INTERNATIONAL Up. S. c. E.
The Convention Welcomed to Montreal
by All Glasses.

The first day of the convention of
the international Young Peoples So
ciety of Christian Endeavor at Mon
treal was spent in sight seeing by the
delegates, but the officers held a bust
ness session. Five of the churches
held special prayer meetings in the
evening which were largely attended.
When the twelfth annual convention
was opened in the huge drill hall the
building was more than filed. Rev.
DIR. Clark, the father of the Y. Il. 5. G..
+. movement. led the audience in re-
peating the 23d Psalm; Rev. Z. Il.
Keene, of the Protestant Mission,
Japan, offered prayer; Rev. j. A. Me-
Gillvray welcomed the convention on
behalf of the pastors of Montreal. Then
Senator Des Jardins, mayor of Mont
real, welcomed the visitors in behalf
of the city and said that although he
was Roman Catholic and the city was
Roman Catholic none could extend a
heartier welcome. President Clarke
calico on the audience to sing "God
Save the Queen and the British and
American flags waved in union, but
when President Clarke shouted for
my Country IT'S of Thee" the APP
plause was simply deafening. Secre-
tary Bulge of The Y. NJ. c. A. also be-
spoke a welcome for the young men of
the city. Rev. DIR. 5. =. Henson, of
Chicago, replied to the addresses of
welcome and took occasion to roast
Chicago mayor-Carter Harrison-and
the local directorate of the World S
Fair for their action in opening the
fair on Sunday.
The. annual report of John Wills
Baer, general secretary of the United
Society of Christian Endeavor, shows
that New York state still leads with
2,9s5 societies. Pennsylvania is good
second, with 2,62s. Canada has 1882
societies. Ontario leads with / ,072 So
cieties. The growth in the south has
been encouraging. England has over
600 societies, Australia 525, India IL.
In all nearly a thousand societies in
foreign lands, making a grand total
enrolment for the world of 26,2s4 To-
cal societies with membership of
1,577,040. The net gain in number of
local societies in 1892, 4,sO6; and 5,276
is the forward step this last year.
San Francisco was chosen as the
place of meeting in 1895.

HANGED THE BRUTE.
A Negro RavIshes and Murders Two
Young Girls and Is Lynched.

Mary and Ruby Ray, of near Bard
well, KY, aged is and IL years respect
lively went out to pick berries. Soon
after the actions of n dog which had
accompanied them attracted the at
tention of the girls mother and she
followed him into the woods and TO a
clump of bushes where to her horror
she found the body of Mary all covered
with blood, her throat cut from ear to
ear and her clothes torn to shreds.
Sick at heart sire summoned help and
after further search found the body of
Ruby in the same condition. An eX-
animation showed that both had been
ravished in n brutal manner.
Ii was but short time before the
whole country was in arms. The
first clue was the finding of bloody
coat. Bloodhounds were procured and
they followed the scent to the cabin of
fisherman on the Mississippi. The fish
erman said he had been forced to row
a burly yellow Negro across the river.
The party also crossed and the Negro
was traced to Sikeston, Mo-, where he
was captured and identified by the
fisherman. A special train was pro-
cured and the brute taken to Bardwell
for execution. He was identified as
Levi j. Miller, a worthless fellow, and
was at once surrounded by hundreds
anxious TO help tear him to pieces.
He IS first locked in the jail and prep
arations made to burn him at the
stake. That he was not burned alive
seems to have been due TO the very
fury of the mob that killed him. En-
cited into Mysteries, the ringleaders
lost their heads and hanged him with
a chain to telegraph pole, while they
were themselves shouting Burn him. l"
John Ray, the father of the murdered
girls, with singular inconsistency,
asked that the Negro be not burned.
1t is doubtful if he knew what he was
doing he was so excited. After being
dragged from the jail the Negro was
hurried away amid cries of Burn him,
burn him, burn him, " until telegraph
pole was reached. A chain was drawn
around his neck and two men climbed
the pole with the other end of it. The
Negro was drawn up and strangled.
Someone fred a shot into his body
before he was dead. Every body was
disappointed and angry at the manner
of his death. The body was lowered
and horribly mutilated, the ears, fin
gers and other parts being cut away.
The body was then dragged 10y the
mob distance of 800 yards across the
railroad tracks and burned.
Miller had on his person ring be-
longing to one of his victims and his
knife contained hairs torn from her
head when he cut her throat. These
were identified by her father. Fully
1000 people, men, women and children,
witnessed the execution.

MADBREAK FORL LIBERTY
IONA PRISON CONvICTS SHOT
WHILE TRYING TO ESCAPE.
A Desperate Break Made for the Walls
Two Prisoners shot by the Guards Who
Displayed Much Courage.

In desperate attempt to escape from
the State House of Correction at Ionia,
Convict Oscar Milien was instantly
killed and William Eagen was mortally
wounded, G. Il. Jones had his head
cracked aud several other inmates of
the prison were more or less injured in
the tight with the guards. None of the
rs or more prisoners who Joined in the
outbreak escaped, and none of the
guards were seriously injured.
The instigators and main partici-
pants, also their crimes and terms OF
sentence, are as follows: William
Eagan, sentenced from Grand Rapids,
April Is. 1921, for Is years for man
slaughter. Charles Jones, sentenced
from Detroit, February %, 1898, for
four years for burglary. Oscar Millen,
sentenced from Detroit, June IA, 1890,
for seven years for burglary. Michael
Lynch, sentenced from Detroit, Feb
ruary 4, 1898, for three years for lar
ceny.
At the time the break was made
there were two men at work repairing
the eavestroughs, for which several
ladders were in use. The prisoners
mentioned, left their work in the shops
and made for these ladders, which were
against the north wall of the paint
shop in charge of the laborers en-
ployed by Warden Parsen to repair the
caves. The alarm was given and sew
eral guards were Immediately upon the
ground, where desperate battle was
imminent. The prisoners implicated
were known as desperate men-plac-
ing no value upon human life as COM
pared with liberty-and Il break was

jeopardy during the entire progress of
this attempted escape. The prisoners
were amply Supplied with hammers,
wrenches, and various weapons of a
deadly nature and used the same freely
upon the guards, but it was of no avail
for after n severe battle of over Is min
utcs the prisoners were overpowered
and returned to their cells.
Oscar Millen was killed outright,
being shot through the heart by
Keeper Mitchell when he was going up
q ladder. Charles Jones lies at the
point of death, receiving a blow on
the right temple, leaving him uncon-
scious from congestion of the brain.
Smith, Eagan and Lynch were badly,
though not dangerously hurt. They
were immediately placed in solitary
