-The Courier Journal contains a verv
good article on early frosts as affecting
tobacco, and gives the following plan
for assisting in warding off injury to the
plants by an - early frost, when the

tobacco field, and in these i scaffolds put
suon material as will burn slowly and
produce a great amount of smoke. Or,
second, the same results may be obtain'
ed by placing on the wept and north
side of the tobacco field log heaps, rot
ten chunks, wet leaves or straw, or such
other materials aawill .cause the logs
to burn reasonably alow and at the same
tune produce the maximum amount ofj
smoxe may oe aauea. in either case
fire should be applied about midnight,
as in the early part of the season frost
rarely oocurs in the fore part of the
iight. 'Now, it is not the heat from
the fire, as some may think, but the smoke
that is to act as the preventative.
It refers to the well known fact thit
in fall 4he temperature of: the air miy
record 40, or 8 above the frost point,
while vegetation itself will record only
80 or 82, and thus, while the air is not
cold enough to induce frost, the; heat pf
the plants is so low as to; bring about
such result. It also illustrates the ad
vantage of keeping a oloud of smoke
hoyei in g over the plants, whenever the
first frost is predicted, by citing the fact
that early froet never occur in i oloudy
nights'. In conclusion it says: f
"List year the first frost of the season
in Kentucky appeared on j the morning
of September 5Wd. It was a light one,
and did little or no damage. But sev
eral cut their tobacco a little green on
account of the scare. It will be remem
bered that the next, or firsti killing
frost, did not come until ; October 7th.
Now it is easy to see that if the tobacco
crop could be protected from the .first
lrotsby means of an artificial cloud of
emoke, ample time may intervene for the
tobacco to mature and be housed safely
in the barns before the next frost comes
- if at my time the indications are
Bumcient to warrant a heavv frost it
would be judicious and perhaps profit
able to employ both precautions as given
above."

CUT.
Richmond, Va., Oct. 6. General
worthy foreman Griffith called the
second session of the Knights of Labor
convention to order at 9 o'clook this
morning, in the absence of Mr. Pow
derly, who was detained at his hotel by
business. It was announced that the
committee on credentials was not ready
to report and nothing could be done
until their report was received. While
waiting several speeches were made by
delegates, to aid in idling the time
away.- Shortly after 10 o'clock Mr.
Powderlv arrived and was presented by
brother O'Donnell with -a , gavel made
from the wood of an orange tree that
grew on the spot where Gen. Packenham
was killed, at the battle of New Orleans.
The presentation was made on behalf of
the New Orleans Knights. It was
learned that the committee on orepen
tiala would not be ready to report until
2 o'clock this afternoon. The conven
tion adjourned until that hour. Be
fore the delegates left the hall. LMr.
Powderly strongly urged them to avoid
the use of strong drink while in Rich
mond. As individuals, he said he had
no right to dictate as to what they
should do, but they were not here as
vnin. -
maiviauais, nut as representatives of a
vast constituency. The eves of the
world were upon them while here and
that constituency would be judged by
their conduct. It is expected that the
afterrfton session will be occupied by
the consideration of the report of the
committee on credentials and that actual
work will not begin until tomorrow.
,1 be convention went into session
again this afternoon at 2 o'clock. The
report of the oomnuttee on credentials
was read. It was very long and secre
tary Turner said it would take four
hours to read it. It was doubtful
whether the consideration of the report
could be completed and action on it
taken this afternoon. The committee of
arrangements of the local Knights, ap
pointed to determine the details of the
entertainment to b given visiting
Knights next Monday, has decided to
let the question of the coming of white
and colored people to the ball that even
ing to settle itself. It has been ar
ranged to have two dancing pavilions at
the State fair grounds. Chairman Lynch
said this afternoon that it was not the
intention to assign one to the white
Knights and other to the colored
Knights. This order recognised no suck
aisuncuons.Dut at tnesame time the feel
ingheninregardtothesocialinteroourse
of the races las so well understood that
they anticipated no trouble on that
rcore. lt was expected, of oourse. that
oolored people would prefer to assooiste
with their own people, if, however,
a colored knight and lady should choose
to' dance with white people in the other
pavilion, he knew of no intention to
prevent them. When asked if oolored
guests ! should present themselves at a
table where whites were seated at the
banquet, what would" be done, he re
plied that he expected no trouble in
that way, but cud not suppose they
would be prohibited from doing so.
He intended speaking to Mr. Pow
derly on the subject in a day or so.
He repeated that he expected no trouble.
The. fund for the entertainment of guests
was raised by the colored and white lo
cal assemblies of Riohmond.The Knights
here have separate assemblies, and the
oolored Knights have contributed more
than the whites to the entertainment
fund. The arrangements for Monday
next inolude a parade of local assem
blies and visiting Knights, Powderly,
the executive committee and invited
guests in carriages. Speeches will be
made by Senator-elect Daniel, Gov. Lee,
Mr. Powderly and others.
Although the second day of the
Knights of Labor convention has passed,
that body is not ready to begin the busi
ness whioh called it together. Nothing
could be done before the organisation as a
convention and before that is done it is
necesssry to know who are entitled to
be members of the convention. The first
step toward accomplishing that result
was taken yesterday, when a committee
on credentials was named. The oom-
mittee reported at three p. m. It
reached a deoision on all save eight or
ten names and these were referred to
the convention itself. The repoit
presented was unanimous. Protests
were made on behalf of the
delegates excluded by the decision
oi mo -committee. Arguments were
made for and against the acceDtanoe of
the report and of the status of the dele
gates. There maybe bad feeling shown
on both sides. In several ' cases it was
very strong. At length the report was
acoepted and it was decided that those
whose names bad been read from the
roll prepared by the oommittee on ore
dentials were entitled to seats. When
this result was reached the others were
requested to leave, and quietly retired
front the ball. The work of assigning
seats tohe remaining delegates began
and; was completed at 7.30 o clock.
when, an adjournment was taken
to 9 a. m. tomorrow. Before adjourning
it was decided that the sessions of the
convention shall be from 9 to 12 and
from 2 to 6 p. m. daily until the final
adjournment. Durug the afternoon ses
sion Mr. Powderly received the follow
ing telegram from the "Brotherhood of
Locomotive Firemen" sending congrat
ulations and best wishes for suoce's
Mr. Powderly also received by wire to
day, from Riohmond, Indiana, the con-
gratalations and thanks of James L
Townsend. oolored. of post 49. G.A R
for tne stand he nad taken In behalf of
. . . . . t . : .
the oolored race. Tomorrow will be
taken up in the discussion of the ques
tion of admission or rejection of eight
or ten deleg&tes whose cases were re
ferred to the convention by the com
mittee on credentials. They come from
several States and consist of members of
delegations from assemblies claiming
larger representations than the strict
rules of the Order allow. They claim that
the present membership entitles them to
the number sent, but the roles require
that the representation shall be based
on membership shown by the secre
tary's book last 'July. When this
question is decided the convention will
be ready to listen to Mr
Powderly's I
address, showing the progress of the
order during the year, and to settle
down to the business awaiting its atten
tion. Powderly 's address will be de
livered tomorrow.

St. Lome, Oct. 6 R. P. Wallace,
the murderer of the Logan family of five
persons, father, mother and three chil
dren, was taken from jtil at Steelville
last night by a mob and lynched. The
guilty man bad been taken to Steel
ville from Cuba, Mo., where the horrible
crime bad been perpetrated, for safe
keeping, for fear that he would be sum
marily dealt with by the enraged citi
sens of Cuba. . Friday morning a mob
gained entrance to the jail, seized Wal
lace, dragged him from his cell and
strung him up. He was out down after
being allowed to hang for a short tune,
in order that a confession might be
forced from him. He refused to own
the crime and before the crowd could
hang him up again the sheriff gained
possession of him and harried him back
to his cell. The mob was prevailed upon
to disperse and it was supposed that the
law would be allowed to take its own
W 1 m t
course, ljast nignt, no we ver, a second
and more successful attempt was made
to meto out justice to the murderer. A
masked mob of about 100 men quietly
gathered around the jail at midnight
and demanded entrance of the jailer.
This was refused and the mob battered
down the doers. A delegation of their
memlers was - sent to bring out the
prisoner, while others were detained to
guard the roads leading' to the scene.

was asked if he had anything to say
He ' replied by strongly protesting his
innocence. This angered the mob more
than ever and with a shout they pro
duced a rope, one end of which they
placed around the murderer's neck. The
other end was thrown oyer a limb of a
tree standing near the jail. The prisoner
still protested bis innocence and ap

Chaklsston, S. C, Oct. .5. There
were no shocks today. A slight tremor
occurred at Summerville at 6 o'clock
this morning. The work of reparation
is going bravely on. Business is aotive.
People are confident and hopeful and
the situation is improving steadily. Ad
vices from Ninety-Six, a. C, over 2UU
miles from Charleston, report a heavy
shock about three miles from that place
during the past week, and it is claimed
that the centre of disturbance has
shifted from Charleston to that place.
Contributions to the relief fund are
still coming in slowly Samuel G
8toney, treasurer of the auxiliary as '
sociation of the Confederate home, has
received a check for twenty dol
lars from President Cleveland,
accompanied by the following letter :
"A circular just received informs me of
the object and purpose of the home for
the mothers, widows and daughters of
Confederate soldiers at Charleston, as
well as its present need, caused by the
recent misfortune. Though constantly
appealed to from all sides and upon
all
manner of occasions for pecuniary aid, I
obeerfully enclose a alight contribution
to the sum necessary to such repairs as
ill enable this useful and benevolent
institution to again open its doors to
the mothers, widows and daughters for
whom it was intended and whose con
dition presents suoh an urgent appeal to
the sympathy of every American citi-
sen "
The city cottnoil at a speoial meeting
tonight authorized the mayor to with
draw the proclamation of September
17th, which stated the wants of Charles
ton for the needy sufferers by the earth
quake, at .hat time, and to express to
all contributors sincere thanks for the
aid extended. The action of the coun
cil is based upon the following care
fully worded and dignified report of
the committee on relief : it has been
and is now a difficult task to measure
the loss by the earthquake calamity, as
it was wholly new and devastating in
the destruction it wrought. This dim
oulty wu i&j felt by this commit
tee, who were named to receive and dis-
tribute aid to the needy sufferers only
by this disaster. To those earthquake
sufferers needing shelter, food and im
mediate pecuniary aid this committee
have offered relief, and in their judg
ment there has been suoh a resumption
of the normal life of thia city as to jus
tify the discontinuance of this system of
diffisult and gravest problem has been
to fix correctly the number of victims
assistance at an early day. 1 he moat
whose loss is their shattered houses and
who are actually unable to repair or re
build them; and to estimate rightly the
total amount of this loss in money, so that
the good givers of this universal charity
might know the limit of our actual need
in this our distress, l he committee
hare, after most careful examination of
cases as far as received arrived at the
opinion that the sum of money already
received by this committee, together
with the estimated amount of collections
now made and in progress of being made
in the territory east of the Alleghanies,
together with the estimated amounts
now in process of collection in Chicago
and other points west of the . Allegha

PORTBD. Chicago, Oct. 5. A special from El
Paso, Texas, says news has been re
ceived whioh confirms what has been
feared for several weeks that hostile
Apaches are still out and that the cap
ture of Geronimo did not end the
Apache war. Lieut. Britton Davis, re
cently of the United States army, now
manager oi a ranche in Chihuahua,
says eight hostile Apaches raided
his ranche during his absence and
d.ove away twenty mules. He
started in pursuit and after follow
ing the thieves for several days, under
the impression that they were "rust
lers," came up with them sixty miles
from this city, in Chihuahua. He was
amsied to find they were Apaehes. A
sharp battle ensued, but none of the
pursuing party was seriously hurt. The
Apaches have evidently been camping
or months only ninety miles from El
Paso. Lt. Davis says that old Mangus
was the leader of the thiewes. Mangus
has been for twenty years a terror of
the border. Ho is regarded as a far
abler tactician than Geronimo and is im
bued with a deeper hatred of the whites.
Mangus and Geronimo are half-brothers,
both being sons of the great Apache
chief Mangus Colorado, said to have
been the worst Indian ever known to
tho earlv white settlers. Lt. Davis
says he pursued Mangus and his band
to within twenty-hve miles of H.I f aso,
where he abandoned the trail, which led
in this direction; not, however, until he
had learned that -Mangus had been
joined by three bucks of Geronimo's
party who escaped from Ft. Bowie.
Davis thinks the hostiles are by this
time in New Mexico and that they in
tend to make a raid through New
Mexico, Aritona and thenoe into Sonora,
Mexico.

Washington, October 5 A cabinet
meeting was held today. An interest
ing question arose in a ease of a United
States district attorney who has been
nominated for Congress, with regard to
the propriety of his continuance in the
office pending the result of the congres
sional election. The general opinion
expressed was that the incumbent had
better resign his Federal office, and he
will be so informed. This action is in
accordance with the recent executive
order in regard to Federal officials par
ticipating in politics.

Reports as to the damage by frost to
the tobacco crop are that at Oxford one
sixth of the tobacoo is standing and that
it was seriously damaged. 8ome fields
were much more seriously bitten than
others. In the section around Durham
considerable damage is reported by Sat
urday night's frost. At Henderson it
is said that one-third the crop is uncut
and is damaged. At Muton the frost
was severe. It is said that about two-
fifths of the crop is uncut. In Bunoombe
the crops were in some eases badly hurt.
Iu Haywood and Yancey counties there
is reported great damage, but by far
the greatest losses are sustained m
Madison, the chief tobacco-raising
oounty. Many crops are totally ruined,
and will not be eut, being entirely
abandoned by the planters. The small
est crop ever raised in that section will
be that of thia season, it is said. Re-
Eirts from the growing tobacco in the
anville section go to show that about
one-third of the crop is still standing,
and this is badly damaged by froct and
cold.

Yesterday the State board of educa
tion met and transacted considerable
routine business. It ordered the con
vict force to be put at work on the old
turnpike road leading from the head of
FnBgo toward Plymouth, the reasons
for this being, the desire of people in
that section to nave tne road put in
order and the faot that it will develop
the 8tate lands lying there. The old
road was constructed years ago by the
literary board. It shortens the distance
to Plymouth.

(Froia the Couvontiou Address )
Nothing; has mado it harder for a
right-minded man, whether a capitalist
or an employer, to deal justly and gen
erously witth the laborer than the shield
which has been thrown about evil
doers who have pretended to serve the
workingman by breaking those laws
whioh are equally his defence and wage
payers'; and, if the large-hearted and
unselfish endeavors of these latter have
halted on their way to some more fra
ternal consideration for those whom
they empley, it has not infrequently
been because the concessions made un
der a half threat have seemed to them
bnt paying, one mere premium upon
lawlessness whioh a weak forbearance
has too widlely encouraged.
