VALUABLE LAW BOOK. Dauchtfir of Oenoral BarraadU At" tempts to Kill the American Mlnleter to UuaUimaU A Law Hook BavtM Ilia Life. Citv , ok Guatemala, Sept 8. A daughter of General Martin Barrundla who was shot to death In the cabin of the 1'aclflc Mall steamship Acapulco, at San Jose de Guatemala last weok, at tempted to shoot United States Minister MUncr yesterday. Mr. Mizner was at the desk translat ing the guarantor) given to him by this Government that Harrundla's life would be spared in caso he was surrendered, when the young woman camo Into the office. As the Minister looked up from his work she was standing within four feet of him with a revolver in her hands. She saluted him, saying: 'Aroyouthe American Minister?" Mr. Mizner replied: "I am. Can I be of any servico to you?" With flashing eyes she accused him of bavlng been directly the cause of her father's death, and announced that she meant to kill him. Mr. Mizner took the matter coolly and tried to reason with the girl, who was apparently al most crazed with excitement, and in the most tragic manner poured on him the bitterest invectivo of which the Spanish language is capa ble. At last she pulled the trigger of the pistol Mr. Mlznor had taken up a heavy law book, which he, with appar ent carelessness, held between himself and the girl and the bullet which was meant for his heart was caught between the leaves of the book. The sound of the shot attracted attention and before a second could bo fired assistance ar rived and the pistol was taken from the young woman. Throughout tho ontlro exciting Inter view, Mr. Mizner maintained tho ut most coolness, though the only thing between Lira and tho muzzle of a pistol held in the hands of a woman who evi dently intendod to shoot him was a heavy law book. As soon as Karillas heard of tho oc currence ho sent his respects and offered tho power of his Government to protect the American legation. Mr. Mizner, however, declined the ofTor, will not prosecute the lady and insists that no further notice shall bo taken ot the af fair. It is genorally believed hero that Uarrundia would havo been In no danger of death had ho not resisted ar rest HENRY GEORGE'S DISCIPLES. Single Tat Advocate Form a National league. Kv.w York, Sept 3.

Bobber Attack a Train In Alabama and Get Little For Their Trouble. Mobile, Ala., Sept 3. The Louis ville & Nashville cannon ball train which left Mobile at eight o'clock Mon day night was held up at Big Escambia bridge, half a mile north of Pensacola Junction, by robbers, who entered the express car and compelled the messen jrer to give up the contents of bis safe. Having secured the valuables, the rob bers jumped off and took to the woods. The first nows of the robbery re ceived in Mobile by tho railway officials was but meager. Tho train was held up about half a mile above Flomaton Junction, and the people there knew very little of what occurred, for the train was delayed seven minutes only. Some surprise is expressed hero that the robbers selected this particular train as it is well known that the other trains carry most of the express money, No. 0, the robbed train, carrying very little at any time and a small amount on this occasion. It is said Rube Burrows was recently seen in Florida, and there is a possibil ity that he ordered the assembling of bis gang at Flomaton and joined them there to superintend the proper conduct of the affair. MR. BLAINE'S VIEWS. Be Talks on Reciprocity at a BspnblloM Meeting la Maine. Watervilt.b, Me., Aug. 8L A great Republican rally was held here last night President Small, of Colby Uni versity, presided. After a short speech by Governor Burleigh, James 0. Blaine gave a long address on the general sub ject of the tariff, uver i.owi poopiej were present In regard to the National question he said: "I wish to declare the opinion that the country has reached a point where its duties are to enlarge the area of its foreign trade. Under the beneficent policy of protection we have developed a volumo of manufactures, which in many departments, overruns the de mands of the homo market In the field ot agriculture with the immense popu lation given it by agricultural imple ments we can do far more than produce breadstuffs and provisions for our own people, nor would it be an ambitious destiny for so groat a country as ours to manufacture only what we can consume or produce only what we can oat We are already in many fabric and many products far beyond that, and our great demand is expansion of trade with countries where we can secure profitable exchange We are not seek ing annexation of territory. Certainly we do not desire it, unless it should come by volition of a people who might ask the priceless boon of a place under the protection of the flag of the Union. I feel that for a time to como the people of tho United States will be wisely con tent with our present area and not launch out on any scheme of annexa tion. "At the same time I think we shonld bo universally content if we do not seek to engage in what the younger Pitt so well termed annexation of trade. For nearly thirty years now the United States has had the advantage of a pro tective tariff by far the longest un broken period that its industrial policy has been in force since the Federal Gov ernment was organized. I do not men tion protection becauso I intend to speak in reference thereto before this audience. I merely wish to pro claim Its victories. Without protection tho United States would hae been poor indeed, after the ravages of the war from 1801 to 1805. With protection every section has flourished and prosperity grown and gained. Even where revenue duties have been laid with no expecta tion of developing industries there have in many instances been greac nnanciai and industrial results." In closing he said: "Our people do not realize the great fact that if specie payment is endan gered in this country it is likely to bo endangered by our present system of trade with tho Latin American States. The few millions of. gold that havo gone out of tho country within the last three months have created uneasiness in cer tain quarters as to our financial posi tion. It is very extraordinary that the loss of theso millions from banks in Wall street should be accounted so serious an event when we have lost a much larger amount during the same period from the condition of our trade with countries south of us without ex citing tho least observation. When our merchants and bankers come to thor oughly appreciate this fact wo shall receive aid and influence in the reform of our trade from a quarter which thus far it has been impossible to enlist" A GIVE-AWAY KISS. Absconder Kimball Iletrayi Himself By Effusively Kurnlng a Woman. New Your, Sept 1. April 2, Frank Kimball, paying teller of the People's Saving Bank at Worcester, Mass., ab sconded with $43,500 worth of bonds and cash, abandoned his wife and two chil dren and ran off to Europe with a fascinating French-Canadian, Estelle Lebon, leaving his family in poor olrcumstances. The guilty pair em barked on the journey abroad from this city. The woman came back to this country alone a few weeks ago and was spotted on the day of her arrival by de tectives of Worcester, who dogged her footsteps every day, thinking to catch Kimball thereby. Letters to the woman were intercepted and it was found Kim ball was about to return. Yesterday the woman went to the deck of the French line of steamers and eyed narrowly every one who stepped down the gang plank. Suddenly she rushed effusively up to a well-dressed, middle-aged man, folded her arms about him and kissed him several times. The love scene was cut short by a detective, who stepped up to them and simply said: "You are my prisoners. Don't make any scene. Come with me." At police headquarters, when searched, all the stolen bonds were found sewed up in the lining, of Kimball's clothing, but the stolen money was all gone. Kimball took his arrest sorely to heart Both were locked up to await requlsi tiou papers from Massachusetts. Australian Strike. MKLBorBXB. Aug. 81.
