the murderers. There were about fof-
ty men concerned in the lynchlng.
The Jail in which the prisoners were
confined is substantial stone struc-
ture and was in charge OF Deputy
Sheriff Thomas Kelly.
About 2 o'clock in the morning there
was a rap at the outer door OF the jail
and Kelly arose quickly and turned
the KEY in the lock, thinking that
some persons he expected to meet had
arrived. No soner had he opened the
door than the members of the MOB
crowded into the small Jail corridors.
All OF them were masked and the
leaders carried ropes, purchased new
for the occasion. Kelly at once real
lied that the mob had come after his
prisoners. The lynchers were quiet
but determined. The leader presented
a revolver at the head of the deputy
sheriff and told him they wanted the
prisoners, and demanded that he open
the cells in which they were confined.
Kelly saw that resistance was useless
and unlocked the cells. Two of the
prisoners were confined in one cell,
and the other in a separate cell. They.
had been aroused from sleep by the
entrance of the men and sat up half
awake and trembling with terror.
Aoly Track and Ireland were dragged
from their beds, ropes were fastened
about their necks and they were
dragged out of the jail building after
being told to prepare for death.
The mob had more consideration for
Coudet. since the other two had con-
fessed their crime, but COudot had not,
and the mob desired to learn from him
I, al I1o
arrest for the crime are guilty. The
self-confessed murderers were dragged
across the space intervening between
the jail and a beef WindlasS several
hundred yards from the Jail upon
which they were hanged without GER
emory. Coudot was the first man to
be hanged. 1t is reported that he was
asked before he was hanged whether
Blackhawk and Defender had also
been concerned in the murder, and he
answered that they had been. Holy
Track and Ireland were so nearly I'M
conscious from the effects of the drag
ging that they did not realize what
was about to happen. When the ropes
about their necks were tossed over the
beam of the Windlass they were un-
able to stand and were slowly raised
from the ground on which they lay
until their bodies swung into the air
and dangled from the windlass with
that of Coudot.
The mob then dispersed, mounted
their horses and rode away. There
were two other men alleged to have
been implicated in the murders for
which the three were lynched, and
they We're saved from the same fate
only by the fact that they are con-
fined at Bismarck, forty miles away.

Presence of Mind of "a Motormap
Saves the Lives of Street Car
Load of Passengers.
Indianapolis, Nov. 16.-The presence
of mind of a motorman on a Bright.
wood trolley car probably averted an
accident in which the loss of life
would have been inevitable. The car
was crowded with passengers, among
whom was Gov. Mount. returning to
his home in Woodruff. AS the car an.
preached the Big Four crossing, on
Massachusetts avenue, no fiagman
was there to give warning of danger.
and the car proceeded on its way.
When within a few feet of the cross.
ing Motorman Allen Abrahams OBJ,
served an engine backing toward his
car at the rate of thirty miles an hour.
An application of the street car brakes
would have landed the motor on the
tracks lust in time to be crushed by
the engine. Realizing this fact the mo.
torman applied the full current, and
the car jumped the crossing at a
bound. but the Cd over the rear end
of the car was entirely severed by the
engine. When the passengers realized
their escape they were much agitated,
and Gov. Mount praised the motormap
for his prompt action.
