KANSAS it would seem, is not the
Paradise that was promised the colcred
exodusters. The record of the lynching
of three eolored men in that State is
given. Here are some of she particu-
lars
Early yesterday morning large armed
mob broke into the jail and secured Vine
gar, Robinson and King, the negro MUIR
derers. Vinegar and King were stolid, and
had little to say, but Robinson broke down
and dropped on his knees several times, beg
ging for his life. They were taken to the
iron wagon bridge over the Kansas River, a
distance of about a square from the Jail.
The arms of the prisoners had been pinion-
ed and the ropes adjusted about their necks
before leaving the Jail. Upon reaching the
middle span of the bridge Robinson's rope
was secured to the iron work of the bridge
A dozen strong arms lifted him from his
feet and dropped him over, but in doing so
the rope binding his arms became unfas-
tened, and reaching up he caught hold of
the rope which was about his neck, and
tried to save himself, making his death
slow and painful Vinegar followed, and
died without a struggle. Kings death was
also speedy. During the pro gress of the
execution, the Atchison, Topeka and Santa
Fe midnight passenger train, which passed
under the bridge at the south end, came in,
and passengers alighting for Lawrence were
held by the mob until the job was finished
The bodies mere cut down at about o'clock
this morning and placed in the Jail yard.

The best medical practitioners freely ad- init the impotency of drugs when arrayed against the formidable complications that re- suit from nervous prostration and which arises from want of proper food in requi- site quantity to feed the nervous tissue. Those exposed to the intense mental strain of business activity, together with those en- gagged in intellectual pursuits, constitute aclass that are not properly fed, in the average case the brain being requifed to do the greater part of their work. The nervous tissue not being supplied with proper nourishment to supply it's waste resulting from vital activity, the whole physical system becomes necessa- rily deranged and enfeebled. This particu- lar disease is usually functional in charac- ter, and hence curable by supplying the de- ficiency with concentrated semi digested brain and nerve foods. Of this class of foods The Blanchard concentrated semi-digested foods from beef and wheat are the oldest and most reliable. Write for free pamphlet. Address THE BLANCHARD MF'G Go. (Food dep't),
