sAssIN.
he fires Farmer Dykes Barn and
when the Owner Comes Out of the
Home Mt Dead of Might to Ex-
tInsuish thc Flames shoots Him.

ciarksville. Tex, oct. 1.-THE foul
est murder In the history OF Red River
county was committed last night, II.
c. Dyke, prosperous farmer living
about four miles southeast OF this
place. was shot and killed by negro
named Andrew Jackson. Jackson had
been living on Mr.. Dykes place
ahd made an account at Captain
Dicks store for supplies during the
summer for which Dyke stood good.
A few days ago Jackson started to
leave Dykes place. Mr.. Dyke refused
to let him move his things or until
the store account was paid.
Last night about o'clock Mr.. Dyke
woke up and found his barn and cribs
on fire. without waiting to dress he
ran out. and about half way between
the house and barn was shot and in
stantly killed.
Mr. Dykes son, who had followed
him, saw his father shot and recog-
nized Andrew jackson as the muir
derer. Mr.. Dyke was shot in the head
with a big load Of buckshot and his
head nearly torn OF,
The neighbprs at once organized
a posse and started on hunt for the
negro and caught him about day
light He was carried back to Mr..
Dykes home and made a full con-
fesslon, showing them where he stood
and giving minute description OF the
whole transaction. Sheriff Dinwiddie
and deputy came up Just in time to
prevent a lynching as the crowd had
already started with the negro to
the woods. Sheriff Dlnwiddie's prompt
action in getting the negro in jail only
prevented lynchlng as crowd was
rapidly gathering and talk OF hang
ing was freely INDUCED In. All is
quiet now and It is evident the people
have consulted their better Judgment
and determined to let the law take its
course

Topeka, Kan. oct. l2.-Alrs. Laura
NJ. Johns, president OF the Kansas
Equal Suffrage association, in public
letter given out. says:
I'VE have In our creed only one arti-
cle--a pledge to work for woman's en-
franchlssinent. Individual members
OF our association do believe IN and
work for reform In woman's dress,
but all that is outside OF our legitimate
business as sufrragists. Suffrage asso-
Citations have nothing to do with any
such departure The talking about a
fictitious voting costume for the new
constituents In Kansas is confined to
the newspapers and furnishes the
boys with a target for their wits. A
voting costume ia nonsense, and we
have mono ot H. We have always worn
skirts to the polls. and we are likely
