I De Great Marster say ergin in our section, was naturally curious to see how, when their turn came, they would deal with the lynching evil. But . we are not satisfied with the showing. It is : far short of the hys terics and heroics played off on us when lynchings have happened in Georgia and the south. We want, and have the right , to demand, that the northern press and the people of Dela ware give us that long-waited object lesson of "how to cure the lynching habit!" They know how to do it, because they have been telling us for twenty years how unnecessary,' barbarous and peculiarly southern is the practice of lynching, raping and murdering negro brutes. Now that the crime with its horrors has come home to them and their people among whom there is no "lower class"' and no "negro-hating white trash" have acted In Illinois and in Delaware quite as some south ern people have done, we call upon them to produce their remedy for the crime-itself . and their sure preventive of the rage of the mob that ends in lynching! : , j At the time of the lynching, of Sam Hase at Newman, in this state, it was published that the railway, company sent out a special excursion train to carry curious people to see fhe burn ng of a human being by a. mob! The horror over that alleged incident of years ago has hardly abated in the north and Sam Hoee reappears in their editorials to this day. Yet The New York Herald reports that in Wilming ton the trolley lines ran "special cars" to carry people to the bonfire in which White was being roasted, that the road way was lined with the carriages of respectable citizens" eager to be in at the death,- and that "One pretty young so bad I done forgit all about my dram, an1 when I goes black an' axes Roxanna what in de name er Gawd was all dat trash bVi havh. fDem'n mv no' dead :i i 1.1 . c I ' J ' ) .

What more ? Why, across the full page oi lne Herald s account runs a black-letter line that reads : ' "Public Sentiment in Delaware Seems to Ap prove Lynching!" The Constitution has always de nounced lynching, has stood for legal procedure, and supported the govern ors in Bending state troops anywhere in the state to prevent the lawless yen- geance of mobs.

Roxanna, Bill came home last night and upbraided her for carrying roots in her pocket for i the purjke of con juring him.

I I The tffendiog husband averred that he had no recollection whatever of as- 1 1 saulting Roxanna, but he might have done it, since she had conjured him. He explained that the conjuring had been going on fori several months and that it had resulted in bodily weakness.

After watching for a few moments I put it down to be a school of porpoises, but on getting a closer view I discovered, instead of por poises, a great number of sharks tear ing through the water at a great rate io a northwestly direction, beaded toward the coast.
