his Concord coach which was washed
away by the flood, made good the parts
missing, and On last Saturday ran it
Owe the road for the first time since it
left the shop. Chris has as good coaches
and stock as car be found on any Of the

begin running through to Deadwood in
a day returning the next. This will
give an impetus to travel as numerous

Pitcher Bros. on last Saturday pur-
chased three mica locations Of Mr..
Sprague which they will proceed to
develop. The mines are on the mou
tain this side Of the McMaken mine and
show better surface indications of the

continuation of the above mine, and if
SO the gentlemen have certainly secured
valuable property.

LEXINGTON, GA, May lS.-J. @. Jones,
the wife murderer, was hung to-day in the
presence ofan immense crowd Of people,
many coming q distance Of sixty miles.
Jones attempted to suicide yesterday by
opening the veins in his arm, and was
only discovered when he had lost about a
gallon Of blood. This morning becoming
stronger, the Governor telegraphed the
Sheriff to proceed with the execution.
Jones asserted that the only reason why he
killed his wife was he loved her. The
feeling against him was very bitter. 1t is
thought he would have been lynched
IL. not executed by the law. The
gallows erected was about a mile
from the Roust House in a field. Jones
was taken from jail at one o'clock and es.
corted by a guard TO the 5gallows. The
prisoner went to the scafold with great
coolness, talking with the reporters all the
way from the jail. At the scafold he ex-
planned he thoughtit no crime to take his
own life in order 10 prevent death on the
scaffold. After prayer by Rev. Gibson,
the black cap was drawn over his face. The
drop fell at half past two. He made only
a few struggles, as bis neck was broken.

dignant over the proposed petroleum oil
tax passed at Harrisburg. A formidable
remonstrance was this day circulated and
signed by leading producers irrespective
Of party.residihg here, and by prominent
citizens, setting forth that they are already
paying their full share Of the State, county
and municipal taxes in private and cor.
porate capacity, and that thisextraordinary
special tax Is contrary 10 the spirit Of
American institutions, and in the depressed
condition Of the oil regions and the fierce
competition with other oil localities 1t
would entail injury and ruin upon the pc.
troleum interests Of this State by the i'm
petus 1t would give to the oil producing in,
terest in New York and Virginia and
abroad. The remonstrance has been ior.
warded to the representatives oi the oil re-
gions at Harrisburg, who are spiritly light
ing against this measure.

A Father strips and Terribly Beats His
Four.Year.old Girl.

URBAsA, o., May lS.-A shocking case
OF brutality was unearthed in this city
Wednesday. The little child Of No.
BILE Sprague, not yet four years Of
age, fell asleep on the floor, and, be-
ing suddenly awakened, began to cry.
This enraged the father, who seized and
undressed her and pounded her OIL the
naked body until the flesh was bruised
and blackened and himself tired
with the effort. The mother, who
attempted to release her child was threat
ened with beating, and to secure her own
safety was compelled to desist. The screams
OF the child were heard by the neighbors,
who visited the house the next day and
were informed by the mother Of what had
taken place. A committee OF young men
visited the brute and warned him that any
further demonstrations against his family
would result in summary justice, at the
end Of rope il need be.
He has before this threatened and abus-
ed his wife and called her vile pames;
at one time he ordered her to
get out Of his bed and go up
stairs and sleep alone. His wife has been
driven from the house in fear OF her life
from his terrible beatings. She has here
tofore been afraid Of him, but, backed up
by public sentimeat, says hereafter she
will defend herself from his assaults.
