PUBLISHERS IN CONVENTION.


New York, Aug. 23.-The establish
ment of publishers clearing house
was discussed at yesterdays session
af the convention of the National As
s0ciation of News Dealers, Book
sellers and Stationers. The conven-
tion urged the increase of the price
of the penny morning newspapers on
the ground that it was impossible for
the dealers to make a living out Of
morning newspapers which they have
to buy at go cents a hundred and sell
at a cent each. The publishers of the
New York city morning papers were
asked by resolution, introduced by
Mr.. May, of Pawtucket, R. l., to in
crease their retail price to two cents
and to furnish the papers to the deal
ers at $1.1O a hundred. The publishers
of the evening newspapers were urged
to omit publication on the Fourth OF
July. Thanksgiving day, Christmas
and New Years day. 1t was also de-
cided to request that penny news
papers be made non-returnable and
that they be sold at so cents a hum
dred.

An AerOnsut's Miahap,

New York, Aug. 23.-Benjamin Ben
jamin, an aeronaut, fell from his bal
loon while making an ascension yes
terday at the Hoboken, N. j., Schuet-
zen park. Failure Of the parachute
to work caused the accident. Ben
iamin fell possibly 300 feet into the
Hackensack meadows and this prob
ably saved his life, as he landed in
mud and water, sinking up to his
neck. A boatman rescued him. His
injuries arose not only from shock
of the fall, but from the onslaught
Of myriads of mosquitoes which at
tackled him as he was stuck in the
mud and whose stings made his fea-
lures unrecognizable.

8unn0wsr Btats.


Topeka, Kan, Aug. 22.-secretary
F. D. Coburn, Of the state board Of
agriculture, has prepared the follow.
ing statement in regard to the popu-
lation of the cities Of Kansas, with
their increase or decrease during the
past year. According to compilation
of the assessors and county clerks
official returns for 1901, there are Ill
cities and towns in Kansas having 1000
inhabitants or more. Seventy-threc
municipalities belonging to such a
list have gained l9,343, Kansas City
distancing all Others with an in
crease OF 5,761, while 81 others lost
S,160, and one made no return. Lyn-

THE INSULAR CASES.
BANKRUPTCY Law Unsatisfactory


Denver, COL, Aug. 23.-Something
Of sensation was occasioned at yes
terday's session of the American Bar
association by the address of Con-
gressman Charles E. Littlefeld, OF
Maine, on "The Insular Cases." Mr..
Littlefeld's address drew forth loud
and long continued applause and a
motion was made to tender him q
vote of thanks for 1t, but this was
decided out Of order by the presi-
dent on the ground that the speaker
is a member of the association. The
view of the mover was not, however,
universal with the members, for just
before recess was taken Hon. Adolph
Moses, Of Chicago, made vigorous
protest against what he characterized
ian unwarranted attack upon the su-
preme court Of the United States" /"
His remarks were cut short by a
point of order, but his words were
greeted with applause in which con-
siderable minority Of the convention
joined.
Mr.. Littlcfeld said: considered in
the manner in which the results were
reached, the incongruity of the re-
suits and the variety of inconsistent
views expressed by the different men,
bers of the court are without paral-
lei in our judicial history"
At the conclusion of Mr.. Littlefeld's
address reports of standing commit
tees were submitted without being
read. The commercial law committee
in It's report expresses dissatisfaction
with the new bankrupt law and de-
clares that it has made strong efforts
to secure amendments, but in vain.
The committee on memorial from
the st. Louis exposition reported reso-
mtions to cooperate with the authori-
ties having in charge the celebra-
ton of the centennial of the purchase
by the United States from France
of the Louisiana territory in bring
ing about the holding of a universal
congress of lawyers and iurists at st.
Louis in 1908.

portrait Of herself made but a few years

mirror realize similar change.
Behind this change in form and Tea
tzre Is always disease, and generally dis
ease which affects the wonianly organ
ism. The backache and bearing-dowil
pains put heavy strain on the nervous
system. There Is loss Of sleep, lack OF
appetite, and, as natural result, loss OF
strength and flesh.

IOWA DEMOCRATS.
They Nominate State Ticket and Thor
Platform Reahlrms the National One
Adopted at Kansas City.

Des Moines, Ia, Aug. 22.-Democrats
Of Iowa in state convention yesterday
nominated the following ticket: Gov
ernor, Thomas J. Phillips, of Ottum-
wa; lieutenant governor, G. L. Fergu-
son, Of Logan; judge of the supreme
court, John Shortley, of Dallas couil-
ty; superintendent Of schools, W. P.
johnson, of Carroll; railroad commits
sioner, A. c. Brice, of Bedford. The
platform reafiirms the national plat
form adopted in 1900 at Kansas City
and contains plank on state issues
demanding reform in taxation laws,
repeal Of the mulct liquor law and en-
nctment of local option law. The
chief contest in the convention was
on the adoption of the platform.
The struggle began in the district
caucus held before the convention as
sembled in the morning. The anti
silver forces succeeded in naming Il
majority of the committee on resolu-
tions. There was a protracted ses-
sion Of the committee and in the
afternoon a majority and two mi
nority reports were submitted to the
convention. The majority report ig-
nored national issues entirely, con-
fining itself exclusively to state mat
ters. The first minority report
agreed with the majority report, ex-
cept in a preamble which reatfirmed
the Kansas City platform. The second
minority report differed from each
of the others in its preamble only,
which set out that state issues were
paramount in this campaign. The
minority report reafIirming the Kan
sas City platform was adopted on the
call of the roll by counties amid much
confusion by 669K to 55OKa.

Mrs. Chance died short time after
her father and before she had re-

A MOB FRUSTRATED.
IA Negro Tried and Sentenced to
Hang for Rape. q
ANGRY IEy TRY TO Get The FIEND.
In the Battle One Man II Killed and An
other Probably Fatally Wounded
Appeal by the Father Of the
Girl Outraged.

Asheville, Ala, Aug. 23.-Walter
Blankenship was killed and Arthur
Blankenship probably fatally wound
ed in battle yesterday to save the
negro, Jim Brown, from the venge-
ance of mob after he had been tried
and sentenced to be hanged on Sep
tember 20 for rape. The Blanken-
ships were brothers and, it Is said,
have been in town since Monday try
ing to stir up the trouble. Walter
died within two hours after being
shot and Arthur is in a precarious
condition.
The attempt Of the mob to gain
possession of the negro followed one
of the swiftest and fairest trials ever
witnessed The judge and court Off
cials were on the defensive to sup
press the rising singer of the crowd
as detail after detail of the crime
was told by the witnesses for the
state. There was no evidence for the
defense. As Brown said afterward
in his confession there was nothing
the witnesses he had summoned
could say in his behalf.
The clash with the sheriff came in
half an hour after Judge Pelham had
pronounced the sentence. By ruse
the court room was cleared of half OF
its angry occupants. The remaining
half was surly and bent on mischief.
At the request of Judge Pelham, ].
L. Garrett, the father of the girl out
ragged by Brown, mounted u table
and spoke, counseling peace. In con-
Guiding his appeal he said: "If you
have any respect for my feelings, II
! can have any weight in your hearts,
let me urge you as good citizens, to
90 home and obey the law and will
never cease to thank you from the
bottom of my heart
After some difficulty the court room
was cleared. Sheriff North thought
It unwlse to attempt to take Brown
TO the Jail, few blocks away, for
the crowd was rapidly increasing
around the front OF the courthouse.
Twcnty-eight deputies armed with
pistols and shotguns were stationed
in the front hall and at the windows
Of the court room. The first sign Of
an outbreak came when one man
from the outside with pistol in his
hand started to mount the stairway.
He was followed by two or three
others. Several shots were exchanged
and the mob leaders retreated to the
outside when two members began
firing into the windows. Arthur
Blankenship was hit first and his
brother was shot while emptying his
revolver in the direction of the win
dows above.
A hard rain began falling. The
bodies OF the wounded were removed
and the crowd scattered about in
front of the stores across the street.
The officers took advantage of this
lull and spirited the negro away IN
charge Of two special deputies. He
was put safely aboard freight train
for birmingham.
The crime for which Brown will
hang was committed on May Z, near
springville, within a quarter mnc VI
the house Of the CARROTS. Brown
left the vicinity at once, first going
to Birmingham, then to Admission and
Atlanta and finally to Charleston, 5.
c., where he was captured. "
