The grasshoppers were kinder to the

then, without means to pay the interest on
their mortgages. and the money-'endcrs If
several counties have been 81, heartless as
to bring foreclosure suits and dispose of
many Of the farms. The cpithcts which

4 Night ca tho Border.

ST. JOSEPH, Mo-, Jan. 2j-Phillp Ames
intended IT, elopc from his home near
Albany, in this state, u few days ago, dc
setting his wife and going away with her
sister. NelShbprs learned Of what he
was about - do, and ut night surrounded
his house 10: the purpose Of taking him
out and coating him with tar and feathers.
Their rough usage had not progressed FIR,
however, before Mrs. Ames bcsought them
to stop, and in consequence 1T her en-
treaties, they spared him; but, before re-.
leasing him they warned him that further
misbehavior on his part would bring ON
him certain and severe punishment.
Ames was inturiated by this cxperi.
cnce. rather than sublued. Soon after the
departure Ut the mob, he went to a room
where lis wife was praying, knocked her
down, dragged her out Of doors, and heat
her to death. Then the sister, VIII" had hid
den herself in a barn during the presence
Of the neighbours, returned u the house.
How she was affected by the murder is
not known; but ii is certain that it did
not turn her against Amcs. They did no,
abandon the idea of elopement. Two
horses were saddled, and as much If their
portable property rs could be packed IN
travelling bags was got together. The
body of the dead wife was laid across
one horses back, and the sister mounted
the other, the first horse being led by
Amcs. Thus they went about Il mile to u
river, which was frozen over. Anes cut
= hole through the ice. and threw the
body into the water. Doubtless lie sup
posed that, when in the morning the dis
appearance Of the family was observed,
the belief would lie that all had quit the
neighbcrhM'd together. That result was
prevented by the fact that \ young man
saw what Was done ut the river, and I'M.
n,edl.tely aroused the men who had
formed the first mob. ...;
Ames and his sister.in.law mounted the
horses and rode away, not knowing that
,Aey had been watched. It was then
nearly daylight; but they had spent time
enough in hiding the body TO give the
mob chance to form anew. They were
overtaken and captured. Ames WAS
promptly hanged to tree. The woman
was delivered TO the Sheriff of the county.
