Samuel Johnson, a negro was sem
fenced to-day at Oakland, to be hung.
He was convicted last Saturday of
committing a felonious assault on An
ME Keerfoot, a white girl only eleven
years old.
The crime was committed near
Hagerstown on the 25th of last July,
and was one of the most brutal in the
history of Washington county.
The girl is the daughter of canal
boat captain. She had been sent to
a store, when she was met on the road
by Johnson, who seized her and drag
ged her into the woods and ravished
her leaving her almost dead.
When the crime became known John
son was hunted for two days by mobs
determined upon lynching him. He
was finally captured by the sheriff and
safely jailed.
The girl was sent for, accompanied
by her father she went to the Jail. She
identified the negro as her assailant A
mob then went to the Jail to lynch
Johnson. but the father of the girl in
a speech implored the mob to let tie
law take its course, and the crowd dis
persed. The case was removed to
Oakland, where jury found him gull
ty after four minutes deliberation.

BROKE TIE PACING RECORD.
Bumps a Litlle Brown Chicago
GeldIng Did 1t.
A MILE PACED IN 2:03A, WHICH
CLIPS A SECOND AND A HALF
OFF THE RECORD HELD BY JOE
PATCHEN.

LOUISVILLE, KY. September 81
Amid the enthusiastic plaudits of big
crowd at the fair grounds to-day, the
little brown gelding Bumps, owned by
W. X. Billings, of Chicago, trained by
C. R. Bentley, and driven by W. l..
Snow, broke the worlds pacing record
of 2:04A, held by Joe Patchen. The
mile was paced in 2:03A, a second and
a half better than the record. The lit
tie gelding, moving like a piece of
clock work, did not once falter during
the journey from wire to wire, and
reeled off the quarters with the low
swinging stride of the trained cam
paigner. H. finished the mile in the
best time ever made to a wagon. The
first quarter was paced in 80 seconds
fat Thirty seconds more took him to
the half in one minute. Still moving
with that steam engine-like regularity,
Bumps went to the three-quarter pole
in 81 seconds more, having travelled all
but the final quarter of his mile in
1:31. The grandstand, wildly excited,
rose to its feet. Would the little PAGER
hold out in his wonderful burst of
speed? The question was soon an
swered, for in 32A seconds more Bumps
had passed under the wire in 2:03A for
the mile, the holder of a new worlds
record. Trainer Bentley was beside
himself with excitement and pleasure,
as the crowd surged out on the track
and almost smothered him with con-
gratulations The track was fast, but
a light wind was blowing. But for this
the mark set by Bumps to-day would
have been still lower Bumps Is

MANILA, September 27, 6:12 p. M
The insurgents are trying to incite the
natives of Malabon, a city OF 10000 in
habitants, five miles from Manila, to
rise against the American garrison.
Captain Allen has been holding the
place with two companies of the Six
teenth infantry, but on account of the
need of all the available men at the
front, his force has been reduced to
seventy men. They now remain near
the big church where they are quarter
tered, being too few in number to at
tempt to patrol the town. Armed, uni
formed parties of insurgents recently
disembarked from Cascoes and during
the night, collected money for the in
surrection and preached revolt. Two
mayors have been elected but both of
them have declined to serve.
Malabon has been made the shipping
point whence provisions and other
stuff are brought from Manila by trains
and shipped into the hostile territory.
The insurgents seem to be trying to
make their good treatment of Ameri-
can prisoners a card by which to gain
outside sympathy. Two Englishmen
who have arrived here from Tarlac, re-
port that the Americans are treated
more like guests than prisoners. They
are fed on the best that the country
affords and everything is done to gain
their favor.
The Englishmen also say the Fill
pinos have offered all the Americans
commissions in their army and that
three of them accepted. This is not be-
lieyed.
American officers north of Manila
tell the correspondents Of the Associat-
ed Press that Aguinaldo is attempting
to force good government after the Am
erican fashion, ordering his soldiers to
suppress a band of robbers, three of
whom were executed at Mariquima. He
has also prohibited gambling in the
villages under his control Palermo,
the president of the so-called Filipino
cabinet, has fallen into disfavor among
the Filipinos on account of his peace
proclivities They suspect him of
planning to repeat his treachery of the
