TWO WEST VIRGINIA MURDERgRs sUM-
MARILY DISPOSED OF BY MOB.

CHARLESTON. w. Va, May L.
Upon arriving at ST. Adams at late
hour last night, Scott and Brownlow
Hill were hanged on an elm-tree 3
mile west Of the town by mob of 500
men, who were unmssked. The mob
captured the Hill boys frem the guard
at the hotel, took them to the place
named, fastened a half inch cotton
cord around their necks, threw the
other end over q convenient limb, sent
for Rev. Mr.. Stump, who questioned
the desperadoes as to their crimes
Scott Hill confessed that he and Jack
Dodson last Saturday night visited
the home of ex,Sberlff Atkins Of
Roone county, demanded bis money,
and were refused. Hill then shot
him AID left him for dead. The two
robbers went to Spurlock's residence,
on Main Mud river. On Monday
Dodson was left. The two Hills and
Spurlock visited Woods residence,
where they expected to secure $4,000.
They BACKED their faces, entered the
house, and demanded money, but
were rafused. One of the robbers was
knocked down by old man Woods,
who was shot three times. The rob-
bers we're then shot at several times
by Miss WoOd', who had been attrac-
ted to her fathers room. The Williams
could not stand the fire, and fed.
They saw young Woods going across
the field and believed that he was sf-
ter help. Scott Hill said be shot at
young Woods fifty yards away, where
he was found few hours later. Young
Woods was dead with bullet through
his heart and a wound in the arm. Al.
ter the confession Rev. Mr.. Stump was
asked to pray.
When the religious services were
over, stout men took hold of the
ropes and pulled the bodies Of the
two Hills three feet clear from the
ground and fastened the ropes. They
returned to the village, leaving the
bodies dangling in the air-a warn.
Jog 10 evi doors. The bodies were
left hanging two or three hours, and
were then cut down, taken to the
village, and placed in an undertaking
establishment, where they were view.
ell by hundreds Of people to-day.
The mob was orderly. Spurlcck was
rescued from the mob aud brought TO
this city tbi, morning, where be is In
jail. Much excitement prevails here
aud IN St. Alband, and 1t Is feared
that q mob will make an effort 10 rske
him out TO night and hang him. The
officer who brought him here, together
with the prisoner, walked twenty
miles to reSch the jill. SpurlOck's
confession is Substantially the same
as Scott Hills, but be adds that be
did part of the shooting. The band
is composed Of over one hundred
members, who are sworn to protect
each other. He Gays that the Hills

Causes of NERVOUSNESS.

The maladies which above all others cause nery-
business, dyspepsia, bi1iousness and constips-
ton. The great sympathetic nerve which connects
the epigastrc region with the brain, is always nju-
rously affected if the stomach aad bowels dis
ordered a permanent arrangement of the functions
Of those organs reacts by sympathy upon the entire
nervous system. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters in
restoring tone and regularity to the digestive appa-
ratus, and overcoming constipation, permanently
remedy the nervous complaints which originate in
alimentary weakness or disturbances. They are
the very best nervine that can be used. BY eradi-
eating the exciting causes of nervous weakness,
they permanently overcome the disability itsof.
But this not all. BY checking the maladies which
cause nervousness, they build up anew the system
weakened and depleted by nervous disease.

AS Important as Some Others.

From the New E0FK SUBJ
A new society was discovered by a
Williamsburg policeman yesterday. On
one of the dumps at tbe Wallabout basin
he noticed an excavation. As he slipped
down into it his curiosity WAC excited by
hearing voices. R9aching the bottom he
found door in the embankment, and
opening it he found a cave ia which
were three men seated about stove,
smoking and chatting. He thoughtthey
were tramps, and, on saluting them as
such, he was informed that they were the
foremen Of a gang Of pickers-a class of
men who search the dumps for such az
ticles as may be carried there with the
city refuse. "We're here to catch the
FIRST cart, they said, "and keep strange
picl1ers away. This is GUY week on.
There's little company OF us, and we
call it our society. Every dump has its
society. You just try end see if you can
pick anything off dump without be-
longing to the society that watches it. -

Not all the buds, unfolding to the light,
Hold fruitful germs, een while they sweetly bear
The fragrance of full promise on the air,
Aud glow with beauty till the coming night.
But in the morn, revealed unto sight,

Scattered 70 dust by every passing breeze
Unknown, unheeded in their early blight
So Will desire oft kindle in the breast
The flame of hope, which thought and teehng teeC

For life has claimed the souls best sacrlhce.
