MEDDLERS.

1t seems that the negro woman,
Ida Wells, who recently made tour
of England for the purpose of pro-
mitigating base falsehoods and ex-
aggerations concerning the South,
succeeded in creating some prejudice
against us.
The New York World announces
that an English committee has been
sent there to investigate and de
nounce Southern lynchings. We
would ask: What have they to do
with the matter? Why igo to New
York to investigate Southern affairs?
Why confine their operations of
sticking their noses into other peo-
Piles business to the South? Why
not investigate the lynchings in the
North, in the East, in the West. as
well as in the South-iu their own
country as we'll as in this?
1t has been charged that the mis-
sion of the negro woman to England
was conceived in spirit of jealousy
towards the South, because it was
beginning to attract the attention of
the world as the most inviting field
of the Union. The incident VIC are
now discussing gives the color of
truth to the charge. Such base
methods are apt to recoil upon the
projectors.
If these Investigators were impelled
by sincere motives and would look
at facts without prejudice, instead of
coming with. the expressed purpose
of denouncing, we would say let them
come and investigate to their hearts
content. They would find that there
have been some lynchings in the
South, as well as in other parts of
the world. They will find that the
authorities, the press and public
sentiment are largely very much
to the practice. They will
find that officers of the law have pro-
tected criminals at the cost OF their
own lives. They will find a growing
to prevent lynching by
providing for speedier trials before
the courts of justice. They will find,
also, that Southern men regard the
of Southern women as
above everything else and that the
,coundrel who commits the fiendish
crime of rape must die.

WAS A NIGHT OF TERROR.
Thrilling Time Fad by "a Tramp, Sta.
tionMaster and an Oyster Can.

At way station on the Louisville
and Nashville last winter the station
keeper had an exciting time, says the
Louisville Commercial. 1t was mid
night, and the station being in a de-
serted part of the country, had been
left by the loafers. 1t began to rain.
The station-keeper was not sleepy and
determined to sit up n greater part OF
the night, especially as he had an un-
usual sum of money in his cash draw
er, and he felt uneasy about it. Rob-
berries of stations and farmhouses down
the line had been frequent. SO he
settled himself down to a vigil. As he
telt hungry he took a can of cove
oysters down from the shelf and sat it
IN the stove.
moment afterward there was a
knock at the door, and he admitted a
| cold, drpnched tramp, whom he al
lowed to lie down by the fire. Just
then train came around the bend and
the station agent stepped outside to
display the go-ahead signal. He felt
distrustful of the tramp and feared
that he would fool with the money
drawer. AS the train passed he hur-
| ried into the room and had scarely
opened the door and seen the tramp
standing by the stove with something
| @listening in his hand, when there was
report, and the agent felt a stipging
sensation over his eye.
Although blinded with blood from
the wound he drew his pistol and fired
! five times into the room. He then
| dashed round to the rear of the station
and hid under the platform. After an
hours time he crawled out, resigned
to the loss of his money, and thank
full that he had escaped with his life.
The room was dark, the fire was ont.
The tramp had evidently escaped with
his booty. Sorrowfully the agent lit a
match. but instantly dropped it when
a startling sight met his eyes. He lit
another one, found 4 candle, and gazed
about at the scene of desolation.
The lamp had been shattered by {
bullet. A cheese had been perforated
with two bullets. The room was tilleC
with smoke from the stovepipe. whicl

TURNS FROM ANIMAL TO PLANT.
A Curious Object Found in New Zealand
An Apparently Dual Nature.

The most curious of all objects in
New Zealand is that which the Maorls
call "aweto," saws Chambers Journal.
One is uncertain whether to call it an
animal or plant. In the first stages
of its existence it is simply a caterpil-
lar, about three or four inches in
length. and always found in connec-
ton with the rata tree. kind OF How
ering myrtle. 1t appears that when 1T
reaches full growth it buries itself two
or three inches under ground, where,
instead of undergoing the ordinary
chrvsalis process,i it becomes gradually
transformed into plant, which exact
ly fills the body and shoots up at the
neck to height of eight OF ten inches.
This plant resembles in appearance a
diminutive bulrush, and the two, ami
NAL and plant,are always found lnsep-
arabic. One is apt TO relegate 1t to
the domain of imagination, among
dragons and mermaids; but then its
existence and nature have been ac-
cepted by the late Frank Buckland.
How it propagates its species Is a mys-
terv. One traveller, after describing 9
its dual nature, calmly states that 1t
is the grub of the night butterfly. If
so, then the grub must also become a
butterfly. or what beconeS of the spe-
cies? One would be ready to suppose
that the Grub does really so, and that
| some fungus finds the cast-off slough
| congenial quarters for its growth. But
! as far as present observation goes the
| grub never becomes butterfly. but is
| changed in every case into plant.

Dentistry in Paris.

1t is within living memory, says the

best know9 to Parisians were what
was called "arracheurs de DENTS" or
tooth drawers, who had chairs on the
Champs Elysees. in which they ex-
tracted teeth in the presence of large
crowds. 1t was the popular belief
that, in &rder to support their procla-
nation that the operation was pain
less, as soon as the dentist got his
pincers firmly fixed on the tooth, he
whispered III the patients ear, Can
