How a Lynching in a Texas Town
Was Ayerted,

Detroit Free Prees.
There is a town in Texas so poor and
measly that its own inhabitants stay
there only because they are as poor as it
is, though, perhaps, not quite as measly,
FOR they are conscious Of their condition.
Whatever else they are they have
Strong sense of state pride,a and they will
hang man as quick for horse stealing
as. will the inhabitants of the most flour
ishing and richest city in the state. Some
time ago stranger in the town was ar
Rested on suspicion and held until the
recent disappearance of two horses
could be Investigated. Before the in
veStigation was concluded, the citizens
held meeting and decided to have a
public trial of their prisoner. He was
brought out Oh the square. and before
they found tree suitable for their Dur-
pose man in the crowd recognized the
man.
Friends and fellow citizens" he
shouted from a barrel he had climbed
ON, ''yOu are about to make dreadful
mistake. This gentleman is not horse
thief, but friend of mine. and rep
utable citizen of the city of Waco. He
came here during my DSence to see a
gentleman who was coming from st.
Louis"
wv nat Qlu ne want mere! asked the
SPOKESMAN of the citizens committee.
.'He came on matter of business"
Name the business"
"He came here, fellow citizens, to
buy real estate and make the town
boOm.''
The committee held a consultation,
and in a few moments the spokesman
was ready to report. RE - I'D E
"Well, colonel" he said, addressing
the man Oh the barrel as he united the
prisoners hands and took the rope from
around his neck, ION your statement
that he did not steal them bosses. we
will let the prisoner go; and, besides,
speakin' of his business here, we amt
the kind of people that wants to hang a
crazy man nohow," and the gentleman
from Waco got back to Waco as fast as
he could with busted boom on his
hand.

FLETCHER RETURNS,
He Says the Tariff Bill Will Surely
Pass

Congressman Loren Fletcher arrived
home yesterday morning. He will re-
main short time and rest up. Then he
will grid himself for his coming defsat
for another season at the capital. He
stated i'll an interview yesterday after
noon that he was confident that the
tariff bill will be passed very soon. The
members of the house. he said. expected
to caucus yesterday for the purpose of
testing the strength Oh the passage of
the bill.
Mr.. Fletcher said he was in favor of
the sub-postofice bill, and that in his
opinion it would be passed, though for
the nonce it will lay over. A more OPP
perfume time is all that is necessary, he
said, to pass it. The bill would work
advantage to Minneapolis, inasmuch as
it fixes three sub offices, one for the
East side. one for the North side and
the third for the South side. the offices
to cost in the neighborhood of $4,000.
MIR. Fletcher remarked ON Wash
burns chances for another term i'll the
senate, and said he was sure he would
be sent back. He said a great many
nice things about the senator, and
hoped he Wou Id be reelected.

ness Among Politicians.
The published statement that there
are several lists of the members of the
Minneapolis A. p. A. in the hands of
gentlemen who are working in behalf
of pure politics, has created consider
able uneasiness in certain quarters of
the city and among certain class of
politicians. who arc afraid their names
will be exposed. Many of these poll
ticians have undertaken to deny that
they are members of the A. p. A,
although their names appear on the
lists. They say their names have been
placed on the lists by political enemies.
How they are aware they are on the
lists, having never seen one Of them, is
a mystery. No doubt there is some
thing psychological about their manner
of obtaining the knowledge.
1t was stated yesterday by the gentle
men having charge of the matter, that
the roster was being revised and aug.
mented and that as soon as everything
Is complete the public will be made
cogniZant of what has been going on in
their midst. The whole membership
numbers only ZOOS.

Ex-Detective King Manages to Let
People Hear From Him.
Ex.Detective Norman King met his
match yesterday in the person of John
Mcdonnell, brawny Scotchman who is
butcher by trade, and who resides on
Thirty-second avenue north. After at
lacking Mcdonnell and finding himself
no match for him, the erstwhile sleuth
hound displayed deputy sheriff's
badge, and, at the sight of it, McDon-
nell readily assented to accompany him
10 the Central police station.
A charge of assault and battery wa S
preferred against him. Mcdonnell
stated that King attacked him first.
According to his version of the affair.
the trouble grew out of an insignificant
episode. A boOtblack agleed to shine
his boots for i've cents, and when he
handed him quarter the young gamin
gave him 10 cents in change and started
! to run down Washington from First
avenue south. He caught him and
| brought him back to the corner, intend
ing to brighten him.
Norman King appeared on the scene
i at this Juncture and ordered him to re-
lease his hold on the boy. Mcdonnell
didn't know King and told him to go
about his business. whereupon King
talked fight. Had it not been for the
| lntercesSiou of lookers-on, the Scotch
| man would have battered Kings face
| to jelly. 1t appears that King was
| appointed deputy sheriff during the
! strike and still retains his star.
