Axotuen murder by a Kentucky mob has been added to the disgrace. ful record of the state. This time a negro in Warren county is shot and *! hanged without examination or trial of any kind for the alleged writing of an insulting note to a white lady, 1 he was guilty he should have been punished, but few people are ready to say the offense deserved death And then the man hanged may have been guilty of no offense whatever Only a judicial inquiry can satisfac- torily establish guilt, Every man {| who participates in one of these mobs should be punished for murder.

She 1s 39 years of age, and leaves two children. If: the newspaper portraits may be trusted she cannot lay clam to striking beauty like that of her American congener. A pitt has been introduced in the House of Represensatives by Mr. Stewart, of Wisconsio, which may possibly be of interest to the people of Kentucky. It provides that the city or county in which mob violence results in destruction of property, injury or loss of life shall be liable for damages, and action may be brought against officers of the law for neglect of duty. In case of death sum not exceeding $5,000 shall be awarded the relatives of the deceased. When the general government, in the case of a foreigner, pays an indem- nity it can bring action for recovery against the state in which the person was killed. Tur silver Democracy is generally ing up to a realization of the pre- dicament it is in without the “gold wing of the party,and overtures for a reuaitivog of the forces, in which Tammany Hall leads, are being made. The silver branch of the rs shall have party will, before twoy! rolled around, be prepared to aban- don the fallacy that has wrought en es tne ta the enntee and two years hence it will not b heard of in the congressional con- ventions, if they receive encourage- such terms, But too many things have been said to allow cf an easy reconciliation. Ir has been stated by some news- papers, in commenting on the ap- pointment of Mr. Gage to be Secre- tary of the Treasury,that ‘ the gold staudard.”” It is presumed this saves was not in favor of the gold stan- dard. The truth is there never was the smallest ground for the assertion, Mr. McKinley’s record in favor of a sound and stable currency is as clear asa bell, Nomanwhom he might have selected would have been per- mitted to adopt a policy inimical to that of the Republican platform, which the American people endorsed so heartily at the polls in November. Mr. Gage was selected for the very reason that his views were consonant with those of the President-elect, Just north of Minnesota, in the Dominion of Canada, has been dis- covered what is claimed to be the richest deposit of gold in the world. Two young men out on a prospecting and hunting excursion were shown the ledge by an old Indian chief and bought it for a small sum of money office. The ledge or ‘‘dike’’ is said to be one and a quarter miles long and of an average width of 125 feet and to be exceptionally rich {assay- ing as high as $200,largely free mil- ling ore. One of the young men is Harry Folger, private secretary to ex-Governor Flower of New York, Governor Flower hag become inter- ested and steps will be taken at once to work it. Governor Flower states that the greatest mining boom of modern times is beginning to de- velop in the neighborhood of this great find. Offers have been receiv ed in excess of $1,000,000 for this property already, but promptly de- clined, The luck of these young men will cause hundreds of others to forsake the beaten path of plodding industry and frugality, the only sure road to a competency, for the glitter- ing promise of suddenly acquired wealth, which has caused thousands to die in poverty and disappointment who would have been successful —_—_—_— Srcnetany CaxiisLe bas been re} pusiness or professional men but for tained by the McKee scripholders to| the ‘gold fevei claims to’ propexty on the Chicago lake front, based on a loca- tion of scrip granted to an old soldier | rived in this country from Cuba, by the name of McKee.

The most exciting novelty of the wheeling season has been bicycle polo, which was practically unheard of until about a month ago, It is a rather dan- gerous gome. but not more so then polo as played with ponies at East Indian Meadowbrook hunt A low geared bicycle has de- cided advantages in playing it because it {9 so much easier suddenly to check or start it, Of course, the rider in bi- cycle polo must have a quick eye for distance, to be able to ride “hands off” at any angle, and to turn in the shortest compass.
