LOWNDES lNAUGURATED.

Governor of Maryland Sworn in Where
 Washington Delivered His Farewell Ad-
 dresa.
 ANNAPOLIS, Md, Jan. 9.-For the first time in it's history, this state has . republican governor, elected and in. augurated as a repu blican, and for the first time since the war the admins. tration of public affairs is in the hands of an executive who is not affiliated with the democratic party. At noor. yesterday Chief Justice Robinson, of the court of appeals, in the presence of both houses of the assembly, admin. istered the oath of office prescribed by the constitution to Lloyd Lowndes. of Allegheney. After delivering his ad. dress, Gov. -elect Lowndes was escort ed across the portico and through the window into the senate chamber. In this historic room, in which George Washington resigned his commission as commander-in-chief of the American army to the conti- mental congress, and delivered his farewell address, Lloyd Lowndes was sworn in. In hls inaugural address Gov. Lowndes declared that he con. sidered himself and his party pledged to give the people of the state an eco nomical government, retrenching ex- pcnses and reforming abuses. In con- clusion, he pledged himself to be gov ernor of the whole state, and not of any political party.

More Money for Pensions.

WASHINGTON, Jan. a-The sub.com. mittee of the house appropriations committee, having charge of the pen- sion bill, has decided to increase the amount for the next fiscal year from $l3s, s,ooo, 900 to $40, coo. .OoO. The last amount was that asked for by Commis. sioner Lochren in his estimates. Some of the most influential republicans thought that congress should not put itself on record as allowing less money for pensions than the commissioner thought was needed, so the bill was raised to the original estimates

Preferred His Wit.

of had joked less would have been a bishop!" So said Sidney Smith. and he doubtless told the truth. He was man ot genius and scholarship, but the people got into the habit of looking to him for amusement and entertainment. and when he talked or wrote seriously he disappointed them. People are un- willing to credit a man with great abili- ty in various and diverse lines of intel- lectual endeavor. They are severe crit ics of the writings of speaker, the speeches of writer, the prose of poet, the poetry of prose writer, the jokes of a sage and the philosophy of a joker. Sidney Smith found only few readers when he put his wisdom on paper. What they wanted from him was not wisdom, but the dazzling flashes of his wit and humor.-Atlanta Constitution. h

DRAIN ON THE TREASURY.

Gold Reserve Drops Below 86O, ,OO0, ,0oO
 and Withdrawals stili Continue.
 WASHINGTON, Jan. 9-The treasury yesterday lost g., l63, 900 in gold bars and Sl, ,O96, 900 in gold coin, and received from the Mercantile bank Of New York $500, ,0OO in exchange for currency, making the net loss for the day g, 759,- 900. This leaves the true amount of reserve at the close of business Sss,326.7lo In financial circles here the fear is ex- pressed that these heavy withdraw- als are but the beginning of heavy ex- ports. It is recalled that during last January the withdrawals amounted to about $45 ,OO0 600, of which $50, 900, 900 were withdrawn within two weeks and over S7,OO0, GOO in one day. The fact that 30 days must elapse before the new bond issue can be closed and the contracts awarded seems to add to the anxiety heretofore felt, and in some quarters the opinion is expressed that before February the gold reserve will be reduced considerably below any point reached hitherto.

LYNCHED,
Two Negroes Lynches While on Their Way to Trial

Two Negroes Lynches While on Their Way
 LEXINGTON, Tenn, Jan. 9.-The trial of Frank Simpson and Harrison Full Ter, colored, charged with having as- saulted Mrs. Pomeroy, widow, and her 16.year-old daughter in this county last August, was to have occurred here yesterday, and for this purpose the two negroes were brought in on the noon train from Nash vile, where the sheriff had placed them for safe keeping, but they were met by a mob of some 400 or 800 men, who at once proceeded to administer the law of Judge Lynch, by suspending the two negroes to a railroad trestle about mile from town, and when this was done, at Q signal from the leader, the mob fired a volley of some 200 or 300 shots into the negroes, almost perforating their bodies Then the mob quietly dis persed. Simpson confessed his guilt before he was hanged, while Fuller maintained that he was innocent until the last The mob made no attempt at disguise.

ENGLAND PREPARING,
Looks Very Much Like War with Germany
 Indignant Brit0ns.

~'S~No vOEy "ucu Atk0 war with Goem0uy
 Indignant lritons.
 LONDON, Jan. 9.-The gravity of the political crisis here is increasing in- stead of diminishing. The attitude of Emperor William toward Great Brit ain in the matter of Dr. Jameson's freebooting expedition into the Trans vaal, upon closer study, seems to have been deliberate and long and carefully planned. The Trans vaal incident, it would appear, was only the pretext seized upon by the emperor in order to enter the field as an active opponent of Great Britain's s policy of aggrandizement in Africa, and her little misunderstanding with King Prempeh, of Ashanti, together with her support of Italy's warfare against Abyssinia, are believed to have been the irritating features which finally induced his majesty to show his hand. The British are incensed to a degree not witnessed since war with Russia was threatened several years ago.
 The German emperor, it appears, has planned to land force of Germans at Delagoa bay in order to assist the Boers against the British and only de. sisted from doing so when he learned of Dr. Jameson's defeat and capture. This, it is claimed, is proof that his message to President Krueger, con- graduating him upon his victory over the British and his majesty's reported announcement to Dr. w. J. Leyds, the secretary of state of the Transvaal, that Germany refused to recognize any suzerainty over, the Transvaal, were we'll weighed moves and tho result of prearranged policy.
 The military authorities no longer attempt to conceal the fact of their ac. tivity in preparing for a possible war. All the regiments of the British army, army reserve volunteers and militia re- serve, have been ordered to make i'm. mediate returns of their strength for mobilization, but as yet no further:step in this direction have been deemed necessary.
 Among the volunteers and militia there is strong feeling in favor of en. rollment for active service and on all sides the greatest enthusiasm is dis played. There seems to be feeling here that Great Britain has stood all she can stand in the way of studied opposition on the part of Germany, even if the latter is backed by France and Russia, which is not con nsidered to be certain. The commanding officers of the different regiments of volunteers have been overwhelmed with letters wishing to be enrolled for active serv- ice

he had exhausted his pipe he knocked the ashes out and rose up and entered the cabin. There was whisky in the cupboard and he helped himself to a drink. When he reappeared at the door he stood for moment looking about, and the half-asleep dogs reused up and came gamboling about his feet.
 "Gwine now?" queried the wife
 "Yes, gwine now"
 He kicked the dogs aside and went off up the trail. The woman sat with her eyes on her work, and he cast no back ward glance. The dogs followed for few rods and then gave it up and re- turned to their dusty beds. Two miles up the trail was Taylor's cabin. Itwas the same sort of a hoveI-same poor acres grown up to weeds-same poverty of pocket and intellect. A woman sat smoking on the doorstep, but she was alone. Her husband had gone down the trail with his rifle on his shoulder.
 "Gwine to kill Jim Green?" she asked, ns he was ready to go.
 Reckon so," he replied, as he moved away.
 Two cabins-two wives on the door steps--two men with rifles on the trail between. At that height above the sea sound travels a long distance. Both women heard the crack of rifle by and by, but both smoked on. After an hour or two Taylor returned home. When he had lighted his pipe and taken seat beside her the wife asked:
 "Leave him down thar'?"
 "Yes, left him down thar" was the reply.
 Two or three hours later mar stopped before the other cabin and said to the woman smoking her pipe on the doorstep:
 "Jim's bin popped"
 Up thar'?" she asked, pointing up the trail.
 "Yes, up thar"
 "Lyin' dcad?"
 "Yes, lyin' dead. Good eavenin'."
 "Eavenin' to yo'."-N. Y. Sun.

answered man and wife

"Howdy9" answered man and wife in chorus.
 Powerful hot?"
 "Yes, powerful" No more is said until Joe fills and lights his pipe and takes a seat on a nearby stump. Then the woman, her eyes on his feet, quietly asks:
 Reckon him orter do it, Joe?"
 "Of co'se him orter." replied Joe.
 "fes, fur shore," adds the husband. 'It'll be the ole man 2" said the wom- m after pause lasting two minutes.
 The ole man, of co'se," replied Joe. "fes, the ole man," added the hus- band.
 One of the dogs lazily arose and Wslked over and licked Joe's hand, and In return he patted the animals head in half kind way. It was five minutes before anyone spoke again. The wife had grown pale-faced, and her fingers tremblcd as she piled the needles. There was something like anxiety in her tones us she said:
 "I wish Jim wouldn't do it. don't like this killin,."
 'Hev to kill" replied Joe, as he took the dogs ear in his hand.
 "Yes, hev to kill, added the husband, as he arose and yawned and stretched his limbs.
 Joe held the rife out to him, and he took it and hefted 1t and examined it's several parts and nodded his head with satisfaction.
 "io' kin drap him at 40 rods," said Joe, as he pushed the dog away.
 From B to 40," answered Jim, as he brought the weapon up and sighted along the barrel.
 "Got to make suah work"
 "ies, suah work. Come fur 1t to- lnorrer."
 Reckon will. Day to yo' all."
 When the caller had gone his way the husband sat down and freshly filled his pipe and made another exam ination of the rife. A long silence was broken by the wife's query:
 What's the fussin', Jim?"
 Same as befo'."
 "The ole man Taylor and our two hogs?"
 "Yes. He wants damages, and I won't pay"
 "Gwine ter kill him?"
 Fur shore"
 'Wish yo' wouldn't"
 "Got ter"
