TRUE IN THEIR DEFENSE

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. Feb. I6.-John
Mitchell, president OF the United Mine
Workers OF America, said today:
In all my experience l have never
known an instance in which there oc-
CURED such a change of sentiment on
the part Of the wage-earning classes as
that which took place in the case OF
Senator Hanna. Eight years ago Hanna
was regarded by the great mass Of
wage-earners as their enemy and op-
ponent. For the past several years he
has been looked upon as their friend
and exponent.
II presume there is no representative
Of organized labor who enjoyed a more
intimate acquaintance with Senator
Hanna than myself. and no one can ap-
preciate the many invaluable services
he rendered organized labor without
having an intimate acquaintance with
him.
Desired No Credit.
Senator Hanna did not seek credit
for his work. and / know of many
sacrifices Of time and energy made by
him for which ne received no public rec
ignition. Indeed. he often told me that
his highest ambition was to do all that
lay in his power fairly and honestly TO
reconcile the interests or employers and
employees, and that he did not desire
either public notice or applause OF his
action. And from my own personal in
formation know this to be true.
Fearless in Expression.
Senator Hanna's association with the
National Civic Federation was an evil
dence of his sincere interest in the pro-
motion OF Industrial peace. His connec-
-
right OF laboring men TO organize and
10 act through their organization did
much to remove prejudice on the part
OF employers against labor organiza-
tons.
'One of the things which will leave
a lasting impression upon me was Sena-
tor Hanna's feariessness OF expression.
When he believed them to be wrong,
have heard him condemn great employ
ers in the most severe lans uage, and I'M
der the same circumstances I have heard
him criticise, nsno uncertain tones. the
representatives Of organized labor"

The words seemed prophecy, as at

MURDER OVER
 RACE EQUALITY
Negro Who Used B. T. Washing ton as Illustration Kills
 White Man.

Dallas, Texas, Get. 4. A race equality controversy, in which the name of Booker T. Washing ton was mentioned, caused a ne- gro to kill a white man today and the tragedy nearly cost the negro his life at the hands of mob. The man who was slain was A.. Riddle, a barkeeper, and his slayer was F. F. Manning, a por- ter, The barkeeper forbade him from entertaining a woman friend in the saloon. The negro demanded an apology, which the white man refused to make. The negro then declared that Booker T. Washington was as good as any white man and that his friend was as good as any white woman. Manning says Riddle drew pistol and compelled him to apologize.
 T made up my mind right there," :" the negro stated, to kill Riddle for revenge at the first opportunity. This morning l saw him with his back turned. He was writing at a cigar stand. l quietly slipped up, placed the muzzle of pistol close to his head and fired a bullet into it.. /"

MAIDS EvAsIvE ANSWER.
Her Employer Was Busy and Could Not Receive Callers--What
 She Told Them,

Strange as tmay seem, says the Philadelphia Telegraph, there is a public man in this city who is blessed or cursed with a tender conscience that worries him in small matters as we'll as in great. Among the things thathe cannot justify to himself is the bidding servant to say that he is not at home when in reality he is inside his house. At the same time he is not able to receive many visitors who call upon him, and his only resource was to give instructions that polite excuses should be given. Upon one occa. sion such instructions were given to maid, an Irish girl gifted with the readiness and good wit of her nation.
 "Then Pm to be saying, sir, that you're not at homer the maid in. quired.
 "No, Mary, nop was the reply; "that would not be true. Ifany. one should ask for me, you must just put him off-give him some evasive answer, you know"
 "Pll do it, sir, never fear" was the maids reply. Mary was as good as her word.
 That afternoon person of inn portance made his appearance, and was duly sent away. Tho faithful maid reported the cir. cumstance to her employer.
 "What did you do, Mary?r in. quired the latter, with some trep- idation.
 "Oh, just put him off, sir as you told me. gave him an evasive answer"
 "Yes, but what did you say to hin" |"
 "Oh, sure he axed me if the boss was at home, and I said to him: Was his grandmother a mon- key?"

JAPAN's RAPID PROGRESS.
Has Converted Herself Into q Power. full Nation in the Last Quarter
 of Century.

When visited Yeddo and the ports of Japan in the winter of lS6O-61 the country was ruled upon the most exclusive Japanese methods, wrote Lord Wolseley in the Cosmopolitan in 1895. The people were held in subjection by a hereditary nobility who ruled them with rod of iron. They were then far behind China in all matters connected with sea pow CT, for in order to prevent any communication with foreign places all Japanese junks were, in accordance with the law, con- structed with low, open sterns, so that they dared not venture be- yond a few miles from shore.
 No one can be blind to the enor. nous strides in progress Japan has made, the immense reforms she has effected and the powerful nation she has converted herself into during the last quarter of a century. The result is the crea- tion of a power in the eastern seas that must in future be always taken into consideration by west. ern statesmen.

ACCOMPLICES MAY
 ALSO BE INDICTED.
Forecast of What Next White County Grand Jury May Do
 Roberts-Lightle Cases.

It is understood that Dr. R. G. Lightle, J. V. Roberts and Wal ter Gregory will not be the only ones of Searcy to be indicted by the grand jury for complicity to rob the grave of Ed Pitts and al- so of attempting to defraud the insurance companies, says the Little Rock Democrat.
 From a gentleman who resides in Searcy and who has been and is yet in close touch with the sit uation, 1t is learned that the grand jury will probably indict several others whose connection with the famous case has been talked of for some time. Greg ory will of course be indicted for his connection with the offense, but it is not thought that he will be prosecuted on either of the charges on account of .,his turn ing states evidence.
 Since the trial of Dr. Lightle for grave robbery it has develop ed that the charge of attempt ing to defraud the insurance companies will be the only one against him hereafter. Under the statute of Arkansas, which has been upheld by the supreme court, man cannot be charged with arson for burning his own property, provided the destruc- tion of his property does not en- danger the property of others.

Turkish Beds.

A recent writer on Turkey says: "Bedsteads are not used by the Turks. Each room contains a large cupboard, built into the wall, in which the bedding is piled during the day, and at night the slaves come in when summoned to make up the beds on the floor. Other bedroom requisites, in the shape of washstands, dressing tables and wardrobes, are dis. pensed with as superfuous. For everyday, ablution there is a small washing room with a hole in the floor for the water to escape through, and if the hanun would wash her hands and face only, a slave brings the ewer and basin and pours the water over her hands. For special ablutions she will go either to her own private hammam or to the public baths. She does her hair,' or has it done for her, seated cross-legged in her corner of the diyan; and the old walnut-wood chests and coffers in her treasure-room suffice to store her gauges and brocades, her silks and embroideries."
