A MOSS VENGEANCE.


II Falls on Three DusI1y Murderers-Fire,
Lynchere.
New ORLEANS, Jan. 21.-A mob Of
200 men broke into the Amite City jail
Tuesday night and secured John john
son, Archie Joiner and Gus Williams,
negro murderers. A force of deputies
guarded the jail and made stubborn
resistance, but were overpowered.
Williams was hanged in front of tho
jail. The mob then proceeded from
Amite with the others to Tickfaw, La,
where at o'clock Wednesday morning
johnson was burned at the stake and
Joiner was shot to death. johnson was
taken to the home of the Cotton family,
his victims, bound to a stake, the torch
applied to the faggots and slowly tor
tured to death. He denied some OF his
former statements and blamed Joiner,
but admitted that he was guilty OF the
murders with which he was charged.
Joiner was told to make statement
before he was put to death and pro-
tested his innocence. His body wa
filled with bullets from the guns of the
mob.
johnson is the self-confessed mur-
derer Of Mr.. and Mrs. John Cotton,
Miss Agnes Stevenson, Miss Lizzie
Miller and Mervin Miller.
On September 25, while the family
slept, they were hacked to death with
an ak. One of the family lived long
enough to tell it was johnson that did
the bloody work. Williams, the first
man lynched, murdered his wife some

Did you ever stop to think what IN
digestion really meansP 1t means simp-
ly that your stomach is tired. If our
legs are tired, we ride. The horse and
the steam engine do the work. Why
not give your stomach ride; that is,
let something else do its work. Food
,AaR be digested outside of the body.
All plants contain digestive principles
which will do this. The Shaker Di-
gestive Cordial contains digestive prin-
ciples and is preparation designed to
rest the stomach. The Shakers them
selves have such abundant confidence
in it that they have placed 10 cent
sample bottles on the market, and it is
said that even so small quantity proves
beneficial in vast majority of cases

GOLD IN GEORGIA.
Big Revival of Mining Near DahlOnega-
Many Rich Veins Struck.


Many Rich Veins Struck.
DAHLONEGA, Ga, Jan. 21.-There is
revival of gold mining in this region,
fully 100 mines being in operation.
During the last two weeks the city has
been full of prospectors from Cripple
Creek, who are taking options on the
property. Surface ore is all that has
been previously worked, but recently,
in experiments here, Mr.. French, of
Pittsburg, has demonstrated that the
chlorination process is successful way
of treating sulphurate ore. Mr.. Betz,
a Philadelphia brewer, and Christian
Wahl, of Milwaukee, have obtained
very rich assays, the latter having had
ore to run as high as 81, 100 to the ton,
while Judge Murray, of Tennessee, who
is tunnelling mountain near here,
struck three rich veins which run from
$50 to $500. All this ore is easily mined.
The Creighton mines, southwest of
here, yielded $4,000 pennyweights last
year, while the owners of the Holly
Springs mine have taken out $40, 900 in
the last few months, using ten-stamp
mill. The whole region is excited,
Veins which are mere ribbons on the
surface run together at varying depths
and widen out to ten, so and 100 feet
with increasing richness as they 60

We are all of us today suffering
more or less from the sins of others
from the evil engendered by the COM
petitive system. The moral tone is
lowered, political life is corrupted and
leaders act from low personal motives.
In many instances they are not to be
relied on and intrusted with the desti-
MES of the nation. Neither are the
people in their escape from the house
of bondage able to act as directing con-
trolling forces. They need the moral
and economic training that will come
to them through a cooperative system
of industry and the formation that will
react upon and develop all the higher
qualities, for, just as competition re-
acts upon and lowers the moral tone oi
all, so cooperation will gradually ele'
vate all.

ONIONS
VS..
CIGARETTES
~

1t is safe proposition that the sem
sibilities of the young man who parts
his hair in the middle, wears razor
pointed shoes, and revels in the per-
petual occupation Of supersatuating
his faultless attire with the delicate
aroma of the much talked of and down
trampled only to rise again cigarette"
suffer, when he runs amuck Of onions
at the dinner table, a shock, which,
were his appetite less keen for olives,
suet pudding and squash, must hope
lessly incapacitate them for future
effectiveness.
This is a great mystery to US. On
ions are conceded to be wholesome,
appetizing and useful, while cigaretts
are legislated against, denounced by
the medical profession, clergy, and,
we'll, get the young mans, sister start
ed on the subject yourself.
Our motive, however, is to deal only
with facts.
Raw, fried, boiled or picked, we
admire and thoroughly believe in that
homely, yet strengthy, despised, yet
commended onion and would take of
our hat to the man who first planted
an onion set.
We carry full stock of cardamon
seed, cassia buds, peppermint and
wintergreen waters, sen sen or trix
and eat onions when we want to.
Like the Canods Thistle, English
Sparrow and measles the cigarette
does flourish.
My Cigarette Friend we carry full
supply of Musk, Jockey Club, White
Rose, Swiss Lilac, Wood Violet, Pean
D'Espagne and all the latest odors in
perfume and will make you discount
in quantity.

Three women have been elected
members of the House of Representa-
tives in the Colorado Legislature, and
a fourth has been chosen by the people
as state superintendent Of education.
The lady selected to fill the important
position is Professor Grace Patton.
Twelve years ago Professor Patton
graduated from the Colorado Agri-
cultural College with high honors, and
was at once given place as an in
structor in her alma mater This place
she filled for six years, when she be-
came professor of English and So
ciology, which position she has since
filled with great credit to herself and
profit to the college. She has thorough
ly identified herself with the interest
of the west, and Colorado claims her
as its very own, although she was born
in Pennsylvania. Professor Patton
says "In these days it is good thing
to be woman, but better still to be a
Colorado woman.

the bare necessities of life are in de-

trim sails accordingly. We hope the
danger or stress of the times is great
ly over estimated, though it seems
probable that it may be somewhat
severe upon the poorer classes, who
have not during the summer provided
a surplus to carry them through the
winter. 1t is the dictate of prudence,

At Reception hall yesterday morning
Hon III. d. Perky of Worcester lectured
to large and appreciative audience on
the proper food for the correct building
of the human structure. In his lecture he
said that exercise is as necessary as pure
food, that the human body is built from
the food we eat and the exercise we take,
and that the entire wheat is proper food
containing the fourteen elements neccs-
sary to nourish and sustain man. Miss
Haxworth of London, Eng, followed
with demonstration of how to cook the
entire wheat. Miss Haxworth will lee
ture again this afternoon at Reception
hall and on Saturday and the first three
days of next week at the Armory build
ing. All are cordially invited. Particu-
lars will be found in the advertisement

YOUR PALATE is YOUR SToM-

Thin people are thin because the food they
eat is not absorbed. Reasons, either wrong
food; or right food undigested.
Fat, oils and grease will not make any one
fat. This is because they are indigestible.
Thin people find it hard to digest their food.
Fatty foods make it still harder.
Have you ever noticed that almost with
out exception, thin, pale, dyspeptic, amaze
mic people have an aversion to fat? This
of itself proof enough that such foo DIS are
bad for them.
Let your palate tell you what to eat. Ma
ture makes vey few mistakes and we should

ARE BATTLEsHIPS SAFE?
Even England Is Afraid of Testing Their
Seaworrhiness Too Far.
(Boston Journal.)

OF Great Britain's tn irty odd battle
ships all but one are either in home
waters or with the fleet which is regu-
larly maintained in the placid Mediter-
ranean. The Centurion, of Il, 500 tons,
is the flagship on the China station,
but, like the Barheur, she was especially
constructed for distant service, giving
light draught so that she could pass
through the Suez canal, and equipped
with a battery of 10-inch and 4.7-inch
rifles instead Of the 12-inch and 6-inch
usually carried by vessels of her class,
while her armor was reduced to 9 and IL
instead of II and IS inches.
The sharpest gau ntlet which European
battleships are conpelled to run is in
the voyage across the treacherous Bay of
Biscay en- route to the Straits of Gibral-
tar. 1t is the custom to wait for calm
seas and light winds whenever practio-
able, but early in December of 1898 the
new first class British arnor-clad Resolu-
ton, just out of Plymouth, was caught
in q gals and suffered terrible expert
enee. Under the tremendous weight of
her armament the great ship began roll
grees, first to starboard and then to port.
Her captain declared that five degrees
more would carry her completely over.
The coal ran low, but for a long time the
officers in charge did not dare to change
the vessels course for fear that she would
capsize and founder. When at last an
abatement of the gale enabled the ship to
crawl back to Queenstown her upper
works were a wreck and her crew ex-
hauStcd by labor and anXiety
The Resolutions narrow es-
cape produced profound i'm
preston upon naval authorities
everywhere. That is one reason why they
have been so 10th to send large armor-
clads on long voyages in the stormy sea-
son. But with our great length of gale
swept coasts it is absolutely necessary
that our fighting ships should be able to
take the sea and keep it in all weathers.
The Navy Department is amply justified,
therefore, in ordering the Indiana and
Massachusetts, to join Admiral Bunce,
though it be time of year when no other
nation dreams of off shore manoeuvring.
