In the Drake murder case at Covington the jury failed to agree and a new trial will be necessary. During the first half of 1903 there has been 45 lynchings in the United States, and of this number 39 were negroes. John F. Judy has sold his newspaper the Warren Review, to Senator Goodwine of Warren county, who will steer its editorial helm for the present. "The lowa idea” on the tariff was designed to satisfy those republicans who demand reform, but it has produced no consternation among the "captains of industry” so far as observed. Delphi will have no street carnival this year. The business men did not take kindly to the project again and the promotors have abandonded it. Street carnivals are fast becoming a thing of the past in Indiana. It is proclaimed, as usual, that Kansas farmers are offering $2.50 a day and board for harvest hands. The harvest will be over, long before the formal opening of the fall political campaign. For almost eleven months in the year Kansas farmers do all their own work. —Ex.
The Obicago Tribane each year tabulates the cost of Fourth of July celebrations in deaths, injur* iea, fires, eto. The number of casualties this year exceeded those of any previous year, there beiDg 52 deaths, recorded up to Monday, 3,665 injuries, and $400,625 fire loss. Of the causes of injuries, fireworks are responsiblejfor 1,170; sky rockets, 206; cannon, 319; firearms, 562; toy pistols, 559; gunpowder, 768, and runaways, 81.
Senator Allison was relied on to write a tariff resolution for the lowa Republican Convention that would keep the “regulars” and the Cumminsitee from getting into each other’s hair. It wasn’t such a hard task, although. All the Senator had to do was to acknowledge the plain proposition that the tariff ought be revised; that duties which were too low should be raised and duties which were too high should be reduoed; and then leave out every thing about the date of revision. A good many people can be fooled by such an easy shuffle, but not all of them all the time. Mr. Linooln left some plain but telling phraseology behind him.—Cincinnati Enquirer.
Down at Evansville where the race riot occurred last week, the republican politicians have catered to the colored and whiskey vote and have imported colored people by the score from the southern states in order to continue the republican party in power. The negro and the whiskey vote has been a potent factor in politics in that city and county for years, and the decent people of all parties are becoming tired of this domination. Evansville has 900 saloons, several of the more notorious being run by negroes; the license fee in the city is but $75, and such a thing as closing the doors of drinking places on Bunday or any
other time when they are required by statute to keep closed, has not been thought of. No attempt to enforce the laws against the saloon-keeper has been made* for years. With such a state of affairs it is not to be wondered that a class of people have grown up there who have no respect for anything and the laws of the state in particular. In fact, it would be more surprising if the conditions were otherwise. Why, the republican judge of the county, Judge Rasch, is a confessed bribe-taker in selling appointments under him, and it is not surprising that Evansville and Vanderburgh county has come in for the worst raking from the press of tbe whole country that was ever given a community in Indiana.
Dispatches received from Ellisworth county, Kan., state that the carload of harvest hands sent there from New York city and a number of the leading colleges of the East find the work before them anything but a pleasant summer outting. Thirty-one of the forty are college students with untanned skin and tender hands. The others have been clerking in stores all their lives. When the new arrivals were told that the eighthour day did not apply to the harvest fields and that the farmers were not looking for social lions, their hearts grew heavy and sad. They will have to work,, however, for they are without money. Tbe college boys were told the farmers’ day begins at 4 a. m., and ends when it is no longer possible to drive the big machine, about 8 in the evening. There is an hour for dinner, another for supper and lunch,- and fourteen hours of the hardest kipd of tQil, under a blazing sun. The harvesters must get up at 3:30 in the morning. He cannot get to bed before 9 o’clock in the evening. He gets five meals a day, breakfast at 3:45, lunch at 9, dinner at 12, supper at 5, and another lunch before he goes to bed. Some of the students telegraphed their friends in East that the business of harvesting wheat in Kansas is anything but a picnic.
EX-MAYOR McGINLEY ON RACE RIOTS.
Indianapolis Sentinel: Ex-Mayor F. E. D, McGinley of Lafayette was seven times Mayor of that city and who is known to fame as the originator of the first Sunday newspaper published in the United States, was at the governor’s office yesterday. Mr. McGinley was associated with Horace Greeley in New York journalism in his early days. He said concerning the negro situation: “I regard myself as a friend of the negro, but I must say 1 have to admit that the negro is bringing much of his present trouble on himself. We have no race war outbreaks as yet in Lafayette, but I can’t predict how long a peaceful condition will exist. I don’t want to take a gloomy view of things, but I must say frankly that the arrogance of the negro of the present day is bound to lead to trouble, no matter what steps are taken to ward it off. The troublesome negroes in the cities and towns of this state will cause great suffering and wrong to the inoffensive people of their own blood. I was glad to see in The Sentinel that some of the better class of negroes here are about to take steps to drive out or suppress the disorderly element. The sooner they do this the better, if they desire to avert outbreaks similar to that at Evansville. Unscrupulous white men here and elsewhere who cater to the worst element of the negroes for political purposes are in my opinion as guilty as the “negro rowdies who commit crimes.”
The Lady With Pink Teeth.
The newest “turn” in Parisian music halls will shortly be the appearance of a lady with pink teeth. She is a native of Canton, but bora of French parents. Her teeth, which are perfect, are of a semitransparent substance resembling pale colored coral. A dentist who has examined them says that they will ne*W decay. They are hard as diamonds and the latter gems are the only material with which a mart: can be made on their surface.—Exchange. For Exchange: Lumber for a good draft horse; also for cordwood.

DEATH NOT FAR AWAY
Says Dr. Mazzoni Wtym Asked Concerning Pop# Leo Xlll’s Chances of Life. s .] POPE’S REXAM TO HU SECRETARY Expects Belief from Hie Cheet Trouble "inn Few Days”—Story of the Day at tbe Vatican. London, July 16.—A .dispatch from Rome timed 635 a. m. says the pope passed a very restless night and bis condition this morning Is considerably worse. Borne, July 16.—One of the doctors In attendance on the pontiff gave the Associated Press correspondent a graphic word picture of Pope Leo as he appears today. That slnile which lighted op tbe pontiff's face, even in extreme age, has disappeared, probably forever. The skin is drawn tightly over the bony frame-work of his face, leaving the once bright eyes staring dimly from the deeply sunken sockets. A grayish pallor overspreads his countenance, but the most noticeable ravage wrought by his present disease Is the dropping of the lower Jaw, which has made the pope’s features take on the fixed rigidity of death. Kept to Almost Absolut* Soelustee. Throughout the day the precincts of the Vatican were comparatively quiet, and the immediate vicinity of the sick room showed none of the evidences of agitation and alarm so apparent Tuesday. In marked contrast to previous days the patient was kept in almost absolute seclusion, only one person besides the physicians in immediate attendance gaining admission. This one waa Mocslgnor Plfferi, the pope’s confessor. Others came to the ante-cham-ber, including Cardinals Satolli and Serafino Vannutelli, but they did not press for admission to the sick room, being aware of the doctor’s earnest wish to afford tbe august patient every opportunity of avoiding exertion end mental effort Quito BmlloM la tho Haialif. During the day the pope took a slight amountof nourishment Through the morning he was quite restless, shifting uneasily on his bed and complaining of being unable to secure an easy position. Later he becamedrowsy, and during the afternoon had some sleep.
POPE BAS NOT GIVEN UP HOPE
Thinks the Trouble In Bis Cheet Will “Pass Off In n Faw Days.” In the evening his holiness complained of a Blight uneasiness in the chest, but that he has not yet completely given up hope was indicated by his remark that be expected the oppression of his chest to “pass off in a few days,” which he made to Secretary Angeli. During the day the pope drank a few drop* of the healing waters from the shrine at Lourdes, several bottles of which were sent to the Vatican by the French bishop in whose see Lourdes is situated. ▲ local paper gravely announces that from the moment Pope Leo swallowed the water an Improvement in his condition became apparent x • , n The doctors are well nigh exhausted with their unceasing cares. Dr. Lapponi, in particular, spends his entire nights as well as days in the sick room. Just before midnight his wife, wishing to see him, went to the Vatican. She was taken to a corridor near the sick room, where she saw her husband for a few minutes. An important case now before the British consular court in Rome requires the presence of Dr. Lapponi, but this is impossible because of the pope’s condition. When Dr. Mazzoni was asked. “Ia the end Imminent?” he answered: “It cannot be called so.” “Then is it near?” was asked. To this Dr. Mazzoni replied: “In order not to make a mistake let us say it is not far distant.” During the day the pope waß delirious, reciting Latin verses and crying out in fear. At 4 p. m. this delirium passed away.
MAZZONI SIGNS A HATE HINT Give* the Suet Condition of HU DUUaloUbed Pattest aa Ha Saaa the Same. Borne, July 16. —Dr. Mazzoni, In reply to the question, “Can the pope recover?’ gave the Associated Press correspondent the following signed statement: “At the present moment the disease of his holiness has lost its character of absolute gravity which It had at Its acute period. It might be considered to have entered the period of 4 possible solution. ./This might occur in a man of strong fiber and young, but it is impossible to entertain such a hope in the case of rtaan In his 94th year. With him the physical energy absolutely indispensable for recovery Is lacking. % “Pope Leo's organism la perfect, and as such maintains Itself after nine-ty-three years of never-interrupted work, but his motor force Is no longer sufficient for the complex functions essential to life. In other words, the ninety-three years of Pope Lee XIII bring him into that category of extraordinary longevity when life lsdestined to flicker ont independent of* the action of any pathological complication. The only service that science and affection can render is that of struggling to have this precious existence preserved to us as long as possible.”
