WASHINGTON. ID. c.. March 22.--It
is learned Tonight that the President
ilias ordered that secret service men
be- gss5iit 10 iIa ttartuoga to work up
the case against the lynchers of the
negro, Ed. Johnson. who was taken from
the jail and hanged MONDAY night, a few.
hours after the Supreme Court OF the
United States. had granted a stay OF
proceedings.
The fact that the Supreme Court had
Sintervened in the case, gave the Federal
Courts mt least the color Of right to pro-
stcct tho sheriff. In whose Keeping the
prisoner was. Tho members OF the court
were in secret conference some hours
yesterday at the residence OF the chief
Justice, but the result of tho delibera-
stions was not made public. The Presi-
dent sent out word to the correspondents
that the matter. had not been brought to
his attention officially. and heE had no
statement to make concerning the lynch
ing. 81 sis
The action OF the executive, and that
he has taken such. there can be little
doubt, is regarded as remarkable. and
unprecented whether justiiable or not.

100000 for ranch in California con.
tanning $3.50 acres on which to grow
eucalyptus trees to supply the road
with ties. 1t takes the tree which is
relatively rapid grower, about 20
years to arrive at a diameter large
enough for the purpose and each tree
will then furnish from six TO eight

Keeping Parents In subiection.

In the life of the very rich some
parents still seek to resemble those
ourfews incarnate in humble life who
keep the girls at home and the boys
out OF the barrooms. Middle life and
old age are too hidebound to get ac-
customed to the manners of the new
generation Of young men who are old
and worn before they graduate and of
young women who win or lose large
sums at gambling. Children have a
right to expect from their parents do
cile obedience. At first this may be
difficult, but. as Aristotle says, "Vir-
tue Is habit" and 1t can be acquired
