 Cut Down.
NEGROES MISUNDERSTOOD

Washington, March 9.-(Special)- While President Roosevelt has no fixed rule about the eight year tenure, it is plain to be seen by his recent appoint ments that he Is usually falling to reap point men who have served eight years. There is now hardly a man in the diplo- matic and consular service who has not served eight years and Is to receive an- other appointment.
 For federal positions here In the United States, the rule has not been followed so closely, but it Is evident that the two term proposition is cutting enough figure to alarm all office holders who were appointed under the first Mckinley administration. Of course, the old rule. 'the longest pole knocks the persim- mon' is going to havs the most weight hut generally speaking the fact that a man has held office eight years, regard less of his record, will initiate against him,

They Were Misunderstood.

Rev. J. C. Parrish. of Louisville, one of the negroes who visited President Roosevelt yesterday. says the object of the delegation seems to have been wholly misunderstood.
 We did not advocate the reduction of the southern electorial vote,' said he. I've are not in favor of such action by Congress. We have some state pride, and do not want the power of our states decreased What we did urge is the right of the negro to cast his vote under the state constitution as the stand. We would be content if the law on the stat ute books was followed. An agitation of reduction in southern representation would simply lead to bitter sectional feeling. which all of us are anxious to avoid In addition, should Congress re- duce the representation of the south 1t would be an indorsement Of the disfran- chising features of the new state con- stitutions."

 Their capture was effected after the capture of one of their number. The witnesses called to testify number 16o and the trial Is expected to last fort night The prison vans conveying the accused, who repeatedly uttered anarch- istic cries, are escorted by cavalry to and from the courts, the authorities fearing an attempt at lynching.

ONLY TWO GENERALS
 LEFT IN THE SENATE
Pettus and Morgan Are the Only Men of That Rank Who Served
 In the Confederacy.

Washington, March 9.-(Special.) 1.-The death of Senator Bate leaves in the Sen ate the two Alabama senators as the only members who rose to the rank of general in the confederate army. Sena- tor Bate was major general. while Sen ator Morgan and Senator Pettus were brigadiers.
 Other members who served under the confederacy were Senators Blackburn, McCreary, McLaurin, Money, Berry, Mc- Emery, Bacon, Daniels and Mallory. The late Senator Bate was always very proud of his confederate record and constantly referred to 1t.
 By many of his friends he was ad- dressed as General Bate, and seemed to appreciate the title more than that of senator.

IS 4 WOODEN LEG A DEADLY WEAPON2 What is Status of Kick With
 Wooden Leg? WAS POSER FOR THE JUDGE Dave Brown Kicked Miller Alexander, and It Turns Out to Be Gravs
 offense In the Eyes of
 the Law.
WAS POSER FOR THE JUDGE

Ensley. March 9.-(Speciai)--n a wooden-legged man kicked another with his wooden leg Is he guilty of an assault with weapon?
 A plea of guilty was the only thing that relieved Judge J. M Donaldson, notary public and ex-officio justice of the peace. from passing on this mooted question today
 This morning, Dave Brown. a negro wifh wooden leg, was arraigned before Judge Donaldson, accused by Nellie Alex ander colored damsel with having struck her with his wooden leg thereby infiicting injuries which were painful and which might have proved serious
 The most interesting part of the inci- dent was the tilt between the lawyers for the defendant and plaintiff as to whether or not the kick administered constituted plain assault or an assault with a weapon. Fred. c. Moore repre- sented the woman and strenuously con- tended that a wooden leg was a danger ous instrument that when used for fight ing purposes was plainly weapon.
 The Victim Testifles.
 "If the defendant had taken off his arti- fcial leg and struck the plaintiff he would have been guilty of an assault with a weapon" shouted MT. Moore
 When one Is unfortunate to possess a wooden leg ceases to use 1t as a leg-a portion of himself-and so forgets him self as to use 1t to bully, punish and mangle woman, the law should hold him guilty of an assault with a weapon. and he should be given the fullest ex- tent of the law
 Attorney w. J. Martin, for the defend ant, then made an eloquent plea for the accused. "I contend,'' he said. that the defendant was only using part of what fate has bequeathed to him as his own. He has lost the leg with which birth provided him. For many years he has been compelled to go through the world with this artificial limb. He has learned to love this as a part of his body. He was dependent upon his wooden leg to carry him to and from his work It was natural that when he was called upon to defend himself that he resorted to that portion of himself which. althought an adopted member, had served so well, He could not use his other leg, and conse- quently was compelled to use the wooden one"
 Puts Leg to Improper Us,.
 This heated question was ended by Judge Donaldson putting the woman on the stand, and her testimony being so unfavorable to Brown brought forth a plea of guilty. He was promptly fined s25 and costs by Judge Donaldson.
 It was with a sigh of relief that the Judge entered the case on the docket The argument of the lawyers had caused the legal brow of the justice to become somewhat beclouded. The problem about to be put up to him was one that would tax Solomon. and when the plea of guilty was entered the jucge showed plainly that heavy burden had been lifted from his mind.

PessImIsm Grows Deeper.

This is carnival week according to the Russian calendar, but the stern hand of fate has moved the dial forward and plunged the city into Lenten gloom and despondency. The pessimism yesterday was even deeper than on Wednesday. Many military officials are openly spec ulating as to how long the fragment of the once great army of Manchuria will be able to hold the line of the Hun river, and if Field Marshal Oyama has actu- ally succeeded in perfecting his trip, how long 1t will be before thousands of Rus sians will be effecting in Japan a june ton with their prisoner comrades, whose failure is written by the trcnch-interred corpses at Vafangow and Haicheng.
