MOB ATTEMPTS TO LYNCH
Tries to Take Negro from the
Police.

Chicago, Nov. 20-A mob composed
of men and women fought twenty po
licement tonight in an attempt to
lynch Harry Evans, colored arrested
on a charge of assaulting seven-year-
old F'reda Guendal. The two officers
who had charge of negro after free
use of their clubs on the maddened
crowd, finally managed to shove Evans
into the house, where the girl identi-
fed him as her assailant. When the
mob learned that Evans had been iden-
titled by his victim, a wagon load of
bluecoats arrived only just in time to
prevent the crowd from overpowering
the officers and securing the negro. At
ter a fierce struggle in which a score
of people were more or less injured the
police landed Evans safely in Jail

PLAYWRLGHT HOYT DEAD =
Finally Succmm bs to Paresis-Was Hope
full TO the Last.

luA 10 the AiahNs
Charlestown, N. H., Nov. 20.-Charles
Fl. Hoyt, the well known playwright,
died at his residence here at 7:15 o'clock
tonight of paresis, from which he had
been suffering for several months past.
Ever since his return to Charlestown,
after his release from private asylum
in Hartford by order of the court early
in August, it had been known by his
attendants and nearest friends that his
condition was serious and that there
was little or no chance for his recov-
cry, but Mr.. Hoyt apparently had
seemed hopeful of ultimate recovery.
Previous to two weeks ago, there ap-
peared to be slight improvement i'm
his condition, although he had periods
of depression. About two weeks ago,
his appetite failed, and he had a bad
turn, from which he only partially re-
covered. Since that time, he had been
unable to take any except liquid nour-
ishment, but continued to be up and
around his room until yesterday. He
steadily lost strength, and this morn
ing he suffered relapse, became un-
conscious, in which condition he re-
mained until death came this evening.
Mr.. Hoyt had no relatives here and
during his sickness had been attended
by Drs. Brooks of Charlestown and
Billings of Concord, two trained nurses,
and Dr. Davis, who had served as his
valet for the past seven or eight years.
These together with Hon. James o. Ly-
ford, his legal guardian. were in at
tendance at the fine of his faeth Tho
funeral arrangements will not be made
until tomorrow, but it is probable that
the funeral will be held Saturday in or
der to accommodate friends who may
desire to attend from distance

HITLER Will CONTEST.

Cambridge, Mass, Nov 20-Two ad-
ditionaI appeals from the decree of
Judge McIntire of the Middlesex pro-
bate court allowing the will of Frances
B. Hitler, the eccentric woman of Will
mington, have been entered by Attor-
ney f. w. kittredge. The will allowed
is dated April 81, 1900. One appeal is
made by Mr.. Kittredge as executor un-
der a will dated July 1, 1889 and the
other in behalf of Yale university, a
beneficiary of this will. The objections
in both appeals are identical. They are
based on the claim that the testatrix
was of unsound mind, and that undue
influence and fraud We're exerted in the
making of the will

Colonel Callahan was seen at his
home last night and absolutely refused
to talk on the question:. He would not
say a word to any question that was
put to him concerning the resignation
and stated that he had received no no.
tice of his discharge but that he
thought that he would receive it in
short while. Further than this the col
onel said there was nothing doing"
An officer on the colonels staff was
seen and he stated that Colonel Gala
han had resigned and that the resigna-
tion would cause no end of surprise
among local military men in the state.
He said that when the examinations for
the officers of the Second regiment were
called for Monday and Thursday by
Adiutant General Van Keuren, Colonel
Callaha asked if his examination could
be delayed owing to the great amount
of business that had taken his time dur
ing the past few weeks. When it came
time for the examination of the officers
all were present with the exception of
the colonel, Monday being set for the
date of his examination. Adjutant
General Van Keuren refused to grant
the request of Colonel Callahan for an
extension in the time for his eXamina-
ton and therefore the colonel was not
on hand at the appointed time. Colonel
Callahan had stated in his request to
Of the board of assessors his time had
= H., ;x,ta
pecially of late as the work in the tax
appeals had been very pressing. In
consideration of these facts the colonel
thought that an extension of the time
would be granted but such was not the
case, as Adjutant General Van Keu-
ren's reply stated that the examination
would not be put off under any circum-
stances
When this reply was received by Col
onel Callahan he Immediately forward
ed his resignation to the adjutant gen.
eral, which was accepted as stated
above.
The staff officer said: "There has
been some feeling between Colonel Cal
lahan and Adjutant General Van
Keuren and it was known that their re-
lations had not been harmonious for
some time. 1t was even stated once by
General Van Keuren in the presence of
some regimental officers that he wished
to get rid of Colonel Callahan.
"The act" the officer said, lin not
granting an extension in time is con-
to be very discourteous among
military men and it greatly precipitated
the resignation of the colonel. Those
who know the business duties of Col
,nel Callahan say that he was perfectly
justified in asking for postponement
Of the examination"
Colonel Callahan's resignation will be
felt in military circles all over the state
as he was considered one of the best
posted men in the Connecticut National
guard. He has always been very popu-
lar in the Second regiment and his act |
will be regretted by all those connected |
in any way with the state military ser
vice.
Colonel Callahan has been colonel of !
the Second regiment since Colonel Bur-
pee retired.
