O'Clock this morning a mob Of a thous-
and men took Harrison Lewis, the negro
who murdered Joe Brooks. also colored,
on Friday night, from the jail and
hanged him to d tree in the court house

n4ers and after three hours work u c
ceeded in battering down the jail door.
Lewis begged %piteously for his life. but
with a rope around his neck he was
dragged to the nearest tree and strung
up. IT is the opinion of many that the
mob was composed of colored men.
Friday night Lewis went to Brooks
house and calling him to the door shot
him down on his own threshold without
WaruiD". Lewis was a brother Of Mat
thew Lewis, who narrowly escaped
lynrhing here two weeks ago for an as

SEATTLE, Aug. 26.-The Northern Pa
citic fight on the question of Judge
Jenkins jurisdiction IN the matter Of
the appointment Of the present receivers,
ended in the federal court Saturday SO far
as the arguments are concerned, and the
court has taken the question under ad-
visement. The feature of today's pro-
ceedings was the speech made by Col
Petit, counsel for the Northern Pacific
company, in which he severely a~rraigned
the other side. He made one statement
which created a sensation in the count
room. He had admitted the allegation
that the Northern Pacific company had
sold five millions of receivers certificates
to innocent people, when eX-United
States Senator Spooner, of counsel for
the receivers remarked: "Yes, and you
bid on them for Mr.. Ives, did you not?.'
Then Col. Petit admitted that he had,
ana said: u supposed that Mr.. Crowell.
general counsel for the company, knew
that these certificates were not valid un.
less they had been authorized by the
courts having Jurisdiction over the prop
erty on which they were supposed to be
a lien. 1t was only within two weeks
that [ learned the contrary.
These certificates" said Petit, "aro
not a lien on the property under the law
in which the Farmers Loan and Trust
company were defendant and the people
plaintiff. The holders of these certii-
Gates would have to depend for their
payment on the courts which have juris-
diction,"

Let us have United Statesism and plen-

abroad, from ambassador to cOnsul's
fourth clerk. No aggressive jingoism or
foolish b~oastfulness, but just q steady
adherence to the belief that this republic
is the best and greatest country that ever
was, just a steady impressing of that
fact on all other nations, with the assur-
ance that every citizen of this republic
at home Or abroad will uphold her rights

THE GAY NEW znALANDnns.
They Are n Notwithstanding ana
PIcnic-Loving People.


The colonists of New Zealand are a
holiday-making people. There is al
most an average OF one recognized
holiday to a month, and 1t IL a common
practice for all working people to take
two or more days at Christmas. the
New Year and Easter, 30 as to make an
unbroken playtime of three or four
days, including Sundays.
Then the great mass of the people
give themselves up to amusement.
Horse races. athletic sports, boat races
and excursions are carried on in every
available spot, and are attended by
large and well-behaved crowds.
The commonest of all holiday amuse-
ments. however. is the picnic. The sew
eral trades sects and societies have
picnics of their own, to which the pub
lie are cordially welcomed on the pay
ment Of a small sum towards the eX-
pense Of the entertainment.
1t is amusing to the railway traveller
to note. as he passes through some
pretty countryside, not one or two but
perhaps fifty. different picnlcs in full
swing, each numbering scores or hum
dreds of guests. 1t has been said, with
much more truth than Is usually to be

to account for Blount's overlooking

and Milton Is hard 10 account for.
Albeit, Bacon was born three years
before Shakespeare. and outlived him
by ten; yet lin his multifarious writ

That Shakespeare should be neg
lected In his day is as difficult TO under
stand as that certain books which now
sell by the hundreds of thousands ever
found a publisher. Curiosity leads many
to read what would be otherwise en-
tirely neglected. However. 1t is no
doubt true. as Coleridge has pointed
out in his curious history OF his own
mental growth, that mo models of past
times, however perfect, can have the
same vivid effect on the youthful mind
as the productions OF contemporary
genius. The great works OF past ages
seem to young man things of another
race. In respect TO which his faculties
must remain passive and submissive, even
as to the stars and mountains. But
the writings of a contemporary, per-
haps not many years older than him
self, surrounded by the same circum-
stances and disciplined by the same
manners. possess n reality for him,
and inspire an actual friendship as OF
