The Washington times., 1901-09-18

On Sunday night a crowd of miners
from Hermine, Pennsylvania, made a
descent on a small community of Italian,
Russian and Polish anarchists who oc-
cupied settlement in the upper part of
place known as McGuffey's Hollow.
After considerable but ineffective shoot
ing the anarchists called parley, and
were notified that they would be given
one week in which to leave the mining
district Failing to go, they were ad-
vised that their shanties would be burned
and that any of them remaining might
expect rough usage. The exodus began
on Monday morning and is now said to be
complete.

| painful one These gentlemen are l.. l..
Lewis and Robert C. Titus. the former
| a Republican, the latter a Democrat.
| Both have been State Senators and each
| has been q member of the Supreme
| Court of the State. The remarkable
thilg connected with their designation
is the fact that it was in compliance
with the recommendation of the Bar
! Association of Erie County. 1t is not
hard, though, to perceive the reason LOT
pursuing this course. The duty is one
which few attorneys would voluntarily
undertake, and 1t is one which the
court would feel an extreme delicacy in
imposing upon any member of the bar.
But the law is imperative in its require
ments that a man charged with fell
ony shall be represented by counsel at
every stage of the proceedings. So the
judge relieved both himself and the at
torneys by accepting the selections
made by the Bar Association.
Everything indicates that the trial
will proceed with decorum and with an
absence of all sensational features. The
distinguished lawyers assigned to the
uuly Will see " IL ihhs "a iNAAA
trial is had, but beyond that it is alto
gether unlikely that they will have the
slightest disposition to go. The New
York court in which the case will be
tried cannot but feel that the eyes of
the nation, and, in truth, of the world,
are upon it, and there is no reason to
doubt that the trial will proceed with
dignity to a speedy close. There is. of
course, no suggestion as to the line of
defence. If the insanity plea is urged
1t will have to be considered, but there
is nothing in sight to indicate that the
case can be long drawn out, or accom-
panied by MISUNDERSTANDING to appeal
to those who delight in the morbid and
sensational
1t is earnestly to be hoped that when
the trial proceeds, the representatives
of the press will make a studied and
concerted effort to abbreviate their re-
ports, confining them TO the really ma
terial points involved, and giving the
assassin just as little notoriety as pos
sible. We know nothing Of this partic-
ular anarchist beyond the fact that he
has forfeited the right to live; but the
class to which he belongs has an in
tense craving for notice, and 1t is one
which should not be gratified by giving
one of their number any undue promi-
nence even when on trial for his life.

THE RIGHT THING TO PUT ON.
(Benson's Plaster is FANS Master. )

From the natural impulse to "put soIne-
thing on" painful spot all applications
for the relief of pain have arisen.
The most successful have ever been poul-
tees or plasters, and the best of these is
Benson's Porous Plaster.
No other has anything like the same
power as curative agent; it is highly and
scientifically medicated, and its standard
is advanced year by year.
Use Benson's Plaster for coughs, colds,
chest diseases, rheumatism, grip, neuralgia,
kidney trouble, lame back, and other all
ments that make Winter season of suffer-
ing and danger. 1t relieves and cures
quicker than any other remedy.
Do not accept Capsicum, Strengthening
or Belladonna plasters in place of Benson's,
as they possess none of its curative power.
Insist on having the genuine.
| The people of every civilized land have
testified for years to the superlative merit
of Benson's Plasters; and 5000 physicians
and druggists of this country have declared
them worthy of public confidence.
In official comparisons with others, Ben
sons Plasters have been honored with
| ffty.fpe highest awards.

Japanese Babies,

The japanese baby is model baby
SO far as keeping quiet is concerned.
He may be seen as he is carried on the
shoulders of little brothers or sisters
while they run about In earnest play
or attending to various duties. His
head bobs up and down or lies over
on his shoulder without any support,
and, as it is uncovered, 1t is freely ex-
posed to the heat of the blazing sun.
One would think the brains of the
children would be well nigh roasted
by the heat. They are, however, sell
dom heard to cry as they are carried
in this fashion through the streets by
their brothers and sisters. 1t has often

Ejihu Burritt stopped the leak in his
time and taught himself a dozen

wise, for he read Plato In his carriage

indifference to the "minor morals Of

neglect of duties which arise from our

the leaks which we must stop or be

Cheerfuluess and 1::uTevitY.

New York Weekly.
It is generally the case that cheerful
people are rewarded with long life
Commonplace though this sounds
there is no truth more commonly
igno1ed in actual everyday existence
Most persons will declare that il man
is not naturally cheerful he cannot
make himself so. Yet this is tar from
the case, and there is many a~man who
is at present weary burden to his rel
atives, miserable through the carking
care of some bodily ailment, perhaps,
or some worldly misfortune who, if he
had grown up into the idea that to be
cheerful under all circumstances was
one of the first duties Ut lite, might
still see pleasant enough world around
him. Thackeray truly remarked that
the world is for each of us much as We
show ourselves to the world. If we
face it with a CHEEKY resignation, we
find the world fairly full of cheerful
people glad to see US. If we enarl at 1t
and abuse it, We may be sure of abuse
IN return. The 1rritability of a morose
person may shorten his days, and the
general injustice of natures arrange
ment provides that his early departure
should entail no long regrets. On the
other hand, the man who can laugh
keeps his health, and his friends are
glad to keep him. To the perfectly
healthy, laughter comes often. Too
commonly, though, as childhood is left
behind, the habit fails, and half-smile
is the best that visits the thought-lined
mouth of q modern man or woman.
People become moro and more bur
dened with the increasing responsible
ties OF life but they should still spare
time to laugh. Let them never forget
moreover, and let it be medical mans
practice to remind them, that a smile
sits ever secure upon the face OF wis.
dom.

ciety. The incident is threatening and
full of alarm.
If God intended to preserve the
races distinct and social equality tends
to destroy this distinctness then social
equality is sin.
These things being said, it is yet
true that there are many things that
We can tenderly and lovingly do fo1
tho black race. We have no need to
tell them they are brutes and without
our sympathy. They are human and
entitled to our sympathy, our protec-
tlon and our help. We are to meet
them at the judg ment and our con-
duct towards them, in every particular,
should bear upon its face the remem-
brance of this great fact.
Negroes have souls to be saved,
minds to be developed, and their own
sphers OF usefulness to be filed.
Christian white people should do every
thing in their power under the grace
of God, to help the black man meet
and discharge the conditions that are
upon him. He needs material support.
Help him to employment az cheerfully
as you do any one else. Teach him
the best means of support, and we
need not be humillated If We are found
engaged in the same employment and
working at the same place. Help b i'm
to the fullest education of which he is
capable. Build schools, colleges and
universities for him, and prepare him
for the highest conditions of usefulness
Preach the Gospel to him In Christian
sympathy, tenderness and love. Help
him to build churches and cooperate
with him In every proper effort to
advance the Kingdom among his own
people and throughout tho world. 1t
should be our special delight to see
him grow in grace and in the know
ledge of God, as we'll as in tho know
ledge of men and the utilization OF
things.
This will be far more helpful to his
present and future conditions than an
Invitation to dinner, and will not make
him unfit for the duties of life nor
fool because of his social relations.
