of a LNnchinL Hee


Duluth, Special, Feb. 25.-There vas
/ n exciting time at Two Harbors for a
lew hours. There was talk of holding
/ lynching bee. Gust Johnson. pro-
~)rietor of the Swedish hotel there,
vas arrested on a charge of assault
ng his thirteen-year-old daughter.
She was brought for examination be-
lore Judge Bryan, and told a story
duplicating her father, but the de-
lendant produced witnesses to show
hat the charge was due to a con
;piracy on the part of herself and a
young Frenchman named Napoleon
Grafton. with whom she had been
ionnd under suspicious circumstances.
rhe evidence was so clearly in John
sons favor that the judge discharged
ainl. and the crowd which had previ-
ously been threatening to lynch him

youngest daughter of Mr.. and Mrs

tested their memory of Little Annie
by wealth of floral tributes that fairly

of Goodrich avenue, officiated, and told
in tender tones, how God had only loan
ed the little one to the parents for a
time, and in his wisdom took her away
again to keep her pure and spotless till
she can call for mama in her eternal
home
