Sweetheart.

Ey1IL PARTICULARS OF THE
BLOODT DEED.
Hich Hill Herald.

Hich Hill Herald.
One of the bloodiest and most
atrocious crimes that has ever black
ened the history of this part of the
country, was perpetrated last evening
lust over the Kansas line in Linn
county.
Our informant, who witnessed the
dead body OF the victim and fiend
| who murdered her, states that, in
company with his brother, he was
driving to Sprague from Mound
| City. and when near the scene OF the
horrible deed. saw several excited
men running across the fields in
pursuit OF man who, from all ap-
pearances, was attempting to escape.
Upon gong to the house, they
saw lying on a board the remains of
a young girl, whose BODY had been
literally perforated with bullets and
the left side of her head and face
clubbed to Jelly.
The particulars. as near as could
be ascertaned, were these: Frank
Lyle, a young man about 22 years
OF age, recently from Virginia, has
been paying attentions to a young
lady by the name Of Minnie Crimes,
probably is years of age, who did
not reciprocate his devotions, she
caring more for one VIM. Scott who
called on her Sunday evening. Ii
seems that this fact caused Lyle to
become jealous of Minnie, which
finally led to his taking her life.
About half past + O'Clock last
evening Lyle went to the home OF
Miss Crimes and inquired If she
was in. He was informed that she
had not yet returned. having gonet to
the house of a nelghbor by the name
of Spencer on an Grand. He did
not wait her return, but left in a
hurry across the fields to Spencer's,
when he met the girl at the gate,
and, without a word OF warning,
drew a revolver and fred seventeen
shots into her body. After shooting
her he dubbed her face to a jelly
and left her lying on the ground.
He started across the fields, but was
captured by neIghbors who were at
work IN the field, his hands bound
behind HIM, and, when seen by our
informant, was lying on his left side
with six or eight vigilants over him
with guns. Parties were bringing a
rope with which they doubtless made
way with the fiend. which he so
uchly deserved. Our informant
states when he asked one OF the
vlgliants II they proposed to wait till
dark before they strung him up, he
remarked that they didn't expect to
wait minute.
When our informant saw a man
coming with a rope, and not desirous
OF Witnessing a scene soon to be
enacted, started off and drove on to
Hume. He stated that the murderer
was without doubt hanged within a
few minutes after he left the bloody
scene.

Mr.. Yerkes' Trouble.

Chicago, June lO.-Mr. Yerkes, the
president OF the North Chicago City
Railway. left for Philadelphia yester-
day afternoon. Concerning the ex.
pose of his Philadelphia career, he
said yesterday according to the Daily
News: II don't care much about il.
The fact is 1 have read all the Daily
News story before. Ii reflects more
on Philadelphia than on me; they
have loose way of doing business
there" Before his departure Yerke-
had a long conference with Mayor
Harrison, and left at the latter's office
an agreement not to operate the cables
on North State street IL a majority OF
the property owners object Concern
ing this document, the News says:
What can Mayor Harrison place in
an agreement signed by an ex-convict
who to secure his release from the
Eastern PenItentiary of Pennsylvania
denied his own affidavits? 1t seems
about time to reiterate to the mayor OF
Chicago that man Is known by the
company he keeps A st. Paul man
here, who has known Mr.. Yerkes for
many years, and has business relations
with him, says that the publication in
the Chicago News of Mr.. Yerke's
trouble Ia rather poor example OF
journalistic enterprise, as 1t occurred
fifteen years ago and Is well known to
everyone.
