Laziness and Divorce.

Out in Kansas City Judge has won
something of notoriety for himself and
for the Davis family by granting Mr..
Davis divorce from Mrs. Davis on the
ground that she was lazy. Judge Moore
iu handing down his decision, said that
the woman who did not toll was not to
be maintained at the expense of her hus-
band. This is horrible precedent, and
it has the disadvantage of being two
edged sword. There are good many
men whose futures will be doubtful If
lily-like idleness on one part is to be
made ground for no maintenance on the
other.
Ifthe views of that Daniel come tojudg-
menti the west shou,' come to prevail
in the east, the results would be terribleto
contemplate. John, when he found dinner
DELAYED would threaten Mary with dl-
vorce. When his buttons were not new
ly sewed and his socks not neatly darn
ed the word "lazy," thundered in tones
of marital anger, would have terrors
hitherto undreamed of. But, on the
other hand, the gentleman who was sup
ported in luxurious leisure by the
dress-making or bonnet-making wife
might be reused into at least sem blance
OF activity, and the man who had mar
ried fortune might feel little personal
anxiety as to his future. Perhaps
it wouldn't be such bad idea to re-
gard matrimony as sort of labor con-
tract, with wages to cease when work
stopped.

In Contempt of Court:

COLUMBIA, September 2.-Gnvernor
Tillman in talking about the arrest OF the
Richmond and Danville agent at john

to regard Judge Simonton's decision as
being infallible and he did not propose
to pay any attention to it until the Su,
preme Court of the United States decided
the question one way or another. He
has not very much of an opinion OF
Judge Simonton's views on this subject
and be expects to have Jail full of rail
road agents when the Supreme Court de-
cides against Judge Simonton-in the
sweet bye aud bye. He says that accor-
ding to his mind the laws of South Caro-
lima have to be carried out until they are
decided to be unconstitutional by some
higher authority than Circuit Judge.

Five on one Gallows.

ATLANTA, GA, September 20.-At
noon to-day five negroes were hanged
together on one gallows at'Mt. Vernon,
Montgomery County, Ga. Three of
them murdered Alexander Peterson,
rich merchant, last July, the fourth kill
ed five-year old child, and fifth MUIR
dered a negro companion. 1t was the
first hanging in Montgomery County
since the war. About 1000 spectators
surrounded the scaffold which had been
built in public place.
Lucien Manuel, Hiram Brewington
and Hiram Jacobs, mulatoes, murdered
Alexander Peterson, white man and
merchant, at Riley, Ca, on the night OF
July 20. They shot him to death,
their object being to rob bis store. The
crime was committed in MIR. Peterson's
store.
4 negro named Gordon fired into the
home Of a colored man named Barney
Neal some time last spring, killing
Neaps daughter. Pearce Strickland,
colored, fired into the house of negro
against whom he had grudge, killing the
negro's wife. The crime was committed
last July,
as follows: Gordon 90, Jacobs @,
Manuel %, Strickland 20 and Brewington
10. =,
The execution was made general hol-
iday in this section and the railroads
brought crowded excursions, composed
mostly of negroes. The prisoners were
taken from the Jail shortly after II
o'clock, placed in wagon and under the
escort of about forty deputy sheriffs
were driven 10 the scene Of the execution
some distance away. During the pro-
cession the men were self-possessed
showing no signs of fear, and on arrival
at the scaffold each of the men
took the place assigned to him on the
trap.
The usual praying and singing occur
red, and two of the men, Gordon and
Strickland, had written statements OF
their lives and crimes read to the crowd
while they calmly pnffed away at cigars
which had been given them by the sher-
| if. While the death warrant was being
read nota q man of them betrayed the
slightest nervousness, and when asked
by the minister if they felt sure
of Heaven they all answered in the afl1r-
| native.
Just before o'clock the men all bade
goodbye to friends in the crowd, the
| black caps were placed in position, and
| at 2.O2 the five bodies shot towards the
earth. After twenty-one minutes the
bodies we're cut down, and the medical
examination showed that all five necks
had been broken by the fall.
Sheriff Dunham and his deputies man
aged the execution without hitch, and
| the crowd was orderly throughout the
proceedings.

A Florists Little Lesson.

There is more wisdom than humor
in this clipping from the Detroit
Free Press. Perhaps there would be
fewer unhappy homes if the advice
here set forth was more generally acted
upon.
He stopped a moment on his way
home to look at a florists window,
and the florist, who saw him, ask

fine. 49,,
"You don't buy any flowers now 2"
said the florist.
''No," was the response, given
good-naturedly, though it was brief.
"And it used to be, a year ago or
more, that roses and violets and car

any difference to her. If I bought
them fresh and fragra 5, that was
enough.
"Why don't you take them to her
now? Did she choose another in your
stead?" and the florists voice was
sympathetic.
."0h, no. I married her year
ago." :,
The florist waited moment, as IT
thinking.
"And you don't love her now?'' he
asked, cautiously, as if treading on
thin ice.
!"Of course. We are very happy.
But you know the flower business
doesn't go any more. y
''Did she ever say so?''. asked the
florist.
"Well-um-er-no, [ can't say
that she ever did.
"Have you ever asked her about
it?"
"No. I never happened to think
of it. Busy, you know, with all

The Lash In Maryland.

FsDEaIoK, Md, Oct, -"Within
forty-eight hours the sheriff will take
you to the county Jail, iron you to the
whipping post and inAict thirty-nine
lashes upon your back as hard as he
can lay it on.
The above sentence was meted out
to Daniel Jones, a prominent farmer OF
this county yesterday to Judge Nc
Sherry Of the Circuit Court. Freder.
ick county authorities have decided
to enforce the law Furnishing wife
beaters with the lash, which still re-
mains on the Maryland statute books,
although it has not been enforced tor
nearly ten years.
Jones was, month ago convicted
of brutal assault on his wife, prompt
ed by insane jealousy. The woman
was SO severely injured that she was
unable to appear in court. The SEN
tence has created the most intense
excitement. Jones and his wife are
members Of old Maryland families,
being connected by blood or marriage
with many Of the most influential
people in. this portion of the State.
Everything that wealth and influence
could do to prevent the inaiction OF
the old colonial penalty was done, but
without avail.
The sentence is regarded by medi-
cal men as exceedingly severe. 1t has
been the experience in Delaware that
from eleven to seventeen lashes eau
ses unconsciousness in a white man,
but the sheriff, --nder the law, will be
compelled to administer the whole
thirty-nine. Jones will be the second
white man who has been whipped in
Maryland in nearly one hundred
years, the other case having occurred
in the Baltimore Jail about ten years

Congressman Strait Talks.

Congressman Strait, who recently left
Washington because of sickness and re-
turned to his home in Lancaster, came
over to Rock Hill Thursday and remained
until yesterday. He is improving and
will return to Washington perhaps on
Monday.
We called DR.. Straits attention to the
telegram from Washington to the Atlanta
Constitution, which we reproduce in our
columns, stating that it has developed
that Ben Terrell will come to South
Carolina for the purpose of comforting
with the reform leaders and to mature
plans to launch Third Party movement
here DR.. Strait was emphatic in the
statement that he knew nothing Of such
q scheme to organize the Third Party
here, saying that if Terrell were coming
for such purpose he had nothing to do
with it and was not in it. lie, however,
left Washington week ago, and did not
know what plans had been matured since
he left there. He felt very sure that

era front Washington to the Augusta
~ ,.sicle, also reproduced in our col
| ans, detailing scheme to redistrict
the State so as to put "Charleston in the
zine hole" The Doctor disclaimed know
ing anything about such proposition.
He had heard nothing of such scheme,
but knew there would be strong effort
made to defeat the reelection of Mr..
Brawley. Many prominent men from
the district had expressed such deter
mination, but he had not heard them say
who they would pit against the incum-
bent. He did not know what the result
would be, but was certain that if Mr.
Brawley should be returned it would be
after very hard fight against him.
DR.. Strait says there is no likelihood OF
any appointments being made In this
State for the present. Personally he had
gone to Postmaster General Bissell and
demanded that certain postoffices in his
own district should be Investigated with
a view to securing changes, but his de-
mands were ignored. He had then told
Mr.. Bissell to make such appointments
as he saw fit, so they were Democrats,
and take the responsibility, but he would
not even do that. In the case of the
Lancaster office, where the commission
of the Republican postmaster had ex-
pired, he had demanded that change be
made, but all to no purpose.
At the Rock Hill office he said the
Postmaster General had informed him
there would be no change until the COM
mission of the incumbent had expired.
He saw no probability Of the South
Carolina delegation getting together, but
hoped they would be able to do so.-
