Negro Tried, Condemned and Hanged
 in a Day.

ln 8 Day.
 E NACOGDOGl1u4S, Tex, Oct. 1S.-~ Jim Buchanan. colored, the murderer of the Hicks family, was tried here yesterday. The plea of guilty was ac- cepted by the judge, and the negro was legally hanged within two hours after sentence had been passed.
 Ten days ago the dead bodies of Farmer Hicks, his wife and daughter were found in the Hicks home. A week later Jim Buchanan was arrested and confessed to the triple murder.
 Buchanan was taken to Shreveport to escape lynching and later was re- moved to the jail at Henderson, where be was guarded by militia. He was brought to Nacogdoches yesterday un- der the protection of five companies of state troops.
 Upon his arrival here the negro was turned over to Sheriff Spradley, who told the people he would be given speedy trial. The town began to fill up rapidly, telegraph wires were cut, the railroad tracks were torn up for short distance, and it was announced that an attempt would be made to get possession of Buchanan.
 The district court was at once con vened, jury was impaneled without delay, and the negro's plea of guilty was accepted by the court. The judge ordered that the death sentence be exc cuted Nov. 17, but many people an nounced that they would not allow de- lay. Buchanan then waived the thir- ty days allowed him by law and was hanged by Sheriff Spradley in the jail yard in the presence of large crowd.

Work Of Railways.

To-day towns do not grow mere y
because Of their location. and this
factor of location will become less
and less important as the years 90 by.
Chicago Is situated upon the most i'm
possible and unloyely of all places Of
human habitation She is simply a
city OF transportation. and is no bet
ter than her rails and boats, though
by her rails and boats she lives in
every western state and territory.
The same is true OF st. Louis and the
vast southwest One railroad recently
planned for western extension, and
laid out along its lines the sites OF
thirty-eight new towns, each Of
which was located and named before
the question of inhabitants for the
towns was ever taken up. Another
railway in the southwest has name
fifty cities that are yet to build, and
still Others have scores of commune
ties which in time are to be the bat
tlegrounds of human lives, the stages
OF the human tragedy or comedy. The
railways have not only reached but
created provinces; they have not only
nourished but conceived communities.

er, is the daughter of Hungarian peas
ants OF the village of Macy, Koros.
1t is claimed for Therese that no
child of her age in the history of the
infantile world ever weighed as much
as she does. She tips the scale at
120 pounds, as much as the average
adult woman.
Her cousin, Marissa Juhasz, though
two years her senior, weighs ten
pounds less. What is most remark
able about the pair is that their pa
rents are sturdy Magyar farmers Of
ordinary height and avoirdupois.
The two fat Hungarian girls have
been pronounced to be perfectly
healthy by the professors of the state
medical college at Buda-Pesth. Though
they have had dattering offers from
museum managers, their parents, who
are far from wealthy, have thus far
refused to allow them to be taken
abroad. They have beeen on exhibit
ton only in the Hungarian capital.
