Safo crackers got in thoir work at Dally, a little town in Orangeburg county, S. C, at 3 o'clock a. m., of the 18th by blowing open tho safe of Dicks & Sally. They got 7,000 beside valuable papers. A reward of $500 is offered. A special from Lake Province, La., says that at Arcadia, Miss., two negroes on last Sunday mur dered a white man, his wife and baby and set fire to tho trading boat they were in, after robbing it. They were caught and con fessed the crime and, it is be lieved, wore exoouted by a mob. A New Orloan dispatch of the 18th says Chas. B Barnes, a train robber who wi wounded in the back and wristlby, policeman aud who h'ad falvcn refuge, in a swamp noar -tyV city drew a sharp knife across his throat vnd ended his career. In his pockets were found a stolen watch, many registered letters and a quantity of dynamite. lie had a number of crimes to his charge.

S M Bobbin woro on his finger has disappeared completely. It was seen by a numbor of parties the night before he died, and al m on Friday morning just as ho was dying. It was missed as the body was being prepared for burial and an immediate search made, but tho ring is still miss ing. Friday afternoon a num ber of gentlemen made close search of the room, but the ring is not there. It was lost or taken from the dead man's finger be tween 7 and 8 o'clock Friday morning, according to the best testimony possible. That it was on his linger when ho diod, and that it was not there a short while after are the facts in the case. It is quite probable that Capt. Bobbitt's administrator niay take some active slops to investigate the mysterious mat ter. If the ring was lost it ought to be known, and if it was stolen there should be punish ment meted out.

True Plotnre of NlneterntVi Centary DevelopDient Arranged In a ftrttlna of Unsarpaiifl-fl Bmuy and Splen dor at Pan-Amerlann Exiroaltlon. If one may Judfre by the p-i-Rence of thousands of workmen tu the Ki'ouuds of tho Pan-American Exposition and the wonderful prorrress they luive made during the last few months, the Kxposltlon will be opened In a condi tion of completeness upon the 1st of May next For the benefit of those who, for any reason, have not been Informed con cerning the plans nud purposes of this vast enterprise I will Btate that the Exposition grounds are In the northern part of the elty of Hufralo and have an area of 350 acres. Buffalo, with Its 400,000 population, Is preparing the most artistic creation ever produced for the purposes of an exposition. The completed work will cost probably 10, 000,000. exclusive of exhibits. The landscape upon which the build ings stand Includes a part of one of the most beautiful pnrks In Buffalo or. In H.U.L OF Ml.SIC. fact. In the world. The Exposition will t.ius have the setting of trees. lawus and waler features, uhich luivi cost the city of l!.;a'nlo millions of do! lars. The uiiilu Exposition tuiliciiUK are some 20 or more In number ut. l lire urr&nged about a system of beautiful courts some 3:1 acres In extent. The arrangement Is such as to permit the most exquisite decorative effects that the best trained artists of the world may be aide to produce. SSpaee will pi-ruut only an enumera tion of the principal buildings. These arc: The Electric Tower, 375 feet high, w hich Is to be the centerpiece of the most brilliant and novel electric II lumlniitlon ever coticelved; the I'ropy- lie, or architectural screen, at tho northern end of the grounds; the Hta dlutu, for sporting and athletic events; the Agriculture building, Nfanufncfuref and Liberal Arts building, Ethnology bullithipr, the Government group of three great buildings, the Midway res taurant building, Electricity building, the Machinery and Transportation build ings and Railroad Station, the Teuiplf of Music, Graphic Arts, Horticulture.

The Midway at the Pun-American Exposition alone will cost more than some large expositions. It Is estimat ed the cost of the Midway will be about $3,000,000, as It will have more than a mile of frontage closely built with the most picturesque structures conceiva ble and will contain between 30 and 40 entertainment features of most novel and Interesting character. The purposes of the Exposition are not merely to give the people a most magnificent and attractive entertain ment, but It will furnish tho opportu nity for every one to Inform himself upon the progress of the nlni teetitli century. The Exposition Is held for the purpose of celebrating the achieve ments of the western world during a century of unparalleled progress. It Is distinctly a western world affair, nil the governments of the western hi ml sphere having been Invited to partici pate In nil departments. Olliclnl re sponses have been made by every im portant gi'veniiiient, p'jite and depend ency of the western world, and they are preparing to be reprencnti'd by most creditable exhibits. The exhibits are classifier! In the fol lowing divisions: Electricity and elec trical appliances; fine arts, painting, sculpture and decoration; graphic arts, typography, lithography, stool and cop per plate printing, photo mechanical processes, drawing, engraving and bookbinding; liberal arts, education, engineering, public works, construc tive architecture, music and drama, sanitation and hygiene; ethnology, arelueo'.ogy, progress of labor and Invention, Isolated and collective ex hibits; agriculture, agricultural Imple ments: machinery and appliances, foods and their accessories, horticul ture, viticulture, agriculture, forestry and forest products, tlsh, fisheries, Hpb products and apparatus for fish h p; mines and metallurgy, machinery, manufactures. transportation, rail vnys. vessels, vehicles, ordnance, ex hibits from the Halwallan Islands.

The needs of the Inner man will be well attended to at the Pan-American Exposition to be held at Buffalo from May 1 to Nov. 1, l'JOl. At some exposi tions a great mistake has been made by not providing for grod restaurants, where satisfactory meals could be ob tained at reasonable prices. Either the food obtained has not been of good quality or prices charged have been ex orbitant or the facilities In some par ticulars have boon Inadequate to the occasion. There will lie good restaurants In dif ferent parts of tho grounds of the Pun Ann rloan Exposition, so that it will not be necessary for visitors to go out side of the ground. to secure a good meal, well served, at a moderate price. All tastes w ill he suited In the services rendered, for there will be places where meuls will be served on un elaborate plan to suit the most fas tidious taste and where prices will be In proportion to those charged at high class rertaurants In large cities. There will be of!., r pluees where the i.ier.ls will be e'n ap, but the food nppe th'.Ing and healthful and tho surround ings clean. There will be restaurants 111 the beautiful buodlug at ihe en trunoo to the Mid v. ay, ai. other in a i-.fi , ill.. r build, ig at tl.e enir .nee to the Stadium, another In the I.leetric '.lov er, which will Is one of the great cen ters of Interest on the 'Exposition grounds, and another on the Midway, liofn'shinents will also be served In the Temple t .Music, which may be en Joyed by visitors at too same time that they are listening to the concerts In progress In the auditorium. There will also be a Now England kitchen, a Gor man restaurant, a Mexican restaurant, nn Italian restaurant and other places where various kinds of refreshments will be served. EAGLES AT THE EXPOSITION. Remarknltle Drpttrutlon For Ktlmfil OKy DDllillnnr at Buffalo. The building devoted to the Depart ments of Ethnology and Archicology at the Pan-American Exposition, which Is now approaching completion, will have some remarkable sculptural dec orations. Among them will be gigantic figures of eagles aud lions, which will be placed upon eight of the 10 paotls SKUVICB HUILOtNQ. of the domes. These sculptures in staff will be conspicuous features of the architecture of this beautiful build ing. Models In clay are first mnde of the figures, nnd from them reproduc tions In staff are east. The model of the eagle has Just been completed. It Is of colossal size. In the miHlel nearly 10,000 pounds of clny have been used, aud euch bird, when enst In staff, will weigh fully o tons. The sculptured eagle will measure nearly 10 feet In height Bmmarm on Pan-American. A movement to Interest the public school teachers and public school pupils In the rnn-Ainerlean Exposition to be held ut HiUlalo next summer has been started. It originated in some of the public schools of rciinsylvanln and is bell ;; taken up elsewhere as the wis dom of the plan becomes apparent Thii ld"ii is to have the teachers 111 the pub lic schools write essays for various oc casions of an educational charecier c.n the objects. and alms of the Exposition and the bearing that such a display will have onvthe commerce of the world. A similar plan regarding the Paris Exposition was found quite suc cessful and resulted In the attendance of a large corps of teachers nt that fair. The plan contemplates also essays by pupils. It Is believed that In this way much Information ran be spread re garding the benefits to be derived from cultivating closer relations with the dllT'TCit countries of this hemisphere and that It w -uld result la (..renter In telligence among thu public school teachers and pupils on this subject as well as a larger attendance among this class of the population at tho Exposi tion.

We in sert the following beautiful and doubtless well merited tribute from the Charlotte Observer: "The death of Dr. Chas. J O'Hagan, of Pitt, was an event in tho history of North Caro lina. It is to be doubted if there was in the State a greater physician. The people within the range of Irishman, knew he knew how to cure disease. His personality was most attractive. A native Irishman, as his name suggests, ho brought into his adopted country and carried to his grave tho richest accent that; ever was heard, aud it adorned i the quaintest humor. IJo was :i great doctor and a great man. j Tho State is impoverished by his death." Smith's Ford Items. Written For Ths Standard. Smith Ford, Dec. 17. The school at Pine Bluff is progress ing finely. Miss Mary Sego is tho teacher. Mr. D S Jenkins' son has been very sick but is better. Tho Smith's Ford mail camo in late Friday evening. The mail carrier has a now way of carrying the mail. IIo walks behind his horso and cart aud totes the mail sack on his shoul der. He seems to think it too hard for the horso to pull him all the way so ho divides timo with him. Tho horso and cart passed a house near Smith's Ford and tho man went out and caught the horse, thinking it was a run away horso, but in a few min utes he saw the man coming with the mail. He got into the cart and drove to the offico and the postmaster being a good ami clever man went out and lifted up the ridor and took out the mail sack, so you can guoss at the balance. Mrs. Ephraim Barboo hap pened with the misfortune to slip and fall a fow weeks ago and dislocated her arm from which she has suffered much pain. A Large Increas in Valuation. Col. JohnW Hinsdalo, counsel for the Corporation Commission in tho railroad tax assessment caso, states that in his opinion the result of the case will be a very large increase in the valuation of all property. If this result really dues come, it will nave been a mighty good thing that the case was started. It is far better for property owners to give iu their property at true value and have a low tax rate, than it is to have a high tax rate aud have proper ty values minimized. Wilming ton Dispatch. reculiar Twins. A special from St. Louis says that Jacob and Benjamin Evans are twins and so nearly alike that thoir mother can scarcely tell them apart.
