HIDING OUT FROM THE LYNcHERS.

RALEIGH, \. c., January 23.--[Specal. =
News has been received here of terrible
lynching at the town of Plymouth, the county
seat OF Washington county, night before last.
Tho mob, composed mainly of mounted men,
marched to the Jail and took therefrom Pat
terson Spruin. John Blount and Matthew
Blount, all colored. The doomed men were
taken to piece OF woods mile from town.
aud were tied to trees. The lynchors then
opened fire upon them with all sorts Of weap-
ons, from Winchester rifles to shotguns, and
did not cease firing till all the men we're dead
and riddled with bullets and shot This lynch
ing is the result of a very brutal murder which
was committed in the afternoon OF
the 23d of last December. While
man named Ed. Dawman, an
itinerant ieweler, was passing through
the country near the town of Creswell, four
negroes, three OF whom were those lynchcd,
met him and presently knocked him in the
head, robbed him and threw the body in n
shallow pit, where teamster discovered it,
seeing the knees sticking above the ground.
Christmas day all four men were arrested.
One confessed the crime. All were taken to
Jail at Plymouth Violence was feared as
public feeling ran very high, and special pre-
cautions were taken. The people in the sec
ton where the murder was committed, which
Is some miles from Plymouth, were partIcu-
larry stirred up, and it is probable that they
were the lynching party. Everything was
conducted quietly and with system. The men
would have been tried for their lives at the
spring term of court. The evidence against
them was regarded as conclusive, 1t is the
first;lynching in the state III many months.

Tobacco Growing in Florida.
From the Ne,C York Times.


About a year ago the Florida railway and
navigation company and the Pensacola and
Atlantic railroad company, wishing to re-
vive the tobacco industry of Florida, which
has been dead for the past twenty-five
wears, procured a quantity Of Havana to-
bacco seed and distributed it throughout
the state from Pensacola to Jacksonville,
but more particularly through the southern
part About the same time syndicate of
New Workers began to look into the mat
ter, and Sept 81 1907, were Incorporated,
with a paid up capital of 100000,
under the state laws Of Florida, as
1.-THE Florida tobacco producing and
trading company" NJ. Oppenheimer was
elected president, H. a. Banning, first vice
president; George F. Laoatut, second vice
president Fl. r. KreLschmar, secretary, and
Peter Miller, treasurer The company set
out thousand acres as an experiment in
two kinds of Havana, and two kinds Of
Sumatra, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Con-
necticut, and the old Florida broad-lenf to-
baccos. 1t has been found that all of these
grow very luxuriantly, and will average at
least 600 pounds to the acre, while some Of
the varieties, it is said, will yield from
600 to l.5OO pounds. The headquarters
and plantations are at Quincy, $50 miles
west of Jacksonville.
"Of course it is somewhat Of an expert
ment," said Mr.. Kretschmar, but 1t is so
far advanced now that we are all but posi-
tive that it will be the biggest kind Of a
success. The first settings will begin TO
ripen about July /. II will be big thing
for Florida, for since the war the raising OF
cotton has been the leading industry Of that
STATE, and now the ow price Of So cents
per pound is barely sufficient to pay for the
raising and baling, while on tobacco there
is an excellent profit Altogether there are
only 3, 1000 acres of tobacco land under cult
walton in the northern part Of the state, but
believe in a very few years this will be
increased to 900 acres"

Mntarmelons VS.. eeer.
From the Americus (Ga) Recorder.

From the AnlertcW (SdO Hecorder
"ru tell you one thing said promi-
nent saloonist yesterday, "watermelons
have injured the beer trade with me. My
beer sales for the past two weeks, since the
watermelon season begun, have been much
less than they were up TO that time. When
a man eats watermelon he is too full TO
want anything else for awhile. There have
been SO many melons sold here that IL has
necessarily injured the beer business. It's
my opinion that people would be much
healthier il they would drink beer instead
of eating watermelons.n
