Cause OF Negro Riots
* x at .Nese, Orleans.

The recent reign of mob rule and
lawlessness in New Orleans was the
outgrowth of the murder of Cant. Day
and Patrolman Lamb by negro The
mob, which assembled in the French
market. was composed OF several
thousand armed men, who attacked
and beat all negroes who appeared in
the streets. Not since the Iynehing
Of the Italians about nine years ago
has New Orleans witnessed the scenes
OF excitement that have been seen
there lately.
The Infatuated mob, composed
largely of the hoodlums OF the city,
took possession of the streets early
in the evening. The police depart
ment was unable to dispense the riot
ers and before they scattered of their
own accord early next morning one
negro had been killed, six others IA
tally injured and a score of persons.
both white and black, male and fe-
male, had received more or less ser1-
GUS injuries as result of the riot.
After the first demonstration on the
streets had subsidized all of the mem
bers of the first mob, together with
many others bent upon the murder of
negroes, assembled at Lee circle and
the report was sent out that the gang
was preparing to march on the par
ish prison to demand the negro pris-
oner-Pferce-who was with Robert
Charles, the negro who murdered tbe
two policemen.
This threat caused Acting Mayor
Mehle to call upon citizens to unite
with the police force to prevent the
mob carrying out its lawless inten-
tons, and the entire police force. au-
gumented by many of the most
prominent men of the city surrounded
the prison and prepared to repulse
any attempt on the part of the mob
to force the jailer to deliver the pris-

WRONG IMPRESSIONS MADE.
Elves Ruined by Influence of Theatrical
PLAYS.


A young clerk, holding an excellent
position in a London bank. visited
many years ago a performance of a
well-known play, in which the hero
makes a huge fortune out of the sill
yer mines of Mexico, says an exchange.
Excellent as is the moral of this mag
nificent play, its effect on the career
of this youthful clerk was disastrous,
for, being fired by an ambition to
emulate the doings of the hero" who
went abroad and secured a mighty for
tune, he actually threw up his berth
at the bank and sailed for the silver
mines. Fortune was against him from
the first. His career at the mines was
record of constant toll, accompanied
by constant failure, and eventually he
blew out his brains, leaving a note
in which he declared that the witness.
ing of the play in question had been
the cause of his quitting England, and
| that he bitterly regretted the day
when he had turned his steps toward
the theater. In another play there is
a certain foolish woman, who, being
unable to live agreeably with her hus
band. walks out of his home and re
turns no more. A young lady residing
in a western London suburb, who had
witnessed this piece, and who fancieG
that her own position was akin to that
of the heroine of the said play, de-.
cided to follow the latter's example
and, sure enough, quilted the marital
roof several days later. Her husband
urged her to return to him, but she
steadfastly refused, and the upshot OF
the matter was that she drifted into
poverty, and, being unable to support
herself by her own efforts, sought
refuge in death. The production of a
plss of the Jack Sheppard" order in
Paris many years ago was the cause OF
respectable bridesmaids son taking
to life of crime. Fired by the feats
of the stage malefactor, he began hos
tilities by pilfering from his fathers
till, and he followed up these depre-
dations by breaking into bank on the
outskirts of Paris. When placed in
the dock he struck a theatrical atti-
tnde, and made short speech which
distinctly recalled some of the lines
from the play which had made Sc
great an impression upon him. Doubt
less his vicious tendencies had been
latent up to the time when he visited
the theater, but the play certainly
served to call them forth and set them
in action.

Belle Oates. or Star Oliver, as she
has often been called, who a few days
ago escaped from a posse of Texas
sheriffs by boldly plunging her horse
into the Rio Grande and guiding him
through a flood of water to the oppo-
Eite shore. is one of the most daring
and successful criminals that ever OPP
Grated on the southern border She
has been called the worlds worst wom-
an criminal. She has stolen enough
cattle in Old Mexico to stock the big
gest ranch in Texas, and she has pass

Grande while custom house officers
were asleep.
This remarkable woman began her
remarkable career of crime by marry
ing man of IS for his money when
she was only II. They went to New
York on their bridal tour. and the old
man afterwards said that the trip cost
him $4,000. As soon as they return
ed to Mexico she left the old man and
eloped with one of his cowboys to Mex
leo, having first robbed her spouse of
every cent OF ready money he possess
ed, amounting to $4,000 In less than
a month she was in the mad whirl with
the gayest set in the Mexican capital
and her cowboy lover was boiling over
with jealous rage.
One morning the cowboy was found
dead In his bed. with a sharp stiletto
sticking in his head Belle Oates had
during the night escaped through the
gates disguised as rural guard mount
ed on a fine horse.
Belle next turned up in Jail in one of
the border counties of Texas, charged
with highway robbery. She escaped
from Jail by inducing her jailor to fall
in love with her and fleeing VITA him
to Los Angeles, Cal, where the two
were arrested while occupying a box
in theater. While they were waiting
for requisitlon papers the Texan, after
leaving instructions to have all his

generally eight to ten days, and 1t was
on one of my last trips, about four
years ago. that | discovered on the
northeast side of the divide, between
the waters of the Bull run and tho
Hood river. this bunch of giant trees.
The like ! never saw before or since.
Before I saw these giants had meas
ured from time to time some trees at
home which girdled 29 to 80 feet
around about three feet from the base,
but these trees could not be compared
at all with the big trees l found In
the mountains. They would appear as
mere sticks against those giants.
honestly believe that those giants will
girdle 60 to 80 feet around near the
base. and that they are $50 to 400 feet
high. They stand on kind of fiat or
bottom and this fat Is we'll protected
from discovery, as far as | could per-
ceive, by steep and high bluffs not only
from the Hood river side up, but from
the main water divide down. These
big trees are, in nay mind, somewhere
near the north line OF the National
park, but 1t is doubtful If they are in
1t. There are two species of the giant
trees. One species has a yellowish and
not very rough bark, Is straight and
round as a candle, has no limbs to an
immense height, and has a nice, won
derful crown. The father of this very
aristocratic species in our mountains
is surely the emperor of our forest.
People must not think that this tree
is the so-called noble fir" because
know not only the noble fir" but
many other mountain trees very well.
Nor must they think that this species
is one of the common trees in the
mountains. | cannot say how many
such giants there are. There may be
hundreds, there may be thousands. On
our way hcme one of my companions
was drowned in the Bull run, and
therefore | never went to the noun
tains again. but have always had a de-
sire TO go and investigate further
about those big trees. Cedar Is the
second species Of the big trees. They
rival in size and grandeur the first spe-
cies. But the most wonderful thing
about them seems to be that they are,
In spite of their immense diameter and
age. seemingly sound and hard, through
