YIELDS BEFORE WIND PRESSURE.

oted in a central socket, being braced
with stay ropes running to opposite
sides of the hull. Ordinarily these
stay ropes are rigidly secured, but in
this case they are extended to a drum
beside the mast, where they are wound
up tightly to brace the mast. When
the ship tits too low in the water under
the wind pressure a weighted arm on
the drum swings to one side, releasing
the ratchet device, which prevents ro-
tation of the drum. 1t is obvious that
the unwinding Of the rope on the high
est side of the hull will ease off the
mast and allow it to tilt into the posi-
ton shown in the dotted lines in the
drawing. There is a stop which pre-
vents the fall of the mast beyond
certain point, and as soon as the wind
quiets down the mast can be returned
to its normal position by rewinding
the rope on the Milwaukee SEN

be seen, trumpet isrigidly secured be-

thrown directly forward, and will not

used as an auxiliary warning in case
the ringing of the gong is not needed,

For then l know he's free from harm.

When oft l hear some music rare
It's mingled with jingling air.
And when he leaves his dear home nest
To seek in life. for all that's best,

And hum some song of olden day.

ENRAGED KENTUCKY MOB
STRINGS UP WHITE MAN
Thought Courts Too Tardy
and Took Law Into It's
Own Hands

Maysville, Ky, July Enraged at
the tardiness of the courts. a mob
broke into the Flemingsburg Jail and
hanged William Thacker. a white man.
who had been given life sentence for
the murder of John Gordon two years
ago. Thacker. in a quarrel with Cor
don at Foxport, shot and killed him
and then sat on the body winchester
in hand while he smoked his pipe, and
dared any one to attempt to arrest him.
At the time Tucker escaped. but was
later arrested and lodged in jail at
Flemingsburg. He was given two
trials, and finally got n life sentence.
Gordon was a good citizen and an in
offensive man. After being sentenced
Thacker appealed to the court of ap.
peals, and was waiting for another
trial. Thacker had some money. and
was able to command the support of
some influential men, and it was feared
that he might escape punishment alto
gether
The mob collected at Mount Carmel,
whore Gordon once lived. and came
into Flemingsburg by twos and threes
in order not to arouse suspicion. They
advanced upon the jail shortly after
midnight. The jailer refused 70 sur
render the keys. lie was overpowered
and the keys taken from him. Thacker
was hurried to a tree near the Jail
and was given time to say his prayers.
which he refused to do. but begged for
his life. To hush his cries he was hit
on the head with a rock and his un-
conscious body strung mp until life
had become extinct.
