All his tricks and wiles he'll try,
Tempting you as best he can;
He is such a shrewd and sly,
Clever little man.

Terrible Fate Mel by Fulton County
Whitecapper.

Mammoth Spring, Ark, July
3'-Details have reached here Of
frightful tragedy which oc-
Cured at Union, q small village
in this county, yesterday morn
ing in which Pink Gibson, a we'll
known citizen, was blown to
atoms and nine other men more
or less seriously injured, The
case as reported is a most pecu-
liar one. Harvey Sexton re-
ceived warning that a band Of
whitecappors were to visit his
house with the avowed intention
of killing him and dynamiting
the building. Sexton barricaded
the doors and with a rifle kept a
sharp lookout.
Yesterday morning the alleged
whitecappers made their appear
ance and Sexton fired only one
shot, the bullet striking Pink
Gibson in the stomach and pass
ing through the pocket in which
a stick of dynamite was carried.
Immediately there was.a terrific
explosion, and the ground for a

stampede to get away, and the
next day another fellow unknown
and hitherto unseen in the COM
munity bought up the land for a
mere song.
Of course the trick was dis
covered and the scientist and the
negro were captured. 1t was de-
cided that they should hang from
the same limb. The white man
demurred. He admitted that he
and the negro had been brought
up together-indeed, in their
youth they had drawn sustepance
from the same black nanny; he
said that he and the colored man
had studied the same books to-
gether and had stolen melons,
but that out of respect for himself
he could not afford to swing with
him from the same tree. To his
plea they listened considerably,
and then Bill Clendennin spoke
up, saying that the feeling Of a
refined white man ought to be
respected.
So it was decided that they
should be hanged on different
trees; and shall never forget the
gratitude that beamed forth from
the eyes Of the scientist. Gen
tleman' he said, you place me
under lasting obligations, and |
am sure that I shall remember
you as long as live. Tom, he
continued, speaking to the negro,
goodby,' and they shook hands.

man anu Il Negro, ClOocIJ dooOCA
ated in counerfeiting, committed
murder and were sentenced to be
hanged on the same gallows.
The white man objected and pc
titioned the supreme court to
grant to him the distinction of
beng hanged excessively, that is,
alone.
The fact that he was to be
hanged didn't seem to worry him.
He accepted it as matter Of
course, but he argued that to
wander off into eternity in COM
pany with negro went against
his convictions.
1t was his belief that in the
hereafter there must exist an
amstocracy and that to 60 stroll
ing up to the gate in company
with his life companion would
initiate against his standing. In
his petition to the court he said
that it was a reflection on the
white race. He might have gone
a step further and under recent
enactments demarded that the
negro should be required to read
and construe the American
constitution before being permitt-
ed to enjoy the gallows privil-
eyes.
He admitted that the man was
a genial companion and an able
counterfeiter, and that lie was
possessed of other accomplish
ments. He could sing, pick a
banjo and cut a threat with nim-
bleness and dispatch but these
attributes did not entitle him to
the privilege Of being hanged
with white man.
That there has always existed
a certain sort Of honor among
thieves is a we'll established be-
lief, but scaffoldpride is compara-
lively new. There have been
several instances of penitentiary
precedence, notably when a con-
vict in the Arkansas penitentiary
objected to sitting at the table
with a companion of the stone
pile. Col. Zeb Ward, lessee of
the prison, was an indulgent man,
Il blue grass Kentuckian and a
judge Of julep.
"Upon what hypothesis do you
base your kick?" he inquired.
"That this feller amt fitten
associate when it comes to social
functions" the convict replied.
GAS you doubtless know, l stole
a thoroughbred horse, while this
presuming chap was sent up for
mule"
"Your objection is well found
3D." said the colonel. 81 will
| put you over at another table with
the gentleman who robbed a
bank" "
But the supreme court Of Miss
issippi has not been SO consider
ate, for, after long and deliberate
session, down has come the de-
cision that the white man and the
negro must hang together. Ma
jor Wilkinson Of Tennessee,
speaking Of the affair remarked:
"It may be the establishing of
q bad precedent, but the white
nah is not of very good family.
Still | can't blame him for not
wanting to be hanged that way.
1t would put me out nightly to
be hanged with an inferior, sub.
! would almost as soon sit down
and eat with him.
A case somewhat similar came
up down in my part of the country
just the other day. Not far from
where | live there is a very high
hill, almost a mountain, known as
Pilot Knob. The land in the VIC
Unity is valuable, improved with

The good people of GiIpin county have
lots Of jealous neighbors in their suburb
town Of Idaho Springs. Every improve
ment or enterprise undertaken by Gilpin
county people, no matter Of what magni-
tude or how beneficial it may be to the
county or state, is hissed at by the people
and press Of Idaho Springs. We have a
recent evidence of their jealous attitude
in connection with the new railroad
which is being built from Central City
through Russell Gulch to Yankee hill
and Alice. Idaho wants this railroad to
connect their burg. But they are not
willing to give the enterprise any finan-
cial support, and when they find they
cannot secure it they are very loud in
their declarations in trying to kill the en-
terprise. Central City and Russell Gulch
are willing to lend their financial sup
port to encourage oil new enterprises.
