; The Columbia Is a Dandy,

Boston, November 13.-The United
States cruiser Columbia, which left
Cramps shipyard, Philadelphia, at II
o'clock Saturday morning, for her ofic.
ial trial trip off the Massachusetts coast,
dropped anchor in tbs harbor off South
Boston this morning.
Her run at sea was the quickest ever
made by war vessel in this co untry
beating the New York's time over two
hours.
The cruiser will remain at anchor
here all day today. Tomorrow if the
weather permits, limbering up run will
be made over the measured course be-
tween Cape Ann and Cape Porpoise
Then, after thoroughly cleaning the
boiler tubes, the men will be given an
absolute rest on Wednesday in order
that they may be fresh for the great trial
on Thursday.
1t is not the intention, however, te
make the trial unless the conditions of
the weather and wind are as near perfect
as can be. No risks will be taken, and
if necessary the ship will remain here a
week for favorable weather before going
over the course.
The average speed of the run from
Philadelphia was 1850 knots per hour.
Those on board are hopeful that %
knots or over will be made on the Official
trial which would make the Columbia
the fastest war ship in the world.

TOO HORRIBLE FOR BELIEF.
Stories of Men Tortured to Death Among
Florida Convict Camps.

TOO HORRIBLE FOR BELIEF.
Stories of Men Tortured to Death Among
Florida Convict Camps
Live Oak, Fla, November 13.-Ugly
stories reach here from Fort White con-
corning the lynching there Wednesday
night of Henry Boggs, colored, and OF
the subsequent fate of three other negroes,
all implicated in the murder of W. J.
Duncan, white, storekeeper at the
Junction, on Monday. Several persons
who have been in Lake City say that the
stories there are of such brutality that
they can be hardly believed. Boggs, it is
said, was taken from the officers, shot
and then his body was horribly mutt
lated, being shot to min cemeat almost,
with handouts still on. Another state
ment is that the mob did not wait till he
was dead to begin their barbarous work,
but cut into his flesh with long knives,
and when he cried out part of blanket
was crammed into his mouth to stop his
cries. Another statement, almost too
horrible to believe, is that his eyes were
first slit and then stitched up and then
gouged out. One who saw the body after
death says that both eyes were out.
+ AS to the other two men, or three, they
disappeared or escaped" from the mob,
as it is reported, but stories of horri BILE
cries in the swamps near there on Thurs
day night following their "escapen are
told. 1t is reported that they were mutt
lated as was Boggs, and that one of
them was burned alive, to extort a con-
fession from him. Pieces of pitch pine
were set on fire and stuck into his
quivering flesh until he died. All these
and other horrible tales are plentiful,
and are believed Fort White is twenty
miles from Lake City, and in the midst Of
the phosphate mines and convict camps,
/ and the neighborhood is very wild, and
the inha bitants stand on no ceremony on
such occasions. No tales are told, as
any one giving Information would be
promptly punished by these people, who
rule that section with gunshot and lash.
The sheriff Of the county is there now,
testimony be secured as to the fate of the
missing negroes.
