Lesson in Chaplain Milburn's Life

Lesson in Chaplain Milburn's Life.
1t was Of the late William H. MIL
burn, the blind preacher chaplain
Of the house, and afterward of the
Senate, that William r. Morrison
once said: "Mr. Milburn is a man
who fears God, hates the devil and
votes the straight ticket" Mr.. Mil
burns life illustrates what one can
do in the face Of hardships. He was
totally blind before becoming of age,
but became Methodist clergyman,
successful lecturer and author, keep
ing at his work until few months
before his death at the age Of eighty.
The newspapers were read to him
every day and he kept fully posted on
passing events.

RACE WAR MAY
FOLLOW FLOCCING
Dreadful Condition of Affairs
in a Missouri
Town.

FAYETTE, Mo-, Feb. "a race
war is threatened here as the result
of the public whipping of three ne
groes on the court house steps Friday
night. A committee of the Law and
Order league took three negroes from
their homes and whipped them pub
licly for alleged misconduct Two of
them were women. Since then the ne
grOes and white people have been at
swords point, and it is said twenty
five negro families have been fright
ened into leaving this vicinity.
The recent killing of Harry O'Don-
nell, reputable citizen, was charged
to negroes and did much to stir up
enmity. The whites have openly
threatened to battle with the negroes
and drive them from Fayette and
vicinity.
The negro man who was whipped
Friday night made a desperate re-
sistance. It took several men to carry
him to the whipping post. He cursed
his captors as the lash was applied,
which resulted in the whip being
welded only the more vigorously.
When the ordeal was ended the negro
was so weak from loss of blood that
he was put to bed instead of being
driven from town. The women, who
were not whipped severely, were TAX
en- to the outskirts and told to go.

Grocers' Association Drafts
New Garnishment Bill,
Which They Claim Is
Satisfactory to Federation
OfLabor-Exemption Made
$8 Per Week.

An exemption of SO per week is the
feature OF a new bill for a garnish-
ment law advocated by the retailers
associations.
The bill is intended as a substitute
Tor the pending Hinton and Soule bills.
1t was prepared by the grocers' as
sociation, and Secretary Fred Mason
says 1t is the result of the conference
between representatives of his asso-
clatlon and the Federation of Labor at
Federation hall Sunday afternoon.
The measure wipes out entirely the
present $25 exemption and the $40
judgment clause and makes a fat ex-
empt1on of $8 per week. The wages
OF minors are exempted from garnish-
ment proceedings on the debts of their
parents, and all debts contracted prior
to the enactment of the proposed
measure are not to come under its
provisions. The text of the bill, save
the enacting clause, follows:

Section 1. The wages of any person
IN any sum not exceeding eight ($S) dol

Third Assistant Postmaster General

business in the rural free delivery

it was necessary for the sender to

Rural carriers also are required to

dressees are required to leave for the
delivery of their mail to the store
keeper, registered mail also will be de-
hvered, except such as is indorsed by

FOREIGN OFFICES
MISINFORMED
Excuse for Germany and
Italy Asking More of
Venezuela.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 9.--Al-
Though Mr.. Bowen and the other ne
gctiators are closely guarding the pro-
visions of the several protocols, it is
understood tonight that the demands
Which are known to exist in the Ger
man and Italian agreements as thew
are at the present drafted, which Mr..
Bowen cannot agree to, concern an
increased payment by Venezuela prirr
to The Hague's decision regarding the
aihes contention for the preferential
consideration in the settlement of their
claims. 1t Is reported that Germany
asks that she receive in addition to the
SZI'5OO cash that Mr.. Bowen has
agreed to pay, a certain percentage of
the customs receipts until the remain
der of the $4,000 demanded in the
orlglnal uItlmatum addressed by Ger
many to President Castro last autumn
is paid.
Italy, it is believed, is insisting On q
similar demand, though the amount
asked for in her ultimatum was over
$5OO,OOC Both Germany and Italy
suggest that this money be
paid in monthly installments out of the
customs duties, but even under this
arrangement it would require eight
months for the payment of the entire
sums.
1t is the principle, however, to which
Mr.. Bowen SO strenuously objects and
which he has informed the German and
italian envoys he cannot subscribe TO-

VIENNA, Feb. Sit is asserted here
that Bulgaria is determined to invade
Turkey in the event of an insurrec-
tion in Macedonia, and that the Mace
donian element in Bulgaria is SO strong
that nothing can prevail. against it.
Preparations for a great rising are
proceeding quite openly. Four hun
dred officers in the Bulgarian army
are asking for a prolonged leave which
will not be refused, in order to assist
the rising in Macedonia.
1t is reiterated that seven bands,
aggregating 5000 men, already have
been formed. The three largest bands
are led by Coils. Yankoff Sarafoff and
Zontoheff These will spread through
out Macedonia under daring leaders,
and it is calculated that they will soon
be reinforced q hundred fold.
The unusually mild weather now pre-
vailing in the Balkans is held to favor
an early outbreak, the only difficulty
being the lack of funds, which 1t is
intended to overcome by the forcible
levy Of patriotic tax on Macedonians.
1t is further asserted that if Bulgaria
is unsuccessful she is assured of Rus
sian support.
Turkish Mobilization a Menace.
SOFIA, Feb. 9.-Having received Off
cial information regarding Turkeys
decision to mobilize two army corps
at Adrianople and Monastir, the Bull
garian government today addressed
representations to the powers, invok-
ing their good offices at Constantinople
to procure the cessation of the Turkish
military preparations. 1t is felt here
that while Turkeys reinforcement of
her troops in Macedonia may be justi-
fed in view of the internal situation
and the Austro- -Servian military prep
arations, the mobilization at Adrian
ople can be regarded only as a menace
to Bulgaria. 1t is stated that the gov
ernment will refrain from any counter
demonstration and mobilize the Bull
garian army only in the case of ex-
treme necessity, it being fully realized
that even a successful conflict with
Turkey would mean financial ruin to
Bulgaria.

found that along that road there was

that earnings Were increasing and that

AMERICAN OFFICER
KILLED BY 'P|NOS
Remnant of Insurgent Army
Defeated by Constabu-
larry.

MANILA, Feb. "A force of 100
constables under Inspector KeithIy,
yesterday, defeated 200 insurgents near
Mariquina, seven miles from Manila,
after a severe engagement in which
Inspector Harris and one of the con-
stebulary were killed and two other
men of the constabulary were wound
ed. Inspector Harris home was at
Atlanta, Ga.
The body of insurgents formed the
main force of the irreconcilable gen
eral, San Miguel. The constabulary
was divided into three detachments,
which were scouting in the Mariquina
valley. The detachment commanded
by Inspector Harris came upon the
enemy who were in a strongly in
trenched position. Inspector Harris
fell at the first volley, being hit five
times. The constabulary, although
outnumbered, held it's position until
Inspector Keithly, with the main force,
arrived, when the enemy were put to
rout. Their headquarters were cap
tured and burned and the constabu-
larry seized the records of Gen. San
Miguel, who asserts that he succeeded

The Philippine commission has pass
ed an act governing the constabulary.
1t creates a summary court for the
trial of light offenses; gives the civil
courts jurisdiction over the serious
offenses; forbids the constabulary
to administer the water cure, or resort
to whipping or other punishments in
order to obtain information from the
natives, and provides for the drastic
punishment Of such offenses. In the
measure are incorporated many of the
regulations governing the American
