morning a mob of 400 armed men sur
rounded the county jail and began parley.
| ing with the Sheriff for the surrender ol
George E. Graham, the wife-murderer. The
Sheriff would not comply with their de.

the mob started out OF town on Boonville
street, Graham in their midst, Wnen
they unlocked his cell lie said :
"You can hang me; but, by Cd,
you can't scare me- They tied his hands
behind him and marched him through the
hall with rope around his neck. He was
as white as Il sheet. but never flinched.
He recovered his composure and replied
with his old audacity that when he got out
he would give them straight talk" He
was led out of the jail and placed in a
wagon and the procession moved in a
northerly direction. Acrowd OF spectators,
numbering about fifty began following,
but were halted and warned not to do 40.
Only the most daring followed, keeping in
the shadows oil fences and trees About
two miles north of the city they halted by
small scrub oak tree. Pickets were thrown
out to Keep all curious followers at a dis.
nee and preparations for the hanging
were hurriedly made. Graham was asked
ii he had anything further to say re-
garding the killing of his wife. FIX
actly what his reply was is not known.
A cloth was tied over his head and
his hands bound behind him. As the rope
was thrown over the limb OF the stunted
tree dozen strong arms dangled the body
OF the wife-murderer in mid air. He liter.
ally strangled to death. A notice was
pinned to his body saying:
We recognize the fact that our criminal
statutes are not equal to all occasions;
therefore. we resolved to remove from our
midst the worst criminal who ever infested
our county, that we might hereafter and
forever live and be without his presence
and vicious influence. We heartily vel

worthy OF it. To Sheriff Donnell: Keep

by brick wall, and on the others by an
iron chain. The Enclosure contains six
or eight tombs, with the slabs lying fat
upon them. In the foreground, connected
by a stone cross, are those Of Lafayette

he clothes his thoughts in language

though it be-are daily becoming more
astonished at the ease with which he
dashes down page after page with his

know just how many volumes his CORES

messages and documents of that kind
would make since he assumed tue office
of President. None of his predecessors
was as copious. as discussive, and
d fuse as Mr.. Cleveland. Most
of his pension vetoes, for in
stance, were written, dozen perhaps at
one sitting, and many OF them without

| to the refusal TO furnish the papers de
manded by the Senate was written in less
than one hour and a half. AS sheet after
