Louisiana is still addicted to the barbar-
ism of the duel, ex-Judge Cooley being
the victim on Monday, in duel fought
with one Rhett, Jr., editor of the New
Orleans Picayune. Rhett we think, is
one of the South Carolina stock of that
name, and the affair grew out of a libel
suit in which Cody was counsel against
the Picayune. The fatal result in this
case ought to create storm of effective
Indignation against this barbarous prac-
tice even in Louisiana.

tor and Vermonter, died in Florence,
Italy, last Friday. He was born in
Woodstock, July 20, 1905. In 1888 he
produced an ideal statue of Eve. pro-
nounced by Thorwaldsen a work which
any sculptor might be proud to claim as
his masterpiece. In 1889 he finished
the model of his most celebrated statue,
the Greek Slave. Mr.. Powers had long
been in failing health, and his death was
not unexpected.

A MURDERER TAKEN FROM JAIL AND
LYNCHED.
Sunday morning a body of masked
men entered Salem, Ind, seized and held
prisoners the town patrolmen, and pro-
ceeding to the Jail, demanded the keys
of Deputy Sheriff Cray who resides
in the building. The sheriff refused to
give up the keys under any peril, when
he was seized and confined, and sledge-
hammer procured, with which the mob
proceeded to force its way into the cell
of Delos Hefferen, who murdered Hal
stead few days since. They broke
through the outer door, and then got a
foot-stairs leading to the upper story
where Hefferen's cell was situated. The
doors were soon burst open, Hefieren had
watched the progress of the mob, and
had pepared himself as well as he could
for desperate resistance. The mob,
knowing the desperate character of the
man, procured balls of Irvine, saturated
them with coal oil and turpentine, and
threw some of them into the cell, and
threw others forward on the ends of long
poles and set them ablaze. Having thus
lighted up the cell, bringing their victim
into full view, the mob opened fire upon
him. Some twenty shots were fred, one
of which entered his breast and another
broke his arm. A rock was thrown at
him, struck him ON the head, knocked
him down, and before he could recover
he was seized, tied and dragged out OF
Jail. What are you going to do with
me 2" he asked. Hang you," was the
reply. 81 will go along with you," be
said. He was Immediately taken to a
covered railroad bridge about 80 feet
high about two squares from the jail
where he asked time to pray, but the
lynchers replied they could not wait. A
rope was put around his neck and thrown
over rafter of the bridge, and Heferer
was then pushed off. As soon as he was
dead the lynchers returned to the Jail
gathered up everything they had lief
that could afford clue to their identity
released the sheriff and guards and scat
tered in every direction. None were rec
ognized and no person knows by wha
road they entered or left the town.

There are numbers of these roads already

proved exceptionally successful. The Erie
is now almost the only road in the coun-
