MANY LEP[RS ARE SLAIN
THIRTY-NINE PERSONS ARE DRIV.
EN- INTO PIT AND SHOT
AND BURNED.
Bayonets Drive Them to Death Is
Story of Chinese
Atrocity.

Shanghai, China.-Thirty-nine lep-
ers recently were put to death in an
atrocious manner by order of the pro-
vincial authorities of Marking, PROV
ince of Kwang-Si. The sufferers were
shot and their bodies We're burned in
a huge trench.
These advices were received here
in letters from the Catholic mission
at Marking, dated December IA. They
said the lepers lived in the woods a
few miles outside of Marking. The
mission sought permission to build
at it's own expense a lazaretto for
them and the provincial authorities
pretending to consent dug a pit in
which was placed wood soaked with
kerosene.
At the point of the bayonet and lep-
ers were driven into the pit and shot
and the pyre was lighted and their
bodies burned in the presence of
large crowd. The authorities offered
rewards for the discovery of other
lepers, and this resulted in the shoot
ing of one man afflicted with the dis
ease.

WHISKEY COST FORTY LIVES
Public Service Commission Places the
Blame for Wreck,

Albany, N. Y-The engineer had
been drinking the night before and
had slept less than three hours, hence
the wreck on the Delaware, Lacka-
wanna and Western railroad at Corn
ing, N. Y, last Independence day, in
which forty persons lost their lives
and seventy-five others were injured.
The state public service commission
so declared after a careful investiga-
ton.
William II. Schroeder, the engineer
thus accused, was indicted for man
slaughter but never brought to trial,
the indictment being dismissed upon
motion of the district attorney.
"The primary cause of the wreck"
reads the commissions report, was
the entire failure of Engineer Schroe-
der to observe signals. The train
into which he ran was protected by
full stop signal $50 feet east of the
rear of the train, by flagman $3.50
feet east and by caution signal
nearly 1880 feet east. All three sig
nails were disregarded.

COMING TO PALATKA|
DR.. Farrow arranging to
Visit Palatka Every 28
Days.
At the
New Arlington Hotel, from
Monday noon until Tuesday
noon, January goth and
21st.

Palatka is to be congratulated
DR.. FarrOW, the Jacksonville
Specialist, is comin6-Not for the
one visit, but is arranging to come
regularly every % days. This
doctor is no stranger as he has
treated and cured some of her
bejt known citizens at his off'co in
Jacksonville. This fact has had
much to do in inducing him to
come here.
This is certainly an exceptional
opportunity for the sick and afflict-
ed to secure the services of the
foremost specialist of the day at
their very door. The Doctor has
devoted years to the study and
treatment of chronic and special
diseases of men and women. He
is a graduate of a leading college
and hospital of the world, and
offers to the sick and afflicted the
most advanced treatment that the
world affords.
His success has been the marvel
of Jacksonville. He has affected
cures that seemed but little short
of miraculous, but the doctor
modestly denies the supernatural,
but attributes it wholly to his mas
terry of the cause of these old
chronic ailments.
DR.. Farrow treats Catarrh, Eye,
Ear, Nose and Throat troubles, and
Bronchial and Lung Diseases;
Spleen and Stomach and Bowel
troubles; Kidney and Bladder Dis
eases; Rheumatism, Headache,
Sciatica and Lumbago; Blood dis
eases, Deformities, Spinal troubles,
Piles and Rupture without cutting.
No matter what your trouble
may be, we would suggest that you
call upon the doctor and have a
friendly talk with him, as his opin-
ion might be the means of saving
you a great deal of suffering.
Hundreds of people have found
health and happiness in taking his
treatment, and so can you.
REMEMBER-Dr. Farrow's free
treatment offer is good only for this
visit. He is offering his services
free to the first Is that call during
this first visit, charging only for
the medicine. The free offer will
not be given again. Persons COM

twenty-five cases commencing

and complicated diseases, who have
failed to get cured and became
discouraged, are especially invited
to call, as thousands who have
given up all hope can testify to
permanent cures obtained.

Roosevelt and 1916

William Barnes, j, Endorses the proposition for a
srecial republican national convention next year, and
in doing so SAYS: II have never had any doubt that
MI, Roosevelt would present himself at the republi-
can primaries in 1916 if he retains his health"
This is the man known as Boss Barnes. He is 81
clever politician, by inheritance as well as by educa'
ton and practice. He plays the game according to
the New York rules. He knows Mr.. Roosevelt well
has worked with him, and then against him. He
worked against him at Chicago last year. In dis
cussing him he speaks By the card, so to say.
This view Of the matter explains Mr.. Roosevelt's
continued activity, and the repetition of his announce.
ment that the principles of the socalled progressive
party are essential to the c%ountry's salvation. If he
is to hope to cut any figure in 1916 he must have
an organization OF some kind behind him. Other.
wise, he would have nothing upon which to base
negotiations for compromise presidential nomination.
At the same time his continued activity will work
to the advantage of the democratic party. He brought
in Mr.. Wilson and a democratic congress last year,
and his services in this years state campaigns were
very valuable in strengthening the national admins.
tration before the country. His friends gave Massa-
cllusetts, New Jersey and Maryland to the democra-
tic tickets on the 4th instant.
Mr.. Roosevelts program for next year compre
hends progressive nominations for both house and
senate, and if made they should be effective for the
democrats wherever the two old parties under nor.
NAL conditions have waged close contests. Wherever
a few hundred or a thousand votes have hitherto been
invaluable to the republicans, the loss of them a
year hence will be a democratic gain.
Let US suppose, then, another democratic house
ard continued democratic control of the senate OBJ
tanned in this way, and that party equipped thus for
the next presidential campaign. What effect will that
have on the negotiations for a united opposition?
The republicans will put the responsibility on the
bull moosers, and the bull moosers will return the
compliment, and a lively exchange of reproaches will
follow.
All this is germane to the general question that
will confront the special republican convention next
year. 1t may not be suitable for formal discussion on
the floor, but it cannot we'll be avoided in the private
talks of delegates. The longer an evil runs the
more difficult it. is to remedy it; and whatever is
possible to remedy in republican divisions before
1916 had better be taken in hand before that time.
The party is sick, but sicker patients have recovered
under competent Observation-Disclosures Star.

In the Most SOvereiQn State

Senator Ben Tillman of South Carolina asserts
that Governor BIease of that state is initiating him
in his senatorial campaign methods. The senator
insists that Bleases remark about the constitution is
only an echo of the things Tillman used to say when
governor and running for the senate. He leaves the
distinct impression, though not so intending, that he
is displeased with imitation. Evidently he doubts,
now, that imitation is always the sincerest fattery.
1: will be recalled that Timon OF Athens, when visit.
ed in his retirement By the cynical philosopher, was
moved to great rage at the philosophers saying he
had come only to tell Timon to stop initiating him.
1t moved Timon sorely to find himself suspected of
following after the words and manners of one whose
tongue had long been the scourge of Athens. Those
who remember the Tillman Of the early COS can
have as much actual sympathy for Blease now %
every reader of Shakespeare's play has on read
ing Timon's heart-breaking wrath when told that he
IL regarded as a follower OF Appemantus.
Tinman had an obligarchy to fight. The Hamp-
tons and the Buffers were still the two reigning
Houses in the politics of his state. His effort was
to arouse the plain people and the common people,
against their cid lords and masters. In doing this he
made appeals so incendiary that newspaper cores
pondents who had been sent into the state to follow
lis remarkable campaign did not report him literally.
His utterances shocked the country even after run.
ming the gauntlet OF the correspondents, supplemented
by the blue pencils Of the editors. Tillman was a
painting furnace of consuming heat, a living, breath
Ing demon of fire and smoke. And the wild and
frenzted crowds which hung upon his words and
cheered his most diabolical expressions to an echo
we're foreshadoving not only the triumph Of Tillman,
but Of Blease.
Tnhnan's appearance in the field against Blease
IS 9 sign Of the desperation Of Blease's opponents.
That Blease is copying the Tillman OF the s9Os can
not beedenied, but he is doing this only because the
Tiluan Of the 90s proved what the plain people and
the common people" Of South Carolina like the most.
Tillnan made 9 promise to their ears which he has
broken to their hopes. Blease is now dealing with
