next best, and his fethor, is the third bost.
The fire of last SdndaS destroyed great
deal of fenco in many places. But the people
turned out and helped the sufferers to repair
tho burnt places and oil tho fence is made
right again. Mr.. Beech Hill, who lives on
E. P. Earlc's plantation, got his house and all
he had in it burned. The fire about Town

LYncIlinE In Ohio.

RICHMOND, Ind, Oct. I, 1S7S.-A
midnight on Saturday in Da-ke county,
Ohio, vigilance committee mounted,
masked and armed with rifles, carbines
and shot guns met at the little village of
Tampico, twenty miles east of Richmond,
They held consultation and then pro-
ceeded to the outskirts of the village and
surrounded the house of an old negro
named Steve Wade. The leader com
manded him to come forth and die. lie
stepped into the parlor, where the moon
light fell upon him. Instantly fifty
charges were shot into his body, tearing
the window frame out and filling Wade's
body full of lead. His two SONS, heavily
armed, hid behind the house and offered
no resistance. Wade had been suspected
of stealing grain and vigilance commit
tee gave him thirty days notice to leave
the country. His sons are believed TO be
implicated with him in his theft.
just year ago white man was killed
under precisely similar circumstances at
Palestine, three miles distant. There is
great excitement in the surrounding
country in consequence of the lynching.
