NEW YORK MOB
TAKKS REVENGE ON INNOCENT
NEGROES
For. tlie Murder of a Polie-m in
Nr\v York Rivals Neiv Orleans.
The people and press of New York
have had a great deal to say abont the
recent lamentable occurrences in New
Orleans, when a negro desperado in
voked an infuriated mob by the mur
der of policemen and brought down
blind vengeance on innocent members
of bis race, the hoodlums only bein
put down by an armed force of New
Orleans’ best citizens.
But New Orleans, if she were so dis
posed, conld now point the finger of
scorn at New York, for a similar tragedy
occurred last week in that great metrop
olis. As a matter of fact, New York
ehonld have known better than to throw
stones at New Orleans, for it is a matter
of history how New York mobs bunted
and killed unoffending negroes in that
city daring the Civil War, regarding
them as the cause of the terrible strife.
Bnt to return to the present: A
policeman attempted to arrest a negress
a week ago Sunday. A couple of ne
groes took her part, and carved the
policeman np so badly with their razors
that he died on Wednesday. His
neighbors and friends at once proceded
to avenge^ bis death by brutally at
tacking and beating every negro they
could catch, and many were fatally
iujnred. —.
It took four hundred policemen to
finally qnell the mob, and many of
the policemen themselves found a sav
age pleasure in nsing their clnbs to
avenge their dead comrade.
All this—coming as it does from the
center of civilization”—makes mighty
interesting reading down here in Dixie.

The Blood on the Knife.
“For the last ten years,” said a cu
rio dealer in the Old Quarter, “a broad
blnded dagger with an imitation bronze
handle lias-been lying among a lot of
odds and ends in that corner showcase.
I don’t know where it came from, bnt
I probably got it when buying some
collection. At any rate, the other day,
while looking over my dead stock, It
occurred to me it might be burnished
up and used as a paper knife. I took
it out, scraped the handle a little to see
what it was made of and then laid It
on my desk to attend to a customer^
“When I picked it up again, I was as
tounded to find the blade dripping with
blood. It seems a childish thing to tell,
but the Incident was so grewsome and
apparently inexplicable that It set me
trembling like a leaf. In a moment,
however, my common sense came to
the rescue, and what proved to be the
correct explanation flashed Into my
mind.
“It was a trick dagger, for use either
on the stage or In some sect^t society
mummery, and the hilt contained a
hidden reservoir for artificial blood.
In scraping the side I had pressed a
spring which opened a little valve, and
out came the gore, still fluid, after all
these years. I afterward found that
the top unscrewed for replenishing the
supply.”—New Orleans Times-Demo-

KILLED BY THE CARS.
WILL GAMMON, OF ROME, FELL
UNDER TRAIN
At f’artersville—Leg Tut Off, and He
Dies from Shock.
Will Gammon, a bright yonng Home
boy, met with a fatal accident Friday at
Cartersvilie, where he went as a member
of the “Borne Juniors,” to play a match
game-of base ball.
The ball gronnd was abont a mile out
of town,end yonng Gammon and others
on their way to the field jumped on a
passing W. & A. freight train. In jump
ing from the train, yonng Gammon lost
his balance and fell nnder the wheels.
His left leg was cut off below the knee,
his head was severely ent, and he was
otherwise badly braised np. The shook
to his system was so great that he never
rallied, and died within a few honrs.
The yonng man was the seventeen-
year-old son of Mr. J. A. Gammon, one
of Borne’s moBt prominent citizens,and
was a nephew of ’Sqnire B. Gammon,of
Collard Valley.
It will be remembered that Will’s
elder brother, Von, was killed in a foot
ball game in Atlanta abont three years
ago.

Beds.
We cannot tell with any certainty
when the first portable furniture was
invented, and, to judge by the ark as
it survives among our children, Noah
was either ignorant of such things or,
and more probably, denied himself
their use for the time being in order
to leave more room for the animals.
But long before Cowper somewhat
apologetically sang the sofa Homer
was proud to enumerate the cherished
and decorated pieces of furniture In
the tents of the heroes before Troy
and described Odysseus’ pleasure in
seeing once more his own beautiful
bed as sympathetically as any other
incident of the return, while that he
had a second best bed is one of the
very few personal facts we know re
garding onr Shakespeare.
Shades of Ulysses and Shakespeare!
A bed was a bed then. In Greece, a
couch worthy of a hero; In England,
a miniature stage of life, with its tap
estried roof and hangings and curtains
that rose or fell with fitting pomp on
the great scenes of the domestic dra
ma.—Chambers’ Journal.
Tales of the Nose.
Indented nostrils evidence meanness,
wide nostrils a spendthrift. . A tip jut
ting out far from the face is a token of
vulgarity, refinement being the pos
session of the owners of noses that do
not stand out far at the end. An aqui
line bend denotes firmness of will and
sense of justice; the long, narrow
bridge proclaims a fastidious, self suf
ficient yet often tender nature. All the
active qnalities—combativeness, eager
ness, passionate temper, power of ha
tred, jealousy, ambition—go* with the
more common type of Homan Dose.
The Greek form, on the contrary, tells
of artistic capabilities aud love of in
animate beauty.
Trees and Landowners In Etnsland,
By the general laws of England oak,
ash and elm are “timber” if not youn
ger than 20 years, or so oid that a good
post cannot be cut from them. What
constitutes “timber” varies slightly ac
cording to locality, but when a tree is
proved to be “timber” a person who
has only a life interest in the land it
grows upon cannot cut it down unless
It be on an estate cultivated solely for
the production of salable “timber” or
unless he hasaspecial agreement giving
him ppwer to do so. A mere life ten
ant may not even cut down trees which
are not "timber,” but which would at
the age of 20 years attain that dignity.
Botanists differ as to the poisonous
nature of yew trees. There ate many
instances both of their poisonous and
their harmless effect when browsed by
horses 'and cattle, but the partially
drjed clippings of yew are certainly
most dangerous. If a yew tree over
hangs a neighbor’s land and his horses
eat the yew without trespassing, the
owner of the tree is liable to pay for
any injury the horses may sustain. On
the other hand, if the horses or cattle
cannot browse on the tree without pat
ting their heads over the fence the
owner of the horses must bear the loss,
for his animals have trespassed.—Lon

SIEGED LEG ATI ONERS.
IVkiti Falls Before the Intrepid
Armies of the Allies.
The allies have entered Pekin, and
the members of the American and
Enropean legations have been rescued
from their great peril.
For several weeks United States
Minister Conger and his family and the
representatives of the Enropean gov
ernments and their families, have
been besieged within the walls of the
British Embassy in Pekin by a horde of
fanatical Chinese Boxers, whoEe hatred
of everything foreign had finally cul
minated in acts of desperate violence.
The smallness of the available forces
and the open jealousies among the
great Powers caused much delay in
sending them assistance. But the ar
rival in China of onr gallant Gen
Chaffee with instructions to proceed at
once to their relief, brought the other
Powers into line.
The Chinese were badly routed in a
desperate battle at Tien Tsin, and from
that;point the allied forces have had
comparatively little opposition.
On the 15th inst. the allies effected
an entrance into Pekin with only
slight loss, and were joyfully welcomed
by the besieged legationers. Since
that time they have been doing good
work in cleaning out the riotous elo
ments of the great city.
China now wants peace, and has ap
pointed Li Hang Chang commissioner
to negotiate terms with the Powers. In
other words, China has had enough of
war, is and now going to pay for her
foolishness as cheaply as possible,

Tlie Army In the Field,
The layman cannot easily realize the
vast amount of nitrterial as to food and
ammunition demanded by an army In
the field. A few facts and figures as
to this may aid to make it more tangi
ble. Each man requires, at a mini
mum, three pounds and a half of food
per day. Each animal should have at
’least 20 pounds of food In countries
where grazing Is not abundant If we
take, for purposes of estimate, only 15
pounds required to supply each animal,
leaving five pounds to be gathered from
the country by grazing and otherwise,
we assume a quantity that -may he con
sidered a minimum.
An army of 150,000 men would re
quire about 50,000 animals for trans
portation of artillery, camp equipment,
ammunition, food, hospital and med
ical equipment. There should not be
less than 30,000 cavalry. There should
not be less than 10,000 animals avail
able at all times to supply losses. This
makes a total of 90,000 animals to be
fed. With this as a basis we see that
the dally demands would be for the
men 525,000 pounds and for the horses
1,350.000 pounds, or an aggregate of
1,875,000 pounds. This Is equal to
something more than 830 tons per day.
—Captain Zalinskl In Harper’s Weekly.
The Finger Nalls.
In days \tfhen superstition was more
prevalent than it Is now the shape and
appearance of the finger nails were
considered to have reference to one’s
destiny. To learn the message of the
finger nails it was necessary to rub
them over with a compound of wax
and soot and then to hold them so that
the sunlight fell fully on them. Then
on the homy, transparent substance
certain signs and characters were sup
posed to appear, from which the future
could be interpreted. ~ Persons, too,
having certain kinds of nails were cred
ited with the possession of certain
characteristics. Thus a man with red
and spotted nails was supposed to
have a hot temper, while pale, lead col
ored noils were considered to denote a
melancholy temperament. Narrow nails
were supposed to betray ambition and
a quarrelsome nature, while round
shaped nails were the distinguishing
marks of lovers of knowledge and peo
ple of liberal sentiment. Conceited,
narrow minded and obstinate folk were
supposed to have small nails, indolent
people fleshy nails and those of a gen
tle, retiring nature broad nails.

Tlie Arab’s Little Game.
In The Agricultural Journal of the
Cape of Good Hope appears an article
on the vitality of wheat from Egyptian
mummy cases. It Is often asserted that
samples of Wheat from the same crop
as that which Joseph stored In Pha
raoh’s granaries has been taken from
mummy wrappings and, when planted,
has grown. This Is very likely erro
neous, as the Arabs have a habit of
selling to tourists samples of grain
which Lave In all likelihood come from
the nearest field instead of from the
ancient tombs. Indeed in many in
stances this “mummy grain” has beep
corn, and, as corn was not known until
it was brought from America, the
fraud is apparent

ATLANTA DAILY CONSTITUTION
Now Banning a Special - Campaign
Offer, Only $1.00.
The Constitution of Atlanta, Ga., is
now offering its Daily and Sunday
editions complete to new subscribers,
from the date the order reaches that
office until November 10th .for only
$100. This last campaign offer will
cake the subscriber beyond and give
him the full news of the Presidential
election. The period thus covered will
be of unusual interest, not only be
cause of the election and the questions
pending thereon, but it will be full of
events, and guesses at the truth of
reported events in China. Tile
struggle is on between the “yellow
terrors” and tlie “foreign devils” and
it. will consume the world’s attention
for many months to come. It is prob
able lliat South Africa will become
peaceful on a basis that will allow the
spunky Boers to lay down their arms
with honor. Cuba and the'Pliilippines
are with us until their status is deter
mined: their questions will continue
to be ours. The" Constitution always
covers all the news completely and
this exceptional offer will doubtless
test their full capacity in supplying
the paper lo thousands of thirsty
subscribers. The sonner you send for
it tlie longer you will get paper for
onr dollar.

Chinese are dangerous enemies, for

blood poisoning. For piles, injuries
