Negro lynChed in Illinois.

A race war broke out at Danyil1e.
Illinois, this week which, if possible,
is more appalling than that at Evans
Vile, Indiana.
A mob was on its way to lynch
James Wilson, a Bloomington negro
who confessed to the assaulting OF Mrs
Thomas Burgess, wife of a farmer,
when negro refugee from Evansville
became involved in an alteration with
some of its members and fired into
them killing Henry Gatterman. The
negro became terrified at what he had
done and tried to make his escape but
was captured by the officers and taken
to the city Jail. The mob soon located
him and hurried tither demanding the
prisoner but were refused by the tailor.
They then battered down the door and
part of the wall with a long pole, the
jailor seeing that resistance was USE
less let them take the negro who they
strung up, and after his life had been
slowly strangled out, cut him in pieces
and threw him into fire which had
been started in the street. After COM
pleting this job they proceeded to the
county Jail and demanded Wilson of
the sheriff, but the sheriff learning of
the approach of the mob had sworn in
and armed about twenty deputies and
believing he could defend his prisoner
against the mob refused their demands.
The mob being made bold by their
former success rushed the Jail and the
sheriff was compelled to fire upon them
mortally wounding two of their num-
ber. They then withdrew and sent TO
a mining camp nearby for some dyna-
mite vowing that they would yet get
their man.
Company K. a colored troop at that
place were ordered to be in rediness to
act if called upon but the mob say they
will kill every one of them if they are
brought out.
At last reprots the people are still
crazed and more trouble is feared.

Are they worlds with their ranges

cowboys there scrap with Com

cal worlds far away? Do the
ranch houses ring with the pratt
tie of dear little children at play?
AT night in those bright stars up
yonder do cowboys lie down to
their rest and gaze at this old
earth an wonder if riders dash
over it's breast? Do they bark to
the wolves in the cannons? Dc
they watch the nighthawk in its
fight, their horses their only com
panions while guarding the herds
through the night.
