Adam Uner Hanged and His Naked

He Was Innocent

CARSON, New, Dec. 7.-One Of the
most horrible lynchings ever known in
Nevada occurred at Genoa, IA miles
from here, at 2 o'clock this morning.
Adam Uber, who last week shot and
killed Hans Anderson in a Millerville
saloon. was hanged by mob of masked
men to a cottonwood tree half mile
distant from the Jail.
When taken from his cell the victim
had on nothing but shirt. This was
torn on by the lynchers. and the nude
body was left dangling in the air for
six hours. As the body was being pulled
up, the mob riddled 1t with bullets

reason that will justify American in
tervention in the Cuban question. This
undoubted fact is. confirmed by the ex-
!ecutive Of the American union"
I'm view of the absolute sovereignty
Of Spain over Cuba and Of the absence
of such conditions as would entttfe the
insurgents to claim recognition as bellig-
erents, facts acknowledged In the presi-
dents message, as was to be expected.
because reason. justice and right re-
quired, we protest with all our energy
against declarations aiming to show
that the United States would be justified
in assuming another attitude IN certain
CONTINGENCIES in the future.
"Such declarations may be intended.
as they probably are. to console the
jingoes for failure, but there is not a
Spaniard who will not show indignation
at all such suggestions.
Spain in any event will repel any
demonstration looking to the interven-
ton of a foreign state in affairs abso-
lutely her own; and the United States
shall never. under any consideration,
take even an indirect part in the settle
ment Of our own particular concerns"
Ell Pals, the organ OF the autonomists,
thinks the message very favorable to
the interests Of Cuba, and believes the
attitude President Mckinley has as
sumed will calm the fury Of the par
tisans Of independence And 1t adds:
1.-The radical change in Spanish policy,
the establishment of autonomy and the
release of political prisoners Is working
a rapid and most surprising transform
alton. 1t demonstrates that Spain.

LONDON, Dec. 1.-THE st. James
Gazette this afternoon, commenting
upon President McIkinley's message,
says:
1T has disappointed everybody in the
attempt to give universal satisfaction.
President Mckinley is in an unpleas-
ant position, having to sit on the fence.
AS a whole it looks like an early con-
fession Of great failure
The Pail Mall Gazette takes a favor :
able view Of the message and criticises
the comments Of the Times, remarking
that 1t is as impossible ito deal with the
Cuban question without offending Spain
as it would be to deal with Armenia
without offending the Sultan
The Globe is of the opinion that 1t
would have taxed the abilities even of
great statesman to deal with the
questions satisfactorily, adding: "All
the arguments against the annexation
Of Cuba are wholly applicable to Hawaii,
but the United States is determined to
have the latter, though Americas a fourth
rate naval power, as 1t Is, can only hold
Hawaii on sufferance. In the event of
war, she would be bundled out. neck
and crop, by any first rate power which
finds it necessary to occupy the island" "

M'KINLEY AT CANTON
AND FINDS HIS AGED MOTHER
STILL ALIVE
Recovery Sufficient for Recognition Is
Vouchsafed-The Family Waits
Resignedly For the End

CANTON, o., Dec. 7.-Once more the
children of Mrs. Mckinley have gathered
about her couch, made sacred by her
tenacious struggle against death. The
union is complete. The President
arrived before the death angel made his
visit. With the children were other
relatives, among whom was the aged sis
ter of Mrs. Mckinley, Mrs. Osbourne,
mother of Consul Vim. Osbourne.
There was Joy unspeakable in the
breast Of the President as he stood at
the bedside. He had been permitted to
again see his mother alive, after having
answered all the obligations to his coun-
try.
In the little upper room at the Nc
Kinley homestead there was a scene al
most too sacred for pen to write Of.
The eyes Of all present were filled with
tears as they witnessed the remarkable
and almost miraculous rally of the
Presidents mother from the uncon-
scious state into which she had fallen
early in the morning. AS her son en-
tered the room accompanied by his wife
and Miss Mabel Mckinley, the sister
of the President, Miss Helen said:
Mother, here are William and Ida."
The President knelt by her bedside,
kissed his mother tenderly, reverently,
and as he did SO, she put her arm about
his neck and signified that she knew
him. She also recognized the Presi-
dents wife and extended hand
toward her. She recognized Mabel Nc
Kinley and Jack Duncan.
It seemed to friends that she had been
awaiting the arrival of her son. Soon
afterwards she lapsed into an uncon-
scious state and the strength that had
been husbanded for the last meeting
Of mother and son, seemed to leave her.
In the midst Of the deep sorrow Of the
family, there Is feeling Of JOY that
the president has been permitted to
reach his mothers bedside before the
inevitable dissolution came, and that
the mother might again realize his
presence and he know that he had been
recognized. These hopes have been
granted them and they now patiently
and resignedly await the end.
The president has remained almost
constantly at the bedside since his ar
rival. and kept tonight's vigil. relieving
others Of the children, who have been
constantly at the bedside.
He remained close to the house all
day, going out only for a little air and
exercise, taking walk near the house.
At 2:30 a. m. Mother Mckinley was
resting comfortably; no perceptible
| change.
3:1O.-The president has just retired,
feeling sure from the condition of his
mother that she will be alive at dawn.
There is no change in her condition
She is still resting easily.

MAPLE SUGAR.


widespread Ignorance the PART 81
Consumers.
Speaking of maple sugar brings to
mind the fact that there is no product
of the farm concerning which there is
greater ignorance ON the part of con-
sumers than maple sugar and strip. 1t
seems to be almost the universal opinion
that maple strip to be genuine must be
dark in color and of thick, heavy
body. | have carefully studied this mat
ter, and | am convinced that dealers In
large towns and cities are largely re-
sponsible for this. Maple strip is one Of
the easiest things to doctor. For in.
stance, gallon of strictly pure, light
colored maple strip Is received, and for
eign substances, US cane sugar or glu-
cose, are added and three gallons made
and all are branded pure maple strip"
Some years ago stepped into gro

Yes, and | ship it every spring to

probably made in Chicago "
Last spring | sent gallon by re-
quest to a pastor of a church in Brook
Ign who in his boyhood days used to
live on farm in Chenango county and
knew what real maple sirup was. We
sent him a gallon Of early make, of

The efficiency Of the employees of the

Several of the employees were shown
the picture, which was taken with a
small camera, and which did not show
the face Of the person photographed
very distinctly. one of the carriers
named Walter q Coleman, the general
travelling agent of the F. G, and p. rail
way, was the person. Several of the
clerks and carriers did not think that 1t
was intended for Mr. Coleman, while
others sided with the Bay street carrier
Finally wager Of 81 was made, and
the carrier started out to deliver it.
When he reached Mr. Coleman 3

the photograph as one of himself A

that if the picture was good one she
would send it to him. 1t also appears
