ing yesterday were plAinly suppressed A
more barbarous crime was never prrpo.
trutcd in Civiizsd community.
The story Of how the prisoner was first
attacked has been told. After he was
knocked senselcss, men jumped upon his
head with their heavy boots and left his
face an unrecognIzable mass. Men stood
around while boys Of thirteen plunged
knives into bis body.
A woman standing on her porch in full
view Of tho butchcry tainted as IL man
drew his knife deliberately down the
mans leg from thigh TO knee and laid it
upon to the bone.
Boys were urged to stone him as he lay
on the ground. and they battered his facc
with pieces Of bricks Until their hands
were smcnrcd with blood. The men who
were nearest the body looked nike
butchers.

with the New Century Club have sent out
circulars to the women of our city who
are property owners, urging upon them the
necessity of going to the polls tomorrow
Saturday and voting. The committee
some time ago paid visit to the tax col
lector's office and copied the names Of
some 1900 women who own property and
pay city taxes. To these property owners
they have addressed and mailed circular
letters urging upon them the necessity of
coming out and voting. The circular ends
with the following pert invitati on:
'What can possibly be moro important
to us, as mothers or guardians Of the chill
dren OF this community, than their educa
ton, and it is surely duty to commit the
oversight of this matter only to those who
are best fitted in every way to fultlls this
trust"

of the New Century Club will place candi-
dates of their own in several wards whose
tickets will be put around to morrow, and
an effort made to elect the members they
have sanctioned for the position.

THE TWILIGHT HOUR.

How beautiful the roses bloom
Along the Brandywine,
Tho summer breeze with sweet perfume,
Steals over tree and vine.
The songbird too what gladstone otes,
He trills 90 full and free
In joyful lays 1t upward floats
That song Of melody.
How lovely yonder sunset CLOVIS,
Across the western sky,
Above the green blood red rose.
1t beams upon the eye.
Each grassy nook and fragrant flower,
Each tree and shrub In sight,
Combine to make the twilight hour,
A beauteous scene tonight.
Fair sylvan glades where happy hearts
May live and love Away.
Without fear except for darts
That Cupid filings in play.
How lovely now that scene would be
III she were only here,
That lass gave her heart to me
For whom l shed tear.
What have done, Oh lovely one,

Inc sunshine Of my life Is gone
Como back and be my bride.
Come back my fondest, dearest maid,
That river still doth flow,
Beneath the bridge where once laid
This heart for thee so low.

A Gathering Of Doctors.

The physicians Of our city and vicinity
are certainly under obligations to DR..
Joseph Fl. Chandler for the outing afford
cd to them on Thursday, at his beautiful
place at Centreville. His object in thus
royalty entertaining them was to cultivate
friendly feeling and lead to higher aims
and aspirations on the part Of every mem
Der of the fraternity. Beside tho bouu.
teous provision of food, the lectures deliv
cred were entertaining and may prove
profitable to the younger members of the
profession. The eulogy of DR.. Wood of
the American doctors, we hope will be de-
served through all coming time. 1t is
we'll that they should continue to relieve
suffering without regard to big fees or
hope of reward. In Europe 1t seemed to
him the mercenary feeling predominated
and therefore he considered the American
physicians stood above any others on the
globe. Such compliment should be APP
preciated as the name of doing good is
greatly preferable to that of miser or
skinflint. We hope DR.. Chandler will be
spared many years to give his annual din
ners and thusIcontribute to the pleasure as
well as the profit Of the different members
of the medical profession in our city and
vicinity. In another column will be found
a short sketch of the doings that will
make Thursday memorable in the life of

Prostitution as Senator Gray Sees 1t.
Ex-senator George Gray should bear i'll
mind the fact that free trade has caused
moro prostitution than any other doctrine
that ever was practiced or preached to the
people of the United States, as many q
parent can testify since the mills OF our
cities have shut down, throwing the me-
clanic aud laborer and their children out
OF employment and cutting off their means

Senator Gray 5 protection ideas are a great
moral question and our people know it by
the bitter experience they have had within
the last three years and more especially
since the Wilson bill has gone into effect,
Senator Gray made the following remark
in answer to a question asked him by Mr..
Stewart in the debate on the tariff oues.
ton: IF he believed in a revenue duty
that gave incidental protection" The
Senator replied; mo more than believe
Ill VIRTUE with Incidental prostitution"
{ The above is said to be the words the
Delaware Senator used Had he given
more care to his words, he would never
have uttered them.
They have been spoken, and the world
can judge of their full meaning. While
the common people arc living two fami-
lies in one house to &c lnomize and living
on the bare neCcs tiles Of life, he Senators
are drawing 5000 year and living OFF tho
fat of the land. This shows who Is the
poor mans friend. And tho people keep
on being hoodwinked into supporting
them every time they come up before them
