BROWNSVILLE ORDER JUST.
Senator Borah UphoIds Order Dis.
charging Negro Soldiers.

Washington-The affray at Browns.
lille. Texas. again called forth the
most Intense interest in the Senate
Monday.
Senator Borah OF Idaho. taking the
ground that the testimony showed con-
slusiVely that the negro soldiers of the
Twenty-iitth regiment shot up the
own. gave careful analysis of the
'V'dence in the case.
There was an unusually large mum.
Der oi senator's present on both sides of
he chamber and they carefully fol
owed the arguments presented by Mr.
B3rah-
The speech was made notable by
many striking passages of oratory and
attracted general interest. Besides
containIns an analysis of the testimony
taken in the Brownsville case. il was
in reply TO Senator FOraker's recent
discussion of the same subject.
During the speech Senator Borah
took occasion to express strong dsap
nroval OF any effort to secure leniency
for Harry Orchard.
Mr. Borah made very clear his be-
lief that the evidence established a
No''l''"NN VII vie pdl vi Splll' VI 'il'
negro soldiers of the Twenty regi-
ment TO shoot up the town.
Il contend" he said, that the evil
dence in this case Is simply overwheim-
ing and conclusive against the cOl0red
soldiers, unless you resort to the prop.
osition # a conspiracy which manufac-
tured the evidence. and that is evi
dently the view taken by the defense"
The morale of the army. he said, is
paramount to any mans right to re-
main in it. II any man in the Twenty
hfth regiment participated in the riot
and if others connived the crime, by
conccaling knowledge of it to shelter
the guilty parties, then both were
guilty alike, he declared.
Mr.. Borah called attention to Mr..
FOraker's suggestion that the citizens
OF Brownsville might have shot mp the
town to secure the removal of the ne
gro soldiers.
"Now, confess" he said, that there
might possibly have been a desire to at.
tack the soldiers, but it seems that this
conspiracy, if it had existence. would
not have turned its guns upon its own
people"
Mr. Borah reviewed at length the tes
timOny in the case and then announced
his conclusion that st discloses til :
guilt of certain members of the Twenty
fifth infantry as participants IN IL"
Brownsville affair beyond reasonable
doubt
Mr. B1rah dwelt at some length upon
the accomplishments of the negro race
since he abolition of slavery anl
found much cause for congratulation;
but. he said, this fact could not cx
cuse individuals from punishment for
crime even if such leniency should b.
In the interest Of the race, which 1t
would not be.

Lord Cromsr Throws Light on History
of Hero Of Sudan.

In his book. Modern Egypt" Lord
Cromer Tor 20 years the representa-,
tive Of British authority in the land
OF the khedive. gives the other side
OF the heroic story of Gen Gordon's
rule in khartum. where he was slain
by the fanatical natives. Lord Gro
mer twice rejected the proposal to
send Gordon to the Sudan. Would"
he says, that had done so thirl
time!" He soon woke to Gordon's
variability. lie says: ''Impulsive
fiightiness was. in fact. the main de.
feet of Gen. Gordons character, and it
was one which. in my opinion, rem
dered him unfit to carry out a work
which pre-eminently required cool

20 or 80 kilograms from Gen. Gordon
In the course of the day when he was
in khartum. those in the evening often
giving opinions which it was impos
sible to reconcile with others dis
patched the same morning"
This stream Of kilograms from
khartum was so continuous that Lord
Cromer had to adopt IA special meth
cd OF dealing with them. Il gen
orally found a batch of them wait.
Ing for me when | began my work
In the morning" he says. My prac
tice was to put them on one side and
wait TIL the afternoon. by which time
more had generally arrived. used
then to compare the different tele-
grams to try to extract from them
what It was that Gen. Gordon
really wanted. and then to decide
what could be done toward carrying
out his wishes
Lord Cromer says. also: "One of
the leading features of Gen. Gordon $
strange character was his total ab.
sence of self-control. He was liable
to fits of ungovernable and often of
most unreasonable passion. He
formed rapid opinions without delib.
Grafton and rarely held to one opinion
long His journal, in which his
thoughts from day to day are re
corded, is, even in the expurgated
form in which it was published. a
mass OF inconsistencies
Gen. Gordon's courage is warmly
praised by Lord Cromer. who says fur
ther: MANY man before Gen. Cor
don has laid down his life at the call
of duty. Many man, too has striven
to regard death as a & i'd relief from
pain, sorrow and suffering. But no
soldier about to lead forlorn hope

or thrown TO the wild beasts of ancient
Rome. ever faced death with more un-
concern than Cen Gordon

This sign is permanently attached
to the front of the main building Of
the Lydia +. Pinkham Medicine
Company, Lynn, Mass.
What Does This Sign Mean?
1t means that public inspection of
the Laboratory and methods of doing
business is honestly desired. 1t means
that there is nothing about the bus
mess which is not "open and above
board"
1t means that permanent invita-
ton is extended to anyone to como
and verify any and all statements
made in the advertisements of Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
Is it a purely vegetable compound
made from roots and herbs - with
out drugs?
Come and See.
Do the women of America continu-
ally Use as much of it as we are told ?
Come and See.
Was there ever such a person as
Lydia Z. Finkham, and is there any
Mrs. Pinkham now to whom sick
woman are asked to write?
Come and See.
Is the vast private correspondence
with sick women conducted by
women only, and are the letters kept
strictly confidential
Come and See.
Have they really got letters from
over one million, one hundred
thousand women correspondents
Come and See.
Have they proof that Lydia f.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has
cured thousands of these women?
Come and See.
This advertisement is only for
doubters. The great army of women
who know from their own personal
experience that no medicine in tho
world equals Lydia +. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound for female ills
will still go on using and being hem
Gifted by it; but the poor doubling,
suffering woman must, for her own
sake, be taught confidence, ,forshe also
might just as well regain her health.

A young curate. who was showing
an American girl through an old Eng

Bible rested on the outspread wings
of a powerful wrought bronze eagle.
At the base OF the lecturn, another
symbol of the Gospel was presented In

Brownsville affair, found opportunity
TO express his disapproval OF any ef-
fort to secure leniency for Harry Or
chard, the self-confessed thrower of
the bomb which caused Governor
Steunenberg's death. He said:
"A cold-blooded. inhuman, incarnate

CHINESE FAIR WAS A
VERY GREAT SUCCESS

The Chinese fair at the Fort street
church, which began Friday evening.
continued yesterday with great sue
cess. In the evening especially there
were very large crowds, and business
at the various booths was carried on
at a brisk rate.
The Chinese attended in large num-
bers and were generous purchasers of
the many articles for sale. To Amer
leans the affair was intensely inter
esting because of the real touches of
Chinese art and of Chinese life.
One feature that was very much APP
preciated was the series of stereOpti-
con pictures of life and scenes in
China. These were pictures, many of
them excellently colored, taken by
Rev. w. D. Westervelt during his stay
in China some five years ago. Among
these. of special interest, were the pie
lures of the Ming tombs and of the
statuary leading to the tombs. Mr..
Westervelt himself presented the
views, accompanying them with inter
esting description and comment.
From financial point of view, also,
the fair was a success.

The boatman had been angered by
the asinine behavior Of 4 young fellow
among the party which he had taken
for sail. When the boat sprang a
leak far out from the shore the boat
man somewhat allayed the alarm Of
the rest of the party by serving out
life belts. but he gave no belt TO the
would-be wit. "Where's mine?' said
the terrified youth. Don't you worry,
my lad - said the boatman, with vim
dietive smile. ''You don't need no
