One must not "jeer tauntnsly" at

der penalty of being pulled though
that might be the worst that would
come of it, provided there were plenty
OF witnesses, as was shown by the out
come of the case of Washington Her

Clark's bank, wha was tried before
Judge Terrell in the police court yes
terday for exposing" himself and for
guffawing at an officer who undertook
to curtail his liberties as an American
citizen and confidential associate of a
United States senator.
At such times as the other officials of
the bank are too busy to attend to it
themselves, it becomes the duty of
Washington Hercules to scrub out.
Such time was last Sunday morning.
Mr.. Johnson was going about the I'M
pleasant duty with an air calculated to
convince observers that it was not be-
cause he had to that he was STOPPING
to such a mental task. but rather out
of accommodation to his brother Off
Gals. In order to give greater freedom
to his movements and expedite his
work, lest some of his society friends
should happen along before he had fin
ished he threw his suspenders off his
shoulders and in his shocking state of
dishabille actually had the audacty to
appear in the street.
Police Officer Sheehey was an ohser-
yer of the horrifying spectacle. Con-
sciouS of his duty to society," the ever
watchful officer issued stern COM
nnand to Mr.. Johnson to get within the
bank and suitably attire himself by
putting up his suspenders and cease
shocking the delicate sensibilities of the
people in the street.
Now, Mr.. Johnson did not seem to
think his appearance was so very de-
moralizing, especially in view of the
circumstances, and thought he should
be permitted to dress as becomes one
who bends to la Dor that is beneath him.
He had the effrOntery actually to laugh
right in the officers face, whereupon
he was escorted with little ceremony to
Jail by officer Sheehey. who did not
propose to brook such an affront to his
dignity as an officer of the law
Opposite Mr.. Johnson's name on the
police register was booked this charge:

tunately for Mr.. Johnson there were
many witnesses to his unseemly be-
haVior, among them some prominent
men of the city, These were all called
in his behalf at his hearing before
Judge Terrell yesterday. Without an
exception, they had the audacty to
testify that they had seen nothing in
Mr.. Johnson's appearance to warrant
the meddling interference of an officer.
At the conclusion of the taking of tes-
timony, Mr.. Johnson's lawyer was
about to read some law, when Judge
Terrell interrupted him with. Il don't

Washington, April 1.-THE incoming

troops and the insurgents. When Mac

ORDERED TO PARIS.
Colonel Henry's Secretary Mixed Up in
Mysterious Proceedings,

Paris, April 1.-THE suicide of Lieu
tenant Colonel Henry in the Fortress
of Mont Valerien, Paris, last August,
gave Locrimier, his secretary, such a
shock that his brain was affected and
he was placed on the retired list as a
hopeless invalid. Since that time. the
former sergeant major of artillery has
resided at San Quentin, in a chatelet
there, with his family and his father
ln-laW. He recovered his health some
what, but never spoke Of the Dreyfus
drama, which evidently preyed upon his
mind.
Last Saturday he received a telegram
not from the minister of war, as was
at first alleged, but an unsigned dis
patch ordering him to proceed to Paris
Immediately to place himself at the
disposal "qui a lie droit' Zone who has
the right to order you thus). Locri-
mler spent the rest Of Saturday pre-
pairing for the journey himself that
night.
1t is remarked as curious that
throughout the whole agitation Locri-
mier's name had never been mentioned.
There seems no doubt. however, that
he could have thrown some light upon
the affair, especially regarding the
mysterious death of Plckard, the detec-
tive, understood to have been employed
in the Dreyfus affair. who was found
hanging in his lodgings in circum-
stances which did not point conclusive
ly to suicide.
When Colonel Picquart was placed
on trial last September on charge of
revealing documents concerning the ma
tional defense, the public prosecutor
asked for an adjournment on the
ground that the minister of war had
decided to prosecute him for forgery
and using forged documents. NJ.
La Borie, his counsel Indignantly OPP
posed the adjournment, alleging that
it's object was to deliver Picquart into
the clutches of the military authorities.
The judges of the correctional tribunal
decided to grant the adjournment,
whereupon Picquart as he was about
to be led away to imprisonment, made
the following sensational statement:
This is perhaps the last time I shall
speak in public I shall sleep. perhaps
in the military prison of Cherche Midi.
Therefore, I wish to declare, if 7 find
the strangling cord of Leremercier
Pickard. or the razor of Colonel Henry.
it will be unfortunate. for 1 have no
idea of committing suicide"

DEWEY ON THE FIlIPINOS.
Their Character Will Slowly Improve
Under American Influences.

Under American Influences.
Washington, April 11.--Admiral Dewey
has written to the secretary of the navy
as follows respecting the capabilities of
the Fiipinos
Manila, Feb. %. 1s99-The good effects
politically of taking the natives into the
service of the government have not been
lost sight of and from the first large
numbers of them have been employed at
the Cavite naval station as mechanics and
laborers and in manning tugs and
launches. I regret to state that the latter
experiment has been only a partial sue
cess as nearly all of the mechanics and
laborers left on the outbreak of hostilties
between the United States and the Fill
pinos and are now believed to be in the
Filipino ranks. I am unable to state how
much of this was due to intimidation and
forcible mpressment into the army by the
so-called Filipino republic, but from the
statement of some few who returned and
from the fact that nearly all those who
live in the coal lighters and turrets, that
is under our immediate protection, have
remained, it would appear that intimida-
ton was a large factor in the disappear
ance of the workmen. 1t is well known
that the Aguinaldo government is a severe
military desDotism
although under the rule of the United
States the character of the natives will
certainly improve. sudden change is not
to be expected. A few of them might be
employed on transports and vessels of that
kind; indeed, the Filipino quartermasters
who have been serving on the Nanshang
and Zafiro since the purchases of these
vessels have always been satisfactory, but
because of their long association with
Americans they belong to a class apart
from the great majority"

SIX MINERS WERE WOUNDED,
Negroes Swarm the Streets and Mingle
With the Whites.

Pana, ILL.,, April 11.-Busness, which
was interrupted by rioting yesterday,
has been resumed to-day and the city,
under martial law, is quiet and order
ly. Miss Felix of the Harrison hotel,
who was shot while waiting on guests,
will probably die. All deputies have
been disarmed and soldiers alone con-
troll the city. The Penwell and Pana
mines are not in operation to-day and
the negro miners, feeling secure under
military protection, swarm the streets
and mingle freely with the white
strikers.
1t was found to-day that six miners

yesterdays fight. They were: Rufus
Finley, colored; Clint Rowland, cololed;
Louis Whitfield, colored; c. H. Dorsey,
cOlnred; Martin Whitman, white; AL

The coroner's jury on the death of
Frank Coburn reached a verdict this
afternoon that the deceased came to
his death from a gunshot wound at
the hands of parties unknown and that
the bullet was from a gun of large cal
iber. The inquest on Haveier Lecoq
began at o'clock this afternoon.

Tanner and Sheriff Downey eff Chris
tan county and other prominent Off
GERS and citizens of Pana, including
Chief of Police Kelly, City Attorney ].
II. Morgan. S. E. Smith of the Pana
Gazette and Jacob Swallow of the Pana
Palladium, in regard to the situation in
that city. A heated controversy arose
between the governor and Mr. Smith
over the question of removing the
troops from Pana, as the result of
which Mr. Smith was ordered to leave
the room. Governor Tanner ask
Sheriff DoWney why he left Pana as
he did, to take a prisoner to Taylorville.
when he had 200 armed deputies in
Pana The sheriff acknowledged that
many of his special deputies were as
anxious as anybody to kill the prisoner.
To this the governor said:
You fell down when you left the

( without a commander. I do not thinll

admitted it was his purpose, with the
