says:
They are nice things and are highly
enjoyable, and for raising money for
any kind ola charitable purpose they
have no equal. The usual prices are
as follows; kissing a young lady
from twenty to twenty five years Of
age, ten cents; from twenty-five to
thirty years of age, FIVE cents; kissing
ayoung married woman while her hus-
band looks on, one dollar, kissing old
maids free. with cromo thrown in. II
the young ladies' wish to complete the
church in course of erection, let them
get up something Of this kind, and we
venture the assertion that enough
funds will be forthcoming to do it, as
every old bach will even "squandcr
his wealth" in the cause.

Crimes and Casualties.

n NEGRO LINCHED IN KANSAS.
ST. LOUIS, March 27.-A Fort Scott (Kan-
sas) dispatch says: "On Tuesday Bill How.
ard, the negro who cruelty and deliberately
outraged Clara Pond, twcIve.year-uld
child, was discovered in an old mine six
miles from the city. The prisoner was
brought to town and lodged in Jail. The
excitement was intense. and threats Of
lynching were made. The crime is 50 hor-
rible as to be without q parallel in criminal
history. Last night crowd OF fully one
thousand, accompanied by thirty masked
men, with drawn rcyolvers, took the negro
from Jail, tied Il rope around his neck,
dragged him five blocks, and hung him to a
lamp-post on the corner OF the public
square. After hanging fifteen minutes. on
the cry OF Burn him Burn him |" the
body was taken down, and, in spite of the
resistance and objection OF the more calm
and pcaceable portion OF the crowd, was
roasted and burned in a fire of dry-goods
boxes and coal-oil, amid demonstrations that
rivalled pLndemonium.'
