QUESTIONS Of TIE HOUR.
Rev. Robert S. Macarthur Discusses
the Subject of Lynching
in New York.
THOUGHTFUL MEN DEEPLY DEPLORE IT.
The whole Tendency of the Practice
Is Toward Brutality and Bnrbar-
ism-Tbe Present Prosperity of
the Nation and the strike Cues
ton Touched Upon.

New York, Sept. 2.-ln his sermon
il the Calvary BAPTIST church, Sun
day night, Rev. Robert ). Macarthur,
who had just returned from his vaca-
ton, spoke of the sentiment of the
people he had met on his journey re-
gaIding lynching.
"Thoughtfu! men, north and south"
said he, bitterly deplore the occa-
sional rule of mob law. This is not a
sectional question. Ohio and Kansas
have been disgraced as much as any
southern state.
Tends to Brutality and Bnrbnrism.
THE whole tendency of lynching is
toward brutality and barbarism.
While it destroys the physical life
of the victim, il utterly degrades and
brutalizes the perpetrators.
1T is rcprCach to American civ
ilization. and even to humanity iself.
There is no apology to be made for
the crime or the criminals, but we
must insist that all criminals be pun
ished according to the law of civilized
people. The time has come for pulpit
and press, with united voice, to de-
nounce this relic of barbarism.
National Prosperity and the strike.
The nation was never so prosper
Gus in it, history as to-day.
The United States is fast becoming
the workshop of the world. The
west and the south are showing Won
dcrfully i'm the new life that has come
to the nation. We have had glimpse
of the orient as we look through the

Arthur said. had been forced on I'M
reasonable grounds. Every man had
the right to give up work, if in so
doing he did not violate a contract,
but he had no right to say to an
other man that he could not work in
his place.

Not Nearly So Much Suffering In Ia
patn County, Tex, rs Was at
First Reported.

Dallas, Tex, Sept. 2.-Advices to
the News show that the reports of the
effects of the drought in Zapata coun-
~ have been much exaggerated. Rep
resentative Seabury, who represents
Zapata county in the Legislature, has
letters from friends in various parts
of the county advising him that the
reports that anyone has starved to
death there are unfounded. There
has been no suffering, for while some
have not made sufficient crops for
their own subsistence, the better
classes are willing and able to sus-
tain them. This is being done, rem
dcring outside aid unnecessary, Rep
resentative Seabury says.

There VIII be Twelve or Thirteen
Vessels in the Fleet, with Sir
Thomas Lipton's Erin, by Cour-

Line.

New York, Sept. Capt. Thomas
d. Walker, who is to command the
fleet patrolling the international
yacht race course, during the races
between the Shamrock and the Ameri-
can cup defender, tells of his plans in
this weeks Leslies.
There will be no torpedo boats this
year" he says.
THE revenue boats will do the
work of the navy guard boats in 1899,
and from the mast of each will fly
the revenue service flag, with its white
field blue stars and red and white
stripes, instead of the navy guard
pennant.
There will be twelve or thirteen
vessels in the patrol fleet-five or six
revenue cutters and five or six steam
yachts.
Courtesy TO the Erin.
81 shall offer the right of line in the
division composed of steam yachts to
Sir Thomas Lipton's Erin, a courtesy
extended two years ago, and one
which is his due.
There is great deal of lawful au-
thority that goes with the revenue
service pennant that harbor captains
especially respect. In order that
steam yacht may fly it, it will be
necessary for me to designate an Off
Ger of the revenue marine to go
aboard and take charge of the YES
sells patrol work during the races.
We will not interfere with the hand
ling of the Erin, which will be left to
her own officers.
The Gresham the Flagship.
"In addition the Gresham, the rev.
enue cutter from New York, will car
ry the senior officers pennant to in
dictate that her signals are to be
obeyed. These are arranged especial
~ for the occasion, but the one most
frequently used is the speed signal,
the black one, which indicates by its
position on the mast whether the YES
sci is going full speed, half speed,
ahead or astern. The main purpose
of the signals will be to keep the ex-
curson fleet half mile to leeward,
and astern of the racing yachts.
"There will be two divisions of the
patrol fleet and two great fleets of
steamboats,.
"Captains who do not heed signals
will be vigorously dealt with. If
boat encroaches and does not heed
warning gun, it will be ordered home
in charge of a revenue officer"
