which was in progress at Bialvstok,

many persons. In consequence,
the Christians attacked and massacred
the Jews and demolished their
.shops. Hundreds of persons were
idlled or wounded. Anarchy prevails
in the city.
The bomb was thrown from the balcony
of a house in Alexandrov street
Immediately after the explosion,
Jews began to fire with revolvers
irom the windows of the house into
the crowd. Soldiers surrounded the
house and fired two volleys into the
windows. Aijeanwhile the enraged
Christians attacked the Jewish stores
In Alexandrov and Suraz streets, demolishing
the fixtures and windows
and throwing the goods into the gutters
and beating and murdering the
Jews. A crowd of Jews fled to the
railroad station, pursued by the
mob, which killed many of them
there. Three jews were thrown from
the second story windows of the railroad
station building.
The Jews are fleeing from Bialvstok
to the neighboring forests and
the mobs are pursuing them. Detachments
of dragoons have been sent
cut to protect the Jews.
TUd latest aispatcnes irom joiaivstok,
which were received in iSt Petersburg
about midnight, Thursday,
report a situation o? the utmost gravity.
The anti-Jewish outbreak there
v was still raging, fighting was in progress
in the streets, the firing was
continuous, the best stores in the city
had been sacked and many were dead
?r wounded. Figures, however, were
ant given, and probably the casualties
are not known in Bialvstok, owing to
the continuance of disorders.
The Jews, who number three-fourths
xit the population of the city, offered
the best resistance possible, many of
them being armed, but were unable
to prevent the pillaging of their
homes and places of business. Finalthe
military Interfered, but ao~
carding to advices received, with-out
being able to restore order. Re*
Inforcements have been rushed to
''JBialvstok from Grodno.
Several members of parliament on
"Wednesday night received message?
T; Irom Jewish correspondents at Bialvs-tok,
declaring that the police appar- ntly
had given over the Hebrew popvulation
to slaughter and pillage. These
-^correspondents urged that the only
hope was In an appeal to the minister
of the interior to interfere in their

called at the headquarters

were informed that all measures pos

JETT UNBOSOMS HIMSELF
Confession of Convicted Kentucky
Feudist Gives Details of Assassination
of Marcum and Others.
A special from Cynthiana, Ky.,
says: The confession of Curtis Jett
gives the details of the assassination
of James B. Marcum and James Cockrill,
and also throws new light on
the murder of Dr. J. B. Cox, the three
crimes having been committed during
the reign of feudism in Breathitt
county.
The confession is authorized by
Jett's attorneys. Jett says he, John
Smith anfl John Abner killed James
Cockrill; that Robert Deaton went
after Abner and Smith to aid in the
murder, and that Elbert 'Hargis, Jas.
Hargis, Ed Callahan, Jesse Spicer and
Bill Britton are the men who formed
the conspiracy.
Starting out with these statements,
he enters extensively into details of
the murder, anfl lays bare every feature
of the conspiracy and the events
before and after the murder.
He then confessed to the murder of
James B. Mlarcum, who, he says, was
killed at the instance of James Har- I
gis, and Ed Callahan, declaring that |
the pistol with which he did the shooting
was furnished him by Callahaa
for the purpose. He says B. J. Erwir.
told the truth about the killing.
Jett's statement in regard to the
assassination of Dr. Cox is little less
sensational than his assertions in regard
to the other murders. He says
he was at the jail and heard three
shots, after which the telephone rang.
He went to Aiex Hargis' nouse ana
Hargis asked what the shooting was,
Jett telling the story in these words:
"I said I did not know, and Uncle
Alex said, Tret's go down and see
If Jim or any of them > are hurt.'
"Uncle Alex stopped at Jim's garden
fence, I guess he was afraid to
run in, but I was fearless and did net
care, you know, and I went into the
yard, and in the shadow of the smoke
house?the moon was bright as day?
I shall never forget it?stood EM Callahan,
Jim Hargis, Bill Britton, Jesse
Spicer and Elbert Hargis, with two
shotguns; I saw no pistols."
Jett closes his confession by saying
that he has told the "plain truth,
nothing more and rothing less." He
relieves Alex Hargis of any complicity
in the Cockrill and Marcum
murders, saying he is "innocent"
KENTUCKY'S
"HOME-COMING."
Thousands of Wanderers Return
Again to Land of Nativity.
A Louisville dispatch says: While
rain Wednesday caused a postponement
of the outdoor features of the
home-coming week, it was unable to
affect the .fervor of the greeting extended
by Kentucky to her long absent
sons and daughters, and the exercises
of welcome day, which were
conducted in the armory on Walnut
street, were carried through in a manner
both brilliant and gratifying.
Despite the fact that the rain fell
heavily Just prior to the hour at
which the day's program was to commence,
fully 10,000 pebple were present
The visitors could not but be
charmed by the warmth of the welcome
that was extended to tneni.
Mayor Bath greeted them in behalf
of the people 6f Louisville, and Governor
Beckham expressed in an eloquent
manner the pleasure felt by
the people of the state at large m
having them back once more.
The address of Henry Watterson
was, howeve?, the formal note of Welcome,
and it struck a responsive
chord. No audience could ask for
more graceful welcome, no speaker
could desire a wanner appreciation
than was rendered by the listeners to
Mr. Watterson.

SUNDAY SCHOOL CONGRESS
Of Negro Baptists of United States
Meets in Nashville. x
The Sunday school, congress of the
negro Baptists of the United States
convened in Nashville, Tenn., Wednesday
morning for a session of five
day3. This meeting is held under the
auspices of the National Baptist Publishing
board and the National Board
of the Baptist Young People's Union.
Americana Are Paint Users.
It has been remarked that the :iaer?"
fean people consume more paint, botli
in the aggregate and per capita, than
any other people iu the world. In a
recently published article on the subject
it was figured that our yearly
consumption is over 100,000.000 gallons
of paints of all kinds, of which over
one-half is used in the paintings of
houses.
The reason for this great consumption
is twofold: a large proportion of
our buildings, especially In small
towns and rural districts, are constructed
of wood, and we, as a people,
are given to neatness and cleanliness.
For, take it all in all, there is nothing
so cleanly or so sanitary as paint.
Travel where we will throughout the i
country, everywhere we find the neat,
cheerful painted dwelling, proclaiming ;
at once the prosperity and the selfresnect
of our nonulation.
Fifty years ago this was not so;
painted dwellings, while common in
the larger cities and towns, were the
exception in the rural, districts; because,
on the one hand, a large proportion
of those buildings were temporary
makeshifts, and, on the other
hand, because paint was thei^a luxury,
expensive and difficult to obtain in the
out-of-the-way places, and requiring
special knowledge and much preparation
to lit It for use.
The introduction of ready mixed or
prepared paints, about 1860, changed
the entire aspect of affairs. As the
Jack-of-all-trades told the Walking
Delegate in one of Octave Thanet's
stories "Any one can slather paint."
The insurmountable difficulty with
our predecessors was to get the piint
ready for "slathering." That the country
was ready for paint in a convenient,
popular form is shown by the immediate
success of the Industry and its
phenomenal growth in fifty years from
nothing to 60,000,000 gallons?the estimated
output for 1900.
Some pretty severe things have been
written about and said against this
class of paints, especially by painters
and manufacturers of certain kinds of
paste paints. DoubLless in many instances
these strictures have been justified
and some fearfully and wonderfully
constructed mixtures have in the
past been worked off on the guileless
| consumer {u the shaDe of prepared
paint. But aucn proaucts have had
their short day and quickly dlsapfJelred,
and the too enterprising manufacturers
that produced them have
come to grief in the bankruptcy
courts or have learnet by costly experience
that honesty is the best policy
and Lave reformed their ways.,
Tho rnonHnns tn thlt lTllfe nrs
some mall order houses who sell direct
to the country trade, at a very lew
price?frequently below the wholesale
price of linseed oil. The buyer of such
goods, like the buyer of a "gold brick,"
has only himself to blame if he finJ-t
his purchase worthless With gold
selling at any bank or mint at a fixed
price oyrn^rs of . gold do not sell it at
a discount; and with linseed oil quoted
everywhere at fifty to seventy cents a
gallon, manufacturers do not sell a
pure linseed oil paint at thirty or forty
cents a gallon.
The composition of prepared paints
differs because paint experts have not
yet agreed as to tin best pigments
and because the dally results of tests
on a large scale are constantly improving
t~e formulas of manufacturers;
but all have come to the conclusion
that the essentials of good paint
are pure linseed oil, fine grinding and
thorough Incorporation, and in these
particulars all the products of reputable
manufacturers correspond; all
first class prep-red paints are thoroughly
mixed and ground and the liquid
base Is almost exclusively pure
linseed oil, the necessary volatile
"thinners" and Japan dryers.
The painter's opposition to such prostata
? !fl wtpIt on self-interest.
He want; to mix the paint himself I
and to be paid for doing it; and to a
certain class of painters it Is no recommendation
for a paint to say that it
will last fire or ten years. The longer
a paint lasts the longer he will have
to wait for the job of repainting. The
latter consideration has no weight with
the consumer, and the former is a
false Idea of economy. Hand labor
can nerer be as cheap or as efficient
as machine work, and every time the
painter mixes paint, did he bnt know
it, he is losing money, because he can
buy a better paint than he can mix
at less than it costs him to mix it
Prepared paints have won, not only
on their actual merits, but on their
convenience and economy. They are
comparatively cheap, and they are incomparably
handy. Bnt when all is
said, the experien&d painter is the
proper person to apply even a ready
mixed paint He knows better than
any one else the "when" and "how"
and the difference between painting
and "slathering" is much greater than
it appears to a novice. Every one to
his trade, and after all painting le the
painter's trade and not the household*

SCARCITY OF LABOR
Leads Farmers of Georgia to
Seek Convict Help.
FINES OF PRISONERS PAID
So Great is Demand That Misdemeanor
Prisoners Show Ten Per Cent
Decrease?State Prison Commission's
Report
Another indication of the great
/ ?* Inhrn 4tt YYnnwIo OTlri thlfl
OMIUt/ U1 AChUV/i AAA ?*~v? M*4?
applies especially to the agricultural
districts, is found in the annual report
of the state prison commission,
which is now being prepared by Secretary
Goodloe Yancey, and part of
which has already been placed in the
hands of the public printer.
This report, which is based on June
1, shows that there has been a decrease
of fully 10 per cent in the
number of misdemeanor convicts on
the county chaingangs In Georgia, nobwithstanding
the fact that there has
been an increase among the felony
convicts.
j The explanation of this is that owing
to the scarcity of labor, farmers
where they are able to do it are paying
the fines of able-bodied prisoners
and putting them on their plantations
to work it out It is true they take
their chance on getting the equivalent
of the fine in labor, but in so
great need of labor do they stand
that they are willing to do this and
sometimes even more.
In 1905 the prison commission's report
showed 2,283 misdemeanor convicts,
of whom 152 were white men,
anH flro white women. Th? renort
this year for June 1 shows a total
of 2,043 misdemeanor convicts in the
state, of whom eighty-eight are white
men, and only one white woman. Had
it not been for the fact that many farmers
have paid the fines of the men
convicted in order to get their labor,
there Is no doubt about the fact that
there would have been: an increase
in the number shown on the misdemeanor
gangs.
The commission's report shows this
year a total of 2,344 felony convicts,
as against 2,230 in 1905, an increase of
64. Notwithstanding an increase in
the total number of felony convicts,
the number of white felons shows a
considerable decrease as compared
with last year. In 1905 there were
284 white men and 7 white women in
the penitentiary, while this year there
are only 207 white men and 6 white
women. The counties which use felony
convicts on their public roads in
lieu of receiving proceeds from convict
hire for public schools, have at
this time 571 short-term convicts, as,
against 537 at the same time last year,
the variation being very slight
It is expected the commission's report
will be completed, printed and
ready for distribution by the time the
legislature meets on June 27.
ONE CENT RATE REFUSED.
Roads WUI Charge Two Cents for
Transporting Georgia Troops.
Georgia's military officials are just<
now agitated over whether they will
be able to send two or three regiments
to the coming encampment of
troops at Chickamauga. It all depends
on the railroad rate.
The "state has asked for a rate of
1 cent a mile for the troops from
their stations to Chickamauga Park.
The Southeastern Passenger Association
has, so far, declined to give this
rate, and has Informed them that
the rate would be 2 cents a mile.

GROWING COTTON IN KOREA.
Japs Thinks Staple Can Be Profitably
Produced Near at Hand.
The members of the Japanese
| house of representatives, who have
been visiting Korea to study the cotton
prospects, have returned to Tokio
with a hopeful report They think
that at a moderate estimate the crop
ought to be worth $4^,000,000 annually.
Japan new imports yearly from
India and elsewhere $35,000,000 worth
of cotton, which probably will be
largely replaced by Korean cotton
should the estimate be correct
BANKERS' MEMORIAL PRESENTEO

A SCENE IN THE HOUSE.
Speaker Cannon Dramatically Answers
Insinuation by Statehood
Delegate from Arizona.
A Washington special says: Not in
many years has the house of representatives
"witnessed a more dramatic
scene than it witnessed Thursday, incident
to the adoption of the conference
report on statehood.
A round of cheers from both sides
of the chamber greeted Chairman
Hamilton of the committee, while he
movea tne adoption 01 the report.
While there was no discussion on the
report itself, a more unexpected episode
occurred.
Marcus A. Smith, the delegate from
Arizona, took occasion in a guarded
way to insinuate that there had been
undue influence used in postponing
an agreement
Smarting under what he believed to
be a direct insinuation against him,
Speaker Cannon impetuously left the
chair, calling M!r. Dalzell to the desk,
and, taking a position in the aisle,
he asked the speaker pro tern, for
five minutes to explain his position.
Thunders of applause greeted the
speaker as he stood with hand uplifted,
his head shaking, waiting for
quiet in the house.
Finally order was restored, and
then, measuring every word, Speaker
Cannon said:
"Mr. Speaker: As a member of the
house of representatives during this
session as at all other sessions, I have
represented my constituents, and acted
for the whole people according to
my best Judgment The coming into
the union of Oklahoma and the Indian
Territory meets my approval. Tf
t hnd anv choice, and were infinitely
supreme, I would prefer to see Oklahoma
and the Indian Territory come
separately with an aggregate population
of two and almost one-half millions,
with four senators, rather than
to see New Mexico and Arizona come
together, and God knows, rather to
see them come singly with about 300,000
population with four senators.
"You have the result before you,
Although every man. in the Indian
Territory should vote against statehood
for the proposed new state
of Oklahoma, notwithstanding that
protest the state would be and will
be formed under this enabling act
There is no separate vote there. There
is a separate vote, however, as to
the other two, I would not have
taken the floor had not the honorable
gentleman, the delegate from Arizona
(Mr. Smith) made the remark
that there was a high penalty for the
governor of that territory to attempt
to influence legislation, or for one
legislative body or its membership
to attempt to traffic in legislation
with ^ the other in order to_ secure
certain other legislation, if I correctly
state him. That remark could not
have had but one motive and one
meaning, and that meaning is that
some one in the house has sought
to affect legislation in the house as
a matter of traffic in order to secure
action upon this matter in the senate.
That Imputation implied, so far as I
Ifpow or believe upon any other mem
ber of tills house, is unwortthy of the
gentleman that uttered It, and Is without
foundation in fact" (Loud applause.)
When Speaker Cannon finished the
house was in an uproar. It could not
be controlled, nor did the presiding
officer make any effort toward controlling
it Members who had sat in
silence during the delivery of the
speech, democrats and republicans
alike, crowded around the speaker
to shake him by the hand, and tell
him how glad they were that the long
drawn out fight for statehood had
been happily ended in a compromise,
and that his speech voiced the sentiments
of the members.
