present during the fair and was
untiring in his efforts to give the
farmers the full benefit of his long
experience as a successful farmer
in the hill lands of North Louis

Some visitors criticised the fail

that the criticism is unjust. tc

JUDGES OF me COURT or APPEALS.

The recent amendments to the
constitution provide for the d.
vision of the State. outside Of the
city of New Orleans and the
Court already organized there.
into Two circuits and these cir
cults arc. divided irto three dis
tricts. A Judge for each of these
separate districts will be elected
by the voters of each special dis
trct, while the three judges thus
elected will set in all the cases
coming up in that circuit.
The system is all wrong. The
voters all over the district should
be allowed to vote on the judges
who are to compose their cour,

President Roosevelt is getting
the full benefit Of negro vituper-
alton from all over the United
States. The animus is caused by
his persmptory order discearging
three companies of the 25th Col
ored Infantry for their participa-
ton in the late riot at Browns
vile, Texas. One Republican
political organization in New
York was dragooned into passing
resolutions of condemnation by
some of the colored voters who
participated in the meeting and
colored lawyers and ministers
from various parts of the country
have Wed with each other in de-
nounciug the Presidents action
disciplining the members of the
unruly 25th.
The mere fact that President
Roosevelt has proved himself one
of the best friends to the colored
race who has ever been in the
White House. has cut no figure
with his detractors. The fact
that in a moment of absent
mindness he dined Booker T.
Washington, man to man, forget
ting his color in his admiration Of
Washington's good work, has gone
entirely for naught. He has been
shown just exactly the amount oil
gratitude which is to be expected
from the nations wards. In view
of the Presidents past record it i.
not likely that these denuncia-
tons will have any effect on
him. He may regret the So
called colored leaders have con-
sidcred it wise to deliver them,
but as far as their having any ef-
feet in changing his order for tn.
dismissal of the colored troops
that is exceedingly unlikely.
The showing that the 25th has
made in the past ten years has
been such as to fully warrant the
drastic action of The President ii
dismissing three of its companies

that the men making up the regi-

STATE FAIR AT SHREVEPORT.

Too much praise can not be
given the management OF the
State Fair at Shreveport. The
exhibits in many instances were
as fine as can be seen in any
country. There has been consid-
cradle unfavorable criticism OF
the attractions outside of the ex-
hibitions. These attractions. or
the main ones-the racing and the
exhibition of the .'air ship
we're very good. The minor at
fractions on the pike" may or
may not have been good. That
depends entirely upon what the
visitor was looking for. but it goes
without saying that they were as
good as are the usual shows of
that kind.
Some people visited the fair to
see the air ship. others to see the
races. others the shows on the
Pike and others to see the ex-
hibits of poultry, swine. horses.
cattle. agricultural products. agri-
cultural machinery for the culti-
walton of the crops and preparing
them for market, and tha i'm
proved modes of farming.
II takes a variety of subjects to
induce the public to visit a fair,
but when one visited the State

Train Wreckers Sent to Jail.

In default of $1,000 bail Martin Gold
en- and John McAvoy, the two young
men who are charged with the serious
crime of attempting TO wreck the
Pennsylvania Flyer, near Nescopeck,
last Friday were remanded TO the Luz
erne county prison. The hearing took
place Tuesday before Alderman Pol
lock at Wilkes Barre and the evidence
against the young men was very con-
vincing
The most important witness was lit
tie Herbert Parker, who, together with
his 1l-year old brother, was response
bic in averting a horrible accident
which would have undoubtedly result
ed in large death list. The little fell
low is but II years of age and resides
near Nescopeck, where the attempt was
made TO wreck the train. He swOre
that he saw the defendants tamper with
the switch and throw it open so that
the train which was due in about ten
minutes would crash into the blind
siding. The evidence was of a damag.
ing character the boy identifying the
defendants as the guilty parties.
Peter Golden, a trackwalker, en-
ployed by the Pennsylvania railroad,
and who was notified by the little
Parker boys that the switch.had been
thrown was called His testimony was
to the effect that he was walking down
the track toward Nescopeck and saw
the two men accused of the crime pro-
ceeding up the railroad towards Wilkes
Barre When he neared the switch he
was notified by the Parker boys that
two men had tampered with it and he
at once suspected that the men he saw
a few minutes before had something
to do with the dastardly work. 1t is

Allowed Fight Closes Saloon.

During the trial of petty assault
and battery case from Mt. Carmel be-
fore Judge Savidge in court at Sun
bury yesterday morning it develop
ed that the fight occurred in the saloon
of Mrs. Annie CitaCunis. This aroused
the ire of the Court and he not only
gave the woman a severe reprimand
but directed that she close the saloon
for ten days. In rebuking her the
Judge said: had she turned stream of
cold water on the brutes instead of
filling them with beer and then stand
idly by and see them pummel each 9TH
er he would have commended her ac-
tion and seen that she did not suffer,
but as it was, she was as bad as they
were and if such thing ever occurred
in her place again he would not COM
pei her to close for ten days but would
take away her license. Anthony Bar
cosky, the assault and battery defend
ant, was found guilty by the jury.
Yesterday noon the grand jury COM
pleted its labors and was discharg
ed by the Court. They acted on thirty
three bills and ignored eight, return
ing the remainder as true bills. 1t
also recommended repairs at the coun-
tv jail and the building of an addition

A VICTIM
OF MENINGITIS

John W. Roat, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Andrew c. ROat, Grand street, whose
critical illness of meningitis was not.
ed in these columns a couple of weeks
ago, departed this life Sunday No
sadder death has occurred in Danville
in long while.
The deceased was fourteen years of
age, boy of remarkable promise. He
was devoted to his home and to his par
ents to a degree beyond what is COM
mon in this day when there are so
many social attractions outside the
parental home. He was an only child
and as was natural he was beloved and
idolized by his parents as only low
able and dutiful child can be. He was
remarkably studious and made rapid
progress at school. He was a great
reader and excepting his parents books
were his only companions. 1t was this
condition of mental activity, natural
with the boy, which the physician
thinks had a great deal to do with bring
ing about the distressing and fatal dis
ease of which he died.
The deceased took his bed three
weeks ago today, but he had been all
ing for some days previously. 1t was
a fearful seige of suffering practically
hopeless from the start. He breathed
his last at s 80 O'Clock Sunday morn
ing but had been dying since Friday
evening
