A GOOD THING.

German Syrup is the special prescrip-
ton of Dr. A. BOschee, celebrated Ger
man Physician, and is acknowledged to
be one of the most fortunate discoveries
in Medicine. 1t quickly cures Coughs,
Colds and all Lung troubles of the sever
est nature, removing, as it does, the
cause of the affection and leaving the
parts in strong and healthy condition.
1t is not an experimental medicine, but
has stood the test of years, giving salts
faction in every case, which its rapidly
increasing sale every season confirms.
Two million bottles sold annually. BOs-
chee's German Syrup was introduced in
the United States in 1868, and is now
sold in every town and vilIagei in the civ
ilized world. Three doses will relieve
any ordinary cough. Price 25 and rs cts.

over.
Christopher Houser, Of Ashburn, Lou
doun county, died at his residence yester-
day after short illness from cancer OF

ed by one daughter, four sons, one broth
er John Houser, of Leesburg) and one
sister Mrs. John Lefevre, OF Ashburn).
As a reward for his action in saving

5 wears to 10 years in the penitentiary.
Lewis was sent to prison on charge OF
incendiarism
A white man has been arrested in
Madison county charged with the brutal
murder of Mrs. Lowry, of that county,

against him is very strong, a negro
man is also suspected of being implicat-
ed in the murder and his arrests expect
ed at any time.
Russell Hehin, of Warren county, was
brought to the hospital in Winchester
yesterday with a severe gunshot wound
in his face from the accidental discharge

although his former confessions failed to
convict his alleged coconspirators, Prose
cutting Attorney R. E. Byrd made a plea
for leniency for the frebug for turning
States evidence. Rhodes was then SEN
fenced to four years in the penitentiary

RUSSIA AND MANCHURIA.

The conference of prominent Russian
officials at Port Arthur has ended and
the last special train departed for Mos
COW, Tuesday. EMULATION over Rus
sia's increasing power in Manchuria was
the dominant note in the gathering.
The possibility of taking any backward
steps are scofed as if mentioned by out
siders. 1t was admitted that the war
possibility was discussed, but it was
denied that that was the object of the
conference. The evidence of the in
crease of warlike preparations since the
arrival of General Kuropafkin, the min
lister of war, aud of the intention to
bring more troops to Manchuria are
abundant. Orders were given to Port
Arthur contractors last week for an i'm
mediate supply of building materials for
barracks, to accommodate 90, 900, soldiers
to be shipped to Hardin.
Dispatches received at the foreign of
flee in Paris from st. Petersburg and
Tokyo indicate that the relations between
Russia and Japan have greatly improved
within the past fortnight, and it is now
believed that the two governments will
soon arrive at complete understanding.
The conference between Secretary Hay
and Theodore Hansen, charge d'afaires
of the Russian Embassy. in Washington,
on Tuesday, regarding the Manchurian
situation was of the most satisfactory ma
ture. The japanese Minister, Kagoro
Takahira, who was compelled to forego
his trip to Japan because of the continued
delay of the departure from Washington
of Count Cassini, called at the State De-
partment yesterday to inquire regarding
the conference between the Secretary
and Mr.. Hansen. The japanese Minis
ter has been given to understand that
Mr.. Hays policy in Manchuria is solely
to secure open ports to the world.
1t is said in Washington today that
China has notified the State Department
that she intends to open ports in Nam
churia to the commerce OF the world as
soon as possible. Minister Takahira, of
Japan, called at the State Department
this morning, but brought no news and
it is apparent that he was not giving the
above important information.

Mother Jones to Visit President.

Oyster Bay, N. Y, July Ex-senator
Lodge, of Massachusetts,, is spending the
day with President Roosevelt at Saga
more Hill. The news that "Mother"
Jones and her band are headed for Oyster
Bay is not received with any demonstra-
tons Of joy at the executive offices. Prep
arations are being quietly made to head
off the little army if they attempt to
storm Sycamore Hill without first receiy-
ing permission to call. If necessary the
little band Of secret service men will be
reinforce by police and detectives from
Brooklyn, President Roosevelt would
probably be willing to meet Mother"
Jones, ifshe made request in the usual
formal way through Secretary Barnes.
The President objects, however, to having
his castle s'stormed."

THURSDAY EVENING, JULY 10, 100;

THE LYNcHTYG yesterday morning o.
a man in Flemingsburg, KY, for the
ALLEGED reason that the law was moving
at too slow a pace was bad example To
set in the restless age in which we are
living. The man may have deserved
death, but jury composed of his peers
had recommended that he be sent to the
penitentary for life. 1t is true he had
taken an appeal, but the decision OF the
appellate court should have been awaited
The precedent is fearful to contemplate
as an irresponsible mob can at any time
urge the laws delay as an excuse 1ol
their acts The victim of the lynchlng
fever in the case alluded to was
white man, not a negro ravisher, and
the act is ominous, proving con-
clusiyely that mob fury is a boomerang
or n sword with double edge, and that
members of both races have their lives
ieoparded when they are placed in Jail.
The bowling of mobs, which always
lose their senses. is fearful, as all know
who have witnessed their procedures OF
PREPARATIONS, and the senseless scenes
in Alexandria two years ago when
white man. more terrified than Belshaz'
Ear of old. cowed and trembled as ne
was hurried to neighboring county
for safety. Should people who thirst fol
blood become impressed with the idea
that it is within their province to take
people from iails and lynch them be-
cause the wheels of law do not revolvC
fast enough to please them terrible
condition of affairs will follow. In this
connection it may be suggested thai
courts should act within a reasonable
time in cases where persons are charged
with felonies, so that lawless classes
NAV have no such excuses to urge as
that given by the Flemingsburg mob.
The action of Judge Barley of the
Corporation Court of this city in sum-
moning special juries for such cases is
an example which should be followed in
other places.

MiIlionaires Take up a Negro PLY
stefan.

Newport, r. l., July 16.-Gordon
Mckay, the millionaire shoe manufac-
turer, has a negro physician. Mckay
had for his physicians DIR. William T..
Bull and DR.. Thomas +. Kenefick, OF
New York, but az they did not succeed
in restoring him to health they called
into consultation DIR. George Wheat
land.
Under Wheatland's treatment Mckay
recovered, and now he is 50 grateful that
he has the negro doctor as one of his
most frequent callers at his villa, al
though he is now quite well again.
Not long after the Mckay affair
George w. Weld, Boston millionaire,
became i'll, and he, too, sought the serv-
ices of Wheatland. Again the negro
doctor was so effective that he was
promptly introduced into the social set
of the Yields and is frequent visitor at
their house.

for October Il, 10 and 16, has been
postponed until October %, 30 and 80,
on account of conflict in dates with the
Richmond Horse Show and the Presby-
terrain Synod of Virginia at Abingdon.
Does this mean that the old Con-
federates are to give way to the Presby-
terians. or that the latter want TO attend
the Horse Show, or what? This needs
further explanation.

Slayer of Women and Children to Die

Hamilton, o., July 16.-A verdict OF
murder in first degree, which means death
in the electric chair, was brought in by
the Jury in the stranger" Knapp case,
at 1885 this morning. Knapp paled
visibly as he heard his doom. The YER
dict was a complete surprise to him as
he felt sure he would not get death
sentence. Only yesterday he bet 25
cents with a fellow prisoner at the Jail
that he would escape the death sentence.
Alfred A. Knapp, the self confessed
stranger of FIVE women and girls, had a
career of crime hardly without parallel.
He spent two-thirds of his life in peni-
tentiaries and jails, but for four or five
murders, to which he confessed, he had
gone free and unsupported until few
unguarded words led to his arrest. For
years he had been stranger, he ad-
mitted, bouncing upon innocent children
and the wives Of his bosom alike and
choking them to death. He was twice
in State prison for iendish assaults upon
women. Since early childhood he had
been a fiend and degenerate.

If the old superstition attached to St.
Swithin's day is to be considered as a
correct criterion of barometrical condi-
tons, the residents of this section will
enjoy fair weather for the next forty
days. The anniversary of st. Swithin's
day occurred yesterday, and, according
TO the ancient tradition, the weather
having been fair on that anniversary,
the same conditions will prevail for
forty days following.
