Newborn, Tenn, October s.-Garfield lynched-here at 9 o'clock tonight by a mob of 800 persons. Burley, on Saturday last, shot and killed D. Flatt, a well known young farmer near Dyersburg. Flatt had traded horses with the negro and later Burley demanded that the trade be declared off. Flatt refused to accede to this proposition, and while on his way home was shot down by Bur ley.
 A posse has been hunting the murderer, and last night located him in a negro cabin at Huffmann, Ark. While being brought to Dyersburg BurIey confesso the killing. duplicating Curtis Brown as an accessory. Both men were lodged in jail at Dyersburg today. A mob soon ap- peared at the jail and demanded possess sion of the prisoners.
 Criminal Court Judge Maiden made a strong plea that the law be allowed to deal with the case. saying that he would instruct the grand jury to fino indict- ments at once and that the negroes would be placed on trial tomorrow. Judge Maiden said that as the evidence vas complete there would be no doubt of a conviction The mob would not listen to the judges reasoning and forcibly took possession of the two men. A start was made for Newborn, which place was reached at S:30 tonight
 Ropes were secured and the two men were taken to a telegraph pole where they were securely tied face to face At a given word they were strung up and in a few minutes both were pronounced dead. The lynching programme was car- ried out in an ordarely manner, not a shot being fired

WORDS OF WISDOM.

Hidden guilt is the most hurtful.
Justice seeks those who will no'
seek mercy.
Blank cartridges will often MAKE
the most noise.
Only the unworthy cause will use
unworthy means.
Every man reveals himself when he
describes another.
True humility bows lower as pros
perity rises higher.
The temperature of the heart cannot
be gagged by the head.
We are too altrulstlc over duties and
egotistic over rewards
1t takes two to make a quarrel, but
only one may make peace.
The only way to fee the vengeance
of sin is to fear its venom.
Selfishness is the cause of sin and
sacrificing service its cure.
Talk about looking for opportunities
of doing good" We may as well talk
about looking for firewood in forest
or for water during flood. The world
is full of such opportunities

The Local Newspaper Considered as q
Benevolent Institution.
1t seems singular that many persons
entertain the idea that newspapers are
printed entirely for philanthropic mo-
tiyes, says the Cambridge (Mass.)
Times, and that their columns should
be devoted to their especial benefit.
There is a class who think that ad-
vertising is inserted more TO ill ur
space, and they consider that the pub
Usher OF local paper should be CRATE
ful for the church notices they con-
tribute.
In nine cases out Of ten the notices
which these benign brothers and Sis
ters send are really nothing more nor
less than advertising matter. for which
they ask publication without cost,
while they at the same time derive a
revenue by this method Of reaching
the people.
They enter a newspaper office and
place their notices of church fairs,
festivals and other entertainments OH
the editors table with as much grace
as though they were rendering
twenty-dollar bill.
The up-to-date local paper employs
q staff of men to collect news which
will be of interest to all classes. These
men are hustlers, know their business
thoroughly, and present the news in
the most concise and condensed form
possible.
Instead of the publisher being de,

But it is not the news which sup.

received which sustains the plant is
derived through its advertising pa

The publisher sells the space in his

at seems to cost a great deal to
live nowadays" says the Philadelphia
Inquirer. Most persons notice It, es.
pecially persons who ale hard put to
II to find the money to pay their bills.
The statisticians report that commodi-
ties in general use cost on an average
about ten per cent. more than they did
last year. The rise in the price Of
meat contributes a good deal to this
advance. though breadstufPs have been
high too. Articles of luxury, like good
clothes and country houses, have
grown dearer in proportion than most
articles Of necessity, because the huge
influx Of money that the country has
sustained has made a brisk market
for luxuries. Rents are higher, houses
cost more, servants get higher wages,
board is higher at resort hotels. The
living expenses Of any given family
are very much affected by the ex-
penses Of other families of their ac-
quaintance, and the scale of living of
other families seems just now to have
become inconveniently liberal. Prodi-
gality is so consciously prevalent that

The Premium Plan.

In carrying out the premium plan Of
wages in conjunction with piece-work
1t has been found that owing to fiuctua.
tions in the volume and nature Of the
work 1t is necessary to adjust the rate
price from time to time. If an efficient
workman makes very large wages Oh
piece-work the employer is apt to re
duce the rate, and, after that the work
man is apt to do just as much as he
thinks the employer will stand without
another cut, and so reduce the possible
output of his machine. A modification
Of this system has been successfully
tried in some very large English work.
shops. Piece-workers are given GER
tain stint, in American parlance, which
constitutes an hours work, being paid
by the hour. All they do In excess Of
this is considered premium work, for
which they receive half-wages. The
employer thus shares to the extent OF
one-half in the increased production, so
that he need not be under the necessity
Of cutting down the rate.
