Just back of the old cathedral at

that town will also have five suburban
gardens for the workingmen of the
city.
AS I look over some Of the items Of
the new construction I can get a faint
idea OF where this vast amount Of
money is going. At one time the gov
ernn1ent ordered 100000 doors and
10000 windows, and the same pur-
chase included 100000 hinges and
hundreds of thousands of faucets. 1t
buys iron beds four feet wide by the
tens of thousands, and single order
was given for $4,000 school desks and
seats
All this is paid for by the state.
While the war was still on the gov
ernment decided that it would pay in
full all Of the war damages to indi-
viduals and towns and demand the
money back from the enemy. Every
loss was to be paid. no matter how
it occurred. This included furniture.
machinery, deterioration, acquisitions
as to lodgings. and the money re-
quired to bring the farms back to
their old state Of cultivation. The
law which provides for these meas
ures is so long that 1t would fill just
about ten columns of tho ordinary
newspaper.

The petition goes into great detail as
to Stewards alleged connection with
the lynching of Williams last June.
He was one of special deputies sworn
in by Judge Thomas to help protect
the negro because of threats Of mob
violence and the race trouble that
followed the murder Of Lorean
Wilkes, Ia year old daughter Of a
widow. Williams was tried, convict
ed and sentenced to hang, but was
taken from the officers just as they
emerged from the upper floor Of the

steps toward a special train which
was waiting to carry the prisoner to
some other town for safe-keeping.
