ANOTHER OUTRAGE.
A Fourteen Year Old Girl the Victim of
Vicious Brute's Lust.

NlclOuS bEuC6' 8 Lust.
On Friday morning near Elliston, q
nineteen-year old negro named Lark f.
Taylor. committed criminal assault on
fourteen year old white girl named
Mary Jane Maxey.
lt seems that the girls father was on
the plantation at work and her mother
had gone to Elliston to do some shopping
leaving only two girls, Mary Jane and a
younger sister, at home.
After the brute had accom- lished his
purpose he threatened to kill both girls
and in order TO save their lives each
were sworn to keep the awful crime u
secret. The black scoundrel then left
the house. The alarm was soon given
among the neighbors and posse of cit
zens started in pursuit. He was cap
tured and turned over to officer Evans,
who started for Christiansbu1g Jail with
his prisoner. Upon reaching Houchin
the train was delayed and in the mean
time II necktie party had been organized.
The officer proposed to his prisoner that
they walk across the country to Chris
tlansburg, hut the latter was not in Ii
walking mood. 1t is understood that the
lynching party came up with them at
Houchin, where they were waiting to
pass the wreck. Another lynching party
was also organized Mt Elliston. 1t is not
known what became of the negro, but the
presumption is that he was swung to the
nearest tree.

THE WOOL PRODUCT.
Great Bands of sheep Roam the
Hills, Valleys and Prairies-
Wooden Goods.

The total output Of wool last year was
a trife below that OF the TWO previous
seasons, but IL IS now quite up 20 the con-
sumption in the shape Of manufactured
material IL this state. The product IS
estimated AZ from II, co 70 l60Q,020
pounds. OF which a nttle over two-thirds
comes from Eastern Washington. This.
however, IS lower IN price. as the wool
from the Wild lands is not so clean
that from the farms OF Western Wash
.ingson. which sells at from cents TO 10
cents per pound.
With the exception OF about 600. coo
pounds. which is manufactured by the Sc
attic mill and the Tacoma mills, the
whole OF this product goes out Of the
state aud comes back to il in manufac-
tured goods. By one OF those mysteries
OF commerce. most OF the manufactured
product OF the state is sold Ia 81. Paul.
Chicago and other Eastern centers of the
wholesale dry goods business, one reason
being that no large wholesale house here
could handle 1t. and another being the
desire OF the manufacturers 10 obtain a
prominent position for their goods In tho
markets of the country. The fannels
made here from native wool are already
making a name for themselves. the wool
being particularly soft and silky, and
therefore well adapted for such fabrics.
The difference III price between the wool
OF the Eastern and Western sections OF
the state is due 10 a difference in the
breed of sheep raised. on the vast prai-
ries east OF the mountains the merino
is bred almost entirely. as the national
habit of this sheep is to move In fiocks
and therefore they are more easily herd
ed. On Western farms the long wool
sheep. the Cotswoid and others, have the
preference. The Southdown is now push
ing forward, and Is found to be the best
sheep for the general farmer because It's
mutton fetches higher price. and the de-
mand for prime mutton has increased
largely during the year all over the coun-
try.
The number Of sheep IN the state Is esti-
mated at SEGA 900. and the area of coun-
try adapted for sheep ranges Is sufficient
for a considerable increase. The priBoi-
pal ranges are In the buuch-grass hills
and valleys Of Kittitas and Klickitat
counties. but there are also large areas
extending through the open pine lands
Of the valleys far mp towards the summit
Of the Cascades from The eastward The
best ranges In the west are tn the grass
grown gravel prairies which abound
from Tacoma southwark 20 the Columbia
river, and are also found a intervals In
other sections of the Sound country and
the Olympic peninsula. Many Of these
ranges are unpcopled by sheep. and afford
scope for a great extension OF the wool
growing industry.
