the shooting evidently thought that the

The negro was taken to Dixon by an
other officer, while men gathered to
lynch Mcdowell. Negroes of Provi-

over which the mob was expected to
pass The travelling men soon came
along, and the ambushed negroes fired
on them. Mcdowell was hurried from
Dixon to Henderson. The mob ar

WASHINGTON, March 15.--The date

order to give him opportunity to pre-

that he Will be heard this week. Sem
ator La Toilette will be heard on

prepared an exhaustive argument in
favor of his amendment for tho ply
sical valuation of railroads whose
bonds are to be accepted as 81 urity

tainable 1t is not likely that the
Aldrich bill will reach the final stages

IRREGULAR MARRIAGES
English Church in Jnpnn Performs Mar
ringc Services Which Are Illegal.


TOXIC, March 15.--The question OF
Anglican religious marriages in Japan
is Just now exciting considerable at
tcntion among foreign residents in gen
eral and English residents In partlcu-
lar. The admission of the Rt. Rev.
Bishop Awdry, head of the Anglican
Church In Japan, leaves little room for
doubt that some thirty or forty mar
riages contracted In conformity with
the rites of the English Church, In the
eyes of the English law. are Invalid
and that the offspring of such union
is illegitmate. This tardy realiza-
ton on the part OF the Englican clergy
In Japan OF grave error for which
they must be held morally responsible
is the outcome Of divorce proceedings
which have been instituted in England
by parties who were married by Bishop
Awdry himself In Toxic. In the course
OF the proceedings the Judge declared
that he was unable to grant O. divorce
on tile ground that he was not salts
fled that In the eyes OF English law
legal marriage had been contracted.
II this ruling should be sustained 1t
must apply with equal force to all other
British marriages in Japan contracted
under the same conditions.
The clergy, in the person OF their
head, having frankly avowed their mis-
take, the futility of further recrmi-
nation is generally recognized and the
only point now worthy OF consideration
is remedy. Tho only feasible one
would seem to be another act OF Par
Lament to legalize these irregular mar
riage.

CHEER AMERICA
Australians Enthusiastic Over hp-
pronchinr: visit o. Evans Fleet.

prOnchinE Visit o. 1vansn Fleet
SYDNEY, March 15.--Thero waa a
dramatic scene at great gathering
OF citizens. when at the conclusion
of an address on tho snbject OF ma.
tiopal defense the Premier, Alfred Dea.
kin, read cablegram announcing that
the American fleet of battlcships would
visit Sydney and Melbourne. He called
fvr three cheers for the United States
and the audience responded with great
enthusiasm.
The Prime Minister said that he was
sUre that such weicoma as an
American fleet had never known out
side OF It's own country would he ac-
corded 1t by Australia, and the cheer
ing that followed this statement seem
ed evidence of the fact that the Au-
stralians one and all, have feeling
stronger than mere friendship for the
American people and their navy.
Premier Deakin. in his speech, advo-
Gated greater expenditures for ma
tional defense. He said that the bur-
den imposed, upon the people os Great
British for the maintenance OF their
naval and military forces was i,cGln-
ming to tell, and that wealthy Au-
stralians could not expect to enjoy
the privileges of the protection
against invasion without bearing their
share of the cost. The expenditure
recommended is $9,000.000 annually fol-
an army of 10000 men and fifteen coast
defense vessels.

minutes slashing with a cane was the
limit of endurance of one of the an
tagonists in the newest form of stu
dents duel. which has just occurred
outside this city, where 1t has been
decided among the students of the
Technical High chool to dispense In
future with deadly weapons for the
decision of affairs of honor. The
students met at a chosen spot, where
the seconds marked out a ring. The
antagonists then stripped to the waist,
each was handed a cane OF equal
length. and they stepped into the ring.
At the word of command of the direc-
tor OF the combat they began slashing
furiously. until finally, after quar-
ter of an hour. one of them over
stepped the limits OF the ring. He was
thereupon declared to be the loser. but
to the onlookers 1t was difficult to de-
