A negro was murdered at Bowling
Green, KY, couple of weeks ago by
two men. The murderers tell their,
own story, and of course it was all
the fault of the negro. That kind of
thing is very common at the South,
and if there was no hereafter, it
would be probably safe way of solv-
ing the negro question. Whenever
two white men could find negro
alone, kill him, and then say he in
suited them, and no further proceed.
ings would be necessary, g
GUERRILLAs RESCUED. "A letter
from Bowling Green to the Louisville
Democrat states that about 3 o'clock
Friday morning the guerrilla Captain
Harper, with thirty-fve or forty men,
well armed and mounted, entered that
town and proceeded to the Jail, tell
ing the jailor they had saree pris-
0ners who had been sent thIthe- for
safe keeping. As soon as the alleged
prisoners were In the hall Of the jail,
they drew revoigers aad demanded
the keys of the 3Sil, which the jailor
was compelled 60 deliver They then
released a prisoner named Moy, one
of their own gang, and also two other
men confined for horse stealing. At
