drity was given in every ward in tho city and every precinct in the county except one bhows that the people were opposed to the pr esent law, without regard to class or condition. I have heard no dissatisfaction expressed at the result, and there is a feeling of confidence on the part all I have talked with that the citizens of Atlanta will come together on a proper law that will permit the sale of liquor and prevent its abuse, and that harmony will be restored and all pull together to increase tho prosperity of Atlanta, as they did before this agitation was commenced. Tho part tho women took in the election at the polls has been greatly exaggerated. War, always distressing, is especially ruinous in harvest time. When tho crops are all ready for tho sickle, to have them trodden down by cavalry horses and heavy supply trains gullying the fields is enough to make any man's hoart sick. When tho last great war broke out in Europe, and Franco and Germany were coming into horrid collision, I rode across their golden harvests and saw tho tents pitched and tho trenches dug in tho very midst of the ripo fields, tho long scythe of battle sharpening to mow down harvests of men in groat winrows of the dead. It was at this soason of harvest that the army of the Philistines came down upon Bethlehem. Hark to tho clamor of their voices, the neighing of their chargers, tho blare of their trumpets and the clash of their shields I The unwarrantable brutality of the police incensed the people in the houses and hotels along tho streets, who taunted the constables from the windows with cowardice. The police became reckless at this, and threw stones and other missies, many of them throwing their staves at the windows, smashing hundreds of panes of glass and inflicting severe cuts upon some persons who were unable to get out of the way. He then backed to a tree and a regular fight followed, in which the wife of Dixon was accidentally killed. Two bullets were put through Cole's coat, and the bark was peeled off the tree behind which he was sheltered. Finding a chance to escape, Cole hurried away on foot, and whon he had gone i short distance a man came out of the tent and approached Dalton, who was badly wounded, and fired two bullets into his head, causing instant death. Smith died from his wounds yesterday afternoon. Dixon is now in tho United States jail hospital and Mrs. Dixon is dead. Lowrey, the man who finished Dalton, is still at large, but will probably bo copturod, as all of the marshal's force ire in pursuit. The Rev. Geo- H.

Meanwhile tho resistance of tho people in the street', who resorted to tho use of stones and every conceivablo form of missile, became so formidable that tho police were compelled to send for tho military to aid them. The troops appeared, but they were not called into active service, ns the municipal officers of the city had succeeded in quieting the people and inducing them to return to their homes. Tho town was perfectly quiet at 11 o'clock last night, and no further trouble is expected.

Meanwhile Talbot had been cultivating the acquaintance of the best people in Newark and Plainfield. His representations had been accepted unquestioned, and his references to his noble relatives in England were implicitly believed. Houses that were hermetically sealed to all but the Belect few bad him for an honored guest, and he received invitations to nearly all the high class entertainments, his family connections fully atoning for his evident lack of means. Marquette, Mich., Nov. 28.—A terrible murder occurred Saturday night A drunken, worthless character, Larry Finn by name, killed his wife with an axe, chopping her head open and cutting the body fearfully. He defied the officer who hurried to tho scene, summoned by young Finn, 10 years old. A quarrel had been in progress, and the boy had been driven from the house. Tho deed was dono before he got back with the officer. The policeman suddenly caught Finn by the throat throngh the partially door, and jerking him outside, soon bad him in irons. ICet David and his men fall backl The Lord's host sometimes loses the day. But David kuew where to hide. Ho had been brought up in that country. Boys aro inquisitive, and they know all about the region where they were born and brought up. If you should go back to the old homestead, you could, with your eyes shut, find your way to the meadow, or the orchard, or the hill back of tho house, with which you were familiar thirty or forty years ago. So David know the cave of Adullam. Perhaps, in his boyhood days, ho had played "hide and seek" with his comrades all about the old cave; and though others might not have known it, David did. Travelers say there is only one way of getting into that cave, and that is by a very narrow path; but David was stout, and steady headed, and steady nerved; and so, with his throo brave staff officers, he goes along that path, findi his way into the cave, sits down, looks around at the roof and the dark passages of the mountain, feels very weary with the forced march, and water he must have or die. I do not know but there may have been drops trickling down the side of the cavern or that there may have been some water in the goat skin slung to his girdle, but that was not whn t he wonted. Ho wanted a deep, full, cold drink, such as a man gets only out of an old well with moss covered bucket. David remembered that very near that cave of Adullam there was such a well as that, a well to which he used to go In boyhood—the well of Bethlehem; and he almost imagines that he can hear the liquid plash of that well, and his parched tongue moves through his hot Hps as he says: "Oh, that one would give me drink of the water of the well of Bethlehem, which is by the gatel" THE SALVATION ARMY ASSAILED CHOICE GOODS JUST RECEIVED. California Prunes in 10 lbs. tins. Ry French Residents of Quebec, Who Object to Their Methods. Quebec, Nov. 28.—The Salvation Army have been threatened by the French inhabitants of this city for some time back with assault, and even murder, if they attempted to parade the streets. They bad arranged to have a parade lost night at 8 o'clock, and about 10,000 people gathered near their barracks to witness or take part in the affair. Capt. Vohl brought a squad of police to the scene and drow them up before the barracks. The police were hooted, hissed and threatened by the crowd. Later the police were order to St. John street, where a battle was in progress. The crowd at the barracks, thinking the police had returned to their station, were on the point of attacking the Salvationists when Capt. Vohl and his policemen returned. No further demonstration was made until 9:30 p. m. when four of the French members of the army appeared on the street They were followed by some of the mob, who hooted, but were prevented from attacking them by the police. The army had beeikwarned by Capt. Vohl not to appear on the street, and complied with his request. The mob became impatient at their non-appcarance and made an attack upon the barracks. A hard fight followed, in which the police used their clubs and pistols to good effect. Mr. Walter J. Ray, a prominent busiuess man, was knocked senseless by some of the mob, and several on both sides were badly hurt. The feeling against tho Salvation Army is very strong among the French population, and more trouble is feared if tho army again attempts to parade. Snow Flake and Monogram Corn. There is a sharp contest for the doorkeopership.

A collision with the police resulted and many persons were clubbed.

Minola, Tex., Nov. 38.—Tho cyclone of Saturday night, which visited this place with such destructive force, was caused by tho meeting of a southeasterly wind and fierce "norther," and was accompanied by lurid lightning and loud thunder, and a deluging rain. The wind was very violent and was accompanied by a loud roaring noiso that was fearfully alarming. It began the work of destruction on the southwestern part of the town, destroying two negro cabins, the dwellers escaping uninjured. Then tho whirlwind, constantly increasing, rushed madly through •he town, destroyed an old dramatic hall in which a negro festival was in progress, crushing five of tho men to death and seriously injuring twelve others, one of whom diet! yesterday. Norther and a Southeaster. Extra Layer Figs. Almeria and Catawba Grapes. About a week ago, however, strange stories began to circulate about him on account of his having borrowed various small sums of money from those in the set in which he moved. These were followed by his identification as Hugh Leslie Courtnay by a lady who saw him in a box at a theatre with a number of Indies The work of unmasking him was then easy, and he was fully identified by Inspector Byrnes, of New York, as a man who has figured in police annals in various parts of the country. Talbot first became aware of this latter fact yesterday morning, when he was met by Cortlandt Parker and asked to explain. Talbot said that there was no truth in the story, and exhibited a letter purporting to be from Lady Radcliffe, who, ho claimed, was his sister. He then induced Mr. Spieden to accompany him to Brooklyn to see certain persons who woultLvouch for his character. But on arriving in New York Talbot decided that he would go to Brooklyn alone, and informed Mr. Spieden to that effect, saying that he would meet the latter at the Astor House. Although Mr. Spieden denyirred at this proposal, Talbot started down the street at a rapid gait and was soon lost sight of. The house will be called to order by Clerk Clark, and after roll call the speaker will be elected. When that officer takes the chair the election of the other officers will follow. The members will then be sworn in by the Bpeaker, who takes the oath from tho clerk upon election. There are a number of contested elections, but they are not upon certificates and the contestees will therefore be sworn in upou the prima facie evidence of their certificates. The contests are Duffey vs. Davidson, of Alabama; Lowry vs. White, Indiana; Worthington vs. Post, Illinois; Frank vs. Glover, Missouri; Sullivan vs. Felton, California; Lynch vs. Vanderver, California; Smalls vs. Elliott, South Carolina , Thoebo vs. Carlisle, Kentucky.

London, Nov. 38.—Although the genorak quietude of yesterday was in marked contrast with the disorder of the last few Sundays, there was still enough of the aggressive element among those who spent their time in the vicinity of Trafalgar square to give the police something to do, and to dissipate tho confidence of a great many persons who believed that no further trouble was possible. Several skirmishes took place during the day, and in each case tho polico cleared the square in a remarkably short space of time. Nobody was allowed to loiter, and bodies of mounted police made the circuit of the square to seo to it that the general order to "keep moving" was obeyed. Honey and Rock Candy Syrup. A wranglo is expected over tho adoption of temporary rules in the house, and this may occupy a day or two, but when determined the speaker will announce the committees on rules, accounts, mileage and enrolled bills. The house will then adjourn to give the speaker opportunity to arrange the various standing committees. Tho first adjournment may be to the middle of the week, and then from day to day unil the committees are announced. The work of making up the committee* will be very taxing, and they may not be announoed undor ten days or two weeks, and possibly not till after the holiday adjournment. The holiday adjournment usually takes place about Dec. 21 or 22. By retirements ther« % number of prominent committee chairmanships made vacant. Principal of these are ways and means, judiciary, military, rivers and harbors, Indian affairs, banking and currency, pnblic lands, commerce, territories and public railroads. These will be filled in the order named, it is believed, by Mills, of Toxas; Culbertson, of Texas; Wheeler, of Alabama; Blanchard, of Louisiana; Peel, of Arkansas; Wilkins, of Ohio; By num. of Indiana; Clardy, of Missouri; Springer, of Illinois, and Crisp, of Georgia. Fourteen of the principal business houses were unroofed, and the torrents of rain pouring in greatly damaged the goods. Four more dwellings in the wind's course were next destroyed, parts of the roofs were rolled up and carried a quarter of a mile or more. The town to-day presents a most dilapidated appearance. Not an awning is left in the town. There are gaping holes in the walls; the debris of the roofs and houses is scattered over the streets, and a cold "norther" is rattling tho fragments of the tin roofs. Macaroni Pastines. Huckins Soups. HURLBUT & CO., It was no sooner said than done. The three brave staff officers bound to their foet and start. Brave soldiers will take even a hint from their commander. But between them and the well lay the host of the Philistines; and what could three men do with a great- army? Yet where there is a will thero is n way, and, with their swords slashing thi.i way and that, they make their path to tho well. While tho Philistines are amazed at tho seeming foolhardiness of these three men. and cannot make up their minds exactly what it inean3, tho threo men have come to tho well. They drop the bucket. They bring up the water. They pour it in tho prxil, and then start for the cave. "Stop thorn!" cry tho Philistines. "Clip them with swordaI Stab them with your spoarsl Stop those threo men!"

Hawes has brought suit against R L Gove for $25,000 for alienation of his wife's affections; Mr. Gove is Mrs. Hawes' father. Hawes and Miss May Gove had always been on most intimate terms, though the lady's parents had not sanctioned this state of nff.iirs. Not long ago the young couple were married without the knowledge of tht lady's parents. TUey had previously made arrangements for their w%dding trip, and Mr. Hawes has now in his possession a portion of his wife's wardrobe, given him in anticipation of that event. Since the marriage, however, Mr. Hawes' wife has not recognized him, has refused to see him, in fact, and all efforts at a reconciliation have failed. Inspector Byrnes, of New York, said lajDt night that he bad recognized the man from a photograph which was shown to him by the Newark gentlemen. He is a notorious swindler, the inspector says, who has passed himself off in this country at various times and in various places as Charles Pelham Clinton, Hugh L. Courtenay and Lord Courtenay. Another Coal Strike Threatened Tho meeting in Hyde park was somewhat smaller in respect of numbers than that of the previous Sinula/, but the numerical fall ing off was compu jsated by an increase in the variety of factions and "isms" represented, even the Vivisectionists taking a hand in tho proceedings. At neither Trafalgar square nor Hyde park was there any demonstration suggesting a disposition to start a riot, and on the whole both the people and the police behaved creditably. Pittsburg, Nov. 28.—The officers of District Assembly No. 5, K. of L., comprising the coal miners of the Monongahela river anil coal rogions, publish a letter in The Pittsburg Times this morning. The letter declares that unless the operators of regions grant the miners a fortnightly pay day, ami mike various other leaser concessions, a strike will occur at one*. Over 5,000 mincrt are involved. Interviews have been had v/ith several leading operators on the subject. They are unanimous In saying that they must abide a strike if it c Dmes. The coal barges in the rivers ire all loaded at present and awaiting a rise to go south. Until the water rises they are unit hie to accomplish much. They think a strike would be a mistake on the part of the miners. Under the circumstances, the operators say, they feel unable to grant the demand.

The Objectionable Telegraph Poles. Fout Waynb, Ind , Nov. 28.—For some months tb# city council have been endeavoring to compel the Western .Union Telegraph company to remove its poles from Calhoun street, the principal business thoroughfare.
