Singular Coincidence.

Last Friday there came to
darlington "Friend" David Ia
tum, of Chicago, en- route through
the South on missionary tour
to preach temperance and how
to save the boys. He did not
know there were any Friends, or
Quakers, as the sect is more gen
orally known, here, but learned
that MIR. Jno. b. Atkinson was a
Friend and went to him. Mr..
Atkinson entertained him while
here. The singular coincidence
was that in conversation these
two gentlemen learned that they
had both lived at the same town
in New Jersey, Mullica Hill.
Mr.. Tatum's father had many
years ago sold a farm which adj
Joined the old Atkinson home
stead near Mullica Hill. Mr..
Tatum is eighty. two years old
and has been Quaker preacher
for many years. His wife, who
died few years ago, was also a
preacher and they travelled to-
gether for many winter seasons
preaching through the south.
He is an active, we'll preserved
and healthy man for his age, and
an enthusiastic and convincing
speaker. He spoke twice here
Sunday, and proceeded south
ward Monday, stopping to speak
at Mortons Gap that evening.

Dixon, KY, Dec. 1.-THE
trial of Mrs. Emma Roach aud
her brothers, Rob and Rich
Crenshaw, charged with the
urder of Gohlson league,
former husband of Mrs. Roach,
last June, was begun in the Cir

original panel were accepted.

liclty given to the monthly honor
roll did great good in stimulating
pupils to do their best work.
While THE BEE did not feel
justified in continuing to give
away three hundred dollars worth
of space annually for this de.
partment, besides the labor of
editing and much correspond
ence, and the added cost of
prizes, it is a pleasure to see
that it started movement for
educational publicity which still
holds. There is yet more or less
publicity given to honor roll lists
in some of the schools, in the
several papers Of the county,
which, as far as it goes, contin-
ues to act as a stimulus to the
pupils of some of our public
schools. And there is no ques-
ton that deserves to come closer
to the hearts of all the people
than this one of the better edu-
cation of our children and a
higher standard of work on the
part of both teacher and pupil.
1t is probable that legislation Will
be proposed in the next General
Assembly looking to the estab-
lsshment of State normal school
for the training of teachers
and to require that only prop
erly n d carefully trained
teachers may get positions in
school rooms in Kentucky. Ken
lucky, with the largest proper
ton of illiteral whites, has dis
graceful record in educational
matters. 1t ought not to be hard
to make our legislators see the
States plight and need along
this line, unless a majority of
our law makers shall prefer that
the masses in Kentucky remain
in ignorance.

organization.

Chairman Ewing a tobacco ware

MORAL RESTRAINT IN
TOBACCO ORGANIZATION

The ignorant and the lawless
too often hold the balance of
power in popular organizations,
as they do in political move
ments and organizations. Such
has proven the case in some parts
of the district covered by the
Dark Tobacco District Protective
Association, and threats and vio-
lence have been exercised against
independent farmers and dealers
who chose not to enter that or
ganization In effecting this or
ganlzation, which has for its
purpose the legitimate associa-
ton and protection of its mem
bers In their business of growing
and selling tobacco, there has
been, in some sections of the dark
tobacco district, more or less in
diligence In speeches and resolu-
tions of an inflammatory nature.
The BEE believes that in Hopkins
county this movement has been
conducted along sober, business
lines, but it has not been so
throughout the whole district,
and the papers have lately re-
corded numerous instances of
threats and force, of night riding
and intimidation, employed to
compel unwilling farmers into
the organization and to hinder
the business of Reggie and indie
pendent buyers. The tobacco
warehouse of a Reggie buyer at
Trenton was burned Friday night
by lncendiaries and an attempt
made to burn another. 1t was
not alleged openly that the burn
ing was done by members of the
farmers organization. But the
sequence Of events was unfortun
ate, and, on Monday, the execu-
tive committee of the farmers
association for Christian county
held a meeting to give unquali-
fed expression to their opinion
"that the business of the associa.
ton should be conducted strictly
in consonance with law and or
DER" Further: "The extreme
resolutions adopted in several
other counties and the boycott
measures practiced were ear
nestly deprecated"
i Christian county has set good
example, and it is to be hoped
that the Hopkins county organi-
cation at its coming meeting will
adopt similar resolutions of fair
ness.

GREAT PRINTERS STRIKE.
Every Union Man in Chicago to GOaout
 This week. >.}

Chicago, Aug. 27.-Before the middle of this week every union printer in the thirty-seven shops controlled by the Chicago Typothetae will be on strike, 1t was announced to-day. Before another week has passed the strike may be ex- tended to twelve of the cities of the middle west. the employers of which are organized with the Chicago Ty- pothetae into a middle west association.
 That the printers will put up a long and bitter fight against the Typothetae was foreshadowed to-day when Typo graphical union No. 10 met and endors- ed the strike assessment from two to ten per cent The union also decided to force the fighting by presenting at once the demands for an eight hour agreement and an agreement for closed shops.
 The raising of the strike assessment means the addition of $S,0GO weekly to the defense fund, and the printers say they can keep 300 men on the street without touching the I,0O,O0O which the union says 1t is ready to spend If necessary.

AGAINST DIVIDING sAKHALIN.
Sentiment i'm Japan Very Strong
 Opinions of Press.

Tokio, Aug. 27.-The proposal that Sakhalin be divided between Russia and Japan is exciting strong popular op- position here, and it is freely predict ed that acceptance of it will result in demonstrations against the govern ment. The Nichi Nichi declares:
 Peace under such circumstances would be imperfect. Peace must be concluded. Since the island was re- covered at the point of the sword there is no room to entertain the proposal for a partial surrender of it. Should our government try to conclude peace in the presence of so many obstacles to effecting a lasting peace the result would only be temporary cessation of hostilities. for which we would hold our authorities responsible and unhes- itatingly blame them. Japan shall ad- here to her demands with reference to the payment of indemnity and the ces- sion of territory
 The Hoehi Shimbun expresses sur prise that the proposal to divide Sak- halin was made, and says the proposal verges on the absurd. '> -. % The Mainichi says: If the reported proposal to divide Sakhalin is true, ii is a most grave and serious danger te our country. It will be impossible to entertain it, as it would only serve to SOW the seeds of further dangers and complications. Let us stop the peace negotiations if the proposal is serious ly made"

Then he complained of being dizzy and with in few minutes lapsed into state of inconsistencies, from which he has not awakened. .-.

MURDERER ESCAPES.
With n Burglar He Breaks Out of
 Albany penltentiary.

Albany, N. T.. Aug, 2L-Two prison CTS awaiting trial on charges, one of murder, the other of burglary, escap- ed to-day from the Albany penitentiary and are still at large. Cosimo Biele, accused of having shot. and killed Thomas Redmond in this city last Feb ruary, and Thomas Mart, charged with burglarizing a local pool room on the night of July 4, dug their way through the ceiling of their cell and escaped over the roof. Their escape was not discovered for some time. The peniten- tiary officials can give no explanation of the escape or the long time before il was discovered. {$.
 Part of the penitentiary is used as the county pail, and It was from this part of the institution that the pris- oners escaped. ...:
 Mart Is believed to be an expert bur glar and safe cracker, and to have planned the escape. The burglary oi which he Is accused was committed by climbing a telegraph pole and enter ing the pool room thtaugh the roof.
 A general alarm of the escape has been sent to the police throughout this state and New England.
