The De BOissiere Orphans Home In Full
Control of the Grand Lodge.
TOPEKA, April 24.-Judge Hazen. OF
the Shawnee county district court, de-
cided the De Boissiere Orphans Home
case, in which was involved the right
of the grand lodge of Odd Fellows of
Kansas to accept as a gift the De Bois-
siere farm of Franklin county and
maintain it as home for orphan chill
dren of members of the order The de-
cision, which is very long, completely
sustains the grand lodge.
De Boissiere decided the property to
a board of trustees selected by himself.
on condition that the grand lodge con-
vert it into an orphans home. The
trustees took possession and at once
began to carry out the wishes of the
grantor. Afterwards the grand lodge
ratified the action of the trus-
tees. formally accepted the gift
and levied an assessment of
sL5O per capita for the support of the
institution. A number of Hutchinson
Odd Fellows instituted an injunction
suit before Judge Hazen. The case
was argued some weeks ago and the
court held the case under advisement
until to-day.
The case has been watched with in
terest not only by the S5 900 Odd Fell
lows of Kansas, but by Odd Fellows
throughout the United States and Can
ada. Kansas Masons are also interested
in the case, as they are preparing to
establish similar institution.

A Negro Miner Hanged by o Mob at
Cherokee.
CHEROKEE, Kan, April s4-Fred Ha-
man, coal miner living with his fam
lily near the Schwab mines, miles east
of here, was killed last night at his
house. He was awakened at midnight
last night by some Alabama negro coal
miners, who said that they wanted to
get in to procure whisky. Haman, who,
1t is said, had been selling liquor, told
them to go away, as he had no bottles
and did not wish to open the house at
that hour.
The men outside departed but re.
turned half hour later and broke
open the door. Two negroes entered
and with drawn revolvers and razors,
began to search for money. They broke
the drawer off the sewing machine and
secured about $50.
Haman ran out in his bare feet to
get help but was shot in the throat and
ran about $50 yards and fell where he
was found an hour later dead.
A warrant was sworn out for jeff
Tuggle. a colored miner, charging him
with murder. He was caught at Weir
City about Q o'clock this morning and
brought to Cherokee.
A few minutes later Mrs. Haman, the
dead mans wife, accompanied by
score or two of miners arrived and
when the woman was taken before the
prisoner she identified him instantly as
one of the robbers and it was all the
officers could do to keep her from as
saulting Tuggle. By this time large
crowd of miners had gathered and loud
threats of lynching were INDUCED in.
The officers made hasty preparations
to take the prisoner to Girard, but be-
fore they could get him away the mob
captured Tuggle after handling the Of
ficers roughly. Constable Malcolm was
thrown down and disarmed. The citi-
zens generally appeared apathetic and
little attempt was made to assist the
officers
The mob marched Tuggle with a rope
around his neck about half mile
northwest of town and hung him to a
cottonwood tree until dead.
