( Brutal Maltreatment.
SaliA, Kan., Aug. 7. O. F. Coswell,
a farmer living seven miles northwest of
here, was decoyed from his home last
night by a stranger, who said he had a
sick horse and wanted assistance.
When half a mile from home the pair
were met by two pals of the stranger,
who covered Coswell with rifles. He
tried to escape, when one of the men
fired, the bullet striking him in the
head, and the other man struck him
over the head with his rifle, partly stun
ning him. The three then bound Cos
well's hands, sagged him, and forced
him to walk a mile and a half, though
he was nearly fainting from the loss of
blood. After terrorizing the farmer for
some time, tbey finally let him go, first
threatening him with death if he told of
tho occurrence. Coswell'e condition is
critical. There is no clue to his assail
ants. No cause for the outrage is
kaown.
A Provisional Government.
New York, Aug. 7. A special to the
Herald from Nassau says :
Reports from the rebel headquarters
in Baire, Cuba, confirms the rumored
foundation of a provisional government
in the valley of Yara. General Bartol-
leme Basso, nominated by the general-in-chief,
Maximo Gomez, was proclaimed
as president bv the revolutionary forces,
simultaneously in the central provinces
and the department. Dr. Joaquin Cas
tillo, Major Portunda, Colonel Manduley,
Captain Agullera, Dr. Padron and Mar
iano Sanchez, delegates from the prov
ince of Santiago, have gone to Puerto
Principe to meet representatives from
Camagaya, Havana and Nuela Aba jo, to
diatt a constitution for the new republic.
This will include military and civil con
ditions. The cabinet is not yet announced,
thotigh Antonio Maceo, it is said, has
an offer of the portfolio of war.
It is understood that Castillo may be
sent to Washington to attempt to secure
recognition for the provisional govern
ment. Died of Alcoholism.
San Feancisco, Aug. 7. A special
from Santa Monica says that James Gor
don, a grandson of the famous English
general, "Chinese" Gordon, died there
laec night of alcoholism. Gordon was
born iu London in 1844, and was the son
of Captain Gordon, of the British navy,
who was the son of the famous general
who, in 1877, was killed by the Mahdi at
Khartoum, Africa. Young Gordon, who
up to about 12 years ago was a clerk in
the Bank of England, separated from
his wife, owing, it is said, to his drink
ing, and came to this country with about
$30,000, engaging in the paving business
with a wealthy Englishman in Sioux
Falls. S. D. They failed and Gordon
was penniless. He went to Santa Mon
ica nine years ago, ' and of late has
gained a livelihood by acting as a porter
in a saloon.
Clothing Thief Captured.
Chicago. Aug. 7. In attempting to
steal a coat from a dummy in front of
Simon Fisher's clothing store last night
John A. Hart, alias William Hughes,
colored, shot and severely wounded the
proprietor of the store, and probably fa
tally wounded Policeman Alexander A.
Cameron, who tried to arrest him.
Hart ran, and Policeman Cameron fired
three shots after him, striking him in
both legs. Hart, after running half a
block, was caught by other policemen,
attracted by the shooting. The shoot'
ing occurred in the business district and
there was great excitement for sou
time.
Ives I.ast Move.
New York, Aug. 7. President Ives, of
of the Nothern Pacific Railway Company,
states that the general counsel has left
for the West to make application to var
Xioub courts on the line of the road for the
emoval of the present receivers, Messrs.
lOakes, Payne and Rouse, on the ground
that the court at Milwaukee, which ap
pointed them, has no jurisdiction, no
part of the road being in that district.
The acts of the receivers will be urged
as a further cause for removal.
. Work of Masked Men.
Douglas, Wyo., Aug. 7. The foreman
of a herd of sheep owned by the Platte
Valley Sheep Company reports that si
masked men rode, into camp Sunday
night, held up the herder, saturated the
wagon with coal cil and burned it.
Thej' shot a half dozen sheep and rode
off, after telling the herder they would
wipe out the entire flock if he did not
get out of the park at once. The com
pany sent out arms and ammunition to
day and say they will stand their
ground. Bloodshed is likely to follow,
as the ranchers claim the range is in
dispute.
BLOO.HERS DID IT.
A Sappy Family Broken Up by Them.
San Francisco, Aug 7. Bloomers
have caused the separation of Henry
Bach and his wife. If it were not for
these insidious garments their home
would still be happy. As it is, there is
little hope that they will ever live to
gether again. Bach is a wholesale liquor
merchant. Suspecting tbat his wife was
riding a wheel against his wishes, he
strolled out to a cyclery near the park a
few days ago to see if his suspicions
were correct. He was greatly shocked
to see his wife not only riding a wheel,
but arrayed in bloomers of the latest
pattern. A scene ensued, in which Mrs.
Bach's bloomers are said to have re
ceived rough treatment, and since then
the couple have not lived together.
Another Stage Bobbery
Rosebubg, Aug. .7. Camas mountain
was chosen by a robber yesterday as a
suitable place to hold up the Coos bay
stage. The lone highwayman, who wore
a white mask and held a pistol in each
hand, ordered the express box thrown
out. He was told there was none, and
contented himself with the mail bags.
As there were only two or three regis
tered packages in the pouch he reaped a
small reward for his trouble.
There is more Catarrh iu this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable:
For a great many years doctors pro
nounced it a local disease, and .prescrib
ed local remedies, and by constantly
failing to care with local treatment, pro
nounced it incurable. ' Science has
proven catarrh to be a constitutional
disease and therefore requires constitu
tional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,
Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional
cure on the market. It is taken inter
nally in doses from 10 drops to a tea-
spoonful. It acts directly on the blood
mucous surfaces of .the system. They
offer one hundred dollars for any casd it
fails to.cure. Send for circulars and tes
timonials. Address.

Chicago, Aug. 7. 'A special to the
Post from Spring Valley, III., says that
after cross-examining nearly every ne
gro and Italian, the actual result simmers
down to two negroes slightly injured and
one Italian shot. The race war exists
only in the imagination of the Princeton
newspaper correspondent, from whom
the sheriff tf Bureau county also obtained
his information, and unless some un
foreseen accident happens to create bad
blood there Is no reason why Spring
Valley should obtrude longer ou public

Running- Fight with Outlaws.
Kansas Citt, Aug. 7. A special to
the Star from Perry, Oklahoma, says :
Deputy Marshals William Mix and
Dick Reid bad a running fight with two
ontlawa today east of here. The outlaws
gave the officers a six-mile chase before
they were caught. They turned out to
be Ben Craven and William Crittenden,
half-breed Cherokee Indians. They had

possession.
One night when Mr. Isaac Reese was
stopping with me, says M. F. Hatch, a
prominent merchant of Quartermaster,
Washington, I heard him groaning. On
going to his room I found him suffering
from cramp colic. He was in such ag
ony I feared he would die. I hastily
gave him a dose of Chamberlain's Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. He was
soon relieved and the first words he
uttered were, "what was that stuff you
gave me?" I informed him. A few
days ago we were talking about the
attack and he said he was never without
that remedy now. I have used it in my
family for eeveral years. I know its
worth and do not hesitate to recommend
it to my friends and customers. For
