man is dead and warlike spirit has

threatens trouble. Abe Balm and his
two brothers are all well-to-do farmers
living near West Point. Not far away

When the old man died q few days ago
1T was claimed he had starved to death
and the alleged cruel treatment of the
sons was generally denounced. After
the father was dead the sons refused
to pay the expenses of his burial or
even to see The body. This so enraged
the nefghboring farmers that a mob of
about thirty citizens marched to the
home of the Balm brothers and called
for Abe. the Oldest. Abe stepped to
the door, and seeing the crowd outside
retreated into the house before the
mob could lay hands on him. He
called to his brothers and all three
opened fire on the visitors from
tho door of the house, in
which were Abe's wife and children.
The mob returned the fire, and after
the smoke had cleared away it was
found that Abe had been mortally
wounded and he died in a short time.
They have sworn out warrants against
seven neighbors charging them with
murder. Many of the farmers say
they will not countenance the arrest Of
