Albert Hawkins Made an Assault on a Little School Girl—Cap- tured and Held. _ Albert Hawkins, a sixteen-year-old negro boy, attempted an outrageous assault upon Sadie Sherler, the twelve-year-old daughter of @ prosperous German farmer living on the Falls Church road, four miles from this city, yesterday afternoon, and for several hours Alexandria county in the vicinity of the crime was wild with excitement, and a collision of a serious character between the races at one time seemed imminent. Hawkins, who is a Washington boy,went to live at LincoInville with his brother-in- law, Daniel Masterson, two months ago. Near this village, which is about three miles trom Washington, is the Cane school, taught by Prof. Henry Stolcup, which the little girl attended. She was returning home from her studies about 4:30 o'clock, and was passing along a cow path through a thick wccds, when Hawkins, who had seen her pass that way in the morning, and who had then evidently conceived his pur- pose, sprang out from where he had been awaiting her and seized her. The child screamed in fright, and the brute tried to hold her mouth, and also to choke her. He was fast overpoweritig her, when two chil- cren named Russell, playmates and neigh- bors of the Sherier children, came running down the path, attracted by Sadie’s screams. Hawkins ran away at their ap- proach, without accomplishing his purpose, and went to Daniel Masterson's house in Lincolnville, where he was captured by Mr. George Connelly, a nephew of Mr. Sherier, two hours after the assault. Con- nelly marched Hawkins to the Sherier farm, several men joining him on the way, and when Sadie identified the prisoner as her assailant the latter broke away and ran, but was stopped by the father of the child, who pointed a gun at him and com- .manded him to halt. ‘The news of the affair had spread rapidly, and a large crowd soon assembled at the Sherler farm, and there were many threats of lynching Hawkins. Mr. Sherier, how- ever, insisted that the law should take its course, and Hawkins was taken to Magis- trate Payne's house, at Ballston. As night advarced the condition of affairs began to grow ymore serious. Those in favor of lynchit; the prisoner grew more numerous and vehement, and this stirred up the negroes of Lincolnville, who, to the number of 25 or 30, armed themselves and proceed- ed to Ballston, with the declared purpose of preventing injury to Hawkins. A conflict | Between the white farmers and the negroes seemed inevitable, when Constable Lemuel Massey, by cTever subterfuge, attracted the attention of the mob to the front of the magistrate’s house, and then slipped Haw- kins out the back way and carried him off through the woods. When the lynching party found the prisoner had been spirited away two crowds were formed, and the roads leading from the place followed, but to no purpose. While Hawkins was at Magistrate Payne’s house the latter order- ed him to be held for the grand jury on two charges—assault and assault with erim- | mal intent. It was only due to the clever- ness of Constable Massey that a lynching and a subsequent fight between the whites and the blacks did not occur.

CLARKE READY FOR FITZSIMONS Rumored That the Contest Will Be |, in Private. AMONG THE ATHLETES — CHICAGO, October 29.—The Corbett-Fitz- simmons fight has already been stopped and will never take place—certainly not in Arkansas. That seems to be the substance of a dispatch addressed to the Associated Press and sent out today, signed by the governor of Arkansas. The telegram was received at the office of the Associated Press in Chicago at noon. It reads as fol- loves: “LITTLE ROCK, Ark., October 29.—I in- tend to stop the fight at all hazards, re- gardless of place and time when attempt- ed. In fact, it is"stopped now. “(Sign JAMES P. CLARKE.” FITZSIMMONS’ “TURN Now. A Warrant for His Arrest Issued at Lite Rock. Matters pugilistic took a sensational turn at Little Rock, Ark., yesterday, when At- torney General Kinsworthy filed informa- tion asking for a warrant for the arrest of Robert Fitzsimmons and Martin Julian. It develops that arrangements have been proceeding quietly at the Hot Springs for a fight to the finish between Corbett and Fitzsimmens, to take place despite the su- preme court's decision. Governor Clark has not been idle, but has himself been doing a little preparing “on the quiet.” It develops that the governor has had a detective or cenfidential agent at Hot Springs all the time, and has been thoroughly posted on every movement made by the promoters of the fight. Sunday night this detective advised the governor that arrangements had been com- pleted to bring the fight off, and as a re- sult of this information Attorney General Kinsworthy, acting under instructions from Governor Clark, at 9 o'clock yesterday morning applied to Judge James W. Martin for the warrants for Fitzsimmons and Ju- lan, which were issued aud placed in the hands of Sheriff Booker. To Fight in Private Thursday. Private telegrams were rece'ved in Chi- cago last evening from both brady and Julian saying that the fight would posi- tively come off Thursday. Brady says it will be in private for a side bet of $5,400 or $10,000, and that Fitzsimmons will put up his money as soon as he reaches Hot Springs. Julian says “the fight will posi- tively come off in private in Hot Springs on Thursday.” Attorney General Kinsworthy of Arkan- sas returned to Little Rock f Springs last night. When asked by a friend what he thought of the situation at Hot Springs, he replied that he believed there was going to be a fight. Asked if Governor Clark2 would stop it, the attorney general sak he did not see how he could. While at Hot Springs Attorney General Kinsworthy had a conference with Prose- cuting Attorney Teague, and instructed him to release Corbett from the bond under which he was placed. It was announced in Dallas yvesverday that nearly all the members of the Dallas artillery company are to be court-martialed or dismissed in disgrace from the military service in Texas for refusing to turn out as escort to the governor at the opening of the state fair. The trouble is a sequel to Governor Culberson’s course in preventing the Corbett-Fitzsimmons fight taking place in Dallas. Dixon and Griffo Draw. The arena of the new Manhattan Athletic Club, in New York, was filled last night with the wearers of the Cherry Diamond and their guests, who gathered to see George Dixon and young Griffo in a ten- round “go" at catch weights. Dixon and Griffo entered the ring at 10:25 o'clock, and the “feather” looked well, but was twenty pounds heavier than Dixon. Announcer Burns said after the tenth rcund that th® mer had an agreement that if they were well and strong on their feet at the end of ten rounds the bout would be declared a draw. Tom O'Rourke jumped into tne ring and said the Griffo party would not agree to a decision. Griffo then sai f it is to be a decision I will fight five more rounds.”” The men went back to their corners and the bout was declared a draw. The men then left the ring after a good deal of grumbling on both sides. KILPATRICK BARRED. Can Never Again Contest in the Inter- collegiate Championships. The executive committee of the Intercol- legiate Athletic Association held a star chamber meeting at New York on Satur- day. The meeting was he?d to take action on charges against Union College, which were preferred by Harvard at the last meeting in May. At that time it was charged that Union had, in 1894, run Kilpatrick, the champion half-mile runner, before he had been in col- lege a yeur, which is a violation of the as- sociation’s constitution, and that the man- agers of last year’s track team did not file the papers—certificates of good standing— of the men who competed in last spring’s meet. Union had a representative at the meet- ing to answer the charges, but a resolu- tion that Kilpatrick be forever barred from running at the intercollegiate meets, and that Union be suspended from the associa- tion till the annual meet, in February, was adopted. Members of the executive com- mittee assured Union's representative that the college would be reinstated at the an- nual meeting, but that none of the athletes who competed last spring would be allowed to do so again. Baldwin’s Case Under Consideration. The stewards of tre Jockey Club held a meeting in New York yesterday afternoon to take action on the siatus of “Lucky” Baldwin's stable. The following resolution was adopted: “Whereas the action of the stewards of the Westchester Racing Association in re- fusing the entries of the Santa Anita sta- ble, under rule 42 of the rules of racing, at the course of that association, being final, ard a further hearing having been granted by the stewards of the Jockey Club to Mr. Baldwin, who attended with counsel and witnesses, it is therefore “Resolved, That further investigation shall be pursued by the stewards of the Jockey Club, final decision being reserved.”” Von der Ahe’s Acquisition.

Dr. Edwin Buchanan, 2 former resident of this city, but who has been practicing medicine in Seattle, Washington state, for scme years past, died’ very suddenly there Sunday. The notice of his death was re- ceived by his-relatives here by telegrapa yesterday evening, but none of the par- ticulars are known. Dr. Buchanan was the son of the late R. E.*Buchansn, and a brether. of Mrs. Annie Kemp of this city. He was a native of this city, and resided here until a few years ago, when he moved to Washington and thence to the west. He was marricd about three years ago to a Miss Carter of Delaware, a niece of Mr. Bayard, United States minister to England. His body will be brought to this city for burial. Literary Class. The regular meeting of the Teachers’ Lit- erary Class was held last night at 7 o’clock at Peaoody building. The subjects treated were grammar, dictation, analysis, punc- tvation and school economy. The subjects were all most ably treated, and were great- ly enjoyed by the teachers present. The following questions were also submitted and ably argued: What is the object of the study of grammar? Give a plan of teach- ing the noun. Should grammar at first be taught orally or from a text book? What should be the primary object of teaching arithmetic? Funeral of Mr. Pierpoint. The funeral of Mr. Edward Pierpoint, who died very suddenly Friday afternoon, as mentioned in The Star, took place from his heme on Cameron street yesterday. The Rev.

It will not be very long now before the question as to the legality of bookmaking as conducted in New York ts decided. A test case on which the whole matter will hinge was arranged yesterday between the counsel representing the Westchester Rac- ing Association-on the one hand and the Anti-Gambling League, aided by Pool Room Becper Peter De Lacy, on the other, in the x market police court. vonlande Jones agreed to act as scapegoat for his fellows, but it was decided to try Joseph Sturgis, who was arrested for act- ing in the alleged capacity of Jones’ sheet writer. Detective Joseph G. Guerin, who arrest- ed Sturgis, was the first witness called. He testified to having seen Orlando Jones and Sturgis together under the grand stand at Morris Park on the afternoon of Oc- tober 24. He saw two men speak to Jones, and then, he said, Sturgis made an entry of 40 to 50 on Henry of Navarre in a book which he carried. Mr, Steinkardt of the prosecution then called on Jones to take the witness chair. Mr. Nicoll, for the bookmakers, objected and told Jones to answer none of the ques- tions put to him. Mr. Steinhardt at once read Mr. Nicoll a little law and the latter theught it better © dtaw in his horns and allow Jones to cae ‘amination. Mr. Steinhardt’§’ questions all centered round the book used: y Sturgis in the reg- istering of bets.

He claimed that pe was not a layer of odds, inasmuch ag he-occupied no stand or booth, gave no.receipts for any wagers he might make ang received no money at the track. ‘Asked by Mr. Steinhardt for his definition of bookmaking, he said it was the giving of a receipt in exchange for money wager- ed on a horse, the transaction taking place at a regular stand or booth. The last witness of the day was Rob- ert Pinkerton. His testimony was unim- portant, and, moreover, was cut short by continued objections from Mr. Nicoll, who insisted that Mr. Steinhardt’s examina- tion was irrelevant and material. aes Editors at the Exposition.

Ferry Boat Chicago Collides With the Steamship Alvina. In clear, calm weather, with nothing to obstruct the vision, a collision cecurred on the Hudson river at New York yesterday, which in one respect was the worst’ that has happened thereabout for a long time. The Pennsylvania railroad ferry boat Chi- cago had barely cleared her slip at the foot of Cortlandt street for Jersey City wnen she was run into by the steamship Alvina of the Atlas line. At that hour the ferry travel from New York across the river is small, and to that fact is probably due the escape from death and injury of a greater or less number of human beinzs. Of course there was a panic among the passengers, but no one was hurt, except a truck driver, whose hand was bruised by being thrown off his seat, and it was wonderful that the Chi- cago was not sunk. As it is, she is partly wrecked, the damage suffered by her being greater than that resulting from any col- lision for several years. The steamer Alvina was one down the river in tow of a tug. She ran close to the New York side, and just as the Chi- cago moved out of her slip the bow of the steamer crashed into the forward end of the ferry boat. The impact was at an angle of about 35 degrees, and the steel prow of the steam- er plowed up the heavy timbers of the Chicigo and splintered them like matches. Her forward rudder was carried away and her flooring was piled up as high as the upper deck, some of which was also crush- ed and carried away. The entire front of the fer! boat looked as if it had been wrecked by dynamite. Passengers were thrown from their seats, and the horses attached to wagons on board becaine almost unmanageable. For- tunately there were only two teams on the boat, and both were ahgut the center, £0 that another danger usual in ferry col- lisions was absent. The Chicago came to a full stop, and a hasty examination was made to see whether she was leaking. The steamship also slowed down, and within two minutes half a dozen tugs were circling about the scene. Some of the Chicago’s planking and pieces of huge beams were floating in the river nearby, and to those on shore it seemed that the ferry boat must certainly have had her hull torn up. This undoubt- edly would have been the case if the steamer had been traveling a little faster instead of proceeding leisurely in tow. CHANDLER PREDICTS WAR. The New Hampshire Senator Says That Hostilities With England Are Certain. An editorial appeared yesterday in the Concord Evening Mirror, Senator Chan- dler’s paper, written by the Senator, and headed, “Our Coming War With England.” It says, in part: “War between the United States and England is inevitable. It wiil arise on ac- count of British disregard for our direct interests. It wili also be forced by British encroachments tpon other nations all over the world. It will be fought by us, having Russia as our European ally. As a war of- fensive on our part it may not happen within twenty years. As a defensive war it may come sooner, and should be wel- comed. One sure result will be the capture and permanent acquisition of Canada by the United States.” EVERYTHING SEEMS WRONG To the dyspeptic. The world is np- side down; the times are out of joint; he’s ready to turn his back upon his best friend. Now, the thing that oftenest is wrong with dyspeptics, is their choice of a remedy. It seenis to lie between drugs and medicines on the one hand and the Carlsbad Sprudel Salt on the other. They can’t both be right; there’s too much ditterence in their methods and in their results. Carlsbad—the Sprudel Spring at Carlsbad has been curing dyspeptics for hundreds of years. Its natural solvent and stimulating properties correct perverted nutrition, repair waste, and bring back a healthy di- gestion and appetite. The only genuine imported Spru- del Salt (the water solidified at_the spring) has the signature of “EIS- NER & MENDELSON CO., Agts., New York,” on every bottle. The Doctor’s Column. A.B.
