HELD OVER A FIRE.
Tramps Torture 12-Year Old Boy Near
Scranton.


Scranton.
Scranton, July 8.-Twelve year old
Willie Turner reached the home OF his
father, j ohm Turner, at Nay Aug, near
this city, his body entirely unclothed,
and his head, back, legs and feet a mass
of burns.
The boy tainted but later said he had
stroiled through the woods and came
across two tramps who were cooking Il
meal over wood fire. They caught him
and took off all his clothing. The tramps
then held him over the fire until his flesh
cracked from the heat. He was then re .
leased.
The place is two miles from Nay Aug,
and the little fellows feet were terribly
lacerated when he reached home.
A large party of Nay Aug citizens lett
for the scene of the outrage. Nothing
will interfere with lynching if the
tramps are found. The physicians in at
tendance on young Turner report his case
AS serious
