British Prince With French Fleet


Those for whom dates have a fascina
ton will not fail to note the coincidence
which the visit of the Prince of Wales to
the French Mediterranean fleet will mark
For the British prince will leave Paris
for his unprecedented vacation afioa,
June Is. the anniversary of the battle OF
Waterloo As a well trained British
schoolboy, and the son of a thorough
sailor too. memories of Trafalgar and the
battle OF the Nile can hardly fail to
please and plague him at once as he
sails under the flag which Nelson lowered
in those famous sea fights a century ago
Thus sharply does the present expedition
OF the British prince bring in contrast the
marvellous change which Anglo-Frenci
relations have undergone in recent years
Again the expedition itself, the three
or four days stay of foreign prince on
a French fleet going through the evolu-
tons OF war and attacking and repuls ne
the. attacks of hostile fleets, laying bare
the whole measure of French strength
and skill af1oat to a foreigner, suggests
no recent parallel in British or French
history.

Suggestion for Memorial Day.
from the Cincinnati Times-Star.


proposal made by j. w. Hamilton of
st. Paul. Miss. that on Memorial day
the school children of the country wear
either the national colors or a sprig of
evergreen. has been heartily Endorsed by
the President. who suggests that the
custom be adopted. not merely by the
children, but by the people generally. 1t
has frequently been said of late that be-
cause the public devotes so much of the
holiday to attendance at outdoor games and
sports of various kinds there is danger OF
Its real significance being lost. That danger
is probably not so great as many believe.
AS long as Memorial day shall be OBJ
served the reason for it's being set aside
as holiday will be well understood.
Nevertheless. the adoption of such q Gus
tom as has been suggested should serve
to emphasize the days significance in
many minds where Ii may now be given
seant consideration. 1t would be SEN
timental tribute to the nations heroes
that all should be glad to pay and which
would make them the better Americans
II they did pay it. The proposal is time
ly and it's prompt and general adoption
would be much to the credit of the
American public.

A Saving Consideration.

0 Motor Car,
You cause me grief:
My nerves you jar
Beyond relief.e
Your tires explode,
In mud You stick
Upon the road
Where 1t is thick.
Or maybe you
Will skid and spin
Where mud brand-new
Is sleek and thin.
With you I roam,
And every time
get hack home
Bedecked with CRIME.
Yet there endures
Affection strange
Which pranks OF yours
Can never change.
Resentments now
You bid me nurse:
And yet / vow
You might be worse.
Although my lot
You fill with pain.
I'm glad you're not
An aeroplane.

Negro Is Burned to Death by a Mob
in Tyler, Texas.

Tyler. Texas. May 25.-Dan Davis. a
negro, was burned to death at a stake
in the streets of Tyler early today
after he had confessed to assaulting
week ago. Two thousand persons par
ticipateC in the lynching.
Davis had signed {. statement con-
Tossing 20 the assault but before the
match was touched to the pile of wood
on which the negro had been bound by
the mob. he was asked again if he
we're guilty II am guilty. he cried
and a moment later the flames were
leaping high above his head.
Davis was brought here early today
from Athens, Tex. When members of
the sheriff's posse arrived at the Jail
with the negro, they were confronted
by several hundred citizens who waited
until the black had written his confess
sion, then demanded that he be turned
over to them.
officers and many citizens protested
but finally surrendered the negro to
the mob whose mum bers made protest
useless the officers say. From the jail
the prisoner was led to the public
square where several wagon loads of
wood had been piled. He was tied to
a rail and after he reiterated his con-
fession a match was applied and the
flames enveloped him. The mob stood
around the fire until it had died down
and little was left but charred bones
and ashes.
The work of the 1ynchers was done
quickly and quietly. The determine

H. ". BOMGARDNER IS
CANDIDATE FOR CORONER
Will Ask Republican Nomi-
natio.f-Has Made Good Record.

Coroner H. W. Bomgardner has an
nounced his candidacy for reelection
to the office he now holds, subject
to the Republican primaries, August
6, 1912. Mr.. Bomgardner was ap-
pointed late last fall to fill a vacancy
left by DR.. H. H. Keith, when the lat
ter removed to Roswell, N NJ. Since
his appointment he has been constant
ly on the job, and his friends urge
that he has made good in the office.
Contrary to the predictions of those
opposed to him, Mr.. Bomgardner has
showed no symptoms of "hogging'' I'M
dertaking cases by virture of his Of
flee. Universally he has consulted the
wishes of relatives or friends of the
dead with respect to the undertaken
wanted, and even in those cases where
no particular choice has been ex-
pressed he has taken less than his
share. He has the support of other
