Widely Known Army Nurse Cut His
Throat.

Luther B. Hunt. "a, committed suicide
early Monday morning by cutting his
throat with a razor at the home of John
A. Parker in st. Adams where he lived
with his adopted son. II. A. Wetherbee.
Mr.. Hunt was one of the most widely
known men in Franklin county. He was
a tinsmith in Chicago when the civil war
broke out, but he volunteered as nurse,
and he did great service during the small
pox epidemic when he had charge of the
army pest house. He dwelt alone with
the sick men, nursing back to health
those who had the strength to recover,
and burying those who succumbed to the
dreaded disease. When the war was over
he returned to ST. Adams. He was pos
sessed of means sufficient for his mainte-
nance but he took up the work of nurs-
ing because he liked to befriend helpless
humanity His fame as nurse spread
all through Vermont, northern New YORK
and lower Canada. He was one of those
gentle creatures who had an instructive
sense of healing.

War on Nearoes in pierce City, Mo.

For nearly 10 hours ending about noon
Tuesday, Pierce City, Mo-, town of
5000 people, was in the hands of mob
of armed whites, determined to drive
every negro from its precincts. In add
ton to the lynching Monday night of
William Cooley, accused of the wanton
murder of Miss Gazelle Wild, and the
shooting to death of his grandfather,
French Cooley, the mob cremated Peter
Hampton, an aged negro, in his home,
set the torch to the houses of five blacks
and with the aid of state militia rifles,
stolen from the local company's arse
nal, drove dozens of negroes for town.
1t is believed that Cooley was not the
culprit but that man named Stark,
who is under arrest in Indian Territory,
assaulted Miss wild.
