Duke says, it is true, he had tacitly
urged Major Mcdowell to make
the race for Congress in the Ash

Major Mcdowell he ought to run
as Republican, but as non-par-

Wilson's Day of Doom.

ST. LOUIS, June l4.-Unless Gov
ernor Stone or providence inter-
feres, George Wilson, the murderer
of Nose Hodges, will hang to-
day in the st. Louis jail yard.
This fact is certain, owing to the
refusal of the Supreme court at
Jefferson city to give the case re-
hearing. The crime for which
Wilson will surrender his life was
committed on the night Of Novem-
Der s, election day. 1892. He is a
Negro, and was in love with a girl
who at that time lived at No. 35l5
Bernard street. She did not re-
turn the affection, preferring Nose
Hodges. When Wilson learned of
the existence of his rival he went
out in search of him. They met
in the girls home. Wilson shot
Hodges, inflicting wound from
which he died several days later
Wilson was arrested in Chicago,
brought back to st. Louis, tried
and found guilty of murder in the
first degree. He carried his case
to the Supreme court, only to have
the verdict Of the lower court af-
firmed.

Lynched Incendiary,

MONROE, La, June IA sus-
pected fire bug was lynched here
last night. About o'clock fire
was discovered in a vacant
residence in the upper end
Of town and was promptly
extinguished. Half an hour
later another fire was discovered
in the lower end of town, and the
suspicious of people were then
aroused. Blood hounds were put
on the trail, and after taking a
circutous route they went to the
house of a white man named
J. H. Day, and as all circum-
stances pointed to him being
the party, he was jailed. Later in
the night a mob broke into the
jail, took him out and swung him
to a limb. There is no doubt here
but what Day was the right party
and he is suspected Of completely
in numerous other incendiary fires
which have occurred lately.
