that he wanted TO engage about 20
Young men to work on the long dis
lance telephone line now in course Of
erection between Evansville and
Louisville, Offering wages ranging
from $25 to $65 per month and ex-
penses. He had no trouble in secur-
ing the desired number, and told
them to meet him the following
morning at the depot and from there
proceed to Birdseye, where they
were to begin work. The young

following morniny, but the stranger
failed to put in an appearance, and
finally it was learned tina he had

got map, and took it to Louisville
with him, and will submit the plans
and specifications to the Board at
an early day.
At special meeting Of the Board
on Monday night, the Veneer and
Panel Co. and the Furniture Co.
donated to the town by warranty
deeds land for a pumping station
on Patoka river. Wilson Bros. and
John +. McFall decided right Of
way through their land at north end
Of Main street for the water mains.
JOS. Egg, Tobias Herbig and Jos.
Rotte were appointed appraisers to
report value of 77-1O0 Of an acre
Of land belonging to John Hopf, ST.,
on the Reider hill, to be condemned
for reservoir purposes. They are to
make the appraisement on Aug. IL.
1t will thus be seen that the water
works are going to be- pushed in
construction promptly, and an effort
made to complete them this Fall.
The town should also acquire
about an acre more Of ground adj
joining the reservoir, for a residence
TOR some one who would supcrintend
the reservoir for the use Of the
ground.
The liberal donations Of ground
for pumping station and right Of
way betokens progressive spirit,
that secured the location Of the
pumps, and the adoption generally
Ut the system proposed.
The advertisement for proposals
for pipe and machinery will bt
found in another column.

AIR PROPELLER FOR SHIPS.

1t Is a Suggestion Which Is Too Dim.
cult to Be Appreciated as Practicable.
To propel balloons and the various
forms of air-ships, so-called, by some
means of screw propeller, much after
the manner followed in current steam
ship practice, has for long time been
one of the aims of aeronautic enthusi-
asts. To equip an ordinary ship, how
ever, in its legitimate element with air
propellers, or, in other words, with
propellers revolving in the air instead
of in the water, and to effect propulsion
solely by their aid, is one of the latest
suggestions of the times It has been
proposed to make these air propellers
similar in shape to the ordinary water
screw, with sails or blades of thin
sheet metal. and it is said to have been
found, experimentally, that for equal
numbers of revolutions, equal inten-
sity of thrust, engine power and speed,
the area of the propeller should be
about twelve times that of the water
screw. A big Atlantic liner, Swimming
over the sea with what would look
like a string of mammoth children s
pin-Wheels on each side, spinning
around in the air, is the startling vision
for which, apparently, we are called
upon to prepare ourselves.

A MARYLAND LYNCHING.
An Unmarked Mob of 800 String Up =
Negro Ravisher.

An Unmarked Mob of 500 String Up =
Negro Ravisher.
FREDERICK, Md, Nov. 1s.-James
Goings, who assaulted Miss Lille
Jones at the residence of Hamilton
Geisbert, near this city, was taken
from the Jail by mob of 600 men yes
terday morning and hanged to tree
in the field on the Jefferson turnpike,
one mile from the city.
A report reached the city that the
woman had died from the cuts and
beating inflicted by the negro, AID
this Infatuated the men, who had been
gathering in the streets and discuss
ing the outrage. A mob was quickly
gotten together and, unmasked, but
armed with revolvers, the men
marched tN the Jail. They had pre-
viously procured sledges, crowbars
and files. They made at once for the
door on the west wing of the jail and
began to batter upon it.
Fully twenty shots were fred from
the windows above by Sheriff A. H.
Zimmerman and his deputies, but the
mob paid no attention to them and
went on with its work. The jail bell
was rung to summon assistance, but
none came. In twenty minutes the
large door panels gave way under the
heavy blows, and the mob burst into
the corridor. They quickly found the
cell in which Goings was confined.
The lock was opened, the bolt swung
back and the tremb bling wretch
dragged out, rope was placed
around him. and he was hurried down
the road to his place of doom.
He protested his innocence as they
0rarCRd him al0nn and haCCed them
not to kill him. He was recognized by
a number of men who knew HIM, and
the mob did not hesitate in its work.
Arrived at the tree, the negro was
asked to confess, buG this he would
not do. Two officers of the Salvation
Army asked to be allowed to pray
with the man and their request was
granted. The Lords prayer was then
repeated and the negro and most of
the crowd joined in.
Goings' feet and hands were then
tied and the rope was drawn around
his neck A man seized the other end
of'it, climbed the tree and threw the
cord over limb. Let him CO." was
shouted. and quick as a flash he was
jerked from his feet and hung dangling
in the air, six feet from the ground
One shot was fired into his body, and
in q few minutes he was dead
The mob during the process of
lynchinP observed order. A member
of the mob made a brief speech, in
which he said they were there with
the unfortunate wretch, not in spirit
of malice, but to make n example OF
him, and teach his race that they must
| let the women of Frederick county
alone.
The assault for which Goings suf-
fered death was cruel and dastardly
enc. Miss Jones has thirteen cuts and
stab wounds on her body where he
hacked at her with kife and razor.
After watching the body swing in
the air few minutes the crowd left il
| dangling there and dispersed.
