TliOOl'S COiiK TO T!iE ItiiS-ClIE lloi.iliu;s AiitleiiiHtt d. Savannah; da., Dec. 23. Oresonian Telegram. A riot occurred to-day at Jessup, fifty-sevea miles south of Sa- vaonah. Two white men were killed, two others seriously wounded, and sev eral neyroes are reported killed. The Georgia Hussars sent two detachments of. men to Jessup to-night, and more trouble is apprehended. The trouble began at noon, when Mar shal Barnhill arrested a drunken negro aad carried him to the lock-up. Other negroes interfered and a right followed, resulting in tha death of Marshal Lon- gett and Mr. Wood, of South Carolina, and the fatal wounding of Mr. Wood, of Jessup. About fifteen whites and blacks are known to have received injuries more or less serious. Neighboring towns have sent deputa tions of armed men, and the streets are thronged with members of both races. Further hostilities are not looked for to night, but it is thought fighting will surely be resumed iu the morning. The negroes have been chased to the swamps, au.l their capture is certain. The governor Iip.s been telegraphed to for troops, and it is thought there will be a conflict on their arrival. Quite a number of women and children have left the place. This is the place where anegro preach er was taken from a first-class coach on a passenger tram u snort rime ago auu whiuped. The negroes greatly ontnum- r the whites, :'nd coniiicts between them have been frequent, but this is the most serious one in a long time, and the whites expresn a determination in the present iuKlauce to put an end to this lawlessness. At midnight things li.ivo quieted down somewhat, but shouts are occasionally heard. The streets are being patrolled by arme 1 men. A negro w as found dead in an alley late to-night, and two of the wourded are reported dying. The whites express themselves as confident of their ability to subdue the riotous blacks, but tlie coming o troops is anxiously awaited. New Yokk, Dec. 23. A H'oWa special from Macon, Ga., says; A terrible riot is now in progress at iJarnesville, a town forty miles north of here. Telegrams have readied your correspondent saying that three negroes have been killed there since dusk. The cause of the trouble is is not stated. The military of this city are awaiting orders to repair to the scene of the trouble. Augusta, Ga., Dec. 25. When Officers Williams and Crawford went to arrest a party of drunken negro6S to-day they re sisted, disarmed the policemen, and beat them badly with their club3. The po lice were subsequently reinforced and a half a dozen negroes arrested and locked np in the engine house. A large num ber of citizens, white and black, collect ed about the place, and great excitement prevailed during the afternoon. ' Tne ne groes were subsequently removed from the engine house to the jail, where they were safely guarded, and no urtiier trou ble is apprehended. When the officers started to the jail with the prisoners, a difficulty occurred between a negro and several white men. First clubs were used, then pistols. One negro was killed outright aud another badly wounded. All is quiet to-night. OREGONTIIUllSDAY.

A reward of $1000 w as secretly offered for this Ilobin Hood but be heard of it and defied ail attempts on his life, Two men nudertook the mission, deliberately planning the assas- ination of Jack, but neither sot a shot at him, and the heads of both were pub licly flouted on pole3 in front of the bas in store and saloon. Once Jack and a goodly number of his followers came down and ordered a iLja-'hev raqairod the settlers to stafTGreA- arni3,ana' i.autrdgs'pafado wore two sis-shooters in his belt. When the grim merry-making was at its height Jack called for the justice of the peace and married the belle of the basin, a girl of great beauty, and whose family was wealthy, before the ravages of the gang. Jack conciliated the father by promising to restore his property, but the mother aud a brother would not consent to the union, while the girl said nothing. Jack saved his life by setting a watch on her brother, Tor the young fellow was in the act of stabbkig tha outlaw in the back when he was shot down. A big debauch at the robber stronghold celebrated the nuptials of the chief and the death of the designing kinsman of the bride. Jaek and his followers had plenty of food aud supplies and considerable mon ey, and many of his followers were mat. ed with women decoyed from settle ment They louged for some new di version, and the brain of tho leader evolved a brilliant plan of establishing an independent government in the basin with himself as a dictator. He sent couriers to unfold the project to the set tlers and to announce that a public meeting to perfect the organization of the government would be held. The people rebelled here and word passed from ranch to ranch that a descent would Le made on Kettle castle at once. Horsemen fully armed and with ropes gatherei to the number of 150 before Jack (Jould stem the tide of indignation. An old artilleryman improvised a howit zer, and chains and scrap iron were col lected for ammunition. The hastily or ganized army of determined men moved upon the enemy at once. Jack and his gang were iu waiting. They were iu trenched in Block fort, and had planned to mo it down the settlers as they filed into the ravine. The howitzer was planted on an elevation, aud its deadly charges sent right behind the enemy'e breastworks. After a few shots had killed several desperadoes, and there was no sign of ceasing, consternation seized the outlaws and they made a dis ordered retreat. The settlers, led by the father of Jack's wife and the murdered boy, were iu hot pursuit. Several men on either side were shot from their horses, but the ruuuing fight continued without abatement for three entire days. So soon as an outlaw was caught he wTas hanged, as a wof would be shot. No mercy was asked and none was shown A few of the younger fellows were filled with fear when they came to die, but the majority of them simply fought until overpowered and then met their fates with stubborn indifference. Eleven of them were hanged and afterward buried, iu many cased before the bodies were cold. The chase was abandoned the third day. Reports differ as to whether or not the leader was hanged. Jack was a Texan, who fled to Sonth America after killing two men in the Paftandle. Both mur ders were unprovoked. He insulted a woman at a ranch and shot her husband for interfering. In the second instance he and his gang had held high carnival in a dance house. The proprietor finally induced them to leave, but they soon re turned. The keeper then said that the man who entered the place would walk over his dead body. "That's easy enough," said Jack, as he shot the fel low down.

Tiok Go Hung, a Chinese laborer, met Lee Ah Foug, a highbinder, in Eoss alley this afternoon and asked him to pay a small sum of mouey which Fong had owed for a long time. Fong at first became an grv. but finanllv said: "Von wait here a few minutes and I'll pay you." He then disappeared aud Hung waited. A short time afterwards four highbind ers came rushing up to where the unsus pecting creditor stood aud began to strike at him with knives. Hung was unarmed, and in endeavor iug to ward off the blows which rained down npon him, he was frightfully slash ed about the arms and body. As a crowd began to accumulate the murderers ran away, not, however, with out each aiming a final blow at their bleeding victim. He received a final thrust in the right thigh which severed the femoral artery. The wounded man was taken to the city receiving hospital where it was de cided that his right leg will have to be amputated in order to save his life, but it is doubtful if this, will accomplish the result desired.

It says in part : Influenza comes suddenly and goee as quickly. The least robust at any age and women seem to be the first victims. The large number simultaneously attack ed attracts general attention, and thus the most impressionable are seized, the onset being facilitated by any depressing emotion like fear or illness. With the first access of nasal and facial irritation comes dullness, which is followed by fe verishness, with pronounced malaria, and in general headache, weakness and sore ness of the members, especially of the larger joints. With the progress of the case in some individuals there is con siderable general weakness, even marked depression of the vital powers, When a fatal termination is to occur, as a rule an extension downward into the trachea and bronchitis takes place. Relapses are common, and patients fre quently pass by easy transition into chronic bronchitis, asthma, etc. Some times the catarrhal process contributes to chronic disease of the ear, nose and throat, and permanently damaging those parts. New Yobk, Deo. 27. The number of persons in New York and Brooklyn suf fering from influenza is very large, and constantly increasing. While no in stances ot death due directly to influen za has been reported, the number of deaths from pneumonia has increased so remarkably as to indicate some connec tion between the epidemic of so called influenza and pneumonia.

The health boards of all three cities claim there is no danger from the epidemic. New Yokk, Dec. 27.
