Charged With Mysterious Murder.
Sioux Falls, S. d., July pa murder
mystery which has battied the author-
tiles for seven or eight years appears
about to be solved by the authorities
of Bon Homne county.
I Seven or eight years ago Mrs.
kucera. wife of a Bohemian farmer
living in the northwestern part of Bon
Hmnme county, disappeared under cir
cumstances which We're mysterious.
The husband claimed that she had
ieloped with a neighbor. AS it was
known the couple had frequently quar-
relied people In the vicinity became of
the opinion that the woman had been
murdered by her husband and the body
secreted.
After the disappearance Of his Wife,
kucera sold his valuable farm, but
has since remained In the neighbour
hood
The other day while pile Of stones
near the former home Of Kucera and
his wife were being removed the skele-
ton of g woman supposed to be that
of the unfortunate Mrs. Kucera was
uncovered. having been buried under
meath the pile.
& SO strong is the belief that the re-
mains are those of Mrs. Kucera and
that she was killed by her husband
that kucera has been arrested on the
charge of murder.

jail to await his trial at the next term

And sixteen brethren brought him home,
Though he says he brought them.

Had rent his Sunday coat
There must have been lively time

And pTacticing his signs

And other mOnkeyshines;
He mutters passwords, meath his breath
And other things lie quote
They surely had an evenings work
When father rode the goat.

And golden badges, too,

We wonder if he rode the goat
Or if the goat rode him.

A TALENTED NORTH CAROLINIAN
Wilmington Messenger.


Rev. DR.. Robert P. Pell, native of
North Carolina and son OF the late
Rev. William f. Pell, a we'll known
Methodist minister, ha. been pres
ident for some years of the Pres
byterian Female College, of Columbia,
S. c., and has been elected president
Of Converse Female College, at Spar
tanburg. He is success clearly.
The Columbia State noticing his cleo
ton congratulates Converse College
and says it is a loss to Columbia 1t
says:
Here DR.. Pell has done fine work
without the advantages he will have at
Converse. There he will have an even
better opportunity to demonstrate his
ability as a college executive and an edu-
Gator. There are very few men in the
South who have as thorough an under
standing and as deep an interest in the
educational situation in this section as
DR.. Pel has. and it is most fitting that
he should be called to larger field of
endeavor
We probably knew him as a little
boy and are glad of his distinction.
He has brother of equal mark resid-
ing in Richmond. Va, Rev. DIR. Pell,

LAWLESS SPIRIT.
Startling Manifestations During the
Trial of Wilcox.

Correspondence Raleigh Post.
Having read, in detail. the proceed
ings Of the trial Of Wilcox, | am
prompted to write this article, with a
few observations respecting the
same
In reading the account OF the trial
in the Norfolk (Va.) Landmark, OF
Saturday, | find the following start
ling statement from the representa-
tive Of that enterprising journal
"There was 4 secret movement put
on foot late tonight by determined
parties to 90 to the jury room and
demand verdict at once. If the jury
refused, the mob would take the law
in their own hands. There we're cool
heads that got the wind Of the plot
and saved untold trouble and blood
she'd
Whittier are we drifting? Toward
anarchy and destruction? Such signs,
indeed, have portentous meaning.
Has it come TO pass that in conserva-
tive old North Carolina we have
reached the point when reason and
Justice no longer control mems &C
lions? Are our nries to be intimi-
dated is such manner as described
above, and is such outrageous conduct
to escape the general condemnation
which it deserves
1t was published very generally in
the press that on Thursday when Mr..
Adylett, Of counsel for Wilcox, rose
to address the jury, as many as three
hundred people, as manifestation Of
their disapproval, left the court room
If this was not done to influence or
intimidate the jury, then what
prompted such unseemly conduct?
North Carolina has reached the sad
dest day in her history if the mob
spirit is permitted to grow; and it be-
| hooves the conservative, serious
minded, lawabiding element to take
firm stand and cry aloud: Hold,

our State along industrial lines if for

come among us if such \ situation

The Landmark correspondent stated
also that feeling and excitement were
so high that there were rumors if the
| jury acquitted Wilcox that it would
have been very "unpleasant for them
hereabouts."
| Could evidence Of intimidation be
stronger The writer is not pleading
for Wilcox, but for justice, law and
order, and the preservation of the
good name of the State.
Within recent months | was dis

South along industrial lines with a
wealthy Northern friend, and | ex-

featuring enterprises here pay better
dividends than in other sections. His
reply to me was '.Lynchings!"
Disguise it or apologize for it or
condone it as we may, the fact re-
mains that statistics prove that only
25 per cent. of the lynchings occur
for the nameless crime. These are
ugly facts, but the people should
know them; they alone have the

ment to women school teachers of the

ARGUMENT AGAINST

EX-SeCretary Foster Address
eS the Committee.
son OF Mr.. EVARTS ALSO HEARD

Former Secretary John W Foster and
Mr.. Maxwell Evarts. son of the late Hon
William NJ. Evarts. today appeared be
fore the House Committee on Foreign
Affairs in opposition TO the proposed
Chinese exclusion bill
Mr. Fosters remarks we're Of the same
tenor as the speech he recently delivered
before the Senate committee. He said that
he would file a brief with the committee
pointing out wherein the proposed law
is IN direct conflict with the treaty which
this Government has with China.
He declared that he did not enter into
Il consideration Of the labor question in
volved by the admission OF the excIu-
sion Of the Chinese. but rather appealed
TO the sense of justice which should com
pei Congress TO abide by the treaty obi
cations OF the Government
Challenges Debate.
In concluding he declared rhat If ne
could not find twenty violations Of the
treaty iu the bin he would be very
poor lawyer. and that he would he willing
10 appear before any jury of mis- country
men to argue them.
Mr.. Livernash. who spoke in favor Of
the bill several days ago said he would
accept the challenge of the former Sec
Rotary Of State and meet MIN to discuss
before any jury the provisions Of the bill.
Mr.. EvdrJs followed MI Foster lie
said that because he represented the
Pacific Steamship Mail Company he had
been accused of selfish interests in op-
posing the bill He also. ne declared.
represented the great producers of the
country who were just now finding that
vast market for their produce was be-
ing opened up in China.
Menace 10 Trade.
He ntimated that a violation OF the
Chinese treaty by the passage Of the bill
would destroy that trade. II anything
was done. he thought only the Geary act
ought 10 be re-enacted for the remaining
two years OF the duration of the treaty.
That would not offend China. and at the
sane time il would protect American la
Dor from the Chinese labor and meet all
the requirements Of those who favored
the pending bill He commended that the
number OF Cinnamon in the United States
was diminishing.
Nj Evarts said it was wrong TO con-
fuse legislation excluding the Chinese
from the Philippines with exclusion from
the United States. These propositions
should be divided, as together they would
lead to serious entanglements. He also
eontended that certain provisions Of the
proposed bill we're unconstitutional

The story is that as Miss Brow. was

then spoke. whereup0n -he young woman
dealt him a blow in the face that sent him
SPRAYING on the sidewalk.
Miss Brown stood over her foe for q
moment OF two, apparently studying as
20 whether she should further chastise
him. and while in this meditative mood
a policeman came up and, hearing the
young Woman's statement. placed Jewett
under arrest.
When taken 30 the police station
Jeweti was in an uuenyiabIe plight. His
face was bloody. hA hair disheyeHed and
