The Hellish Work of a Brute

trated on white woman named
Waters reached here this afternoon
The dastardly deed is one of the most
atrocious ever known. This morning
four miles from Central, in Pickens
County, an unknown negro entered
the house of Mrs. Waters, slipped
moose over her head, choked her and
dragged her into the woods some dis
tance from the house. There he kept
her from s o'clock until noon and left
her in a terrible condition.
The entire country near Central IS
in state OF frenZied excitement and
parties are securing the country for
the negro, who was armed with shot
gun. Information has been sent out
to all the neighboring towns asking
that a lookout be kept for the negro
and he will probably be captured.
Judge Lynch will then unquestlonably
hold court.-Columbi Register.

The Indian Messiah.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 29.-John L.
Mayhugh, until recently special CEN
sus agent OF the Indians for Nevada. has
written to the Indian Bureau on the
subject of the coming of the Indian Mes
siah. In the letter he says: The pro-
phet resides in Mason Valley. Esmer-
ALTA County, Nevada, close to the Wal
ker River reservation. His name is not
johnson Sides at Reno, but CAPTAIN
Jack Wilson, and is known among all
the Indians by the Indian names OF
We-vo-kar and Co-we-lo. He is an in
telligent, fine looking Indian, about 33
years of age. who goes into seeming
trances-and seemingly so from twelve
to fourteen hours-in the presence OF a
large number of Indians.
Upon the invitation Of the prophet.
upon his recovery he related to them he
had been to heaven and that the Mes
siad is coming to the earth again and will
put the Indians in possession of this
country; that he has seen in heaven a
heap of Indians, some ofwhom are dres-
sed in white mans clothes. He coun-
sells the Indians not no disturb the white
folks, saying that the blanket or rabbit
skin that was put over the moon by the
Indians long ago will soon fall off and
the moon, which is now a-irc, will des-
troy the whites.
The Messiah is to appear on Mount
Grant, which is very large mountain
held by the Indians to be sacred and
situated about sixteen miles South of
the Walker River agency buildings and
On the Vest side Of the Lake. Here is
where the first Indians appeared, accord
ing to Indian tradition. Maylugh says
he understands the various tribes expect
to send delegations TO this mountain,
and he recommends they be allowed to
visit the mountain to see for themselves
what truth there is in the prophecy"

Life and Property Lost by Fire.

DETROIT, Dec 3-The line-cut depart
ment of the Scotten tobacco works were
destroyed by fire early this morning.
The factory is valued at $4,000. The
stock is also a total loss, but the value
is unknown. Two firemen were killed
and two injured. The snow rendered it
difficult for the engines to reach the fire.
The blaze spread rapidly and in three
quarters of an hour the whole side OF
the building on Campus street was in
flames. At this time, while the tiremen
were at work on the Fort street side.
the corner on the front side began fall
ing and orders were given to fall back.
It was too late, however, and ilremen
Robinson and Caughlin were killed by
the terrible rain of bricks. About 600
girls will be thrown out Of employment

Stirring Times.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3.-Republican
senators have been in caucus for an
hour and a half, engaged in the consider
alton of the order OF business. The main
topic of discussion was the national elec-
ton bill. Friends Of this measure re-
called to their felloW-senators the i'm
piled pledge given at the caucus last ses-
sion, that the bill, if allowed to go over
until the reassembling of congress,
would be taken up and passed without
the intervention of other business.
They urged that the time had come to
redeem that pledge and that the senate
should at once proceed to the consider
alton of the bill
Certain senators, who have in the past
been set down as opponents of the cleo
ton bill, or who, at least, were supposed
to be lukeWarm in its support, objected
not to the general principle of the bill
itself, but to the adoption of a policy
that in their judgment, would probably
result in blocking all other important
legislation during the remainder of this
congress, without the guarantee of a sue
cessful termination of the attempt to
pass the election bill. Several western
Senators, however, insisted that with a
proper spirit of determination on the
part of the majority the the bill couldb be
passed.
The probabilities of the Republicans
having quorum of their own members
entered largely into the discussion, and
the majority were sangrline that they
could secure afull attendance of the
members if necessary. Several of those
present, when asked if it had been de-
cided that an opporionment bill should
be passed, said that no decision was
reached, but each one personally insist
ed that the bill would unquestlonably

AlESSON BY JUDGE LYNCH.
Lone Women Must DE as Safe rs II a Resi-
ment Surrounded Them.


GEEENvILLE, Dec. 3.-Riddled with
bullets and left in the woods to die a
lingering death is the death Judge Lynch
decreed to Henry Johnson. alias Henry
WHISKY, colored, four miles from Central,
in Pickens County, this morning before
daylight.
On Monday the quiet little town Of
Central was excited by brutal outrage
perpetrated upon Mrs. Thos. Walters,
wife of a white farmer living four miles
from Central. The outrage was one of
the most horrible ever known. While
busy at work in her home Mrs. Walters,
who is a handsome young woman, 20
years old, was frightened by a gun be-
ing placed at her head by an unknown
negro, and the command, Don't move,
or I'll kill you" Throwing a rope over
her head the negro led her from the
house like a COW into the woods some
distance away She kept up continual
scream, but her husband was mile a
way working in "a saw mill, and thenear-
est neighbor lived long ways Off. The
negro pulled the terrified woman over
bushes and through brambles until he
reached a secluded spot, where, after the
most cruel and outrageous treatment, he
threatened to kill her, but she begged
piteously, and the william went away and
left her.
AS soon as she could she hurried to
neighbor's house and told the terrible
story. The entire section of country
was aroused and parties searched every
where. Johnson was captured yester-
day afternoon at the Richland trestle on
the Air Line Road, and last night was
taken before Mrs. Walters, who at once
recognized him.
Fifty determined men had gathered
and notwithstanding Johnson's appeals,
he was silently marched away and four
minutes afterward fifty or hundred
shots rang out on the early morning air.
and testified that horrible crime had
been avenged.
A reporter visited the scene of the
lynching. No one acknowledged know
ing anything of the disposition made of
Johnson, search revealed the spot where
he had been tied to a tree, and in the
woods the brute was found dying a
brute's death. The mob had evidently
left him for dead, but he had recovered
sufficiently to crawl further into the
woods. He lay in pool Of sweltering'
blood, and occasionally an agonized
moan escaped his lips. TIE body was
terribly mangled The lett eyewas shot
out, and load of shot had entered the
left ear. All over his body bullet
wounds were visible. No one dared to
offer assistance, and the negro was dy-
ing when the reporter left.
No sentimental placard was placed on
the body, but it lay there an impressive
lesson that the women of the country
will be protected.
Mrs. Walters still shows signs of the
terrible treatment she received. Her
eyes are red and swollen, and q blue
mark shows on her neck.
Public sentiment justities the horrible
death meted out. Johnson has proba-
bly, been guilty Of simular crimes, as he
told Mrs. Walters that she was not the
first white woman who had been his vic
tim.
He recently served two years in the
State Penitentiary for an attempted as
sault on colored girl.--News and Cou-

Mind Reading as a "Trick, u

ANN ARBoR, Mich, Nov. 27.-Prof.
Charles E. Gatchel Of the Homeopathic
Department pronounces mind-reading a
''fake," and was in Chicago last Fall
when P. Alexander tombstone, the mind
reader, did his feats. Prof. Gatchel
studied the matter thoroughly, and
finally concluded that he could do the
same :'tricks." as he calls them. He
then posted $500 with a Chicago paper,
to be forfeited to charity if he failed if
Mr.. Johnstone would do the same, but
the latter did not see fit to accept the Of
fer.
This afternoon Prof. Gatchel did john
stones great feat of driving livery
team on dead run through number
of streets over which the committee had
previously driven. The first thing done
was to decide on word to be taken
from Webster's Dictionary, and the COM
mlttee decided on ':mucilage." A team
was driven over route thirteen blocks
long, The committee then blindfoIded
Prof. Gatchel, drawing a thick hood
over his head and tying it close around
the neck. Everything being ready, the
professor and committee jumped into
the carriage. Gatchel took the lines
and drove the horses on run, first turn
ing one way and then the other, follow
ing the route taken by the committee.
One of the committee asked if he could
not drive little slower but he said:
I'VE mind readers all drive this way"
and lashcd the horses into ataster run.
On reaching the Office selected he
went to the Dictionary, turned, after
little hesitation, to the right place and
calling for paper and pencil wrote the
word ..mucilage."

A Very Bold Robbery.

MILWAUKEE, Nov. 26.-Wm. Clark,
owner of the electric light plant. came
to Milwaukee to-day and drew $4,000
from the bank to pay bills. He paid
out about six thousand dollars and was
on his way to take the train home to-
night with the rest of the money in a
satchel. When near the depot he was
knocked down by two men who had
evidently followed him, and who got
away with the money, about $4,000.

GORMAN AS A PROPHET.
The Maryland Senator Says the Force
Ri1l VIII Pass

The Maryland Senator Says the Force
Bill VIII Pass.
WASHINGTON, November 27.-Sen-
ator Gorman's opinion that the Republi-
can Senators will try to push the force
bill through as quickly as possible after
the Senate meets is generally regarded
here as we'll founded only to the extent
that the bill will be taken upvery prompt
ly.
Mr.. German ought to know, for he
represented the minority in the d;cker
with Quay and the finance committee,
which resulted in limiting debate on the
tariff bill, the passage Of that measure,
and the postponement of the force bill.
II was distinctly understood by the
parties to that dicker that the force bill
would be taken up in December, and it
was in order to stave off until then the
expected bitter fight over the bill that
the agreement was made. The force
bill was believed by a good many close
observers to be doomed measure before
the elections.
Mr.. Germans implied fear that it
will become a law is shared by very few
persons now. That force bill will pass
the Senate this winter is not very I'M
probable, but, while it will contain the
essential features of the House bill, 1t
will be greatly changed from the meas
ure which was forced through under the
Reed rules. 1t will, therefore, have to
90 back to the House for that body's
action upon the amendments, and It's
opponents are confndent that it will
he -irnpoeoiblo to hold Republican
quorum there long enough to accept the
Senate amendments. They believe that
the only way to get force bill on the
statute book this winter will be for the
Senate to take the bill just as it same
from the House, without the change ola
word or letter.
Nobody believes the Senate will do
that. 1t can be done only by such re-
volutionary methods as have never yet
been seen in the upper house Of Con-
gress. There was some wild talk OF
absolutely ignoring the Democratic
Senators and putting the force bill
through last summer. but it amounted
to nothing. Mr.. Spooner was credited
with desire to see the bill railroaded
through in some such way, but the
Wisconsin Senator since then has re-
ceived very emphatic idtimation that
his constituents do not fancy that sort OF
thing.
Mr.. Ingalls, IS the only Senator who is
regarded as entirely capable Of taking
the lead IN such revolutionary proceed
ing. He would have to act as presiding
officer, and he would need all the nerve
he is supposed to have to absolutely re-
fuse to see or hear the protesting DEM
ocrats. But Mr.. ingalls, will be kept
busy during the next six weeks in try
ing to be returned to the Senate from a
State which has repudiated him. After
that he may have no incentive to act as
leader Of the Republican revolutlonlsts,
and if he had it would be too late in the
session to carry out the scheme.
Mr.. Goaman's prediction that the
Democrats will defeat the torce bill un-
less the Vice President and the Repubii-
can majority adopt Reeds methods
rests upon very substantial tounda-
tion.-New York Times

A cereful review Of financial legisla-
ton by congress for the past quarter of
century, together with the disregard
manifested by that body to the just and
urgent demands of the people for fin
ancial relief, has fixed upon the public
mind the alarming apprehension that
the seductive hand of monopoliStic and
corporate power has lifted the Ameri-
can congress to the dangerous eminence
from which they can no longer hear

But the decree has gone forth that
this dangerous and threatening state

WAsHIsGror, Jan. 7.-Secretary
Window has received an opinion from
the Attorney General on the subject of
longevity pay, which is of considerable
intarest to the army generally. 1t is
in effect that the recent decision of the
United States Supreme Court thst cadet
service at the Military Academy should
be counted in computing longevity pay
cannot be made to apply to cases which
have been settled by the Accounting
Oaicer of the Treasury. Notwithstanding
they were settled without making
allowance for cadet service. This
opinion is based upon the application Of
Captain John w. Pullmanlof the Quar-
termsstsr's Department to Second Con
troller Gllkerson for the reopening of his
case, so that he might be allowed the
benefit Of the decision of the Supreme
Court. A large number of similar
claims were filed, amounting to nearly
81, 200, 900. Under the Attorney-Gen-
erals opinion these cases, having once
been settled, are at an end, aud cannot
be opened.

message was transmitted to the Legis-

the paper is devoted to the matter Of
electoral reform. He says the present
laws do not reach the two great evils
which now attend elections-intimida-
tion and corruption. He recommends
the adoption of a secret compartment
system, 8 general registration at all
elections throughout the entire State,
and sprovisions for both official and
unofficial ballots. He also expresses the
opinion that the people of the
State do not favor prohibition
amendment to the Constitution. He
urges strong efforts to secure the Worlds
FaiT for New York city. and says that
the State is substantially out of debt.
