Brief Paragraphs Giviug Some OF the
happenings of the World OF Men.

Charles Young, a negro charged
with assaulting and then numbering
a white womsn, Mrs. Ed. Edwards,
was burned at the stake by an in
furisted mob at Forest City, Ark,
Monday night. The Sheriff OF the
county, who had lodged the negro
ia jail, used every effort against the
violent measure, but to no avail.
The keys were taken from him and
the negro carried to point about
a half a mile from the city, where
the affair occurred.
A negro who had esconsed himself
in a freight box on a tlain between
Charlotte and Chester Tuesday with
the assertion that he would "ride
that train to Chester or kill the
whole dam crew." drew his gun on
the conductor, Trapier. when called
out of the car at Rock Hill, and was
immediately shot by Mr.. Henry
LLOYD, one of the train crew. he
died instantly.
D. W. Hopkins, white man, on
Monday night while in cell at the
station house in Anderson, placed
there for drunkenness four times
attempted to end his life. The first
time he hung himself with a pair Of
suspenders. Detected, he subse
quently made two attempts to hang
himself with his underclothes. Fooled
in these attempts, he tried to butt
out his brains against the wall OF
the cell. He was finally given an
opiate and quieted down.
Samuel Bigby, young man living
near Honea Path, as shot on Sat
urday night at a disreputsble house
in Greenville. He had gone to Green
Vile in seach of work, and was an
entire stranger in the place. He
went to the house of disrepute in
company with a friend, and was
mistaken by a man inside for another.

Benjamin Prouty of Boston, an old
time New Englander, at the Park Ave
nue., told last night how he was born
and brought up and still spends his
summers at the village OF Queen Anne's
Corner in Plymouth county. Mass
When he was a boy he often saw Dan
iel Webster He said: Until a few
years ago there stood at the Corners
an old tavern called the Halfway
house. Daniel Webster used to stop
there for dinner on his trips between
Boston and his home in Mansfield. One
day everybody at the tavern had gone
to circus except a lad of 15 years.

liquors. Webster drove up at dinner
time, ordered his meal and then asked
for a drink. The boy refused him.
Webster urged, threatened. command
ed, but it was of no use. The boy was
firm. When the landlord returned
from the circus and heard of it he
drubbed the boy for losing him a good
customer But the statesman rather
respected the lad for his stubbornness
when his first wrath had gone. He
came again as before. and often gave
the boy quarter"

In order that patent may be OBJ
tanned in France, the three following
conditions are necessary: That the
invention be absolutely new; that it
possess an industrial character; that
it be not contrary to public order or

the country. An invention is not con-
sidered new when, previous to the
date of filing of the application, it has
received sufficient publicity in France

Paul Kuntz, Chicago man, who has
extensive interests in the south, is
now in Arkansas with party of
northern capitalists, has plan for the
solution of the labor problem in the
south. The remedy, says Mr. Kuntz,
lies in the substitution of monkeys
for the negro.
Thus far Mr.. Kuntzs plans only look
to the replacing of the negro by
monkey in the cotton-picking season.
He says he knows monkeys and their
capacities, and is s'confdent that they
can be so trained as TO make the
most efficient kind of eottou-piekers.

The soil is fertile but the principal oc-
cupation is that at the fisheries. The
largest isle, called Rey, alone embraces
half of the population. San Miguel is
the chief place of the fisheries. and
there is a very fine church. The in
habitants are nearly all blacks. They
are descended from the negro popula-
ton, from whom the Spaniards
learned the advantage they could de-
rive from the island riches. In GER
tain of the islands there must have
been diamond beds. Some fine rough
diamonds were formerly procured.
There are two systems for carrying

ma. In certain spots, where the yield
is the most abundant, it Is necessary
to pay the government very high

but a percentage on the pearls discov-
cred is added to it. Generally, these
pearls are rather small. They usually

which reach $50 to 800 francs are al

THE ART OF ORATORY
Success Depends Chiefly Constant and Determined
Practice.

vince; to charm to win, to arouse, to
calm, to enlighten, to persuade-this
is the function of the orator.
Surely, this is a noble mission. A
youth who undertakes to develop his
powers with view to fulfilling it's re-
quirements, even if he never attains
eminence as a public speaker, cannot
fail to have broader mentality, wider
culture, higher ideals, a more vigorous,
well rounded character than If he had
never aspired to be an orator.
Like everything that is worth hav-
ing. the power of effective speaking can
only be developed by continual effort,
by reading with purpose. with con-
slant study. by independent thought,
and by frequent practice in debate or
speaking to audiences.
Association with the great thinkers
OF the past and present through their
writing. and with the eloquent orators
of to-day through their spoken words
whether on public platform or in the
pulpit. are powerful aids to the youth
who is ambitious to become a ready
and eloquent speaker.
