Could Not Get corweII.

After Carter had testified Coroner Nc
cormick announced that he had telephoned
to Chief of Police Black to produce Cor
well at the hearing and requested the
members of the jury to wait few min
utes until their arrival.
Ten minutes passed and Chief Black did
not appear. The coroner becoming irritated
over the delay went to the City Hall to
learn the cause.
He had no sooner gone than a messenger
rushed in, declaring that a mob of thous-
ands was gathered about the City Hall
and that Corwe.l had been released.
At this information, the proceedings of
the inquest held no further interest for the
spectators present and majority left for
the scene Of excitement.
In a few minutes the coroner returned
and announced that Il was impossible, ow-
ing to the crowd about the police station,
to bring Corwen to the inquest.
Foreman Brown then asked If there was
any further evidence and upon being in
formed there was not, asked that every
body but the jurors leave the room. The
jury then deliberated for a short time and
agreed upon the verdict already men
toned.

He BulIt One of the Pyramids.

The British museum, the great Euro
pean storehouse of things out Of the
ordinary, has hundreds Of Egyptian
mummies of all dynasties carefully
slowed away within its walls. Some OF
these are comparatively recent efforts
at embalming, and others date back to
the wide revolving shades Of centu-
ries past" The oldest Of the entire col
lection is the mummy Of Mykerinos.
He was a king in Egypt in what is
known to history as the fourth dynas-
ty" and wore his golden tiara and sat
on the throne Of thrones 1000 years be-
fore the wise men followed the star of
fate till it stopped over that lowly
howell in Bethlehem where the infant
Jesus lay.
Mykerinos was the builder of the
third pyramid at Gizeh, where his
headlesS mummy was discovered in
the year 1886. The stone coffin in
which he was being transported to
England was lost at sea and lay at the
bottom of the ocean for two years be

President Roosevelt has again
shown that he intends to make the
negro the social equal of the white
man If 1t Is In mis- power to do so,
while he Is the President OF the
United States. His latest action
has stirred up the national capital
as nothing else has done for long
time. A few days ago, 1t was In
tended to give the white children
an outing and permission was
granted for them to have the
grounds Immediately back of the
White House for their play ground.
Some of the table furniture from
the White House was to be used
for them from which to eat their
lunch and the Marine Band was
ordered to make music for them.
The managers of the outing were
delighted with the arrangements,
and the little fellows were In the
seventh heaven Of expectation.
When the President learned that
only white children were included
In the programme, he Issued orders
that all children, including negro
children were to be given the same
privileges and allowed to mix and
mingle freely with the white chill
dren and eat with them from the
White House tables, or else the
whole thing was off. That settled
1t and the white children hunted
other quarters for their outing. Peo'
pie may draw their own conclus-
ions.

The hos on the Niger.

Ivory anklets, often very heavy, are
only worn by the Ibo women Of wealth
and Importance, but the metal anklets
worn by others may be many pounds
in weight, and some of them wear huge
brass plates, perhaps foot in diam
eter, which, once fixed to the ankles,
are never removed. The men wear a
single strip of cotton cloth, but those
who come much in contact with the
Europeans are now learning to wear
trousers. Their weapons are flint
locks, bows and spears, the latter both
for hurting and thrusting.
The huts are built Of mud and mat
ting and are quadrangular in shape.
The center is an open courtyard, at
one end Of which is the apartment of
the head Of the house, while the wives
and family are accommodated in other
rooms on the right and left of the
courtyard. There is no furniture or
ornament and but q few household

JOHNSON WAS IN CONTROL
FROM THE FIRST TO THE LAST

Clarke then addressed the conven-
tion and promised that he would make
whirlwind fight against the re-elec-
ton of Senator Hanna. Clarke's ad-
dress as we'll as his nominating speech
of Johnson for governor captivated the
audience.
STARK SPLIT.
In voting for the senatorship en-
dorsement the Stark county delega-
tion was split between Lentz and
Clarke. The original Zimmerman men
together with few of the Johnsonites
voted for Clarke. The silver men To
the number of five or six voted for
Lentz and on the second ballot the
Lentz vote in the Stark county dele
CATION was reduced.
Columbiana cast its solid representa-
ton for Clarke and Mahoning did like
wise. Clarke was anxious to have a
large vote in his old congressional dis
trict including Stark, Mahoning and
Columbiana, and for this reason the
Bryan men overlooked his repudia-
ton of the party in the campaign OF
1896.
On the work of the resolution COM
mittee minority report was made by
the Zimmerman members of the COM
mittee.
The minority report objected to the
endorsement of a senator and many ol
the Johnson supporters themselves
were against the Mayors plan on this
subject This was the real test Of the
voting strength and the Johnson men
won a handsome victory In turning
down the minority report. Stark split
on its vote of the report. the thinner
man men in favor and the Johnson
Zimmerman did not announce his
name as 1t would have shown the real
strength of both factions.
ZIMMERMAN QUITS.
After the committee on resolutions
had secured tho endorsement of its re-
port the Zimmerman men threw up the
sponge. But every resolution brought
up, every committee report made and
every candidate nominated, was oppos-
ed to the last ditch by the Zimmerman
faction.
Although the votes showed that Zim'
norman men in helpless minority
they succeeded in obstructing the bus
mess of the gathering to a great ex'
tent. Uric Sloane was on his high
horse and did not miss an opportunity
to arraign the Johnson faction. When
it came to the announcement Of candi-
dates for lieutenent governor, Sloane
nominated Charles Salen, but he was
not recognized by Chairman CARRIER.
1t is a serious question whether the
bitterness manifested between the two
factions will ever be swept away. Sew

Columbus, Aug. 27.-Notwithstand-
ing the bitter opposition to the en-
dorsement of John II. Clarke for the
senatorship by the rabid Bryan ele-
ment of the party, the Democratic state
convention endorsed the brilliant Cleve-
land lawyer on the second ballot We'd
pesday.
IS The convention was predominated by
the silver men and had it not been for
the introduction of Gaylord M. Saltz'
gaber in the senatorship fight it q
probable that John ]. Lentz would
have received the endorsement. 1t was
a house divided against itself when 1t
came to choosing between Saltzgaber
and Lentz. Scores of the Bryan men
were opposed to Lentz and this opposi-
tion was mainly evident In the heart
of the Northwestern Bryan communi-
ties and in Franklin county the home
of Lentz.
On the other hand the Cleveland mis-
sionaries of Mayor Johnson succeeded
in converting the hostile Democrats,
one by one to the Clarke cause.
On the first ballot with three active
candidates in the field Clarke lacked
eleven votes of the endorsement. The
second ballot was called and stormy
scenes were enacted during the roll
call When Hamilton was called and
the chairman announced the vote, i'm
mediately half dozen delegates arose
and challenged the result. The dele
gates sQuabbled and at last the secre-
tary Of the convention was detailed to
take poll of the Hamilton representa-
ton.
Even after the poll had been taken
numerous delegates took objection to
the figures. The second ballot gave
Clarke the endorsement.
