Man Who Made His Escape From
Bakers Camp Not TrustY.
In it's issue OF Saturday last The Sun
contained mention Of the fact that
Thomas GAney, negro convicted for
murder In this county and sentenced
to prison for life, had escaped from the
camp OF p. II. Baker, naval stores OPP
orator at Campville,
1t is true that Ganey did escape, and
notwithstanding the efforts OF the au-
thorities to apprehend him, the man 10
still at large. He was not "trusty,"
however, As he had the reputation OF
being one OF the stubbornest convicts
In the camp.
Definite particulars Of the escape OF
this prisoner have been furnished by
Mr.. Baker himself. Mr.. Baker states
that the convict, with a number OF
other prisoners, was working in the
woods under guard. In moving across
3 small but thick growth Ganey made
the t4sh for liberty. Hi. position was
such that the guard could not fire at
that time, which would endAnger other
lives, but az soon As a position could be
secured he discharged his rifle three
times OF the fleeing negro, without eff
feet
Captain OF Guards Wilson was noti-
fed ~ soon As possible and put the
dogs on the trail, bot Ganey, who is
nest-fOoted, had gained considerable
Roadway. The dogs tracked the man
to North Gainesville, however, where
they lost the trail Ii was then that

The organized carpenters and join
erS OF the city, at a recent meeting Of

they were giving too much sugar for

ton was passed TO the effect that after

10 speaking Of the matter Thursday
one OF the most competent carpenters
In the city, and a prominent member
OF the union, stated that the carpen-
tiers OF Gainesville not only received a
miserably low compensation for their
labor, but we're compelled to put in a
full day Of ten hours. The highest
wages paid a carpenter in this city is

from $l.76 TO 81 day, and is COM

have talked this thing over very care
fully and weighed the matter with jus.

The contractors have not yet been
heard from in the matter. Whether
they propose 70 concede to the de-

or whether they will oppose the red uc-

BE- awaited. However, the latter are

ITO BE Continued
Medieval Monarchs.

Almost every medieval monarch
claimed the whole or part of the
dominions of almost every other and
insisted on inserting his claim in his
list of official titles. In treatises and
all official documents the whole list
was religiously copied, and as it often
happened that the two negotiating
monarchs had some of the same titles
it became usual to insert a clause in
the list, non praejudicando, in order to
indicate that, no matter how absurd,
inappropriate or untrue were the titles,
they were understood to be inserted be-
cause they pleased the monarch who
claimed them, that they did not confer
valid claim, and so no harm was
likely to result from their use.

An Ingenious Scheme.

A story is told of a Chicago girl

published. She would send line Of
verse from one of her poems to the
query column Of some newspaper and
ask from what poem such line came,
the name Of the poem and Of the au-
thor. A friend. also a rhymester,
would send the querist's own poem to
the paper with the desired informa
ton, and of course it would appear in
print. The querist would do the same
for the friend and so on until between

Arbitration Movement

IN favor Of a peaceful means OF sst-
Ting international disputes. No people
are more united in a hatred OF war
than Americans though they often
show an admiration OF military ex-
plolts. Public sentiment In America be-
gan Ia crystalize IN 1882, when the
Massachusetts senate adopted, by a
vote Of 10 TO s, resolution to establish
some means for the nlnicable and Anal
adjustment OF all international disputes
without resorting to war. Again a
little prior to 1870 there was consider
able popular agitation regarding tho
convocation OF congress Of nations to
establish an international tribunal.
This plan was commended by tho
Massachusetts legislature IN 1884 and
by the Vermont legislature In 1852.
In 1851 the agitation reached tho
United States senate
The chairman OF the committee on
foreign affairs, MIR. Foote reported a
resolution TO arrange arbitration trea-
ties by which all disputes should be
arbitrated before neutral umplres, On
May 81, 1872, Mr. Sumner introduced
IL bin to establish q tribunal as a sub
stitute for war. Two years later n
resolution fayorlng general arbitration
was passed by the house OF representa-
tives.
A communication was received in 1888
by the president and Congress from 235
members Of the British parliament urg-
ing the conclusion OF treaty OF arbi-
tratlon. An exchange OF resolutions
by Congress and parliament led to the
signing OF treaty on Jan, IL, 1897, but
the senate refused TO confirm IT, In
his inaugural address March 4, 1897,
the late President Mckinley spoke OF
arbitration as the true method OF set
tlement Of International differences and
urged the senate to ratlfy the treaty
negotiated with England, but II refused
to follow his advice.
It Is hardly nkely that the arbltra-
ton treaties now balng negotiated by
Secy. Hay will fail OF ratification In
the senate as the former treaty did. on
the contrary, there Is good reason to be-
lieve that some OF the senators who
opposed the former treaty would now
vote for similar one, IL the present
tendency toward peace continues-and
there Is no good reason why Il should
nct--it is probable that In several
years wars will finally be done away
with The present struggle between
Japan and Russia might possibly be
the last military spectacle the world
Is 10 witness. Moreover, II seems that
nations are beginning TO develop a
conscience and sense OF justice for
the rights Of other nations, neither OF

humanitarian point OF view, the most
interesting event Of current diplomatic
history is the slow but steady extern
zion Of the principle OF arbitration. The

the tendency Of the age TO submit all
differences to an umpire for settlement
Public opinion over the whole world IS

It is naturally turning to favor any
means Of avoiding armed struggles,
War at present and war In the NJ

IN methods and IN cost The rapid
firing, loug-range guns, shells, mines
and similar Instruments Of modern, war
fare have made war much more horrible
than it was centuries ago. But the
increased cost IS not the only cause OF
the unpopularlty OF war. There also
seems TO be more enlightened sense
OF duty and justice among the peoples
OF the world, which tends TO create "A
