vengeance. The, alarm was given and
from all surrounding towns armed pur-
suers started. Mcclure succeeded in
reaching the Jail in safety.

left him and refused to see him. He
said:
II decided to be revenged and drove
down the road to a little of small trees.

buggy. When | stopped the jolt awoke
my little boy, Dee, and he looked up to
me and said:
Papa, what are you going to do?'

shot him in the forehead, killing him
instantly. The shot awoke little Homer
and l took him by the shoulder and
fired a shot into his head. They both
fell to the bottom of the buggy. l lift
ed both bodies out and laid them on the
Withered grass. I then drove directly
to Marion Jail. I don't care what you
do with me. I am ready to die and eX-
pect to hang for this crime. All I ask

Later, this evening, it was learned
that a mob was being formed to come
to Marion, tonight, and lynch Mcclure.

which is about ITO feet below the sur
face.
Rufus c. Hunt, general superintend-
ent of the tunnel work, said, today, that
two converging seams had appeared in
the roof of the tunnel during the day
work, Saturday. The presence of these
seams, however, was not believed to in
dictate any more dangerous character
to the rock than had previously been
encountered, although it was thought
necessary to prop the roof with a num-
Der of upright timber braces. The tun-
mel was being bored by opening per-
pendicular embrasure in the face of
the bore and blasting the sides to the
right and left of this embrasure. Three
blasts We're arranged for by the drillers

in volume with lightninglike rapidity.
Those in the rear had just time to turn
about and run, when, with a deafening
crash, hundreds of tons of rock fell on
the men at the face of the boring.
The drillers and two or three Italians
who were out of reach of the deluge
of rock, were knocked fiat on their
faces by the rush of wind through the
tunnel. When the roar had ceased the
cries of the injured workmen rushed
through the tunnel. Two negroes, In

pushing along the track to be loaded
with the blasted rock, rushed to the
opening at 200th street and telephoned
an alarm to police headquarters. Re-
