AM Honors to Kossuth.

Buda Pesth, March 9O.-Never before,
not even at the death of royalty, has
there been such a genuine display of
popular regret as that which marked

awaited the arrival of the funeral train
at the station. Upon the arrival of the
train, the coffin was placed in the wait

Three DesperadOeS Hanged in Texas
Yesterday.
Little Rock, Ark, March 3O.--A re-
port from Paris, Tex, says: Edward
Consoles, Manning Davis ana Jim Up
kins, federal convicts, were hanged to-
day.
The crime for which Consoles paid
the death penalty was the murder of
John Daniels, a singing schoolteacher
in Blue county, Cherokee strip, in
1892. He was a pupil Of Daniels and
was expelled because his Fellow pupils
objected to him on account IF his ma
tionality. He murdered his teacher for
revenge.
Manning Davis crime was the most
brutal in the history of the Choctaw ma
ton. His victim was John Roden, a
neighbor The two men We're appar-
emily the best Of friends until the right
of December 26, 1892. That evening
Davis entered Roden's house and ac-
cused his neighbor of insulting his
wife. Roden protested hat ne was not
guilty of the charge, but Davis drew a
knife and stabbed him to death in the
presence of Mrs. Roden. Davis fled.
but was captured later on in Arkansas
by Deputy Sheriff Dollarhide, who was
afterwards murdered by Miller Davis,
brother OF Manning. Miller Davis
was hanged in Arkansas just two
weeks before sentence was passed on
his brother.
Jim Upkins was a heavy-set, ginger
caked negro, and was one of the most
brutal-looking of the African type. The
crime fsr which he yielded up his life
was revolving in the extreme. At Ad-
more, l. T., 1898, he outraged his g.
year-old stepdaughter, Mary Warden,
tearing the clothes from the child's
body and decorating her person in a
shocking manner. A highly dramtic
scene ensued at the examining trial
The negroes of the town organized a
mob and attempted to lynch him Judge
Gibbons stepped between the prisoner
land the mob and defiantly informed
them they would have to walk over
his dead body, and the dead bodies Of
the deputy marshals, before they could

MIGHT. NOT RIGHT.
Seal Poachers Are More Than Thor
OucIIy Exercised

Victoria, B. c.. March 3O-This is the
headquarters of the seal poachers, and
they are greatly excited over the news
of the action of the British government
in passing bill authorizing the seizure
of British vessels in Boring sea.
The sealers are practically unanimous
in declaring that putting in the regula-
tons this year would be a gross injus-
tice, as well as Illegal. Some say they
do not know if under the circumstances
there would not be redress in the courts
against the British authorities, who are
only acting in the interests of capital
lists and American politicians interested
in the seal islands.
1t appears to be a question of might,
not right The result will be the trans
fer of ships to some other flag not af-
fected by arbitration.
