When he appeared to answer the call he was confronted by a masked man armed -with revolver, who requeued hiui to accompany him. Tarsney called for help quickly, bat was clubbed into submission. Several more kidnappers ' appeared and carried him to the aide, walk where t wo carriage, under gaa rd, were in waiting. He wan forced into one of the carriage and both carriages then driven at a rapid rate to Austin Bluff's.

Tarsney is a brother of congressman Tarsney, of Missouri, and ex-congressman Tarsney, of Michigan. Governor Waite ordered a special train to leave Denver for Colorado springs at 11 o'clock.

Several days ago the Visitor sent a reporter to the extreme southern part of town to investigate complaints which had been made in regard te the dumping of night soil in the field to the left of the Fayetieville road, and in regard to the bad sanitary condi tion of what is known as Hohnan's pond. He investigated the matter thor oughly and fouud great cause for complaint. An investigation was also made by the city health officer and he promised to have the matter attended to. The. evil effects of the pond were remedied by its being refilled with water. The foul snielliug dump piles were also sprinkled with lime and the city carts ceased hauling. Very good; but for how long did they stop? For two days. Today complaint was again made at the office that the carts had commenced hauling the city night soil and refuse and the dumps, which the people, who dwell in that part of the city, think are the cause of so much sickness, were growing alarm ingly. This should be stopped, the lives and health of the people should not be thus endangered. The Visitor has referred to the matter several times before, and it intends to call atten tion to it as Jong as t)Qe are the slight est grounds for "coin plaint. The Weather Report.

Howard, disorderly conduct, was given 30 days on the streets and James Mitchell, a colored youth, was presented with 30 days on the public roads for assault and battery. A Sudden Death. A young man, named Rogers, who lives near Tippers' cross roads, near Raleigh, dropped dead yesterday afternoon at 7 o'clock. He was standing in the door of the R. & G. relief association reading room, apparently in good health, when he suddenly fell to the floor and died in a few moments. The cause of his death was said to be heart trouble. Greensboro a Dry Town. The aldermen of Greensboro, Fri day night, voted ttiat city dry. It seems that they passed an ordinance compelling all bars to front on Main street. Mr. B. J. Fisher has a bar in the rear of the Benbow house and the manager of the hotel refused to move the bar to the front. The aldermen got mud and refused to grant anybody li cense the vote standing 8 to 4. The law goes into effect July 2. Bishop Fitzgerald Yesterday. Bishop Fitzgerald preached two ex cellent sermons at the Edenton street Methodist church yesterday. The morning sermon was especially intended for the ladies of the woman's missionary society. The bishop took as his text a clause in the Lord's pray er, "Thy kindom come." He treated the great idea of the unity of church es in a very clear and able manner, and his sermon fairly bubbled over with humor. The text for the evening sermon was, "Thy will be done." It was an ex cellently delivered sermon and the at tention of the audience was held to the end, as it was during the morning services.. After the service communion was held, bishop Fitzgerald officiating, Miss Wimberly Still Improving. Miss Iana Wimberly, the victim of .Trio Mills is still improving and it is now thought that she has a fair chance of recovery. Her vitality is wonder ful, as her skull was fractured in three different places; the mere fact of lying exposed in an old house, wounded as she was, would have killed most women, or men either, for that matter. If she recovers, as is now probable, John Mills may well rejoice, for in that case he will have committed no capital crime. Come what may, his punishment should be as severe as the law allows, and if he escapes the gallows it will be by a hair's breadth. It is to be hoped that Miss Wim berly may recover in time to add her direct testimony to the circumstantial chain that has been woven about her assailant, and that it will put John Mills in a place of safe keeping from which he can never return to assault and outrage innocent women. It has been learned that Miss Wim berly is so far improved that she was able to speak a few rational words Of course she is not yet sufficiently recovered to be questioned in regard to the crime.

An Interesting Sketch of the Man Who has Bought a Washington Daily. Representative Conn, of Klkhart, Ind., has purchased the WsHliintnii Times, a paper that was started here a few months ago by members of the typographical union, but has made very little headway. After being as sessed $5 or $10 every week for sever al months to make up deficiencies the stockholders got weary of their enter prise, and at their last meeting decid ed to sell out, whereupon Mr. Conn, who is a millionaire and already owns several newspapers in northern Iudi ana, agreed to take the burden right off their hands, pay an appraised price fur the plant and settle all the debts of the concern. Mr. Conn is a notable and eccentric character, and his history is a ro mance. A few years ago he had a bench in the corner of a jewelry store in Elkhart, where he mended watches, clocks and musical instruments. One day while repairing a tuba an idea oc curred to him that was worth several million dollars and resulted in the in vention of a rubber mouthpiece for musical wind instruments, which was patented and immediately adopted all over the world. This lucky little hit made Mr. Conn's fortune. At Elkhart he established one of the largest factories in the world for the manufacture of brass and silver musical instruments, which is run on the co-operative plan, and the profits are divided between himself and his employees. He lias been mayor of the town several times and can come to congress from his district as long as he likes. He be lieves in organized labor and stands half way between the democratic and populist parties. He is against the adminstration, particularly its silver policy, and his object in buying the paper is to establish here an orgau to express the sentiments of those who believe in silver money. It is said, too, that he intends to make a very lively paper, somethiug in the sensa tional line, which will be a new thing in Washington. Washington Letter. ONE EYE DROPPED OUT. The Other Fell Back in the Sock et - Effect of Lightning. During the severe electrical storm which did so much damage in this vi cinity on Tuesday, Mrs. Margaret Wiley, aged fifty years, of 60 West Fourteenth street, lost both eyes, says a Patterson, N. J., telegram. A few minutes before the storm, she was sit ting in the yard of her son-in-law's home, where she lives, eating cherries and enjoying the cool bree7.es that preceded the coldhurst. fhe was suddenly started by a streak of light ning, which, she said, seemed to dart into the ground before her. It was followed almost simultaneously by a loud thunder clap, and the old wo man, pale and badly frightened stum bled into the house. She - dropped into her easy chair, remarking to her daughter what a narrow escape she had, and called Mrs. Dodd's attention to her trembling hands. As she held them up to look at them herself, one of her eyes fell out into her lap. The other eye fell back into its socket and appeared to be lost in her head. Dr. John II. Banta, Mrs. Wiley's physician, says she has been afflicted with tumor of the nose, and that the fright snapped the muscles of the eyes and the balls became dislodged. The eyeball that fell back into her head is coining back in its place, and today it can partly be seen through the small opening of the eyelids. Mrs. Wiley says she can still see a trifle. She ex periences some pain in the empty socket. The twenty-sixth annual convention of the American society of civil en gineers began Friday at Niagara Falls.
