agitator, who visited Richmond a few
days ago, was hanged in eftigy Friday

it was, and he hurried to the scene.
The object was placarded, and had Writ
ten on 1t In bold and plain handwriting
the name of Miss Lillian Clayton Jewett'
and a denunciation of her as a South
hater' and enemy of the negro.
The only colors on the object were black

a piece Of white cloth filed with the same
material. The feet, encased in black
stockings, protruded some distance from
a white underskirt. that completed the

long rope. tied around the neck, was
swung over the limb of the tree, and was
held in, position by a chunk of wood.

spicuous position. attracted the attention
of a number of passers-by, and a crowd
of BOYS soon gathered.

GALVESTON, TBXAS Sept. 15.-The
exodus from Galveston grows in number
as the facilities for getting away from
the stricken city are increased. Boats
left here to-day more frequently than on
any day since the storm. Some are pro-
ceeding to Houston via Buffalo Bayou
and others making connection at Texas
City with the Great Northern Railroad
train. Among those who departed today
We're General McKibbin and Lieutenants
Ferguson and Perry. General McKibbin
will communicate with the War Depart
ment on his arrival in Houston and thence
ness which is requiring his attention. Be
fore leaving he was solicited by the au-
thorities to return, and expects to do so
within the next four or five days.
The news which was printed here this
morning in the shape of a personal tele-
gram from Vice-Pcesident Huntington, of
the Southern Pacific, that that road is
not to abandon Galveston, has created
intense satisfaction and has materially
accelerated the movement for the speedy
reconstruction Of the city.
ARE SANGUINE,
DR.. W. II. Biount, State Health Officer,
to-day printed a statement showing that
no apprehensions are justified that sick
ness will result from the overflow just ex-
perienced. He shows that in 1867, in the
midst of the widespread epidemic of yell
low fever, a severe storm occurred at Gal
weston in the early days of October, re-
sulting in q deposit over a greater portion
of the city of Shiny mud. Not only did no
sickness result, but the cyclonic disturb
ance cut short the yellow fever epidemic,
and but few cases of fever occurred there
after In 1873 and~1ss6. when there were
severe storms and no overflow, no Increase
in sickness occurred.
