dispatch TO the Wheeling Registe1. from Charles

Ing which occurred near The mouth of the Big
Sandy river. In Logan county, has just been re-
eeiyed. The victim was VIM. A. Capen, lad
OF IS years, who On May 1st shot and killed a
young man OF his neighborhood named Lou
Mathepy. The story OF the first crime is
that the two young men were suitors for the
hand OF Miss White. and In a jealous
quarrel between them Matheny was Shot to
death. 1t is now alleged that great indig-
nation was aroused at the time, 1t being claimed
by the friends of Matheny that the shooting
was an unprovOked murder. Since then there
has been steady growth OF an intensely hos
tile sentiment to Capen, and toward the close
OF last week the plan was formed to summarily
dispose of him. The band that lynched him
numbered seventy-fve men, who surrounded
the house where Capen was shortly after dark
The boy was surprised and overpowered before
ne had an opportunity to prepare for his de-
fence. He was led to a convenient tree, and,
though begging piteously for his life, his merci-
less captors roughly tied rope about his neck,
and hauling him up hand over hand until his
feet cleared the ground, left him to die The
