Alta TIGHT-ROPEW WALKING.
Three Men Dead as the Result Of a
Race Row in a Village.

A riot occurred at Micanopy, Fla, be-
tween the whites and the colored people, in
which w. jefferson Chitty, we'll known
citizen, and a colored man named John
Jones were killed. The mob that evening
lynched Henry Hinson the colorad man who
murdered Chitty. The riot took place about
10 o'clock in the evening. A tight-rope
walker was giving exhibition in the
public square, and nearly the whole viii
lage had turned out to see the exhibition.
The whites were on one side and the
colored people on the other. Hinson walked
over from the colored side of the crowd to
the other. Chitty stepped up to HIM and
requested him to go back among his own
people, This angered the colOred man and
ten minutes later he returned and walking
UP to Gritty aimed a revolver at him and
shot him twice through the heart. Gritty
died in twenty minutes.
Within the next five minutes twenty shots
were fired, and in the semi-darkness the
murderer escaped. When the smoke cleared
away John Jones, a chum Of the murderer,
was found dead in the street several
blocks away. Marshal Purdy mus
tered a posse Of armed men ana
started in pursuit OF Hinson. They
secured the country and finally found him IN
a house five miles from town. He was
brought back to town just after midnight:
He acknowledged his guilt and the Marshal
put him in Jail with a strong guard about IL;
At 2 o'clock in the morning mob appeared
at the Jail and dragged the murderer out and
hanged him in the square.

THE CEREAL CROP,
The Largest Total for Wheat Ever
Grown in Any Country.

The estimates, by States and Territories.
of area, product and value of the principal
cereals of the United States for 1891, made
by the statistician of the Department. OF Az.
riculture, have just been made public at
Washington. The crops of corn, wheat
and oats, including all but two
or three per cent. OF the cereal
aggregate, reported. The total for corn
has only been exceeded once The wheat
product is the largest ever grown In any
country, and the yield per acre n the United
States is the largest ever reported by the
Department of Agriculture. The total for
oats was slightly exceeded IN 1889.
The aggregates are as follows: Corn

AS there was nothing to steal in the
house of the peasant but his ass and the
daughter, the exchanged determined to
take both; ne coveted the beast and was
in love with the daughter, fair blonde
beauty of sixteen. One night he sad
died the ass, put on his armor and pair
of spurs to aid his flight, and attempted
to carry off the girl in her sleep. She
awoke, and her cries soon brought her
father and brother; the robber tried to
escape, but he was too late. When the
young girl told of his infamous attempt
they knew he had not repented, and
were sorry they had saved such a mis-
cradle scoundrel, so they determined to
execute justice upon him, but far better
than the Lord of Piroche had done.
They bound him to the ass he had
saddled, carried him back to the gibbet
he had escaped from and there hanged
him until he was dead, taking good care
to leave off his helmet this time, placing
it at the foot of the gibbet. Then they
quietly returned home.
This is the third version. I don't
know why, but imagine it is the most
reasonable and that you, like myself,
will give it the preference over the other
two.
AS to my Lord of Piroche, having
such an excellent tailsman of safety he
joyously departed to the next war and
was the first one killed.-From the

THE KHEDIVE GONE,
Egypt's Ruler, MOhammed Tewlk

pacha, a Victim to Grip"
Tewt1k Pacha, the Khedive of Egypt, who
had been i'll with influenza for some time.
died a few days ago at Cairo, Egypt The
attack developed into congestion of tbs
lungs. with cardiac affections
Tewfk was the sixth ruler of the DYNASTY
OF Mohammed Ali Pacha, founded in 1905
Mohammed Ali in 1871 induced the Sultan
to make the viceroyaity hereditary in his.
family. Later he rebelled against the Sui
tan, and became sole master of Egypt:
He was succeeded in 184S by his son, Ibrahim
Pacha. who lived but two years, and was
succeeded by his nephew, Abbas Pacha
In 1854 the Sultan, who had reasserted his
suzerainty over Egypt had Abbas stran-,
gled on a change of treason. Said
Pacha, third son of Mohammed All, sue
ceeded to the viceroyaltY, but died in 1863
and was succeeded by Ismail Pacha, second
son of Ibrahim.
Upon him the Sultan conferred the title
of khedive. The descent was then fixed in
accordance with the law of primogeniture,
and accordingly when Ismail, in debt and at
odds with the Sultan, was deposed, his eld-
est son, Tewfik, succeeded,
The British occupation dates from the re-
volt OF Arab Pacha, an Egyptian officer, in
1888. Tewfik has since then been under
British influence, much to the dissatisfaction
Of the French who have insisted upon
British evacuation and British troops have
aided in repeliing the attacks of the rebel
lious Mahdists upon Egyptian possessions
Mohammed Tewfik Pacha was just past
thlrty-nine years of age. He succeeded his
deposed father, Isrnail Pacha, in 1879 The
heir apparent is Tewfiks son Abbas Bey
who was born in 1874. Egypt is to some
extent subject to Turkey.

but nc helmet; that is lying at the foot
of the gibbet."
'sCome quick, NJ. Chaplain, let US go
and see."
The Lord of Piroche ran to the place,
filled with a curious, wondering crowd.
Sure enough, there was the hanged, his
neck securely fastened in the running
moose, his body dangling from the end of
the rope, dressed in the FURNISHED armor.
1t was prodigious, wonderful. All cried,
GA miracle"
The Lord of Piroche did not mean to
be cheated of his armor this time, so he
ordered the body to be taken down,
stripped and the armor carried into the
chateau. This done, they rehanged the
dead body, and the crows admired it so
much that in two days 1t was pecked
and mangled in slashes, in eight days it
was in rags and tatters, in fifteen days
there was nothing left but the clean
picked bones.
Now where had the hanged been in
his month of absence? What had he been
doing? Why had he escaped, and then
returned to be re-hanged! [ will give
you the reason as it was told to me.
Our two peasants on their return home
that evening passed by the gibbet and
heard groans, prayers and entreaties.
They asked: "Who is there2" No one
answered, but the prayers and groans
continued and seemed to come from the
dead body hanging above their heads.
Then the son took the ladder left by the
executioner and climbed up to the height
of the criminal and said, :'Is that you
groaning, my poor nan?" Eyes"
care you alive?" eyes" Do you re-
pent of your crime2" 'Oh, yes"
"Then we are going to take you down.
The evangelist commands us to help all
who suffer; you are suffering, therefore
we are going TO help you live and repent.
For God loves repentant soul better
than a suffering body"
They took him down and discovered
how he had escaped death. The rope in
stead of clasping his neck had caught on
the rim of the helmet and held him sus-
pended without strangling him, and thus
he had Teen able to breathe until these
peasants rescued him. They carried him
home with them on one of the asses and
handed him over to the care of the wife
and daughter.
He soon recovered; but he who has
stolen once will steal again.

THE SwEETE3T SONG.

With trembling fingers take the harp,
And touch the strings with gentle care,
For stern reproof is quick and sharp,
To one who fingers there;
Remembering all the masters old,
Intense with thought DER them have hung,
And of the words that yet are told,
The sweetest songs are still unsung,
The ocean has a secret wave
That breaks unseen and softly dies.
Where mermaids in the fountains lave,
And seaweeds fall and rise;
So flows the current of the heart
Where pleasing shapes are ever young,
And this the truth will neer depart
The sweetest songs are still unsung.
