The Carpenter Company,

The E. j. Carpenter Company in the
Russian melodrsma, For HeF- Sake
will be seen at Central Opera House on
Saturday, September ID, promises to be
the melodramatic treat of the season.
Wherever it has been presented the
press and public generally voice but
one opinion: at Is much the best Rus
sian play yet written" The fact that
every stitch of scenery used in its pre-
sentation is carried, the costuming cor
rect, and the company very capable
one, all tend to make it one of the most
satisfactory productions of the fading
company.

The HOSE DEAL
Agent Arch Harris Expected Here
Tomorrow to Confer.
Alleged False Affidavit

There is renewed activity among
the fire hose men since the city coun-
fernandez the order for the Anchor
Brand Of hose a few days ago. Mayor
Yeiser stated this morning that he
had heard nothing from the company
in regard to the order since he tele.
graphed the countermand, but under
stands Mr.. Arch Harris, the COM
pany's representative, will be here to
morrow to see what can be done in the
matter.
1t IS reported that he is likely to be
arrested for alleged false swearing if
he comes. 1t is claimed that he stat
ed under oath that he never offered
this hose anywhere at less than sl.05
a foot and the city has conclusive
proof that he offered it at Bard
we'll at 30 cents a foot, with the un.
Outstanding that 10 per cent would be
knocked off il necessary.
The other hose men have been TAX
ing a great deal of interest in the deal
since it was declared off, and where
the order will go remains to be seen.
1t is claimed that the company that
has been taking the most interest in
the affair and doing the most to have
the deal declared of wanted to
charge the city sl.i5 for the same
hose that it offered Cairo at 30 cents,
making the difference IN its piite
greater than that OF the National
India Rubber company.
In the meantime the city is in i'm
minent danger from its lack Of fi-e
hose. At the recent fire the hose
burst in several places.

A Rather Unusual Story Of a Nc
Cracker Couple.
Husband Left in Fit Of Anger and
Was Gone Two Years-Now
His Wife Is Mad.
SHE WON'T TAKE HIM BACK

A very strange separation took place
down in the edge of McCracken county
the other day, says the Mayfeld Mes
senger. Fifteen years ago o young
man and woman got married and soon
afterward he told his wife that If she
ever quarreled with him he would
leave her and never live with her
again. They lived together until two
years ago when they quarreled.
He picked up his clothes and left
and was gone two years. She was at
that time the mother of three child
rem. She never complained but went
right along with the work on their
little farm as though nothing had hap
pened. Not long since he came back
and asked her IL she would ever quar-
rel with him again. She told him
that she would not live with him
again and he could leave and stay
away from her.
He supposed she was only testing,
but she was firm in her position and
would have nothing to do with him
in any way. He has begged and
threatened her and did everything to
get her to relent, but she so far has
remained firm and immovsble in her
position. He is now q wreck and al
most a crazy man and it is thought
that II his wife don't receive him
back again that he will finally become
insane.
The only thing sho ever says is that
when a man so far forgets himself as
to walk away and leave his wife
and children without any cause, he
can stay left, so far as she is con-
cerned; that she will die in the poor
house before she will ever live with
him again.

Mr.. D. J. Levy Arrested on Felony
Warrant Last Night.
Charged with Being Accessory in q
Burglary-Habeas Corpus Pro-
ceedings Tried Today.
WILL PROBABLY COME CLEAR

mt. ~. u. Levy, tne secOnu MANU-
dealer and pawnbroker Of South Sec.
ond street, was arrested last night by
Captain Henry Bailey on . warrant
from Lexington, KY, charging him
with being an accessory after the fact
to the burglary of the Van Deren
hardware establishment at Lexington,
KY, on the night OF April 25 last.
The warrant is poorly drawn by
magistrate named J. B. Payne, and
no bond is Endorsed on it.
The arrest occasioned some little
excitement, as Mr.. Levy is one Of the
best known merchants on Second
street, and the arrest is the culmina-
ton of an investigation that began
several days ago when three men
named Williams, Thompson and Mar
tin, in Jail at Henderson for attempt
ing to hold up saloon keeper, wrote
Mr.. Levy that they were in Jail there
and wanted $50 to get out. They
wanted him 70 send them the money,
alleging that they had sold him goods
stolen at Lexington. The letter fell
into the hands of the police, and they
turned 1t over to the Lexington auth
critics.
An investigation revealed the fact.
that Mr.. Levy had half dozen or
more fine pistols for sale, which upon
examination proved to have been
stolen In the Lexington hardware
burglary. Captain Slough, chief Of the
Lexington detectives, came here and
made an investigation and upon TAX
ing the three men in Jail ct Hender-
son to Lexington. had the warrant is
sued against Mr. Levy.
There is nothing In the case. it ap-
pears, except that Mr.. Levy bought
the pistols. He claims he got them
for $50 from q stranger here during
the carnival. and thought the man was
drummer. The man had been gam
bling, and first pawned two suits Of
light sclothes which were in a Dire S.
suit case. He lost this money and
came back, presenting a sample pistol,
and saying he had seven or eight more
like it he wished to dispose of, as he
had been losing and wa nted to raise
some money. He took Mr.. Levy to
the Palmer house, and on the fourth
floor, in the corridor on couch, the
deal was contaminated, the pistols
being wrapped in red flannel, and sold
for $50.
The deal was made with the UNDER
standing that the man could have
them back IN two days IL he won and
secured the money. He never came
back, and the pistols were placed on
sale AMI were open to the inspection
of the public. Mr.. Levy claims he
thought the man who sold them was

some of the games here. and was

would send them the money they

Clayton. Miss. July i7-In the
presence of 500 outraged and indig-
nant citizens, who focked into this
village from every railroad station

and from the surrounding country,
James Obey, negro brute, was
burned last night.
At q late hour in the afternoon Obey
attempted a criminal assault upon
Miss virgie Tucker, daughter Of
James Tucker. one of the most res
pected and substantial citizens Of
Tunic county.
Driving in her buggy alone through
q solitary wood on the outskirts Of the
village, Miss Tucker passed the negro,
who was standing at the roadside.
When about twenty feet from him he
called to her, and told her that bun.
die had fallen from her buggy. Miss
Tucker checked her horse. She
reached forth her hand to receive q
bundle which the negro held In his
hand. As she did so she was seized
violently by both arms. She screamed
as the negro held her arms in his vice
like grasp She resisted with all her
force, but was inhumsnly dragged
from the vehicle. In the struggle both
her arms were broken. and she was
hurled to the ground unconscious.
DR.. Hit, Q physician Of Clayton,
returning from q professional call.
came In view. and Obey fed. Miss
Tucker was placed in her buggy and
taken to the home Of DR.. Hit. Not
only were both arms broken, but the
brute had either struck her on the
head or kicked her with his heavy
shoe. resulting in 9 fracture of the
skull
Miss Tucker regained consciousness
shortly after arriving at the home Of
the physician, but is still in critical
condition, with little hope Of re Gov

phis was notified and blood hounds
asked for.
The negro was captured, after an
exciting chase, by Carl Wellington
shortly sfter.9 o'clock.
At 1880 O'Clock the line OF march
was taken.up. to the scene of the brutal
crime. The negro marched in the
center Of the column. Lanterns and
torches lighted the darkness of the
lonely road as the weird procession
moved to the scene Of the execution.
Many men had bundles of fsgots in
their arms. Others carried cans of
oil.
The brute begged to be placed in
Jail. saying that he would tell the
truth il they would not burn him.
Then he begged that they would hang
him. His supplications were vain.
Strong arms bound his writhing body
to tree. Fagots were piled about
him until they reached higher than
his head. Gallons Of oil were poured
upon the pile.
When all was in readiness James
Tucker, the father of the negro's VIC
tim, stepped forward and applied the
match to the fagots. Instantly the
writing body was robed in sheet Of
flames. The fire leaped and cfackled
and Missed about his head. throwing .
lurid light into the faces OF the 500
men standing around.
