Charles Pratt Pays For His Diaboiical
Crime at Blair. Neb.
BLAIR, Neb., Aug. 16-IIattie Town
was probably fatally wounded and her
father instantly killed by Charles Pratt,
southwest of Kcnnard, early yesterday
morning. Pratt who worked for Town
about four years ago and who was dis
charged for making love to Hattie, went
to the house about daybreak as she was
getting breakfast While the two were
talking her father appeared, when
Pratt drew his revolver and shot him
through the heart AS the girl started
to run he shot her in the back. Pratt
was overtaken by the girls brother and
with the assistance of some farm hands
taken to Jail.
About eleven o'clock last night 100
men came to the city from the country
surrounding They were soon joined by
200 others from the city and marched
directly to the Jail
Sheriff Frank Hartman was there, to-
gether with fifteen deputies, all of whom
were armed, but they made no display
of their weapons All the lynchers were
armed with guns and revolvers.
The sheriff refused to deliver the keys
to the Jail, but the vigilantes soon over
powered the deputies who offered no re-
sistance to the invaders The crowd
then quickly made its way to the cell in
which Pratt was confined, and selling
him carried him to a wagon in which he
was taken about mile from town,
where his hands and feet were bound.
Harry Town, twenty-two-year-old
son of the murdered man, who had come
to town with the farmers, put the rope
around his neck.
Pratt was then asked If he had any
thing to say, and he replied that the
Towns had wronged him and he was
sorry he didn't kill them all. While he
was speaking someone gave the rope
pull and he died with his speech unfin-
ishad

An Unknown Mlscreant Wrecks nm E1cur-
sion Train Near Pittsburgh-severaI Per-
sons Killed.
PITTSBURGH, Pa, Aug. 16.-An at
tempt was made last night to wreck an
Atlantic City excursion train on the
Baltimore & Ohio railroad twenty miles
from this city, where the road runs
along the Youghiogheny river, thirty
feet above the water. Tho result was
tho almost total demolition OF the en-
gino and the death of two engineers and
tramp The passengers escaped with
light cuts and bruisas The killed
were:
Yankee Sullivan, of Pittsburgh, one
of the oldest engineers on the road.
Daniel Goodwin, engineer of the east
ern division, who was riding in the cab.
Unknown man, supposed to be a
tramp, riding between the tender and
baggage car.
Fireman King was painfully but not
dangerously injured.
The train, which consisted OF six
sleepers and a baggage car, was crowd
ed with excursionists bound for the sea-
shore. 1t was late in getting away from
the city, and was proceeding at rapid
pace to make up lost time. Near Os-
ceola station, an obstruction was en-
countered. There was q terrific crash,
and the engine was thrown over the
embankment The cars ran along on
the rails for fifty feet and then fell over
on the west-bound tracks, towards the
hillside.
The engine was completely wrecked.
Sullivan, Goodwin and the tramp were
crushed beneath the timbers and were
killed almost instantly. King, the fire.
man, was thrown into tree thirty feet
away.
The sleepers were not badly dam
aged. The passengers were badly
frightene
Four ties had been placed securely
between and on the rails. The work of
the wreckers was frustrated by the cars
falling on the west-bound track. II
they had followed the engine and gone
over the embankment into the river,
the loss of life would have been fright
full.
The most plausible theory advanced
as to the motive of the wreckers is that
they intended to wreck a high class
freight train which usually precedes
the Pacific express Last night, how
ever, the first section of the express
train was sent out ahead of the freight
train.

ence report. For himself, he was in
favor of the removal of the limitation
in the act granting arrears of pensions.
He did not care whether it cost 100
million dollars or one billion dollars.
Mr.. Vest spoke of the mcnstrous
abuses that had grown up under the
pension system and declared bis belief
that the present bill was being pushed
for personal and political motives. He
asserted that the pension list was Iun-
duly swollen in the state of Indiana be-
cause it was the pivotal state and its
veto was necessary to elect president
And he prophesied that the people Of

The meeting Of the democratic con-
gressional committee for the 7th dis,
trict, at Hutchinson on June 24th, de-
cided to hold the convention at Pratt
Center on August 18th, at 10 o'clock
a. m. We were present and presented
the claims of Dodge City as the proper
place to hold the convention; bat as the
western counties failed te-send dele
gate2 or proxies, We were out voted.
This should be lesson to the western
counties Of the district, as it entails
good deal Of extra expense on them
to send their delegates to the conven-
tion. If you want anything it is easy
to get it if you work for it at the right
time, and if you fail to make the pro.
per effort you have no one to blame
but yourself. The call is published in
this issue and we hope the convention
will be full one, and that it will nom-
mate the future congressman for the
7th district.
