A Man Who Was Almost Lynched Tells
How He Felt.
Ohio Stat Journal.

DftSN '-N'f~~ vN'''''N''
There are several prisoners in the pepi-
Tertiary who know only too we'll what it is
to be drawn up slowly by a rope around
their recks for q time. Several Of these
were called and related some OF their THRILL
iag experiences for the benefit of the STATE
Journal ard othera The most interesting
casa was that of Frank B. Mason, the ps-
roled prisoner who was brought from Wess
Virginia last week by Mr.. Chevringtcn.
It will bs remembered that ne was
strung up three times by e mob in the
wilds Of West Virginia. abaut forty miles
from any railroad. H. was suspected Of
stealing S43 from a store in CslhOan coun-
ty, ard was captured in Roans county by
8 ''posssn Of horseme1, who levelei their
guns on him Just as he was entering a
cornfeld. He was then subjected to va
riety OF inhuman treatment, which would
make a Hercules ebudIer, with view to
ma King him confesa.
He said: AT dusk ] was taken Out of
thu Jail to beech tree about fifty rods
away. They threw the rope over limb
and swuug me eff over little embark
ment The pain at frat was terrible, but
soon stars & Jted btf re my eyes. There
were more than a million Of them, it
seemed to me, moving in every dire ction.

friends cut him down again I thought
all the time that they intended TO hang me
for good, and sent a farewell word 10 my
mother. thought they would hang me
if confessed. After this they bound NE
tightly with ropes and tgok me five miles
in the rain. Theropes we're contracted by
the water go much that they left black and
blue print all over my body and arms"
Mason was sent up from Noble county
on a seven-year sentence for burglary and
was parcled April 2s, 1888. Deputy

Novel Plan of Advertising.
N,tC York Xdil.

Several merchant tailors in the neigh.
borhood of the postcfics have novel plan
for advertising their goods. They have a
man employed to stand in fronS of their
place of business to give out samples of
cloth. The samples are about one inch
square and are pasted on small clip, on
the reverse side of which is printed their
guarantee and prices. The latter as
quoted are very low, and as the sample
goods sie specially selected, the miniature
dodge attracts general attention. This
has been gOiog on for several months now
and in that time an enormous amount OF
cloth has been given away. One OF the
tailors il on street through which IL. 600
persons pass every day. The tailors say it
Is very successful advertising scheme.

RUTH'S BIRTHDAY.

v. P BGbcock in 81. Nicholas.
NY little girl is eight to-day
That is, she's Just twice tour;
Or four times two, perhsps you'll say;
And maybe that's 8 b.: tier way
To make my love seem more.
For when my pretty Ruth was two,
When she was Just half four
Il seemed as If the love knew
Had grown-Or, as she'd say, had grew
Till il could grow no more.
She was little midget then,
when she was only two
And used 10 say Dear Lord, Amen:
BreSS papa, mamma, N me AGAIN;
Twas ell the prayer she knew.
And now she's four times two! dear me,
And writes big round hand;
And when they re passed Il cup of tea
She makes her dolls eXclsim "Mercl!'
Which French dolls understand.
When eight? or two? I scarcely know
Which birthday I would choose.
At eight I'd nave, keeping her SO,
Four times as much TO love-but, Oh!
-Four times as much TO lose.
At what age did she seem most dear?
All. well, TO tell the truth,
A different blossom bloomed each year;
They all seemed sweet: but this one here,
non Know is reslly Rnth.

mere passing interest. Twelve negroes were
eft dead en- the fed.
1867 was O poor year for Miller. He
only killed ere mar; but thu provccatioE
was considerable. A man named Taylor
was irdisc.eet enough 10 strike Miller in
the head with a stone. Miller retucne5
the compliment with knife. Taylor
didn't throw stones any mere. He died.
1871 furnished Miller with tritis better
supply of scalps, but rot enough 10 come
1ea- 1865, which was the crack year. He
pursued three horse thieves from Indian
territory into Texas a2d killed them ell.
Eight years elapsed. during which it
doesn't appear that Mil ec killed apy one.
But in 1879 he killed, or is supposed to
have killed, Mathew Fletcher on his
(Mille1's) farm, near Jimtown. For this
single slaughter he spent eight months IN
Jail. which he regarded a hard fate. He
was acquitted in the end, however, and
THE restored his o5fider CO in the justice
do!sd cut by Judge and jury in his native
land.
1t is owing to the captains natural
daiicacy that the names OF MS next three
victims Killed in the Indian country ale
not forthcoming. There is something
touching in his reason foT not letting their
names be known. He said thGt tie muir
dereG nen hal grown children In that
country, and he didn't care to have the
matter resurrected.
AN INDIAN KILLED.
In 1886 he let toe lie Ou5 Of a youpg
Choctsw in his (Mille1'r) house. He said,
however, that this WAS al accident; tie
Ctoctaw was drunk and draw q pistol.
Miller tried to wrench it out of his hand
and it WIS discharged. The eingniar fat
is that it was always the other fellow who
was killed.
One would suppose this record to be quite
sufficient fer one man without passing
th ough two wars. Miller, however, hsd
the honor to serve in tia Mex can war in
the regiment of Col. Jefferson Davis, and
fought at Or;zaba ard Monterey and the
city of Mexico. After the war ne do some
Indian fighting to keep in practice.
In the civil war he spilled blood tt VII

Thirty bleeding, gaping wounds to dream

Such is the record of Capt. John Miller,
Of Iadian territory.
But the bloody record is now closed with
the blood Of Capt. Mi Ter himself. After
