a Montana Desperate Hanged by Mob
at Miles Clty-The Town Partially De-
stroyed by Incendinries.
ST. PAUL, MINI, July D.
A Miles City special says that party OF
masked men proceeded to the County jan
Yesterday, overpowered the Jailer, ana
seized man named Rigney whom they
took about a mile out of town and hanged
to the projecting end of railroad tie over
a culvert. Rigney had been jailed the day
before for disorderly conduct, and bore
reputation as hard citizen; having been
accused of robbery and other crimes. he
was bartender in the saloon OF the
Cosmopolitan Theater. Two hours
after he was hung the theater
burst into flames, and was COM
pletely destroyed, with six other build
ings, among which was large drug store.
The progress of the fire was arrested by
the brick building of the First National
Bank. otherwise the entire block would have
been destroyed. The total loss is estimated
at $4,000. 1t is generally thought thatth9
fire was the work OF an incendiary, in re-
taliation for the hanging of Rigney.
LATER DETAILS OF THE LYNCHING.
Later advices from Miles City show that
the fire occurred first and the lynching af-
terward. The fire broke out in the Cosmo-
politan Theater, which was in a mass of
flames nearly as soon as discovered. Next
the flames fell upon row of three small
buildings, occupied by Marrill as a lunch
counter. Browns. tobacco store and Bish-
ops board saloon. These were totally
consumed. The fire quickly spread to the
next building, which was known as Flick's
Hall, owned by Charles Bishop. This
building, being of pine logs, gave out a
great heat. and the fire here gained so much
Strength tina the block at one time was given
up for gone. From this building it spread
to the large and handsome store OF Bisenlck
& Bros, stationery and general dealers,
and in a few moments what was magnif-
icent structure was a total wreck The
next bull ding to succumb to the flames was
the drug store of w. E. Savage & Co, a
large two-story frame building adjoining
the First National Bank. 1t was also
quickly destroyed, and by the frantic ef-
forts of the citizens the fire was here
stopped. The bank building, being of brick,
interposed as a barrier to the further ad-
vancement of the fire. The loss is estimated
at various figures, by some as high as
100000.
After the excitement of the fire was over
a party of masked and determined men
proceeded to the Jail and took therefrom
Bill Rigney, who had been incarcerated
few days before for threatening to assault
the daughters of worthy family named
Brown. He was found in the cell, and af-
ter some trouble was taken out, a rope put
around his neck and he was taken to the
railroad bridge over the Tongue River, dis.
tant about half mile, and hanged.

Uncle Ezra SAYS pa used to play tricks
on every body, ,, remarked The bad boy to
the grocery man. 81 may be mean, but
never played jokes on blind people, us
pa did when lac WAS Il boy. Uncle Ezra
SAYS once there was Il party OF four blind
vOcaliSts, all girls, gave am entertainment
III the town where pa lived, and stayed at
the hotel where pa tended bar. Another
thing, never sold rum, either, as pa did,
Well, before the blind vocalists went to
bed, pa caught a lot of frogs and put them
in the beds where the girls were to sleep,
AMI when the poor blind girls got into bed
the frogs hoped all over them, aud the
way they got out was caution. 1t Is bad
enough TO have frogs hopping all over
girls that can see, but for girls that are
deprived Of their sight, and don't know
what anything is, except by the feeling OF
it, it looks 10 me like L pretty tough joke.
! guess pa is sorry now for what he did,
cause when Uncle Ezra told the frog
story l Brought home 4 frog and put it in
pas bed. Pa has been afraid of paralysis
for years, and when his leg or anything
gets asleep, he thinks that is the end CT
him. Before bedtime ! turHed the cou-
ScrSatioa onto paralysis, aud told about
man about pas age having il on the west
side, and pa was nervous, aud soon after
lic retired guess the frog waited to get
acquainted with p2, cause pa yelled SIX
li,.ls pf p,nrlnr u,1 into Iis
room. You know how cold frog is.
Well, you'd Il dido to sec Pr. He laid
still and said his cpd lad come, aud Uncle
Ezra asked hiGl il il was the end with L
head o: the feet, and pa told him paralysis
hat; marked him for 4 victim, and he could
feel that his left leg was becoming dead.
lie said he could feel the cold, clammy
hand of death walking up him, and he
waited ma TO put Il bottle of hot water to
his feet. Ma got the bottle of hot water
and put il OH pas feet, and the cork came
out and pa said he was dead sure enough
now because be was hot in the eXtrcmitics,
and that Il cold wave WAS going up his leg.
Ma asked him where the cold was, he told
her, and she Thought she would rub il,
but she bcgau TO yell the same kind OF
murder pa did, and she said u snake had
gone up her sleeve. Then thought il
WAS time TO stop the circus, and reached
up mas lace sleeve and caught the frog
by the leg ana pulled it out, and told pa
guessed lac had taken my frog to bed with
him. and showed it TO him, and then he
said did it, and boy that would do such
q thing would go TO pcrdiiion Us sure As
preachin', and asked him ii he thought
u man who put frogs IL the beds with
blind girls, when he was i boy, would
