Teaching the Royal Salute.

Crossing the deck of the Kaiser Will
helm II. royal yacht with large mug
Of beer in his hand, one of the sailors
was startled by the sudden appearance
Of his royal master. He made most
clumsy attempt to salute with his free
hand, while his anxiety to prevent the
beer splitting amused his majesty.
Look here" said the latter, "you
didn't do that right. Let me show you
how 1t ought to be DONE" Telling the
man to fancy that he was the en-
peror, who was to be saluted, the kali
ser took the mug and retreated few
PAGES. Then, coming forward again,
stopping opposite to the sailor, he held
the mug to his lips, drained it, put it
down on the deck and gave the salute
with military precision. THAT'S the
way to do it," he remarked to the as
tonished seaman NOW go down
stairs and tell them to fill the mug up
again and give you one for yourself
Say it was who drank it."

ASSAULT.

Within the last few weeks the
wave Of criminals assaults upon
women in our state has been
sweeping over our state. We
are astonished most of these are
committed or alleged to be COM
mitted BY colored men. In OF.
tumwa, Ia, within two weeks
time two Of the most shocking
and brutal crimes that can be
committed was done on women,
the first crime was the brutal
killing Of a young lady who sang
IN the choir of the Swedish
Luthern church, her body was
found in a cellar, her slayer is a
Negro named John Junken who
has a bad character, had just
gotten out of the penitentary a
few days prior to this act; the
other was a travelling mans
wife, who, she claims a Negro
entered her house at night and
nearly killed her the outcries Of
her little s year old child saved
her life. These infamous brutes
white, black, red or yellow ought
be given the greatest punishment
under the law, the death penal
ty is too good for such Williams,
no person ought to extend a word
Of sympathy or aid to such per-
sons. We must let the world
know that we earnestly and reso.
|lutely condemn those guilty
without any reservation.
