TUESDAY, MAY 2,1899. G000 EVENING. TheNew Jersey man who claims to have a snake that can play a piano will be sure to make a gold-cure finish. The list of casualties indicate that the Ameiican Officers led the charges while the Filipino officers led the re- ' treats. Diogenes is said to have lived in a tub. If it ever held anything like' the Sohth Norwalk water no wonder he, was a cynic. It is consoling to think that it is a long lane that has no turning, but not so pleasant to contemplate the fact that many a short one ends in a stone fence. A new South Carolina. law makes the county in which a lynching occurs pay the'victim’s relatives $2,000. This may Abring the lynchers up with a round turn. As the situation now stands, Capt. Coghlan should not have said it; but most Americans are glad that he did say it. He is convicted of indiscretion, but if he will step into the next room he will find pic on the table. And so the Daughters Of the Revolu- tion and the Daughters of the Ameri- can Revolution will not amalgamate, and the dizziness occasioned by the multiplicity of all these patriotic asso- ' ciations of women will go on uncheck- ed. System, as applied to housekeeping or to business, is a jewel of great price, but that absolute slavery to Old-time custom that makes a woman tear up a certain part of her house on a certain ' day, no'matter whether a blizzard or a simoon reigns. is as much an indication Of narrow-minded prejudice as it would be for her to insist on riding to New York in a stage coach because her an- cesto 115 did. A youngwoman from the University of Nevada had her nose «broken in a basket ball game 'in San Francisco on Saturday last. If the newspaper counts are to be credited, she seems to ac- have been rather proud of the distinc- tion. And yet we hear daily protest against the shocking brutality of glove contests. It is very, very seldom now- adays that a pugilist can rise to the dignity of a broken nose, even after the most hotly contested. battle. It is hard to speak temperately of the latest development of mob-law in Georgia. The horrible stories of tor- ture and burning recall the old frontier tales'of Indians’ ferocity, and it seems things could happen in the Empire State of the South within a short distance Of a mod- that such ern city like Atlanta. It has to‘be remembered that from the point of view of the Southern farmer, the vagrant negro is not. a fellow-man buta ferocious wild ”131311th and that any cruelty may be justified that is necessary to protect the househol against him. In the inhuman dcbauch of these lynchings we can see, of course, the famillar ferocity of a mob, as we can read of it repeatedly in history, but These people have tried the process Of_ law it was not entirely vindictive. without result; they have tried hang- , and still their women are not safe; now they seek to terrify the negroes by unheard of cruelty. It is wr‘ong, it is dreidfal, it is revolt ing. It is a disgrace to the great State of Georgia. -————————‘0-0>————~————— There is a Class of People Who are injured be the use of coffee.
