In his annual report state Secretary II.
o. Williams said; Nothing would be
more gratifying 10 the many who have
contributed OF their time, talent and
money to advance Y. NJ. Z. A. work tllan
to have reported at this time n large in
crease i'll the number of associations and
the erection of buildings for association
purposes. We have no startling
figures to give, but as We carefully
review the reports of our associations
rendered at this convention the decided
progress which has been madein every de-
partment must be evident to those most
familiar with the work. We have an nc.
count OF over 1000 miles covered and
about every association in our district
visited. This, with the assistance that has
been rendered i'll answer to the demands
made on lis by The local secretaries, has
helped 10 make busy year. IL is
impossible TO estimate The value, OF
conferences with secretaries, boards
OF directors, ladies' auXiliailGs aud the
committee meetings. Our office work has
not by any means been Il small matter i'll
connections with orr secrGtarial duties.
Tile remarkable changes in orr scGrctariul
forces are to be dcplOred to very large
extent. In closing | cannot help but
suggest that greater significance be
land upon the Importance Of well
organized district work. The chairman
and secretary ot each district should ell
dedyOr to arrange to give to each member
OF the district committee Il specific work
when should place On each one an in
dlSidual responsibility. In this manner
the districts Will be developed and COnsc-
quently the state organization will be
strengthened and our aim, the salvation OF
young men, will he definitely reaCAei,"

NO more original and picturesque idea
methods than that which the October Re
uieso of Reviews brings TO the fore in lis
pair OF articles on the Revival OF the HE.
torical Pilgrimage. Mr.. Lyman p. Powell
speaks of the American renaissance of
this movement, while Mr.. Stead is over
flowing in his enthusiasm for it as an En-
gllsh institution. In general the idea OF
an Historical Pilgrim is to gather in a
group others OF his kind and to make ex-
cursions over an appointed itinerary to
those places in his country where's great
historical events have happened. There
he studies the environments of those his
torical landmarks at first hand and is adj
dressed by some great man of the party
who is peculiarly fitted to treat the sub
ject. Mr.. Powell, after telling of the various
pilgrimages that other folks 10 other times
have made, gives most alluring pro-
gramme for 1894. He hopes 10 conduct
a group of students through New Eng
land and up the Hudson, stopping at the
specially interesting points. Such men ts

Fiske, Thomas Wentworth Higginson,

Watson Glider and Theodore Roosevelt

A large employer of labor in New York
State, who supported Mr. Cleveland last
Fall, is quoted by the Mail and Express
as saying that he is 'tglad we are to have
tariff reform and q reduction of wages !;
the American workingman has been earn
ing too much money, and it is about time
the were taught lesson by experience. y
This brutal remark seems to have been
suggested by the unwillingness of some
OF his employees to have their wages re-
duced. Probably the employer himself
thinks with ex-Secretary Whitney that
wageworkers are "the lower classes, aud
ought to be kept down aud not allowed
to get used to the comforts of life for fear
they will kick after having lived up 10 a
certain standard against having that
standard lowered.

The Democratic papers that urge that
the Democratic party should not be held
responsible for the race-track legislation,
because the party, as a party, had never
endorsed the action Of its representatives,
are referred to the action of the Mon
mouth county Democrats, who have just
nominated race-track ticket out and out,
beginning with the Senator Terhune, who
voted for the bill last winter.

The New York Sun has very elabor-
ate and careful compilation of the esii-
mate of the wheat crop for 1898, includ-
ing all the nations and also the requir-
ments of each, and in conclusion seems to
indorse the statement OF the United States
Department OF Agriculture, which says:-
1.-THE harvest of the United States will
give product below home needs, while
the worlds product in 1898 appears to be
below the worlds requirements by some
100, 900, 600 bushels. This is partially Off
set by an extraordinary reserve of some
thing near l00,000,0 600 bushels in the

RIZ REDD'S CLOSE GAIL.
The Rude Necktie Was Adjusted, But Hex
Cries for Mercy Saved Her.

BLUEFIELD. W. VA, Feb. Especial.
An aged negro woman, who is known as
"Riz Redd." and who has figured con-
spicuously in Cooperstown. squat OF
houses in the suburbs OF Bluefeld, was
lodged in the Jail here yesterday morn
ing. charged with selling moonshine
whisky. Late In the afternoon she was
released on bail. Early in the forepart
OF the night a mob OF thirty or forty men
went 10 her house. evidently with the In
tention OF lynching her. A rope was
fastened 10 her neck and she was dragged
some hundred yards from the city. where
preparations were made for the execution.
Strange 10 say. her heart-rending cries
for mercy moved the men, and she
was released on condition that II she re-
turned 10 Bluefeld an end would be put
10 her life. 1t was reported that she was
found dead this morning somewhere on
the railroad west OF here. 1t seems that
she sold liquor to the negro who killed
Policeman Charles here some time back,
and was thus indirectly the cause OF his
death.
