At Urbana, Ohio, last week, a man
assaulted a woman, "a arrested and.
sentenced to twenty years in the peni-
tensiary, A mob gathered to lynch
the fellow, the mayor and sheriff called
out the militia, a fight ensued, two
men were killed and a dozen wounded
the mayor dismissed the militia, ' the
mob secured the prisoner and hung
him, and the sheriff was forced to flee
from the town. Query What was
gained by this mob violence? How
long viii it be before intelligent men
in civilized communities will learn to
respect the law? The man had been
sent to the penitentiary for twenty
years, practically for life, but they
mlust shed blood to appease their anger.
This is no better than the acts of the
rrnnitive man, and shows sad lack
sf respect fay the law.

desist from all practice and play on Sunday as it
is exspressly forbidden by the Statutes OF our

Even Ceylon has an agricultural col
lege, and as a result vine-growing has
been introduced into that isle. The
Indian Agriculturist says: Experiments
in viticulture in Ceylon have been turn.
ing out very satisfactorily, and it is
within the range Of possibility that
grape-growing and wine-making may
be established as a supplementary in
dustry to tea-planting in that ia
vored isle. About a year ago a winery
was erected in the School of Agricul-
ture premises, Colombo, and placed
under the care of Sigor Zanetti,
Only few months elapsed from the
planting of the vines to their showing
signs of bearing, and an excellent yield
of grapes resulted. There has been,
however, a little hitch between the
Signor and the government about al
lowing additional expenditure, and for
the time being the experiment ap-
pears to be IN danger of abandonment.
1t is verv unlikely that the government
will allow the experiments to fall
through. big with promise as they un-
doubtedly are. and we may expect to
hear by later mail of an adjustment of
differences and Of further experiment.
Already a Sinbalese capitalist, who has
watched the partial development and
success OF the agricultural school vine
yard, and Is assuerd of the ulti-
mate success Of viticulture in the
island. has started vineyard Oh his
own account. ...-... -.
