Lynched.

Three negroes, mother, daugh-
ter and son, were lynched at Car
rollton, Miss, Thursday. They
were suspected of being implica-
red in the murder of Mr.. and Mrs.,
Taliaferro Thirteen other ne
groes are under arrest. Gov.
Longino arrived on a special train
just after the lynchihg.
The Governor says the State
has again been disgraced by this/
affair, which is all the more hor-l
rible because the lynched negroes
were accused not Of the assassina-
ton of Mr.. Taliaferro and his
wife, but simply of completely in
the crime or of guilty knowledge
OF the fact. An alibi was clearly
established for one man and one
woman.

R.I,ase If Prisoners Threatened
in Hawail-Honolulu Much
Disturbed.

The Constitution of the United
States preceded the flag in Hawaii,
according to decision just re;-
dered by Circuit Judge George ID.
Gear. of the First Circuit. He
has already released on habees
corpus petitions three prisoners
sentenced for Infamous crimes
after the resolution of annexation
passed Congress and was signed
by President Mckinley, on the
ground that they were not con-
victed by unanimous verdict of
twelve jurors.
A wholesale jail delivery Of
murderers, burglars, thieves and
other criminals is threatened under
the decision, and Honolulu is
greatly disturbed over the pros
poets.
BASED ON INsULAR DECISIONS.
The decision was given under
the recent insular decisions of the
United States Supreme Court and
upon the clause in the Newlands
resolution, which stated that all
municipal legislation of the Ha-
wall Islands not inconsistent withg
the Constitution should "remainS
in force Judge Gear held that
thi. meant that laws that were in
consistent with the Constitution
should not remain in force and
that therefore the Constitution ex-
tended to Hawaii Immediately on
the signing of the Newlands reso-
luton by the President.

information respecting the shooting of
British at VlakfOntein so long back "a
June IL, the Daily Mail, whose corre-

public, states that this is only a small
portion of the policy of concealment
now being carried on. 1t processes to
have abundant evidence that almost the
whole theater of war is in a much worse
condition than the public is allowed to
know. The state of affairs in Cape Col
ony in particular are said to be of the
most serious nature, due almost entire
ly to the belief among the Dutch that
constant efforts of the British to pro-
pltlate them, prove they are tired OF
the war. While the government is con-
stantly saying in public the war will be-
fought to a finish, they are, says the
Daily Mail, continually making offers
