Neodesha Register. Anthony, April 19. This morn ing the city of Anthony was- the scene of a most tragic affair. About two months ago a fight occurred in the vil lage of Danville, near this place, be tween three brothers, named Weaver and Odell The latter was fa tallyVft-ounded, and the "Weaver bovs were hurried away to avoid mob vio lence.

Last week they were returned for trial but the cases were continued tor the term, -with bail fixed at 000 each. At 1 o'clock this morning a moD oi iorty or more armed men sur rounded the residence of the sheriff, where the prisoners were held tinder guard. The guard, on hearing them, rushed the prisoners out the back and into the basement of the new school building. The sheriff was taken pris oner by the mob and guarded. The deputies finding it useless to resist, sur rendered.

The Weaver brothers defended themselves with revolvers they had taken from the guards, butwere finally overpowered by the mob and Ropes were placed around their necks and preparations made to hang them up, but the trample of approaching feet frightened the mob and they fired fifteen or twenty shots into the body of each many literally shooting them to pieces.and mounting horses rode rapidly No one knows who they were. The mother of the boys and the wife of one of them witnessed the entire tragedy. Emporia Republican. Knights of Labor. Terance -V.

Powderly, head of the Knights of Labor, is also head of the Executive Committee of the organization. By virtue of holding these offices, for which nature and his attainments abundantly qualify him, he is one of the most powerful men in this Republic. He was born at Carbondale, on January 24, 1819. At an early age he was placed in a shop, where he learned the trade of machinist. In leisure hours he applied himself to self-improvement, and acquired a considerable acquaintance -with mechanical engineering.

Jle was nineteen years of age when he jpined the Machinists' and of Scranton.1 As the preidihgTqfricer of this local body he manifested marked ability, foreshadowing his future supremacy in an organization of national dimensions. Powderly joined the Knights of Labor in 1874, and shortly afterwards was elected the secretary of a district assem bly in the order. He still holds this of fice. The first general assembly of the Knights of Labor was held in 1878. Arrangements leading to it were largely furthered by the intelligent energy of Mr.

Powderly, who from the date of its first general assembly, has probably been the most prominent man in the order. He has been elected its head six times. In 1877 and again in 1878, he was elected mayor of Scranton, which is the place of his residence. The head of the Knights of Labor is an impressive and eloquent speaker, and his success leader of men and promoter of measures is further promoted by his geniality of disposition and ready wit. His capacity for work is astonishing, a result, perhaps, in part attributable to his lifelong abstinence from tobacco and liquor.

It is stated that he receives more letters and replies to a larger correspondence than any man in the United States, and he is one of hn verv few men able to write a letter and dictate another to a typewriter at the same time, Globe-Democrat. J. M. Kogers, of Eureka, was recently in town. Mrs.

"West Shot Gun" has been discharg ing a bloodless volley at Kev. L. Mar tin in the way of provisions and the good things of life. Having lived in this district more than a dozen years, we can say positively there has never been a drop of bloodshed in an that time; and yet we are not so foolish as to go into a "conniption ht over a name that can do us no more harm than the shadow of Hamlet's ghost We know there 's an old saying that you might as well kill a dog as to give him a bad name. But untortunateiv we think it is something besides a bad name that has damaged our district.

We are in receipt of the program for the twenty-first annual meeting of the Kansas State Sunday School Associa tion, to be held at Junction City, May 4 th, 5th and 6th. The topics are prac tical, arid in the hands of those whoso names appear, can hardly fail to make an enthusiastic and useful convention.

Local matters are in the hands of leading citizens of Junc tion City, with llev. II. W. Stearns as chairman, and they will cordially wel come all who come, ihe only credential required is that you want to go; and either tell or learn of better ineth ods of Sunday School work. Jesse Tomlinson met with quite an accident last Tuesday evening while seated on a plow in front of the blacksmith shop.

The plow, it seems, sud denly tipped over with him, and in the act of falling, he kicked the sole of his bare foot against the plow-share, there by inflicting a fearful gash in the hol low ot the toot, probably inches length, the share cutting the foot to the bone. At first he turned to hobble along into the shop, but the pain over coming him, he sank down on the pavement, and clapped his hand on the wound to stay the flow of blood which was profusely issuing from the cut. He was then carried in doors, and the doctor at once sent for, who sewed up the wound, and rendered the proper treatment. At this writing he is doing very well. Both feet were cut by the plow-share, but only one seriously injured.

We are sorry to lose Jesse from the school room. The fact that the Morrison-Hewitt tariff bill has been favorably reported by the committee does not seem to af fect trade in any way, very likely be cause importers, traders and business men realize that even if the bill passes ine nouse, that there is scarcely any probability of its passing the senate. There are certain features of the pro posed revision that would probably be beneficial to the country, but the bill as a whole is objectionable. It these fea tures were picked out and placed to gether as a substitute, the friends of the Morrison-Hewitt bill would be sufficiently powerful to prevent its pas sage. The wool-growers might as well have saved the trouble and time they have put themselves to in appearing before the committee to protest against wool being placed upon the free list as the bill will never become a law.

So general is the conviction that the bill will never become a law, that specula tion in commodities which ordinarily proceeds a revised tariff is utterly wanting. Even the sugar market which ought to be the first to anticipate the effect of the proposed reduction of duty. Is serene and unchanged. The Ohio and Louisiana delegations will vote against it solid, llandall will op pose it as will those who have always Supported him, and Morrison's "diago nal" tariff bill will be laid beside its de ceased brother, the horizontal bill which was killed at the last session.
