Horrible Cruelty. A Boy Tortur'
ed for q Crime of which
He was Innocent.

A few weeks since a wandering,
homeless boy of twelve or fourteen
took up his home with one Mckis-
sock, farmer Of Linn township, War
rem county. A few days since two
Young men from Pennsylvania stop
ped on visit with Mckissock, occu-
pying the same room during their
stay. On Monday morning last they
claimed to have been robbed of their
pocketbooks containing about $50,
during the night. The boy was at
once accused, and with pistol and
knife in the hands Of his prosecutors
was fercely threatened with death if
he did not confess. Failing to extract
any confession, one Hart was called
in to try his hand at torturing the
poor boy. Again and again the raw
hide was mercilessly applied at short
intervals till Monday night. The boy
was taken to well some ten fee,
deep with about FIVE feet of water in
it, and, with rope around his neck
was lowered repeatedly head foremost
into the water until nearly drowned
On Monday evening he was taken up
stairs in Mckissock's house by Nc
kissock and Hart and there laid on
his face on the floor, his feet bound
with rope passed over the rafter, SC
as to draw his feet some twenty inch
es from the floor. His hands were
bound behind him and drawn up in
the same way TO about the same ele-
walton, and his head dashed to bed
post by cord from his neck. In this
condition he was left until about ten
o'clock on Tuesday, when some OF the
neighbors discovered him and releas-
ed him from his painful position,
more dead than alive. The boy had
neither food nor water, save when
ducked in the well, from Sunday ey-
ening until Tuesday noon.
His appearance on yesterday at the
trial of Mckissick and Hart, before
Esquire Edwards, of Linn township.
Warren county, was most pitiable,
and called expressions Of horror and
sympathy from all that saw him. Not
hands breadth on limbs or body
that is not lacerated and bruised, and
his wrists and neck show plainly the
marks Of the ropes with which he
was bound and hung. These fends
amused themselves by repeatedly
hanging him by the neck.
An intense excitement pervades
the community, as is shown by the
fact that McKissick A. Hart. both men
Of property, had difficulty in getting
bail for their appearance at court,
while some twenty of the solid men
of the township stepped forward a.
the word to stand AS "next friend"
to the boy in civil action for dam
ages.
McKissick & Hart were both re-
cognized to answer for an assault with
intent to inaict great bodily injury.
and served with notice in civil
action for $4,000 damages.-Des

In every car on the Connecticut
River Railroad there is a box over
head, at one en- OF which is contained
the name Of the next station, which it
is the duty Of the brakemen TO change
as they leave the stations. And it
goes farther; it states where they con-
meet with other roads. As the change
is made, bell strikes twice, which at
tracts the attention of the passengers,
so tina. the box always exhibits the
name of the next station, and so on.
Thus passengers always know the
name of the stopping place, and also
il it connects with any other rail.

The Cheyenne Leader makes all ap-
peal for the preservation o.the Buffalo
from indiscriminate slaughter. Last
year 200 900 were killed for their skins
alone. The extension Of railroad ha-
given the hunters AN opportunity to
drive the bufIaloes into comparatively
restricted districts, and thus they are
penned and shot down, and tens Of
thousands of carcasses are left rot;ing
on the ground. The destruction has
been so great that the market has been
seriously affected.
