PETER DOWN ON LYNCH1Nas.

The Alliance Senator Thinks They Are
Becoming Two Frequent.
WASHINGTON, June 15.-In the Senate
this morning. in presenting petition from
Riley county, Kansas, in relation to the
prevalence of lynch law, Mr.. PETER stated
that from newspaper reports the practice
was growing in all parts OF the country
north, south, east and west. Many poor
people-particularly colored people-were
being bounded and hunted and hanged or
shot to death when merely suspected OF
crime. 1t was time, he thought, for the
American congress to take action in that
matter, and he hoped that the judiciary
committee, to which the petition was re-
ferred, would report promptly.
A conference was ordered on the diplo-
matte and consular appropriation bill. and
Messrs. Hale, Allison and Blackburn were
appointed conferees on the part of the Sem
ate. Mr.. Morrill, gave notice that he would
address the Senate on the subject of silver
tomorrow, before all the other side of
the chamber shall have left for Chicago"

HERBERT-GAMMELL.
Fashionable Wedding to Occur Mt New
port Next Wednesday.

Fashionable Wedding to Occur mt New
port Next Wednesday.
NEWPORT, Dec. 12-The arrangements
are all completed for the marriage of Miss
Helen Louise Gammett TO Arthur Her
bert of the British diplomatic service on
Wednesday. No less than 500 presents
were received up to last night.
The bride will be given away by her
brother, Robert Ives Gammell of Provi-
dence. The bridesmaids will be Miss
Gammell, sister of the bride; Miss Sallie
Smith. Miss Virginia Gammell, niece OF
the bride. and Miss Florence Herbert of
England, niece of the groom. The
ushers will be John Nichols Brown, the
young millionaire Of Providence, Arthur
Peel Of the British Legation, ID. Berke
ley Updike of Boston. and Charles Heiser
and Lauriston- Hazard of Providence.
The duties OF best man will be performed
by Capt. +. Is. Herbert, of the Seven
teenth Lancers, crack English regi-
ment.
A special train will leave Providence
for Newport OH Wednesday at 1915, to
convey the guests TO the wedding. The
train will arrive at 1885. allowing Just
twenty-five minutes TO drive to st. Mary's
Church, where the ceremony will be per-
formed at noon. Mrs. Gammeli will be
"at home" at her residence upon the
"Cliffs" at 12:30 O'Clock. The returning
train will leave Newport at $3.50 O'Clock.
The wedding will be n very quiet affair
by Mrs Gammell's wish.
A special dispensaton had to be OBJ
tained to nave the ceremony occur in st.
Mary's OH W seaesday, as the Catholic
Church does not permit the solemniza-
ton Of marriages during the season of
Advent. This fact, together with Mr..
Herbert's recent indisposItiou, has
caused preparations for the event to be
very quiet and on very modest scale
Had tnv ceremony occurred as first ar
ranged in November, the wedding would
pa of much more elaborate nature.
In all respects, Notwithstanding Mr..
Herbert's faith, the match is very
pleasing one to Mrs. Gammell. Mr.. Her
bert has been known to the family for
the past three years, and the fact that
his name is the same and that his
maunerisms resemble those of her much
mourned son, makes his advent into the
Gammell family "a very pleasing and ac-
ceptable one. Since the death of the late
Prof. Gammell and Mr. Arthur, the town
house of-the Gamfneiis- has remained
closed the greater part of the year on ac-
count of its sad associations, and the
family has gone to Newport very ear y
and remained very late in the season.
The affair Is love match, pure and
simple and Mrs. Gammel's own wedding
was. She herself married for love, anu
wishes her daughters to do the same.

TEMPERANCE MEETING.
Grand Chief Templar Walter Is. Fros
and Others Make Speeches.

Grand Chief Templar Walter Is. Frost
and Others Make speeches.
A temperance meeting was held last
evening at the Academy Avenue Congre-
gstional Church.
John Belcher was the first speaker. He
said: "rhe saloon is the enemy of man
kind. We must fight the saloon and put
IL down. There are few who say that
hey need the saloon. We have place
for them. 1t is out in Cranston. / should
like TO see everyone in this communi y
enlisted to fight the saloon. You are all
in iavor of temperance but i want
you to take an active part in this war
fare against the saloon"
Walter h. Frost. grand chief templra
OF the Order OF Good Templars, was the
next speaker. lie said that what he was
about TO say was not strictly "a temper
ance address. The day had gone by when
IL was iecessary 10 demonstrate that in-
temperance was wrong
The Good Templar order isal ways on
guard and aggressive in the warfare for
temperance" he continued. 1T was not
until recent times that the people came
To believe that total abstinence was best
for success In liie." The progress Of the
temperance movement was traced. "The
popularization of the German beverage,
lager beer, has operated against the cause
for temperance" he said. The use OF
beer degrades man more than the use OF
distilled liquors. The temperance ques-
tion should be approached in the same
spirit AS any otner business question.
Statistics tell us that there are annually
80 600 premature deaths because OF
the use of intoxicants. James w.
Alexander, the prominent life in
surance man, says that next TO
deaths from puiminary diseases come
deaths from the use OF alcoholics. The
L. lAxr. A
no one to work for him who drinks. lie
knows that his interests are not safe with
the drinking man. There Is the econo-
mic side of this question. Drinking Is "A
costly habit. Total abstainance is the
corner stone OF charac er.
+. Il. Lakey considered the prohibition
phase OF the question. He said: "A
II is intemperance. The money that is
spent in rum shops would make prosper
ity universal. Each year 81, 100, 100000 is
spent for drink and the outlay is iucreas-
ing $50, 900, 900 annually. The source OF
three-quarters OF our crime, pauperism
and vice would be taken away by prohi-
bition. Can any honest. sane man object
TO "a prohibitory lawY The drunSard
cannot do his duty to the State Prohi-
bitlon deals with the traffic OF liquors,
not with the drinking. Testimony snow 4
that honest prohibition prohibits"
j. Il. White was the last speaker. He
referred to the relation between the
church and the temperance question as
follows: "Fhe time was when the
church never lifted it's hand against in
temperance. In fact many time all
TEMPERANCE legislation was opposed.
During the past hundred years the
church has taken up the subject and az
gressively fought against intemperance.
This question mas been one of education.
We read in the Scriptures that no drunk
ard can enter the kingdom of heaven. So
the church ough to be in the front rank
in this fight"
