Fate Which Awaits "BOssie" Francis
Should He Be Caught by
the Mob.

Kansas City, Mo-, Aug. 31.-Armed
men and bloodhounds early Friday
morning again took up the search 40
mes south of Kansas City, for ''Bos-
ST." Francis, the murderer of Miss
Mary Henderson. Notwithstanding
the failure of the mob Thursday.
after they had apparently had him in
the tolls, the man hunt that has been
kept up in two counties for the past
as hours, was resumed Friday with
renewed vigor and will be continued
until the negro is finally run down.
A council of Francis pursuers has
already decided that his punishment
shall be meted out at the stake. w.
C. Hyatt, Miss Henderson's brother
in-law, approves of this method of
dealing with the negro.
Gov. Dockery Friday offered a re-
ward OF $500 for the capture of the
murderer, and Johnson county Off
cials a reward of 500.
A special to the Star from Holden,
Mo-, says: AT noon Friday the pre-
vailing impression seems to be that
"Bossie'' Francis, the negro murder
er, has escaped. How and when he
got away is simply a matter of con-
lecture, however. The negroes about
here who care to discuss the subject
seem to think that Francis has left
johnson county, skirted Kansas City,
and gone to Kansas, a haven, accord
ing to their belief, for members of
their race. Those of the whites who
are best acquainted with the negro
cling to the belief that he is still in
the neighborhood of the Blackwater
coal mines
