this morning to tree on Long Noun

berland range, many miles from set
Element. The perpetrators of the
hanging are unknown. Many horses,
cattle, and mules have died during
the past winter, all showing signs of
having been poisoned, and strong sus-
plcion rested on Douglas, who was
a married man, 40 years of age. Re-
Gently, fine barn belonging to Doug

stances seemed to fix upon Douglas
the crime of incendiarism. He was
decoyed- from his home on Sunday

though another theory is that he had
incurred the anger of moonshiners by
by informing officers of their hiding
