Narrowing Crime Committed

Special to The State.

Special to The State.
Wadssboro, \. c, Aug. Ell
A horrid CRIME met = terrible and
swift punishment near McFarlan,
about II miles from here today.
Miss Lena Keith, a highly respect
ed and prominent young woman
of the community was assaulted
and probably fatally injured by
negro named Luke Hough. The
latter was captured soon after his
crime, dragged to the scene and
swung to u limb, after which the
body was literally shot to pieces.
Miss Keith, who is about twen-
ty years of age, lives with her
brother ON farm about one mile
from McFarIan. Shortly after
dinner today Mr.. Keith left home,
going to town, leaving his sister
at the house. He had not been
gone long before negro walked
into the house and asked where he
was. Miss Keith was frightened
at his appearance and tried to de-
celve blm by saying that her
orothsr was at the barn, and
would soon return.
The negro said that he knew Mr.
Keith was not at the barn and
ssizing a chair, he struck the
young woman terrible blow ever
tho Sead shattering the chair and
endering her unconscious. After
Ne had accomplished his purpose,
the negro tried to cut her throat,
evidently using . dull knife. as he
only made II long scar.
After resaining consciousness,
Miss Keith managed to make her
way to tho home of nsighhor,
about 400 yards distant. Just as
she reached the house she again
lost consciousness, falling in a
faint in the yard, and it was some
minutes before she was able to tell
what nd happened She finally
recovered sufficiently to give fair
description of her assailant.
BY this time large crowd had
gathered fir, IN the surrounding
country. Bioodhounds had been
telegraphed for and money was
quickly raised to charter a special
tram to carry them to the scene.
The knife which the negro tried
to use on Miss Keith's throat was
left on tho premises, aud was rec,
ognizsd by one of those present
as belonging to negro named
Luke Hough, who worked on
nearby farm. The crowd imms-
diately set out in search of him,
and when found hs was trying to
wash off his clOthas.
He was Immediately seized, and
admitted his guilt. Pending
decision as to what mode of pun
ishment should be meted out to
him, he was taken to McFarlan
and locked in the guard honss,
while mob of more than $50
surrounded the building. The
rlnsleaders had consultation and
decided that Hough should DO
hanged.
The door of the prison was
burst open, a rope thrown around
tho Degro's neck and he was drag
gsd and kicked to the scene of his
crime, about mile distant. There
the rope was thrown over the limb
of tree, and as the body cleared
the ground -elley after vollsy
was fred into it, the negro being
literally shot to pieces.
The victim of the assault is one
of the most highly esteemed young

termined to drive every negro
from it's precincts.
In addition to the lynching last
night of William Cooley, accused
OF the wanton murder of Miss
Gazelle Wild, and the shooting
to death of bis grandfather,
French Cooley, the mob today
crsnatsd in his home Peter Hanp-
ton, an aged negro, set the torch

stolen from the local companies
arsenal drove dszens of negroes
from town. After noon the ex-
element died down, the mob
gradually dispensing, rather he
cause there vero no negroes upon
whom to Srsak their hatred than
for any other cause. Many of tn.
negroes who fed the city are
hiding In the surrounding woods,
while others have gone greater
distances in seeking safety.
Every negro has loft the town
except a few railway porters
known to he respectable, but
these must also leave. The citi-
zens of Pierce City say that as
negroes have committed several
crimes IN the last ten years none
shall live there in the future.
THE WRONG MAN.
1t is now believed that the man
lynched, William Cooley, was
not the real culprlt. The negro
named Starks, under arrest at
Tulas, l. t., acrsss the border
from here talIies exactly with the
description of the assailant. He
is held there awaiting idsntifica-
ton. Unless the man il brought
back here, it is believed there will
be NO further trouble. If re-
turned hsre he will surely be
lynchsd. Another suspect, Joe
Lark, is under arrest in Spring
field, Mo.
Pierce City is in Laurence
county, in the southwestern part
Of the State. 1t is near the Juno
tion of four railroads and trans
from all directions brought in
large numbers of armed men to-
day bent on bloodshed if necessary.
When the mob went to the sec.
ton of the city occupied by the
negroes, some one in the cabins
opened fire, but no one was hurt.
The moo then destroy Cd the five
houses but the financial loss is
small. Reckless firing broke
several plate glass windo VS. and a
train was fired into. No passsD- :
gers were hurt.
Thirty negro families were
driven from their houses.
THE AWFUL CRIME WHICH CRAZED
THEN.
Now elements in the killing on
Sunday afternoon of Miss Wild
! developed today. 1t appears she
started homo from church alone,
her brother lingering behind.
! About one milo from town the
brother found her with her throat
cut lying lifeless near culvsrt
under which her assailant had at
tempted to drag her. Evidence
of terrible struggle was shown.
A copper coIorsd negro, was seer
sitting on tho bridge short dis
tancs away, a short time before
| the tragedy occurred. 1t is sup
posed that the negro sprang upon
her whom she was passing and at
tempted to force her beneath the
bridge. She probably fought
with such desperation that he
could not accomplish his purpose

THE FORMER FILTERS
Persistent Rumors as to Their
Disposition Leads
to inquiry.
CLAIM THEY ARE sToRED AWAY
Conditions Under Which They
Were Donated to the
Municipality.

During the week rumors have been
in circulation to the effect that the old
waterworks filter plant had been spir-
tied away and disposed of by the adj
ministration and no accounting made
of it's whereabouts.
1t will be recalled that when Hon.
Ben 7. Cable presented the filters as
a supplement to the waterworks gift
of his late father it was stipulated that
whenever they were discarded they
should revert to the owner. Hence
the report that this proviso had been
violated Cccasioned no little indigna-
tion among the friends of Mr.. Cable.
The subject has finally become
one of such general discussion
that Mayor William McConochie and
Supt. of Waterworks e. NJ. Witherell
were interviewed in relation TO the
matter. Both insist that there is no
mystery whatever involved in the
disposition of the filters
Removed and Stored.
The mayor stated that over Two years
ago the filters and two Dean pumps
had been removed and stored in the
building adjoining the waterworks
plant; that they were of no further
use to the city and were held subject
to MIR. Cables orders.
Mr.. Witherell stated that some OF
the wood in the filters had been en-
ployed in building a new floor at the
waterworks, but before it was made
use of he had gained Mr.. Cables
permission. Mr.. Witheren said he
had talked with Mr.. Cable about
the filters aud the latter told him he
would confer with the Dean company
before making final disposition OF
them.
