| A MILKMAN NEARLY LYNCBED.
A milkman, who was overcharging for
milk this morning, narrowly escaped
lynching. Infuriated men appropriated
all his milk and distributed it among the
poor, and then drove him out of town.
| ANOTHER HUNGARIAN HUNG.
The body of a Hungarian, who was
llynched in an orchard last night, has
been recovered by his friends. The in
human monster was noticed as he cut off
four fingers of woman's hand. He
dropped the fingers into his pocket,
where they were found when he was
captured. The act maddened the men
and they took him to an orchard on the
hillside and hanged him.
DEsoLATE SIGHT.
A walk through the town revealed
desolate sight. Only about twenty-five
able. bodied men have survived and are
able to render assistance. Men and
women can be seen with black eyes,
bruised faces and cut heads. They were
injured in the flood, and since that have
not slept. Their faces have turned q
sickly yellow and dark rings surround
their eyes. Many of the women have
succumbed to nervous prostration. For
two days but little assistance could be
rendered them. The wounded remained
uncared for in some houses, cut off by
the water, and died from their injuries
alone. Some were alive on Sunday, and
their shouts could be heard by the
people on shore. A man caught steal
ing gold watch is now in the tempo-
rary jail of what is left of the town. A
shot was fred at him, but he was not
wounded. The only thing that saved
him from lynching was the smallness OF
the crowd. '#
