Strolling down East Seventh street tho
other day the attention OF the writer was
attracted to picture which had been
placed in the show window Of one Of the
leading clothing stores on that thorough
fare. It was large sized photograph Of
the White House in Washington. At
tached to the picture was a card on which
was inscribed the words: Where every
st. Paul boy expects to live some day."
A Well known business man OF this city
stopped before the picture, and was View

him stood young boy, rawgedly dressed,
a veIitable street Arab. The youngster
scrutinized the picture c'osely, and then

MONDAY EVENING. DfCEMstR S. 1897.


Webster's Dictionary, title Lynch
Law" says: "The practice OF Furnishing
men for crimes or offenses by private, un-
authorized persons, without legal trial.
The term Is said to be derived from q
Virginia farmer, Lynch, who thus took
the law into his own hands, These are
the main facts in regard to the origin OF
this celebrated claw which, as matter
OF fact, Is not claw 2 at all.
In Campbell county, Va, some OF the
rankest and most obnoxious Tories were
taken care Of by law, but. there were
many others not reachable by the statu-
tory enactment. This being the case,
Col. Charles Lynch, Col. Robert Ander-
son, his brother in law, and one Gallo
way, Q neighbor, determined to rid their
part Of the country of its enemies. They
accordingly seIxed the leaders OF the sew
eral Tory factions and logged them SO
severely that they were only too glad OF
the chance offered them to leave, and
leave for good"
This summary treatment having proved
30 efIectuai In Campbell county, it was
soon tried in other counties where King
George had the strongest following.
Such procedures soon became known rs
trials by Judge Lynch, - and the I" JUS
tice " obtained in such courts as Lynch
law" A very popular song OF that day
had this for chorus:
Hurrah for Captain Bob. Colonel Lynch and
Galloway;
Never let Tory rest till he cries out liberty.
John Lynch, brother OF Charles, was
the founder of Lynchburg, Va, The last
male descendants of Lynch of Lynch law,
Charles Henry Lynch and his brother
John Pleasant Lynch, have both died in
Campbell county since the close of the
War OF the Rebellion.-St. Louis Re-

A new local anasthetic has been in oc-
casional use in surgery for the past year.
Previous to that time it was chiefly used
by dentists. The name OF the an@sthetic
is chloride OF ethyl, which has a peculiar
odor, not at all offensive; on the contrary,
pleasant and sweet taste. II will take
the place largely of chloroform and ether,
which require considera Bile time to have
effect on patient. Moreover, it is much
safer. 1t can be used, for example, in the
cutting of an abscess or any other such
slight operation. It is simply matter
OF spraying the affected portion of the
body, and is great blessing both to the
world and the medical profession. Its
chief component is alcohol.

The TERRIBLE SEA



storm Tossed Maine.
They were seated upon the rocky cliffs
overlooking q bit Of dangerous shore,
where ship had foundsred the night
before.
The restless waves beat upon the irreg-
ular sea wall and sent great hecks Of
foam high into the air.
Slowly going to pieces upon the cruel
rocks, the good ship tossed In her agony
as delirious patient losses on his bed OF
pain.
Ever and anon the green waves dashed
over her and drove her hrrner into the
giant grasp that was crushing the life out
OF her.
The crew had been safely brought to
land and the ship was left TO the bolster
Gus caresses OF the heartless ocean.
As the young man gazed upon the
terrific scene OF wind and wave and help
less ship an awestruck silence sealed his
lips.
After few moments thus he turned to
the beautiful girl beside him.
A family perceptible smile shone In
and out amidst the pink and white Of her
lovely face.
He saw in 1t the sunshine that lives
eternal in the faces Of the angels.
She put out her soft, white hand and
touched his arm.
He laid his hand tenderly upon hers.
"What Is it, darling3n he said, In re-
Spouse to her questioning eyes.
"Aigernon," she asked, as the breaking
waves dashed high, "does the sea wear
pantsf"
Algernon shuddered and would have
fallen, but his will was strong and he
stood fast.
"Why do you ask thatfn he said, with
no answering smile to hers.
Because, dear" she answered timidly,
"because thought it must. it makes SO

Then Algernon fell to the earth with a
dull thud.-Detroit Free Press.

mittee before the election protested
vehemently that there was not sufficient
time to examine the RECORD and ascer-
tain whether the facts stated in the
committees report were true, and that
the report was Intentionally sent out
too late to prevent investigation and
contradiction. Any man a make a
thorough examination Of the entire
record within three hours time. The
claim advanced by Judge Benton's
friends that the judge was up to the
average judges in the state was all the
time known to them and to him to be
false, and if he is elected, it is by a DELHI
crate and willful misrepresentation Of
his record to the people. If he succeeds

The TRIBUNE has a contract with the

carefully selected and the things written
about are usually of much interest. DC
casionally, however. the gentlemen Sc.

Ease in point there is appended a letter

excerpts to a statement that the globe
will be unable to sustain any more in
habitants after the year 2O12. Until at
tention was called to it the matter had
escaped attention in the TRIBUNE Of
flee. The furry of political excitement
and the confusion naturally incident to
the capital contest is the only apology
the management can uffer for its failure
to have given this subject serious con
sideration. 1t will be an important hap

wants to 60 on record as making the as
