the burning of Abe Wilder, and, of
course, should not be; but this ia a
matter of no concern to the rape fiend.
If the militia stop the mob before
the beast is staked, the allies boost
themselves, and if it is not stopped
and the fiend is staked, that is a 'con-
clusion of the whole matter' except
the formal denunciation by the ally ed-
itor. Then this vast and expensive
telegraphic correspondence used in
caling out the sheriffs and the militia
is the merest rot, designed to deceive
the Northern philanthropist (?) and
the brute himself.
'The taxpayers will, after a while,
become weary of this militia expense,
and if the allies continue to give en-
couragement and hope to the rape
fiend, a few years at most will bring
on a bloody conflict between the mili-
tia and the best citizens of the State,
and the result will be the death of
many of the latter. This clash of re-
sounding arms may astonish the allies
of the brutes, but the surviving citi-
zens will not likely stop at such a con-
flict. but they will go to the root of
the evil, and some ally then occupy-
ing the gubernatorial chair may be
heard to exclaim 'Bt tu brute/ as
some enraged citizen plies deep to his
heart the gleaming dagger in revenge
for his lost wife or daughter.
"The charge by the allies that to
burn at the stake Is inhuman and bar-
barous is untrue, and I doubt if a hu-
mane man will make it. There is no
more inhumanity in burning the rape
fiend than there is in burning a snake,
for anything guilty of the inhuman
crime he commits has nothing human
in his make-up.
"In denouncing mob law the allies
commit another sin. That is, they
curse the memory of the poor, help-
less women who, in assault and death,
suffered terrors and pangs of which
hell Itself gives no parallel, and yet
these allies insist on giving the brute
all he wants—a trial by jury and a
public hanging."

HANNA ON THE STRIKERS.
Oh! why do they strike with a full
dinner pail
In the morn of prosperity's reign?
The ox is content with his fodder and
hay;
Then why should the miner com-
plain? ,
The ox must compete with his fellow
ox.
On the other side of the lea;
Put tariff protects the miner from
coal
That is dug beyond the sea.
And tariff protects his feet from shoes
And his back from pauper wool;
And why is he fool enough to strike.
When his dinner pail is full?
Oh, why do they strike when the times
are good
And there's plenty of work to be
done,
And the great mills grind their iron
grists
From the rise to the set of the sun?
Oh, why do they strike when their
money is "sound,"
And based on the standard of gold,
And the dollar is better than ever it

In prosperous nations of old?
And there are no trusts—no trusts—no
trusts—
No trusts—no trusts—not one!
Hurrah! hurrah! for the full dinner
pall
And the fuller Gatllng gun!
—Jamestown (Pa.) Democrat.
In a sermon preached by the Rev.
Oliver Huckler, of a fashionable Con-
gregational church in Baltimore, he
said:
"Christ was an imperialist. His
mission was one of conquest. He came
Into the world to conquer the cohorts
of darkness and to extend his fath-
er's kingdom into the uttermost corn-
ers of the land and sea. The Church
of Christ stands for expansion, and,
until the end of the world, will stand
for It."—Telegraphic dispatch.
This fellow doeen't recognize the
difference between Jesus Christ and
Teddy Roosevelt.
His idea of religion is some system
that bulges his private purse and fills
his alimentary canal.
Born without requisite nerve to be-
come to a fot-pad, he chose the career
of a sanctified grafter—a chigre to
suck the-rich man's blood.
And he sucks well: for "fashionable
Congregational churches" are plump
and Juicj.
He couldn't tell Christ's kingdom of
the brotherhood of man from a Ho-

Told by Pain
H you have pains you should look after
them quickly. Pain shows something is
wrong. The sharper the pain the more dan-
ger there is in delay. There are thousands
of women to-day who are bearing awful
pain almost continually, rather than tell a
physician about the shooting pains in their
lower abdomen, about the agony of falling
of the womb and the distress of leucorrhoea.
They let the months pass and their trouble
becomes harder to cure and more distressing.
But modest women can secure exemption
from the embarrassment of a private exami-
nation. When pain tells them of danger
they can cure themselves by the use of

Belen, Miss., March 9. 1900.
I have used one bottle of Win* of Oardni and one package of Tked ford's
Black-Draught. Before I began to take your medicines I had pains in my
back, hips, lower bowels and my arms. Sometimes I thought I would go
blind. My head ached and X was so weak I could hardly walk across the
floor. Now I can only feel a little of the pain in my side and 1 am going to
use your medicines until I getoured, for I believe they will certainly cure
me. I have been married twelve years and am the mother of seven children.
X thank you for your wonderful medicine and what It has done for me.

Those Observation Sleepers
RUN V,A "THE DENVER ROAD"
from Fort Worth to Colorado Springs every morning are among tbe hand-
somest equipment of the Pullman Company. The large Observation Par-
lor, with spacious windows and movable easy chairs, etc., affords tbe advan-
tages and comforts of a Private Car; while tbe table and service in tbe
Cafe Car in all respects equal the fare of the best l.otels and restaurants
at corespondlng prices. Special satisfaction is expressed by the ladies in
the commodious dressing rooms found in our Pullmans, and all our guests
appreciate the freedom from carving, superfluous decorations and stuffy
plushes, which is a distinctive and welcome feature of the most up-to-date
Pullman Sleepers—the kind we have two of each day, run througu without
change. Our Day Coaches are also of the latest design, elegant in their dig-
nified simplicity, with very comfortable high-back seats, the equal of any
similar equipment. No other line operates Cafe Cars from Texas, and no
other line runs through trains to Colorado (and our time is far and away
the shortest, too); no other line has Observation Sleepers to the Northwest,
no other line makes a specialty of Colorado Tourist travel. It is a fact,—
