men in front of the Cole county jail at
$50 Saturday evening and succeeded
In dissuading them from their purpose
Of lynching lobe Lanahan, half
witted negro, who is charged with as
saultipg, numbering and mutilating a
l4.year-old colored girl in this city
Friday night After short talk by
the Governor the crowd dispersed, and
another attempt at lynching is not
looked for until Lanahan's guilt Is
more clearly established, in which
event it is doubtful if either eloquence
or force will avail to save the wretch's
life.
Governor Stones calm and determ-
ined demeanor and his words of good
advice undoubtedly averted trouble
when the big crowd surrounded the
Jail.
The police think Lanahan is the
guilty man, and will do everything in
their power TO procure more evidence
against him.

Famous Blue Cut-Got $4,000.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Dec. 25.-Passen-
ger train No. 40, on the Chicago &
Alton railway, that left the Union depot
at s:45 o'clock Wednesday evening was
held up and robbed an hour later
mile and a half east of independence,
near Blue cut, the spot made famous
by train robbers ON three previous
occasions.
After the robbers had stopped their
special in the Glendale cut they raped
on the door of the express car, Express
Messenger Fryer did not know what
had occurred, and when he heard
the rap at the side door, think
ing it was the brakeman, he opened it.
The robbers searched the express car
coolly and leisurcly. Messenger Frier
was forced to surrender the key to the
local safe, in which are stored pack
ages for delivery at points along the
run. 1t is an iron box about three feet
long by one and one-half feet wide.
From this box the robbers reaped
harvest, but the exact amount of
money taken the United States Express
company refuses to state. 1t is thought
to be about So, 900.
After looting the car they cut the
engine loose and ran to a point mile
cast OF Glendale Here they de-
serted the engine and took to
the woods. They took the precau-
ton to kill" the engine before they
left it, and the fact that this was done
in workmanlike manner Is another
reason for believing that the men were

NoRToNvnLE, Kan, Dec. 2S.-Jacob
Hopkins was shot and instantly killed
at Cummings, near here, Sunday morn
ing at 10 o'clock by Elisha Graham.
Hopkins was man about As years of
age and had been working for Graham
on the farm for the past season. Hop
llins was widower and was to have
been married to daughter of Graham
next Wednesday.
About week ago the two men went
to AtchisOn together and while there
Graham drew SIPS from a bank and
proceeded to get gloriously drunk.
While in that condition he lost his
money After arriving home he ac-
cused Hopkins Of stealing the money
from him, but upon investigation it
was found that Hopkins was not with
Graham during the day and that the
money was lost at the gambling table.
Graham has been adverse to the
marriage of his daughter with Hop
kins, and Sunday morning he and his
son left home in wagon, the old man,
who was armed with revolver and q
Winchester rifle, avowing that he
would kill Hopkins before he returned
home from his farm. He drove TO Cum
mings, distance of about two miles,
and went to the barber shop. While
there he saw Hopkins with crowd on
the street just in front of the shop.
He walked outside AID through the
crowd to Hopkins and drew his re-
volver, placed itagainst Hopkins breast
and fired the bullet, which passed in
the body near the heart. Hopkins
turned partially around and Graham
again shot at him, hitting him in the
arm as he turned. Hopkins said:
Don't let him shoot again" and foil
to the ground dead. After he was
down Graham fired two shots more at
his PROSTATE body. Graham then
passed on through the crowd and GO
ing to the home of the daughter who
lived near bid her goodby, and getting
into his wagon he and son started for
Atchison, ten miles distant, where
Graham said he would give himself
up. Graham is man IS years old
and owns several farms and has for
many years been considered good
citizen. Hopkins has son and
daughter, who are living in Oklahoma
Graham is in Jail at Atchison.
