Mercer, Penn., May 7. While being
taken from the Mercer county court
house back to Jail last evening by Dep
uty sheriffs, Mrs. Helen Boyle, was at
tacked by a mob of perhaps 1.000 per
sons, mostly women, and it was only
by great efforts on the part of deputy ! sheriff s, business men and several I ministers that the women were prevented from doing great bodily injury
to the woman who is charged with hav
ing kidnaped . Willie Whltla, and who was placed on trial here yesterday
afternoon. Mob Assembled. James H. Boyle, her alleged hus
band, had been convicted of kidnaping earlier in the day, and he was being
taken from the courthouse to jail with his wife when the demonstration oc-
- curred. vri,....;, ." : rt L ,
The mob had been gathered for some
hours in front of the old schoolhouse,
which is doing duty as a courthouse,
and when the woman appeared in the custody of Deputy Sheriff Stuart a rush was made for her, principally by the women. "There she Is! Let's hang her! We don't need any Jury!" screamed a big woman who seemed a leader. - ' Preacher Defended Her. , "Look out! Don't come near, me, or I'll make you climb a tree!" said Mrs. Boyle, quietly. V'Why don't you go home and wash your face," she added as a final shot. The mob swarmed' round the woman with loud, angry cries, and it was only with the greatest difficulty that Stuart, aided by several men, including
Rev. J. S. Duncan, of the First Pres
byterian church of Mercer, could work his way through and start on the six-
square walk to the jail. The women were most bitter, and some of the mshouted, "Get a rope and lets fix the kidnaper," at which Mrs. Boyle flung back defiance only, and asserted to some of those near her that if she were only turned loose by the officers she would "chase you all two at a time." Sheriff William Chess, who had charge of Boyle, did not tarry in the mob. He seemed of the opinion that there mtght be in the mob's noise a plot concealed to liberate Boyle, so he I hurried him along handcuffed and with his hand always on the butt of his gun.

Paris, May 7. The recent strike by
the poBtoffice employes found a sensational sequel yesterday - when the
gauntlet was thrown down to the
prime; minister of France. A general strike is considered only a matter of
hours.
The Postal - Telegraphs and Tele-
Dhones EmDloyes' Association has
transformed itself into a syndicate, or union, under the law of 1884. thus placing the association on the same footing with workmen's unions, with
the right to strike against the state employer as the workmen have the privilege of doing against private em
ployers.
Must Act or Abdicate.
This defiance, : which, is
short of open r revolt.
after Premier Clemen ceau's failure to receive a deputation of - postal employes, who called to present demands for the redemption of promises which they claim the government made when the strike was declared off.
The government, which claims to
be prepared for any eventuality, it is conceded must now act vigorously or abdicate, and the leaders of the movement apparently have no option but to declare a strike the minute the government makes a hostile turn. The entire country is tremendously excited by the violent agitation of all sorts, to which it has been subject for months, and fears are entertained that a whirlwind will be unchained. There are even intimations in some quarters that the Royalists and other reactionaries are furnishing funds to stir up a revolution in the hope of eventually imposing a new regime. No level headed observer, however, seriously thinks the republic is in danger. Claim Illness Was Simulated. The premier was ill in his room when the delegation called, but they pretended to believe that his indispc-
4 aition was, simulated... Their, failure to I
be received, nowever, servea as a pretext for springing the surprise they
secretly had prepared, and within an hour the transformation of the association into a national syndicate was announced. '
" It was what the French call a coup
de theatre, but if it proves successful
it will be more like a coup d'etat, as
its purpose is to make the employes the masters and not the servants of
the state. The statutes of the organization follow strictly In form those of the work
men's organization. They declare the
purpose to defend economic Interests and give moral and material support to members having differences with the administration; and further to
seek the passage of economic and so
cial laws in the interest of the organ
ization.
Leaders Aligned With Radicals.
A committee is created, following
the lines of trades unions, to act as intermediary in such differences and members are forbidden under penalty
of losing their membership to present
issues which may arise personally to
the administration
The most serious aspect of the sit
uation is the fact that the leaders in
this new movement are undoubtedly
hand-in-glove with the moving spirits
of the General Federation of Labor.
which universally is recognized as
revolutionary organization and which
has for a long time been preparing
for a general strike to destroy "cap
italism." The suppression of this organisation frequently has been con
templated by the government.

New Orleans, La., May 7. The people of the lower Mississippi Valley, es
pecially those of New Orleans, were
happy last night. The big battle ship
Mississippi, which has been brought
from the naval station at Guantanamo, Cuba, to receive a silver service from
the people of the state from which she
takes her name, crossed the bar at the mouth of the Mississippi, entered
South Pass and came up the river to
New Orleans without a mishap of any
kind.
Original Plan. The original plan provided for the
presentation of the silver service off Horn Island, in the Gulf of Mexico, without side trips. Then a movement
was started to have the presentation made at Natchez, Miss., but this idea was not received with favor by the Navy Department. It was argued that the depth of the Mississippi River would not permit a battle ship as large as the Mississippi to make the
trip.
Those who put forward this objec
tion were met with such a .volume of statistics and reports of much larger vessels navigating the river, that it was finally decided that the ship
should make the trip to Natchez any
way, although "the presentation will
take place at Horn Island, as original
ly planned.
The Mississippi will remain in New-
Orleans until May 12.

Kamloops, B. C, May 7. Half a million dollars worth of property has been destroyed and scores of ranchers forced to flee for their lives as the result of a disastrous bush fire that swept the country from Notch hill 'a far east as the valley and south from Sicamous as far as Vernon. Among the losses are two large sawmills, both of which were totally consumed in the wall of flame that swept over the land. Mill hands had to flee for their lives. Three large bush fires were brought into contact by a terrific gale. Barns and houses fell prey to the fire and many head of cattle were lost. Scores of ranch properties were devastated on the main line of the Canadian Pacific railroad. Telegraph lines were destroyed for miles. ' ;
BANQUET POSTPONED
Jefferson Club Revel Will Probably Not Be Held Until July. TRY TO SECURE MARSHALL
.The date for the Jefferson club banquet, when the plans of the democrats for the ity election will be discussed, has been postponed once more and, although no date has been set, the probabilities are that it will be held in the middle of July. Frank Herring, of South Bend, and . Claude Bowers, of Terre Haute, are certain to be here, but the chances of securing Governor Thomas R. Marshall seem slimmer than ever. However, a committee, Including Pettis A. Reid, B. B. Johnson and Adolph BUckweldel, will meet Governor Marshall In the next few days and try to induce him to give hi3 promise to attend the banquet.
The River Indus in width during the year may vary by miles. Traffic for long distances can not be guaranteed because the ever-shifting channel throws up mud flats and sand banks here and overwhelms good land there in a manner which defeats the wisdom of the aacieat boatmen,
The English Football. Few people have any idea of the amount of labor expended ia the making of a football. The leather used is "split" cowhide, ordinary cowhide being too thick for the regulation weight Previous te splitting the leather has been soaking tat the tan pits for tea or twelve months. The "spirt" hide is well softened with tubbia and then passed to the cutter, who cats out the various sections, which, sewed together, make a perfectly round ball. The bladder Is made f Para rubber. This is Inflated by mschhiery. and the bail is then laced up. Finally It passes through the bands of the shaper, who pats down any inequalities in the seams or contour of the ball. London Globe.
., The New Phillips. .
The Phillips has a vaudeville novel
ty in Chas. Stowe's acting. He Imp
sonates characters of Shakespeare.
His act is high class and his interpre
tation of the different characters is
very fine. The costumes add much to
the different scenes, and it is an edu-
cation to hear this classic artist
Mr. Backman and his trained lions have the circus performers In the
back-ground continuously. He carries five of the powerful beasts and they are all at his immediate command, showing a wonderful amount of Intel-
ligense.
Johnson and Kew, the fiddler and
his wife, are classy comedians. Mr.
Johnson impersonates well the old
Maine rusticus and can play any kind of an instrument with anything from a
tooth-pick to a saw log.
