Lynching. But Wrote Thrilling

niahed to Senatora.
Washington, Dec. ".—An ugly fight
against one of President Roosevelt’s
recent Southern appointments is going
on in the Senate. The contest is over
the confirmation of George Koester, a
young gold Democrat, and personal
ft-iend of Senator McDaurin, as Col
lector of Internal Revenue for the dis
trict of South Carolina. At the time
of Collector Koester's appointment it
was charged that he was an active
participant in a “lynching bee” in
South Carolina, and Collector Koester
not only admitted taking part in the
affair, but acknowledged writing a long
account of the occurrence for the news
paper he then represented. All the
circumstances were fully explained to
President Roosevelt and the latter af
ter hearing both sides of the story,
selected Mr. Koester for the office
which he is now filling.
The Republican organization In South
Carolina, under the leadership of for
mer Deputy Collector Deas, the negro
chairman of the Republican State Com
mittee, has arrived in Washington
armed with formal charges against
Collector Koester, and also numerous
copies of the newspaper containing
Koester's account of the affair* These
papers have been freely distributed
among the Republican senators and
especially among the members of the
Senate Finance Committee, who will
pass upon the nomination of
Collector Koester. The opponents
of the new collector are count
ing upon Senator Tillman to lend
a, hand in the fight, because Koester
is a personal appointment of Senator
MeLaurin, in addition to having on
various occasions attacked the politi
cal policies advanced by Senator Till
man in his newspaper. There are
numerous precedents in the Senate,
showing that editors have been defeat
ed for confirmation by reason of severe
editorial crjticisms upon senators.
Collector Koester’s appointment,
when made, was the political sensation
of the hour, and all of the harrowing
details of his connection with the
lynching and his personal explana
tions to President Roosevelt were pub
lished throughout the land. The Re
publican organization in South Caro
lina, having been practically ignored
by President Roosevelt for reasons he
can justify, the whole Koester matter
is to be revived and threshed over in
the Senate, if State Chairman Deas
and his followers realize their expec
tations.
CAPTURE OK DUTCH BED CROSS.
Dutch Members Get Hot Over Al
leged British Outrage.
The Hague, Dec. 7.—The confiscation
of the Dutch Red Cross outfit outside
of Pretoria and the imprisonment of
the staff on the Island of Ceylon was
again the subject of heated comment In
the Chamber here to-day, the members
denouncing the action of the British
as being contrary to the Geneva con
vention. The Foreign Minister, Mel
vin Van Lyndon, explained that the
Geneva' convention was only applicable
to the ajnbulances of belligerents, but
even their staffs could be made pris
oners if they violated neutrality. The
government, he added, had frequently
demanded that the Netherlanders be
released on parole, but Great Britain
is not obliged to release them
until after the close of the war.
CHATTANOOGA TURNED DOWN.
Hnilroart* Will Not Give Her Rates
Fixed on River Bnsia.
Chattanooga, Tenn., Dec. 7.—The
Southeastern Freight Association has
formally rejected the request of the
city of Chattanooga to extend full
recognition to Chattanooga as a river
Point and make Chattanooga rates from
Eastern cities on at least as favorable
basis as rates from the above cities to
the competing and similarly situated
city of Nashville.
The citizens of Chattanooga will at
once reopen the case in ’the Supreme
Court of the United States against the
various railroad lines entering here
from the east for discrimination in
freight rates. This case was decided
adversely to the city on a technicality,
but can be reopened.
TO RELEASE TRAIN ROBBER.
Desperadoes Flniined to I.ay In Walt
for Train.
Cheyenne, Wyo., Dec. 7.—The de
tails of a plot to hold up the convict
train last night and secure the re
lease of Bob Lee, the Wilcox train
robber, came to light to-day by the
discovery of a camp of desperate men
west of Laramie.
The plan was to lay in wait between
Laramie and Rawdins, hold up the
train, and make a stand against the
guards or any force sent against them.
The number of the desperadoes Is un
known.

Rev. Frederick Odenbach, 8. J., pro
fessor of physics In St. Ignatius Col

MANGLED BY THE WHEELS.
Sad Accident to Two Little Girls at
Jennings, Flo.
Valdosta, Ga., Dec. 7.—A terrible ac
cident happened to two little children
of Mr. and Mrs. John L. Powell, at
Jennings, Fla., yesterday. The mother
of the little ones was summoned to
this city to attend a sick daughter-in
law, and two of her children followed
her to the train. It seems that they
loitered about the depot after her train
pulled out, or else the nurse was so
careless as to leave them there alone.
At any rate, they were standing on the
track in the rear of a freight train
when the engine began to back. The
caboose dashed into the little girls and
knocked them down, one of them be
ing so badly mangled as to necessitate
the amputation of a limb close to the
thigh. The other child was badly in
jured, but may recover.
The mother had hardly reached this
city when a telegram came notifying
her of the accident, and she returned
at. once through the country. Medical
attention fjom this city, Jasper and
Jennings attended the little sufferers,
but there was no hope for the recovery
of the younger of them. The children
were 3 and 5 year x of age, respective
ly, and when the mother left she cau
tioned the nurse and even telegraphed
for her older daughter to come up from
Jasper and remain with them until she
could return, their father being de
tained at his store.
The high price of cotton Is causing
the farmers to turn loose the staple
very rapidly, and the receipts here for
the past three or four days have been
unusually heavy. The staple went to
21 cents to-day. The farmers, however,
are siill gloomy, as the high price came
after most of their crop had been mar
keted.
SUPPOSED RAPIST ARRESTED.
Snaplclona Looking Negro Held for
Sheriff of Wayne.
Valdosta, Ga., Dec. 7.—Another ne
gro was arrested here last night on
suspicion of being the rapist wanted
in Wayne county. He gave his name
as Isaac Donnegol, and admitted be
ing a fugitive, but said that he had
shot a negro on the new road from
Jesup to Folkston. He jumped from
the midnight train last night some
time before it reached the depot, and
was afterwards caught by the police
officers in a negro district. When
caught he had two pistols, a Winches
ter rifle and a pocketful of cartridges
in his possession, and was evidently
fixed for defense. The police officers
feel confident that he is the right ne
gro, and it is certain that he is from
the scene of the crime whether he is
the guilty man or not. The crime for
which he is wanted was committed
some distance from Jesup. After as
saulting a young lady, the fiend is said
to have seriously stabbed her grand
mother in his effort to get away.
Sheriff Lyons of Wayne, is expected
here on the next train to identify the
negro who is being held here.
A fire alarm was sounded at noon
to-day, the flames being discovered in
Dukes’ bay just south of the city. The
fire did no damage more than to burn
off the grass and underbrush over an
area of several hundred yards each
way. The firemen responded to the
alarm promptly, and in doing so, one
of the men, young Jolly, was thrown
from a truck and was run over by a
reel. His hand was so seriously mash
ed as to necessitate the amputation of
some of his fingers.
TO PROTECT THE PUBLIC.
Ilallrond Pnssenger Men to Get Af
ter Ticket Scalpers.
New York, Dec. 7.—The chairman of
the Railroad Passenger Associations In
the United States, comprising what Is
known as the Railroad Ticket Protec
tive Bureau, met at the rooms of the
Trunk Line Association in this city to
day. Considerable evidence was pro
duced, showing that a large number
of fraudulent tickets are in the hands
of innocent purchasers, and it was de
cided to inaugurate a vigorous and ag
gressive campaign to preyent the trav
eling public from being imposed on by
ticket scalpers or persons engaged in
fixing, altering or manipulating rail
road tickets or other forms of trans
portation.

An OlHcial Survey Held.
St. Johns, Newfoundland, Dec. 7.
An official survey of the steamer
Durango made this afternoon, shows
that her funnel and deck plates were
started and several parts of her ma

repair will occupy until late next
week.
Both the British steamer Sidra, Capt.
Atkinson, from Hamburg for New
York, which put in here yesterday, and
the Durango report several large ice
bergs off the coast along the trans-
Atlantic track. These are very dan
gerous to shipping plying to American
ports.
QUACK DENTISTS’ WILES.
W
How Souie “Dental Parlors” Do n
Dubious Business.
From the New York Post.
There are indications, according to
reputable practicing dentists, that the
business of the unscrupulous, Incompe
tent, quack dentists is not fo profitable
as it was four or five years ago. The
constant vigilance of the regular den
tal socilies. which are always ready
to detect and prosecute any Instances
of malpractice, combined with the fact
that the classes from which the “den
tal parlors” draw’ their patronage are
gradually learning their real character,
have driven several of these places
out of business, and few others are be
ing started.
The "advertising dentists” made their
appearance in this city twelve or fif
teen years ago, and their numbers have
greatly increased since then. It is not
generally known that one man often
owns three or four of these establish
ments, each having a different name
and not the slightest ostmsible con
nection with any of the others. One
man is credited with the proprietorship
of nearly twenty of them. The rea
sons for using more than one lit'e are
sometimes fairly obvious.
Until the state law prohibited them
from treating patients, dental students
did the actual operations In these
places. Now, it is said, the quacks
are more apt to employ older dentists,
who, presumably, have not succeeded
in their own practice, or they would
not take employment that keeps them
busy at comparatively small salaries
from 8 a. m. until 6 p. m., with some
night work and only every third Sun
day off. „ ,
Of the incompetence of some ot tnese
men dozens of stories are told. There
was one, for instance, w’ho by mistake
injected carbolic acid instead of co
caine into a woman’s gum. The acid
really did. of course, act temporarily
as an anaesthetic, and the patient felt
no pain whatever at the moment The
dentist discovered his error at once,
said, “Excuse me a moment,” stepped
out of the room, and took down his
hat from the nail, walked down to the
street, and has not been heard from
since. Another dentist of the same class
plugged the “root canal of a tooth
with copper wire, which rusted and
caused necrosis down into the jaw
bone.
Recently a dentist, in practice by
himself, had as a patient a working
woman, one of whose teeth was topped
with a large gold crown. “Who put
that on?” he asked, and was told it
was done at one of the dental parlors.
“Why, it’s loose,” said the doctor,
touching it with his finger. “Oh, no,”
said the woman, “that’s anew way
they have of doing it. It’s much bet
ter not to have a crown cemented on
tight.” The tooth under the cap
(which could be lifted off) was in a dis
eased condition, and, rather than take
the time and trouble to treat it before
putting on the crown, the "quack” had
left the gold loose, so as to give drain
age and avoid painful pressure on the
tissues beneath.
Ignoring entirely the question of In
competence, which it is perhaps un
just to impute to so large a body of
men. the business of many of the “den
tal parlors" is illegitimate for other
reasons as well. Every dentist re
ceives from time to time curious and
impossible requests in regard to the
teeth of new patients. It Is not un
common for a person with bad teeth to
ask that all of them, sound and un
sound alike, be capped evenly with
gold. Now a reputable dentist will
not grant such a request, unless he
considers it for the welfare of the
teeth. But the quack likes nothing
better. Asa flagrant example of this,
an entirely toothless woman asked to
have a full set of teeth made on a
bridge. This was physically impossi
ble, as even a layman could see, with
out a tooth or even a root to which to
attach the bridge; But a firm in this
city promised to execute the order.
Slie was to pay $l5O, but, as they asked
an additional deposit at every sitting,
and kept the woman coming back for
“fittings" and "impressions,” they got
nearly the whole of that amount with
out delivering the bridge. At last her
son discovered the state of affairs, told
the dentist frankly what he thought
of him, and was forcibly put out of
the office. The matter ended In a law
suit. Under the decision none of the
money was refunded, but the dentist
made two good plates (worth, perhaps,
SSO) for the toothless jaws.
A man once ordered a bridge for
which he was to pay SBO. He made
deposits from time to time aggregat
ing $lO, and called at the office time
and time again to bite Into lumps of
wax and let the operator make casts
of the inside of his mouth. At last
the bridge was ready, at least so the
company said. It did not fit, and was
edch a bad piece of work generally
that he refused to take It. and thus
forfeited his deposit. Seeing the sign
of another, nicer looking dental par
lor. he went there, told of how he had
been swindled, and was told sympathet
ically that he had come to the right
place, where he could get a better
bridge for much less money. After
the same preliminaries, postponements
und deposits, the dentist handed him
the same old bridge. As his mouth
bad not altered In size, it fitted no bet
ter than before, and he forfeited his
lecond deposit. The secret was, at
course, that the two establishments
were owned by the same man.
Most "dental parlors” are luxurious
ly furnished. The first functionary met
by the prospective patient Is known
us the “contractor.” Incidentally, he
the highest pay. It Is his duty to

examine the mouth, see whit needs to
be done, and estimate on the tost.
“You need a plate in your upper jaw,”
he says, perhaps. “You have them
from $5 up. haven't you?” ventures the
patient. “Well,” says the contractor,
“we can make you one for $5, but I
wouldn’t recommend it. Your mouth
won’t stand cheap rubber. You should
have the imported black rubber. And
then you want the Gonyonyan Auction
—it will be $3 more.” Black rubber is
made in this country, and is cheaper
than the red. Moreover, there is no
”uch thing as a Gonyonyan suction, but
the patient does not known this. The
bill goes up and up. and finally the op
erating dentist finds out that the “con
tractor” made a mistake and omitted
or overlooked something that will add
a few dollars more.
Minor tricks of the trade are almost
Enumerable. Amalgams in different
colored bottles are described as "gold’’
or “plantinum,’’ and charged extra;
women are brought in to pay large
bills and thank the dentists when cus
tomers are hesitating or haggling over
prices; and the uniformed porters in
the street. It is said, have a signal so
that angry or dissatisfied customers
can be hustled aside when now ones
come in. As the proprietors of one of
these shops once expressed the situa
tion, “There’s a sucker arriving in
New York every minute.”
KING EDWARD’S TITLE.
History and Explanation of Its N'n
merons Styles for tlie British
Sovereign.
From the Pall Mall Gazette.
The King’s title, as brought up to
date, reads a good deal more euphoni
ously in the vernacular than “in the
Latin tongue." “Terrarum transmari
narum quae in ditione sunt Britanni
ca” is Latin, no doubt; but that is
about all that can be said for it.
The imperial character of English
royalty has never, of course, been so
roundly asserted as now it is. The
times have been. Indeed, when Imper
ialism by no means commended Itself
to an English Edward, statesman as
well as King. In 1330 it was emphatic
ally declared; “Quod regnum Angliae
ab omni subjectlone Imperial sit liber
rlraum.” And, very nearly a century
later, a formal renunciation of imper
ial supremacy was actually required of
a Holy Roman Emperor before he was
allowed to set foot on English soil.
But the imperial idea is as old as
Henry VIII., in whose time "empire”
and “imperial crown” are words In
frequent use. Queen Eliza at her coro
nation was styled “Empress from the
Orcade Isles to the Mountains Pyre
ne.” And "Empress” she is styled on
Camden's title page.
"Of the United Kingdom of Great
Britain and Ireland” is a style some
thing more than a century old. On
Jan. 1, 1801, It took the pllce of “Great
Britain, France, and Ireland." So was
renounced —and not before it was time
—that title of "King of France” which
English sovereigns had borne from the
forty-third year of Edward 111., or for
432 years.
One of the wholesome results of this
renunciation was the employment
thenceforward of English, Instead of
French, in the foreign official corre
spondence of an English Government.
A “language of diplomacy' 1 of our own
has abundantly approved its usefulness
since.
Of Kings of England, so styled, the
first was Canute. The Conqueror was

"Rex Anglorum.” So was Richard 1.,
on his seal, though he figures as “Rex
Angliae” in his charters. His successor.
John, was the final innovator, and
signed, sealed, and delivered as "King
of England.”
His Holiness Leo X., no doubt, con
ferred the t-’itle of "Defender of the
Faith” on Henry VIII. as a mark of
the political approval of the royal
author’s fulmlnation against Luther.
The Bull is to be read In fac simile,
in the “Foedera” of the useful Rymer.
But that “the right of that title was
fixed in the Crown long before the
Pope’s pretended donation,” and that
the seventh Henry bore it, was proved
to the satisfaction of Christopher
Wren, Dean of Windsor and Register
of the Order of the Garter from 1635 to
1685, by the evidence of the official re
gister of the order itself.
"Great Britain” was the emendation
of Elizabeth, who had a prophetic eye
to future developments. The British
Solomon naturally saw the force of
the new style. He adopted It imme
diately. On Oct. 23. 1603. Lord Cran
bourne wrote to Mr. Winwood from
Whitehall, inclosing copy of “procla
mation published this day of his
Majesty changing his title and taking
upon him the name and style of King
of Great Britain, France, and Ireland,
by which he henceforth desires to be
acknowledged, both at home and
abroad, and that his former titles shall
be extinct.” A plain and businesisike
statement, not unsuggesttve if the
modern deed-poll.
Since the King of England ceased to
be Elector of Hanover, one minor title
has disappeared which used to puzzle
the liege in the street a good deal. It
would be set forth, in initial form, as
S. R. I. A. T. The initials stood for
Sacri Romani imperii Arohi-Thesnurus
—Arch Treasurer of the Holy Roman
Empire, in faot.
The liege in the street could hardly
be expected to know that the arch
treasurership in question was an office
which had been settled upon the Elec
tors of Htuiover by reason of their de
scent from Frederick, Elector Palatine.
So it was, however.
The imperial addition t o the title of
an English soverign is just a quarter of
a century old. In 1876 Mr. Disraeli
might have quoted to his soverign a
line from a poet whom he did not much
affect perhaps:
Empress, the way is ready, and not
long.
And indeed the time was ripe for “R.
et I.”
