Events In Various Portions OF 10.
diana Told by Wire

indianapolis. Ind, Dee. 2l.-Positive
evidence has been secured by the state
that the colored man, "Whistling Joe"
Rolla. who was hanged by Spencer
county mob at Bonneville Monday
niC., 4. was innocent of any participa-
ton in the murder of Barber Simon
at Rockport. and IL is now questioned
il he even knew of the deed having
been committed until the day after
il happened When the mob on Sum
day night went to the hotel where
he was employed the proprietor
vouched for Rolla's innocence, and the
frightened negro escaped 10 the roof
of the hotel, and thus eluded the
mob. When arrested the next day
he protested his innocence, and the
sheriff took him To Bonneville for safe
ty 1t is said that he confessed to the
murder when taken out of Jail by
the mob. but eyewitness who heard
all that passed declare that he died
protesting his innocence. almost his
last words being: You are hanging
an innocent man." Subsequent in
vestigations leave no doubts that he
was at the hotel at the time Simon
was killed and had not been away
during the night.

VICTIMS OF THE BoER WAR.

of the War.

Heygate. OF The British array. j. pEr-
chasing 5o.00D cavalry horse and
mules for the British army in South
Africa. He came here more than a
year ago to buy horses and mules
for the British army. but he was or
dered home a short time ago because
il was thought that the Boer war was
over. But the unexpected renewal Of
hostilities has made the purchase of
more horses and mules absolutely
necessary.
As fast as the animals are inspected
and bought they viii be sent 70 New
Orleans and shipped TO Cape. Town.
Durham and New London in British
transports. some OF which are now on
their way 10 the United States.
One ship load of the animals viii
be taken to South Africa by Lieut..
David Il. Moberly, leaving New Or
leans soon after January /. Lieut..
Moberly said:
by the time the horses and mules
are landed in South Africa they cost
the British government $500 head.
THAT IS 4 large price for an animal
which will b, fit for service only six
weeks. Most of the animals die be-
cause of the change Of climate. They
must cross the equator in going 10
South Africa. and the torrid heat 81
the tropics kills them rapidly. The
average death rate on ship board is
80 TO the 1000.
'Forty days after horse IS
purchased IN Kansas City it is
landed in South Africa. 30 great is
the demand for horses at the front
that il is impossible 10 give them the
needed rest after landing before put
ting them into service. Consequent
