Tennis is the only other form of
athletics which is at present attract
ing any attention. Several of the uni

The annual fall tournament at the uni

some good contests are expected.
Altogether the opening of the COL

Every "Chatauqua' North. and al
most every writer of note up there is
adding to the literature on lynching,
andyet he South is moving on in her
own sweet way. She has laid down a
law which is nearly as Interchangeable
as that of the Modes and Persians, that
when negro outrages and murders
(Which last he generally adds to the
first crime) a white woman he thereby
becomes an outlaw, and may be killed
by anybody just as a wild beast. Th
mode of killing is left to the individ.
ual taste of the person or persons who
do the killing, but die that creature
must. If the sociologists and negro.
maniacs wish to change this law they
cannot do SO by any denunciation Of
those who will not allow their women
to be outraged save under deaths pen
atty. They must lay the axe at the
root of the tree. They must put ar
end to the crime, even if it be by oblit'
GRAFTON of the negro. The Offense must
cease before the punishment ceases.

A Turkish soldier week before last
shot and killed Russian consul who
was belaboring him with whip be-
cause the soldier had not saluted him
as consuls, and especially Russian
consuls, should be saluted. Russia
demanded redress. In compliance
with this request Turkey had the sol.
der shot, had another soldier who
does not seem to have had anything to
do with the case, sent to prison for Is
years, and now offers $50, 900 as indem-
nifty for the consul, who, in this coun-
try, would not bring so cents. But
Russia is not satisfied. She is sending
her feet into Turkish waters to enforce

knows. The way Russia bullies Turkey
and all other powers about her for
that matter. Is something marvellous.
1t would afford pleasure to the world
generally if some power should take q

front, by giving his army any navy a
decent, but severe threshing, such as
Napoleon administered to the Russian
army on several notable occasions.

There seems to be some effort by
politicians In the State to dlscredit the
primary plan adopted by the Demo-
Gratis. The plan has not had a real
trial as yet, SO that no one can tell
what it's merits or dement's are. It is
likely that those who lose will cry
fraud, as this is the custom when de-
feats come, but to condemn a plan
before it has had fair trial is to ad-
NIT that there are those who scent
defeat. and want to accomplish their
ends by cutting off an expression of
the real will Of the people. Evidently
there is an effort being made to prevent
the people from speaking on the sub
jects now very important to them, by
doing away with their appearance at
the polls.

NOT GOING TO THE HOT SPRINGS

There is some feeling, we find, in the
minds of many Virginia lawyers who
are members of the Va. Bar Associa
ton, over the treatment accorded
them by the Hot Springs at their ses
sion which begins there today. They
have indirectly been informed, or al
least the impression is in their minds
that the Hot Springs never cared te
have that body meet there, and only
submitted to it on account of policy
and because there was insistence or
the company's so doing by certain off
GERS of the Association. The treat
M nt accorded last year was
complained of by many. in that they
had great difficulty in getting atten.
ton, that they we're showed off into
the worst portions of the hotel. and
when their bills were rendered they
we're not made out at the rate adver.
tised, but on some pretext Of bath OF
southern exposure. etc.. ETC., were IN.
creased, beyond what the party had
expected from the advertised rates,
and being unaccustomed to the Van.
kee mode of enquiring into details,
and unaccustomed to the devices of
fashionable modern hotels they had not
anticipated. Then too it was complained
of that officers of the Association who
had been most active in bringing th
Association there seemed to have the
best of everything.
This year the rate has been increas-
ed. and in addition the Association e
members are politely requested to
leave Immediately after their session
is closed, which invitation is covertly
couc he'd in withdrawal of rates to
them after August Oath. This
is done to make room for the
American Bar Association, a body
much more to the taste Of the manage
ment Of the Hot Springs We are in
formed, than the Virginia affair which
precedes it. In addition to this invi-
tatiOn to leave before the arrival of the
distinguished members of the Ameri-
can Bar Association the impecuneous
members of the Virginia Bar Associ.
tion, as they are designated about the
Hot, are expected to be the entertain
ers of the American. and IN the event
the Virginians accept the Hot Springs
invitation and depart early and
promptly. they are still expected on
account of the fame which Virginians
enjoy for hospitality, to leave their
several cheques behind to defray tae
expenses of the banquet which will be
eaten and drunk by the Americans.
The contrast between the treatment
accorded them, they say, by the White
Sulphur Springs two years ago and the
present treatment by the Hot is so at
variance the one with the other, and
the further fact that it has some how
gotten abroad that the Hot Springs is
submitting to this invasion by Vir-
sinians solely because the position of

itic to occasionally allow her Judges

THE APPROACHING PRIMARY.

On Saturday. August 10th, the DEM
oeratic primary election will be held
Throughout the county for various
county officers and for members of the
Legislature. This is a very important
election and should be attended by
every Democrat who has the good of
the country at heart. The officers to
be chosen should be good men, the
very best we have, and every man
should feel interest enough in the cleo
tion to spare the time to go to the polls.
At this election an expression of the
Democrats will be made as to who they
want for their United States Senator,
that is the people are expected to Sc.
lect as candidates for members of the
Legislature persons who will vote for
their choice for U. 8. Senator. For
instance it ia understood that the Hon.
Thomas 8. Martin the present o. 8.
Senator, is a candidate for reelection
to that Office, and that the Hon. A. j.
Montague the present Governor OF
Virginia, is also candidate for that
Office. If any OF our Democratic friends
want Mr.. Martin elected they Will vote
for such men for the Legislature as
will support Mr.. Martin. II any Of
them want Governor Montague elected
to the Senate they will vote for suct
men for the Legislature as will sup
port Gov. Montague.
There has been an effort to avoid Of
defeat an expression OF preference fol
the United States Senator, but th'
effort is looked on as trick of woult
be ruling politicians, gentlemen VIII
assume to dictate to the people of Vir
ginia just what they must do, and j
by chance the people get an opportuni

some device is resorted to, to defea

WHIPPING A WOMAN IN GEORGIA.
There is a good deal Of noise just
low over the whipping OF a woman In
he Georgia penitentiary. The whip
ping of anybody is brutality which
IS repulsive to the average human be-
ing-and especially 80 when the re-
cipient is woman. The convict
woman who was whipped was type
writer-we are told-who was said to
be refined and educated, and well con
nected. She had lust for diamonds
and took some which did not belong to
her, hence was convicted. Mr.. Tenn
pie Graves of Ca, about the time this
whipping took place had spoken at
Chatauqua, N. T., on the subject OF
Iynching. He had said among other
things that the Southern white man
held his women in higher esteem than
any other man on earth. Now MIR.
Graves 10 called upon to answer why
it Is, If Southern men hold women in
such high esteem, 80 high that when
one of them comes home and finds that
his wife has been outraged and MUIR
dered by a negro, he and bis neighbors
go out and If possible catch and hang
the negro without trial by jury-one
| of these same Southern men should be
found whipping young tender girl
| in brutal and ferocious way !? "How
does this act and your Chatauqua
speech coincide, Mr.. Graves - they
ask.
What Mr.. Graves has replied to thit
we do not know. But what most
Southern men would say, would bt
that when women become convicts
they are not held in that high esteem
which pure, upright and virtuoul
woman enjoys-the same deep senti
ment of esteem cannot. surround he
which those of her sex who have no
fallen enjoy. But all decent Southern
men regret, In fact loathe, such actiol
as this man Allgood, who whipped tn
girl, has been guilty of. In the frs
