FROM COURT WINDOW
How Chadwick Marshall Was
Lynched by a Mob.
DAKOTA Sims FIGHT FOR LIFE,
summary Vengeance Taken Upon the
Suspected Murderer, Who Was n Mem
ber of the Famous Virginia Fam
lily, His Father Being a Judge.

COLFAX, Wash, Jan. l0.--Chadwick
Marshall. the suspected murderer Of
young Hayden, near Farmington, on
the night of Oct. %. was taken from jail
by mob and hanged 10 the west wall
OF the courthouse. The lynching was
done so quietly that the town was not
alarmed, and persons sleeping In the
basement OF the courthouse were not
aroused.
Jailer T.. b. Tref. the only officer
about the courthouse, was awakened
and confronted by masked men with
drawn revolvers. Treff was informed
that the mob wanted TO hang Black Eye
Marshall and Dakota Slim Mcdonald
and ordered him TO give up the jail
keys, which he did.
Twelve Of the mob then entered the
Jail IN the women's wing, whore DakO-
"a Slim was confined. Slim protested
innocence and said, Take Black Eye,
who admits his guilt. and II he impn-
Gates me / will 60" The mob thought
this a fair proposition and went into
the east wing OF the jail. whore Black
Eyes cell was unlocked
He had only time TO say. Don't hurt
me; before God / am innocent when
one Of the mob struck him a blow over
him. A rope was then fastened around
his neck. and he was dragged out Of the
Jail and up the narrow stairs 10 the
superior courtroom TO double window,
where the rope was tied around a stand
ard between the windows.
Black Eyes body was then pitched
out head foremost and left dangling at
the end Of an S-foot rope against the
courthouse wall In plain view OF the
people on Main street.
While this was. being done a part OF
the mob returned TO Dakota Sims
cell. During their absence the prisoner
had stuffed the keyhole Of the cell door
with rags and fastened n sharp knife
on the end of q broomstick. with this
spear he kept iabbing through the
barred door Of his cell. thus preventing
any one from approaching the door to
pick the rags out of the keyhole.
His cell had two doors, the inner ono
being OF solid steel, and behind this he
protected his body. Finally one of the
mob, catching glimpse Of Sims
shoulder, fred a shot at him. The bull
let passed through the sleeve, struck
the wall and rebounded, striking him
on the breast. He fell to the floor, ex-
claiming. MY Godl they have killed
met Another shot was fired at him.
Finally they decided that Slim was dead
and left
His wound however, is not serious,
and he has since been taken TO Walla
Walla for safe keeping. A majority OF
the people here denounce the lynching
of Marshall.
Chadwick Marshall. the victim Of the
mob, was a member Of the famous Mar
shall family of Virginia while con-
fined In the jail here he received word
Of the death OF his father, Judge
Thomas Jefferson Marshall at the resi-
dence of his daughter. Mrs. w. T..
Smiley, near Santa Fe, N. NJ Judge
Marshall was born IN Virginia In 1872
and removed TO Missouri in 1881 For
eighteen years he held the office Of
county clerk Of Warren county. In 1861
he moved TO Mexico. Mo-, where he held
various public offices.

HAWAIIAN QUESTION
Debate In the Senate This
Week on Annexation.
CENSUS BILL ALSO ON THE CALENDAR
Civil Service Debate In the House TO BE
Probably Concluded Tomorrow what
It Has Proved-Appropriatio
Bills TO BE Discussed.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1O.-Interest in
the senate proceedings for the week
centers in the promised debates of the
treaty for the annexation OF Hawaii.
Senator Davis has given notice that he
will move an executive session Of the
senate for consideration Of the treaty
each day until the treaty shall be finally
disposed Of The prevailing opinion is
that the debate will not be prolonged on
the treaty but theories as to the length
of time vary all the way from a week to
a month.
The opposition to the treaty assert
that they have no disposition to prolone
the discussion, owing to their conf
dence in their ability TO defeat the
treaty. They claim 80 votes in opposi-
tion and state that among these there
win be more than one Republican Sem
ator Morrill, adheres to his original de-
termination TO oppose the ratification
resolution, and he is preparing a speech
on that side of the question. The name
of Senator Money on the Democratic
side is added to the list of supporters
of the treaty, making five Democrats
who will certainly favor annexation.
Senator Butler (Pop.), whose position
has not heretofore been generally
known, now announces himself as op-
posed to ratification.
1t may be accepted as true that If the
opponents Of annexation become thor
oughly convinced that they can secure
the one-third vote necessary to accom-
plish that end they will allow the vote
TO come without delay, reserving any
dllatory tactics to which they may be
disposed to resort for use in connection
with the consideration of the joint reso-
luton for annexation which would fol-
low the defeat Of the treaty. This reso-
luton would require only a majority
vote, and IL is conceded on all hands
that the annexationists have the neces-
sary majority.
In open session the calendar presents
many subjects that may receive atten-
tion, including especially the immigra-
tion and the census bill. the latter af-
fording a basis for speeches upon the
civil service. Senator Fairbanks has
/ given notice of a speech on the immi-
grafton bill tomorrow, and Senator But
/ Ter will speak on his resolution on pro-
| viding for the election of federal judges
by the people some day during the
| week

There is not a thing In the rowing

rowing taught by Mr. Lehman az Har-
ward is not the exact English style.
Any sensible man who knows anything
