Nebraska Tramp Severely Punished

WEEPING WATER, Neb., Sept. S.-Ed,
ward M. Lingell, the tramp who at.
tempted an assault ON the 4-year old
daughter of Walter Perry, near this
place Saturday, was twice strung up to
a telegraph pole yesterday afternoon by
citizens and made to confess his crime
and then turned loose and warned to
leave the country at once.
After the first suspension Lingell was
lowered before he was seriously hurt.
He was allowed to pray and send word
to his mother, and was then hauled up
a second time. He was left suspended
until almost unconscious, when he was
again lowered. On further examination
the crowd determined that Lingell was
not right mentally, and after making
him take an oath to leave the country
at once, he was released.

TO RECLAIM CONCESSION.
Minister Conger's Purpose-Li Hung
Chang Failing Rapidly.


PEKING, Sept 3.-The United States
minister, Mr.. Conger, is taking steps to
reclaim the small American concession
at Tien- Tsin, the title to which has
practically lapsed of late years because
of the government being unorganized
and a majority of the American resi-
dents being scattered among the British
and German concessions. The Ameri-
can need for the concession is chiefly
for military uses, so as to avoid the ex-
per1ences of last summer, when the
United States army had difficulty in
getting quarters and docking facilities.
Ii Hung Chang is becoming more and
more feeble and it is apparent to all his
visitors that it is not probable that he
will ever be able to act as chairman of
the council of state.

IT LOOKS DARK FOR
STRIKING STEEL MEN
At Present Trust Is on Top
In the Fight.
HAVE MANY MILLS GOING

1t Was Thought That the Big Labor
Demonstration Would Strengthen
the Strikers Cause, but Such Has
Not Proven to Be the Case.
PITTsBURG, Sept. st was believed
that yesterdays creditable labor demon
stration would give impetus to the steel
strikers cause and strengthen them in
their great fight, but the developments
in the strike situation today was all IA
vorable to the masters.
From nearly every point in this dis
trict the reports were of a discouraging
nature to the strikers. Thirty two new
workmen, all said to be skilled, entered
the Star tinplate works without mOlesta-
ton; 125 machinists returned to work in
the Pennsylvania and Continental tube
plants, and IL imported men went to
work at the steel hoop mill IN Monessen.
At Duquesne no further efforts were
made to get the men out and the works
were in full operation. Painters and
Lindsay and McCurcheon' mills were
again running with increased forces,
were without material change.
The 80 men taken Into the Star plant
this morning came from Philadelphia
and are said to be skilled workmen.
The pickets were surprised when they
saw the newcomers guarded by police
men making for the plant. They sim
ply stood by in asUonishment and
watched the largest body Of imported
men since the strike march into the
plant and take their places.
Managers Jubilant.
The management was IN rare good
humor and announced that they ex.
pected to have seven Of the eight mills
in the plant in operation before the
close of the day. When the whistle
blew at the Continental tubeworks here
rs machinists and pipe cutters entered
the plant and simultaneously so others
returned to work at the Pennsylvania
Tube works adjoining. No trouble re-
suited. General Manager Lathsaw of
the Pennsylvania Tube company stated
that when the machinists completed the
new furnace the company expected to
start the plant i'll full.
President ShaffeP, referring to the
statement attributed to J. D. Hickey of
Milwaukee, that Mr.. Morgan had offer
ed in consideration of acceptance of the
terms proposed for this year that in
two years all the mills would be includ-
ed in the wage agreement, said:
"When Mr.. Hickey was here he told
me of several supposed statements that
he was credited with, and said they
were untrue. as no doubt this one is. If
he made the statement, however, it re-
.ferred to the exclusive board, and not
to me alone. That is all l can say con-
cerning it.
Mr.. Shaffer satd, further, that he had
heard nothing from the west and that
there was no change in the situation,
which continued to be satisfactory to
them.
1t is stated at McKeesport that the
Demmler Tinplate works will be started
within 48 hours and with it's old en-
ployes. Three mills are to be put in
operation, enough strikers, iG is claimed,
having pledged themselves to return to
man that number of rolls.

NEGROES MAKING PROGRESS.
Improving Its Condition k-s~ Rapidly.

Though large proportion of the negro population of this city still re main in the degraded condition which was the natural result of the races serVitude, there are many-both men and women-who have broken through the barriers surrounding them, and have won for themselves respectable positions in various walks of life, says the Scottish American. No longer are they crowded together to the same ex- tent as formerly. They are to be found above the Harlem as we'll as below it, and in the suburbs of Brooklyn as we'll as in the quarters which in time past were considered peculiarly their own. In the latter borough there is a Society of Sons of Virginia, and in Manhattan the eolored people from North Carolina have banded themselves under the name of Sons of the Old North State. They have several churches of their own, and also places of instruction in which pupils are prepared for special callings.

MOST PRECIOUS MANUSCRIPT.
The Handwriting of Milton Treas- ured as the Gem of All
 English Poets

We have spoken of the Milton book
 at Trinity as being the most precious manuscript of English literature in the world, says Edmund Gosse, in At lantic, and the longer we consider its constitution the less likely we are to dispute this claim. Nothing of Shakes peare's works remains in his own hand writing; nothing important, so far as we know of Chaueer's, or of Spenser's- Of later poets, indeed, we possess man uscripts of more or less value and in terest. But in no other case that can recall, ancient or modern, has it been our privilege to examine the sheets in which, through several years of the highest creative intensity, great poet has left on record the very movement of his mind and the hesitatiens and se- lections of his art in the act of prOduc- tion. When that poet is Milton, the most splendid artist in verse whom the English race has produced, the impor- tance of the document stands revealed beyond any need of emphasis or in- sistence. Now, in the Trinity manu- script, everything is the unprecedented handwriting of Milton, except some of the sonnets, which have evidently been copied by successive amanuenses.

ADVICE TO WOMEN DOCTORS.
Chinese Minister Says They Should Go to the Orient and Learn
 Medicine.

Wu Ting Fang, the new Chinese min
 ister to the United States, is veritable
 genius. Besides being accomplished in
 Chinese literature, and a statesman of
 rare ability, he is a hnguist and phil
 osopher, says Washington exchange
 He was the principal attraction at the
 recent commencement of the Woman's
 Medical college in Philadelphia, and, of
 course, was set down for a speech.
 Since came to this country" he said,
 "I have met women doctors, lawyers
 and journalists, but until I received the invitation to make this address it
 had never occurred to me the women had advanced f4 far as to have an in- stitution exclusively devoted to the training of women for the medical pro- fession.
 II am particularly interested in this institution, because of the Chinese girl, who. after studying here, returned to her native land, where she has since made great success. In China it is generally believed that there is one sphere for women and another for men. The world has acted upon this belief for ages. l am glad that women have gained such a position in the medical profession that they cannot be re- moved.
 ''There are medical works in the Chi nese language containing medical knowledge gained from the experience and practice of long ages. It is great pity that this contribution of k.lowI- edge cannot be available to the whole i world because of the great difference i'll language. The Chinese attach great value to the practice of medicine. If the good people of the European na- tions and of America had sent only med lcal missionaries to China, missionary troubles would happen rarely. If you were to ask my advice to-day, young ladies, l should say with Horace Gree ey: Go west, young lady stop not 1n this side of the Pacific, but 90 un- il you arrive in China Go to China. f you find this country too crowded n your profession.
