THE DEATH OF THE WORLD.
Ecientfsts Fail to Agree as to How
the End Will Come

Scfentists Fail to Agree as to How
the End Will Come.
Scientists seem to agree that the
earth some day is to be destroyed by a
gigantic cataclysm, but fail to agree
upon the chow" DR.. Henry Smith
Williams, in writing in Harper's
Monthly on "Some Unsolved Scientific
Problems" says:
eff so much uncertainty attends
these fundamental questions as to the
earth's past and present, it is not
strange that open problems as to her
future are still more numerous. We
have seen how, according to Professor
Darwin's computations, the moon
threatens to come back to earth with
destructive force some day. Yet Pro
fessor Darwin himself urges that there
are elments of fallibility in the data
involved that rob the computation Of
all certainty.
"Much the same thing is true of per-
haps all the estimates that have been
made as to the earth's ultimate fate.
Thus it has been suggested that, even
should the suns heat not forsake us,
our day will become month long and
then year long; that all the water of
the globe must ultimately filter into it's
depths and all the air fly off into
space, leaving our earth as dry and as
devoid of atmosphere as the moon, and,
finally, that ether friction, if it exists,
or, in default Of that, meteoric friction,
must ultimately bring the earth back
to the sun.
"But in all these representations
there are possible compromising factors
that vitiate the estimates and leave
the exact results in doubt. The last
word of the cosmic science Of our CEN
fury is prophecy of evil-if annihila-
ton be an evil. But it is left for the
science Of another generation to point /
out more clearly the exact terms in
which the prophecy is most likely to
be fulfilled"

Lawless MObs In New Orleans vi
ciously Attack Every Negro
They Can Find.
Police Apparently Powerless to
Maintain Order and Protect
ColOred Citizens.
One Man Killed and Three Fa-
tally and Fourteen Seri-
Ously Wounded.
Mayor Appeals to the Governor
for Aid and Troops Will
Be Called Out.

NEW ORLEANS, July 27.-After be-
ing in the hands of lawless mobs for
several hours, with the police powerless
to maintain order, New Orleans at day
break again assumed peaceful aspect
and mob violence apparently had
ceased, after one negro had been killed,
three fatally and fourteen, negroes and
whites, seriously wounded.
The mob spent itself about s O'Clock,
when white baker was shot in the
leg while crowd Of rioters were chas-
ing a gang Of negroes. The mayor, the
police and citizens have arranged to
take precautions against a recurrence
of the disorder. The mob was COM
posed of boys and hoodlums and was
without leader. The rioting grew
out of the intense feeling engendered
by the murder on Monday night of
Captain Day and Patrolman Lamb and
the wounding of Officer Mora by col
ored desperate, Robert Charles. Lead
ing citizens express great regret over
the disturbances and declare that the
mob in nowise represented the better
class of citizens.
Work on the levee, where negro
labor is largely employed, has been sus-
pended. The big grocery and produce
houses are also practically doing
nothing, because they cannot get their
negro drivers to risk their lives.
Mayor Capdevielle has communicated
with Governor Heard, who will imme-
diately call out the militia to preserve
order in the city.
Morris tribune., 1900-07-28

the mob divided one section going
down town and the other starting back
up town. The latter crowd started for
she new basin, in the vicinity Of the
Illinois Central depot, which Is pop.
ular rendezvous for negroes. Before
starting they INDUCED in a littleS pistol
play and wounded Oswald Mcmahon, a
l2-year-old boy, in the leg. On the
way up they went through the Poydras
market and found negro Waterman,
George Morris, whom they proceeded
to chase through tie market, shooting
him as he ran. When he fell with two
shots in the back, one of the young
tends
Stabbed Him to Finish Him,
and nearly did SO. John Deeds, a
white man, was shot during the indis-
crlminate shooting in the Poydras mar
ket. They searched the vicinity of the
basin thoroughly and failing to find
any one, walked out toward Franklin
street, where they passed a negro seated
in front of a barroom, whom they
promptly shot. He was Dan White, a
roustabout, and got a bullet in his
right wrist.
About o'clock they moved on down
to Canal street and at the corner Of
Rampant started to break into another
second hand store, but a patrol wagon
full OF police camS up and they desist-
ed. They stood there for half an hour,
and then gradually melted away.
The down town mob, however, did
terrible execution and kept up it's
fendish work until half past 8 o'clock.
A notorious character took the lead and
they headed for the neighborhood of
franklin and Custom House street.
They found no negroes and were going
down Where street toward some negro
novels, when they saw negro in
crowded Where street car. They halted
the car, pulled the trolley off, ordered
about 20 passengers gut and
II" Then Murdered the Black.
He was dragged out and Instantly
killed. The mob then moved out to the
vicinity of the old basin on Toulouse
street and terrorized that neighborhood,
but evidently found no negroes. Then
they went down as far as Kelerec and
Dauphine streets, where they found an
old negro rs years of age, named Bap-
list Flo, whom they beat and shot
almost to death.
Coming up town again they headed
for the French Market and met an I'M
known negro on Decatur, between St.
Philip and Ursoines, whom they at
once beat into insensibility and left for
dead. He was discovered an hour later
and died shortly after. They found
another negro in the Market and
promptly put an end to his existence.
He is not known. They located the
porter of the Louisville and Nashville
paycar and chased him up the levee.
He ran into the customhouse, where he
was protected by the night Waterman
at the point of Winchester. The
crowd sulked around for awhile and
then gradually dispersed.

Freezing Weather in July.

Would cause great discomfort and
loss, but fortunately it is seldom
known. A vast amount of misery is
caused at this season, however, by
impoverished blood, poor appetite,
and general debility. These eondi-
tons may be remedied by enriching
the blood and toning the stomach
with Hoods Sarsaparilla. This
medicine seems to put new life into
the whole physical system, simply
because of its wonderful power to
purify, enrich and vitalize the blood,
create an appetite and iuvigorate the
digestive functions. We advise you
to get bottle and try it if you are
not feeling just right. 1t will do you
more good than six weeks vacation.
It is the best medicine money can
buy.
Morris tribune., 1900-07-28

After many intricate experiments,
scientists haye discovered methods
for obtaining all the natural digest
ants. These have been combined
in the proportion found in the human
body and united with substances that
build up the digestive organ, making
compound called Kodol Dyspepsia
Cure. 1t digests what you eat and
allows all dyspeptics to eat plenty of
nourishing food while the stomach
troubles are being rapidly cured by
the medicinal agents it contains. 1t is
pleasant to take and will give quick
relief. & Johnson.

MINNEAPOLIS, July a7.-The admin

caused the death of Joseph La Porte.
He became involved in an alteration
with Morris Hayes, an ex-soldier, while
eating supper at their clearinghouse
and dared Hayes to fight. The two
angry men left the supper table and at
once started fighting in the little hotel
office. Hayes struck La Porte severe
blow on the left jaw, breaking the jaw
and sending him to the floor. Others
rushed to his assistance and found that
La Porte was dead. Hayes walked to

A NIGHT OF TERROR.

Negro Citizens Attacked and Beaten
Wherever Found.
New ORLEANS, July 27.-The anti.
negro riot which broke out during the
early evening continued until $3.50 a.
m. Mobs ran riot through the city on
a hunt for negroes and those unfortun-
ates who fell into their grasp were
either killed or so badly wounded that
they were left for dead. After the
mobs got started the negroes became
terrorized and took shelter in their
homes and the outhouses of white peo-
pie who protected them, SO it was only
the unsuspecting and inoffensive ne
groes who were the victims.
The police were powerless AS fast
as they apparently dispersed a crowd
in one section it reformed and moved
to some other point to continue it's
develish work.
The mobs were composed almost en-
tirely of boys under 81 years of age,
and they had no leaders, but acted on a
common impulse. The movement
| started from gathering of men at the
Lee statue corner of st. Charles avenue
and Howard street. Being ordered to
dispense, the crowd moved up St.
Charles street, gathering force as it
moved, and gradually became

1t was not uutil after they had stopped

scene Of the assassination Of Captain
Day and Officer Lamb, that they lis

from Kenner, and then started out to
waylay the negroes. Most of the col
ored population had taken warning
from the excitement of the night before
and kept indoors, but there was some
returning to their homes from work,
and it was one of these who was the
first victim. He was in crowded
Henry Clay avenue car near the square
and when the mob saw him they rushed
for the car and dragged him out, firing
one shot in the Car. He turned out to
