A Delihernte Lynohing Party.

Lynching parties are not always fren-
zied with passion. Sometimes their pro-
ceedings are characterized by all the de-
liberateness and solemnity Of regular
court. The crowd that lynched Murderer
Mitchell at Syracuse, Kan, on Wednes-
day of last week, for instance, quietly
led the murderer to the scene of the muir
der and there compelled him to confess
Then he was told TO pray, and for almost
an hour the crowd listened reverently
while the wretohed man made a ram.

upon their knees while the man prayed
promptly took him in hand and strung

oThe American puchess., :,

Says @. NJ. Smalley in his London letter
to the New York TriJmc' The American
Duchess is the name which London has al.
ready bestowed on His Grace of Marlbor-
ough's bride. There is great curiosity
about her her appearance, her fortune,
her family, her future and her relations
to her husbands family. On the latter
point all doubts are put at rest by the
Dowager Duchess of Marlborough, who
approved of the match from the first and
who announces that they will come TO her
house in GrOsvenOr Square for the first
week or two of their stay in London.
That disposes of the social question. The
position of the Dukes mother is such that
her support will insure the new Duchess
good reception. anybody with ESQ,
600 year will have good reception in
London" grOwled one elderly cynic.
That is not quite so, rs at least one recent
example shows. But a lady who enters
London society backed by the Marlbor.
ough family, which includes the Dowager
Duchess, and Lady Our2on and Lady
Randolph Churchill, has little to fear.

No International Rowing.

Oxford and Cambridge oarsmeh say
that it is unlikely that Yale's challenge
will be accepted this year. The summer
vacation has began, and after the Henley
regatta, which takes place this week, the
graduates will be scattered, and it will
be impossible to get together and train a
crew before next spring. The captain of
the Cambridge crew, however, says they
might possibly arrange to row Yale, if an
early date is fixed for the race. He thinks
to get crew composed entirely of Cam
bridge men, good mixed Oxford and
Cambridge crew might be formed.

The SWI1CHMEN.

CHICAGO, March 24.-Freight traffic on
the Burlington, which yesterday was mov-
ing practically the same as before the en-
gineers strike, is today at standstill
again. This condition of affairs is due to
the action of 200 switchmen employed in
the Burlington yards here who struck
early this morning without any notice
whatever to the road. The switchmen at
Aurora, Ills, also stopped work but that
was the only outside point affected as far
as the company knew up to 9 O'Clock
this morning. The officials decided
however, to move no freight
at all until this second strike is settled
and with the exception of the live stock
trains transit no freight is moving with
the exception of passenger traffic The
company has received no notice at all from
the switchmen, and no grievance has been
presented yet by the switchmen. Late
yesterday afternoon rumors of the con-
templated strike We're in circulation around
the Burlington headquarters, but a care
full investigation failed to reveal anything
definite. Some of the switchmen told the
general superintendent that no strike was
contemplated. but others said that they
We're tired working with incompetent en-
gineers. The railway officials claim this
reason is the merest bosh, that since the
new engineers have been at work
not a finger has been pinched or
coupling bar broken, as one
of them put il this morning, In the yards
this morning and around the brotherhood
headquarters 1t was common gossip that
the switchmen had been taken into the
fold of the brotherhood in consideration of
their going out on strike. The officials
of the Switchmen's Association have been
very anious at the beginning of the strike
that the Brotherhood of Engineers should
take them into their council and place
them on the same footing as they have
done with the firemen, but the engineers
seemed 10th to do it, and gave as reason
that when strikes occurred among the
switchmen it was not long before coupling
pins We're flying through the air and not
long after that the military or militia
We're called out. A committee from the
Switchmen's Union will visit the general
superintendent Monday, and until that
conference is ended at least, nothing will
be done

MEETING OF THE STOCKHOLDERS OF THE
ARKANSAS VALLEY AGRICULTURAL
ASSOCIATION.

A stockholders meeting of the Arkansas
Valley Agricultural Association was held
at the Sons of Herman hall yesterday af-
ternoon, at which there were forty or fifty
present. Mr.. A. B. Fisher was called to
the chair.
Mr.. ID. NJ. Dale, one of the stockholders
attorneys, made statement of the legal
situation, which was extremely gratifying
An assessment was levied on each share of
stock to defray expenses of litigation, the
amount assessed and the liberal response
of the stockholders present insures plenty
of funds for fighting purposes. The fol-
lowing resolutions were adopted:
WHEREAS, Pin the case of c.. S. Eichotts
representing the stockholders of the Ar
kansas Valley Agricultural association
against the board of directors of the same
having resulted in decision of the district
court that the acts of certain members of
said board of directors, viz: H. n Beck
ham, I. d. Fouts, d. A. Mitchell, j. c..
Davis, A E. Dodge, Jno. Mccormick AR.
J. RoZey, l.. Simpson and K. r. Hatfield.
in issuing to themselves and friends of $40
shares of said association stock at five dol
lars per share, when they knew the same
to be worth about 500 per share was fraud,
and the said $40 shares were declared can
celled and the board are forever barred
from again issuing the same; and
WHEREAS, The said board of directors
have failed to call meeting of the stock
holders for the election of board of di-
rectors in accordance with the charter and
bylaws. Therefore
Be it resolved, That the board of direct
ors of said association are earnestly re-
quested to cal meeting of the stockhold-
ers of said association that they may elect
a board Of directors in whom they have
confidence.

THE ROYAL ARCANUM.

Tothe Editor of the Eagle.
There is no benevolent insurance associ-
alton in the country more deserving of at
tention and favor than this one
1t has membership, possibly the largest
of any similar association in this country
numbering more than $1,000, and confined
to the more healthy states. 1t does not
reach out for patrons into unhealthy To-
calities. It's purpose is to furnish life in
surance of $1,000 to its members for the
lowest possible sum consistent with safe
ty and sound business principles on the
well established death rates.
The assessment is graded according to
the age of the member at the time of his
admission, so that each one pays only for
his own risk, and not that of an old person.
The rate is from 81, for 81 years of age to
So for person 80 years old, and the as
sessments average one per month, or pos
sibly thirteen per year. All applicants
are submitted to rigid physical examin-
alton, so that healthy body of men are
brought together, with none but the best
of risks.
Then the social features are of much val
ue, as well as pleasure.
A council of this order has now become
one of the institutions of this city, and
should at once command the attention and
patronage of all healthy men who wish to
carry an insurance to protect those who
may be dependent upon them.
The council has it's hall in the Getto
building, and meets the second and fourth
Monday evening in each month. All
members of the orders in the city are in
vited to visit the council. Sessions on
above named evenings. c. .. NJ
