This Is the recent decision OF one of
the prominent societies OF the wofla, but
the exact day has not yet been liked

thousands OF others who not only believe,
but know that Hostetter's Stomach Bit

or liver and kidney troubles A fair trial
will certainly convince you OF its value.

ham and Gadsden, ordered to Hunts
vile by Gov. Sanford yesterday. all eff
forts to lynch Berry Hail. a white
schoolmaster. for an alleged assault on
Cora Pritchett, a thirteen-year-old

parent. but the Jail is closely guarded
by the two companies of soldiers. At
the close of Halls preliminary trial a
mob burst in the door Of the court
room. secured Hall without trouble and
led him into the courthouse yard for
the evident purpose of hanging him. A
rope was thrown over the limb OF a
tree, but no n would volunteer to
tie the rope around the victims neck,
and at the critical time the deputy
sheriff walked up and with no resis-
lance whatever on the part Of the mob
led the prisoner to jail.

it Is the desire Of the interior de-
partment to give the old soldiers
preference in the opening Of the Kiowa
and Comanche reservation. a new plan
from any heretofore adopted must be
evolved In former openings the
preference given in the laws has been
absolutely worthless Under the law
three plans for initiating q right to
quarter section of land are provided,
viz: settlement a homestead filing
and filing by agent or old soldiers.
Every good claim has in former land
openings been settled upon within
two hours after the land offices were
opened to receive filings. Ten filings
an hour has been about the record
made by the offices, so that If those
waiting . FIR turn at the land Office
to initiate their rights to land by
filing thereon should elect the most
remote claims. only twenty persons
could secure claims in that manner.
The attorneys or agents Of the old
soldiers must take their chances with
those who file in person It is there
fore plain that preference in this case
is fiction pure and simple.

Englands American Scout.

London Chronicle.
 Mention was made by our correspon- dent of the fact that Major Burnham, the famous scout, risked his life in an attempt to warn General Broadwood's column when it was walking into the trap at Sanna's Post so skillfully laid by the Boers. It may be remembered that at the time Major Burnham was a prisoner in the hands of De Wet, and his keen eye quickly saw that un- less Broadwood's force could be warn ed it was lost beyond redemption. Ac- cordingly-and this fact, we believe, has not yet been made public-Major Burnham. at the risk of his life. con- trived to mount an ambulance wagon and made signals that were seen by those at the head of Broadwood's col umn. Apparently, however. our men had lulled themselves into such a false security that the signalling failed of its effect. We believe that the signals were perfectly understood, and the sim gular explanation was given by those who read them that they thought the signals were a Boer trap. That Is to say, believing that the signals were made by Boer. using. apparently, the British code. they nevertheless blund- cred on into the pitfall which had been prepared for them.
  we believe. hitherto unpublished-of Major Burnham's escape from the Boers after Sanna's Post. He had been placed in a bullock wagon at the head of the Boer column but by series Of ingenious artifices he contrived to get placed in the last of the long line of wagons, whence he had an uninter- rupted view of the Boer rearguard. Waiting until nightfall, and watching L t.~ k% over the front of the wagon just be- hind the tails of the last two oxen. and remained flat on the ground until the wagon had passed over him. when he swiftly and stealthi1y crawled away and lay hid in a hollow until the Boer rearguard had passed. ultimately mak- ing his way back to the British lines. As an evidence of Major Burnham's scouting qualities. 1t may be stated that he was within the Boer lines, un- known and unsuspected, no less than thirty-four times.

It is His Custom.

Birmingham News.
 A Lincoln dispatch says that in the opinion of MT. Bryan, the Wall Street panic is evidence of the failure of the gold standard. Just how the country s money standard can be held responsi- ble for a fight between large interests for control of certain property and the wild speculation consequent upon such a contest is not clear. But it Is the custom of MT. Bryan to rise up and proclaim the failure of the gold stand ard every time anything ugly happens, and he has apparently adapted hlmseir f, this habit so thoroughly that he can not do otherwise.
