stable and posse of four men started with
him for this place to commit him TO the
county Jail. About a mile and half out
from Auburn, four men with blackened
faces rode out from the bushes, knocked
Walters, who had drawn his revolver,
to defend the prisoner, from his horse and
shot League, the ball entering his back near
the shoulder blade and coming out in front.
League was tied to a horse which took fright
and galloped through the woods followed by
the mobbers, who kept up rambling hre.
Leagues clothes were torn from his body
and he was horribly mutilated by the brush.
He was found to be alive, and from bis con-
dition 1t lis not thought that his wounds will
cause his death. He was taken TO house
near by and 1t is thought that the lynchers
will return tonight and finish him. They
are supposed to come mostly from Mont
gomery county, where League also stole a
horse. League has served two terms In the
penitentiarY for horse stealing.

AN APPEAL TO THE PRESIDENT.
THE ARKANSAS AFFAIR.

AN OFFICIAL RISES TO MAKE A DENIAL-Gov.
SMITH TO BE SOUGHT FoR-THINGs QUIET.
LITTLE Rock, ARK, Nov. 15.-Col. j. NJ.
Johnson, secretary of state under Gov. Bsx-
ter, who turned over his office to his success
sor under the new constitution, authorizes a
denial of the statement from WASH
ington that he, with the other
state officers elected with Smith, now
recognize Smith as governor. The most
perfect quiet prevails throughout the city.
Wv. Smith and his secretary of state,
Wheeler, can nowhere be found. Garland
will tomorrow offer reward for their ap-
prehension and arrest, that they may be
brought before the courts and there held to
answer to the charges brought against them
under the laws of the state. Neither Gov.
Garland nor the legislature, which is now
in session, will appeal to either the president
or Congress, the state authorities being fully
able to protect the government. Report has
it that Smith is hidden in the United States
arsenal. Public sentiment is almost en-
tirely against him, both among the friends
of the late Gov. Baxter and those of Mr.
Brooks.

past, threatening TO remove the rolling
stock and equipments from the
railroad and TO dispose of the
same for their own use and to
apply the proceeds to the liquidation of the
$40 bonds and the interest thereon. The
plaintiff AYERS that necessity exists fer is
suing temporary restraining order on the

According to an English journal, the diff
flculty of removing hard putty from win
dow sash can be obviated with great readi-
ness by simply applying piece of heated
metal, such as solcering-iron or other
similar implement. When heated (but not
red-hot) the iron is to be passed slowly over
the putty, thereby rendering the latter so
soft that 1t will part from the wood without
any trouble.

1t having beesi currently reported
that the editor Of the CHIEF, in an
address to the Fourth Ward Central
Republican Club, advised tile colored
people to arm themselves, we desire
to inform the public that the runior is

caution individuals who repeat it that

slander-an outrageous LIE. We have
never given any but pacific counsel
to whites or blacks, and have care
fully avoided any expression which
