Mob Killed Wrong Negro.

Beaumont. Tex. July 16.-Last night
a posse of over 1000 men were securing
the woods in this vicinity in an effort
to capture an unidentified negro, who
early yesterday attacked and beat into
insensibility a Is year old white girl.
Ada Bell Hopkins, fnflicting injuries
which may prove fatal 1t is the in
tention of the mob to inflict quick pun
ishment. Late yesterday an aged ne
gro was mistaken for the one sought
and shot to death. Last night the
mob burned two negro amusement re-
sorts and threaten to destroy other
buildings occupied by negroes in the
vicinity Of the crime.

several acres and although. the yield
was light yet 1t Yielded him a fair
profit and gave him an insight into
the possibilities in this line of farming
section have put out eighty-ffve acres
and at the present time the prospects
are splendid for a big crop. They
carefully prepared the ground last fall
and after working 1t this spring the
seed was put in with a disc drill. One
seed was put only about an inch be-
low the surface. The rains have put
this crop in fine condition. and yield
double that received per acre last year
is expected. These four farmers ex-
pect to ship a car of seed next fall and
since the seed is worth 81 per bushel
it will doubtless prove a very profit
able experiment

taking to escape the action of the
convention.
IT understand most fully that this
great demonstration has J not the
slightest political significance. 1t was
my pleasure years ago to be one OF
the speakers at q great demonstra-
ton given in honor of that great In
dianan, BENJAMIN Harrison, when he
returned to citizenship after an hon.
orable term of service as president of
how glad was to take part in the
exercises at the home Of Mr.. Fair
banks when he returned from his
convention bearing the same honor
which I now wear, and a little later
when the election took place and he
had been elected by a majority that
has never yet been counted. within
twenty-four hours after I had gone
down to defeat under a plurality of
something like $4,000, 1 arose from
of congratulation to my victorious
friends (app1ause and laughter.)
my strength will not permit me to
continue much farther. 1 want to
say to you here tonight and want all
to hear and understand that whether
you vote for me or not in Novem-
ber. love you just the same (cheers
and applause.) All I ask of you, and
1 am sure my friend here Gndicat-
ing the vice president) will join in
the request that every voter study
the issues before the people. from the
standpoint of patriotism, that he in
form himself as to the right or wrong
of the question at issue, and then
when you have made up your mind
thus fntelligentlys and . patriotically
then with the strength of American
manhood go and deposit your vote for
the right as God gives you power to
see the right and we will abide by
your judgment as expressed at the
polls"

UP TO THE AVERAGE.
Rush of Eastward Atlantic Travel as
Great as Usual.

Nav York. July 16.-The rush of
Atlantic travel eastward still con-
tinues to be almost up to the average
of former years. Steamship agents
assert that the season was later than
usual this year, but that it has made
amends for the falling off in the
earlier sailings and promises to con-
tinue later than usual. The three
lines leaving today with full cabins
for Europe are the last to sail on the
high summer schedule. as the win
ter rates eastward go into effect to-
morrow.
The minimum fare is the same all
the year around, but the rates for the
best cabins are practically cut in
half. For instance, a deck cabin on
the Lusitania. sailing today that costs
$500 for one passenger. will only be
$500 on the Mauretania, sailing on
July %.

FOR MESMERlzING
Prof. Griffith Arrested for
Hypnotizlng q Boy.
The Subject Was Ensconsed in
Netting and Sheets.
COULDN'T WAKE HIM.
Fort Scott Officials Remember
Subject of Prof. Flint.
Later Went Crazy and Slew Rel.
ative With a Hatchet.

Fort Scott, Kan. July 16-The Tri-
bune SAYS:
At dawn this morning passersby
along North Main street saw the form
OF a mere boy ensconsed in netting
and sheets and fast asleep-the result
OF the mesmeric work of Prof Griffith,
the performer who opened an engage
ment here last night at a tent on Eddy
street A great many complaints were
registered against this by people who
were up town and by those whose
places made it possible for them to
be within short distance of the boys
hgure all day long. The complaints
became so rife that a conference of
lawyers resulted to probe into the mat
ter and see If legal wrong was not
being committed along with the ap-
parent violation of the finer sensibili-
ties that should govern such things.
MT. Caldweli, the county attorney, was
notlned OF the situation and an appeal
was to be made to the mayor to put
stop to the practice, calling a special
meeting of the council as it was re-
saroed necessary to enact an ordin-
ance covering the affair But Mr.. Cald-
well needed no such impetus. He is
sued a complaint, swearing to the
same himself. and Deputy Sheriff Geo.
Cowan was given the process and or
dered to arrest Griffith. He went to
three or four hotels shortly before noon.
but did not find the professor. At IL
O'Clock, however, he ran across the
professor coming down Main street
and he at once read the warrant and
took Griffith to the office of Judge
Volker. Griffith is to be tried for CIV
ing hypnotic exhibitions with a person
under Is years of age. He says the
subject is young man 20 years of
age, but those who have seen the boy
declare that he does not look a day
over 16 years old.
Griffith declares that there is abso-
lutely no sham in this connection,
that he will be awakened tomorrow

PROSPECTS BRIGHTER.
May Not Be Necessary to Force
Question of Wage Reduction.

Strong grounds exist for hoping
that the railroads will not find it
necessary to force to an issue the
question of a general wage reduction
because of the depression that has
existed for the last nine months in
the commercial and industrial inter-
ests of the country.
Last week ii was feared that a
conflict between the roads and their
employees might be started by some of
the southern roads forcing the issue
to a final settlement, but wiser coun-
sells prevailed, and further considera-
tion of the whole matter has been
postponed until October 1. BY that
time, 1t is hoped, the traffic situation
VIII have so improved that the
roads will see their way to continue
the present rate of wages indefinitely.
Out of a trying situation there has
been one development gratifying to
all fntrusted with the operation of the
railroads. That is the demonstrated
greater efficiency of railroad labor
and the benefits to the companies
that have resulted therefrom 1t has
been the effort of the managers, in
reducing forces, to retain the best
workmen and the result has been that
the ratio of operating expenses to
gross earnings has been greatly de-
creased.
signs of the expected Improvement

hand. From all sections of the coun-

ports of crop conditions. The wheat
