suicides in JAN.
Clarendon, Ark, Aug. 11.-About
midnight Tuesday night a mob of
about 200 men visited the county Jail
and took out four negroes implicated
in the assassination of John L. Orr on
July 30, and hanged them to the tram
way of the Halporn sawmilI, which
stands 100 yards in the rear of the
Jail. The four hanged were: VIII
Sanders, the one who fired the shot
that killed Mr.. Orr; Rilla Weaver, the
mother of Sanders and the cook i'll
the Orr households; Dennis Record, the
"hoodoo doctor and onjurer," who
tried to poison Orr with boiled snake
heads, and Manse Castle, who volun-
teered to do the job and gave it to
Sanders. Miss Rachel Morris, accused
of being an accessory before the fact,
and Susie Jacobs, a negro woman, ac-
cessory after the fact have skipped
out.
Mrs. Orr, wife of the murdered man,
was in the corridor of the Jail when
the mob entered. She had taken
poison ana ultu last nlRnI.
The negroes were hanged from the
elevated tramway of the mill, where
they remained until "a. IN. yesterday.
Great crowds viewed the grewsome
sight of a woman aud three men dang
ling six feet from the ground with
tongues protruding and ropes cutting
deep into their necks. The negroes
seem to indorse the lynching and
many of them are open in the eX-
presSions of satisfaction over the
death of Dennis Record, whose arts of
hoodoo and conjuring made him an
object of fear to them.
| 1t appears from letters received by
Mrs. Orr, in the name of her cook,
Rilla Weaver, through whom all the
correspondence was conducted, that
Mrs. Orr and Rachel Morris were to re
main here until Mr.. Orr'S insurance
money was collected and then go to
New York, where they were to meet
two men and form theatrical com
pany. Mrs. Orr was also in CORE
| spondence with other men. y letter
said to be from Arthur o. Archer,
mayor of Caldwell, o., addressed to
Rilla Weaver, in which he states that
he will meet her in September or Oc-
tober, came yesterday.
This letter is accompanied by "A
photograph of the Real Kid Mayor"
indorsed on the cack, Arthur to Lo-
rilla." Lorilla is the negro woman
who cooked for the Orrs. Apparently
| Mrs. Orr carried on correspondence in
| LorilIa's name.
Mrs. Orr was admitted to the first
| homes of the town, was given a promi-
ncnt place in church work and every
consideration generally accorded good
people.
After the arrest of Mrs. Orr and the
negroes, Mrs. Orr made a confession.
She admitted that she had said to her
cook that she wished her husband
dead and that she would be willing
to give 5000 to anybody to kill him.
! Bat she said this was uttered while
in a fit of anger and that she was
innocent of any criminal intention.
Mrs. Orr was Miss Mabel Parker. for

diet that the deceased were killed by

CATTLE REPORT.

J. Warren Ellsworth, inspector of ami
mails and provisions, presented the fol-
lowing report:
To the City Government. Worcester,
Mass:
As one of the three inspectors of an
imals and provisions of the city of Wor-
cester the undersigned herewith begs
leave to submit report of his work
to your honorable body
I was appointed during the admins
tration of Hon. H. A. Marsh, in Octo-
Der, 1894. and was assigned the duties of
slaughterhouse inspector. In the two
succeeding months of 1894 I examined
178 neat cattle at the time of slaughter,
and condemned eight carcasses as af-
fected with tuberculosis In the year
1885, examined 1917 carcasses of beef,
and condemned and destroyed as tuber-
culous S4
The next year, 1896, examined 1893
carcasses, and only 20 were condemned.
Last year, 1897, l examined 1916 carcass
ses, of which only IA were condemned
as unfit for food Thus it will be seen
that in each succeeding year the per-
centage of diseased carcasses Is materi-
ally smaller, showing that the work of
the cattle commission has been produc-
tive of good results. In every instance,
the condemned carcasses were those of
cows, the steers and bulls being in
variably sound, a fact which might tend
to prove that tuberculosis more readily
attacks animals which are kept and fed
for milk.
