Nacogdoches, Tex. Oct. 1s.--Jim
Buchanan, colored, the murderer of
the Hicks family, was tried here, FRI

the judge. and the negro was legally
hanged within two hours after SEN
tence had been passed. Buchanan
was brought here under the protec-
ton of five companies of militia. Up
ON his arrival here the negro was
Immediately turned over to Sheriff
Spradley, who told the people that
he would be given speedy trial. The
town began TO fill up rapidly and the
excitement was intense. The tele-
graph wires were cut, the railroad
tracks were torn up for short dis
tance, and it was announced that an
attempt would be made to get pos
session of Buchanan. District court
was at once convened, jury was inn
paneled without delay, and the me-
gro's plea of guilty was accepted by
the court. The judge ordered that

days allowed him by law; and was
hanged by Sheriff Spradley in the Jail

Ten days ago the dead bodies Of
Farmer Hicks, his wife and daughter
were found in the Hicks home, and
Sheriff Spradley began search for
the murderer. A week later Jim
Buchanan was arrested and confessed
to the murder.
The news of the Negroes confession
spread rapidly and a mob of several
hundred people marched after the
sheriff and his deputies with the in
tention of securing possession of the
negro and burning him at the stake.
Sheriff Spradley and his deputies re-
fused to give over the prisoner and
later they were Joined by Sheriff
Bowers of San Augustine county.
The two officers, through ruse,
finally succeeded in spiriting the me-
gro away to the parish Jail at Shreye-
port. Buchanan was next taken to
the Jail at Henderson, and company
of military was ordered out to pro-
tect the negro from violence. A mob
formed and it was feared collision

to make the bayou navigable. A
movement is now on foot to utilize

COAL
FIELDS OF

Future.

Oregon has but one productive coal
field. the Coos Bay Geld. II is about
30 miles long with maximum breadth
OF | / miles, a total area of $50 square
miles In 1855 Coos Bay coal began to
attract attention. The coal is Ignite,
and il preferred to other coal for do
nestle fuel, but does not generally
coke, and is not a good steam coal.
Other fields showing coal of good quail.
ity are the Upper Nehalem field in
Columbia county, the Lower Nehalem
field, in Clatsop and TillamoolS coun.
ties, the Yaquina field, in Lincoln
county, and the EclSley and Shasta
fields, in Curry county-all west of
the Cascade range. The commercial
value of these fields cannot now be
told. East of the Cascades coal has
been found in the basin of the John
Day river which Includes parts of
Grant, Crook, Gillian and Wasco
counties, But little is known of this
field. The Coos Bay field is divided
into the Newton and Beaver Slough,
the Coquille and tho South Slough Ba.
sins. In the first named the Newport
mine Is the only one out OF several
started that has survived and is being
worked, The Beaver Slough, over 20
miles long from neav Riverton TO the
northern limit of Coos Bay, and about
five miles wide, has seen many mines
start, and only one, the Beaver Hin
mine, survive, though no shipments
are now made. The prospects for en-.
largement are however good. The
South Slough Basin lies Immediately
TO the west of the two basins men.

toned. The Coquille basin is eight
miles long and one mile wide. Coal
has been prospected here, but no
mines opened.
In 1880 the Pacific coast produced
about 425,OO tons, in 1890 over L.
435 900 tons, and in 1900 over 2,7O4,-

Memorial Day Closing Exercises.

The opera house was we'll filled last night at the literary and musical en- tertainment of the Memorial day exercises. The exercises opened with an overture by the orchestra under the leadership of Mrs. B. H. Smith, which was followed by a prayer by Rev. Taft of the Baptist church. A quartette consisting of Mrs. Ross, Miss Campbell and Messrs. Parsons and Collier, rendered a musical selec- ton, when the address of the evening was delivered by J. H. Collins. The speaker was very eloquent in the Ge- livery of his address, while the address itself was in MT. Collins most happy vein appropriate to the occasion, re- citing the deeds of valor on the bat tie field of our gallant and patriotic soldiers, and the great debt of grati- tud owed them by the country.
 The flag drill by twenty-four little girls, which followed the address, was very pretty and the little ones went through it in a very creditable and pleasing manner.
 Miss Maud Hanna, who is great favorite with Prescott people, sang a solo. as did also Miss Jessie Drais, and Mrs. J. P. Bauder gave a recita- ton. Mrs. Bowen, of the Woman's Relief Corps, recited LincOln's speech at Gettysburg, which was followed by tableau of war scenes. The entire audience then joined in singing, as closing piece of the entertainment, America" after which the benedic- ton was pronounced by Rev. Leon | O. Lewis.
