anniversary Of their marriage,

"Ah, dear, l remember it well.
I shall never forget it. If l live

She sighed and nestled a lit

into his honest blue eyes. After
a moments silence she urged:

"Oh," he answered, 81 thought
you had guessed it. Surely it

SHfADVOCATED LYNCH1NG.
Kill "a Thousand a Week,
Saws Mrs. FELTON,, if Necessary
to Stop Attacks on White
Women.

Atlanta, Ga November I5.-
Mrs. w. n. FELTON,, whose ad
dress before the Georgia Agrl>
cultural Society is alleged to
have incited the negro Manly's S
editorial, which led to recent
race troubles in Wilmington,
furnished to day signed states
ment relative to the position she
took in the speech in question.
She discusses the recent Tlotlng
in the Carolinas, and as to lynch
ing declares that the negro race
must be extreminaled, if neces-
sary, to protect the white wo~
men of the South. Mrs. FELTON, S
statement is as follows:
"In reply to statements that
Manly's editorial was in reply
to my address before the Agrl
cultural Society at Iybee one
year ago last August, | here res
peat what was said at Tybee,
and .reaffirm it. Addressing
farmers, l said the crying need
OF women on farms is security
in their lives and homes. 1t is a
disgrace in a free country that
felonious assault is common, and
the best part OF Coos creation
are trem bling and afraid to be
left alone in their homes.
"With due respect to your
politics, | say that when you take
up the negro on election day to
control his vote, use liquor to
betuddle his understanding,
make him believe he is your
man and BROTHER and make
him familiar with dirty tricks IN
politics, so long will lynching
prevail, because the cause will
grow and Increase with every
election, and when there is not
enough religion in the pulpit to
organize a crusade against this
sin, nor justice in the court
house to punish the crime, nor
manhood enough in the nation
to put a shelterlng arm about
innocence and virtue, if it re-
quires lynching to protect Wo-
mans dealest possession, then |
say lynch thousand a week if
necessary.
The condition in North Car
oliua is the manifest result OF
corruption in politics, and un<
due coddling of North Carolina
negroes at the polls. 1t is un>
written law in Georgia that the
black man who attacks white
woman in her home or on the
highway and is Identified must
die without clergy, Judge or
Jury. 7 know that tens of thous>
ands Of honorable colored men
and women in Georgia will app
prove the virdict. The race will
be destroyed by the whites IN
self defense unless law and order
prevail in regard to the crime OF
felonious assault.

years, his funeral was preached
by the writer to a large gather

came to pay their respects to
one they loved and admired be
cause of his Christian graces.
Everybody had the utmost COM
hderce in Brother Pritchard as
a Christian gentleman. Hc was
a deacon OF Woodville Baptist
church and was his pastor for
six years, and during this term,
l found him ever ready TOR a
good word and work. | saw
him in his last sickness and he
was perfectly reconciled to death
SAYING to me. he knew in whom
he was believing. We feel for
him to die was his gain. He
leaves a sorrowing wife and five
children. May the God OF all
grace, comfort and sustain them
in this their day of sadness and
sorrow and in his own good time
bring them all together around
his throne, where sorrow is not
known. The Church sustains a
loss in the death of Brother
Pritchard, he had moved his
membership to Cor;nth as II
was nearer. May our Heavenly
Father sanctify this bereavment
to the good of our Church and
NAV it make better Christians o.
us all. We feel safe in saying
he was a good man. Servant o.

DETAILS OF THE FIGHT.

spoke in the highest terms of the conduct
of the men in his command, and both Col.
Wood and Lieutenant Colonel Roosevelt
were extremely gratified with the work
done by the Rough Riders on the first
occasion of their being under fire.
When it became evident that the Span
iards were giving up the fight searching
parties went through the thicket and tall
grass, picking up the dead and wounded.
The latter were carried to a field hospital
half mile to the rear. and all possible at
tention was given them, while preparation
was made to remove them to Juragua
Twelve dead Spaniards were found in the
bush. but the Americans made no special
efforts to ascertain the enemy's loss. 1t is
believed. however. that the bodies found
represented only small proportion of the
dead, and a conservative estimate is that
at least fifty Spaniards fell in the fight.
The sun was blazing down on the field
all the time the fight was in progress and
many troopers were overcome by the heat

by later on and the soldiers canteens were
filed from it.
Reinforcements were ordered forwarded
from Juragua, butSthe march was long
one and they did not arrive until the fight
was over. 1t was necessary to send a large
supply of provisions to the soldiers from
the base of the supplies at Juragua and
the only means of doing this was by pack
trains. which are necessarily slow. 1t is be-
lieved that the troops will be free from at
tack where they are and that the Span
iards will not attempt to repeat the play
they adopted of blocking the onward march
of the Americans in the direction of San
tiago 1t is thought they will make their
last stand at the city itself, trusting. that
with the assistance of the shore batteries
and the guns of the war ships in the har-
Dor they will be able to repel the Ameri-
can troops, force them back to the sea
coast and either capture them or drive them

At the close of most of the large Mid

generally 100 strong and invariably too hot
to drink Mr. Gladstone was accustomed to
pour it off into the saucer and take it more
Scottico. He always explained that this was
the original method of drinking tea. The
cup, or as it was always called In Scot
land 1.-The dish" was the reservoir out of
which part was poured into the saucer and
out of tumbler into a WineglaSS. On these
same occasions he was fond OF comment
ing upon the excellence of Scotch scenes
and oat cakes and had his own preferences
as to where the best could always be had.
l remember his telling me that an aunt of
his, an old lady of eighty-nine, fell down
stairs and hurt her leg rather severely. Her
nephew called to inquire for her, and she
sad that when the accident happened she
really thought she to be lame for
life" How his face lighted up as he laughed
over the delicious idea of an old lady who
had the fun use of her limbs for nearly
ninety years talking of being Lame for
life"

DENVER, Col, June 25.-The compli-
mentary trip around 1.-The loop given to-
day by the Denver women to the club Wom-
en- of the General Federation, was a sue
cess. Fully 1,500 excursienists were taken in
seven special trains to Idaho Springs, where
a luncheon was served by the eighty club
women in this mountain village. After
luncheon speeches were made by Mrs. Alice
Ives Breed, of Boston; Mrs. Edward Long
streth, of Philadelphia, and Mrs. Charles
Henrotin, of Chicago. This was followed
by free rides in mountain wagons around
the town. The trains proceeded to Silver
Plume, returning in the evening with the
happy crowd.
AS a part of this so-called Colorado
day. of the federation the stay-at-homes
held a meeting under the auspices of the
George Washington Memorial Association,
the objects Of which were presented by Mrs.
Ellen Richardson, of Boston. The evening
programme in the Broadway Theater
proved popular under the direction of Mrs.
Philip Moore, of ST. Louis, with Miss l. b.
Hill as local assistant chairman. 1t was
distinctive musical, with talks on Melo-
dies of the North American Indians" and
"Creole Songs by Misses Muldoon and
Dillingham;, Of Louisville, which were illus
trated by Miss Villa Whitney White, OF
Chicago.

cupy the pulpts In this city. Subjoined are

1t seems by no means certain the report
of the committee, naming Mrs. Lowe for
president and Mrs. Platt for vice president,
will be passed before the main body Mon
day morning without an animated conten-
ton. AS the matter was expected to nave
been kept a secret, its publication was not
only surprise, but the precipitator of re-
neWed wire-pulling. Friends of Mrs Breed
have come to the front with the declaration
that they will nominate her from the floor
and admirers of Mrs. Barnes, of Louisville
particularly among the Illinois delegation,
have made her name conspicuous for the

OFF JARAGUA, PROVINCE OF SAN
TIAGO DE CUBA, on board the Associated
Press dispatch boat Dauntless, June 20. via
Kingston, Jamaica, June "a, p. m.--Now
that the American land forces are threaten
ing the city of Santiago de Cuba, the topo-
graphic condition prevailing in that vicinity
becomes interesting. Baiquiri where the
first landing was made, and Jaragua, where
General Lawton's headquarters were last
night, are small coast towns in the throat
of narrow cuts through a range of little
hills fringing the southern coast. Baiquiri
is twelve miles east of Santiago and lara
qua is eight miles east of that city, but by
the coast line route, which runs behind the
hills, twice as far 1t is called here
wagon road, but it is only passable for
heavy two-wheeled carts, having six bull
locks yoked to them tandem fashion and
drawing a very small load. The pioneers
report that the trail is practicable for ar
tfllery and pack trains but it is unspeaka-
bly, bad even for walking, though it is rea-
sonably Level.
Our troops have now passed all the small
hills intervening between here and San
tiago The remaining twelve miles by road
is over a practically level country, with
ever. the road has been walled and in most
places overarched with impregnable jungle
growth, thorns and creepers smelling like
the interior of a fragrant, overheated con-
servatory, and picturesque with splashes Of
trcpic color in oleanders and other flowers,
but terrible for troops. For half mile,
near Demajayabo, small stream runs in
the road and the men have been compelled
to walk in water. incidentally the medical
advice about wet feet, night winds or per-
spiration-soaked. bodies and the necessity
of boiling drinking water. has already been
thrown to the winds Easy as the advice
sounds at home, it is almost impossible to
follow it here.
Several of the American officers who are
familiar with Arizona say they have MAYER
seen soldiers on the plains present such pic
lures of distress from the, heat, and they
add that the only wonder is that there are
SO few prostrations at present.
The American stature and apparent stam-
ina are remarkable in comparison with the
Cubans and Spaniards The co.ored soldiers
of the Twenty-fifth and Tenth Regiments
are uniformly large, and they seem black
giants in the jungle beside the tiny negro
Cuban guides.
