NEW CASTLE, Feb 13-There has mo-
boon SO much interest taken in the whip
pings for some time as to-day ovei
the fact that probably 1t will be the last
time that the lash will be splied in New
Castle county as the Constitutional Con
vention will In all probability abolish the
post and pillory.
And then as Frank Thomas the burly
negro who attempted to feloniously as
January 8, in the absence of her husband
was one Of the men who stood an hour in
the pillory and was whipped with thirty
lashes large crowd from Christiana,
Stanton and Newport were in attendance
TO see the law administered.
Had 1t not been for Thomas hearing
noise on that night and believing it was
Mrs. Balls husband returning from o
meeting he would be under sentence Of
death. When he was arrested his life was
saved by the State detectives as they APP
peared at Stanton after he was arrested
when an Infatuated mob were about to
lynch him.

bered held up three men in the west yard.

As stated in the Republican yesterday
word had been received by Sheriff Finn
that an attempt would be made to do
harm to Thomas when he would be in
the stocks the Sheriff had his deputies
to keep such disorder down.
There were about 800 spectators present
when Frank Thomas vas in the pillory
and while he was whipped. Among those
present was Mrs. Carrie Il. Ball whom he
assaulted with felonious intent and for
which he will spend ten years in Jail. He
squirmed considerably under the lash,
which was well laid on.
Sheriff Finn placed blankets and nit
tens on Murphy and Hogan. Murphy
took his punishment at the post easily
but Hogan bent under the lash His back
was well marked as the skin cracked in
several places Hogan and Murphy are
professional song and dance artists.
MISS kast assistant principal of the
schools took snap shots of Thomas,
Murphy and Hogan as they stood in the
plllory. There was no trouble given by
