tion that these things should have to
each other. So long as the vagabond,
hoodlum, immoral and vicious elements
of society are permitted to 60 about the
streets armed like brigands, and go long
as the slash of their murderous knives
and the crack Of their deadly pistols go
unwhipped of even.handed justice, just
so long will the murderous knife and
deadly pistol continue to be used. To
be sure, the victims illegal taking off is
too often the opposite of a loss to
society, but 30 would it be with
the legal taking off of the killer. Then
once in while the life CT valuable citi-
zen is sacrificed to the cowardly ven-
geance of this vicious gang. Let bat the
sword of fearless justice fame over the
heads of these ruffians and they will in a
moment become less subject to the
emotional insanity" of ungoverned
passion, and they will promptly take
thought for the keeping Of their skins
whole and their necks out of moose

dietary to deal severely with it's constitu-

Female Evangeiists.

Female Evangeifsts.
OTTAWA, February 11.-There was a
riot tonight in Hull City, just across the
river from here. 1t was an enlargement
of the riot of last week. Miss Bertha
Wright and her evsngelists announced
that they were going over there again
tonight. Hull was in state of excite.
ment all the afternoon, and about 7
o'clock elk or seven hundred boys as
sembled. The Chief of Police tried to
harangue the mob, but could not gst
hearing. Alderman Wright tried to make
speech, but the crowd attacked him
and beat him severely. The crowd soon
increased in numbers until it was over a
thousand strong. The men marched
along, shouting and singing. Towards
$3.50 the mob surged in the direction of
the little mission hall, where they hurled
stones at the building, smashing the
windows and demolishing the wooden
structure. Many persons were hurt.
The evangelists and their escort left the
building in body, and marched forward
resolutely. The mob, on psrceiving
them, increased their yeIls. Miss Wright
was injured by stone, but not seriously.
Ssveral others we're cut and bruised.
The matter will be brought up in Parlia-
ment tomorrow.

Major Gard, in all probability, fastened
his confirmation. II is not a popular
thing in America to seek to reach any

POSTAL TELEGkA APH.
MR.. Wamamaker Explains the DE,
tails of HIS scheme.

WASHINGTON, February 11.-Postmas
ter General Wanamaker, before the
House committee on postofiices and post
roads, today discussed fully the proposi-
ton in his annual report for the estab-
lishment OF q limited postal telegraph.
He eubmitted 81 plan providing for the
lease by the Government, for ten years,
of wires for carrying On the business and
for the delivery of kilograms by carriers
in the first delivery following the receipt
of the telegram. The scheme, he in.
sisted, was practical and free from objec
ton.
Wanamaker proposed union of the
post and the telegraph on basis that
would not interfere to any appreciahle
extent with any existing rights, bul
would afford an incalculable service te
classes not now enjoying the use of the
telegraph TO any large degree. He
wished to be directed to negotiate aud
secure set Of leased wires such as the
great newspapers have, from city to city
or as the brokers and bankers have, CON
Meeting their offices and different citiss
that the public might communicate
through their business Offices (post off
ces) from city to city, or by mes
sages dropped in their mail boxes
The people had now, he continued
business officers (clerks) who could soou
learn the tick of the machine, carriers
who travelled over the same streets trav.
erse0 by telegraph boys, and stamps fol
payment that dispense with book keep
log, and all that was needed to build uI
the service was authority and wire. He
declared most emphatically that such 6
service was the legitimate work of the
postoffice, and the people we're right il
stoutly demanding telegraph facilities a.
postal stations.
Mr.. Wanameker then stated the pro.
visions of his bill Nothing in the act
shall be 80 construed as to prohibit anv
telegraph company from performing
general business for the public as the
same is now done. Postal telegraph
charges in any one State shall not
exceed ten cents for messages of twenty
words or less, counting address and
signatures, nor over twenty. five cents
for any distance under 500 miles, nor
over fifty cents for any greater distance
rates and rules and regulations to be-
prescribed by the Postmaster General
The bill also provides for the establish.
ment of system of postal telegraph
money orders, at rate not to exceed
double the rate now charged, in addition
to the double postal telegraph charge.

New York, February 11.-An even
ing paper publishes dispatch from
Paris, which states that cipher letter
has just been received by Russian refu-
gee in that city, dated December 2sth,,
which gives the details of horrible
tragedy in the political pricon at Kara,
in Eastern Siberia. Madame Nadyda
Silida, of noble birth, a teacher in The
high school at Moscow, was found last
year with revolutionary papers in her
possession. She was sentenced to penal
servitude. On her arrival at Kara.
the handsome, refined woman soon
attracted the attention of the di.
rector OF the prison, who took
an early opportunity to insult her.
Madame Sihida boxed the ears of the
director, who in revenge had her stripped
and f1ogged in the presence of ali the
men in the prison. Through shame and
fear she suicided with poison the same
day. Several other female political
prisoners, fearful of similar treatment,
followed her example. A few miles from
the women's political prison at Kara. is
that occupied by male political convicts,
who on hearing of the tragedies, revolted
en- masse. Troops were called out and
awful scenes followed, shooting, fl 1ogging
and torturing going on by wholesale.
The Russian authorities suppressed the
facts.

WASHINGTON, February 1.-THE bill
introduced by Senator Edmunds today
to provide public school system for

minuteness provides about all the legisla.
