Freedom School.

On Friday, January 4, 1901, our
school, under the care of A. Il.
Brown closed. About ten O'Clock
the people of Freedom neighbor-
hood began to come in, and with
them were large baskets filled with
such good things as the people of
this locality know so we'll how TO
prepare.
About IL o'clock we thought we
needed refreshing SO crowd OF
about $50 people gathered around
and seemed TO enjoy the royal re-
past set before them,
Dinner being over, quite plea
SAINT time was enjoyed listening to
the recitations and other exercises
OF the school. When the children
were through with their parts the
patrons had their talks, and when
our teacher finished his short talk
things seemed to change from
! school to more solemn work, and
as our friend spoke there we're but
few unmoistened eyes to:be seen
| in the crowd. Next a treat was
given by the teacher with which
all seemed to be highly pleased
land thus ended our school.

HANGING


Union county has again come
forward with a sensation. This
time IL is n peculiar murder OF sui
ci,ie.
.A,young man named Timothy
McCar.y started from Uniontown
TO Morganfield TO procure license
to we'd Miss Mollie .Sizemore, and
some hunters found his body han
ging to gum tree about 4 o'clock
the same afternoon.
When he left Uniontown il is
said he had one hundred dollars in
his pocket, but when found hang
ing to the tree he had only four
dollars. He had been hanged with
the bride of the mule he was rid
ing when he left Uniontown.
The verdict of the coroner's ju-
~ was to the effect that he came
to his death at the hands of un-
known parties. Some are of the
opinion that he committed suicide
though his clothing and his body
showed evidence that he had been
foully dealt with. 1t is strange
case.

been fairly inaugurated. The course of af- fairs in the money market gave substantial ground for apprehension on the part of speculators dependent on loans for carrying their holdings. It is evident that the recent enormous extension of credits for financing railroad combinations has much curtailed the future resources of the money market. The rehux of funds from circulation is dis. tlnctly less with the growing activity of
 business requirements, Incident to the
 spring trade. The absence of American sub
 scriptions of any important volume to the
 new British loan excites comment. It is
 due in part to the easier conditions of the
 foreign money market, which resulted in a
 price for the loan unattractlye to American
 Investors. But there can be no doubt that
 the narrowed surplus resources of the New
 York money market also had to do with
 preventing American bids for the loan. The
 rate of sterling exchange makes it evident
 that any considerable subscriptions for
 American account to the eXchequer bonds would have necesstated gold exports. The
 January figures of exports ia or agflculturai SEQ, 100000 over those of the preceding Jan uary make this condition the most extraor- dinary It Is believed that the return of American securities during the last few than any of the usually accepted statistics indicate London was large speculative buyer of stocks here this morning, especial ly of ,Atchison and of Norfolk and Western.

THE GOLD LEGION MEETING.
A Movement to Establish Permanent
 Organization.

A Movement to Establish Permanent Organization.
 | A movement has been started to form 2 permanent organization of the gold legion, an organization which has gain
 ed considerable prominence in this city and throughout the southern section of the state, as a marching political club
 during the last three or four presiden-
 tial campaigns Heretofore there has
 been no permanent organization, but in
 each presidential campaign the club
 has been reorganized for active work.
 A meeting of the members of the le-
 zion was held in the Tontine hotel last
 night to discuss the proposed formation
 of permanent organization. Alder
 man E. I. Atwater, president of the
 Geld legion, presided at last nights
 meeting, and about fifty members were present. MT. Atwater explained the proposition Major Ludington, com mander of the legion, was present, and said that he thought that the idea of establishing permanent organization was a good one, and that the organiza- tion would be a credit to the city. s. Parker Lewis outlined the plan, and the general opinion of the members as expressed was favorable to the idea. It is proposed to make the legion some thing like the Putnam Phalanx of Hart ford But while it will be military marching club it will not lose its polit- ical character. There will be no weekly or monthly meetings, but 1t is proposed to have annual bancuets spring and fall field days and annual trips out of the city.
 Arrangements have not been complet- ed yet but it has been suggested that a dinner be held soon, which the older members, those who have participated with the legion in previous campaigns, but who were rot able to take part with in it the last campaign, will be in- vited to attend.
 It was voted to hold smoker soon, within ten days or two weeks and committee of three was appoint ed to make arrangements, the commit tee consisting of c. M. Dobbs, l.. T. Davis and H. c. Trowbridge. Sl
 An invitation was Submitted last night for the legion to take part in the l inaugural parade in Washington on March 4. The invitation was referred i to committee to look lip what ar engagements can be made for the legion | attending the inauguration. This com | mittee, which consists of r. P. Lewis | and W. H. French and will report at | the smoker to be held soon
 It was voted to appoint committee | 1f three to make a draft o, the sugges- ions for the ,ormation of the pernla- lent organization and to report at the smoker. The committee consists of F. P. Lewis. F. .. D. Barnes. and E. L. Fcx.

SCORED A BIG HIT.

| The Cohans' Latest Success, "The Gov ernor's Son." at the Hyperion Last | Night.
 The popularity of the Four Cohans was manifested last night by the rous- ing reception which was accorded them Mhen they presented their latest suc- cess 'The Governors Son." at the Fly perion to a crowded house. The piece
 was written by George M. Conan and
 is very clever up-to-date musical
 farce, many new and original ideas be-
 ing introduced.
 The piece is in three acts and wealth
 of scenery is used. The second act is
 by far the best of the three and is the
 malnstay of the piece. The setting in
 the first act was very beautiful, but the
 second act, showing the Vacation Inn,
 was one of the finest that has been seen
 in farce comedy in many years. MT.
 Conan has made a most hattering suc-
 cess in writing this piece, and after few short cuts 1t will no doubt prove one of the theatrical hits of the present season. He is a young man, and, with his previous record and this present success, he has most brilliant future. The company that has been selected to present this piece is one of exceptional merit and includes number of we'll known and popular people. The prin cipal musical numbers are ''The Weep ing Widow" "A Regular William Gil- lette,'' "The Story of the Wedding March, Ma Honey Babe,' "Too Many Miles from Broadway, "Serenade, Oh, MT. Moon," and 'The Quakertown Ga dets." The costumes are also worthy of special mention, as they were very fetching.
 It would be hardly necessary to go into details regarding George, Jerry, Helen and Josephine Conan, for their excellent work is well known. George and Josephine did most excellent bit of dancing and fully deserved the ap- plause it received. Miss Jeanette Kirk wood was very good in the part of the widow. Esther Levey rendered a num- Der of pleasing songs to the delight of all. William Keough was good as the governor. William H. Sloan in his ! makeup of the Dutch detective did a most original bit of work and he scored | a great success. Others deserving of special mention were James H. Man. ming. M. J. Sullivan, Hugh Mack and Peter R. Randall.
 'The Governors Son. is first-class l up- to-date comedy, brim full of good 1 things, and it is certain to make great | hit
