Brook Haven, Miss, Dec. 11.-Addi-
tional details of the killing of Mrs.
Brownsmith and four children in Law
renee county Wednesday, and the sub
sequent lynching of the supposed muir
derer were received today.
After capturing Charles Lewis. the
alleged murderer, the mob placed him
alongside of several other negroes, and
asked the little girl who was spared by
the murderer to pick out the one who
killed her mother She at once pointed
to Charles Lewis.
This strong evidence to the mob.
made It difficult for Sheriff Gazzen to
induce the people to turn Lewis over
to him for safe keeping. He assured
them he would have the negro at
Bankston Ferry for trial.
BROWNS1IITH'S PLEA.
AS promised. he and his deputies ar
rived there in time with the negro.
Two hundred men armed with shotguns
and WinchesterS quickly surrounded
the officers, and insisted that they give
up their prisoner. BrOWnSmith. the man
whose family was murdered, pleaded
with the crowd to be patient and not to
rush hastily into a thing they might
regret. Re said that while he did not
doubt his -childs word, yet she was so
young that there might be a chance Of
her being mistaken.
SEIZED THE NEGRO.
After parleying for some time. the
mob, under the leadership of a few de-
termined men, made rush for the ne
gro, and succeeded in getting him from
the deputies. after d hard struggle
They then placed a plow line around
the negro's neck, put him on a horse
and drove him under a tree. The hall
ter was fastened to limb, and the
horse driven from under the poor
wretch, leaving him to strange to
death. He denied his guilt to the last.

DUzLING IN GERMANY.
Must Be Modified to Suit Emperor's
Wishes.

Berlin, Dec. 11.-During the discus
sion of the budget in the reichstag to-
DAY, replying to q question as to
whether the recent cabinet order has
caused a diminution of dueling, Cen
eral Won Coster, the minister for war,
said:
1T is the will of the emperor that
the practice of dueling should be di-
miaished. Dueling is punishable, and
there have been only two dueis since
the order was issued. Cases will al
ways arise where soldiers will honor
more his imperial majesty than life.
Everywhere and among officers, the
habit should be cultivated of pricing
the honor of others as highly as ones
own: then the complaints of dueling
would disappear Of themselves

Of when leaving Colombo on June for
this port, has returned here, and reports
that the Alden was totally lost off the
island of Socotra, at the eastern extrem-

The Alden carried thirty-four passen-
gers from China and Japan. The captain
of the wrecked steamer, some OF her
officers and crew, and seven white
passengers were swept overheard and
drowned very soon after she ran ashore.
Eight lady passengers, nine chill
dren, two officers and a few of the
Aden's crew succeeded in getting away
from the wreck in boat, but they have
not been heard of since, and little hope,
owing to the bad weather which has
since prevailed, is entertained of their
safety. The Mayo saved nine of the
Aden's passengers, and three OF the
white and 33 natives of the steamers
crew. All Of these persons were rescued
just as the Alden was breaking up. The
survivors of the wrecked steamer were
brought to this port by the Mayo, and
are being cared for by the local author

In all, the drowned and missing in
clude 25 passengers, 20 European officers
