N. Y. Bun.
All is not lost. Honor, or at least
one honor, remains. Dave Culber¬
son, of Texas, is elected by 2,000
majority, ao tbe Democracy retains
“tbs Father of tbe House’’ to swear
in a Republican speaker. By one of
tbe unwritten laws of national poli¬
tics perpetuated by both parties tn
congress, that member of the bouse
of representatives who has been
longest in consecutive service be-
thereby the father of tbe
He enjoys some dignities,
and one of his honorary prerogatives
is to swear in tbe new speaker. It
seemed, until yesterday, that tics
dignity would necessurily devolve
upon an Illinois Republican, David
B. Henderson, elected in 1874, < r
Joe Cannon, elected in 1872 but-
beaten in tbe contest of 1890. It is
not pleasant for tbe militant uod
unterrified, but somewhat diminish¬
ed, Democracy to be confronted by
iblicao speaker; and to have
sworn in by another Republican,
all Democrats in years

necessary baidship.

Outlawry la Georgia.
Bronx*ink Timm.
A few days since Governor Atkin¬
son was notified of a proabable
lynching at Mootfcello and took im¬
mediate precaution to supply mili¬
tary aid to prevent it. Within an
hour’s time be bad a special train iu
readiness at Macon, and e detach¬
ment ready for tbe call of tbe sheriff,
who bad been Instructed bow to pro¬
ceed in the matter of vindicating the
law. A few momenta later he receiv¬
ed a message that tbe negro, who
bad been charged with rape, tried,
c.-nvicted and sentenced to death at
an early day, had been taken from
tbe jail by a mob of citixens and
Ifroched.
With temper and sentiment
wrought to an abnormal pitch by
tbe fiequency of brutal assaults upon
women and childreo tbe spirits and
acts of lynch ifiw have been too gen •
erously condoned tn the South, by
public expression and newspaper
comment, until e$ch community
feels that its duty has not been per¬
formed until such occurrences of out¬
rage bavs been followed by a lynen-
lug. However much we may attempt
to justify the outbreak of incensed
spirit at tbe moment of lost reason,
we cannot escape the responsibility
which leads fb the outrageous and
unjustifiable commission at Monti-
cello. Here a prisoner, in tbeciutches
of the law and condemned to legal
death, is taken iu open hostility to
the laws, half enforced, aod as if in
actual rebellion to its behests, mad
|y resented.
II, however, Governor Atkinson,
shall pursue the course which he has
determined upon, and bring the of
fenders to justice at all hazards and
in spits of whatever community assemble jus¬
tification which may to
shield the violators, it may set a
good example to the benefit of the
State. is
The Georgia penalty for and rape
ample in its punishment, tbe re¬
cent rule of quick trial by our courts
is a step toward giving redress more
in accordance with the civilisation
that should obtain in our State.
We need a revulsion of sentiment
in Georgia agaioet premeditated
rime, the tenor of which is more
dangerous than tbe outrages that it
fails to prevent. We need proven
tion more than the gratification of
brutal passion.
A Good Start.
Savannah New*. "
Gov. Northen made for himsself a
good record as an anti lynch law ex¬
ecutive. Gov. Atkinson starts out
well towatds acquiring a similar rep
utalion. His prompt action with re¬
gard to tbe Montlcello lynching
serves notice upon whomsoever it
may concern that the governor of
Georgia will uphold the law in so far
as it lies in bis power. The rewards
he has offered for proof to coo vict the
lynchers are liberal, and should pro
dace results It will be noted that
the governor does not ask for the
arrest of the lynchers by the inform¬
ers, but merely that a basis to work

Mrs. Hart’s maiden name was Jack-

when they went to Charleston. They
have one daughter, 9 years old. Mrs.
Hart is a handsome woman, with red¬
dish brown hair.
The leather trunk, over the contents
of which this action was brought, The was

including two spoons, relics of Presi¬
dent Jackson, a quantity of point lace
and the letters mentioned.
Soon after the trunk was stored the
Harts went to Charleston. From there
Mr. Hart wrote to Tiffany & Co. tor the
trunk, and they sent it to him Feb. 9,
1892. In April, 1809, Mrs. Hart demand¬

still had them. Mrs. Hart said that she
left her hnsband in April, 1893, because
he did not supeort her.
On cross examination a lawyer named
Ten Eyck, who appeared for the defend¬
ants, asked her:
"Your husband frustrated your first
attempt to leave Charleston with your
child, did he not?"
“He did," the witness replied.
“But the second time, April 18, 1893,,
yon got away safely?” child,”
"My hnsband gave me the an¬
swered Mrs. Hart hotly.
The lawyer wanted to go still further
into her relations with her husband, compel
but Justice Barrett refused to
the witness to answer.
Then Mr. Ten Eyck produced a clip¬
ping from a Charleston newspaper,
dated April 19, 1893, which referred to
her flight from Charleston. The wit¬
ness burst into tears, article and the judge read, re¬
fused to allow the to be
saying that he was not trying a divorce
case.
Several experts, including the employes value
of Tiffany, testified as to of
the oontent of the trunk. The deposi¬

read. He said that experts who had
examined the contents of the trank in
Charleston, had valued them at $437.75.
He said he liad seen his wife bnt once
since she had left him in April, 1893,
and that was when and sail she for attempted New York. to

Minneapolis, Nov. 15.—C. E. Rogers,
superintendent of the Pearl Cays Can¬

American colony at Blueflelds. He ae-'
dares that the charges of disrespect
shown the American flag are false and
were inspired by the olique of which
one of the leaders is the express Compaq

“The Americans down there got on
the wrong side of the fence,” says Mr.
Rogers. “Instead of supporting the
Nicaraguan government, which almost
humiliated itself to please the American
residents, they sided with the Jamaica
negroes, who were doing all the dirty
work against the government. The
Americans at Blueflelds are practically
a colony of persons who left their coun¬

titled to no consideration. The Nica¬

NOT THE
A Now Anecdote of General Grant’* Ca¬
reer.
[Special Correspondence.!
Cleveland, Nov. 15. —There are
many exceedingly Interesting points in
the career of General Grant that have
never been marie public, and it is only
wbon they come out from those who
knew him best that they are likely to be
understood by the public at large.
Tbe lost prominent appearance of
General Grant before the public was
daring his trip in company with Hon.
Roscoo Conkling through the west in
1880 In the Garfield campaign. For
some time there bad been considerable
donbt as to whether Conkling would
take the stump, but after tbe famous
trip of Garfield to New York he did so.
The first speech was made »t Warren,
the capital of the old Garfield congres¬
sional district. Conkling was at his
best, and the 10,000 people who turned
out to soo and bear him were delighted.
From Warren the special car that was
at the disposal of the Conkling party
was taken to Cleveland, where a second
speech was made. While at this place
Captain C. E. Henry, who was at that
time connected with the postofflee de¬
partment, took a large paokage of let¬
ters to General Grant whioh had been
forwarded to this point.
The general opened them one after
another and glanced hastily through
their contents. Finally he came to one
dated Denver, at the contents of which
he laughed immoderately. Captain Hen¬
ry, who had seen him many times and
under many circumstances, says that he
never saw him so muoh amused before.
Several times he tried to stop laughing,
and the fit would take him afresh.
Of course every one present was in¬
terested to know the cause of his amuse¬
ment. Finally he turned the letter over
to the captain and asked him to read it
out loud for the entertainment of those
present. The letter related an incident
somewhat as follows: It appears that
the name “U. S. Grant” appeared on
the roglste* of one of the lewSisg hotels
of Denver, and a drunken man and bul¬
ly from one of the mining districts be¬
came anxious to see the owner of the
name. He made considerable* noise
around the house and declared that he
was going to “lick old Grant.” The
name had been signed by Buck Grant,
the general’s son and namesake. the
Taking in the situation at once,
clerk of the hotel led the man to the
dining room door and pointed out a
muscular man who was eating dinner.
“That is General Grant, ” said the
clerk. ‘‘Wait till ho is through dinner,
and you can see him. ”
The would be fighter waited patient¬
ly near tbe door till the muscular diner*
had finished and sauntered out. Ap¬
proaching him, he struck out for a fight
The stranger did uot know what the
ijause ^eady of the attack was, bnt he was
for it, and he knocked down the
pugnacious man who was bo anxious to
“lick old Graflt. ” Recovering himself,
tbo man who was making the attack
came at the stranger again, only to be
very badly punished. The large stran¬
ger was about to throw the drunken
man down stairs when some one inter¬
fered and stopped the fight.
“I must find out the name of that
man who defended my name,” said the
general, still laughing. “I will send
him $100 if it is the last money I ever
have. Just think bnw badly I might
have been punished ii I had been there!”
And with this he went on opening his
letters. George A. Robertson.
