and how at last, shortly before her
departure from that country, she saw
in few weeks thirty or forty Of these
savage animals, and was successful in
killing one herself. She was with
her husband on the Athi River. The
plains were covered with short grass.
At half past five in the afternoon they
climbed into a tree, sent their men
and horses back to the camp, had an
excellent dinner, and then began their
respective watches. OF these silent
night watches Mrs. Hinde says:
"As the night draws on, the grasses
rustic beneath the stealthy footsteps
Of jackals, and suddenly one hears
the weird cry OF a hyena, which is
taken up ON all sides. Later come the
antelope and zebras, and the rushing
sound Of a herd galloping past, and
last of all the grunt which 'swells
gradually to the heart-quaking roar of
the lion.
"A startled stiffness follows, and then
nearer and nearer comes the grunting,
till the lion himself appears, walking
very slowly, and stopping every few
yards to roar and roar"
On this particular night the watchers
heard the lions cracking the bones Of
their prey in the patch of grass in
front. When the meal was over, they
began to play, and the noises they
made suggested mammoth tom-cats.
Each repeated the call in turn, and
the grass rustled and swayed as they
leaped aJout
1T was in the hush of early morn.

picked up half the zebra in his mouth

"As 1 woke my husband, the lion
which was then about forty yards off
charged straight toward him, and with

we afterward discovered, tearing his

He struggled up again, and it was not
until the third shot that he finally

tan and Breuil, who have come upon
100 figures engraved upon cavern

of which are now extinct. No fewer
than 40 are presentments of horses
and horse-like creatures-of two dis
tinct types. Very ancient though
these remains are going back to the
close of the palaeoithic period, they
point to the fact that even then the
horse was a domesticated animal in
Western Europe, for several of the fig

Solicitor Hammer May Have
Names Of Several,
THE GOVERNOR HAS BEEN MUCH WORRIED
BE Appeals to All Thoughtful and
Law Abiding People in the State to
Uphold His Hands in SURPRISING
This Form of LaWlessness.

Governor Aycock yesterday morning
issued a proclamation offering $500 re
ward for the arrest and conviction of
each member of the mob that lynched
the two negro boys, Harrison and
James Gillespie, who were taken from
the Jail at Salisbury on the morning Of
June 18th and hanged without process
of law, for the murder OF Miss Benson.
AS it has been estimated that there
we're twenty-five persons in the mob, the
total reward offered amounts to $4,000.
This is an entirely unprecedented sum
for the chief executive to offer, and it
looks as if he were determined to do
everything to the uttermost to arrest
those who fagrantly disregarded law
and order. This will lead to important
disclosures, if anything will.
The issuing of this proclamation was
about the first thing the Governor did
upon his return from Cooleemee yes
terday morning. Col. P. NJ. Pearsall,
the Governors Secretary, drew up the
paper, and the Governor signed it.
Solicitor Hammer is now in Salisbury
and is at work on this case. He thinks

The Lake of Dismal Swamp.
lBY Moore

Tom" Moore wrote this poem in 1903
or 1904, while visiting Norfolk, Va,
which is in ten miles of the Dismal
Swamp, made famous by Harriet
Beecher Stoves story of "Dred." The
legend that inspired the poet is that of a
young man who lost his mind on the
death of the girl he loved, and was pos
sessed with the idea that she was not
dead, but gone into the Dismal Swamp.
One day he disappeared and was never
heard of again, the supposition being
that he went to seek her in the swamp
and either starved or was lost in the
vast morasses.
They made her a grave, too cold and
damp
For a soul SO warm and true;
And she's gone to the Lake of Dismal
Swamp,
Where all night long, by a FREELY lamp,
She paddles her white canoe.
And her FREELY lamp 1 soon shall see,
And her paddle | soon shall hear;
Long and loving our life shall be,
And III hide the maid in a cypress
tree,
When the f~ootstep of Death is near"
Away to the Dismal Swamp he speeds
His path was rugged and sore,
Through tangled juniper, beds OF reeds,
Through many a fen where the serpent
feeds
And man never trod before.
And whom on earth he sank to sleep,
If Slnmhar his nvaliIc Jypour
He lay, where the deadly vine doth
weep
It's venomous tear, and nightly steep
The flesh with blistering dew.
And near him the she-wolf stirred the
brake,
And the copper snake breathed in his
Till he starting cried, from his dream
awake,
Oh! when shall I see the dusky lake.
And the white canoe of my d ar? p"
He saw the lake, and a meteor bright
Quick over it's surface played
"Welcome," he said, 'my dear ones
light
And the dim shore echoed for many a
night
The name of the death-cold maid.
Till he followed % boat of the birchen
bark,
Which carried him off from shore:
Far, far he followed the meteGr's spark,
The wind was high ;tnd the clouds were
dark,
And the boat retur ned no more.
But oft, from the II dian hunte,.s camp
This lover and ma id so true
Are seen, at the hour OF midnie hit damn

And paddle their own canoe

go to the very bottom OF this lndelen-
sible l%ynching.
Governor Aycock has been very much
worried about the matter. The DoyS
charged with the murder were under ar
rest and in Jail, with the certainty OF a
speedy trial, and the crime Tor Whlcfl
they were lynched was not the CRIME
for which lynching is ordinarily the
penalty in the South, and sometimes IN
other parts of the country. HOW Tar
lynching will 20 and for what crimes II
will be practised cannot be determined.
1t is a form of laWlessness which grows
and nothing can stop it but an enlight-
ened pubic sentiment. The Governor
appeals to all thoughtful and law
abiding people in the State to uphold
his hands in suppressing it.
4 gentleman from Salisbury yesterday
said that there was very grave doubt as
to the guilt of the Younger of the two
negroes recently lynched at salisbury.
He SAYS that the parents of the two
boys affirmed all the time that the
younger boy was at home at the moment
of the commission of the crime, while
they readily agreed that the elder one
was from home. He states that the
younger boy died protesting his inno-
cence and singing, Il want to go to
Heaven when I die" The Gentleman
making this statement is a mar we'll
known in the State and has held respon-
sible positions. He says moreover that
there was only one track at the scene
of the murder and this track correspond
ed with the track of the elder. and not
of the younger. If these statements
turn out to be true the 1ynching becomes
all the more horrible. 1t is high time
for the public opinion of the State to
rise up and put a stop to this form of
laWlesSness.
