from Gov. w. T. Durbin. in reference to
the resolution recently passed regarding
smallpox was read. The resolution re-
ferred to Is one calling on the Governor
to use the $4,000 contingent fund in stamp
ing out smallpox. Governor Durbin says:
"A copy of the resolution passed has been
received. 1 have received others of exact
tenor sent me. which reinforces the con-
clusion reached, when the first one was re-
ceived, that there is movement to have
as many city councils throughout the State
as possible indorse and forward such reso-
lutions to me.
The State is not called upon to take on
itself the duties and responsibilities of
localities until they shall first exhaust their
own resources. When the time shall ar
rive that 1t is necessary for that fund, or
any part thereof, to be used along the line
for which II was appropriated, there will
be no disposition to withhold it. AS / con-
strue 1t, the fund is to be used to prevent
the entrance of epidemic and contagious
diseases.
For your information would state that
the new fiscal year will begin with the
1st of November at which time the State
Board Of Health will have at its disposal
$1,000 for the preventing of infectious and
contagious diseases"

for Sheriff Wiliams's arrival forcibly took
the cell keys from Murphy and, breaking
into the jail door with sledge hammers.
took the prisoner from his cell, notwith-
standing the protest of Sheriff Williams,
who had arrived in the meantime.
The mob took the negro to a point about
half a mile east of town. bound him, piled
wood around him and set fire to it. The
negro begged piteously for his life but the
mob turned deaf ears. In a short time the
flames leaped up and he expired in the
presence of the several hundred men COM
posing the mob.
After Young had been put to death the
mob started in quest Of another negro al
legged to have been implicated in the killing
