Mob Law in Virginia.

The governor of Virginia yesterday
made feeble attempt to save his
state from the disgrace of a resort to
mob law by preventing the lynching
of negro who was charged with the
murder of two white men. But his ex-
cellency seems TO have lacked the nee
essary backbone to carry out his good
intention, for he allowed the troops to
be withdrawn in the face of warning
as to what was certain to follow. As
result the negro was speedily taken
from Jail, hung to tree and his body
riddled with bullets by an infurlated
mob of good citizens" Then, to add
TO the horrors of the affair mob of
colored citizens assembled and lynch
ed white man who was with the
negro when the murders were com
mftted. There seems to be no doubt
that the victims of these mobs were
guilty and deserved their fate, but
that does not excuse the mobs nor re-
move the disgrace from the state.
These lynchings are object lessons in
crime, and they have the effect of de-
stroying popular respect for law,
which will some day bear fruit in
ways little expected by those who are
responsible for them.-Columbus Dis

one of Mariettas representative men

with credit to himself and honor to

The voters will resent these attacks

lying to the support of the Republican
ticket and the principles advocated by
the men whose names it bears.
The inevitable result, and the oppo-
Sition see it, will be the election of

Condemned Queens Visit.

New York, March 25.-ThL United
Irish American Societies met in this
cit ytonight and passed resolutions
condemning the proposed visit of the
Queen of England to Ireland.
while commenting the wise decis-
ion of the Irish people" says the reso-
luton, ''to refrain from any acts of
personal discourtesy or dsrespect to
an aged woman, who is used as a
screen to cover politica deceit and
trickery of the basest kind, we cor
daily approve their determination to
rebuke by a calm and dignified protest
that attempt by hybrid combination
of loyalists. deserters and tuft hunters
in Dublin to welcome in the name of
the Irish people the official represen-
tative Of English misrule, who herself
is a strenuous opponent of Ireland's

Credit Due to Robert Fulton.

New York, March 22.-The removal
next autumn of Robert Fulton's re-
mains from the Livingstone vault in
Trinity churchyard, where they lie un-
marked, to a plain sarcophagus suit
ably inscribed within the same pre-
cincts has revived the controversy
whether priority in inventing steam
navigation belong to Fulton, to John
Fitch, or to James Rumsey.
Reginald p. Bolton, of this city, who
has particularly studied the question,
today expressed the conclusion that
William Henry. OF Lancaster, Pa, Or
iglnated the idea OF steamboat pro-
pulsion in l775; that Fitch operated a
toy steamboat on the waters Of Collect
pond (site Of the old Tombs); that
both Rumsey and Fulton took their
ideas from him, but that to Fulton be-
long the credit of the first serious de-
yeIopment OF steam navigation.
Mr.. Bolton proposes tablet near
the site OF Collect pond to commem-
crate Fitch and suggests that Penn
sylvania should honor Henry. Steps
are being taken in Maryland to erect a
monument to Rumsey.

"The City of New York" "

There are many advance notices
handed in to the newspapers reported
to come from New York critics. Many
of these are genuine, while many of
them are not genuine. Some of them
tell half the truth. Here is one, how
ever, concerning The City of New
York" from that great paper, the New
York Herald, which is quoted abso-
lutely verbatim from its issue of Sept.
5th, 1899, wherein is said among other
things: The City of New York is a
rousing scenic drama, we'll staged and
we'll acted. There is net a dull NOM
ent in the play.

A Living Bomb.

New York. March 19.--lf you happen
to meet disreputable looking old
cart horse in New Rochelle working
with the men building the new tele-
phone line, turn out, avoid it, and you
shall escape alive. The horse Is load
ed with dynamite. 1t has been so for
four days. The men who labor with
the animal in the telephone construc-
tlon service have only now summoned
up nerve enough to tell about the in
cident.
The horse is called Ormonde, because
1t never lost race in its life. The an
imal is ugly, ill-tempered and as full
of gables as Queen Anne villas. 1t ate
luncheon last Friday out of a nose bag
in which knowing young man had
secreted two small sticks of dynamite
for safe-keeping. No one thought OF
the cartridges until after the last oats
was consumed. Then it was found
that Ormonde had consumed them.
Ormonde's life since that moment
has been one sweet song. The driver
| who used to wear out cart rungs and
! hot oaths on Ormonde's ribs never
speaks to ormonde now without say

Whether the average man knows It

If he happens 20 be a young man, all

how Jesus mould conduct newspaper,
according to his idea, H. J. F'eltus, ed
itor of the Bloomington Star, will this
week turn over his paper and office to
the devil. The action of Mr.. Feltus is
creating much comment in church and
society circles, and he is being criti-
cised on all sides. In an editorial yes
terday Mr.. Feltus says:
A good many newspaper readers
think they can run a paper better than
the editor. No doubt his Satanic Maj
esty thinks the same thing so next
week we propose to give him a trial by
turning over the Star to him for one
issue, and letting him run it according
to his own notion. In other words,
The Star for Saturday, March 81, will
be Devil of paper" and if you
want to know what kind of a paper
that is you must read that issue. Suit
able contributions for such a paper
briefly written, will be received and
considered, if sent in early in the
week. No church notices nor reading
or advertisements Of religious nature
will be received for next Saturdays

that both the city and county admis-
tration will receive severe shaking

nation was given out today by r. G.,

OF Louisville. He has just returned
from Washington, where he had a talk
with General Wheeler, with President
Mckinley and with Secretary Root.
While in the Philippines General

Federal, all three cavalry leaders o

si6le passes Congress, the three Gen
erals will be appointed to Brigadier
