Rutledge, will pay return engage
ment in this city next Monday and
Tuesday evenings, at the opera house.

impression this company made couple

this capable company in two distinctly
different plays. Mr.. Adams will sing
several new songs, and as he is gener-
al favorite all over this section, there
will be no disappointment to those who
go.
Since writing the above the manager
Of the company informs the Examiner
that they will play the Wild Irish
woman" Monday night and Dora"
Tuesday evening.

Complications followed this event,

mentioned her spirit took It's flight.
The funeral took place on Monday
from the Presbyterian church under
the ritualistic direction of the Ladies

She was loving wife, kind and

many homes. May she rest IN that
security of christian peace, that is

The town of Franklin can pride
itself of having been the first and
only place in the country to dem
onstrate the proper remedy
against the lynching epidemic so
widespread throughout the land,
some weeks follc wing the incident
in our city when a negro culprit
was summarily tried, convicted
and sentenced to the penitentiary
for robbing a white lady.
There can be no doubt but that
the dilatory character of the courts
in trying offenders and the uncer-
tainty of condign punishment
have had too much to do with the
commission of crimes by negroes
in the past. AS a matter of fact.
however, it must be admitted that
there are certain crimes committed
by negroes against white women
which so incense communities as
to render lynch law pardonable
and justifiable, but even were
these criminals given summary
punishment there is no doubt but
thus assured, the people would
forego their anger and allow the
majesty of the law to prevail in
many cases. The people and
authorities of Franklin and st.
Mary are to be conplimented for
having solved the lynching evil
in a great measure.
