From that day to this progress has by de-
grees perpetuated faith made more firm

INTENSE EXCITEMENT IN RALEIGH, N.
CA PRIESTS OUTRAGEOUS CONDUCT
The citizens of Raleigh, N. c., have been
for the past several days in high state OF
excitement caused by the outrage last
Saturday evening of Miss Genetta Whita-
ker, aged II years, daughter of Wesley
| Whitaker, Elk Mayor of Raleigh, By Father
J. J. Boyle, the Priest in charge of the
Roman Catholic Church of the Sacred
Heart of Jesus. He has been drinking
heavily and acting strangely lately, and
was at one time insane. He is 30 years of
age.
His victim is a slender, delicate girl,
small for her age, and both she and her
father are Catholics. She was the organ
list of the Church. Boyle told her the
music for the organ for Sundays service
was in his room, and told her to 60 there
after it. She did so. Boyle followed and
locked the door. The poor girl screamed
and Boyle was quiet for little space of
time. Then he renewed his assault, and
when the girl again cried out placed re-
volver at her head and on pain of death
ordered her to keep quiet. His treatment
of the girl was horrible in its brutality
How she was ever able to get to her home,
half a mile away, is a marvel. On arrival
there she told her family Of the assault
Mr.. Whitaker hurried to the mayors Of
Ace and applied for warrant charging
Boyle with assault. He returned home and
found his daughter in such condition that
physician was instantly summoned. The
people could scarcely restrain themselves
from lynching him at once. He is in
prison and will be tried at a special term of
| the Criminal Court Of Wake county.

Still less could it affect outsiders The only
reasonable hypothesis upon which the YER
dict of jury and its ratification by the people
OF Charleston can be explained is that Nc
Dow's story that Dawson struck him was
believed, and that for such an insult to
Southern gentleman QOr Mellow is said to
have moved in good society Southern society
regards shooting on the spot as none too
severe, and practically justifes the man who
takes such summary vengeance. That there
is sentiment prevailing all over the South
which winks at murder hen it is committed
in redress ofsome real or fancied wrong has
been demonstrated over and over again, and
the effect of the Mellow verdict is only to
add one more demonstration. The cases are
numerous where a feud between Southern
families has been pursued until the warning
families have been entirely extinguished by
the shot gun or the bowie knife without the
least interference or effort on the part of the
authorities to put stop to the assassina-
tions. The spirit which has permitted these
vendettas and even approved of them, is the
same which now applauds the acquittal of
McD0w. To shoot the man who has insulted
you in cold blood Is looked upon by very
large per cent. of Southern society as chiv-
alrous act, aud the man who neglects to take
summary vengeance is branded as coward
The fact is many communities of the South
have barely emerged from barbarism, and
Charleston seems to be one of them

Southern Sentiment.

A correspondent of the Boston Advertiser
writing from Charleston, 5. e., says the ver-
dict in the Dawson case was generally antici-
pated and generally approved Charleston
society. This makes the mater worse. As
long as the verdict was the verdict of only
the twelve men who sat on tue jury. il did
not necessarily reflect unfayorably on the
moral sentiment of Charleston society. II
was susceptible Of explanation on the ground
perhaps that the jury had been tempered
with, or that skillful lawyers had deluded men
of rather limited intelligence "a 10 the facts

Chicago, as the result of an election held
the other day, will annex the supurbs OF ad-
joining towns Of Hyde Park. Lake, Lake
View, Cicero and Jefferson, thereby increas-
ing the population by 100000 to over I,OOo,-
600. This will make Chicago the second city
probably, in the nation. But still Chicago is
said to be not wholly happy for there is a
little city called Duluth, up on the western
shore of Lake Superior. which is supposed
to be 10 the way of getting certain freight
rates for its produce that will make 1t a dis

now handled by Chicago. Then there is the

from Minneapolis TO Boston or Portland
and the Minneapolis people now and then
throw into the face of their neighbors of the
Queen City of the West, the prophecy that
Chicago and New York are not to be the
great hitching posts of the West and East
forever, and that Minneapolis and New Eng

the traffic between the East and the West.
But despite these little worries Chicago con-
tinues to grow feshy. and may laugh at the
leanness of her detractors for some time to

by the license law which has worried SO
admirably in Pennsy lyahia, and so decreas-
ed the number of saloons, the number OF
liquor dealers receiving licenses has been
limited by license court that examine,
each case and applies very stringent condi-
tions. The people of the Stat were much
pleased with the operation of the law, as the
number If liquor sellers VIII, could get
licenses was greatly reducrd But the ,lecis-
ion of the Supreme Court of the State that
the license courts have no power to refuse
licenses to brewers, wholesale quor dealers
and botters, if they are of good moral char
acter and temperate, and are American citi
zens, is expected to undo great part If the
good work OF restriction already done. This
decisi'n n, soming so soon after the defeat CT
the constitutional amendment, has pleased
the liquor men greatly, and is reported to
have discouraged the prohibtionists cores
pondingly. At this distance there
seems to be reason neither for the
JOY Of the liquor men nor the
sorrow of the prohibitionists. In the
condition of public sentiment at the present
time in most of the States of the American
Union, the greater the abuse the more likeli-
hood is there that radical means will be TAX
en- TO abolish it. One of the reasons of the
large vote in Pennsylvania against the con-
stitutio- al amendment, was, without doubt,
the feeling Of large portion of the people
that they already had license law that was
effecting great reform. There was dispo.
sition to let well enough alone, against
which the prohibtionists had hard work to
make Roadway. But when the license law
becomes a failure, either from It's own weak
ness or the blow of court, then there Is an
argument Cor prohibition that can be used
with effect This decision, instead of hurt
Ing, ought to rehabilitate the cause of the
prohibitionists in the eyes of the people of
Pennsylvania.

WORSE THAN THE ANARCHISTS.
1Snrinpfiald Rannhlican

The Cronin case is much more compli-
cated one in every way than the anarchist
conspiracy. In the latter instance the death
of so many policemen and the almost insane
methods of the criminals set society against
them. The whole community united in
detective work, and the culprits were soon
hunted down. But this Clan-na- Gael
murder was conspiracy within a conspiracy,
which turned thousands of men who could
not have known anything about its details
into agents and spies against the authorities.
The guilty men had a fortnight in which to
escape; the police force and detective con-
tignent were filled with Irish secret society
men the law courts and government offices
swarmed with Clan-na-Gael runners, and
the officers of the law who were honestly in
vestigating the crime were hampered at
every step. Their further progress in laying
bare this conspiracy will be followed by the
public with absorbing interest and sympathy

MIR. Theodore Roosevelt. of the civil sell
vice commission, has been making some in
teresting talk concerning the work and ex-
periences OF the commission. Mr. Roosevelt
says it is curious to see the way in which
people Try TO evade the law Thus one ap.
plicant, who evidently has not got it out Of
his head that politics count with the commits
sion, stated in his examination papers that
he began preparation as soon as Gen. narri-
son was elected and after consultation with
his congressman. This was practically an
expression Of political preference, which
the law forbids, and consequently the com
mission promptly threw him out. Concern
Ing the character of the examination Mr..
Roosevelt says:
Our examinations are practical. Ii must be re-
nnembered, however, that we examine for n great
many different subjects For example we have
Just examined number OF scientists in good
standing for the position OF assistant astronomer
