How Not to Drink.

The only beverage drink is champagne.
j have experienced considerable trouble i'm
getting my friends to understand why |
now confine myself to this expensive drink,
but my leading supporters now understand
1t and fully approve of it. The reason is
plain and simple. Perhaps no less than 500
men call on me day. At least one-ffth Of
the number insist OH me dropping my work
to 20 out and drink with them. To refuse
many OF them point-bfank would be giving
them an actual insult and turn them from

The lynching of negroes at the South
continues. On Monday negroes were
lynched in South Carolina and Georgia.
The increase of this kind of lawlessness is
beginning TO alarm the best men of the
South. Governor Northen. Of Georgia.
has issued a proclamation calling the at.
tention of the people 10 the frequency of
mob violence in that state. and declaring
his purpose to pat stop TO it if he has TO
exert ali the power the law has conferred
upon him. He asserts that "lynching is
brutal, cruel and barbarous," that the
"killing of citizen by mob is deliberate
murder, and the perpetrators OF the crime
should suffer at the hands Of the courts
the proper penalty" The proclamation
includes an offer of reward for the arrest
and conviction of the men who lynched
three negroes in Habersham county re-
Gently. and warns citizens that they are

Many political pilgrims have visited Albany
during the past eighteen months. They were TO
be met in the state departments, In the newsna-
per offices, and In the hotels Their visiting
cards and official note paper bore witness to
their home standings as members of Demo-

greatness of Hill. The returns are coming in
daily through the press dispatches as to the dis
posal at home of these prophets. No one OF them
is better known here than George Hazard of
the far-of state of Washington. He was here
several times. He wanted to know every
one in this state and the city of
Washington. He asked for letters Of
introduction 10 Grover Cleveland, who, he said
had refused him an Office. He knew Just what
the Northwest Democracy would do in this no.
litieal year. He proiessed to be one of the
spokesmen as to Democratic sentiment at the
next national convention. A few DAYS ago tina
press dis patches said that Hazard was defeated
al his home in Tacoma as a delegate to the DEM
ocratic state convention Of Washington. Yes
terdsy's dispatches said that Hazard was re-
fused an election as delegate 10 Chicago These
facts have not surprised Hazard, for he rushed
10 the telegraph Office and sent a message In
Senator Hill that the Washington delegation
would not act with the Democratic delegates
from Michigan, Wisconsin and Iowa, al az

PREPARING TO HANG BROOKS.
Negro Monster Getting His Soul Ready
The Rope and ScaEoid.
Spokane Review, May %.

Charles Brooks, the condemned murderer,
seems to be quietly awaiting his fate, and from
his action 1t would seem that he either does not
realizs the seriousness of his position or does
not care whether he is hung or not. The news
that the supreme court had refused to grant him
a new trial has made no change in his manner
OF life at the Jail unless 1t be to make him lit
tie less jovial at times. for he has been noticed
several times since the action OF the supreme
court was announced sitting by himself in
corner OF his cell apparently in deep thought
He has become devoutly religious. and has
been heard to rebuke the other prisoners at the
jail when they INDUCED in the least profanity.
That he is of the opinion that he did right in
taking the life of his white wife is evident from
his statement that under the same c.rcum-
stances he would repeat his crime. Brooks says
he will never forgive those who he thinks
tried to lead his wife sstray. He seems to think
that If he is hanged for his crime he will pose az
martyr.
The rope viii CHI will be used at the execution
is lying in drawer of desk in the sheriff's
office. The moose 10 already tied in the regula-
ton syle and is of the kind known as an eight
lap moose, the knot being composed OF eight
turns of the rope. This kind OF a moose is
similar to that used in all Eastern states. The
rope is half an inch in diameter and Is made OF
the best quality of hemp The sheriff hiss
enough OF the rope On hand to hang several
men.
Inc scaHoiu Will be erected near the jail door,
and on the day OF execution the condemned man
will b. conducted from the Jail to the scatfold
steps without having to step down into the jail
yard The scafod will be similar to those used
at most hangIngs. aud the drop will be of the
''drop-gate' pattern, working exactly like the
iron gratings in front of most business houses,
though, OF course, it will open in an opposite
direction. To spring the drop all that will be
necessary is to cut string which supports
weight attached to the bolt which will hold the
trap-door in place. the dropping of this weight
draws the bolt and the drop falls OF its own
weight The county officers have not received
official notification of the action of the supreme
court, and until the offic al order is received
action will be taken in the case, though it is
probable that Judge Blake will resentence
Brooks as soon as he receives the instructions OF
the higher court

Payne is an eminent and careful man,
and in position to obtain accurate in
formation. The New York Sun thinks
that DR.. Payne is guilty of no overstate-
ment. According to its own record
mulatto was hanged in the streets of the

on the same day at Alexandria. Ala,
negro was frightfulIy whipped
by mob; on the 18th ult.
a mob took three negroes from the Jail at
GAINESVILLE, Ga, where they had been
locked up for trying to rob bank, and
hanged them to an oak tree. The three
negroes, shrieking for mercy, were put on
horseback with ropes around their necks
and over the limb. The horses were
whipped, and jumped away, leaving the
negroes hanging. As the bodies hung the
mob amused itself by firing shots into
them. The bodies were not cut down all
day. On May Is, at Chestertown, Md,
negro named Jim Taylor, locked up there
for assaulting the 11-year-old daughter of
farmer, was taken from the Jail by mob
OF about 100 persons and hanged to tree
in front of the Jail. On May 10, at Man.
chester, Tenn, thirty men hanged Charles
Everett. a negro. from bridge. He was
charged with entering room where two
girls were sleeping. After the hanging
the mob shot the body full OF holes.
The rapid increase in lynchings in the
South is shown by the following table COM
piled by the Chicago Tribune.

INDIANS AFRAID OF SMALLPOX.
kuyoquOts on the Way to the Fraser
River Cannerfes Turn Back.
Port Townsend Leader, June

TOII IOWuSeuu Leduer, June L.
party Of Kuyoquot Indians, numbering fifty
men, women and children. belonging to the
west coast OF Vancouver island, north of Nootka,
have been camped on the beach at Port Hudson
since Friday last Some of them have been at
work up Sound. They are all bound to the
Fraser river canneries. On their arrival here
they learned of the smallpox at Vancouver and
New Westminster, and fearing to run the risk OF
contagion, at the same time wishing to work at
the canneries, they requested Judge swan to
write to Colonel Vowel, Indian commissioner,
Victoria, for advice. A letter was accordingly
sent on Saturday last Yesterday morning a re-
ply was received from NJ. II. Moffatt, chief clerk
OF the Indian office, the Indian superintendent
being absent, in which he says: "There
are several cases of smallpox at Vancouver and
New Westminster, and one case was discovered
in this city (Victoris) today. Under these cir.
cumstances would strongly recommend that
the kuyoQuot Indians at Port Townsend be adj
vised not to proceed to those places until all fear
of infection is passed, as should any of them
catch the disease there is no knowing where it
would stop. Would you. therefore, kindly
notify them to this effect?" Judge swan i'm
mediately went to the Indian camp, aud all
gathered around him. He then interpreted Mr..
Motfatts letter to them, and advised the whole
party to do as Mr.. Moffatt writes and keep away
from the canueries until it is officially reported
that all danger has passed. The Indians prom
ised that they would.
Should any of them, however, recklessy go
among the contsgion and take the disease and
carry it to their homes it would spread like
wildire among the Coast tribes, Us the smallpox
seems to have an affinity for Indians and il fear
fully fatal among them.
A number OF Clallam Indians residing here
and at Scow bay were present aud listened to
Judge Swans remarks When he had finished,
Queen Victoria. the Duke of York's widow,
made an energetic speech. in which she urged
the kuyoquots to go home at once and not go
among the smallpox. "You King George In
dians mustn't come here and bring sick. Klose
konoway mesika clattewa." The queen did
not want them to stand upon the order OF their
going, but go at once. Some of the canoes
started for home; others fingered for the pur-
pose OF iudulging in an indefinite number OF
buckets of beer to drown their disappointment
and brace them up for good start for their dis
tant wigwams on the coast. Judge Swan de-
serves credit for his humane interest In the In
dams and protecting them from the scourge
that portended their departure to the British

rigadier-General d. S. Stanley, who
was placed on the retired list of the regu-
lar army on Wednesday last, is a soldier
of brilliant war record. He was graduated
from West Point in 1852. in the same class
with Generals Socum, Hascall, McCook,
Kautz. Crook, Hartsuff and Charles r.
Woods. At the outbreak of the civil war
Stanley was captain in the Fourth reg
ular cavalry: he was appointed brigadier
general Of volunteers in September,
1861, and promoted to be full major
general of volunteers November %, 1862:
and was brevetted major-general in the
regular army for distinguished services at
the West under Generals Rosecrans, Grant.
Sherman and Schotield. General Stanley
greatly distinguished himself at the battle
of Franklin. November 80, 1864, where he
commanded the Fourth corns of the army
of the Cumberland and was severely
wounded while restoring our front line
broken by Hoods assault. Like his class
mate, General Crook, General Stanley
handled both infantry and cavalry with
equal skill.

The Washington Single Boom.

Northwestern Lumbermaa, May ..
The growth of the Pacific coast cedar shingle
trade in the Mississ ppi valley has been simply
phenomenal A year ago the wholesale dealers
were inclined to elevate their noses when Coast
shingles were mentioned. Now they are COM
planning that they cannot get them forward fast
enough to meet the demand. representative
Of the Lumbsrmrn was informed at a wholesale
yard on Twenty second street, this city, fChi-
cagol this week that Coast shingles
were getting actually scarce, while in
Quiry for them was constant The
managers of the yard had given a stand
ing order for two car loads q week, but
the shingles did not arrive promptly,
while the customers were clamoring for
them. Considering the youth OF the Coast
shlngle trade at this point, the incident noted
has a pronounced Significance. Dealers are also
expecting that the time is near when they will
have to handle Coast cedar siding, since inquiry
begins to be heard, and it is known that such
product is being pushed into all the Northwest
ern states.

passionate loyalty to any particular man
or set of men rather than for q principle of
public veal. Men of sense today. who saw
the civil war, can calmly talk about it as
most momentous and far reaching event
in our history, just as the Puritan soldier
Monk after the restoration could talk
about Cromwell, Marston Moor and Nase-
by to Prince Rupert. 1t ought to be an era
of increasing good feeling. Even the old
time copperhead confesses occasionally to
kindlier sentiment than he uttered when
the war was raging and he tried to wipe out
the Union by praying that Lee might wipe
out our armies, but he doesn't feel so now,
for he is glad today that he is not "a man
without country" no matter what he
thought and felt on the subject when
brave men were dying daily to perpetuate
a country that he thought wasn't worth
burning grain of powder to preserve; he
has 'got religion" at last, like many good
but erring men on this question, and be-
gins at last to believe that patriotism be-
fore man is piety before God.
Governor Gordon, of Georgia, very
brilliant Confederate soldier, spoke sem
sible word against that "blue and the gray

fact that he did not subscribe to the policy

mental flags Of the regular army the
names Of the battles Of the civil war, be
