On account of cruelties perpetrated
on a negro convict, Fred Kent, at the
convict camp, at Jakin, Early county,
Ga, on May 16th, 1900, and trom the
effects of which cruelties Kent died,
the stato prison commission has issued
au order for tho officials in charge of
the camp to swear out a warrant for
murder for Wills Ponder, deputy war-
den of the camp, and sor accessory at-
ter the fact for Dr. H. G. Minter, the
camp physiclan, and requested Govern-
or Candjer to have the solicitor gen-
eral of that circuit prosecute the two
men. The order also discharged Pon-
der and Minter from the servico of the
etate.
‘The order and the manner in which
the convict was treated has caused a
tremendous sensation at the capitol
and in Early county where the cruel-
ties were Infiicted and judging from
the position the prison commisson has
taken In the matter, the two men will
be prosecuted to the fullest extent of
the law. State Warden Jake Moore
has filed a report with the commission
telling the result of the Investigation
which he was ordered to make and
from his statement, which fs as accu-
rate as cou'd be secured, owing to the
length of time that has elapsed, the
convict was horribly treated.
‘The attention of the commission was
first called to the matter by one Simon
O'Neill, a Savannah policeman who
‘was sent up for manslaughter, and who
was pardoned a few weeks ago. O'Nelll
téld, the story of the treatment of
Kent for the first tlme, and when the
members of the commission saw the
article they Immediately began an In-
vestigation.
According to the report of State
‘Warden Moore, Kent, upon tite orders
ot Ponder, who was deputy warden of
the camp, was p’aced in a room by a
hot stove and was completely covered
by 15 blankets. He was kept In that
postion for fuRy two hours, and was
finally released when it was seen that
he was nearly exhausted. Dr. H. G.
Minter, the camp physician, was sent
for, and he exertcd every effort to save
the man, but it was seen at once that
he would die. Late during the night
Kent died from the effects of the pun-
‘sbment,
“Che manner In which Kent was pun-
%ued was not reported to the commis-
sion. Dr. Mnter, in his report, had
the following explanation: “Admit-
ted to the hospital May 16, 1900. Died
of cerebral congestion co May 17th.”
‘The commission believing the report to
be true, made no further investigation
of the facts until the statement from
O’Nell appeared in The Atlanta Jour
nal,
Warden Vittitoe, who was. perma-
nently In chargo of the camp, but.who
was away from Jakin at the time the
punishment was Inflicted, died shortly
after Kent did. Ponder says now that
the reason he made no report of the
yatter was because Vitt!toe had sald
he had Informed Warden Mooro of it
‘vhis Warden Moore says Is untrue.
Dr. Minter says he falled to report it
beeause he was promised by. the war-
den that It would not occur again,
State Warden Moore in his report
says that the death of Kent was a dia-
‘Dolical crime, committed in day ight
with a number of witnesses present.
He says he talked with several of the
convicts there at the camp and they
to'd him they dared not tell for fear
of punishment themselves.

‘The following cdblegran was re-
velved at thd navy department Tues.
dey from Commander Mctrea, of the

teh Monday:
“Affairs arp vety disturbed at Capo
‘Haltlen: Unorgauizett mob in the city.
‘Foreign consuls have been threatened.
WHI give protection on board. 1 will
prenget bombardment without due no-
ice.”
The state department has no hesita-
tion In fully approving the energotlc
and efficient action of Commander Me-
Crea in taking care of the foreign con-
suls and In preventing @ bompard-
ment without warning. ‘The American
and foreign Interests in Cape Haltien
are large and an American captain Is
required by the unwritten law to look
after the life and property of otfier for-
elgn residents, as well as Americans
in such cases. It fs sald that the rules
of International law, as well as the dic-
tates of humanity, require that proper
notico be given before a bombardment
In order that women, children and non-
combatants may leave the town and
carry off their personal belongings.
Althought there is no naval vessel
tayo those now actually engaged in
such service_as the Machias within
1,800 miles of the varlous seats of
trouble in Central and South America
and the West Indies, the navy depart-
ment feels that the Machias is suf-
clently largo for the work at hand at
this. point.
The Machlas is a vessel of 1,177 tons,
carrying elght 4-inch rapid fire guns
and a crew of eleven officers and 143
men. While; not many men could be
spared for a landing party, the vessel

PONDER HELD FOR MURDER.
Discharge Ordered In Case of Dr, Min-
der—Death of Convict Probed,
At the commitment trial held at
Blakely, Ga., Tuesday morning Willis
Ponder, the former warden at the Ja-
Kin convict camp, was bound over te
voluntary manslaughter. His bond
was fixed at $5,000, which he gave. Dr.
H, G. Minter, who was formerly con-
nected with the camp as physician,
was released. ~
The trial was held before a justice
of the peace in Blakely and was at-
tended by a large crowd. .Solicitot
Laing represented the state. Ponder’s
case will be heard in the superior court
fn the near future. “
The evidence tended to show that
Captain Vittetoe, who afterwards
died, preventing thus a prosctution by
Early county grand jury at the time,
was responsible for the infilction of the
cruelty from which the negro died,
‘The evidence also showéd that Ponder

Is held because ho was present in the
camp as yard man and took no stejjs

come deputy warden,
A feature of the tay was a pett-
tion to the prison board signed by ev-
ery convict but three jn Jakin carfip,
asking that Captain Ponder be re-
stored to them, stating taat they have
been better treated under him than un-
der any previous warden. ;
Both Ponder and Minter have been
dismissed from the scrvice of the.state
by the prison commission, and will no
longer be employed at tho convict
camps.

O'NEILL MAKES BAD BREAK,
‘OF Mate Clty Guard,
Charges have been preferred against
Captain James F. O'Neill, of the Gate
City Guard, of Atianta,-Ga, and it fs
quite probable that ‘a courtmartial will
be ordered within the next few days.
The charges come as a result of an
Incident that occurred while tho Fitth
regiment was in camp xt Wrightsville,
N.C. Céptaih O'Ne!"l ts charged with
striking an enlisted man. The com.
plaint was filed by Corporal Henry
Dunwody.
According to an eye witness the facts
are as follows.
“One night during the camp Mrs.
Dunwody who was standing In the ho-
tel with a party of ladies, wken Cap:
tain O'Neill approached the party and
stated to Mrs. Dunwoody that he had
deen Informed by the officer of the
guard that her husband had been too
sauch Intoxicated to attend to his div
Ules the night previous." ~
“Captain O'Nelll’s famlly and Cor-
poral Dunwody’s family had been on
such friendly terms with edch other
during tho camp that every one In the
party thought that the captain must
have been Joking. Mrs. Dunwody took
his remarks, serfously, for she-immed!-
‘ately burst Into tears.
“Quite a sensation ensued. The mat-
ter was reported to Corporal Dunwody
and he Immediately sought out the“ofl-
cer of the guard and demanded why he
had made such a statement to the cap-
tain, The officer of the guard denied
having made the statement.
“The next day Corporal Dunwody
went to Captain O'Neill and told the
captain that he thought ho was due an
apology for the remarks that had been
made {h the presence of the ladies.
“Captain O'Nelil replied thet he did
not think It necessary for an officer
to apologize to his inferior.
“at this Corporal Dunwody became
angty and told the captain that if he
was using his rank to keep from apol-
ogizing he was acting the part of the
coward.
“At this Capptatn O'Neil struck Cor-
poral Dunwody In the face. ~
“This closed the incident, as a num-
ber of the members of the company
were present and they caught Corporal
Dunwody and kept him from resenting
tho blow. Corporal Dunwody was
placed under arrest, but was subse
quently released."

BAREST OF LUCK TO,JEFFRIES.
Fitzsimmons Defeated, ochbottermate
er Carries Marke of {Most
Fearful Punishments? ~"
A San Francisco dispatch says: Af-
ter fighting a battle of eight rounds
that was fraught with brililant ard
courageous work, Robert Fitzsimmosg
forfeited his last claim upon the heavy:
weight championship. He was:knocked
to the floor’ by James Jeffries and
counted out after he had so badly pun-
{shed the champion that it was a fore
gone conclusion among the spectators
that the Cornishman must win.
Bleeding from a number of gashes In
the face, apparently weakening and
clearly unable to cope with Fitzilm-
mons’ superior skill, Jeffries delivered
two lucky punches as Fitzsimmons
paused in bis fighting toward him and
turned the tide. ‘The battle was brief,
bout noteworthy, and will live fn pugil-
Istic annals, Fitzsimmons tried once
to“rise from the mat, but sank back
again In helplessness and heard him-
self counted out, where but a moment
before he had all the better of It.
“L will hever fight again,” sald the
battlescarred veteran of the ring,
when he had sufficiently recovered to
talk, *
«The fight was won falrly, and to the
best man beiongs the laurels.” _
> “You are tho most dangerous man
alive,” sald Jeffries In return, “and J
consider myself lucky to have- won
when I did.”
Fitzslmmons had been fighting ata
furious gaft, cool and deliberate, and
chopping the champion to pleces with
the terrific rights and lefts that have
made him famous, and the result was
a surprise.
Before sunddwn long Ines of men
formed on Valencia street and St.
Jullan avenue and awaited the open-
ing of the two gates. At 8:45 p. m.
the house was practically filled. There
was ‘no disorder, however, until &
o'clock, when the crush‘became heavy,
but 240 policemen handled the crowd
well, :
‘The arc lights over the ring were
turned on at 7:45 o'clock, by which
time the bleachers, holding fully 5,000
people, were filled, . .
A conservatiye estimate of tho
amount realized from the ticket sales
places the sum at $35,000. e

‘THE gathering in Atlanta
week ‘willmark an epoch in
race’s history.
Ts ambition of every Ne .2
youth shonld be for the possess on
of a piece of property.
jg@Burcnzn won out at Brunawick,
Zand we congratulate him and the
"Joyal party men of the Eleventh.
Somz of our policemen, as a gene-
ral thing assume more authority
than allowed them. Such mien
should be reported.
Ie the street cars of the city were
provided with fenders the numerous
accidents that have occurred would
no donbt been averted, especially that
horrible killing of two weeks ago.
‘The company, for the safety of its
patrons and the public, shoyld add
this needed life saver to ite care.
Irisa great mistake when certain
of our white friends claim that_they
Rey for the education of the Negro.
+ these friends study the manner
in which the educational tax is
levied and they will soon become
aware of the fact that the Negro is
credited with more than they will
be willing to admit.
* Our recorder of the police court
seemed to have been offended because
witness in his court in alluding to
acolored man, called him “mister,”
and rebuked him for so doing, For
all positions of this kind it is “neces.
sary to have men of broad mind
without taint of smallness. How
often have we wished for a recorder
of lawyer Wilson’s calibre.
In many of our sister cities, the
Negro business men have organiza-
tions at which affairs which most
concern our people in a busmess way
sre discussed and they send_repre-
sentatives to the Business League
which meets annually. If our busi-
neea men are not desirous of organ-
izing they conld come together and
talk over affairs that affect us ina
business way. Such s gathering
would not be withont a germ for
good. The matter shouid be consid-
ered favorably and an early meeting
held.
THE management of Tue Tar-
BUNE is Prout of the fact that there
area number of subscribers who are
loyal to the papel: As soon as their
time expires they do not wait to be
called upon, but send or call at the
office and settle for {the same;
there are others also whom we never
sond a collector to, but matters not
what their bill -amounts to, call and
settle. We are proud of these BY
trons, and too, we generally find
them am ong those of our people who
are eager fér race progress aid will-
ing toadd their mite toward this
end.
Dozine the weeka colored man
was lynchied in Bryan county. He
was accused of assaulting a_white
woman, a crime that we extremely
abhor. He waa captured near Pool-
er and nearly sliot to death and al-
lowed to remain the night without
medical attention. The next morn-
ing hé was taken to Bryan county
and lynched. The colored man in
whose house he was found has been
arrested for hatboring him. We
do not object to the arrest of this
man, esptcially if he did so with the
knowledge of the crime charged to
the dead man, butit seems passin;
strange that nothing has been en
or no effort made to apprehend the
lynchers who are undoubtedly
Known.
‘Taz TRIBUNE deplores the fact of
the absence of that public spirit and
ambition for race enterprises among
our people in this city. There are
opportunities at hand that would
result in great benefita to the pro-
moters if they would only coms to-
gether and inaugurate methods and
take hold of them. We will cite
one instance : We have in this com-
“munity nearly a dozen colored phy-
meians who are enjoying very Iucra-
tive practice, but toour shame not a
drag store. Why can’t these physi-
eians come together and pnt in
abont fifty dollars a piece which,
with the credit they have, would
equip a first-class drag store that
would without the least fear, receive
the loyal.support of the cclored citi-
xens, besides that paying a dividend
fo’ the investors, and at the same
time giving employment to several
members of the race. If the physi-
eiang feel that they are not finan-
cially able to:conduct such a busi-
‘neo AF thay, rswill gvé their moral
‘wapport aa dnfluence, they are oth-
er citizens who Wonld readily invest.
Gontlemen, it is*up to-you! will you
allow this golden opportanity go by
without grasping hold of it 2. -Act
now and let gbeyrepiosee that you
re‘anxions for that-Rhich will lond
‘aid and dignity to the race,
ee »
2 ‘BRE hare been much compisint
“@But the uncalled for treatment of
jored people.at the new Union sta-
tion. This is caueed by the offens-
iveness of the policemen, TH®
‘Tarpune is under the- impression
that the undue zeal of these
policemen is not warrented by’ the
Tequirements of the company and
take this method of informing them
of thesame. The offensiveness of
thes®’officers was noticeable more #0
thia-wWeek‘than any other time since
the opening of the new station.
"They should be made to understand
their duty and to enforce it in a be-
coming manner. If there is any
breach whatever in the conduct of
any colored person around the sta-
tion, it is not. necessary for these of-
ficers to approach euth persons as i
they were brates and void of all sen-
sibilities, They are appointed to
malntain order, not only in action
but in words and they should them-
selves sot the paca for it, Their ac.
tion on Monday has called
forth much protest, especially from
the excursioniste. If -such actions
continue, it will be the means of
making these excursions unpopulat
because the people will be afraid to
come here on account of the treat-
ment they recieve. It is hoped thal
the management of the station wil
take this matter under consideratior
and have it remedied.
Ir is to be deplored that certain of
our young men have recently “acted
in amanger that is not conducive
to their best welfare and retrogres-
sive to the’prospects of other young
colored men in trusted positions.
It isa fact that men of the other
race, in trusted positions, have act-
ed worse than the ones we note, but
in thig case all Negroes. are alike,
and if one commits an offenee,. the
entire race is to be blamed for it.
Our young colored men have too
much at'stake to act other than in
a manner that would add to their
best interest.
Tue management of Tus Trt-
BUNE feels prond of the number of
enconinms extended by friends. We
certainly give employment to a large
number of persona, more than all of
the other Negro papers of this sec-
tion of the state combined, and feel
‘that we deserve such enconium and
the hearty support that is being giv-
en. v
City ‘of Odd-Fellowship.
Some weeks ago the editor of the
Odd-Fellows colamn of the Age, in-
serted an article which we felt re-
fiected on the Odd-Fellows of the ci-
tyand myself. This was refuted in
the issue two weeks ago and in the
last week’sissue of the Age, the edi-
tor explained himself more fally as
folldwe: =
“The editor of this column rises to kindly
say, for the benefit of the fraternity in the
city of Odd-Fellowship, that Brother Sol. C.
Johnson mistakes our kindly remarks iast
week for an intentional reflection. The
Editor bas always entertained the most in-
timate feelinge for the brethren ia Bavanoah
and his remarks in the last issue of The
‘Age were righteonsly intended as refute-
tion of the rumor that there"was on foot a
movement in the Forest City to have the
D.G.L to nullify an order of the honor-
able saperior court of Falton county. In-
stead of saying things nbcomplimentasy to
Savannah or Bro. Johnson, the Editor
vouchsafed that Savannah would be found
oh the right side of every question, sigually
battling for the privetples enabling the Or-
der. Col. Jobnson is not mistaken when
hesays that Savannah can boast of the
strongest add best lodges in the state com-
pod ‘of the most loyat and patriotic mem-
rabip. Savannah is rightfally named
the city of Odd-Fellowship in fraternal par-
lance, and has more members of the links
than the entire fifth congressional district,
“Savannah in common with every other
city and section desires representation upon
the executive committee This ambition in
each and every community is both Iaudable
and praise worthy. This institotion is
purely a democracy in government, where
the humblest cross road Odd Fellow has the
same inherent right to aspire to the highest
place of honor and responsibility held ont
to the brethren. Whilothe Editor will be
roud to help Savannah at Brunswick as he
Riss been dofog for the past ten years. he
does not recognize the superior right of any
section or commanity to representation upon
the board because of its geographical Toca—
tionor numerical strength. Savannah has
little reason to complain about representa-
tion. ‘The Editor does not remember an in-
termission of two years at any time within
the last ten years when Savanaah, did not
have representation. Community” interest
nor favoritism should cat any figare in the
selection of the officers of the Grand Lodge.
The officers should be selected wholly upon
the zoned oftheir pecaliar ftnexe to fill
the places to w! ey aspire, regardless
of the community in which they live. One
thing can be said to the everlasting credit
of Savannah, that no officer elected from
thore has ever brought he name of the or-
der into disrepute. 2\/Savannah Odd Fel-
low has ever stole a cent of the orders
money within the knowledge of the editor,

thing thatcan fe said about Savannab, is

the ribs. He justly accnsed ua of
not acting if unison at the: Grand
Lodge meetings, to which we plead
guilty, but hope to profit by past ex-
perience, and expect that at this
session to show the brethren what

| A large concourse of friends wa:

respect to one loved no less in death
than in life. If itbe true that the

doubly beneficial to the seared old
world amid the conflicts and toils o!

to guide and direct all who live un.

Mrs, Blair was well known it

death was quite a shock to those wh:
knew her.
Children’s Day.
On Sunday evening last, Onild-
ren’s day was celebrated at Cypress
Slash Congregational church. ‘The
recitations and declamations were
good and fall of instraction, it seem.
ed that each boy and girl fae them-
selves into the exercise. ‘The music
was algo good. The addresses by
Brothers Phabian and Donglass were
both pointed and instructive. They
contained many helpfal thoughts
forthe young men: After collection

evening, and every one went away

been there.

SUbCay Was Very Gissgrecauen, 2b
rained the whole day and the at-
tendance was very small. At 11 a.
m. Rev. Cargile preached. Hymn
82, “Come ye that love the Lord,”
was sung by thechoir, Text, John
14:2; anbject, “Notas Christ’s Gifts.”
As usual it was a good discourse. It
showed how God’s blessings once
bestowed upon man romaine that
we as Christians should not give
gradgingly our.time or money, but
give them freely; that whatever
man given us is not Christ’s gifts,
for what man gives may be taken
away, but Chriat’s gifts remain.
| At 8 p. m. the attendance was
yery small on account of the rain.
Rey. Cargile delivered an excellent
sermon. His text was Heb. 4:1;
subject, “Haith in God.” His ser-
mon Was interesting throughout
and showed what a happy life 2
Christian can live, if he places his
faith in God. He is responsible for
every sermon he hears. But there
are gome people who go to church
and pay no attention to what the
preacher says; nevertheless they are
held accountable for all they hear.
A very high compliment was paid
to St. Philip's Sanday school, at the
Sondey School Convention which
was held at Summertown last week

Disorders Occur in Many Points In
the Anthracite Fields—President
Mitchell to Make Tour of
the District.
A Wilkesbarre, Pa., special says:
There are indications that serious trouble is imminent in the anthracite region. Rioting is reported from several points.
At Shamokin one thousand men, women and children assembled at the Mineral Company's Cameron collieries Tuesday evening and hooted and cursed non union men as they quit work. A delegation of hers stared
several sub-bosses as they entered town. Chief Burgess Thomas and the police charged the crowd and put them to flight. The coal company officials say they will ask for troops if there is a continuance of the attempts to annoy the workmen. Two crowds of strikers numbering fully 3,000 men, women and children, collected at all the Reading and Union Company operations, between Mount Carmel and Shamokin, Tuesday evening and hurled stones and sticks at the non-union men. Six of the latter were captured by the mob near Richards' colliery and were badly pummeled. On promising to remain away from the colliery until the strike ends they were liberated
A crowd of fifteen hundred men and boys prevented the resumption of work at the Wanke washery at Duryeaun Tuesday morning. A number of men came down from Scranton to work at the washeries. They were at once surrounded by a threatening crowd. The burgess was appealed to to protect the men, who wanted to work, but he thought he would not be able to do it, and he telephoned to Sheriff Jacobs. The sheriff sent four deputies to the scene, but when they arrived the mob had dispersed.
The men who had been hired to work at the washery were badly frightened and when the train for Scranton came along they jumped aboard and returned to that place. A volley of stones followed them. The operator of the washery says he will not make another attempt to resume operations.
Mitchell to Begin Tour.
President Mitchell will start this week to fill engagements he has to deliver addresses before United Mine Workers' assemblies in different parts of the anthracite region. Ever since Mr. Mitchell established his headquarters in Wilkesbarre he has been besieged by committees from various "locals" who wanted him to name a date on which he could deliver an address. Owing to press of other matters, the chief of the United Mine Workers had to decline all such invitations. But now that he finds that he has a little time to spare, he will try and fulfill some of his engagements. It is said he will visit the Schuylkill region first and deliver addresser at Shenandoah and Mahanoy City.
BATTLE FOUGHT IN HAITI
Firmin'a Forces Repulsed by Small Army Under Gen. Colin.
Acting Secretary Hill, Monday, received the following cablegram from United States Minister Powell, dated at Port au Prince:
"General Colin left Port au Prince yesterday (Sunday) 'morning with 2,000 men to repel Firmin's army, which was landed from the Haltien naval, vessel commanded by Admiral Killick. After a skirmish, which ensued, the forces of Firmin retreated to the war ship. Colin returned to the city yesterday afternoon. The information is that twenty were killed and sixty wounded. The number killed on the other side was still unknown and there was much firing in the city. The Machias has arrived at Cape Haltien."
BILLY'S CAMPAIGN FUND.
Senator is Assured of, $400,000 to Begin His Race for Re-Election.
A Washington dispatch says: Senator Mason is assured of a fund of $400,000 to commence his campaign for re-election. The Cuban-American League, with a membership of 400,000, has sent out an alarm circular urging its members to unite in every legitimate way to promote the candidacy of Mr. Mason. The members may be taxed $1 each should the situation require it.
POLICE RESCUED KITCHENER.
Enthusiastic London Mob Made It Warm for Conqueror of Boers.
Lord Kitchener, who has been largely lost to public view since his triumphant re-entry into London July 12, received an unexpected demonstration of London enthusiasm Friday when a cab in which he visited the city was actually mobbed by enthusiasts close to the Bank of England, and the conqueror of South Africa had to be resued by the police.
And Americans Contending For
Small-Strip of Ground in the
Pacific Ocean.
A cablegram received at the state
department Monday from United
States Minister Buck, at Tokyo, says
that the Japanese minister of foreign
affairs informed him that a Japaeese
naval vessel would leave at once for
Marcus island. The purpose of her going
was not to make trouble, but to
prevent it.
An official of the foreign office was to go on the vessel, and would carry a letter to Captain Rosehill, cabled from the state department here to Minister Buck, advising the captain not to make any disturbance or to resort to violence to obtain possession of the island, with possible loss of life and involving international complications. If the captain would observe this advice, the department said for its part it would endeavor to settle the claim to Marcus Island diplomatically. Captain Rosehill is reported to have sailed from Honolulu for Marcus island in a schooner July 11, and it is, therefore, probable that he already is at Marcus island or very near there.
WILSON'S HIDE SAVED.
President of Nicaragua Commutes Death Sentence of Fillibuster.
The life of Dr. Russell Wilson, of Ohio, was captured with a revolutionist party in Nicaragua, has been saved through the representations of Minister Corea, of that country. A cablegram was received at the state department Monday from Chester Donaldson, United States consul at Managua, Nicaragua, dated the 26th Instant, as follows:
"As a courtesy to the United States and out of sympathy for the mother, the president will commute Russell Wilson's death sentence."
Wilson was one of several Americans who joined a fillbustering expedition which landed at Monkey Point, near Bluefields, early in July. Most of the party were captured or killed. Wilson would have been summarily executed but for the interposition of Senor Corea, the Nicaraguan minister here. Having secured a stay of proceedings and a guarantee of a legal trial, the minister has now induced President Zelyea to commute the death sentence imposed upon Wilson by courtmartial. It is presumed that the commutation is to imprisonment for a time and then expulsion from Nicaragua.
MANY SWEDES WITH US.
Uncle Sam's Domain. Being Rapidly Populated by Foreigners.
The transport lines at Copenhagen, Denmark, are coping with the greatest rush of Scandavian emigration to the United States since the eighties. Every outgoing vessel, Scandavian or American, is crowded. The emigrants, who are mostly of an excellent class, are leaving on account of hard times in Sweden and are bound chiefly to the western states, where they will engage in agricultural pursuits. The total number of emigrants which left this port for the United States during the nine months ending with March, 1902, were: Denmark, 3,333; Norway, 3,049, and Sweden, 15,601.
ESTIMATES FOR MISSISSIPPI.
Commission Reports Amounts Needed For River Improvements in 1904.
The Mississippi river commission, having in charge the work of improvement of the river from the mouth of the Ohio to the head of the passes, has submitted its report to the chief of engineers. The estimates for the fiscal year 1994 are as follows: Continuing work under the commission, $2,000,000; protection of hauks at Caruthersville, $30,000; harbor at Memphis, $50,000; harbor at Greenville.Miss., $25,000; preservation of works at Della Point, La., $25,000; harbor at Natchez, Miss., and Vidalla, La., $100,000; rectification of the Red river and Atchafalaya river, Louisiana, $30,000; harbor at New Orleans, $300,000.
WOMEN-DEFY GOVERNMENT.
Bloodshed Imminent in France Over Religious Question.
The Catholic women of France are aroused over the application of the law of associations and a serious situation prevails in many sections of the republic.
In the country around Brest the people have taken up arms and are determined to resist any attempt at the forcible execution of the orders of the premier to close unauthorized schools.
TEACHERS WERE WARNED.
Advice Unheeded and They Met Death at Hands of Filipinos.
A copy of a Manila paper has been received at the war department giving information concerning the trip of the teachers who were murdered in the island of Cebu some time ago. According to a report made by Inspector Ross, of Cebu, the chief constabulary, the four teachers lost were warned by him not to go into the interior, but they insisted that it was safe and took the risk.
The Siberian railroad traverses the greatest-wilderness that steam has ever been set to conquer. The taming of our Western prairies and mountains was a small task compared to this subjection of the Siberian wastes. An experience on a.train, related by a writer in a Vladivostok paper, reminds one of the early stage-coach days beyond the Mississippi, and seems even more violent because the participants in the adventure were not rough plainsmen and mountaineers, but a lady and a nobleman.
When the train pulled up at Tataskar in Manchuria, a Manchu noble, who had bullied all his fellow passengers, alighted at the station restaurant, after warning them that he would decapitate any of them who took his seat. During his absence a smartly dressed young Russian lady entered the car, and despite the alarmed expostulations of its occupants; calmly appropriated the seat.
When the noble returned he flew into a passion and advanced threateningly with his curved saber drawn. But the young woman coolly covered him with a shining revolver.
The Manchu noble surrendered, and sat at her feet for the rest of the journey.
LANGUAGE.
"It's wonderful," said the meditative man, "how one small word, insignificant in itself, may induce an endless train of thought, speaking volumes in fact."
"Yes," replied the caustic man. "Take the word 'but,' for instance, when a woman says, 'Of course, it's none of my business, but.'"—Philadelphia Press.

"That is Ajax defying the lightning."
"Well," answered the man with the timorous manner; "there's always a strong chance that lightning won't hit anybody. If the same amount of electricity had been after him in theattery of an automobile I don't believe Ajax would have been so courageous."—Washington Star.

Report Current that Atlantic Coast Line Will Absorb the Louisville and Nashville.
A Baltimore, dispatch says: It is impossible to obtain an authoritative expression or opinion on the rumor that negotiations are pending looking to the absorption by the Atlantic Coast Line of the Louisville and Nashville railroad, which is controlled by J. Pierpont Morgan & Co. In financial circles the general impression prevails that the report is well founded.
"I think Mr. Morgan has already practically turned the road over to the Coast Line," said a member of one of the leading Baltimore banking firms. "The two roads do not parallel anywhere, and have a physical connection at Augusta, Ga., through the Georgia railroad, which runs from Atlanta to Augusta, and which is leased jointly by them.
"Such a deal would eliminate that hostility in Tennessee and Kentucky which aroused the rumor that the Louisville and Nashville will be merged with the Southern railway. These roads parallel and are competitors in both states, and, following the report, Governor McMillin, of Tennessee, has threatened to call a special session of the legislature to pass a law that would prevent a merger. It is thought that When Mr. Morgan purchased the Louisville and Nashville he had in view its transfer to the Coast Line. Morgan & Co. manage the Southern railway, and have been working in complete harmony with the Coast Line. The absorption of the Louisville and Nashville would give the Coast Line control of the railroad situation in the section southeast of the Mississippi river."
MOTHERS HORRIBLE DEED.
In Drunken Frenzy She Murdered Her Three Little Girls.
Richard Meade, a night watchman, on returning to his home in Brooklyn, N. Y., Saturday, found his two little daughters dead from strangulation, caused by twine tightly tied around their throats. A third child was unconscious from the same cause, and his wife lay in a comatose condition on the floor, apparently suffering from alcoholism combined with poison.
According to the police, the woman was, of intemperate habits, and the supposition is that she strangled the children while in a delirious condition.
The oldest child was three years of age. Her body and that of her one-year-old sister were lying on the bed with several yards of stout twine about their throats. The other little one was still alive, and was removed to the hospital with the mother. The babo's injuries are probably fatal, as the slender cord had cut deep into its throat.
PRESIDENT APPROVES.
Satisfied With Findings of Courtmarrial in Three Cases.
The president has retuited to the war department the cases of Major Edwin S. Glenn, Fifth infantry; First Lieutenant Jullan P. Gaujot, Eighteenth cavalry, and Lieutenant Northian G. Cook, Philippine scouts.
Glenn was found guilty by the court and sentenced to be suspended for one month and be fined $a0; Baujot was found guilty and sentenced to suspension for three months, to forfeit $50 per month during that period; Cook was acquitted.
The president makes no comment whatever, beyond the approval in the two cases and disapproval in the one.
Glenn was tried for administering the water cure to the presidente de Igliaras, and Gaujot for administering the ciree to three natives. Leutenant Cook was tried on the charge of ordering three natives to be shot by the Mueabebe scouts.

Says: "It Will Build Up a Depleted System Rapidly."
Ihon. W. F. Aldrich, Congressman from
Alabama, writes from Washington, D.C.
Alabama, writes from Washington, D. C.: "This is to certify that Peruna, manufactured by The Perund Medicine Co., of Columbus, O., has been used in my family with success. It is a fine tonic and will build up a dep b system rapidly. I can recommend it to those who need a safe vegetable remedy for debility."—W. R. Aldrich.
II. S. Emory, Vice-Chancellor and Master of Arms, K. P.'s, of Omaha, Neb., writes from 213 North Sixteenth street, the following words of praise for Peruna as a tonic. He says:
Catarrh of Stomach.
"It is with pleasure I recommend Peruna as a tonic of unusual merit. A large number of prominent members of the different Orders with which I have been connected have been cured by the use of Peruna of cases of catarrh of the stomach and head; also in kidney complaint and weakness of the pelvic organs. "
"It tones up the system, aids digestion, induces sleep, and is well worthy the confidence of sufferers of the above complaints." -II. S. Emory.
Nervous Debility.
Everyone who is in the least degree subject to nervousness, sleeplessness, prostration, mental fatigue or nervous debility in any form, finds the hot weather of June, July and August very hard to bear, if not dangerous.

The only safe course to take is to keep the blood pure, digestion good, and sleep regular. No remedy equals, in all respects, Peruna for these purposes. If the, system is run down and weakened by catarrh, Peruna renovates and rejuvenates the nerves and brain.
A book on the catarrhal diseases of summer will be mailed to any address, upon request, by The Peruna Medicine Co., Columbus, Ohio.
The above testimonials are only two of 50,000 letters received touching the merits of Peruna as a catarrhal tonic. No more useful remedy to tone up the system has ever been devised by the medical profession.
