An alarm of fire sent in from the
box at the corner of Main and
Centre streets Saturday afternoon
had tine effect OF assembling a
throng of people in front of the
Writ building, where the fire was
supposed to be burning. Smoke
in large volumes was issuing from
the third story windows The
Winona Company had connected
with the plug in front of the Court
House and was ready to turn on
the water when it was discovered
that no fire existed. F. M. Gil
more, who occupies the basement
of the building, had just started a
fresh fire and it appears that the
Aue had become clogged, thus
forcing the smoke out through the
windows. The excitement ran
high for few minutes.

The clubbing arrangement with
the W0rN has not been renewed
for 1901. These are three reasons
for this:
First. The object is to secure
new subscribers and to induce old
ones to pay up. The effect has
been that only those who always
pay in advance anyway have taken
advantage of it.
SeeOnd. 1t costs us four cents
more than we get for it, and is
therefore loss to us.
zMrd. The W0rH is mailed
direct to subscribers from New
York. If not received we have no
knowledge of it, but many COM
plants are made to us either that
it does not come regularly, or not
at all. We have even been taken
to task for some of the W0rlaS
political views that do not suit the
reader.
In order therefore to avoid loss
and annoyance, without any cores
ponding compensation, we have
discontinued the club arrangement
and will no longer furnish the
W0rM with this paper. ct.

KANSAS DIsoRAcED.

The negro, Fred Alexander of Leav-
enworth, who attempted to assault
Miss Eva Roth few days ago and who
was suspected of the assault and MUIR
der Of Miss Pearl Forbes Nov. 6, was
taken from the jail Tuesday afternoon
and burned at the stake. More than
5000 people witnessed the horrible
proceedings. The negro protested his
innocence to the last. Sheriff Ever
hardy seems to have been as much to
blame as any of the lynchers.
Kansas people have been foremost
in their denunciation of negro lynch
ings in the south, but even in he
worst of southern outrages there has
usually been absolute certainty of the
victims guilt. In this case, however,
there was no certainty as to the crime
of murder, but only suspicion. The
affair is certainly a most diSgraceful
one and blot on the fair name of the
state.
