MOB LYNCHES A PREACHER
Social Relations as Well as Doctrines
Distasteful to the People
VICTIM WAS IN CHARGE or CONSTABLE
Omcer was First Called TO the Door
and shot Down and Then the
Second Victim was Taken
Into Woods.

ST. LOUIS, May IA special to the Re
public from Caruthersville, Mo, says: d.
NJ. Malone, a preacher for a sect known
as "Sanctiled' people and Constable w. j.
Mooneyhon were shot and killed by a mob
last night at Wardell, twelve miles west
Of Charlottesville. Malone had been pro-
selyting in this county for several months
and considerable feeling had been aroused
against him. A woman named Mrs. Frill
having left her husband, caused much
agitation recently by living with Malone,
who left his own wife. Mrs. Alice Malone,
the preachers wife, objected vigorously to
this arrangement and Malone declared her
insane and caused her to be detained in
jail. This action aroused citizens to a
frenzy and a warrant was issued against
Malone and Mrs. Frill on the charge OF
unlawfully living together. Constable
Mooneyhon last night arrested both. and
because Of the lateness Of the hour de-
cided not to take them to Caruthersville
until morning, but instead, took his pris-
oners to his own home for the night.
Shortly after midnight there was a knock
at tho front door and Mooneyhon opened
the door. He was shot dead in the door
way. A mob streamed into the house. and
seized Malone, dragging him out into the
uarhness Mrs. Fiji trantically begged that
no harm be done to him, but she was
roughly pushed inside the house and the
moi departed. Malone was taken to a
wood some distance away and shot to death.
The mob then dispersed. No harm was
offered to Mrs. Frill or to Mrs. Mooney
hon.
Intense excitement has resulted from the
tragedy. Sheriff ]. A. Franklin says he
has several clues to members of the mob
but whether he will be able to make ar
rests even with a posse, is p"roblematical.
The warrant was issued for the arrest OF
the couple last Wednesday. At that time
Constable Mooneyhon attempted to make
the arrest, but when he appeared at the
door, Malone met him with a rife and
the declaration that he lived by the laws
of Grace and not Of men and would &C
knowledge no sovereignty on the part Of
the public" Mooneyhon, fearing to be
shot. departed but returned last night with
assistance and took the couple into Gus
tody.
1t is not explained why the constable
was shot by the mob, but II is believed
that he was either mistaken for Malone
or the mob was angry because the con.
stable took the couple to his own home
after arresting them

LIFE BY THE CLOCK
Doing Things on Time May BE Car.
ried to Dangerous Extremes.

An eminent physician at a recent
gathering of his profession directed
notice afresh to the daily tension under
which most Americans do their work.
we rise on time. he remarked. in the
morning, whether by an alarm CLOCK
by the call OF Il servant or by habit, eat
breakfast and read the paper on tlme'
a clock in every room and watch ire
uuently in our hand. We them on time,
meet office and outside engagements
always preconsidering the amount OF
time that will be required and timing
the mex. engagement accordingly. VI
ten we subdivida this time and note Dy
our watches exactly how long we can
discuss subject.
Doubtless punctuality is a virtue.
Doubtless also the practice ct doing
things exactly on time has won for US
as people q large measure OF INDUS
trial success. But, carried to an ex-
IRENE, as it often is. it is wearing to
the Individual. The people whose
nerves break down from exhaustion
incident TO overwork are often not so
much the victims Of overwOrk as the
habit of COMPRISING every bit of work
within prearranged limits Of time. Let
any one try the experiment of doing q
given piece of work steadily and with
application, but without noticing b!
his watch or clock how much time he IS
consuming, and he will be amazed to
find how much easier it will go than
when he is timing himself and schem-
ing to bring the prescribed task within
a fixed number Of minutes.
We know great deal more about
sanitary matters than our fathers ana
grandfathers knew. We have hunted
down microbes. We have concocted
serums. Diseases which were once re-
garded as viSitations of Providence we
now know 10 be preventable, and we
take suitable means Of preventing
them. All these discoveries and new
remedies ought to diminish the death
rate and to promote longevity. They
have not done so, as a matter Of fact.
Perhaps they might do so If they had
fair chance The trouble Is that along
with these devices for frightening life
we are adopting practices which tend
to shorten it. One of the most wear
ing of these is the habit Of bringing all
details of our work within exact time
limits.-Boston Transcript.
