| Transcript: | KILLED BY BI-CHLORIDE. _______________ Tong Fair’s Death attributed to That Treatment. San Francisco, Feb. 12—The death of James G. Fair, Jr. is attributed by his doctors directly to bi-chloride of gold treatment. “Jimmie” Fair was among the first to try it. He declared that it had effected a cure, but his friends notice his listlessness. The doctors say strychnine, which caters so largely into the bi-chloride treatment, affected his heart. Similar cases have occurred here. The dead boy’s father is the wealthiest man in San Francisco, being probably worth $20,000,000. This fortune in great part would in the nature course of events, have fallen to Jimmie fair but for his drinking habits and bi-chloride of gold. ____________ Some Red. Bot Speeches Are Said to Have Been Made. Chattanooga, Feb. 12—Perhaps the most remarkable celebration of Lincoln’s birthday in the country occurred at Coal Creek, in the mountains of Tennessee, where a garrison of guards is standing between free and convict miners. A large crowd was in attendance and red-bot speeches were made by the labor leaders. One of them Ingraham, said: “the eyes of the world are upon you and if a citizen of Coal Creek looses his life in the struggle the Army of the Tennessee will be exterminated.” __________ TWO NEGROS LYNCHED>. _____ They Had Robbed and Burned a Grocery Store in Alabama.
