Lcander Richardson gives, in the
New York Sun, tine following vivid de-
scrlption of the lynching of n murderer
at Deadwood in the seventies
When the preparations were com
plete the prisoners hands were man
acled behind him, and he was led cat
side. The crowd cheered and then
hooted as they saw him. The yellow
of his skin had changed to an ashen
hue, and his one active little eve swept
the horizon with venomous glitter.
But he did not vince. He clutched
his half. f.smoked weed convulsively with
his teeth, pulled himself together and
stood firmly on his feet, with his chin
elevated defantly He was lifted to
the back of the horse. and sitting there,
bolt upright was led away across the
gulch 10 where II long rope dangled
from limb OF gaunt dead tree. In
one end of thisrope there was arunning
moose. The other end, after passing
over the limb, was held by several men
further up the side of the gulch. The
horse was led under the tree, two
guards, with rifles ready, walking on
ither side. The or, cb 81
onward like an angry river, panteo
with excitement that broke out in
curses and vile exclamations.
The moose was adjusted, the horse
was led out from under the murderer's
form, and at the same moment the men
holding the opposite end of the rope
ran up the hill with it for few PAGES.
The body of the tall Missourian, writh-
ing horribly in agony, flew upward. A
dozen shots from pistols and rifles
rang sharply ont. The malefactor's
ungainly feet, which had been drawn
mp i'll the first contortiou of suffering,
fell back. The bony hands, which had
clutched desperately at the back of his
shirt, relaxed and hung down, limp
and pulseless. The teeth, which had
been clinched in the final and supreme
effort of self.control, parted, and tho
remnant of the last black cigar came
floating to the ground The artificial
eye, now not more sightless than its
furtive companion, east coldly SIMS.
ter stare out over the throng below, II
throng hushed with the spending of
its fury. The body, twisting with the
strain upon the rope, swayed to and
fro i'll the freshening breeze. The peo-
pie, who were sobered and reflective,
turned slowly away and dispersed.

The World Growing Better.

1t may sound little slangy, but the
popular expression, ''we're getting
there" seems to fit the times exactly.
The world is growing better because
the people are better than they ever
were before. The sun may not shine
any brighter, but we appreciate the
light more highly. There may be as
dark places as ever there were, but We
are able to avoid them.
Certainly there never was n time
when gentleness and purity, human
love and human sympathy were more
respected or more generally appreci-
ated. Coarseness and vulgarity, rude
ness and riot will melt away before
these mild influences, until finally this
old world will be 80 bright and SO
lovable that even the good will regret
having to leave it.
We are becoming more human.
which means that the savage in our
nature is being eliminated. -Pittsburg
Commercial Gazette.
