Great Excitement.

On the night of the Goth inst Jim
Stone, colored brute, was lynched at
May field for an assault made on Mrs.
j. M. r, Greene.
This enraged the resident negroes
and those of adjoining towns, and
they went to work organizing mobs
for the purpose of marching on to
Mayfeld and revenging the death of
their colored brute. Advices reached
MAY field and the sounding of the riot
bell brought out hundreds of citizens
armed with pistols, shotguns and
Winchester rifles determined to re-
pulse any attack and defend their
homes and lives. Citizens at Padu-
cab, Fulton and other places, number
ing about 1000, proffered assistance
to Mayfield and the widest excite
ment pervaded the entire section,
while negroes continued to organize
This state of affairs continued sew
eral days but quiet was finally restor-
ed and race war barely averted, the
mob spirit and general riot DISPOSE
ton was denounced by the better CT
tizens and the law will be permitted
to take its course.

"In making these suggestions 1t is

His own opinion was against recog-

vigor; bnt, having expressed it, he
ended his message with these truly
patriotic words:
"Having thus discharged my duty,

Coming.
kansas City Times, Jan. /, 1896,


Gan agreeable surprise" was the
verdict of every one who went to Ly-
ceum Hall last night, when the Van
derbilt University Glee, Mandolin
and Banjo Clubs gave their first con-
cert in Kansas City. And they were
Justified in their remarks, for the sons
of the Sunny South put up program
that would be hard to beat, even it
Yale or Harvard were the contestees
The lusty youths from the land of su :
gar cane and cotton, a handsome lot of
boys withal, are fortunate in being
"to the manor born" when ii comes
to the glees and songs of the negro
race and as these made up q large
portion of their programme, they
were naturally very good and exceed
ingly funny.
"The Mandolin and Banjo Clubs
were not whit behind the glee club,
either in number or quality of their
music and encores, The most popu-
lar number of the banjo club was
"Little Rastus PATROL" which was a
"hummer." Other popular pieces
were the "Amorita" and VARSITY
Club" by the mandolin club and "Old
Gold and Black" bv the banjos.
Especial mention must be made of
Mr.. LeBarge, who wrote nearly all of
The music played or sung on the trip,
and who is one of the finest banjoists
in the country"

"ANDREW JACKSON.
"Washingtop, Dec. 81, 1885,"

"ANDREW JACKSON.
"Washington, Dec. 81, 1885,"
On Wednesday, March l, 1887, ac-
cordingly, the Senate adopted this
resolution recognizing the indepen-
dence of Texas:
Resolved, That the State of Tex
as, having, established and maintain
ed an independent Government capa-
bic of performing those duties foreign
and domestic, which appertain 10 in
depent Governments, and it appearing
that there is no longer any reasonable
prospect of the successful prosecution
of the war by Mexico against such
State, 1t is expedient and proper, and
in conformity with the laws of ma
tions and the practice of this Govern
ment in like cases, that the indepen-
dent political existence of said State
be acknowledg ed by the Government
of the United States"
We especially invite the attention of
the Hon. Richard Olney, and of all
others concerned, to the fact that the
adoption of this resolution by Con-
gress constituted the recognition of
Texas by the United States Govern
ment, and that the date Of the adoption
of this resolution was the date of our
acknowledgement Of Texan independ-
ence. Gen. Jackson signed it, in spite
of his own views on the subject; but
If he had vetoed the resolution, and it
had then passed over his veto, Texas
would have been recognized all the
same.
In one particular, however, An
drew Jackson was outrageously mis-
taken. In yielding precedence to
Congress in the matter of recognizing
Texas, he expressed the opinion that
no dispute would arise between the
Executive and the Legislature in re-
gard to the exercise of power of rec
ognition. None had ever occurred be-
fore !; none would occur in the future :,
he thought; inasmuch as the only
safe course, and, where the possibility
of war was involved, the only course
consistent with the spirit of the Con-
stitution, was the submission of the
question to Congress, as the war-de-
claring power. Andrew Jackson did
not deem it possible that just sixty
years from that day an executive Off
Ger of the United States would be
found denying the right of Congress
to exercise the same power, defyiDg
Congress to exercise it, and with ap-
perehtly studied insolence threatening
to nullify any law by which Congress
might attempt to exercise it.
: In other words, Andrew Jackson
did not forsee Grover Cleveland's
theory of Executive paramountcy
and his mind was incapable of con-
ceiving the Hon Richard OIney's as
surance in settling offhand in his own
favor and in sarcastic terms difficult
question of Constitutional interpreta-
ton which has never been satisfactor-
lily determined either by legislation or
by judicial construction.
And yet Andrew Jackson had a
will OF his own and lacked neither
courage nor backbone when he knew
he was right. New York Sum-,

Tandems are becoming wonderful. ly popular this year, and new tan den which has just appeared prom ises to be more popular than any of its predecessors. The little ma- chine is known as the ".Iuvenile Tan dem" and the youngsters ought to be happy. Many inquiries have been sent to the makers this year for double machine for the little folks. but the manufacturers have been SO busy Il rning out the regulation bi- cycles that they have not given the attention to the matter that the de- mand would seem to warrant. One firm has taken the initiative and has turned out Il lot of these tandems and the wise business policy which prompted this move is already ap- parent. The Juveniles" are made with 26, 24 and 20 inch wheels. The smaller tandems are listed at $100, and the 26-inch wheels at $125. The Western Wheel Works of Chicago, makers of the Crescent bicycles, is the company responsible for the innoya- tiOn.

The Jefferson Chancery Court was in session for a brief period this morning,at which time one side of the arguments in the injunction suit brought by I. J. Porter against Frank Kendall and others, was heard by Judge Robinson, but owing to the fact that Judge Robin son had to leave for Star City at l0:45 o'clock, he was compelled to adjourn his court without hear ing the other side of the case. This case is one in which Porter seeks to enjoin Kendall and others from securing a charter from the State for the purpose of building rail- road.

CYCLING NOTES.

n THE members of
 5: ::: ::::: ]: ,: !: :: : all others connected with the bicycle industry, will be gratified at the stand taken by President R. Lindsay Coleman in regard to the Eastern National Show. As has just been announced the exhibit will be made in Grand Central Palace in New York City in February of next year. Both Philadelphia and Boston were considered by Mr. Coleman, because of flattering offers, but in summing up the probable benefits to the pub- lie and trade at large, he quickly reached the conclusion that the Me tropolis is the only place for such an educational exhibit as the annual show has proved to be. Since an- nouneing his decision in the matter Mr. Colman has received many let ters and telegrams complimenting him on the stand taken. The manu- facturers especially are pleased be- cause of their escape from the clutches of the Madison Square Gar den management which has hereto fore charged the exhibitors for every nail driven in the building. Any fear that the Grand Central Palace is not large enough for the show may be dispelled, for it covers over 100000 square feet of space-more than double the space ever occupied before for any cycle show. He feels sanguine that there will be more ex- hibitors in line than at any previous show in this country or in Europe, and that the number of visitors for the week will not fall far short of 200, ,000.
