HANGED TO A TREE
On the Main Road by Mob ofFifty Armed
Men,

On the Main Road by Mob ofFifty Armed
Men.
DEXTER, No, March 5.-Four fully
disguised and heavily armed men went
to the Jail at Bloomfield and knocked at
Sheriff Barham's door, who opened it,
asking: who's there?" He was COW
cred by guns and ordered to give up the
keys to Murderer Amos Millers cell.
He argued and pleaded with the men,
but under threats of instant death he
told the men where the keys We're; then,
at the front of a revolver, went up stairs
and opened the cell. Miller was taken
out, rope was thrown over his head
and he was hurried out of town three
quarters of a mile south and hanged to
tree on the main road.
Only one man besides Sheriff Barham
saw the party in Bloomfield, and he says
fully fifty men were i'll the mob. Their
victim was carried out without a sound,
and it was unknown until the sheriff
sent out word of what had happened.
The sheriff states that he was completely
taken by surprise, as he was expecting
guards to come to the Jail to watch the
prisoner.
The murderer was left hanging until
8 o'clock next morning, when the cor
oner cut his body down, held an inquest
and delivered the body to Miller'a
friends.
This is the last chapter in the Dexter
tragedy. Officials are investigating
and if the members of the mob are ap-
pretended it will go hard with them.
All is quiet now.

Victims OF Their own Greed.

ST. LOUIS, March 5,-Fire in the store
of Marcus and Abraham Cohen, on
Chouteau avenue, was followed by an
explosion, blowing out the front of the
store. The police and fremen found
Marcus horribly burned and removed
him to hospital, where he died Abra-
ham was found charred beyond recOgni-
ton on the floor of the store after the
fire was quenched. Mrs. Marcus Cohen
and three children were removed from
rooms above uninjured. Inquiry shows
the men had removed most of the stock,
then turned on the gas and opened a
gasoline can. Before leaving, however,
one inadvertently. it is thought, lighted
match. The explosion followed and
the men We're hoisted with their own
petard and died victims of their own
criminality. The insurance for which
the men lost their lives was $500.

THE FAIR SLAYER
OF MEMPHIS AN EXTRAORDINARILY
SANE PERSON

IT She Is Not Crasy-speaks of Her Victim
with the Tenderest Affection, Express
ing Profound Sorrow at Having Lost
Her Love.
MEMPHIS, March j.-If Alice Mitchell
is not crazy she is most extraordinary
sane person. From the time of her ar
rest to the release of Lille johnson, hel
co-defendant and roommate at the Jail
she was very quiet, seeming to care alb
solutely nothing about the killing of
Freda Ward or the probable conse-
quences to herself. She was not especi-
ally atfectionate toward Lille, though
perfectly friendly, but when Lille was
admitted to bail and was On the eve of
leaving the Jail for her home, Alice be-
came violently agitated by the thought
of the loss she was about to sustain. She
frantically embraced Lille and covered
her face with kisses, and even extended
similar caresses to the father of her com.
panion, who was there to take his
daughter away. But after Lilies de-
parture she speedily regained her com
posure and now appears to be as well
content alone as she was before. AT
times she speaks of her victim with the
tenderest affection, expressing her pro-
foundest sorrow at having lost her love,
but never a word of regret for having
ruthlessly slaughtered her. She has cut
out of the newspapers all the pictures OF
Freda and frequently kisses and talks to
them as if they were the original. In a
different mood she does some art work
herself, having a considerable talent for
drawing. Among her productions are
sketches of the scenes in the criminal
courtroom during her three appearances
there as a prisoner at the bar, including
portraits of the judge, the attorney-gen-
eral and her own counsel.

and affectionate. May the sorrowful

God has taken him where he will
suffer no more pain, sickness MOI

A more delightful climate we
never enjoyed. This portion OF Texas
being in the health-belt Of the
United States, located by agents
from England, makes it a great resort
for invalids, especially those with
pulmonary diseases. 1t is claimed
that those who come here before the
disease is too far advanced, find the
climate effects a permanent cure.
The country is now looking beau
tiful. Fruit trees and roses are all
in full bloom. Washington's birthday
and Arbor Day we're celebrated to-
gether. Appropriate exercises by
| all the schools and there were a great
many visitors. The schools here
will compare with the best city
schools in the older States. Our
superintendent is thoroughly educa-
ted in six different languages and
will employ none but the very best
teachers who are examined by a
"Board of Examiners appointed
by the State Superintendent. The
examinations are very rigid.
A great many excursion trains
have passed through here this week
en- route to the City of Mexico and
California. The excursionists were
from New York, Massachusetts,, New
Jersey and Minnesota principally.
This country may appropriately
be called beautiful Sunny South

Although there have been some
