dramas shaped in the spirit of the

broad profound. universal morality, the
broad, sunny, universal common sense, -
as the antithesis OF modern problem plays
that are narrow IN their rebellious atti-
tude, limited in their appeal to humanity,
and so eircumscribed in veracity as TO
approach falsity.

much alarmed lest they be unable to pre-
vent Garfield's nomination. without a hui
initiating compromise. possibly with
George B. Cox. the Cincinnati leader.
Cox has been boosting the candidacy OF
Judge o. B. Brown, OF Dayton. and
has offered to bet 81 500 on his nomination
Because OF the bad ordor attaching Cox's

tasteful.

heap to-day by the positive announce
ment by Judge r. B, KInkade. of Toledo.
that he would not be a candidate. Kin
kade has visited both Taft and Roosevelt
within the last week, and Il was thought
that his nomination was probable. He

STATES COTTON IN BAD WAY.
Crop of south Carolina VIII Be
0ne-thfrd short.


Columbia. s c., July 22-Reports made
to 4. G. Smith, the United States crop
expert stationed here, show that cotton is
in bad way in South Carolina.
The average conditions as compared
with the general average for a number
OF years past is between 81 and Is per
cent. Most of the reports placed the
average at about 70 per cent, but some
fell below that mark.
1t is the general opinion Of cotton men
that the crop OF the State will be at least
one-third short. even IL seasons are ia
vorable from now on. II the season con-
tinues bad, the shortage will be even
greater.
The excessive rains are largely respon-
sible for the falling OF.

PUNISHED PROMPTLY.
Negro Found in Young Girls Room
Lynched.

Cairo, Ca, July 31.-Screams of
the young daughter of John Wade,
ten miles northest Of this place,
during last night, resulted in the cap
ture and lynching of negro who had
entered her room and was discovered
at her bedside.
The negro, entering through a
window, made a noise in the room
and the young girl awoke. She at
once began to scream and the mem
bers of the family rushed into the
room. The negro had no time to es-
cape, but dived under the bed and
lay still in an effort to save himself.
He was dragged out from his hiding
place at once.
News of the capture was sent from
house to house among the neighbors,
and a body of men quickly gathered.
A conference was held, and it was
decided to punish the negro imme-
diately. He was placed in wagon
and one end of a rope was tied about
his neck and the other tied to a limb.
The wagon was driven from under
him and a volley of shots rang out.

Woman Stays Doctor and Herself.

Pittsburg, Aug. 1.-The bodies OF
DR.. Murray Stewart a well-known
physician, and a woman were found
at II o'clock tonight, in room of
the doctors residence. Both had been
killed by revolver shots.
DR.. George Murray Stewart was one
of the most prominent young physi-
clans of the fashionable East Liberty
district. The woman was Edna Wal
lace, who was of middle age. A shot
through her right temple was appar-
emily self-inflicted after she had shot
and killed the doctor. A revolver ly-
ing by the woman's side strengthens
the police in this theory.
The double killing comes almost
on the eve of DR.. Stewart's marriage
to Virginia belle. The police believe
that jealousy of the doctors coming
marriage prompted the double trag-
edy. The police believe the shooting
occurred late last night or early this
morning.

Northern Malcontents Rebuked

Beverly, Mass, July 31.-Presl-
dent Taft has approved, without COM
ment, an opinion by Attorney Gener-
al Wickersham to the effect that
there is no provision by law which
the statue of Gen. Robert E. Lee,
in Confederate uniform, can be re-
moved from Statuary Hall in the
Capitol at Washington.
In addition to deciding the ques-
ton on a purely legal basis, Mr..
Wickersham argues the matter from
an ethical point of view, declaring
that Lee has come to be regarded as
typifying all that was best in the
cause to which he gave his services
and the most loyal and unmurmur-
ing acceptance of the complete over
throw of that cause. That the State
of Virginia should designate him for
that place in Statuary Hall as one
illustrious for distinguished military
service, the attorney general de-
clares, is only natural and would be
under the reading of the law.
Mr.. Wickersham's opinion was
called forth by protests to the presi-
dent from the department of New
York, Grand Army of the Republic.
