Last year the County Commissioners
levied 81 500 TO pay State witnesses. The
unusual number the last two terms OF court
has more than exhausted the amount in the
hands of Treasurer Proctor, who reports that
lie has paid out so 200, of which $500 came
from the contingent fund. When the con-
tingent fund is exhausted State witnesses will
have to wait for another levy.

Holy WEEK, COOP FRIDAY AND EAsTER.-
Last Sunday, March 25th, is in the church's
calender, the Feast of the Annuncation being
also the Sunday Immediately preceding Easter,
1t is Palm Sunday and according 10 ecclesasti-
cal usage, Palm Sunday takes precedence of the
| Feast of the Annunciation. This Sunday is so
called because it was on the first day Of the
week In which He was betrayed and crucifcd,
| that our Blessed Lord entered Jerusalem in
| triumph, the multitude greeting Him with no.
sannas, strewing their garments in His way and
waving palm branches before Him. This beau.
| tful and striking event in our Sayiours history,
this one day of earthly glory in His sutre1-
ing life, viewed in connection with the awful
scenes that followed-the "Ilosannan of Sunday
contrasted with the "Away.with- Him" of Fri
day-is a sad commentary on the instability of
earthly glory and Of poor humanity. The
usual custom OF "blessng the palms" and dis
tributing them to the people, was observed in
all the Roman Catholic churches where services
we:e held.
! To-day, Good Friday, the church commcmor-
ates with solemn services and rigorous fasting,
! the awful sufferlngs and cruel death upon the
cross, of Jesus Christ as an atonment for the
sins of the whole human race
With to.morrow-Ea Easter Evcu-lIoly Week
ends and Sunday, April LIST, will be the glad
festival of Easter, when throughout Chrisen-
dom the Saviour's resurrection will be Joyfully
celebrated because of the assurance it gives to
all who are His faithful followers, that as lie
died and rose again from the dead, so they, like
wise, shall rise from their graves, with never
dying bodies, like TO His glorious body.
By an act of the Legislature Good Friday has
been made II legal holiday. The banks, the

FEATHERS and TAR.
More Brutality by White Caps

A Woman Tied to a Tree and
Whipped
And AfterWard Tarred and

Brutality to a Woman.

LIMA, o., Sept. IA crowd of about
thirty masked men calling themselves
White Caps rode into the little town
of Ada, near this city late last night, and
surrounded the house of Mrs. Strunk.
The leader of the gang demanded admit
lance, but was refused by the woman. A
short consultation was then held, which
resulted in the door being broken down
and Mrs. Strunk dragged out of bed
while the other inmates of the house es-
capped. She was taken to a grove a short
distance from the house, where an i'm
promptu court was established and Mrs.
Strunk charged with keeping a disorderly
houser She denied the charge. but among
her captors were many men who testified
otherwise, and she was accordingly ad-
judged guilty. All her clothing was then
stripped from her and she was tied TO a
small sapling and whipped. but not Sc
verely. Not satisfied with this punish
ment, the White Cap" leader sent two
of his men away after some tar and feath-
ers, which they had evidently prepared
beforehand. The men returned in a few
minutes with the materials and proceeded
to dress Mrs. Strunk insthe unusual cloth
ing. She was then allowed to return to
her home. The village is greatly excited
and it is feared that a repetition of the
outrage may be attempted.

Judge Thurman All Right.

New York, Sept. Judge Thur
man is all right and his only regret is that
he was u nable to speak last night. He
arose at noon and expressed himself as
feeling well, except for a little weakness.
He is very grateful to the people for their
interest in him, and wishes it to be ex-
planned to them that there is nothing in
his condition to excite alarm. He has
simply suffered from an attack such as
the strongest is liable to, and is now all
right.
The Judge expressed himself very much
amused over the insinuation in some of
the apers that his illness of last evening
was due to over-indulgence in intoxicat-
ing liquors. As a matter of fact, he said,
he had taken no liquor during the day
unless the medicine prescribed by DIR.
Goldthwait for his temporary distressing
trouble contained it. w. A. Taylor,
Humans secretary, said he had been
with Mr.. Thurman the entire day and
that it was the most malicious piece of
business to insinuate that the Judge suf-
fered through over indulgence in stimu-
lants. His physician said this afternoon
that Thurman would be fully restored to
health this evening.
