MOB LAW.
Eight Negroes Taken from South Car
olina Jail and Shot.
Charleston, S. C, Dec. 28. A
mob of several hundred masked men
raided the jail at Barnwell, C. H.,
at 2 o'clock this morning, overpow
ered the jailor and took out eight
negro prisoners, charged with mur
der. These were Ripley Johnson
and Mitchell Adams, charged with
murdering a young man named Hef
ferman and six others, charged with
the murder of young Martin. The
prisoners were taken out of town and
shot to death. The jailor was tied
and forced to nccompauy the lynch
ers. The whole thing was done in a
very business like manner, the citi
zens of tin town knowiug nothing
about it. A great many negroes are
collected at the scene of the lyach
iug and more trouble is auticpated.
Ilibbard's Rheumatic Svrup and Plas
ters are prescribed by the leading phsi
ciansoi Michigan, its home state, and
are remedies ot unequaled merits for
rheumatism, blood disorders and liver
and kidney complaints. It comes with
the highest endorsements and reccom
endations as to its curative virtues.

INFLUENZA'S SWAY.
Many Cities in America More or Less
Affected Now.
No Serious Complications Keported in
This Country.
Paris, Dec. 27. The influenza is
spreading and is very fatal. The
number of deaths in the city from
all causes on Christmas day was 318
when for several years past the reg
ular average for that day has been
200.
' Fully one-third the populace is
prostrated.
The editor of the Mouituer Uni
versal and three soldiers died at the
IT V J
v ersauies uospiuu io-uuj. I
The situation in this city is excit
ing the gravest apprehension It
was reported this morning that 580
deaths from the disease had occur
red within the past twenty-four
prominent physician said to-day that
there were not less than 2,000 cases
of well defined "la grippev in this
city. He said that it attacked all
classes alike, and in some families
four out of the six members were
laid up with it. The disease, how
ever was of a mild type, and yielded
readily to medical treatment in from
three days to a week.
Vienna, Dec. 27. The hospitals
in this city are crowded with pa
tients suffering from influenza and
inflammation of the lungs, pleurisy
and peritonitis.
Omaha, Neb., Dec. 27. -Russian
influenza is privailing here in an ep
idemic form. It is estimated that
fully two-thirds of the population is
suffering from it at present.
Boston, Mass., Dec. 27. The in
fluenza is on the increase here. It is
safe to say that one-tenth the pop
uiation is suffering from it at pres
ent. The symptoms are more like
those of dengue fever than Russian
influenza.
Baltimore, Md., Dec. 27. Thirty
odd of the local postoffice clerks
and letter carriers are suffering from
influenza and are unable to work.
Numerous other local cases of "la
grippe'' are also reported.
Chicago, 111., Dec. 27. The Rus
sian influenza is said to have reached
this city. Dr. T. O. Summers, a phy
sician and surgeon who has passed
through two epidemics of the dis
ease in Russia, reports that since last
Monday he has had fifteen cases for
treatment. He predicts that in a
week the disease will prevail in all
parts of the city.
Facts Abont Human Late.
There are 3,0G4 languages in the
world, and its inhabitants profess
morn than 1,000 religions. The num
ber of men is about equal to that of
women. The average life is about
33. years. One-quarter die previous
to 17. To 1,000 persous only one
reaches 100 years of life; to every
100 six reach the age of 55. and not
more than on j in 600 lives to 80
years. There are on tai thji ne billion
inhabitants; o; ths 33,033.033 die
.-.very ve..r: 01.S23 . very day, 3,733
every hour, six'" every minute or
on evi-rv s cou l. Ths mairied are
longer lived than the single and,
above ail, those who observe a sober
and iudu&trious conduct.
Tall men live longer than short
ones. omen have more chances of
life in their favor previous to 50
years of age than men have, but few
er afterward. The number of mar
riages is in the propotriou of 75 to
1,000 individuals. Marriages are
more frequent after equinox that
is, during the months of June and
December. Those born in the spring
are generally of a more robust con
stitution than others. Births are
more frequent by mght than by day
as are deaths. The number of men
capable of bearing arms is calculat
ed at one-fourth the population.
Lincoln ami Davis.
Miss Gibbs, a teacher in a south
ern college, wrote to Jefferson Davis
asking him to write a sentiment
which might sf, e as a motto for
Southern women The reply she
received, says She St. Louis Repub
lic, might serve for the guidance of
mankind.
"For my fellow country women:
Be ye slow to anger, swift to forgive
and hold fast the chastity that raises
the lowly, with the self respect that
stoops not to the haughty. Jeffer
son Davis.'
xnis suggests a celebrated pas
sage in Abraham Lincoln's inaugural
address of 1864:
"With malice toward none, with
charity for all, with firmness in the
right as God gives us to see the
right, let us finish the work we are
in, to bind up the nation's wounds,
to car for him who shall have
borne the battle, and for his widow
and his orphans, to do all which
may achieve a just and a lasting
peace among ourselves and with all
nations."
Thus at the end, the two cheifs of
the opposing parties in the might
iest and bloodiest of civil wars ex
press a similar philosophy and a
kindred spirit.

Rheumatism.
Is undoubtedly caused by lactic acid
in the blood. This acid attacks the
fibrous tissues, and causes the pains
and aches in the back, shoulders,
knees, ankles, hips, and wrists.
Thousands of people have found in
Hood's Sarsaparilla a postitive cure
for rheumatism. This medicine, by
its purifying action, neutralizes the
acidity of the blood, and also builds
up and strengthens the whole system.
The Tariff and the Flood.
In fact, Mr. Cleveland's published
letters all bear more or less directly,
and always admirably, upon his
tariff position, which isn't as much
importance as it once was. Kansas
City Journal.
You think the tariff question not
very important, eh?
Do you happen to recall the inci
dent in which a stupid fellow re
marked, at the time ot the flood,
"Get away with your old ark, this
isn't going to be much of a shower'"
