Tuesday evening at O'Clock
while OH her way home, Rosaline
Barillaaux, strong girl Of sixteen
" as overpowered by negro brute
on the rail road track, J mile from
the Southern Pacific passenger de
pot at Franklin, La. The negro
brute dragged her under a box car
but was foiled in his designs by
the girls cries which brought to
her resue Mr. Andrew SchrOustOn
who was coming that way, and
who was successful in driving the
negro away. Four negro's were
arrested on suspicion here the
next day by chief Carter and
policeman Hebert.
Miss Barilleaux with her father
and Sheriff Sanders was here to
identify the negroes, but she failed
to recognize either of the three as
her assillant.
Great excitement prevailed in
Franklin, and If the brute is
caught, as he no doubt will be,
there are chances that four will
be a lynching.

How to Spell Turner.

Dobbs met his friend Turner in
the tram. They were both going to
London, and stopped at the same
hotel. Turner registered bis name:
''E. X. Photography"
Dobbs, noticing it, exclaimed:
"llere, what are you assuming
such a foreign, outlandish name
for? Are you in any trouble?"
''Not bit of it" replied Turner:
"and am not assuming any foreign
name."
"What kind of name is that?"
demanded Dobbs.
THAT is my identical old name,"
persisted Turner, "and 1t is English,
too - pronounced plainly Turner.
81 can't see how you make'Turn-
err out of those thirteen letters. Be

"WelI, you see, nobody ever

the latter; but since l commenced
writing 1t 'Phtholognyrrh' l set
them all guessing. They wonder

to speak no evil, and to listen to
no evil reports or remarks about

them of the vulger habit of gos-
siping or of saying unkind things
of their companions or neighbOrs.

PEELED to exercise great self-denial
in order to carry out this promises.

AMONG THE RAILWAYS,

The Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific
railway. which made a phenomenal sue
cess of cheap excursion rates to Colorado
last season. has again asked its compeu-
tors in the Western and Southwestern
Passenger associations to agree upon "A
series of cheap excursions to and from
Denver. Colorado Springs, and Pueblo, for
the approaching season. on the following
basis: Tickets to be sold from Chicago
and all territory up to Missouri river
June Is, Is, July l6. % and 80, Aug. 6, 49, 20
and q. at rate of one fare plus 81. or s3l so
for the round trip.
On July and and Sept and 10 rate
Of s25 Is to be made from Chicago, and
SIS from Missouri river points for the
round trip. Intermediate territory Will
have proportionate rates. Tickets are to
be sold from Missouri river points one
day later than the dates given above In
each case. Proportionate rates will be
made to and from Glenwood Springs, Salt
Lake City and Ogden.
A series of east-bound excursions Is also
proposed. tickets to be sold from Colorado
common points every Thursday COM
mencinE with June 20 up to and including
Sept. Il, at a rate of one fare plus 50 for
the round trip. All tickets will be limited
for return passage to Oct. 81. These rates
will be rendered connecting lines for bas-
ing purposes. which will probably insure
a very low basis of rates throughout the
United States for these excursions.
The Chicago. Rock Island and Pacific

arrangements effective. regardless of the
action of Its competitors, and will run
special trains. only one night out to and
from Colorado. on the dates named.-Chi.

genuine metal sticks that have been
reft from cathedrals, synagogues, or

hausted, but the modern imitator of

of supplying the active need for these
