Especial ,sEsgram to the Dispa,ch.J
AEExANDRIA, March 23.-One of the most
shocking and revolving outrages which ,hu.
man nature is opab4e of perpetTating, the
crime Of rape, was eensummated lass night in
Prince George copHty, Nd, Immediately op-
poslte this city, bS o negro named Jerry
alas John Scott, upon the person Of Mrs.
John Nelson, the wife of scott's employer.
1t had been the custom of Mr.. Nelson to
pay periodically business visits to Washing
ton city, and having implicit confidence in
the integrity Of Scott, entrusted to his pro.
lection the: cafe of bis wife and child Be-
fore going to Washington yesterday eYeaing
Mr.. Nelson gave Scott his revolver fop bis
better security in protecting the property,
with directions to take care Of the place usLl
his return this morning.
At the dead hour Of the night Scott,
whose custom it was to sleep in the same
house with bis employer. entered the room
Of Mrs. Nelson, carrying the revolver,
and by threats and force committed the
most dastardIy outrage knewn in the calen-
dar of crime. The cries, tears, and entreatiss
of Mrs. Nelson, whose condition was the
most delicate, were unheeded and unavailing
to thwart the dreadful doom to " hich the
lustful passion of the desperate fend had
consigned her, and she was compelled TO
remain with him until nearly morning and
submit, under fear of death, to his outrages.
After the accomplishment of his desires be
placed the revolver to bis left side and dis
charged its contents, producing what is sup
posed would have proved fatal wound.
Mrs. Nelson, supposing that Scott was dead,
hurried as fast as she could, in her night
clothes and barefooted, and almost frozen,
to the nearest house, which was occupied by
colored man named Henry Morris, who,
upon being informed of what had occurred,
spread the news. and in short time party
proceeded to the house, where they found
the negro not dead, but weltering
in his gore. a rope was soon
procured, and he was carried about a
hundred and City yards from the house, and
at daylight this morning the rope was tied
around his neck and thrown over limb of a
poplar tree, and the dying villain was hauled
up and suspended in the air, where at the
last report be was still hanging, an exempl.
f:aton Of just rctriDutiou. Among the
crowd who were assembled at the house pre-
vious to the hanging were many colored
people, and Of oil preseyt they were the
most intent upon melting out to the criminal
the justice he deserved, and but for the white
people would have kindlcd fire and laid
him upon it.

1t is the duty of all persons before start
ing on a Journey, to ascertain by what route
they can reach their destination with the
least trouble, and if there are two or more
roads leading to the same point, to decide
which is the safest and pleasantest to trav-

We take pleasure in stating that the Chi

and several miles the shortest, between
Omaha and Chicago. Within the past two
years the road bed has been put in admira-
bic condition, and almost the entire line has
been relaid with steel rails.
The depot in Chicago iscentrally located,
and as their trains arrive there thirty min
utes in advance of all other lines, pasen-
gers can always be sure of making eastern
connections. For all points in northern
and northeastern Iowa, you should purchase
tickets via Marshall, Cedar Rapids, or
Clinton. For points in northern Illinois OF
Wisconsin, via Fulton and if you are go

FRIGHTFUL MURDER.
A Man Murdered in Craig, No.,
by bsing Knocked in the
Head.
Arrest of the Supposed MUIR
derers.

From the 81. Joe Gr=s,e We learn the
| particulars of one Of the most brutal muir
ders that has ever occurred in that State.
Last Saturday night an inhuman and
diaboiical murder was enacted in Craig, a
small town in Holt county, on the K. C.,
St. Joe & c. B. road, about forty miles
north Of St. Joseph. Two young men nam
ed John Shaw and George Williams, who
reside in the county, about three miles east
of Craig, were in town Saturday attending
an auction, and during the day visited the
saloons until they became drunk. They
met a negro man in the street and had some
words, but persons interfering they left,
threatening TO see the negro some other
time. Shaw and Williams remained in
town during the day, and about ten o'clock
at night were in a saloon with John Red
mond drinking. The three men left the sa.
loon to hunt up the negro with
whom they had had the difficulty
during the day, but could not
find him. Where they went no one knows,
but in about twenty minutes after leaving
the saloon Redmond entered DIR. Johnston's
drug store with on ugly wound under the
left eve which was bleeding profusely, and
said that John Shaw had shot him. DIR.
johnson examined his wound, and then
told him that he should 60 home, and in the
morning he would call and dress the wound.
Mr.. Snipes and Mr.. Meek who were in the
drug store started home with him, and
while on the way again asked him who hit
him. Redman replied, IL am shot, and it
was done by Shaw" and in few more mo
ments he became unconscious. Meek and
Snipes arrived home with their charge and
put him to bed. Sunday morning, about
five o'clock, the unfortunate man died.
Warrants were issued by Justice
of the Peace and placed in the hands
of constable for the arrest of
Shaw and Williams. The constable found
the young men at their homes and brought
them into town. A coroner's jury was then
and the wound of the dead
man was examined by Drs. Bacon and
johnson, and after a thorough examination
paralysis of the brain, which resulted in |
his death. The jury were all day hearing
evidence, and about six o'clock in the eve
ming returned a verdict that John Redmond |
came to his death by the hands Of John |
Shaw or G. Williams. The examination Of |
Williams and Shaw commenced yesterday |
in Craig.
The murdered man lived in C:aig, and |
leaves wife and five small children in an
almost destitute condition. Redmond was |
considered good citizen, although he was
addicted to drinking. He was a hard
working man, and was esteemed by all who |
knew him. At the time Of his death he
