saved just in Time.

MAssILoN, Ohio, Oct. s.-A mob of
citizens of Dalton secured man named
Herman Saturday night and placing a
rope around his neck and had all but
hanged him when the more timorous
weakened and he was given over to the
marshal, after having confessed that he
had made four attempts to burn his own
dwelling. just one month ago tonight
half of the village was destroyed by fire,
and 40 families rendered destitute. The
repeated acts at Herman's house
directed suspicion against him, and on
Saturday night he was caught in the act
of attempting to set his house on fire.

Robbed and Murdered.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Oct. s.-While ).
R. Burns, wealthy farmer, was en-
route home Saturday night from Easta-
boga, where he had sold large lot of
cotton, he was met in forest by three
marked men. They demanded his
money or his life. Burns quickly drew
his pistol and fred twice at the robbers,
and then attempted to drive them off.
They seized him and dragging him from
his buggy they tied him to a tree and
robbed him, after which each man
fired two shots at him, all of which took
effect. Burns was found half an hour
later by man who heard his groans.
Burns lived long enough to tell the story
of the murder.

sentenced For Iife.

SAN Francisco, Oct. S.-Dennis
Moore, Cornelius Germ and James Dom
nelly, not one OF whom is over % years
of age, were sentenced to state prison
for life this morning by Judge Wallace.
The robbery for which the trio will
spend the rest of their days in the peni-
tentiary WAS committed last Fourth of
July. A friend named Thomas Howard
came from Tuolumne county and treated
them to the exposition. That afternoon
when they left the grounds the three
took Howard to a secluded spot, as
saulted him, and after beating him tied
his hands and legs, stole $50 and left
him in a helpless condition.
