Enters a Court Room in Texas
and Takes Possession Of
Two Negro Prisoners
IN PUBLIC SQUARE
Both Had Just Been Found Guilty of
Criminal Assault and Murder and
the Jury Had Prescribed the Death
Penalty, But the Angry Mob Would
Not Wait.

Hampstead, Tex, Oct. o2-After be-
sault and murder and given the death
penalty in each case, Jim Wesley and
Reddick Barton,negr oes, We're last eve-
ming taken from the authorities of this
city and lynched in the public square
by mob. The distric; judge yesterday
asked the governor for militia to ac-
company the negroes here from the jail
at Houston, where they We're safe.
At the request of large number OF
signed a written promise to aid the
authorities in preventing mob law,
Judge Thompson countermanded his
request and the troops did not accom-
pany the negroes.
Barton was first tried, then Wesley.
Both men pleaded guilty to criminal
assault, and then to the murder OF Mrs.
Susan Lewis, aged 63, Sunday, Oct. IL.
While the second trial was proceed-
ing a mob broke into the court room
and attempted to take Wesley. it hav-
ing been reported that the sheriff had
asked for troops. The mob was dis
persed. however, and the trial pro-
ceeded.
Both juries assessed the death PEN
atty.
The officers of the court sat about the
room at the conclusion of the trial
awaiting the coming of the militia,
when there was a sudden rush on the
part of the many men in the room;
the sheriff was overpowered and Wes-
ley was taken in possession by the mob
and hurried away.
Another portion of the mob while
this was going on attacked the jail,
where Barton had been taken when his
trial was over, and the prisoner was
surrendered without 4 struggle.
The two prisoners were hurried to the
public square and there executed by
hanging.
Neither Of them had been sentenced.
altho District Judge Thompson had
positively refsed to permit them to
waive the thirty days of grace allowed
them by law. The town is quiet. Sher-
if Lipscomb was badly injured in the
back by the rough treatment of the
murderers.
Sheriff Sparks of Lee county was also
wounded IN the stomach by shot fired
during the first rush.

PUTS LIMIT ON GAMBLERS.
New London Club Restricts Losse.
to $4,000 a Week.

1
London, Oct 22.-English club mem
ticle in the Daily Express on the sub
ject Of the new Atlantic club, which
is Familiarity called the Anglo American
millionaires' club.
This organization, which proposes to
secure quarters in Piccadilly, has, ac-
cording to circular sent out inviting
men to join, already enrolled upon
its membership list some 300 mem
bers Of prominent London clubs, such
as the Carlton, Bachelors and Marl-
borough. Quite q number of wealthy
Americans have also joined. On the
committee list are the names Of the
earl of Albemarle, the earl of kintore.
the earl Of Lonsdale, the earl of Craven.
Lord Suf1eld, Lord Charles Beresford.
j. Pierpont Morgan, John Jacob Astor,
Senator Chauncey NJ. Depew, and 9th
ers equally prominent.
The Express says one of the rules of
the new club recently passed provides
that members shall not be allowed to
lose more than e1,OO5 week at cards
on the club premises. Both winners
and losers must place card accounts
! in the cashiers box before leaving the
room. No member may make ready
money payments. For the card trans
actions Monday is settling day, and no
member may play after his account
! has reached $1,000 until it is set
tied. For instance, says the Express,
a member losing 6 1000 on Tuesday
could not play An the club for the re-
mainder of the week.
These alleged rules regulating gam
bling in the club have caused much
comment. In most Of the London clubs
gambling for large stakes is frowned
upon, While even in those where it Is
unofficially sanctioned the utmost pri-
vacy is maintained.
To fix limit for members losses in
the club rules, as appears to have been
done by the Atlantic club, is an unhear6
OF proceeding, and smacks of the GUS
tom of ordinary gambling. rooms, where.
the proprietor calculates the amount
which he considers his patrons are
good for.
| What is still more remarkable is that
such provision in any clubs rules
is practically an announcement to tho
police that gambling is openly indulged
in and an invitation to them under the
law to raid the club house.

Plan Of Oregon Sheriff to Provide fo'
M,,rd darer's Son.

Murdsrer's Son.
Portland Ore, Oct 22.-If Sheriff
story. of Multnomah county, carries
out his present plans A. L. Belding
the murderer, will pass into history as
the first criminal who made money on
the scaffold, and the sheriff. incident-
ally, will be remembered as having or
sanized a system by which curiosity is
made to contribute to charity. On July
IL Belding killed his wife, Frank
Woodward, bartender Of whom he
was Jealous and Mrs. L. NlcCroskey.
his mother-in law, and dangerously
wounded his father-in-law, Lemuel
McCroskey. The crime was committed
at the home of Mrs. Belongs parents.
Belding entered the house with re-
yolver in each hand and shot Wood
ward. He shot the others as they ran
out Of their rooms to see what the
shooting was about. After leaving the
house Belding telephoned the chief of
police, informing him OF the shooting
and calmly awaited arrest. He has
frequently expressed desire to be
hanged without delay.
The sheriff proposes that those per-
sons who attend the hanging of the
triple murderer must pay S. towards
supporting Belongs 6-year-old boy,
who will become an orphan on Oct. 81.
1.-The idea" says Sheriff Story, "is
entirely original. 1t was suggested to
me by the numerous requests for invi-
tations to the hanging. Belongs little
boy, who is now being cared for by an
aid society, already has been deprived

tations, to a limited extent upon the
occasion of a legal execution. l think
IL proper that those receiving them
who care to attend should contribute
something to the support of the child
whose father they have come to see
hanged. The position of this little boy
is an unenviable one, and it seems to
me that 1T would be much improved il
a sum of money was placed in the
hands of the county court to be ex-
pended under its direction for the
child's education and benefit. So keen

will give all the fees which I may re-

Il am aware in making public this
idea I am advocating an idea which.
because of its novelty, may cause some
criticism" continued the sheriff, "but
am free to say that do not think any
valid objection can be raised to the
proposal
The plan outlined by the sheriff will
result in realizing nearly $4,000 for the
boy.
The novelty of the idea has caused a
generally expressed determination to|
subscribe to the fund. Belding. him
self, is much pleased with the pro-
spective opportunity of leaving his son
some money.
