Farmers In the Fields.
In some places farmers were busy
all day long In the fields , taking ad
vantage of the weather to push along
their husking bee. It was for no lack

fulness for another good dny In which
to get their corn crop cribbed.

MAJOR PENROSE UNDER FIRE.
Army Officer Known In Norfolk Called
on for Explanation.
Major Ponroso , formerly nt Fort Nl-
obrara , and known In Norfolk , who
was In command of the battalion of
colored troops at Brownsville , Is now
.Hitler fire from the white house. Ho
s alleged to have said , when the
.roops wore mustered out , "Thoro goes
.he last of the best drilled , best be-
laved battalion in the United States
army. " The department has demand
ed an explanation. If ho admits say-
ng It , it Is said ho will probably ho
courtmartlalled for criticising n su-
lorior officer.
Gilchrlst Stewart , colored , there to
nvestlgatc facts , nuked him If that
statement was for publication nnd ho
said , according to Stewart , "It certain-
y is. "
General Nottleton , formerly assist
ant secretary of the treasury , has just
nvestigatcd the case at Brownsville
and makes this report :
The well attested evidence is that
: ho colored troops were treated herewith
with the same consideration that colored -
ored soldiers of like bearing are treated -
od In most garrison towns of the
northern states. That on the other
[ land the street conduct of some of
them was often aggressively and
causelessly insolent toward white men
and women , and that there was no
provocation for the murderous raid by
the soldiers , unless It can be called a
provocation that the drinkers among
them were provided with separate bars
In certain saloons and on two occa
sions Individual insolence was resent
ed by individual citizens , but one of
whom happened to haVe boon a repub
lican federal olllclal. There wab no
"riot" and no street "rows , " as many
newspapers persist In calling the oc
currence. It was simply a most cow
ardly conspiracy to terrify , wound nnd
kill unoffending men , women and chil
dren nt the hour of midnight , when
defense was Impossible and was not
even attempted. Evidently not an op
posing shot was fired.

WILL MRS. EDDY LIVE FOREVER ?
George N. Beels Discusses View as
Expressed In New York.
Asked for his opinion upon the view
of a Christian Scientist to the effect
that Mrs. Mary Baker Eddy will live
forever , George N. Beels of this city ,
leader of the faith In Norfolk , said :
"Mrs. Eddy , the discoverer and
founder of Christian Science , has ful
ly stated the system In her book which
amply explains such a text as this
from John 11:20 : , "Whosoever llveth
and belloveth in mo shall never die , "
and shows that It "not only contra
dicts human systems but points to the
self sustaining and eternal truth. "
"All Christian Scientists arc seeking
to demonstrate the teaching of Christ
Jesus , and follow In the way ho point
ed out. "
