A mass of short. heavy blonde hair
covers the head with bangs in front. The
facial appearance gives rise to the belief
that the owner Of the head in her life
time possessed great beauty. A long
cut or incision in the skull over the
right ear tells how the woman met her
fate.
The discovery of the head has given
rise to. all manner of conjectures as to
the woman's identity, who buried the
head and how it got there. The pre-
vailing opinion is that the woman was
murdered, her body buried somewhere
and the head buried in the cellar.
Many believe that the head is that of
Pearl Bryan, murdered at Fort Thomas,
KY, by Scott jackson and Alonzo Wall
ing. This woman has been dead three
or four years, while Pearl Bryan met
her fate but year and a half ago, which

A dispatch from Havana, Cuba, to the

autonomy by permitting the killing of
General Castillo. General Castillo was not
killed In open fight; he was betrayed by
a Cuban guide who was captured by the

Gay morning. 1t was more satisfactory to
shoot him than to treat him as a prisoner
of war
Castillo commanded Havana province.
and was beloved as an able and b,ave
general by every Cuban under arms. His
killing will arouse desire for revenge that
at the present juncture will tend to pre-
vent acceptance Of any autonomy by the
rebels.
With an escort of seven men Castillo
was lying i'll with fever in a secluded spot
when the guide betrayed him. The EXHIBIT
ton Of his body has aroused Indignation.

ATKINSON CONDEMNS LYNCH LAW.

Georgia Governor Says Innocent Men
Have Been Killed.
On the subject OF lynching Gov. Atkin-
son of Georgia, in his message to the legis-
lature says:
ITO adopt lynch law is to put the life OF
every man in the power of any woman who
for any reason might desire his death. ]
feel more deeply upon this question. be-
cause from the best information / can Sc
cure I believe that during my administra-
tion there have been in this state several
men lynched who were not guilty Of the
crimes with which they were charged.
THE arresting officer is now clothed with
authority to take the life of the assailants
when resisting their efforts to take pris-
oner from his custody. This he should be
required to do. or the prisoner should be
unshackled. armed and given an opportun-
ity to defend himself. The knowledge on
the part of the mob that this would be done
would deter it from pursuing its lawless
purpose.
Il am informed that one man. whom the
mob believed to be guilty, was shot down.
question then arose as to his identity,
and he was sailed down like hog, shipped
to the location OF the crime and found to
be the wrong man-an innocent man.
Lynch law has not been restricted to
cases where the charge was an assault
upon woman. In Texas a man was
lynched to suppress his evidence; in Ken
lucky because he was Objectionable to the
neighborhood, and in Indiana FIVE men were
lynched for burglary. In our state in the
last three years seven men have been
lynched for murder, and one man and one
woman because they were suspected of
arson.
Even had it been confined to offenses
committed upon women it could not have
been justified. When such crimes are
charged the passion of the people is more
deeply stirred than by any other, and the
mob is quick to act.
1.-The democratic candidates for the as
sembly went to the people upon a platform
adopted by the state convention, which de-
plored and denounced lynchings and favor
ed the enactments of such laws as would
effectually prevent them. 1 now ask the
men who were elected on this platform to
enact into law provisions which will, in
good faith. meet the requirements of this
declaration"
