Kansas is credited with one
'lynching for the holidays. A
Kansas negro, while drunk, shot
Il policeman. A mob took the
negro and hanged him; the rope
broke before he was dead and
they then cut his throat and hang
ed him again. ommenting on
this, a paper published in that sec
ton said that whenever the ne
,groes settle in the north or east
the people begin to act like regu-
lar southerners. This is incor.
rect; they act like regular
hoodlums and barbarians, not
allowing negro to live in many
towns.

In south Mississippi white.c ca

In south Mississippi white, caps
are forcing negroes to leave Ger
tain com munities; in east Missis.
sippi labor agents who attempt to
induce negroes to 60 to Louisiana
to work have been warned TO
cease their operations. Labor is
scarce in all parts of the state.
The white-caps in Amite and Lin,
coin counties belong to the igno-
rant class of whites and few of
them are property owners. And
yet with such demand for the
negro's labor in every part of the
south, it is suggested by Senator
Morgan and others that the Phil
ippine islands be used by him for
his future home and that he be
encouraged to 60 there.

The latest probable candidates
for governor are A. @. May, rail

strongly urged to run by their

that one or the other will do so.

The Psalm Of Life.
At Sixteen 4.


Tell me not in mournful numbers
Love Is but an empty dream.
The beau is dead that slumbers
And men are not what they seem
Love is real. love is earnest:
Courtship surely is our goal
Once wed, thou ne'er returnest
To win and flirt another soul.
Not enjoyment, and not sorrow-
Beaux fill up our destined way:
Let us act that each tomorrow
We have more beaux than today.
At Thirty.
My thirty years now are feeting.
And my heart. though stout and strong,
Like muffled drum is beating
For the beaux my heart did wrong.
In the wolis broad field of battle,
In the bivouac of life.
The love they once did prattle
To me something bout a wife,
I'll trust no beau. however pleasant:
Let the dead past bury its dead,
For the dudes were ever present
With wooden heart and empty head.
The lives OF dandy men remind us
We can make our lives sublime.
And departing leave behind us
Dudes stuck in the sands of time.
Dudes that perhaps another,
Sailing DER life's solemn main
forlorn and shipwrecked mother
Finding may take him home again.
Then let's all be up and doing.
With heart OF full content,
For the beaux have quit pursuing
Since my thirty years are spent.

DRINK.
Fine Presentation at the Play at the
 Hyperion.

Fine Presentation at the Play at the
 Hyperion.
 Drink" is story terseIy told, with great dramatic capabilities. The story is enc of crime and want. brought about through intoxication and dissipation. and any one who witnessed the produc- tion of the play at the Hyperion last evening will never forget the moral les- son which was taught. The entire play centers around the character of Cou- peau, which was portrayed by the fa- nous English actor, Charles Warner, in masterly manner.
 The part is one of the most difficult which could possibly be created. as in order to give it a proper rendition 1t is necessary fer the portrayer to depict every phase of human feeling. It has been truly said that MT. Warner lives a life during every production. passing from the heights of happiness to the lowest depths of despair. His transi- tions from comedy to pathos were so beautifully rendered that he held the attention of his audience from start to finish. He first portrays the happy sweetheart HS uSAt ueFlCLS lAS hcPPS father and husband; and lastly shows ruined life brought about through Drink
 The play consists of six acts, hand somely staged. MT. Warner is an Eng lishman and has played the part of Coupeau more than 5000 times, not only in various parts of this country, but in all parts of Europe. He receivnd loud applause and many curtain calls last evening and he made brief speech at the conclus' on of the fourth act, which was very appropriate.
 ucy Wilson Bailey as Gervaise is an emotional actress of great ability and she played her part in splendid man. ner.
 Other members of the cast especially worthy of mention are Jennie Buckle. 1 Gordon Bailey and Herbert Funston. The play will be repeated this after noon and evening.

shadow fell, and she cried. '%rhe baby" But will take care of the baby" cried Miss Frost. Swing, swing!"
 Somebody gave the swing toss. and Lizzie went flying into the air, as hap py as any bird on the wing. Miss Frost went to the baby, who by this time was getting some more teeth, and after soothing him, not having her sense of responsibility so well developed as Lizzie's, deserted her post and ran to take a look at Lizzie's changed and excited face. But Lizzie at play was more than human nature could stand, and the children began to gather around the baby with cries of Lizzie White, come take keer O this baby!" "Who's takin' keer O this baby?' Miss Frost flew.
 T am," she cried almost fiercely. Hes my baby; let him alone, and let Lizzie alone.''
 She kept by the baby so well after that that it went fast asleep. But that was a bad move, for Lizzie saw it. and swiftly got out of the swing when it swept near the ground, and came run ming to Miss Frost, saying: Shall I get mothers skeeter net?"
 Miss Frost gave up the baby to Liz zie's care with the feeling that nothing could break up the child's habit of motherhood, and went to "start" a straw basket for big boy at the other end of the yard. Some time later, pass ing this way again, she found the baby peacefully sleeping, with it's head pro- tected from the flies by Lizzie's woolen jacket in lieu of the "skeeter'' net. After that Miss Frost got in the way of stopping for chat. with Lizzie's mother and the conversation usually drifted to Lizzie, with the child herself standing by a grave, but not very attentive lis tener.
 She's awful hateful.'' Mrs. White would say: "sne won't take keer O the baby. Why the other day got her a pound O cakes, a dozen bananas, and ? cents worth O taffy, and then she warn't satisfied. Oh, sne's. awful hate fuI. Don't let that child sit on the pavement, Lizzie-Tll beat your brains out!"-H. A. ,Biogg in New York Even ing Post. A.

A LITTLE MOTHER.
The Story of an East Side Child's
 Devotion.

The Story of an East Side child's 1 Devotion.
 Lizzie was little mother" There was nothing remarkab ble in that, for the playground swarmed with little moth- CTS of several ages and all sizes. It could hardly be otherwise, when one considered the neigborhood, where Mrs. Arpt, who lived in the corner house, had 10 children: Mrs Holmes, just down Marsle Street, had 10: Mrs. Barker, nine, Mrs. Alderman, six, and Lizzie's mother, five. The big mothers were all more or less busy at one thing and an- other; if 1t wasn't washing 1t was scru- ping; if not scrubbing, mending, or if none of the three, there was always something going on in the street that required their attention, and If it wasn't going on, it was likely to go on at any particular minute, so required somewhat constant looking out for from the front door.
 And there was always baby. So in this neighborhood little mothers were a necessity, and they abounded. The peculiaMty about Lizzie was that she took the duties of her position serious ly. The whole duty of a little mother'' in Lizzie's eyes was minding the baby.
 What first brought her to the notice of Miss Frost, teacher" at the play ground was the fact that she came regularly every day, but neither worked nor played. She seemed to think the playground was a happy hunting ground for the baby to sprawl in, and to hold unlimited space for the exercise of the baby's lungs.
 What is he crying for?" Miss Frost asked one day, and Lizzie's grave reply was: He's gettin' teeth" Miss Frost never bothered about the baby's crying after that: but she knew from the healthy screams throughout the summer that to the last play day the teeth had not been gotten.
 Lizzie was and very small even for that age, and she seldom smiled. One day Miss Frost, coming to the play ground, found Lizzie on the street in- front of her mothers house with the baby seated in large wicker baby carriage. Miss Frost took the handle of the cart and begged to be allowed to roll the baby over to the ground.
 LiZzie's mother. after a careful warning that the front spring was broken, looked smilingly on as Miss Frost tumbled the shaking carriage and heavy baby over to the playground. Lizzie ran alongside. Once within the enclosure, Miss Frost elated with her success at the partial separa ton of Liz zie and the baby, grew crafty. and made a daring determination that Lizzie should play. It was broiling August day, Miss Frost was hastily wiping her damp face while Lizzie was waiting, serenely calm. with her tiny body covered with a heavy woolen jacket. when suddenly Miss Frost bounced down upon an unoffending child who did nothing but play. and was at that moment preparing for her fourteenth time in the swing. nurmured few honeyed words to her, put her out and Lizzie in, all in the twinkling of an eye. A great light broke over Lizzie's face. the big brown eyes shone, she could smile after all; but instantly a

CRIME INCREASES IN GERMANY.
statistics Recently Published Are
Somewhat Disoujetjnu.

S''S"''dt Oio1NiCkllS'
The newly published criminal stats.
slcs of the German empire are not
pleasant reading. All along the line
they show an increase in crime over
the previous year, which cannot alto
s2fher be accounted for by the natural
increase OF population. The total mum.
Der OF convictions reached $4,000, or
27,50o more than last year. In the
eategories of ordinary theft and rob.
berry with violence the increase is very
marked, probably owing to the want
raused by general trade depression. A
remarkable increase is also observable
in offenses against officials and against
public orders. Probably the largest in
crease of all Is found in crimes where
bodily injury Is inflicted This last
category has risen from SO 600 to 98,-
900. The number OF offenses against
morality steadily rises in accordance
with the experience of former years
This was notably the case nth rape
and crimes committed against chill
dren. These have risen from 4,7Gn to
5.152 and from 1874 to Ais respec-
lively. Juvenile offenders are on the
increase, proving that the demoraliza,
Iou OF youth continues.
