Decatur. III., June 3 —Early this

jail and lynched SamueV J. Bush, the
negro who made a criminal assault on
Mrs. William H. Vest in Mount Zion

The above incident occurred, not
in the south, but in the state of Illinois.

watched the lynchers as they broke

for thirty minutes, then tney strung
him up to a telegrap'i pole.

How to Prevent Cotton Dllsli
BY B. V. It.
Among the bulletins of tho southern
experiment stations', cno of vain'*

• For tho purpose of devising m;uus to
cure this much dreaded cisousc. elab

station. A field of uniform soil was
selected for the purpose, which was

To some of these variou* fungicides

remainder we^e left Untreated to servo
for comparison. Carefnl observations
were made of the growth of the cotton
and of the appearance of blight, and
finally the cotton on each experiment
plat was separately harvested and:
weighed.
The results are striking in demonstrat
ing that by the use of kainit (about 400
pounds per acre) “cotton blight”.may be
entirely prevented. At tbe same time
the yield of cotton is largely increased.

He says:
“ The people of the north are not
justified in casting the first stone.
They are not without sin. History
does not warrant their assumption of
superior morality, nor will it exempt
them from equal responsibility for the
presence of the African race and the
existence of African slavery upon this
continent. Tbe conscience- of the
north was rot abnormally sensitive to
iniquiiies ot slavery so long

Richmond, Va., June 2.—Tbe r
mains of Joseph, William Henry and
Samuel Emory Davis, sons of tho late
president of the confederacy, and of
his grandson, Jefferson Davis Hayes,
were reintered in tho Davis section
at Hollywood this afternoon. Mrs.
Davis and her immediate family, to
gether with Mayor Ellyaon, president
of the Jefferson Davis Monument
Association, alone witnessed the con
signment of the bodies to the graves.
There was no fnnera* ceremony what
ever. \
Referring to the demonatrations
over the remains of ex-Prerident
Davis, the New York World says
The ceremonies are purely personal
and 8t ntim«n:a!. They reprxsent no
reinnan- of hostility to ti e govern
ment nor anv disseut Irom the final
.s*-tii*-ine!i;.-‘ *>f the war. Only the
UMtbi .king <>r the nialiguaut will at
tempt to give them h political com-
plexiou. Mr. Davis, it is true, was
a representative character. He was
the leading advocate of a theory, the
hoscu champion of a mighty move
ment and the chief ol a brave heroic
and self-sacriGciug people. But the
theory was buried in 1865 and will
know no iirmrrection. There are
even of those who suffered most
th»: it might live aud triumph who
now regret it3 death.

Faints at th« Mention of lllobd.
The district court is somewhat unde
cided as to what is the best course to
pursne in the case of the State versus
Edward Porter, charged with
another colored man named Clark with a
knife. Tho troublo arises over the fact
that Juror Oswald is taken with a fit
every time blood is mentioned, and tho
case has to rest until ho recovers. The
very mention of a wound or tho showing
of a knife sends him into a fit of shivers,
and tbe attorneys aro struggling along
in an effort to conduct tho caso without
tho nso of gory details. That is prac
tically impossible. The court cannot ro
leaso tho jury and try tho caso again un
der tho rule that a man once in jeopardy
is always in jeopardy and cannot be tried
twice, except in case of a disagreement.
The case is a peculiar one.—Minneapolis

K«t Up In American Geography.
Tho congenital inability of the British
mind to master tho trivial details of
American geography was never more
strikingly illustrated than in the London
Lancet’s recent report upon the Chicago
water supply. This was a long and very
carefully prepared paper, whose main
conclusions are donbtless as accurate
human skill can inako them, yet in the
opening paragraph wo are gravely ii
formed that a portion of the sewogo “j
pumped over a look into a canal, which
carries it far south into the Missouri and
eventually into tho Mississippi river.'
Evidently The Lancet man is blissfnlly
ignorant of the fact that tho Missonri t
river larger than a hundred of the
Thames, and '.raining a region upon
which all Britain would bo bnt a patch,
comes from tho other side of tho Missis
sippi.—New York Recorder.
