Hereafter the banks of the city wiil close on Saturday at 12 o'clock. Every one who intends getting money from thP hanks on Saturdays will do well to bear this fact in mind. The rea son tor this change in the hour lies in the fact that Saturday is a legal holiday, and drafts cannot be legally protested on that day. The banks in large cities close at 12 o'clock on Sat- nrriavR and Greensboro, now a large city, will do likewise. This change in the hour does not affect the People's Bank, which will , keep its customary MOB ATTACK BY STRIKERS. RAILROAD EMPLOYEES DRIVEN OFF AFTER BEING SHOT AT. Men of the Southern System Stormed in a Car at Columbia, S. C Tied Non-Union up and Drove Them Out of Town Four of the Mob Wounded. Columbia, S. C, June 24 The first blood shed in a strike riot in South Carolina was spilled this morning at 4 o'clock in the Southern Railway shops in this city. These are large shops and the striking machinist have made strong efforts to keep them idle. It became known yesterday that there were forty men at work in the shops. Many brought from other places had been induced to desert the company. Several days agoSupt. Wrelles applied to the Mayor for policemen to protect the company's property. This was re fused, as the Mayor declared there was no danger. One policeman is on that beat. Just before daylight this morning about one hundred men with faces blackened or wearing black masks, attacked the north fence of tne yards which comprize twenty acres, quickly made a break and marched in. There were forty-two men in the yards, sleeping in two cars. One of the cars during the night was switched to a re mote corner and escaped detection. The strikers advanced on the other car in which twenty men were asleep. There was one guard, a man numed Meyers, walking by this car. He saw the column advancing and ordered the men to halt, and tell their business. A spokesman said they had come to release men being held against their will. Twice the guard ordered a halt, and when the leaders were within thirty yards he fired both barrels of a shot gun at the mob. At the same moment a pistol ball struck Myers in the fore head, but glanced around the bone. He got behind cover and used hi3 re volver, The strikers attacked the car and called on the men to come out. There wag no response, and they rioters opened fire. The car looks as if it had run the gauntlet of sharpshooters There are 20J bullet holes in it. The occupants escaped by throwing them selves on the floor. Finally all crawl ed out and were tied up by the strikers who marched then north, by the South- ern's tracK ior iwo miies, oeauus . . i . a "i t a.: everyone along the way with sticks and pistol barrels. The non-unionists were all badly cutjup. The one police man begged the strikers to .be merci ful. Two hour3 later an engine with the master mechanic and yardmaster went up the road and between the three and seven-mile post picked up nineteen of the beaten men. Onlv one refused to comeback. A half hour after the attack two phy- sicans received hurry calls. They re ported attending four men wounded in thigh, abdomen and head If they know the names of the wounded men they will not give them On application, Mayor Earle detailed a squad of policemen to guard the shoD. Thev are now on duty. Me JT would not allow them within the yards. It is believed at least a half dozen strikers were wounded by Guard My ers. TO CIRCULATE A PETITION.

A Posse of Officers Who Were Endeavor ing to Serve Judge Jackson's Injunction on the Striking: Miners in West Virginia Made to Seek Safety in Flight. Huntington, W. Va., June 24. To day a possee of United States depu ty marshals, led by A. C. Hufford, o? Bluefield, were fired on by the strikers snd forced to fipp from the coal fields at Mattewan. Yesterday afternoon the marshals, set out from Bluefield to reach the scene of the miners' riots. ".Vithin 20 miles of Thacker they found that they could proceed no further by rail on account of the flood. They struck out across the mountains en countering almost insurmountable dit ficlties and late Sunday afternoon reached the ena of their journey. Pro ceeding to work, they began serving notices of the injunction which had been issued by Judge Jackson. A mob of strikers followed armed to the teeth with firearms. On all siacs could be heard the cry, "down with government by injunction!' Men threatened them with their weapons, women called down the vengeance of heaven upon them and children hurled stones. When nightfall came notice had been served on the strikers of all the coal companies, but one and that was to be served at Lick Fork Coal and Coke Company, at Thacker. Fearing an ambush they waited until morning ?nd early today set ut for Thacker. Some time before noon they attempted to serve the injunction papers at the above named colliery. A mob followed, enranged to desperation at the sweep ing character of the injunction. One reckless fellow fired the first shot and quiCk as lightning the mountain sides' echoed and re-echoed with resounding reports that folowed the crack of 20 or 30 rifles.. The deputies were forced eo take refuge in flight and then barely escaped with their lives. The strike situation is asuming a dangerous stage. Sheriff Hatfield has withdrawn all his deputies because it is said he does not believe in the policy 'being used to put down the strike. The United States marshals have been left alone and afted being chased from the fields today it is believed that they will be strongly reenforced and ready to fight when they again appear to enforce the injunction.

Cleveland Plain Dealer. The Star Theatre was filled last eve ning, when the famous negro wonder, Blind Tom, accomplished many thiDgi in the way of piano playing. While Tom did many things that were remark able, the most wonderful was his play- 1 ig of an air that he could not have heard before. He invited any man io the audience to step on the stage and play any selection he chose and h would repeat it rigat after him. Mn. Wilson G. Smith, the composer, accep ted the invitation and played one of Us own compositons as yet unpublihed, and of so recnt a date that it hat had no public performance anywhere. The blind negro sat down on the stool as Mr. Smith had left it, and repeated it, every note being true and correct. He also played Gottschalk's 'Last Hope" Rossini's "Moses of Egypt," aad sev- era other numbers. He also repeated a speech he had heard in 1860 flail vrod uj . u.
