HOLD RECEPTION
PRESIDENT AND MRS. ROOSEVELT
GREET MANY PEOPLE.
CROWD IS VERY COSMOPOLITAN
High and Low, Rich and Poor, All
Were Greeted with Sincere Cordial
ity by the Chief Executive and His
Wife.
WASHINGTON—President Roose
velt's reception was one of the most
j brilliant events in Washington's recent
social history.
All callers were afforded the oppor
tunity of greeting the president and
Mrs. Roosevelt and exchanging with
them the compliments of the New
: Year. No distinctions were made, ex
cept such as were rendered necessary
in preservation of order, and the greet
ings extended to all—high and low,
rich and poor—were alike cordial and
sincere.
The general public, for the first time,
had an opportunity to see the widely
heralded Improvements in the white
house—improvements which, when
completed, will have cost about $600,
000. In addition to a desire, person
ally^ to wish the president and Mrs.
Roosevelt a happy New Year, hundreds
were attracted by a wish to see the
white housei in its new and handsome
interior furnishings.
To many who were familiar with the
interior of the mansion as It was a
year ago the chang s made were a
revelation. While in a general way the
form of the interior has been retained
In beauty and effectiveness, it is wholly
different.
An hour before the time for the re
ception the mansion was aglow with
myriads of electric lights. Towering
palms of rare varieties were placed in
niches about the vestibule, main cor
ridor and rtulrcases. Two great square
masses of American and English holly
were arranged between the vestibule
and main corridor, affording a bril
liant and effective background for the
handsome scarlet uniforms of the Ma
rlne band, sixty strong, which occupied
the tiers of seats in the vestibule.
In the red, blue and green rooms,
and in the splendid east room were dis
posed a few vases containing cut flow
ers, principally white lilies and lilies
of tho valley. It was noticed, however,
that the floral decorations had been
suborned to the new furnishings and
finishings of the rooms.
At 11 o’clock the trumpeters of the
Marine band sounded a fanfare, an
nouncing the approach of the president
and Mrs. Roosevelt and the immediate
receiving party.
President Roosevelt, with Mrs.
Roosevelt on his arm, descended the
main staircase and, passing along tho
main corridor and through the green
room, entered the blue room, where the
guests were received.
Following them came the members
of the cabinet and women. The re
ceiving party were arranged in the arc
of a circle in tho bay window of the
blue room. Facing them were the wo
| men Invited to assist. Between the
two sections of the receiving party
a lane was formed by cordons of old
gold velvet. Through this line the
| callers passed from the red room, pro
ceeding through the green room Into
j the east room and thence down the
I staircase Into the east terrace, and
! passing Into the street opposite the
i west entrance of tho treasury.
The president was in excellent spir
its and Mrs. Roosevelt never seeme<J
! happier or more gracious. The presi
dent was attired In a frock suit and the
' only dash of color about his attire was
a tie of grayish tint.

nesses representative of the mine
owners, wholesalers anil retailers of
I roal was hoard Friday by the city
council committee on railroads, hav
ing in charge the inquiry, into the
cause of the present high prices of
soft coal. Out of 150 invitations sent

were responded to.
The committee interrogated the
dealers, but all the testimony was to
tne effect that a combination of eco

AVENGE POLICEMAN’S DEATH.
Mob Lynches a Kansas Negro Who
Committed Murder.
PITTSBURG, Kan. — Montgomery
Godley, a negro, was taken from the
jail here Thursday and lynched by a
mob because early In the morning he
shot and killed Milton Hinkle, a po
liceman, who was trying to protect
himself against a crowd of unruly
blacks.
The negro jerked the officer’s pistol
from the holster and shot him with
it from behind. Two hours later a
mob gathered and took Godley from
the city Jail, where he had been .in
carcerated, and hanged him to a tele
phone pole. As he was choking to
death one of the members of the mob
cut his throat and ended his suffer
ings.
A large number of negro men and
women from the various mining
camps in the vicinity, among them
Mont and Joe Godley, brothers, were
drinking and carousing at a ball. Hin
kle requested them to be quiet. The
Godley brothers answered him in an
Insulting and insolent manner and he
tried to arrest them. They resisted
and Hinkle blew his whistle for help.
He then began to use his club in or
der to protect himself from the on
slaught of the crowd. He was hold
ing his own against three of them
when "Mont” Godley grabbed the offi
cer's revolver, and, placing the muz
zle behind Hinkle’s right ear, pulled
the trigger. The ball passed through
his head and came out over the left
eye. He fell to the sidewalk. Other
officers pursued the negroes, all of
whom started to run when the officer
fell. The Godley brothers were both
captured and locked up in the city
jatl. Hinkle was carried to the city
hall, where he died at 2 o’clock.
CATTLE DISEASE COSTLY.
Will Take Much Money to Keep it
From Spreading.
WASHINGTON—While the Impor
tance of the Bubject is not generally
appreciated, it is still a fact that no
other matter has come up in congress
at this session which is of greater
moment than the proposition to spend
$1,000,000 in an attempt to stamp out
the cattle disease which has broken
out in New England. Thus far the
foot and mouth disease, as it is call
ed, is practically confined to Massa
chusetts and Vermont. It was, with
out doubt, brought to Boston from
Europe in the fodder of a consign
ment of horses. Just as soon as the
department of agriculture learned of
the outbreak prompt steps were tak
en to prevent its spread. But it is
estimated that there are at least 15,
000 cattle suffering from the disease
in the states named. Many affected
animals have been transported from
place to place in railroad cars and
these cars doubtless qpntain the
germs, which may readily be carried
to every state in the union. It will
cost the federal government more
than $500,000 to pay for the cattle
which must be slaughtered and buried
in New England alone. Should the
disease spreau, ten times that sum
would scarcely pay a tithe of the cost
which the government will incur in
enforcing the provisions of the law
applicable to cattle disease.
Miners Want More Pay.
SPRINGFIELD, 111.—W. D. Ryan,
secretary-treasurer of the United Mine
Workers of Illinois, says that the min
ers of the United States will make
a demand for a material Increase in
wages at the national convention at
Indianapolis on January 19.
Mr. Ryan says that the operators
are receiving a larger price for coal
than ever before, and they cannot
make the excuse that the mines are
not paying expenses.
Mr. Ryan says that the convention
will produce figures to show that the
total cost of mining a ton of coal and
give the public an idea of the profit
being reaped by the operators. Mr.
Ryan will attend the convention and
no doubt lead the fight for higher
wages.
Department Didn’t Dictate.
WASHINGTON—The attention of
the officers of the administration
charged with the direction of Philip
pine affairs is being called to a dis
patch front Rome to the effect that
Secretary Hav has written the Vati
can that Mgr. Messmer of Green Bay,
Wis., is impossible for the position of
Manila because of th.e fire brand
speech he recently made before the
Catholic Truth federation. The state
ment was made in most emphatic
terms that there was absolutely no
foundation for the story. It was fur
ther declared Jhat in no single in
stance has the United States govern
ment allowed itself to be placed in the
position of dictating the personality
of any priest or church official who
was to go to stay in the Philippines.

NEBRASKA IN GENERAL i
i >
.. &
FAVORS MRS. LILLIE.
Tide of Public Sentiment Turning To
ward Her.
DAVID CITY, Neb—With all Its
highly colored details, and with the
single execption that not a shot was
fired, the tragedy in which Harvey
Lillie lost his life the morning of Oc
tober 24 was re-enacted Wednesday aft
ernoon in the presence of Judge
Skiles, Attorneys Walling, Evans and
Harris for the state, Attorney Miller
for the defense and J. S. Hill, the
father of Mrs. Lillie, Coroner Sample
and Dr. A. J. Stewart.
In the presence of those eight the
details of the murder were rehearsed
with the actual settings. Gruesome
as it would naturally have been, it
was made more so by the presence of
a gray, ghastly skull, laid on the pil
low where the dead man’s head rest
ed when found.
Tho scene was enacted to give
Judge Skiles an accurate idea of the
location of the room, in order that
he might better judge of the testi
mony as it is given. Even the cur
tain, window and screen through
which the second bullet was fired were
hung in their accustomed places.
New Year's day came as a relief to
Mrs. Lillie, the central figure. For
three days she has been forced to sit
in the court room and listen to the
testimony of the witnesses. She had
to hear how Harvey Lillie, her mur
dered husband’s head was cut open,
the skull sewed in pieces, the brain
dissected and the dozen other little
points that were taken into account
at the autopsy. The efforts that have
been necessary to suppress her feel
ings through all this ghastly recital
have told on her to a pitiful extent.
Every one is discussing the evi
dence of the pijst few days and spec
ulating on its significance. So far,
nothing has been discovered that ’
would reflect upon her In any way.
In fact, several points nave been
brought out, such as contradictions of
testimony and fact, that make her j
case all the stronger.

“A man or woman who has never had
kidney complaint or any of the little
ills consequent upon irritated or inac
tive kidneys knows very little about
what prolonged suffering is. I had at
tacks which kept me in the house for
days at a time, unable to do anything,
and to express what I suffered can
hardly be adequately done in ordinary
Anglo-Saxon. As time passed, compli
cations set in, the particulars of which
I will be pleased to give in a personal
interview to any one who requires in
formation. I used plenty of remedies,
and, ever on the outlook for something
that might check or benefit my condi
tion, I began taking Doan’s Kidney
Pills. This I can conscientiously say,
Doan’s Kidney Pills caused a general
improvement in my health. They
brought great relief by lessening the
pain and correcting the action of the
