AFTER SEA TRIP
Officials Prevent Lynching by Spirit
ing Away Prisoner in Ship,
Then Execute Him.

Baltimore, Md, july pa negro
died on the gallows after a trip at sea
with the sheriff Of Somerset county,
who sailed from port with the negro
and a gallows. At daylight the sheriff
anchored at a lonely spot ON Smith
island, erected the sallows on the
shore, and hanged the negro.
The negro was William Lee, con-
victed and sentenced to death for an
attack on two women in Princess Anne
county. To prevent him from being
lynched, he had been kept in the Balti-
more jail until the day of his execu-
ton.
The governor fixed the time for the
Negroes execution, but the people of
Princess Anne county believed hanging
was too mild and threatened to tear
him to pieces when brought back for
execution.
10 Outwit the mob the sheriff
spirited the negro out of Jail, put him
on board the state fishery steamer,
and made the unique preparations for
a daylight execution. Only his as
sistants and the legal number of wit
neSSeS were present

One Band Attacks q Guarded Train
Fatal Fight Follows.

Warsaw, July 80. = Two daring
train robberies were committed in Rus
sian Poland. one of them resulting in a
considerable loss of life. A train from

protection of seven frontier guardSmen.
General Zukat. chief of the frontier
guard; General Weitenring. chief of
the customs service of Warsaw: Col
Onel BrzeZicki. and Captain Laguma
were passengers.
Fifteen persons boarded the train at
a way station. They evidently had
been waiting for it. and made an at
tack on the guardsmen, who were re-
fnforced by the officers named. A reg
ular fight followed in which the two
generals, two officials, five soldiers and
one rObber were killed and Colonel
Brzezickiand one rObber wounded. The
robbers escaped, taking $4,000 and the
arms Of those who had attempted to
defend The train against robbery
The second robbery was committed
on the WarSaWNienna railway. six
miles from Warsaw. While the train
was under way unEn0wnpers0ns pulled
the danger signal, causing it to stop.
Robbers who We're aboard jumped out
and seized the locomotive and de-
tached the mail car from the train and
ran it down the line. They secured $37,-
500 of government money. The train
was without Il guard and hence there
was no fighting and no casualties.
The robber who lies wounded at
CZenStOchOWa is in a serious condi-
ton. He refuses to give any informa-
ton whatsoever concerning his ac-
COMPLIES.

Men in This Country.

New York, July 30 = Maxim .Gorky
has made public an appeal directed to
the people Of the United States to
help the people OF Russia to free it's
body from the parasites which suck it's
lfe's blood" He takes for his text
'the car has dispersed the duma."
Some characteristic phrases are these:
1.-THE Russian government will now
inaugurate a policy of brutal and bes-
tial reprsalS. The hangmen and
thieves surrounding the throne and
supporting itSyith bloodstained hands
have of late heard many bitter and in
Sulting truths from the lips of courage
Gus and honest men. They will avenge
themselves for it and their vengeance
will be severe.
''The black, blOod-sOaked wings Of
death will fiutter over the country for
months. The exhausted earth will
swallow thousands of cOrpses of men
whose only crime was the desire to live
a human life. Are we civil
lied people or are we not? 81
If such crying horrors occur as those
which we now witness in Russia true
men and women cannot remain quiet
at their sight" He closes with an ap-
peal for help for Russia and asks: Are
there i'll this country living men, and
will they hear me?"

American Tourists and Their Ways.

English people, as a rule, try to en-
ter hotel drawing room or any other
public place as quietly as possible and
endeavor not to interfere with the
other occupants Of the room more than
they can help. A party of French or
Germans will never dream of stopping
to consider whether their piercing
voices are deafening their neighbors
while Americans have a particularly
maddening habit of reading their COR
respondence aloud in public without
the slightest regard to other people
who are reading or conversing in the
same room. 1t is no doubt part Of the
same lack of breeding which leads
them to hold conversations at the top
of their very penetrating voices not
only in public picture galleries, but
also in continental churches, without
paying any attention to the fact that
a solemn service may be going on
within a few yards of them.-London

WORKMEN's DEPUTIES MEET
General Strike to Come, Not Now, but

st. Petersburg, July 3O.-A plenary
meeting Of the st. Petersburg council
of wOrkmen's deputies, representing
10000 wOrkmen, was held at Terioki,
a little town across the Finnish border
which is now the Mecca of all op-
ponents of the government. The men,
bers agreed that a general strike,
though it must be declared later, at
the present moment would be untime-

cussing other measures, and an eX-
preston of views as to the attitude to
be taken by the workmen on the dis
solution of parliament. Many of the
delegates favored gigantic One-day

reached.

A Curious Coincidence.

The story Of queer coincidence Is
told by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. While
travelling upon the continent he visited
a certain mountain inn, which was in
winter he learned, occupied only by
two men. These men, prisOned in a
waste of snow and ice, had for all that
period no communication with the
world below. Here was a situation for
novelist! And the novelist accord
ingly began to let his imagination play
about the possibilities of tragedy sur
rounding the two men on their noun
tain height. But the story was never
written, for, happening to come upon
a volume of Guy de Maupassant, which
was new to him, he found therein, I'M
der the title of "L'Auberge," the very
story he had meant to write.

to manage the Paradise plantation. of
Mexico, the rock over which it is al
legged the Dowie and Voliva partsans
split, had the following to say of the
decision: eff the decree of Judge Ian
dis stands the Christian Catholic Apos-
tolic church of Zion is uprooted. The
church is founded on the theory of q
theocracy, and how then can an cleo
ton under the laws of Cook county, Hi
nois, proclaim who shall be leader of
the hosts?
Il maintain that God Almighty alone
can designate who shall be the First
Apostle. | firmly believe that the Lord
has designated John Alexander Dowie
to lead the hosts TO the paths of light
Therefore when special election is
called the whole fabric Of the church
is destroyed. If God designates the
leader how can man choose him? AS
far as property rights are concerned
they matter little to us; the great ques-
ton is that of spiritual control; upon
that the very foundation Of the church
depends. l am sure DR.. Dowie will
never be. satisfied with the decision as
rendered"
Dowie himself said that inasmuch a.
he had not had an opportunity to read
the whole decision he would not at this
time express an opinion, or say what
he should do. 1T was too serious a mat
ter for the church to reach a conclu-
sion without deliberation, and he would
not be hasty. He refused to answer a
question as to whether he would take
an appeal, saying that he desired first
to consult his counsel. "We want
peace" he said. but not with diShonor
