WITH DRAWN REVOLVER.
Brooklyn Police Protected Wife Mur-
 derer from Mob.

derer from Mob.
 New York, July 20.-Only by draw ing their revolvers and threatening to shoot to kill, did several Brooklyn po- licemen prevent mob from wreaking vengeance on Frederick Kriselmyer, after he had shot his wife andt his stepdaughter. Up to the doors of the Hamburg avenue police station the clamoring mob went, crying Lynch him." and it was necessary to call out the reserves. Kriselmyer was so badly beaten before the policemen rescued him that it was necessary to call an ambulance. Ii
 Although he is 60 years old, Krisel- myer was driven to the shooting by jealousy of his wife, whom he married three years ago and. who is 54 years old. She was in the house in which they lived and in the station house he asserted that she had been receiv- ing the attentions of wealthy butch CT for some months and that he saw her and her daughter with this man just before the shooting.
 Tn the hospital, suffering from three bullet wounds, his wife, said, in reply to his assertions. that he was crazy. The shooting followed quarrel dur ing which Kriselmyer was reminded that he did not own the house.

DEFENDS THD NEGRO | & Rev Horace Miller Says He is no More
 Rrutsl Than tha White Man.

Brutal Than the White Man.
 New York, July 20.--In sermon at the Mount Talbot Methodist Episcopal church Rev Horace Miller, a colored minister, said:
 T have devoted years of study to the question, and I find that the negro is not bit more brutal than the white man. Not 10 per cent of the crimes charged up against the colored man are due to him alone.
 ''No race needs 8 higher education than the negro. He is becoming more criminal because he cannot get work. If he does get work the pay is such that it is not sufficient to live on. IT the south had given the negro an honest dollar for an honest days work, or even an honest half dollar, the negroes would not flock to New York to become criminals. The quickest way to solve the negro problem is to employ him"

"A "w1D0W-WoMAN.".

Two or three of our editorial friends
are poking fun at the writer and accus-
ing us of using the expression widow
woman" though we do not remember
saying SO. However, here's story that
perhaps fits the case:
Way down east, in the old days when
the American merchant marine led the
world in the number and beauty of its
clipper ships, there was builder of this
class of ships who had started life as a
poor and uneducated boy, but by brains
and industry had become rich in the
shipbuilding business. One time, as one
OF his ships approached completion, the
old man took it upon himself to name
tAe vessel without calling in any assist
ance and sent away to the foundry in
Boston for some metallic letters to fasten
on the ships stern. When the letters
arrived he gave them to workman and
told him to go and fasten them in the
proper position for the name. The man
took the package, opened it and tried to
make the four letters he found therein
spell some name that he knew-but in
vain. So he had TO return to the old
man to ask the name he had chosen. The
old man "cussed" him fora know-noth.
ing and told him the name was ASIA
"Why," said the workman, '.you haven't
got the right letters. = '.'"What letters have
your" asked the builder. 'sA-S-H-E'
spelled the workman. ''Wall," growled
the old man, eff they don't spell "A she,
what in do they spell?'
Now, dear brethren, if "a she widow
woman" isn't widow woman-what is
she?

DEVILS LAKE VS.. VALLEY CITY. 4
The editors are discussing the; matter
of the best place for the summer meet
ing of the Association. Some OF the
boys from the southern part OF the state
want it at Valley City and the Chatauqua
people want the association to meet
there as it has in the.past. The editors
from the southern part Of the state urge
that Devils Lake is too far for them to
go and itWould only be fair that the
meeting be held part Of the time in
their part OF the state. Personally. we
have noiparticular choice, but there are
some reasons that should have weight in
the sele :tion. 81 53
First: Ithas been proven by expert
ence i'll the past that it is very difficult,
if not impossible, to get any number Of
editors together for purely business
meeting, unless there are other attract
ions. Ofcourse, this ought not to be
so, but we are speaking offacts.
