Considerable feeling has been stirred up
over the action of Mayor John r. Spillman,
of Warrenton, Va, in protesting to Gov
ernor Tyler, of his State, against permit
ting the Butler Colored Zouave Corps of
Washington bringing their guns to War
renton on September %, when there will
be celebration in honor of the thirty
sixth anniversary of the emancipation
proclamation issued by President Lincoln.
Mayor Spillman has been Joined in his
protest by County Judge C. w. White, of
Warrenton, who has written Governor Ty-
Ter that there are two white men in the
Warrenton jail charged with assault on a
colored woman and a colored man in the
Jail upon a similar charge, and he fears
! that If the Butler Zouaves are allowed TO
come to Warrenton and bring their guns
there may be serious trouble as the police
force of Warrenton consists Of one man,
and if the negroes were to become violent
there would be no one to stop them. 1t is
feared also that the sight of colored troops
in the town might encourage some of the
lawless cclored men who will attend the
celebration to attempt to wreak vengeance
on the white men confined in the Warren
ten jail.
w. T. Thompson, colored, of 1413 New
| Jersey Avenue, is captain of the Butler
Zuayes, and he, the members Of his COM
pany, about fifty in number and their
friends are very indignant over the action
OF Mayor Spillman, which they claim is
unwarranted.
THE Butler Zouaves were organized
| "and were named in honor of Gen. Ben
Butler. and have always been a law -abid-
ing body of men and would help quell any
riot before they would take part in one.
We have chartered a special train to go to
| Warrenton September % and will go
whether We carry our guns or not, for We
have already spent about $500 in making
preparations for the trip. While Governor
+! Tyler may prevent us from entering his
! State with guns he cannot keep us out
when We leave our guns behind. So far
as the guns We carry are concerned, the
I citizens of Virginia need have no fear OF
| them, for they are the old style Harper S
Ferry muskets of the Misunderstanding pat
tern and we never carry any ammunition.
! If we did we could all be killed before We
could load our guns. Our company is
more of a fraternal than a military body
| and We care for the sick members OF our
organization, bury the dead, and assist the
widow and orphan. and the excursion to
| Warrenton was gotten up to increase the
! funds Of the corps and will be carried out.
THE reports that the Zouayes might
! make trouble was started by some OF our
| jealous rivals in the surrounding Virginia
towns with hope that it might injure the
| Zouayes, but it will not hurt US in the
| least. We will explain the matter to Gov
ernor Tyler and endeayor to get permis-
| sion to carry our guns with us to War
| renton. as we need them to drill with, but
| for no other purpose | think we will get
! the desired permission, but whether we do
or not, the Zouaves will go to Warrentol
| September D. and that's the end OF it."

News has been received here of the final
disposition of Brother Fabrician, formerly
President of ST. Johns College, who was
ordered to Paris, by the Superior General
of the Christian Brothers, Gabrielle Ma
rie, for alleged insubordination. The de-
posed president is now member OF the
faculty, professor of English, at the mag
nificent boarding school conducted by the
order, located in Passy, a suburb OF Paris.
According to tine ethics Of the Brothers, he
has not been punished, as such changes
frequently occur.
St Johns College has not been injured
by the controversy relative to the Classics
between the Brothers of this country and
those of France. 1t has, rather, been great
ly benefited, securing many powerful
champions. The number of pupils has been
increased, necessitating the addition of two
new members to the faculty, and senior
class organized, for the undergraduates re-
turned bodily, which Brother Fabrician did
not intend to include in the curriculum.
This satisfactory commencement of the
scholastic term of 1899 is solely due to the
energy ZEAL and indefatigable labors of
Brother Abdas, the successor OF Brother
Fabrician.
Brother Denis, who has been connected
with the college for long period is now
seriously i'll with typhoid fever in st. Jo-
seph's Hospital Baltimore. He contracted
the disease several weeks ago. He is ex-
pected to soon recover, and return and re-
sumo his former duties.

erary Association resulted as follows:

dent, Richard r. Mann; secretary, En-

this wonderful machine?
Shortness of breath, buzzing in the
ears, dizziness, palpitation of the heart,

the machinery is undergoing a strain
which sooner or later will break it down.
What the lubricant is to the machine

the flow of pure and healthy blood.

BEaUrIFY YOUR HOME.

The average person, whether on his
farm home or in the town or city
makes the mistake OF his life when he
neglects to beautify and surround his
home with every attraction within his
rover and means. There is value as
we'll as beauty in these attractions.
When a man comes along seeking a
home farm well stocked with fruit
trees is a wonderful incentive in fixing
his attention as well as the price
which he is willing to pay. A house,
however beautiful in architecture and
design, standing alone on bare piece
Of ground, unsurrounded by forest,
shrubbery or fruit trees, fails to arouse
the interest Of the passerby or the
home-seeker. Addthese and what mar
or woman with heart and soul will not
pause to admire the scene and com
mend the wisdom OF the owner7
Again, when it is considered that i

bearing for profit or family consump
tion, home fairly stocked with va
riety OF fruit bearing trees is no meal
consideration aside from the actua
value which il imparts. When IL
considered that all these and othe
attractions can be had for mere bag
atelle in money and labor it is sur
prising that anyone would neglec
them. Even the mercenary man wi
find big profit in the investment.
When one is seeking home fC
himself and family and finds such
place already stocked with fruit bea
ing trees. he realizes the advantage
which it presents over home withor
such attractions, and he buys, for tn
very important reason that he wi
not have to wait for q long series {
years for trees planted by his own il
dustry and frugality to reward him.

WHY THE STAMP ACT WAS NE0Es-


SARY
The country now begins TO feel the
weight OF the decision OF the supreme
court Of the United States in aeIying
the eonstitutionality OF the income tax
law. The monthly deficits in the
treasury reports continue TO increase
Notwithstanding the barbarism known
as the stamp act, which this supreme
court decision made necessary to in
fiict upol. ,Ie people. The wrong upon
the rights Of American citizenship in
fiicted by this decision, by which the
burdens for the support Of the govern
ment were lifted from the wealth and
the corporations aud placed upon the
shoulders OF the toiling masses, is OF
too recent date and Of too practical
every day effect not to be a constant
reminder OF the iniquity. It's partial
ity for the rich and despotism for the
poor Is ever present as an incubus upon
the life and energies Of the millions
who toll and make the wealth for the
wealthy few who go untaxed.
In this connection it is net inappro,
pirate TO let Republican authority
speak upon the injustice Of this de
cision as well as the peril to the gov
ernment. Justice Brown, who dis.
scented from the majority OF the court,
warned his associates in the following
terse and prophetic sentence ;s'' fear
that in some hour OF national peril
this decision will rise up and paralyze
the arm Of the government"
Prophetic words How soon his pre-
iistion was verified. The war with

So far as indications can be accept
ed for the future everything points o
better prices for the better quality of
cotton this fall. This grows out of sew
eral facts, one of which is that the sea
son of 1898 was unfavorable for cot.
ton picking and a great deal OF the
yield was either injured by the frosts
or was OF an inferior grade, resulting
in Cutting the market with low and
unsaleabl quality. Good cotton picked
before the frosts will command high
and remunerative prices, while there
is little or no reason to be advanced
that the present low prices for the in
ferior quality will be any better than
they are now. Cotton growers should
make a note OF these facts and have
their cotton crop gathered in time and
see to IL that it is not injured in any
way from their own neglect.
