MEANS BUSINESS.
Tennessee Mob Making It Hot
For Rayishers.
One Lynched and Two Others
viii Be When They Are
Captured.

Fulton, KY, Feb. 20. The Mob
at Dyersburg, Tenn, took Beebee
Montgomery from the Jail at Dyers-
burg last night and swung him up
to the limb of the famous "Mike
Lynching tree" five times, letting
him down each time he was haul
ed up to make him confess his com
plicity in the assault with Fred
King upon Miss Alice Arnold.
The negro denied his guilt and
finally the mob carried him back to
Jail, more dead than alive and de-
livered him to the iailer.
The mob was led by an organic
ed vigilance committee who decided
not to lynch Montgomery until the
third guilty negro was found, whom
King implicated in his confession.
This negro is being sought for by
detectives. The vigilance swears
that when he is found the two will
be lynched together. There is hard
ly any doubt that Montgomery will
be lynched this week.
In his confession, King said they
had slated FIVE of the best young
women of Dyresburg for the assault
and this is the cause of the spirit of
vengeance among the citizens. A
number of negroes were whipped
out of Dyersburg last night.

Judge Hazen, of Topeka, seems tC
have found a way to stop Mrs
Nations crusade. She was arrest
ed on a warrant charging an inten'
tional breach of the peace and a
peace bond fixed at $1,000. AS she
declared she would continue to
smash saloons, no one could be
found to go on her bond and she
was placed in Jail Monday and has
not yet been released In the mean
while the Carrie Nation Home De-
tenders" have organized at Winfield,
Wellington, Harrington, Arkansas
City and many other towns and
issued ultimatums to the saloon
keepers. In a resort to arms at
one place on Tuesday while raid
ing, the wife of the bartender, Mrs,
Hudson was killed and two other
bystanders wounded. This is the
first loss of life resulting so far from

ROYAL CHANGE.
Edward Shakes All of His Old
Friends.

London, Feb, 21.-King Edward
is giving his erstwhile sporting
friends the "trozen face and the
'.marble heart. 1t is Prince Hal
at the dawn of the Twentieth cen
fury. But the poor and discarded
Falstaffs are being counted by the
score. The latter victim of roy al
caprice is Lord Marcus Beresford.
"Marky, as all male royalty
called him, was the Prince of
Wales chief functionary in racing
matters. In fact, he was Albert
Edwards crony, On Saturday
Lord Beresford called on the king
and, extending his hand, exclaimed:
'Howdy?"
"Good morning, Lord Marcus
Beresford. And then the new
king turned away, leaving Beres-
ford the object of sympathetic
chances from all around. The
snubbed nobleman retired in tears
and now all London is asking:
"Who will be the next Falstaff to
receive the icicle- stare?"

commemorate the battle which was
fought April and 7, 1862. 1t is

to mark the place her regiment
held. Many other states have
placed marks and monuments all
