Special to the News.
PHILLIPsBURG, Kas.. Sept. GA
strange negro has been seen about
here for several weeks, a wild look
ing fellow, braWny and large and
black as a coal. He did not stay a
bout long, suddenly disappearing and
reappearing in three or four days, as
if by magic. He was called Black
Jack by the townspeople, an appella-
ton which he did not resent.
Last evening while a party of young
| people were driving along the road
ten miles north of Phillipsburg they
heard loud cries in the neighbOrhOod
| Of a large bunch of trees, planted
years ago as a Wind-break. The cries
! we're repeated several times.befOre the
party paid much attention to them,
/ when one of the young men Of the
/ party, Arthur Wlnrams proposed that
/ all of the boys go over and Investigate
/ the trouble.
The young ladies were left behind
/ and the boys Crept up to the place.
! When within a few feet of the break
! firing was commenced on them. The
! bows at once fell fiat on the ground
! and remained still. In another in
slant the burly black Jack burst out
Of the timber and ran across the road
/ and was lost to view. The frighten-
ed young men, seeing the negro had
/ gone, got up and went into the woods
whence the cries were still coming.
/ They found three white girls bound
/ to trees, half naked and apparently
crazy.
One Of them had her ears cut of
and was bleeding from the wounds.
The girls were wholly unknown IN
that locality and could not be identi-
fed
One of them had a letter on her
/ person addressed to Miss Blanch
| Bleaching, Beatrice, Neb. The girl
whose ears were mangled, died before
midnight Of exhaustion, and the hYes
of the others are feared.
TERRIBLY CUT.
Their throats and breasts bear the
marks Of the brute's claws, and then
bodies were cut and bruised IN many
/ places.
The black man is said to have
had a cabin built IN the break Ii
which he lived, and a man who has
Investigated thinks be has found the
trace of rough graves In which the
negro has put half dead victims be-
fore now.
The negro watched his victims II
fiend1sh glee, and their screams OF
anguish seemed to have effect strains
of sweet music on his ear. WheI
they would cease to moan he WoulC
Give one of them another vicious dig
with his knife or pound their bruised
J and lacefated bodies. Search IS be
/ ing made for the negro now by al
organized band of Bersuers.
I A crowd Of farmers has been search
/ ing all day and and all night, but NJ
/ trace of Black Jack can be found
/ He will be hanged If caught, but 1t i
thought that he has made good hl
escape

PROPELLED BY TURTLES.


A Traveller Teiis Ahuut the Strnnge,t

Harry lockwood, u young man who
has been around the globe more than
once, was telling some acquaintances
about his travels in tho Richclieu last
evening. Some ono asked him what
was the strangcst sight he had sccn.
THAT is hard question TO answer"
he remarked, ''bnl think q turtle-ride
in tho Gulf of Siam was as unique as
any thing. While going over China
stopped ut Haitian, u port on the Gulf Of
Siam, and there enjoyed strange ex-
perlence. Tho natives make the i'm
mense turtles common In those ports do
service In drawing boats. They swim
rapidly, and are worth only few dol
lars pair. They are tanned easily
and thon fitted out with light
harness and reins, They are at
tached TO tho small boats with
traces rode about twenty miles one
day, tho animals being managed by the
owner OF tho boat After they were
hitched up we jumped into the boat and
the mon took up the reins and we were
oil. The animals raddlcd along evenly
and We went faster than one could row.
They are guided by long stick not un-
like ilsh-pole, and can bc handled III
easily as ponies, IT is not often tina,
any trouble is experienced, but las,
summer young man was drowned.
just as he was starting out from Haitian
his stick broke, and insteal OF coming
back then he went out TO sea. thinking
that no could guide tho turtles by the
reins lie would pull up the reins until
he upset tho animals, but thoy would
soon regain tho use OF their fiippers and
20 right ahead for the open sea. A
tho last resort he cut the traces and let
his harness and steods 60. But he was
so far from shore that he pcrished be-
