Jefferson City, Aug. 13.-Governor

tion he would take, il any, in regard
to the recent, hanging by mob at

named johnson, who was in pursuit
Of them for robbing his hen house.
The governor expressed himself in a
general way, as follows:
1.-The action OF the mob at Lexing.
ton, and one or two other points in
this state, is to be deplored. In con-
sideration OF the fact that l, as gov
ernor OF the state, have strictly up
held the findings OF courts and iuries,
there can be no sufficient excuse for
mob violence.
During my term as governor |
have pardoned but very few crimi-
nails. Ten murderers have been exc
cuted since my Inauguration. In
nearly every one OF these cases strong
appeals were made for executive
Gle mency. declined to grant such
clemency, because there were no facts
and circumstances sufficient to war
rant an interference with the findings
OF the courts and iuries, and for the
further reason that | believe the best
way in which to secure obedience to
the law is to rigidly enforce it. AS
governor, therefore, | Have given no
excuse for mob vialence in any county
OF the state, however much it might
be provoked. i feel that it is the
duty of sheriffs and other officers OF
the law, charged with the RESPONSE
bility OF preserving life, to make
every effort to protect prisoners
against mob violence. =
The people of Missouri desire a
strict enforcement OF the law, and SO
long as am governor | will uphold
the verdicts Of iuries and courts, and
not carelessly turn criminals loose
upon communities. ask, therefore,
that the sheriffs and other officers oil
the state be vigilant in protecting
the lives Of prisoners and In securing
for them fair and impartial trials.

"Lincoln's Prescription"

Abraham Lincoln and an Illinois
farmer had long been friends; and the
latter had written an everyday sort
ofletter in which he said, among 9TH
er things, that he had been in poor
health. Out in Illinois, they are able
to this day to quote what is called
"Lincoln's prescription" sent to the
farmer in reply by the president.
"Do not worry" it read. Eat
three square meals q day. Say your
prayers. Think of your wife. Be
courteous to your creditors. Keep
your digestion good. Steer clear OF
biliousness. Exercise. Go slow and
go easy. Maybe there are other
things that your especial case requires
to make you happy; but, my dear
friend, these, | reckon, will give you

New York, Aug, 14.-Santos-
Dumont, aeronaut, sailed for France
on La Touraine to-day.
His intended departure WAS known
only to a few friends, and was ex-
planned by the aeronaut himself as
due to the failure of certain parties to
put up the expected $50. 900 prizefor

be done with it. | had fully intended
to make the battery trip, and when |

so"
Santos Dummont said that he was
not n rich man, and he could not
make an exhibition of this kind with
out assurances that his expenses
would be paid. When in France, he
continued, he received word that the
Aero Club of America had offered a
prize OF SO, 900 for a flight from
Brighton Beach to the Battery in
this city. In response to this offer he
came over with his machine.
"Since have been staying here, -
concluded the aeronaut, Il heardva
ri ous rumors that the offer was not
legitimate. Whether this is true or
not do not know, but ! am not 60
ing to take any risks, and, therefore,
have decided not to make the sail"
George Francis Kerr, the secretary
of the Aero Club, expressed much
surprise when told of the aeronaut's
departure.
81 cannot see why Mr.. Dumont has
sailed without making his trip, as all
the preparations for it have practic-
ally been made he said. ut was
only yesterday that Mr.. Dumont told
me to order the hydrogen gas with
which his balloon was to be inflated,
and he, at all times, seemed to be
most enthusiastic over the trip. The
only loser in this case will be the
Aero Club. The men who made this
offer have spent quite sum of mon
ey in the preparations for Mr..
Dummont's trip"
