THE guarded reports from Washington concerning the treasonable conspiracy of certain Americans to hamper the government's operations in the Philippines indicate that some aunties have been carried by their enthusiastic admiration for Aguinaldo to the point where their precious hides are in danger,and in the absence of fuller details those people who jump at conclusions will assume that those eminent oues who were accused Beveral months ago of putting up money for the expenses of Agoncillo and associates at Washington have gone to the further extent of Becretly encouraging and aiding the Philippine insurgents.

IN accordance with the general instructions of this administration to United States consuls to report everything that may be of value to our people, our consul at Coburg, Germany, writes the following description of the preparation of potato bread, with which many Germans feed their horses when subjected to unusually hard and continuous work, claiming that it adds to their strength and endurance: "The potatoes are stewed till soft, then mashed thoroughly and an equal quantity of cornmeal added, mixing the whole into a thick paste, adding a little salt. The paste is divided into four pound loaves and baked till thoroughly done. When cold they are fed to horses doing heavy work, at the rate of four loaves a day, one in the morning, one at noon, one about four o'clock and one at night, giving with the last one about ten pounds of poor hay." uONE

barrier that

ONLY

helped to hold

back the happiness that ought to sweep over our land like an advancing flood, is found in modern literature," writes the Rev. Newell Dwight Hillis, D. D., of "The Secrets oj a Happy Life," in the May Ladles' Home Journal. "Man's mental mood must needs reflect the books and philosophy he reads. If former generations were chappy in their garrets it was because their favorite authors were optimists, who saw life's good, indeed, yet also

Baw that evil, in its heart, was also good. The great authors, from Homer and Paul down to Shakespeare, have been the children of exultant joy as well as genius all wero large natured, sweet, wholesome, healthy and happy. The giants are optimists because they are conscious of enormous reserves and are equal to any emergency but weakness 1B pessimistic because it recognizes its scant resources. Indeed, pessimism may be defined aa mediocrity, confeEsing itself unequal to its task, and exalting its confession into the dignity of a cult and creed."

amusement haB been caused in

Washington by the cabled news that prominent European editors were seriously discussing the probability of our abandonment of the Philippines. These men do not know the American character even a little bit. President McKinley and his cabinet have no more idea of abandoning the Philippines than they have of abandoning Hawaii or Porto Rico. And, what is more to the point, they are perfectly well satisfied with the progress that has been made by Gen. Otis towards getting possession of the Philippines. They know that the origin of the numerous stories about the insurmountable difficulties before us in the Philippines, which are being published in this country and Europe, as well as the telegrams sent to the Philippines to create dissatisfaction among the volunteers, can be traced to politics—very dirty politics too that they are being spread by Democrats and other anti-expansionists, with the hope that a sentiment can be created among the voters that will be injurious to the administration in the next year's campaign. No political party can make votes by belittling the American flag and power: hence the stories cauBe no uneasiness to the administration.

IT is an interesting coincidence, made prominent by the announcement that Speaker Reed would retire from congress to practice law in New York City, that seven [of the thirty-two speakers the house has had—Reed, Oarliale, Randall, Blaine, Colfax, Stevenson and Macon—served three terms each in that exalted position. It is "ted also in this connection that only *ker, James E. Polk, ever be­

came president. So far as the states are concerned, the speakership honors have been very equally divided. Oaly fourteen states have had speakers, and three of those, Kentucky, Virginia and Massachusetts, have each furnished four, while Pennsylvania and Indiana have each had three. The only Bpeaker who served longer than three terms was Henry Clay, who had a fraction more than five termB to his credit. Only four speakers have been from the west and three of them were from a single state—Indiana. The talk about the probable successor to Mr. Reed is as yet largely speculative. No party ever had a larger array of capable men available for the honor than the Republicans of the next house will have, and while there may be good natured rivalry between individuals as well as sections, every Republican will have the satisfaction of knowing that a good speaker is bound to be chosen. While it is understood that Representatives Grosvenor, of Ohio Hopkins, and possibly Cannon, of Illinois Henderson, of Iowa Dalzell, of Pennsylvania Mercer, of Nebraska Moody, at Massachusetts, and Sherman and Payne, of New York, will be candidates, the only avowed candidate who has been to Washington since the announcement of Mr. Reed's retirement, is Mr. Payne, of New York, who succeeded the late Representative Dingley as chairman of the wayB and means committee and floor leader of the Republicans.

Sam Hose, Murderer and Ravisher, Meets a Horrible Death.

Fire.

After Death His Body Cut to pieces For Souvenirs—Ex-Governor Atkinson Appeals For Law and Order.

Newman, Ga., April 24.—Sam Hose, the murderer of Alfred Granford and the ravislier of his wife, was burned at the stake two miles from here yesterday afternoon in the presence of 2,500 people.

Hose has been on the farm of the Jones brothers, between Macon aud Columbus, since the day after he committed his horrible crime. His mother is employed on the farm, and to her little cabin he fled as a safe refuge. She fed him and cared for him. Saturday morning one of the Jones boys mot Hose aud, as he was talking to him, noticed that his "ginger" face was ebony black, but just below the collar of his shirt the copper color was discernible. Convinced that the negro had blackened his face to escape detection, Jones became convinced that he wa° the negro for whom the authorities, assisted by bloodhounds, had been scouring the country for 10 days, and they determined to arrest him.

Yesterday morning they started from Macon ou a Georgia Central train with the negro for Altanfa. At Griffin, a station beyond t-liis place, some one recognized the negro and sent word here that Hose was ou rlie train bound for Atlanta. When the train arrived here the Jones brothers were induced to turn the negro over to Sheriff Brown of Campbell county, and he was marched to jail at the head of a yelliug crowd of 500 people.

After the prisoner had been turned over to Seeriff Brown that individual was induced to surrender him to the mob, who marched 'mm through town to the public square. Here they were met ity former Governor Atkinson, who pleaded with them to let the law take

its course. His words were listened to in silence. When he had finished a shout went up: "Think ot' his crime!" and the mob continued its way until it reached a suitable place, a mile and a half out of town.,

A little to the side of ho road was a strong pine.tree. Up to thi.s the negro was marched, his back placed to the tree. Here for the first time he was allowed to talk. He said: "I am Sam Hose. I killed Alfred Crauford, but I was paid to do it. Lige Strickland, the negro preacher at Palmetto, gave me $12 to kill him. I did not outrage Mrs. Crauford. Somebody else did that. I can identify them. Give me time for that."

The mob would hear no more. The clothes were torn from the wretch in an instant. A heavy chain was produced and wound around the body of the terrified negro, clasped by a new lock which dangled at Hose's neck.

Instantly a hand grasping a" kuife shot out aud one of the negro's ears dropped into a hand ready to receive it. Hose plead pitifully for mercy and alsc begged his tormentors to let him die. His cries went unheeded. The,second ear went the way of the other. Hardly had he been deprived of his organs ol hearing before his fingers, one by one, were taken from his hand and passed among the members of the yelliug and now thoroughly maddened crowd. The shocking negro was quickly deprived ol other port-ious of his anati my and the words: "Come on with the oil" brought a huge can of kerosene to whore the negro, his body covered with blood, was striving and tugging at his chains. The can was lifted over the negro's head and its contents poured over him.

By this time a good supply of firewood had been placed about the wretch's feet. This was saturated and a match applied. As the flame shot upward aud licked the negro's legs he shrieked once and began tugging at his chains. As the flames crept higher aud the smoke entered his eyes and mouth Hose put the stumps of his hauds to tin tree back of him aud with a terrific plunge forward of his body severed tin upper portion of the chains which bouud him to the tree. His body, held to the tree only as fai as the thighs, lunged forward, thus -escaping the flames which roared and crackled about his feet. One of the men nearest the burning negro quickly ran up and pushing him back, said: "Get back into the fire, there," and quickly coupled the disjointed llhks ol

pieces of the firewood as had not burned, was carried away as souvenirs. The negro's heart was cut in several pieces as was also his liver. Those unable to obtain the ghastly relios direct paid their more fortunate possessors extravagant sums for them. Small pieces of bone went for 25 cents and a bit of the liver crisply cooked sold for 10 cents.

ADMIRAL DEWEY

Interviewed on the Coghlan Incident. Letter of Congratulations. New York, April 27.—A copyright cable to The Evening World from Manila, April 26, says: "Admiral Dewoy was seen today by The World's correspondent on the Captain Coghlan incident. "The admiral is still unacquainted with the details of the famous speech, but he declared that his relations with Captain Coghlan are most cordial. "He received a cablegram from the captaiu of the Raleigh when that warship reached Algiers congratulating the admiral on his promotion. "Admiral Dewey is certain that Coghlan could not have said anything calculated to place the admiral iu a false position. "He showed The World correspondent a letter from Admiral von Diedrichs of the German navy, congratulating him on his 'deserved promotion,' and also his letter in reply, which closed with the words 'All our differences were of newspaper manufacture.' "Admiral Dewey also says he is on the most friendly terms with Prince Henry of Prussia, who succeeded Admiral von Diedrichs as commander-in-chief of the German fleet in Chinese waters."

LYNCHING DENOUNCED

Strong Words of Dr. Vance of Nashville. Atlanta, April 27.—At the international Sunday.school meeting last night reference was made to the Newman affair and it was cheered. Dr. "Vance of Nashville, who spoke for the south in response to the welcoming address, said on this subject "As I stand here tonight, a southerner, ipeakitig for my section/and addressing an audience from all sections, there is Due foul blot upon the fair fame of the south, at the bare mention of which the heart turns sick aud the cheek is crimsoned with shame. I want to lift my voice tonight in loud and long iudignant protest against the awful horror of mob violence, which the other day reaohed the climax of its madness and infamy in a deed as black and brutal and barbarous as cau be found in all the annals of humau crime. "I have a right to speak on this subject and I propose to be heard. The time has come for every lover of the south to set the might of an angered and resolute manhood against the shame and peril of the lynch demon. These people whose fiendish glee taunts the victims as his flesh crackled iu the flames do not represent the south. They slander the south. I have not a syllable: of apology for the sickening crime they meant to avenge. But it is high time we were learning that lawlessness is no remedy for crime."

DUEL WITH PITCHFORKS

Conrad Scliaefer and Benjamin Love Fight a Terrible Battle. O'Fallon, Ills., April 27. Conrad Schaefer, aged 50 years, and Benjamin Love, aged 18, both employed on the farm of Henry Bertram near here, fought a duel with pitchforks and Schaefer was killed.

DRIVING THE ENEMY

General Lawton Is Now Taking a Turn at the Filipinos

ADMIRAL KAUTZ'S LETTER

It Was Private, but Its Publication Caused Consternation Among the Washington Officials—Dewey Interviewed on the Coughlan Incident.

Yellow Fever Reported at Bahia.

Washington, April 27.—The following cablegram has been received at the war department from General Otis: "Lawton at Nozagaray and Angat, his two columns united have driven enemy to north and west. Slight casualties, names not reported. Only, means communication couriers. "MacArthur has taken portion of Calumpit, south of river. Movement attended with difficulties on aocount of jungle, heat and strong intrenchments. His casualties Tuesday three killed, 11 wounded. Developments thus far satisfactory."

CREATED SURPRISE

Admiral Kautz Writes a Letter That Worries Washing-ton Officials. Washington, April 27.—The publication of Admiral Kautz's letter to his cousin in Cincinnati, referring to his position at Samoa as being "plain boss, a position the German consul held until my arrival," and the fact that he was not on good terms with German consul and German residents, caused absolute consternation at the navy and state departments at first reading, but there was soon exhibited a disposition to minus the affair because it was clearly apparent that the letter was nothing but a strictly private one passing between members of the family. Nevertheless, coming as it does, close upon Captain Coghlan's indiscretion and following the publication of Judge Chambers' letter to his brother, criticising the Germans in Samoa, the opinion was held that Admiral Kautz's letter oould not have other than a harmful effect upon the relations between the United States and Germany.

The letter was brought to the attention of the president aud some sort of a reminder may be sent to the offieer to be more careful in his correspondence. No orders have beeu issued to the Philadelphia to leave Samoa as the admiral says, so it is probable that he made the statement iu the belief that he could adjust the differences between the factions in Samoa within that time.

Iu official German quarters the letter was not treated very seriously and there was no indication that the German authorities would take cognizance of it. The spirit of fun in the letter appealed to some of the diplomatic officials who laughed heartily over Kautz's description of the young king's makeup and this amusing feature largely offset any irritation which might havo been felt over the criticism contained in the letter. The impression prevailed, however, that the navy department probably would deal with the indiscretion in such a way as it deserved.

NO CABLE FROM OTIS

Officials Disappointed In Not Hearing From the General Yesterday. Washington, April 27.—Secretary Alger said last night that the war department received no dispatches from General Otis yesterday as to doings in the Philippines. The department's information consisted wholly of press dispatches. There was some disappointment that General Otis had not cabled.

Officials of the department did not care to discuss the situation in the absence of official dispatches, but the feeling seemed to be that the American forces were meeting more resistance than anticipated.

Secretary Alger said there had been no change in the programme not to call for the 35,000 volunteers authorized by the act of Marcli 2.

COURT OF INQUIRY

It Is Said the Report Will Sustain the Administration. Washington, April 27.—The Wade court of inquiry continued the preparation of its report yesterday and when adjournment was had comparatively little work on it remained to be done. The different members of the court have made seperate investigations of the testimony and they were yesterday engaged in comparing notes. They find that about 200 witnesses were examined during the investigation. The testimony covers 5,000 pages of typewritten matter. Tiie report, therefore, will be ©f considerable length. There has been no recent change in the conclusion of the members of the court. The report will unanimously sustain the administration.

Yellow Fever at Bahia.

Washington, April 27.—The appearance of yellow fever at Ualila, Brazil, is announced in a dispatch to the state department from United States Consul Furniss at that place.

Wages Increased 50 Cents a Day. Denver,- April 27.—On Monday next the wages of carpenters in Denver will be increased 50 cents a day, making the minimum day's wages $8. About 600 men are affected.
