NEGRO WAR IN ARKANSAS
LYNcHINGs BY WHOLESALE.
many are Being Killed on the Border
Lihe-A Race War Feared-Whites Are
me Aggressive-Negros Are Aiming
Themselves for Protection.

IeXarkana, March 25.-Details of the
wholesale lynchings reported to have oc-
CURED IN Little River county, Arkansas,
are slow in coming in.
Three more dead negroes have been
round IN the Red River bottoms near
ROCKY Comfort, Ark Two of them, Joe
hlhS and Moses Jones, were hanged and
Shot TO death. The third body was
stripped entirely naked when found.
a justice of the peace held an inquest
over these bodies today, and verdict was
rendered by the jury declaring the men
came to their deaths from natural
causes OF were frozen to DEATH" The
verdict Is regarded as gruesome joke.
Ihere Is some doubt as to where these
lynchings occurred, it being near the state
llne' and was either in Little River coun.
~ Arkansas, or in Bowie county, Texas.
Ihe inquest was held by Texas Justice
OF the peace.
Joe hlhg was one of the negroes who
was whipped by crowd of whites Wed.
nesday near Comfort. just after the
lynching of Duckett, a constable went to
King and told him Duckett had been
lynched Tor the assassination OF farmer
at Stockton. King replied he knew all
ABOUT the Stockton killing, and said the
farmer ought to have been killed sooner.
ana also lntimated that others would be
Killed before the matter was settled. 4
crowd OF indignant whites soon had him
III charge and took him to the woods,
where ne was thoroughly whipped and re-
leased. 1t Is not known where or by
Whom he afterwards was strung up, but
ne no doubt fell into the hands of one of
the lynching parties that were organized
after the plots of the negroes to start
race war were unearthed.
Many sensational reports are reaching
here today from the scene of disturb.
ance, but very little authentic information
Is gathered. One report states the whites
are still out in organized posses hunting
the leaders of the negro revolutionary plot
with the avowed intention OF stringing
them up wherever found. Another report
states the negroes are recovering from
their qanicky terror, and are securing arms
and threaten vengeance OH the whites. Ii
this proves true, serious trouble may re-
suit.
A colored man who arrived here today
from Winston says all the negroes in the
neighborhood OF Rocky Comfort and Rich.

MINING MOTEL

1t is announced that small smelter
is soon to be erected on the Uncle Sam
mine, near Bossburg. This smelter is
to be built by the capitalists owning

will cost between $4,000 and $4,000
The smelter will be of sufficient ca
pacity to handle 100 tons per day.
The biggest years yield of the Com
stock was in 1876. the coin value of
that years production being $3S,572,-
9S4
The gold output of the Cripple
Creek, Col district for the month of
February, was $1,257 $50, and the diyi-
dends declared aggregated $37S,000.
The largest amount of revenue
stamps required by any new mining
company in the west on it's stock issue
since the present revenue law was en-
acted will be that required by the new

! famous organization sometimes irrev-
erenty termed the Sacred Twenty

The Prescott Courier tells of a dis
coyery made near Montezuma Wells
consisting of blanket-like deposits OF
a peculiar clay, which it is believed
the prehistoric people of Arizona used
in the manufacture of the pottery
which is now discovered in ancient
tombs and mines. Upon exposure to
the air, this clay becomes as hard as
stone, but quickly dissolves in water
1t glitters with mica. 1t Is apparently
not affected if subjected to a white
heat.

4 Double Murder.

Bowling Green, Ohio, March go T.
Westenhaver of North Baltimore, one of
the best known attorneys in this county,
was murdered at Hoytsville shortly after
noon yesterday. He was trying case
against Paul and John Zeltner for attor-
ney fees and when the court adjourned at
noon the brothers demanded certain pa
pers, which he refused to surrender.
John Ieltner fired at the attorney, who
ran out OF doors, the bali striking West
enhaven in the right side. Four more
shots were fired at him, but did not take
effect. At the corner of the building Paul
Ieltner met him and fired two shots at
the attorney, one striking the leg and the
other going into his forehead. Death re-
suited in few minutes.
After the murder the Zeltners fled to
their home, pursued by a crowd of several
hundred men. The Zeltners stood boldly
in their yard all the early part of the
afternoon and deiied arrest. There was a
frequent exchange of shots between the
fugitives and the crowd at long range, and
"a man named Wittenmyer, who crossed
an open space, was shot through the
heart and instantly killed Sheriff Kings
bury and posse of deputies were soon on
the scene, but the fusillade of shots kept
up by the Zelners prevented any effort
being made to capture them.
