| SHERIFF WHIPS FIVE MEN
One White Man and -Four Negroes at the
Whipping Post Saturday.
THE LASH APPLIED VIGOROUSLY
Through MiscalcuIation One
Gets a Neck Blow.
PUNISHMENT RECEIVED STOlGALLy

At county Jail at New Castle Satur-
day Sheriff Mcdaniel took his second
trial at WELDING the lash, administering
the corporal punishment upon five men
sentenced Saturday week in the Court
of General Sessions. The sberiff's work
Saturday was more vigorous than his first
effort, week ago. He did not bend
his knee and attempt to reach the cul
prit at the post, but had mark which
he apparently towed and then allowed
the lash to DO the rest. Although the
lash was not laid on with much severity,
1t was welded with an effect that
shows that the new sheriff may before
the end of his term make the whipping
with the cat o. nine tails punishment
that the culprits will not care to have
inflicted on their barred backs.
James Firms, the only white man to
be chastised was placed in the pillory
at IL O'Clock and released as the town
clock on the steePle Of Emmanuel Epis-
copal Church, struck IL. He was the
last man of the FIVE to be whipped and
he suffered. Every mark of the cat
told and when the twelfth fell about
the neck OF the unfortunate, the latter
twisted uneasily. The stroke was an
unfortunate one for the sheriff ard the
pEiaouotB hhu tuhuy poiSohS Woio hooia
to remark that the law requires that
the cat is to be applied only between
the shoulders and hips. The sheriff
had made NATURALIZATION.
James Spence, colored, was the first
victim of the lash and smiled as he
took bis two dnsos of five lashes each
on charges Of larceny.
Laa Ackwood, ,colored, squirmed as
the fifth lash caught his ribs on the
right side. He received is lashes.
John Roach, a yellow man, wheezed
as be had his hands placed in the iron
bands ON either side Of the post. He
took 10 lashes. The fourth stroke made
mark on his back.
Percy Coleman, muiatto, received
his 10 strokes without flinching and
after being unouffed said De site

The prisoners took their punishment

early Sunday morning, might have

noticed smoke coming from the house
and raped on the door, but without
receiving response. Then they forced
the door, and warned the doctor and
bis family In time for them TO escape.
The smoke had already reached the
upper Fart Of the house.
Officer Maloney sent in an alaI m
from the box, No. 2l3, at Fourth and
Poplar streets. DIR. Becker disappeared
and 1t was thought he had gone to the
third floor for something and been
overcome, SO Officer Shields went on a
search fer HIM and was himself almost
overcome by the smoke. 1t turned out
that the doctor had gone to the Della

The fire was extinguished by the

QUEEN WILHELMINA'S WEDDING.

The press and the public have hardly
ceased their eulsgiss over the grave of
the political woman, Queen Vie
toris, when they hegiD to overflow
with bridal congratulations to another
.-Queen WilheImina. And thess good
wishes FOR the young queen are not
fsiRned, but real. Many of these same
men and newspapers are given to de.
nounclng women inpolIticst but al
soon as there is Q royal Wedding or a
royal funeral. 1t becomes CLEAR that their
dislike is for the political woman in
the abstract, not In the concrete.
Wilhelmina's wedding, like Vic.
toria's funeral, has conepicuously re.
futed stock objections to equal suffrage.
For instance, it is prophesied that
they will lose all their interest in
pretty clothes, and will no longer Try
to make themselves beautiful. But
columns are devoted TO the description
Of withdrawals wedding dress, and q
very pretty dress 1t seems to have been.
We are told that no one would wieh
to marry a political woman. But
Queen Wilhelmins has had the offer
Of almost every marriageable prince IN
Europe. 1t ie said that IL woman
held political office, she would lose all
her social influence. But Queen Wilhel-
nina has more social influence than
any other person In Holland, precisely
because she holds the highest politi
| cal office in the kingdom. IL is pre-
dicted that IL women take an interest
| in public affairs, they will become
demoralized and unsexed. Butino one
SCENE to entertain such fears for
Wilhelmina. Last, and worst threat
Of all in woman g eyes, it is declared
that political woman could not be
Beloved. But all accounts agree that
Wilhelmina is adored by her people,
and the carnival Of loyal rejoicing in
| the Netherlands over her wedding has
been somsthing unprecedented.
The handful of rich society women in
America WHO officer and conduct the
Associations Opposed TO The Exten-
sion of Suffrage Of Women look with
strong disapproval upon Mrs. Eyange-
line Heartz, member Of the Colorado
House Of Representative. and would
regard women as hopelessly 'un
sexed' II she wore elected mayor OF the
smallest city in Kansas by the free
choice OF her fellow citizens. Yet there
is not one OF these fashionable and aris-
tocratic ladies but would have stood an
inch taller if she had been invited to
Queen Wilhelmina's wedding. Verify,
consistency is jewel.
