PLOT TO ROAST HER ALIVE.
Fair University Teacher Locked in
Oil-Saturated Room.

Lincoln, Neb., May 19.--Miss Lethe
Watson. teacher of elocution at Cotner
university, six miles east of Lincoln
was found last night bound and
gagged. unconscious and locked in a
room on the fourth floor of the univer-
sity building When she recovered
she said that the room had been sat
urated with coal oil and the building
was to be burned.
she said that while in her class room
alone she overheard two men plotting
N burn the edificc and that on her
presence being discovered the men
knocked her down. Beyond that she
remembered nothing until after she
had been found by the students in the
building.
The fact that two college buildings
have recently been burned, and Cotner
is insured, it is alleged, beyond its
worth, has added new feature to the
case.
