FIND THAT AMERICAN
LAW
Can Not Be Trampled Under
Foot At VIII,
And LiFes and Properly Be Destroyed
at Pleasure.

CHICAGO, AUGUST 20.-The jury
in the Anarchist cases has come
in and rendered a verdict OF
guilty. The verdict meets with
The heartiest approval. The de-
PENDANTS turned ashy pale at the
announcement and Spies appear
ed ready to faint.
All save::Niebe were found guilty
of murder in the first degree, and
sentenced 10 hang. Niebe was
given fifteen years in the Peni-
Tertiary.
The verdict. meets the appro-
val of nearly every one. The An
archists are staggered by the blow
and had to be assisted to their
cells. The few woman who have
been sending the fiends flowers
broke into tears at the verdict,
but all others are applaudlng.
August Spies, Louis Lingg, A.
r. Parsons. Sam Fielden, Louis
Engel, Adolph Fischer and Mich
ael Schwab, are the men senten-
ced TO hang. Oscar Niebe gets fiji
teen years. The most intense eX-
element prevailed. Schwab's
sister tainted. The convicted
mems counsel at once moved for
a new trial, but Judge Gary told
him he was too previous and ad-

The Fail OF Babylon.

A realistic representation OF
the Fall Of Babylon will be..giveli
at Union Ball Park, Cincinnati,
| O., under ihe direction of the or
der of Cincirnatus from Sept. 6
to 18th 1856, inclusive.
This memorable event will BE-
portrayed upon the largest stage
ever erected in this country, be.
ing four hundred aud fifty feet in
length. and one hundred and ff-
ty feet deep. :The costumes OF
the five hundred and odd charac-
tiers, together with the proper
ties, will be gorgeous and in keep
ing with the grandest scenic eff
fects ever shown TO the public.
The storming Of the city, intro
ducing Chariots, Battering Rams
and CatapuIts OF full size and
correct design, throwing huge
stones and balls Of fire over the
walls Of the city, will at once be
startling and magnificent.
Incidental to the performance
will be a chorus of Chaldean
Priests; the lamentation of the
Jews by the Waters of Babylon
Ancient athletic games and exer
cises professions Of victorious
armies, and many interesting in
cidents illustrating life in Baby
lon at that period of time. Next |
will be shown the feast of Bel !

dancing and revelry is shown the
handwriting on the wall, which !
is Interpreted 10 the King by tn c
prophet Daniel. The entrance
of the army of Cryus after turn
ing the channel of the River Eu-
is the signal for the
slaughter of the inhabitants, the
pillage of the temple and palac
es, and killing of Belshazzar by
Cyrus. In the burning and des-
truction OF the city the climax of

Last week an inmate Of the
Franklin Co. Infirmary, a woman
said to be "devllish." ran away
from The Institution. She was
found and brought back. A man
in the employment of the Instl
tuition, acting under the eye OF
the Superintendent, took a yard
or more of Rubber Hose and beat
the poor girl She died. The
Governor of the State has ordered
an investigation and it is thought
the woman beater will be sent to
the penitentiary.
She was not blind, and her
name was net Maria Johnston
Her name is Ida Crawford, a
name that will haunt the brutes
who beat her 10 death, and stand
for all time as spectre in front

How CIeveland's Mayor Treats the
Anarchists.

How CIeveland's Mayor Treats th,
Anarchists.
There is IN the city of Cleye-
land a small but very dangerous
body of Anarchists. Already, in
the past, have they exhibited
their sentiments in characters OF
blood. Very naturally they felt
aggrieved that seven of their fell
lows should be sent TO the gal
lows in Chicago, and they pro-
posed 10 hold a public meeting TO
sympathize with the doomed
murderers, and 10 denounce their
sentence as an outrage. They
sent word TO the Mayor thas they
proposed TO hold such meeting
and asked to be protected therein.
His answer came swift and
sharp. 1t ran to The effect that
if they should make any such al
tempt he would use every posi-
BILE power at his command to sup
press the meeting and TO bring to
punishment every one engaged
therein. That is the way 10 do
it. Crush them out, root and
branch. Stamp them out wher-
ever found. Honest labor has no
sympathy with them. Society
has no use for them. They are
just SO many rattle snakes, just
so many mad dogs. Let the world
know that this side of the Attain
Tic they will not be tolerated for
a moment.

Modern Lcpers.

We read that in ancient time
- the tombs and caverns among tn,
hills surrounding the CITY of Je
rusalem were inhabited by lep
ers. Though they might looE
down at any time upon the homes
of their youth, they were as com.
pletely exiled from the world as
if they had been sent to the north
Or south poles. Their exclusion
was a fulfilIment Of the law, and
the law was designed to save the
populace from being contaminat-
ed by the loathsome disease. The
law was a wise conception. and
it is a wonder that the objects
aimed at in its provisions have
not been considered of sufficient
significance TO attract the atten
ton Of philanthropists of modern
times.
There may be no analogy be-
tween leprosy and some of the
diseases that are current in the
land to-day, but as there is little
difference in the:final results, the
alliance should be completed, and
though the condition of the mod |
ern ally might not justify the
rigorous treatment needed the
lepers of ancient times, there
should be some effort made TO
stay the dissemination of modern
leprosy.
Its an insidious poison. 1t is
not OF to-day or to morrow, but
may poison the blood of many
generations to come. 1t is ours

life for the unborn babe, that is
