Murderer Flanagan and S birds Attack the
DESPERATE BATTLE IN JAIL
Murderer Flanagan and Seven Other Jailbirds Attack the Sheriff.
Was Won.
The DeKalb county jail at Decatur, Ga., was the scene of a terribe fight Saturday night between Sheriff Talley and eight of his prisoners who made a bold and desperate attempt to escape.
VOL. XV.
ODDS FEARFULLY UNEVEN
Colored Janitor Stood Bravely By Sherifl's Side Until Fight
In the fight the sheriff used his pistol, and Edward Flanagan, the notorious double murderer, was shot. Among those who took part in the attempt at jail delivery were George Bankston and John Pendley, the men who were mixed up at one time in the murder of Policeman Ponder at Atlanta. Flanagan was one of the leaders in the assault upon the jailer, and held as a weapon the heavy padlock which had been sawed from the jail door. The affair was one of the most terrific hand-to-hand fights that ever occurred in a prison between jailbirds and prison keeper, and but for the fact that the sheriff acted with the greatest coolness and bravery, some noted and desperate, prisoners would now be at large, and among them the notorious Flanagan.
The sheriff was assisted by his nogro janitor, Jim Smith, and it was the negro whom Fianagan attacked, trying to brain him with a heavy padlock. The striking feature of the jail sensation was the fact that the knife with which the lock was sawed or filed was owned by Hiram Sharpe, the man who brutally murdered his wife near Lithonia about a month ago. With this part of the story contes the statement from the sheriff that a few moments before the fight with the prisoners, Sharpe secretly armed himself with a heavy iron bar, an act the significance of which was not realized until the encounter was over.
The attack upon the sheriff was sudden and without a word of warning. Eight prisoners, all charged with grave crimes, sprang upon him as he passed the cell door. The sheriff thought the door securely fastened and when he saw it swing open and the eig. t desperate men rush upon him, he backed off a few feet and cried out to his negro janitor to stand by him. The negro, displaying remarkable bravery, stood his ground.
For several minutes the fight lasted. The prisoners were endeavoring to beat down the sheriff and the negro, for if this could have been accomplished, nothing stood in the way of their liberty except a run through an open corridor and a dash through the residence portion of the jail which had only unlocked doors.
The sheriff knew the situation and he struggled with his assailants with a determination to conquer or be trampled under foot. All the while, the negro janitor stood by the side of his officer ready to go down with him.
For a while the sheriff could not get an opportunity to draw his pistol, which was in his hip pocket. When he finally did, he pulled loose from the prisoners and backing quickly toward the outer door he began to fire. The negro janitor dropped to the floor to keep from being shot. The suddenness of the firing dismayed the prisoners. Flanagan reeled and fell. A bullet had struck him. Three shots were fired, and that was every bullet the sheriff had in his pistol, and if the prisoners had known this they would not have retreated as they did into their cell. The retreat was what the sheriff looked for.
He jumped through the corridor door, slammed it to and fastened the lock. The fight was over. The sheriff and his loyal janitor had won the day. The jailbirds were safe.
This was the second time within two months that Flannigan had attempted to break jail. The last time he seized the sheriff's child and made a dash for liberty. He knew that as long as he ran with the child in his arms the
JOHN RUSKIN DEAD.
Was Great Critic and Essayist But a Queer Character.
A London dispatch says: John Ruskin, English critic and essayist, died Saturday afternoon of influenza, aged 81 years.
One of the most remarkable facts in his career as his divorce of his wife. He engaged the great painter, Sir John Millais, to paint a picture of his wife. Millais and Mrs. Ruskin fell in love with each other, but they remained silent. Ruskin soon realized that his wife and Millais were bound by a true love, but made no objection to it, arranging himself a divorce for his wife so that she could marry the painter.
sheriff would not shoot. He was intercepted in the jail office and a desperate fight followed, the sheriff's wife snatching her child from the murderer's arms.
Saturday night the sheriff did not aim particularly at Flanagan, but it seemed to be some direction of fate that he of the others should be shot with the same kind of weapon with which he had murdered two helpless women.
It was about 9:30 o'clock Saturday evening that Sheriff Talley sent Jim Smith, his negro janitor into the lower floor of the jail to clean up the corridor. The negro opened the door leading into the corridor and placed his lantern behind it.
The sheriff followed behind the janitor to see if the prisoners were all right for the night. As he passed a cell Hiram Sharpe, the wife murderer, confined in a cell across the corridor in which the eight notorious characters were locked up, handed him a heavy piece of iron five feet long and four inches broad and half an inch thick.
"Mr. Talley," said Sharpe, "the man in here with me has been hiding this piece of iron and I want you to take it out before it gets us all into trouble."
The sheriff thanked the prisoner and walked down the corridor with the iron bar in his hand.
Not until after the terrific fight with the desperate jailbirds was over did the sheriff remember the significance of the act. Sharpe suspected that the attack was going to be made and he had armed the sheriff so he could defend himself from a sadden assault which might have meant his death.
Sheriff Tallay walked to the back of the corridor. The eight prisoners who had planned the escape were peering at him, watching for an opportune moment to make the break for liberty.
Not a suspicion of what was about to take place entered the sheriff's mind. He had glanced at the doors of all the cells and he had not noticed that any lock had been tampered with. But the men had already sawed the pallock to the door of their cell.
The eight men must have made a slight miscalculation in the distance the sheriff was from their door, and the time it would take to walk to the rear of the corrilor. They threw open the door just as the sheriff was about to repass it. Then the terrific fight took place.
Before they could pass out the prisoners would have to beat down the sheriff and the negro, and this they proceeded to do.
"Stand by me, Jim," cried the sheriff to the negro.
And the answer came back:
"I'm with you, Mr. Talley."
As many men as could get at the sheriff struck him over the head and the shoulders with their fists.
Sheriff Talley fought with the momentary strength of a giant. He hurled the desperate jailbirds from him as fast as they sprang upon him. Jim Smith was not idle. He stood by the side of the sheriff and struggled to keep off the assailants. All this time the sheriff had not had an opportunity to draw his pistol.
Three shots were fired in quick succession, and Flanagan screamed and fell.
Back into the cell the prisoners tumbled in more confusion than they had left it a few moments before.
Sheriff Tally saw his opportunity He sprang backwarn through the corridor door, closed it and turned the key in the lock.
A few minutes later help came and the desperate jailbirds who had made the bold but unsuccessful attempt to escape were safely locked up in their cell for the night.
Flanagan was placed in a chair in the corridor and a physician sent for to dress his wound.
The pistol ball had entered his left thigh about two inches above the knee, inflicting a painful but not very serious wound.
BRYAN IN BALTIMORE.
Talks to Free Silverites on Imperialism, Trusts and the Currency.
Hon. William J. Bryan delivered an address in Baltimore Saturday night upon the political questions of the day to an audience which filled the Music Hall.
The meeting was held under the auspices of the Maryland Democratic Association, one of the free silver wings of the the Democratic party of the state, and was not encouraged or discouraged in any manner by the regular Democratic organization. In fact the latter held strictly aloof from the affair.

UPRISING IN NEGROS.
The Newly Installed Officials Rebelled Against American Authority.
Mail advices from Manila bring particulars of the uprising last month in the southern part of Negros island, in which Lieutenant A. C. Yedyard, Sixth infantry, was killed. Instead of being an unimportant revolt of native police, as was at first reported, it appears to have been an attempt to overthrow American authority. This movement was started by the chief officials of the autonomous government, the men who were elected and inaugurated with so much ceremony last November. Eleven of these officials, including the president and several councilors, were lodged in jail on a charge of plotting treason. Several secured their release under heavy bonds, but others remain in prison.
General Smith found evidence that the revolting police were following the orders of the autonomous government, which designed to use the forces under its control to overpower the Americans. The plot failed through being started prematurely. Two companies of the Twenty-sixth infantry were hurried from Iloilo to reinforce the garrison at Bacolor. The officials arrested include some of the most prominent men in Negros. It is believed that they will be expelled from the island.
ROBERTS COMMITTEE REPORTS.
Voluminous Document, Covering the Investigation, Read In the House.
The reports of the special committee of investigation in the case of Brigham H. Roberts, of Utah, were presented to the house Saturday. The majority report, signed by Chairman Tayler and six of his assistants, is a voluminous document, and is accompanied by a summary of the law and facts. It gives the detail's of the hearing, the ample opportunities afforded to Mr. Roberts to present his case, his refusal to testify and the unanimous finding of facts heretofore published. It proceeds:
"The committee is unanimous in its belief that Mr. Roberts ought not to remain a member of the house of representatives. A majority are of the opinion that he ought not to be 'permitted to become a member; that the house has the right to exclude him. A minority are of the opinion that the proper course of procedure is to permit him to be sworn in and then expel him by a two-thirds vote under the constitutional provision providing for expulsion."
MOB HANGS MURDERERS.
Half Brothers Swung Up In Jail Yard at Ft. Scott, Kansas.
Saturday night, George Silbee and Ed Meeks, half brothers, convicted of murder, were lynched by a mob in the county jailyard at Ft. Scott, Kansas. Their bodies were left dangling from two trees in the yard. The authorities were completely surprised.
The two men, who hailed from Kansas City, had been convicted of murder in the first degree, their victim being a young German farmer named Leopold Edlinger. The murderers disposed of Edlinger's pair of mules, a horse and a wagon in Bates county.
Amos Phillips, an accomplice of the two brothers in the crime, was convicted Friday of murder in the first degree. The evidence showed that the three men belonged to a gang of thieves who had been regularly disposing of their plunder in Bates county.
Before being swung up Silbee shouted to the mob in defiant tones that he himself shot Edlinger and that Amos Phillips struck him on the head with an ax. He insisted that his brother Ed did not participate in the crime.
"Be sure and get Phillips," the doomed men urged.
HONORS ACCORDED DAYIS.
President Kruger, of Transavaal, Sends Private Car For American.
Webster Davis, assistant secretary of the interior, arrived at Lorenzo Marques Sunday on his way to Pretoria and called upon the governor general, Captain Alvaro Dacosta Ferreira, who gave him a most courteous reception and requested him to convey a message of special friendship to President McKinley. The Transvaal government has informed Mr. Davis that President Kruger's saloon carriage will convey him to Pretoria.
BULLER SENDS REPORT.
Names of Dead and Wounded as a Result of Sunday's Fighting.
Just before midnight Monday night the London war office issued the following dispatch from General Buller: "Spearman's Camp, Jan. 22, 6 p.m.—The following casualties are reported in General Hare's brigade as the result of yesterday's fighting: Killed, Captain Ryall, Yorkshire regiment, and five men. Wounded: Second Lieutenant Andrews, Border regiment; Captain McLaughlin, Inniskillings; Lieutenant Barlow, Yorkshire regiment, and seventy-five men. Missing: Eight men. Other casualties will be forwarded when received."
THE MAJORITY AGAINST QUAY
THE MAJORITY AGAINST QUAY
Report Declares He Is Not Entitled To Seat In the Senate.
M'ENERY REPLIES TO PRITCHARD
Louisiana Senator Makes Appeal For White Supremacy In the South. .
At the opening of the senate Tuesday, Mr. Turley, of Tennessee, reported from the committee on privileges and elections a resolution on the case of former Senator Quay. The resolution follows:
"That the Hon. Matthew S. Quay is not entitled to take his seat in this body as a senator from the state of Pennsylvania."
That resolution was the judgment of the majority of the committee. The minority of the committee filed a report declaring that Mr. Quay was entitled to a seat in the senate.
The majority report, opposing the seating of Mr. Quay, was signed by Senators Caffery, Pettus, Turley, Harris and Burrows, the last named the only Republican signing it. The minority report bears the signatures of Senators Hoar, Chandler, Pritchard and McComas, all Republicans and advocates of giving the seat to Mr. Quay.
Mr. Pettigrew, of South Dakota, offered a resolution, which on objection went over, calling on the president for General J. C. Bate's report relating to the treaty with the sultan of Sulu. Resolutions were adopted calling upon the president for correspondence with Great Britain concerning the Clayton-Bulwer treaty; with the Colombian government as to the Panama Canal Company of France.
The Allen resolution calling upon the treasury for information as to all communication with the National City bank of New York concerning the old custom house transfer was adopted. Mr. Turner, of Washington, concluded his Philippine speech bogun Monday and Mr. Ross then spoke on his Philippine resolution. The Ross resolution declared the constitutional provisions do not, unaided by act of congress, extend over the Philippines and Porto Rico; that the United States could take sovereignty of those islands unrestrained by the constitution, etc. It was Mr. Ross's maiden speech.
Mr. McEnery, democrat, of Louisiana, then was recognized to deliver his announced speech on the resolution of Mr. Pritchard, Republican of North Carolina, relating to the proposed amendment to the constitution of North Carolina. He said the race question was one of the most serious which had ever confronted the nation and said:
"So far the best intellects of the south have endeavored to find some remedy to make the south prosperous, notwithstanding the vast number of ignorant blacks, to make her social position clear and defined in the separation of the races and to place her on a political basis that will insure stability to her institutions; make the ballot box the sacred depository of the liberties of the people instead of the channel house where under negro domination they were assassinated; to prevent them by means of the ballot and superior numbers from again getting control of the state and inaugurating the era of terrorism and corruption which prevailed under this government from 1868 to 1877.
"The recollection of that period is like a hell-born dream and one is almost unnerved at the mention. It is the darkest and most shameful period in the history of the human race. The wonder now is that by force it was not sooner terminated by an outraged people.
"Annul the legislation of Louisiana, which has for its sole object the advancement of both races, the progress of the state, socially, politically and industrially, and inaugurate again negro domination in that state the tragic period of 1876 will be re-enacted.
"There never has been any disposition on the part of the people of Louisiana to deprive the negro of any of his political or civil rights. There has been and will continue to be determination, fixed and unalterable, to deny him social privileges on equality with the whites, to prohibit him from aspiring to an equality in social life which nature forbids." Mr. McEnery said that the suffrage article in the Louisiana constitution was approved by all citizens of the state. "From the day that the negro was enfranchised," said Mr. McEnery "and negro domination provailed in the state, until 1876, when it was overthrown, there was an era of corruption, vice and tyranny not equaled in any age."

BRYAN VISITS BELMONT.
Nebraskan Is a Guest of New Yorker at a "Private" Dinner.
William Jennings Bryan was the guest of honor at a dinner given by O. H. P. Belmont Monday night at his residence in New York. The dinner was private, no reporters being admitted, and to a penciled note Mr. Belmont made response:
"There will be nothing at, during or after the dinner for publication. The dinner is a purely social affair and of no public interest."
Mr. Bryan was the only guest of national importance, but big men in Tammany hall were present.
Bryan took breakfast Tuesday morning at the Hoffman house with a number of free silver and single tax leaders. Subsequently he received the newspaper reporters. When asked if he made a harmony speech at the Belmont dinner the night before Mr. Bryan answered:
"I don't know if I used the word harmony or not, but I always speak in such a harmonious strain that no one can object unless he disagrees on the issue. As a matter of fact I talked very little on politics."
Colonel Bryan declined to discuss the letter of Robert B. Roosevelt and others protesting against his entertainment as the guest of the Democratic club. About noon Dr. Leveson, of Brooklyn, an Imperialist, call with two Filipinos, but Mr. Bryan refused to see them. Mr. Bryan's callers were nearly all silverites. The gold Democrats held aloof. Tuesday night Mr. Bryan dined at the Democratic club as the guest of President Kellar will twelve others.
LEEDS IS CONFIDENT.
Transvaal Envoy Declares Hoers Will Ultimately Triumph.
The Brussels correspondent of The New York World obtained the following statement from Dr. Leyds, the Transvaal envoy extraordinary in Europe, before he left for Paris on his diplomatic mission:
"In view of the new and critical phase into which the war is now entering, I send to the people of America a few words on the subject of any eventual proposal in regard to the suspension of hostilities, a desire for which appears to be gaining strength on both sides of the Atlantic.
"I am as confident as over of the ultimate triumph of our cause. A temporary success of the British arms would morely have the effect of infusing fresh vigor into our men and strengthening their determination to hold out at whatever cost."
DEBATE ON ROBERTS CASE.
Chairman Tayler Begins Fight on Utah Man In the House.
A Washington dispatch says: Enormous crowds were present in the house Tuesday to witness the opening of the debate in the Roberts case. Fully three-fourths of the spectators were women. They occupied the reserved gallery tier, and their bright gowns illumined the gloom of the cavernous recess about the spacious hall. The diplomatic gallery alone was a yawning chasm.
With brief preliminaries the resolutions to exclude Roberts and the minority resolutions to permit him to be sworn in and then expelled, were laid before the house, and without any agreement as to a vote, Mr. Tayler, of Ohio, began his speech, in support of the majority resolutions.

BRYAN - IN CINCINNATI.
Nebraska Declares No Farmer or Laborer Cau Afford to Be a Republican.
Col. W.-J. Bryau addressed an audience of 5,000 people at Music hall, Cincinnati, Wednesday night on "Pending Questions" under the auspices of the Cincinnati Bimetallic Council. He announced as his text that the time had come when no farmer or laborer could afford to be a Republican. He said that party had entirely changed front. He quoted from Lincoln's letter to a Boston Republican meeting in 1859, and also from his first message in which Lincoln said that he had no monarchial tendencies in this bedside.
NO 16
BRITONS HOLD THEIR GROUND
Buller Advances While Burghers Slowly Retreat.
BATTLES ARE OCCURING DAILY.
No Detinite Results Can Be Learned at War Office In London
A London cablegram of Sunday says: It is evident from General Buller's dispatch to the war office and the advises to the Associated Press from Spearman's camp that a big battle is now being fought. As far as can be gathered from these dispatches the result remains undecided. The war office—shortly after midnight Saturday night posted the following dispatch from General Buller, dated Spearman's camp, January 20, evening:
"Gen. Glery, with a part of Gen. Warren's force, has been in action from 6 a.m. till 7 a.m. today. By a judicious use of his artillery he has fought his way up, capturing ridge after ridge, for about three miles. "The troops are now bivouacking on the ground he has gained, but the main position is still in front of them. "The casualties were not heavy. About 100 wounded has been brought in by 6:30 p. m. The number of killed has not yet been ascertained."
Nothing was received in London Monday to indicate that any conclusive result had been reached by the British forces in the region of the Upper Tugela, and the lack of information regarding what men and munitions the Boers have in reserve prevents accurate determination of the measure of real successes attending the two day's hard fighting.
All that could be said was that the British seem to be doggedly advancing in the face of an equally stubborn resistance. At the close of Sunday the Boers had merely evacuated their first line of defense to take up another semi-circular position a short distance in the rear, recalling the old burgher ruse by which the Boers have previously managed to entice the British into fatal traps.
Dispatches from elsewhere in South Africa Monday morning give trivial details of minor happenings and do not illuminate the situation.
Early on Sunday morning General Warren commenced a flanking movement on the extreme left of the Boers' position. The infantry advanced at 5 in the morning along the side of Tahamyaana mountain, which ends at Splonkop. The British carefully worked along the hills until within 1,000 yards of a commanding kopje, on which the Boers were concentrated, concealed behind immense boulders strewn thickly over the hill.
The artillery opened the attack and the batteries worked continuously, pouring tons of shrapnel among the Boers, who devoted their attention to muskotry firing on the British infantry. The Boers stuck to their rocky fastnesses with the greatest tenacity and at the conclusion of the day, the British had only advanced across a few ridges. The Boers apparently have few guns and they did little damage. Captain Honley, of the Dublin Fusiliers, fell mortally wounded while leadening is men to seize a fresh point of vantage.
General Buller reported nothing of his operations on Monday and official and press intelligence showed the British as bivouacked Sunday night on the ground they had won after two dava' fighting. The war office turned everybody out of the lobbies at midnight Monday night. Military men assume that fighting must have taken place on Monday that it was probably more severe than on the preceding days. Gen. Buller would not be likely to give the Boers leisure to add to the elaborate entrenchments, to arrange their artillery and to concentrate their forces.
COUNT BONI A DAISY.
Tells of His Losses and Expresses Opinion of Editor-Rodays.
Count Boni de Castellane and the Countess de Castellane, nee Gould, arrived at New York Monday on the French liner La Bretagne from Havre, France. The count was willing to talk about the stories of his losses by stock speculation and gambling. Concerning De Rodays, editor of The Figaro, who published an elaborate story about the affair, the count said: 'De Rodays! He lives... well what is De Rodays? De Rodays is liar. He is a scoundrel; anything you like about him... what is such a person?

cals were devoted to Tay TatBone,

‘Tpone has always spoken against

Him whom he has dedicated his life

he can continue and we hope with a
clear conscience.

than anybody in town or Georgia.”
Ofcourse . we appreciate whut has
been dune for us, but in justice to our
other patrons we have to deny what
the editor has said, for we have on
our books the names of dozens of
men who during the course of a year
gives us ten times more work than
he, and who too, pays the prevailing
market price. Since the editor has
referred to business matters, we will
state that he will never live long
enough to repay us for the services
that we have rendered him. We
have stood by him when he really
needed friends which have been the
cause of turning away from us scores
of our friends,
Ifhe continues in public life and
especially in politics he must expect
to be roasted at times, and we as-
sure him that when the occasion ar-
rives we will do so in great atyle.

I nuticed an article m your pape
written by Mr. Bartow Daniels, datet
Jan. 15, 1900, saying that Judge
Matthews and Col. Akerman will be
ehotd delegates from the 11th Con.
gretsiomal District of Georgia with
out any opposition, To tlink Mr
Daniels was wooting what he thinks
ard he ts the only man in the dis
trict who will aay’ who the delegates
will be froin this district. Ihave
traveled all over the district and
came in contact with the lading re-
publicans in the district, and I can.
not say whe will be the delegates. J
am eure there ure two or three dark
horses yet tu be heard trom, I have
not u word to say against the two
gentlemen, but it seems that Mr,
Daniels wants the ball to begin te
move When the convention meets
ig time to consider these things. The
question will be asked who is Mr
Bartow Daniela? ‘Lhe 14th of Feb-
ruary we will meet in Baxley and we
will elect delegates to the National
Convention, who will they be, no one
can tell, but Mr. Daniels is guess-
ing.

Servants’ Waves:
There are many crying evils to
day, one of which, is the tardy, man
nerin which some employers pa}
their servants.
When it is considered thut the
wages of fhe majority of our people
are pitiably small it must be appar-
ent to all how heartless and cruel it
is to be tardy in paying them.
In justice to some employers it
may be said that they do not pay
their servants promptly becange they
haven’t the money when it is due;
and it isalgo true in some well-to-do
families that there is an absence of
ready cash just at the moment that
the servant's wages are due. -
Such cases are indeed excusable.
On the other hand there 1s anoth-
erclass of employers who through
wanton .thoughtlessness, curetous-
ncss and dishonesty deprive und de-
fraud many an hireling out of his
hard earned wageS
There ig nothing at all commend-
able in such conduct. On the con-
trary it is most reprehensible,
Every man is wurtly of his due;
and to deprive him of that which he
hag acquired by patient and persist-
ent toil, is indeed dishonest.
‘There are persons who are such
bad pay-masters that no one who
knows them will work for them,
credit them or have any financial
transactions with them.
Down the street a family is being
dispossed; the neighbors wonder at
it, because they are industrious and
hard working people. What’s the
cause? ‘Ihe people for whom they,
worked left the city for the summer
owing them their twenty-five or
thirty dollars. Being obliged to pay
the rent in advance there is no mon-
ey on hand :nd_ they are not only
humiliated but are left without food
and shelter for themgelyes and httle
ones.
Many a cook, nurse, butler, coath-
man, dressmaker, ete., ure not only
unable to provide themselves with
the necessities of life, but to pay
their debts, simply because their
employers will not pay them prompt-
ly, ifsatall, Unhke their employera
these unfortunates cannot obtain
credit so easily Ifthey borrow mon-
ey it is at usurions interest.
The Bible speaks most unthorita-
tively coneernmg the payment of
wages. Jerennah predicts the most
fearful results for those who used
“his neighbor’s service without wa-
ges,” and the great law giver, Moses,
explicitly says =
“Thou shalt not defraud thy neigh-
bor, neither rob him; the wages of]
him that is hired shall not abide
with thée all night until the morn-
ing.”
A pathetic story is told ofa little
girl who was told by her mother, a
dressmaker, to collect a bill from a
titled Indy ; she warned the child to
be sure to say “Your Grace” in ad-
dressing her. Fall of innocence the
little creature found herself in the
presence of the lady, and presenting
the bill fell on her knees and said,
‘May the Lord make me thankful]
for what I am about to receive.” ‘The
vomun who up .to this time had
been very tardy” in paying. was 80
struck with the incident that she
aid the vill atonce and turned
ver a new lef, xX. }
Whitman's at the Theatre.
The farewell entertainment of the
Whitman Sisters will take place ac
the Theatre Tuesday night next, tht

Prince Ishmael has consented to
assist in the entertainment. ‘Phe
following his been said of him :
He attended the Jubilee of Victo-
‘tia, Queen of England, as the repre-
sentative of his father, the Mahara-
jah of Ceylon. In Windsor Palace
he performed, by request of her Maj-
esty, before the Princes and Ambas-
sadora of the world. He carries with
him a patent signed by the Queen
showing his rank in the nobilits, of

The Craving For Stimulants
This question has lately attracted a great deal of attention from the medical profession. The use of stimulants seems to be increasing. This clearly shows an exhausted condition of the nerves and blood, which may be remedied by strengthening the stomach. Hiccat's teacher's strengthens the heart. The patient brings all the energy of a stimulant, with no injurious effects. It cures dyspepsia, constipation and nervousness.
He Put It Well.
"Mamma, come, quick," called small Willie from the bed where he was confined with stomach trouble. "I think I'm going to unswallow something." -Chicago News.

PRITCHARD SPEAKS
Against Proposed North Carolina Disfranchising Amendment.
VIGOROUSLY OPPOSES THE CHANGE
Replies To Senator Morgan, Who Had Previously Spoken On the Subject-A Day of Oratory.
Monday was another day of oratory in the senate. Mr. Pritchard, of North Carolina, delivered a long and carefully prepared address upon the race question in the south, his remarks being addressed particularly against the proposed amendment to the constitution of North Carolina, which if enacted, he said, would disfranchise a large class of voters, both white and black.
He was followed by Mr. Turner, of Washington, in a speech on the Philippine question in which he arraigned the administration policy.
Mr. Hoar chairman of the judiciary committee, reported back the resolution of Mr. Rawlins, of Utah, for an inquiry upon polygamy with a recommendation that the first and last paragraphs of the resolutions be adopted. The report was accepted and the resolution as amended adopted. As passed the resolution read:
"To what extent polygamy is practiced or polygamous marriages entered into in the United States or in places over which they have jurisdiction.
"What, if any, steps should be taken or measures enacted for the prevention of polygamy in the United States and places over which they have jurisdiction."
Mr. Pritchard, of North Carolina, then called up his resolution. His address was in the nature of a reply to that delivered several days ago by Senator Morgan. When he remarked that the cry of "negro domination" was the answer given to every proposition made by the Republicans, Mr. Tillman, of South Caro ina, interrupted to say that little else was to be expected when the administration continually thrust negro postmasters on the people of the south.
"There you have it," retorted Mr. Pritchard. "If I should read the ten commandments to the senator he would cry, 'negro' back at me." "We say nigger in the south, not negro," replied Mr. Tillman. "Let us stick to the facts." "The senator may use whatever expression he likes. I'm satisfied to use mine," said Mr. Pritchard.
Mr. Pritchard argued that the question involved the peace and welfare of the nation and the stability of our institutions. The constitution in plain, mandatory and unequivocal language guaranteed to each state a republican form of government. But according to Mr. Morgan's contention, said Mr. Pritchard, the constitution could be violated if it became necessary to violate it in order to maintain Democratic rule in the south. That was nullification, pure and simple.
Mr. Pritchard said that Louisiana was one of the states which, by constitutional enactment, had deprived certain of its citizens of privileges guaranteed them by the federal constitution, and he said that the Democratic party of North Carolina was attempting to secure the adoption of a proposition to amend the constitution of that state in a similar way.
FIGHT AGAINST ROADS.
Florida Commission Want Railroad Fares Cut to Three Cents.
A big legal fight began Monday in the circuit court at Jacksonville Fla., between the state railroad commission vs. various Florida railroads to compel them to reduce the fare to three cents.
The fight will be warm on both sides, the railroads refusing to adopt rules promulgated by the commissioners.
To Unseat Robbins.
The house committee on elections No.1 divided on party lines and by a vote of 6 to 2 decided to recommend the seating of William F. Aldrich, Republican, who contests the seat now held by Gaston A. Robbins, Democrat, for the Fourth congressional district of Alabama.
PROHIS CALL CONVENTION.
Will Meet In Chicago In June To Name a National Ticket.
A call was issued at Chicago Tuesday for the prohibition national convention to nominate candidates for president and vice-president. According to the call the convention will meet at the coliseum, Chicago, Ill., at 10 o'clock a. m. on Wednesday, June 27, 1900.
Cotton Mill For Convicts.
A bill was introduced in the Mississippi senate providing for the erection of a cotton factory by the penitentiary board of control, to be operated by state convicts.
THE HONOR DECLINED.
Grave In Westminster For Ruskin's Body Is Refused.
A London dispatch says: The dean of Westminster has offered a grave in Westminster abbey for the remains of John Ruskin. This honor, however, has been declined by Mr. Ruskin's relatives, who say in their reply to Mr. Bradley that it was the professor's own wish to sleep in Coniston churchyard.
"My income is small," said a rather dilatory lover, "and perhaps it is cruel of me to take you from your father's roof."
"But I don't live on the roof," was the prompt reply.—Harlem Life.
"Three years ago I was badly afflicted with Eczema, and used Tetterine with the most gratifying result. I made a permanent cure after doctors had failed to relieve me. I have symptoms of it breaking out on another part of my person, so you will please send me one box Tetterine by return mail for the 50c. enclosed. W. L. Mounce, 124 St. Marks avenue, Brooklyn, N. Y." Sold by druggists or by mail for 50c. by J. T. Shuptrine, Savannah, Ga.
It is estimated that during the present century nearly 73,000 Jews have become Protestant Christians, over 57,000 have joined the Roman Catholic church, and 74,000 the Greek church. These with those who have left Judaism through mixed marriages make a total of 224,000 in this century. The annual conversions to the protestant church average over 1,400.

All except bad ones!
There are hundreds of cough medicines which relieve coughs, all coughs, except bad ones! The medicine which has been curing the worst of bad coughs for 60 years is Ayer's Cherry Pectoral.
Here is evidence:
"My wife was troubled with a deep-seated cough on her lungs for three years. One day I thought of how Ayer's Cherry Pectoral saved the life of my sister after the doctors had all given her up to die. So I purchased two bottles, and it cured my wife completely. It took only one bottle to cure my sister. So you see that three bottles (one dollar each) saved two lives. We all send you our heart-felt thanks for what you have done for us."—J. II. Burge, Macon, Col, Jan. 13, 1899.
Now, for the first time you can get a trial bottle of Cherry Pectoral for 25 cents. Ask your druggist.

Itching Burning Scaly Blotchy Humors Instantly Relieved and Speedily Cured by
Cuticura
The itching and burning I suffered in my feet and limbs for three years were terrible. At night they were worse and would keep me awake a greater part of the night. I consulted doctor after doctor, as I was travelling on the road most of my time, also one of our city doctors. None of the doctors knew what the trouble was. I got a lot of the different samples of the medicines I had been using. I found them of so many different kinds that I concluded I would have to go to a Cincinnati hospital before I would get relief. I had frequently been urged to try CUTICURA REMEDIES, but I had no faith in them. My wife finally prevailed upon me to try them. Presto! What a change! I am now cured, and it is a permanent cure. I feel like kicking some doctor or myself for suffering three years when I could have used CUTICURA remedies. H. JENKINS, Middleboro, Ky.
Complete Treatment $1.25,
Consists of CUTICURA SOAP (25cc.), to cleanse the skin of crusts and scales and soften the thickened cuticle, CUTICURA Cimentment (50cc.), to instantly allay itching, irritation, and inflammation, and soothe and heal, and CUTICURA RESOLVERY (50cc.), to cool and cleanse the blood. A SINGLE SER is often sufficient to cure the most torturing, disfiguring skin, scalp, and blood humors, rashes, and irritations, with loss of hair, when physicians, hospitals, and all else fall.
