Jewett Makes an 'Incendiary' Speech to Negroes in Boston. Miss Lillian Clayton Jewett, a young white woman promi nent in society and the daugh ter of a wealthy and aristocratic family, addressed a meeting o colored people in St. Paul's Baptist church, corner of Cam aen ana iremont streets, on "Lynching in the South," and created a sensation by offering to go to Charleston, S. C, and bring to Boston the familv of the murdered postmaster, Ba ker, who was lynched some time ago, for the purpose of creating sentiment in the North in favor of the Southern negro. She said : "The people of the North must act : the colored people of Boston must act. There has been talk enough. All great movements for right and justice have had -their birth in the city oi Boston, and the movement which will put an end to the lynchings of the South must be- "bomethmg must be done to bring to our people a true real ization of conditions which ex ist in the States south of us.

You can do it ; you hould do it. And, if necessarj7 I will agree to go to Charleston myself and bring the destitute family here, so that the people of Boston can see for them selves what is meant when we speak of the of the South. outraged negroes "The time has come to act, aijd we must begin right here and now. The man who will ynch will lie. If he violates one law he will violate another. He is by no means a law-abid- mg citizen, and lie escapes tlie noose himself, because there is no one to see that he gets what he deserves. "If we admit that Sam Tlose did all that the lynchers say he did, how about Postmaster Ba ker, who was a good, law-abiding citizen. Yet he and his 'family of young children were shot down like dogs, and those of them that still live are maim ed for life, simply because those lynchers refused to take their mail from the hands of a black man. This is not law, it is not civilization, and it must and shall be stopped." Red Rot From The Gun Was the ball that hit G. B. Steadman of Newark, Mich., in the Civil War.

Up to the present time most of the gold has been found in the easily accessible districts near tne coasts, tnougn the na tives of the interior of Luzon, a region but little explored, traffic in tlie precious metal, Which they evidently obtain from some ot tlie inland streams. As yet placer deposits are the chie source of the metal, which has been worn by the rains from the mountain ranges and borne down by rivulets and creeks to their lower channels. In cer tain regions there is not a stream large or small, whose sands do not show the yellow trace of sold, while now and then na tives of the interior offer heavy nuggets for sale. The gold thus buried in the river sands and gravels-, undoubtedly had Its source in the mountain ranges, whose quartz veins await the halid and eye of the cunning miner, They may be rich ; they may be poor j only scientific study and explo ration can tell. The principal gold-vielding region of Luzon is the district of Mambulao." The metal has been found also in Mindanao. Mindora, Panay, Cebu, and the smaller islands of Samar, Cat- anduances, Sibuyan, Bohol, and Pauaon. One of the larger islands, Mindoro, gains its name from its yold deposits, it signifying mina de ora (gold mine) . The natives speak of places in its interior which are rich in gold. The same is the . .1 m . m case witn tlie interior of tne large island of Mindanao, where use in their ordinary buying and selling. Here are the Mi- samis placers, the richest in the archipel-ago their yield to thfi native, miners being about 150 ounces a month. Rich quartz veins are said to be known in this island, and there is one such vein in the small island of Panaon, lying north ot Min danao : but hitherto fegold has been mined principally in pla- cer oeds, and tnese not very rich as compared with those of California. Personally I know little about these gold gravels, as I have seen only some of their results. They are so widely distributed and are worked in so desultory a manner that their actual rich ness is largely a matter of guesswork. As regards the mother veins, 1 have made no search for them,, and I am quite sure that the Spaniards have not troubled themselves in this direction. They rest in virgin wealth, waiting in their pristine state the coming of the Ameri can mining 'prospector. They will have to be deeply hidden indeed if they escape his pene trating eyes.

A good story was told here a or 'two ago, apropos of the death of the late H. B Plant. The old gentleman entered one of the large offices of his roads one uay, ana as it was nis nrst vis it the forty or more clerks did not recognize in him the "boss' of the place. It wa a hot sum . .1 . i . mer aay, ana tne boys were having a good time generally in shirt sleeves, with their feet perched on the tops of the desks smoking cigarettes and crack ing jokes.. The old gentleman inquired of them if there was phone in the room. "Yes," was the reply. The conversa tion among the clerks continued and little notice was taken of the man. . He ventured to inquire where it was, and one Qi the clerks, pomting to ttye wall, said "inere sue hangs ao you exr pect us to bring it to you?" , Mr. plant walke4 slowly oyer to where it was and asked them how it wqrkec. This question he had to repeat, as the boys were to much eugagecLLh their good time to hear him. His second request brought forth the retilv from one of the fellows: "Haven't 'you got sense enough to turn the crank? The crank was turned the bell tingled and the, question came from the other end : V Who's there?" "H. B. Plant," was the re ply from the old gentleman, and as he said it down came the feet off the desks, out went tlie ci garettes and all found they had suddenly thought of some busi ness requiring their attention, one fellow veiling : "It wasn't me, Mr. Plant." After finishing the business le was transacting over the phone, Mr. Plant' turned to the employs and gave them a lecture the substance oi which was lie would overlook their misconduct this time, but in the future to treat every man as a gentleman until found out otherwise.

A remarkable freak of light- .i ning occurred here yesterday when a sudden shock restored to its old time vigor the left arm of Eli Forbes, which had been useless for thirteen years on ac count of rheumatism. While he was sitting at the window yesterday a thuhdershower came up and with it were two sharp flashes of lightning. With one of the tremendous crashes 'Mr. orbes felt a sharp pricking of t 1 . 1" 1 us nesh and tingling in nis bones and with a jerk his left arm shot violently forward from its cramped position. 1 h e shock was over in a flash and Mr. Forbes felt his left arm bristle with vitality and tingle with vigor.

Lewis, of Chica- go, is going to tear down tho great wall of China and use the material as paving stone, ho ias a big contract on hand. The main or outer wall was built 200 years before Christ, ' and runs from the sea along tho northern boundary of China for a distance of 1,500 miles. The inner wall branches . off from the arch of a circle 500 miles in circumference. The outer wall is built of huge pieces of uncut stone, faced through the most of its length with huge bricks. it is from lo to JO feet in height, , and 15 to 25 feet in width. Tho inner wall is almost twice tho leight and is almost the same width. Along the top of the inner wall runs for its entire ength a promenade 15 feet wide. The engineering diffi culties overcome and the great amount of labor spent in build ing the walls may be gathered rom the fact that they run up the side of the mountains, across rivers -ana everywhere ollow the boundary of the an cient Empire. Even to this day the savage Mongol tribes regard the great wall as the lmit of their pasture. The wo walls together if stretched ojut in a straight line, would reach from New York to Las Vegas, so that if they had been in place governor jtooseveit might have ridden his brpnehos all the distance from home to the Rough Riders' reunion without dismounting. Broken up into paving stones, the two walls would cover a roadbed 100 feet wide aud reaching from New JTork to San Francisco. Chicago Tribune.
