rjnlrk Mireesslon — Opinion- It Freely
Eiprmeil that the Wrongdoers Should
lt tl Lynched.
Mobile. July 29.—This city is in a
tnrmoii ;t> the result of three murders
which occurred during the night and
which have driven the people to the
highest pitch of frenzy. Business is
practically suspended. On all sides the
opinion is freely expressed that sum
mary justice should be meted out, aud
if the day passes without a lynching it
will be a wonder.
The first killing took place at 7 p. m.
Thomas Jones, 63 years of age, a con
federate veteran aud highly respected,
was done to death by Isah Davis, who
has already served a term for assault
with intent to murder a white man.
Jones attempted to got the negro out of
h ; « house, into which he had broken,
and meeting Davis in the yard a scuffle
followed. The negro, who is a power
ful man, about 30 years of age, entirely
overmatched Mr. Jones, and ehoking
him with one hand, picked up a cruci
form piece of wood, which had come off
the fence, with the other and with this
implement dealt the victim a crushing
blow on the left temple, breaking his
neck and killing him instantly.
The crowd which rapidly assembled
on the scene of tho murder was about
to lynch Davis, when a wagonload of
oflieers rescued him with difficulty and
he was incarcerated in the city jail, a
modern, stronply constructed building,
impossible of capture wimout great
loss of life. All mght loug a desperate
and determined crowd of men remained
outside the jail and are waiting their
opportunity when the prisoner would
be removed. Before midnight Mayor
Bush cahe i out the local troops, but of
the S00 men composing the First bri-
pde in this city only 78 responded.
With their officers they lay nuder arms
all night expecting a call.
The police force on duty during the
night had the custody of the prisoner
until morning, when he was brought
lef re the recorder. The coroner’s jury
and the lower court sent him up for
murder, though he tried to play off as
Insane.
Abom 1 a. m. a negro named Willie
Knight, known as the "Pensacola Kid,”
•hot and instantly killed another negro
named Daut ier. As lie was being ohased
by officers, Knight shot and mcrtally
vronnded P'idceman Joe Tucker. For
this latter offense he will die if the resi
dents of the north part of the city can
tet him out of the county jail.
The negro ran after the shooting, but
Fas intercepted by a telegram and ar-
tvsted by Section Boss Hubbard at Hur-

Over Three Thousand Soldiers*

Troops of tlin Republic Compelled to

hr the Victorian. Fanatic*—The Ground
Strewn With Corpse*.
New York, July 29.-A dispatch to
The Herald from Rio de Janeiro, Bra
wl. says that authentic information has
reached that city to the effect that more
than 8,000 soldiers have beenjcilled in a
big battle near Canudos.
The fanatics, numbering more than
10,000 men, all well armed, attacked
the government troops. Whole brigades
of soldiers were swept down and de-
stroyed or trampled under foot as the
victorious, fanatics, with wild shouts,
passed in trinmph over them. The in—
cannot be told. There is no reason to
doubt, however, that the loss on both
sides is more than 3.000.
For miles the ground around Canudos
is strewn with the dead and dying the
government troops being compelled to
leave their dead on the field and flee to
save themselves from complete destruc
tion by the avalanche of fanatics.
When the report of the awful battle
reached Rio Janeiro, it was considered
by the president and ministry, and it
was decided to send the minister of war
to the scene next week with 4,000 men,
who are now gathering. They will
carry with them a great store of ammu
nition aud will endeavor to dislodge the
fanatics from the positions they now
hold.
Fighting has been in progress at Oan-
udos for several weeks. In the mean
time, while the fanatics foaght appar
ently with little heart, they having been
gathering their forces from all direc
tions for tho final attack on the govern
ment troops, which led to such awfnl
results.
PENSION RULES REVISED.
Assistant Secretary of the Interior Web
ster Davis Makes Changes.
Washington, July 29.—A thorough
revision- of the rales governing the
adjudication of peusion claims under
the second section of the act of
June 27, 1890, has been made by Assist
ant Secretary of the Interior Webster
Davis and sweeping modifications in
the present practices are the result.
The chauges are embodied in instruc
tions to the commissioner of pensions,
in whioh it is stated that representa
tions were made that the present rales
under the administration of the law are
difficalt and embarrassing.
The new code, it is said, will furnish
a safe, speedy and uniform system of
adjudicating this large class of cases.
Assistant Secretary Davis holds - that
the very nature of pension cases forbids
the application of the strictness and
technicality of conrt proceedings, and
that it was not cougress’ intention to
hedge the administration of these laws
with difficulties aud pitfalls of any sys
tem of special pleading whose techni
calities and refinements may tend to a
practical defeat of the government’s
benevolent purposes. The modifications
are made in six rales and former rales
aud decisions in conflict with them are
set aside. The most important change
is made in the following rale:
"Every application for a pension un
der the second section of the act of Jnne
27, 1890, should state that the rale is
made under said section, the dates of
enlistment and discharge, the name or
nature of the disease, wonuds or inju
ries by which the olaimant is disabled,
and that they are not dne to vicions
habits, provided, however, that omis
sion of any of these averments shall not
invalidate the application (the intent to
claim a pension on being manifest and
the declaration being executed in ac
cordance with law), bat each applica
tions shall be subject to amendment by
means of a supplementary affidavit, in
the partionlars wherein it is defective,
said supplemental affidavit or affidavits
to be read in connection with and as a
part of such application itself; and, pro
vided farther, that a declaration in the
terms of the act shall be sufficient,”
Roles 2, 3, 5 and 6, the last two re
lating to vicions habits and increase
claims, are largely reiterations of pres
ent practices. Rule 4 makes essential
modifications.

Columbus. O.. July 29.— Bulletin Na
2 from the headquarters of the United
Mine Workers ol America to the miners
aud mine laborers of the couutry says
in part:
"We have greater confidence of vic
tory than ever. The supply of coal on
baud is still low and would have been
entirely consumed by this time were it
not for a few sectious of West Virginia,
southern Illinois aud a portion of Ken
tucky, central and uortheasteru Penn

has yet b en made to have them join
our movement—which, wheuTioue, will
soon decide the contest.
"The organized labor of the country,
without respect to forms or past differ,
ences. are making our fight their fight,
aud have thrown all available force,
morally ami financially, to our support.
"In western Pennsylvania 1.000 have
stopped work since iast the bulletin was
issued. This makes a total of 21,000
men now idle. In O.iio 28,000 men are
idle. In Kentucky, Tennessee aud In
diana no change has occurred since last
bnlletiu was issued. About 4,000 min

"The miners are congratulated on be-
ing peaceful and are counselled to con
tinue so. In Iudiatia the supply of coal
is almost shut off aud 8 000 miners niS
idle. Fully 35,000 mine workers in Illi
nois have laid down their toola The
suspension is practically general. The
coal miued is in the southern field. Or
ganizers believe that all will stop in a
few days.

.\n The average deigy-

9 man. There are many
1,1 reasons that contrib
ute to make him deli
cate. He lends a
sedentary life.
He doesn’t take
sufficient exer-
cise. Just the same
he is a hard-working
man. He- takes too
much trouble about
other people’s troub
les to trouble much
about his own. He
thinks too much
about other sick peo-
pie to look after his
own health. The re
sult is that the hard
working clergyman
becomes a semi-in-
, . valid early in life.
There ts no necessity for this. A clergy
man adds nothing to his usefulness but
greatly detracts from it, by neglecting his
health. If a man, be be clergyman or layman
will resort to the right remedy just as soon
as he feels out of sorts, and knows that he
is a little bilious, or that his liver is torpid
or his digestion is out of order, he will re
main healthy and robust and add much to
his usefulness and many years to his life

James H. Wallahs, the well known ex-
pert accountant and bookkeeper, of Detroit,
Midi., lately had a remarkable experience,
and a reporter called at his pretty home 240
Sixth Street, to interview him regarding It.
He found Mrs. Wallace in the midst of house

object 0/ his visit Mrs. Wallace said: ‘ You

Mr. Redmond** Efforts.
London, July 29.—As a result of the
•fforta of Mr. John Redmond, the Par*
nellite leader, it is probable that the
government will soon release the five
remaining Irish prisoners. Wilson, Bur-
ton, Dalton, Flanagan and Fetherstone,
now undergoing sentences of penal serf
▼itude for life in Portland prison.
Sir Matthew White-Ridley, the home
secretary, has already promised to treat
them as convicted under the dynamite
act of 1383, which sanies a maximum
penalty of 20 years imprisonment, in
stead of nuder the treason-felony act of
1848. Deducting for "good conduct
commutation,” the term of imprison
ment would be 15 years. All the five
have now entered the fifteenth year of
their imprisonment, and there are
strong hopes of a relief bofore the expi
ration of the year, as the result of the
special pressure brought to bear npon
the governor, supported by a large seo-
tion of the press.
It is thought probable that the forth-
cofhing visit of the Dnke and Duchess
of York to Ireland will be signalized by
the release of all Irish politioal pris
oners.
SIMMONS SURE TO SWING,

Greenville, a O.. July 29.—Austin
Simmons has been sentenced to be
hanged Sept 17, next Simmons was
convicted last November of the murder
of a little boy named Griffin at Pied

was convicted in November, but an ap

Thirteen British Soldiere Killed.
Bombay, India., Jnly 29.—The sitna*

Beooud attack on the fort The fight*
ing was severe. Thirteen of the Brit
ish were killed and 30 wonnded, among
the latter being Lisnteuant Gastello.
The tribesmen lost 400. The worst
feature of the situation now is that the

is feared that the whole supply will be
exhausted before reinforoements arrive.
The government is making the greatest
efforts to get these through in time.
Belgium Is After Foreigner*.
Brussels, July 29.—The chamber of
