ing to burn the negro district in this
city, and a fierce race riot is threat
ened. Seven companies of the Ohio ma
tional guard are on the scene, but are
unable to cope with the situation.
The trouble is the outcome of the
lynching of Richard Dickerson, a ne
gro, by q mob of whites. Dickerson
killed a policeman, and the negroes in
the city threaten revenge for his lynch
ing.
The mob has already set -four build
ings on fire in the levee district, in
habited by the negroes. The flames are
spreading toward the center of the city,
and the crowd is rapidly increasing.
Scores of windows have been broken
with stones, and the negroes are fleeing
for their lives. The mob is shooting at
random, and it is reported that several
persons have been wounded.
1t is planned to place troops on the
levee, in the center of the city and at
the homes of several of the officials
whose lives have been threatened, one
of whom is Judge J. Miller.

The two diseases that this remedy will
cure undoubtedly cause moro sickness

this, the same as most physicians ard
druggists; but he went a step further
he discovered a cure. He found q happy
combustion OF harmless ingredients that
will curo all diseases of the stomach and

II do not recommend it for corns or

from constipation or Indigestion to let me

Governor Cummins says that the
Iowa law will have to be amended in
this respect, and he will send a spe-
cial message to the legislature rec
ommending such change. In his de-
lision, which covers one of the first
Eases of the kind ever raised in Iowa,
the governor says:
''The ruling l am compelled to make
upon this application exhibits a grave
defect in the law.
Under the federal statute, as con
strued by every recent decision of the
supreme court of the United States
and by an older case in our W SUI
preme court, l have no authority what
ever to extradite Mrs. Dye.
81 have submitted the matter to the
attorney general. and this ruling is
made under his advice"
