that the Russians are Inundated
over the massacre as it is now known
that the boy who was supposed to
have been murdered by the Jews,
which caused the riot, was murdered
by a Russian gardener and that
the Jews had nothing to do with it.
This fact may teach the Russians a
severe lesson and result in good to

A CHRISTIAN SPIRIT.

The fact that prayers were Of
iered in the Protestant churches in
this country for the recovery OF the
Pope OF Rome, when he was in extre-
mis-, shows that the unfriendly feel
ing heretofore existing between
branches OF the Christian church is
yielding to a better Christian spirit.
We never could understand why there
should be any bitterness between
Christian people OF the various de
nominations when they claim TO be
followers OF the same Savior and aim
ing for the same destiny. That was
not the spirit He exhibited. He was
meek and lowly and even when revil.
ed, reviled not again. His followers
should exhibit the spirit shat was in
Him. The Christian should be act
uated by love, his work charity, and
His aim heaven. With these things
controlling Him there is no room for
controversy or bitterness.

biologists in the employment o.

OF the microbes that produce laziness
1t Is claimed that the germ was dis
covered In the Egyptians more than
three thousand five hundred years
ago, and instead OF remaining with
that nationality it has spread and is
today showing it's effects among al
nations and peoples. The tests now
being made are under the supervision
OF DIR. Charles W. Chiles, and he feels
greatly encouraged at the results.
He is operating in North Carolina at
present, and reports that so far the
germ is found in both white and
colored, especially those in the rural
districts, but the strong probability
is that all the germs in this country
are not to be found in North Caro-
lima.

DEATH OF

Rome. July 2l.-Pope Leo XIII. is
dead. The last flicker OF life expired
at four minutes past 4 o'clock yester-
day afternoon. and the pontiff now lies
at rest.
The period OF over two weeks that
Pope Leo passed In the shadow OF
death was no less wonderful than his
life. His splendid battle against dis
ease was watched the world over with
sympathetic admiration. and ended only
after series of tremendous efforts to
conquer the weakness Of his aged
frame by the marvellous will power of
his mind. The pleuro-pneumonia with
which his holiness had been suffering
was scarcely so responsible for his
death as that inevitable decay of tissue
which ensued upon 80 years OF life.

SENATOR II. T. WlCKHAM.


At this time, when the Legislature
OF Virginia is engaged and will be Tor
some time facing important PROPOSE
tions owing their origin to the new
Constitution, it is absolutely impor-
tant that each and every district In
the State should be represented by Its
ablest men. In this connection IL Is
needless to say that the Senatorial
districts composed Of our neighbor-
ing county OF Caroline and the coun-
ties OF Hanover and King William Is
most fortunate in again being able
70 claim the services Of one OF the
most energetic, influential and intel
lsctual members of either Legislative
body in the person of Senator d. L:
Wickham, the present chairman OF
the Senate Finance Committee. Mr..
Wickham. as may be gathered from
the above, will again be 70 candidate
for reelection to the Senate, ana we
do not hesitate to express the oei'e'
tba, his district will delight in offer
ing him added evidence OF Its APP
proval and appreciation by return
ing him unopposed to his seat IN
that body. This paper does NOS
rronose TO bestow encomiums upon
Senator Wickham, for he needs none
but it is not iulsome praise nor nat
terv but only deserved recognition
OF ability to say that today he stands
as the peer of each and every one OF
his colleagues il either house As
the chairman OF the Finance Com
mittee he is looked upon as al au-
thority upon all matters relating 10
the finances of the State and his
work ON this all important commit
tee has been OF such a character as
TO win for him the unbounded con-
fdence and esteem of the people oil
the entire State. Ever since his en-
trance TO the legislative halls OF Viz
ginis, away back in the SOS, Sena-
tor Wickham has shown that won
derful aptitude for the work assigned
him. which has resulted in his NJ
election time and again at the hands
O, a grateful constituency. Now
after wears of service his district can
do no better than honor the man
who has honored the district by the
efficiency and iaithfulness OF his serv-
ice. and we confidently expect Sena-
tor Wickham to be enthusiastically
returned 10 the Senate without op-
position either in or out othisparty.
