To Keen Negroes out.

A. ]. Bower, editor OF the Chester
ton, Ind, Tribune, clerk Of the state
legislature and a we'll known Republi-
can of Indiana, has started Il move
ment for the exclusion Of negroes from
Portland county Of that state. Bowscr
admits that he has always entertained
a deep-rootcd antipathy toward the
negro race and declares that it is the
time for communities having few
ncgroesSto protect themselves against
any further increase from the south
crn states. He says: The settle
mcnt Of negroes from the south in this
county means that fear would enter
the home Of every farmer in the coln-
ty and our wives, daughter and sweet
hearts would be exposed to fate mole c
terrible than death in any form,
property values would 90 down and
lynchingS would follow" In com

Worth Remembering.

Don't be afraid to blush. 1t is be-
coming. a sudden flush accomplishes
more in Il inolncnt than the sustained
efforts Of the statuesquc beauty
Don't be jealous Of the beauty,
youth and success Of others. Ieal-
ousy plants ugly lines in the face.
Don't think it enough to be a
beauty; in order to approach pcrfec-
tion, Il woman should try to improve
herself morally and intellectually as
well as physically.
Don't imagine that in order to he a
belle you must he great beauty.
Charm Of manner, a beautiful voice ol
accomplishment turns many a plain
woman into Il belle.
Don't gush If you want to be at.
tractive. You may not be beautiful,
but If good tempered, possessed Of the
giftof looking on the golden side of
things and never given to gushing you
may be more attractive than many
girls who can boast OF their beauty.
Don'5 think that women are less
beautiful than formerly. There is
greater beauty now, and more Of it
than at any time in the worlds his
tory. We may congratulate ourselves
that we live in the most beautiful age
OF the world. Don't fail to appreciate
the fact that while beauty may not
bring happiness, it is nevertheless Il
power. 1t is to Il woman what CAPT
tai is to a merchant. It's absence may
not be Il misfortune, but It's culture is
wise and proper.

Pointed Paragraphs.

Male gossips are the worst of the
breed.
Dirty streets and dirty politics are
twain evils.
The.thread of love story usually
winds up with a tie.
Shads should be pretty sure Of any
thing they feel in their bones
Mustard plasters come under the
head OF drawing instruments.
A man dosen't necessarily lead a
dogs life because his wife pets him.
When an individul minds his own
business he is one kind Of monopolist
Too many men waste valuable time
talking about the things they. are 60
ng to do,
Occasionally women make fools of
men, but they are not responsible for
all the fools.
Don't think because a man is TAX
Ing lessons on the harp that he doesn't
expect to live much longer.
A hens teeth are almost as scarce
Us are the people who worry them
selves to death because they are shy
of wisdom.
When rich old man marries a

victim Of homemade grccn-goods

The once beautiful city OF Krus-
chevo is a heap Of ruins. The women
and children are homeless, exposed to
the weather and famine. The town is
rendered unlnhabitable by the odor OF
corpses which are. being gnawed by
dogs and pigs, the Turkish authorities
refusing to allow them to be rescued
under the preteXt that an inquest will
be held.
Aug. 2, the day fixed for the Bull
garian attack on KruSchcvO, band Of
900 insurgents, headed by Patroif, en-
tered the town, discharging their
rifles. The terrified Inhabitants re-
NAMED in door. The baud first burn
ed tile residence Of the mudir and
maSsacred the garrison of Turkish sol
diers and the officials Of the town, but
the invaders spared the Turkish
harems.
On the following morning the kom-
ftajis established a provisional govern
ment and established police and a
municipality. They killed 10 Chris
tians who they believed had betrayed
the plans Of the committee. The no.
tables Of the towns were compelled to
contribute $4,000 to the revolutions
ary fund.
The Turks, Informed Of the capture
tof the town, sent from Perlepr three
squadrons of calvary which were at
\ tackled en- route and compelled to re-
tire with a loss Of 100 killed. On
Aug. l3 the Turks concentrated seven
battalions and one battery at Krusch-
evo. They made an offer to the Kom-
itajls to allow the women and chill
dren to leave the town. This pro-
5 posal was declined and the lombard
ment began.
Tue Komitajis quickly abandoned
the town and escaped to the neigh
boring forest, where pursuit was i'm
\ possible. The Turks entered the
town, and guided by Turkish villagers
from the neighborho0d, attacked the
houses Of the Greek notables and or
dered the inmates to be searched and
stripped. They seized the money and
jewels and ravished the women, those
who resisted being Immediately killed.
4 Greek priest who sought to protect
his daughter was killed. The girls
ear rings were torn out and her hand
was chopped off to secure bracelet.
When the houses had been pillaged
the Turkish peasants loaded their
horses with whatever the soldiers left
and the residences were burned The
sack Of Krushchevo lasted three days,
during which time the women and
children remained without food and
4 shelter and at the mercy of the SOL
diers and the bashl bazouks.

Tho I.n,y,s Delay and I.ynch,ng.

In q significant uttcranCe on the
alarming prevalence of mob rule and
lynching and the remedy therefore
Justice Brewer Of the United States
supreme court renewS his suggestion
made some years ago for the doing
away with appeals in criminal cases
He points out that for a hundred
years there was no appeal from judg-
lnent OF conviction in criminal cases
In our federal courts ard no review
except in q few cases, two justices
sitting. a difference Of opinion on a
question Of law was certified to the
supreme court. In England, he OBJ
serves, there is no appeal in criminal
cases, although 4 question Of law
may be reserved by the pres ding
judge for the consideration his co.
leagues. AS the Spartanburg Journal
says "Justic Brewers recommendation
is a tacit recognition of the fact that
the courts are in part to-, blame for
the spread and prevalence or 81 the
lynching manila. The constitutional
right TO "a speedy trial which is
guaranteed to The accused by the con
stitutlOn inhereS also to the public,
which is the accuscr. Courts are
sometimes oyerrulcd and brushed
aside by mobs for the reason that
speedy trials are not granted. Ere
quentiy judges show too much tender
ness for the criminal, even when his
guilt is clear, and too little for the
public which has been wronged in the
person Of the criminals victim.
Criminal prosecutions fail in their
main purpose and are comparative
failures when judges regard the courts
as agencies for the punishmentS Of
criminals and not for the prevention
OF crime. Justice, to have any deter
ring effect, must be swift as well as
sure. The present administration Of
criminal law gives too much scope to
the skilled criminal lawyer 1t is
most difficult and expensive to convict
criminal who can raise the money to
pay the cost of carrying on a long and
tedious legal controversy over the
points" which a criminal lawyer Of the
first rank can always discover and
raise in his clients favor, although in
dependents Of the question Of his guilt.
1t is hardly probable that appeals
in criminal cases will ever be alto
gether abolished, nor is it clear that
they ought to be, since judges are
fallible, but appeals should be greatly
restricted and made very much less
common. 1t is apparent that there is
urgently needed judicial reform that
will permit the machinery Of justice
to move with greater celebrity and
