Arabian shepherds, who observed

Grafton ago by the group of men
who founded the House of Quinby
in Boston. 1t is due to formula
by which few of the finest coffees
are blended to bring out the best
that is in each. Then these cofees

the last words Of of the three negroes lynched
in Duluth, Minnesota, last night.
He may have been guilty, or not, of the heinous

had the touch of inspiration of an exalted soul pre-

Aye, God be with them God be with any people

What was that lynching bee in Duluth last night,
and any other lynching, but manifestation of re-
