MOST HORRIBLE DEATH.
Negro Paid for His Assault on White
Girl


Girl.
Wheeling, w. Va.-A special to the
Register from Blueields says The
little town of Devon, Mingo county,
was the scene recently of the assault
ing of a little IA year old girl by a
negro, followed by his subsequent
lynching by an enraged mob number
ing over 200 men. The little girl was
caught short distance from her home
by the negro and carried to a neigh
boring wood, where her body was tied
to a tree, bound and gagged. Her
absence was noticed by the neighbors,
who Immediately formed themselves
into searching party. She was found
in an almost dying condition, but was
able to tell to the horror stricken
searchers the story. Wild were the
cries for vengeance when the little
girls story was heard, but after a con-
sultation it was decided to lay in wait
for the fiend.
In a short time he appeared and
was just renewing his assault upon
the helpless child when the entire mob
Of concealed searchers emerged and
made for him. He would have been
torn limb from limb on the spot, but
the horrible crime of the negro de-
manded a more cruel death and the
cool heads kept the enraged mob back
and the negro was dragged to the viii
lage common and bound to a tree.
Again the mob gave vent to their wild
desire for revenge and it was by the
greatest efforts of the leaders that
they were kept back.
The clothing of the negro was torn
from his body and pins, tacks, pen
knives and every conceivable weapon
of torture was stuck into the skin Of
the negro as he struggled, vainly
pleading for his life. He was allowed
to suffer a hundred deaths, with his
body bleeding in a thousand places.
The almost lifeless form of his victim
was then placed before the glazing
eyes of the brute, while willing hands
cut the tongue from his swollen mouth.
His cries became incoherent and be-
fore the enraged citizens could be
checked the skin was literally cut from
his body and distributed among the
villagers. He died with his eyes on
the little girl whose life he had ruined.
His heart was then cut out with jack
knives, his toes and fingers chopped
off and carried away as mementoes.
His bloody and mangled form was
then soaked with kerosene and fired.

TRADE REPORT.

r. G. Dun & Co.'S weekly Review Of
Trade says: Business responds to i'm
proved conditions. Distribution of
merchandise is accelerated by more
seasonable weather and fewer labor
controversies, while the wholesale and
jobbing trade, especially at the inter-
iOr, shows the encouraging effect Of
brighter agricultural prospects. There
is the customary excessive demand for
farm hands. Receipts of holiday traf-
fic and trade in holiday goods indicate
no diminutiOn in purchasing power,
and semiannual inventories show a
more gratifying situation than expect
ed. There is less than the usual mid
summer idleness in manufacturing, eX-
cept in the cotton industry. Commod-
ity prices advanced slightly during
June, Dun's index number on July 1
being $99,456, compared with $98,936
month earlier. A decline of "a
per cent is recorded in comparison
with July, 1902, chiefly in articles of
food. Railway earnings for June are
1871 per cent larger than last year and
25.3 in excess of 1901.
Installation of new converters and
other repairs interfere with work at
some prominent steel mills, which ex-
plains in part the quiet condition of
the market.
Raw wool is firmly held, fair prices
being secured at the London American
auction sales.
Failures numbered 1874 in the Unit.
ed States.

KILLED HIS soN-IN-LAW.
Shot Him the Second Time While on
Operating Table.

Bluffton, Ind, July 14-John Ter
rill, a farmer living near Petroleum
has killed his son in law, NJ. Wolfe,
firing the charges of both barrels Of
shotgun into Wolfe's head as he lay
on an operating table. The operation
was compelled by gunshot wound in
fiicted by Terrill a shot time before.
Wolfe had deserted his wife and baby
and suit was brought to compel him
to support them. Early in the morning
Wolfe drove past the Terrill home,
shouting insulting remarks and shak-
ing his fist at Terrill. When Wolfe
came by again Terrill shot him in the
leg.
Wolfe was hurried to Petroleum,
placed on an operating table and pre-
parations were made to amputate his
leg. While a crowd stood around
watching the surgeon, Terrill broke in
the door. He drove the crowd from
the room at the point of his gun and
with the remark 81 am going to get
him now" fired both barrels into his
son in laws head. Wolfe was terribly
mutilated. At the time Terrill fired
Wolfe was half conscious. After the
shooting Terrill climbed into his
buggy, reloaded his gun and, holding
the crowd that had formed hastily at
bay, drove to the sheriff's residence
and surrendered.

N. w. Railway News.

1t is said that the $1OO0O,O0O cash
received by the Union Pacific from w.
A. Clark for the southern branch of the
Oregon Short Line is to be spent on
extensions, either in Washington or
Oregon, or both. This may hasten the
line, which was reported several weeks
ago, that Hartman is surveying west
ward from Spokane, perhaps connect
ing with the Bellingham Bay road.
But nothing definite has developed yet
as to Washington plans.
President Mohler of the o. r. & N.
recommends building a line east of the
Deschute river into central Oregon,
partly following the route of the Co.
lumbia Southern and continuing south
and east, meeting the main line at
Boise City. 1t would form a good al
tentative route to the coast for Union
Pacific traffic, and would open up a
territory rich in lumber and grain re-
sources. Surveyors are now in the
field on this line and northeast of
Boise towards the Butte extension
These two plats alone would add over
600 miles to the Union Pacific, or 100
miles more than sold to Clark. They
would shorten by 200 miles the route
via the Hartman lines from Montana
to Portland and by 100 miles the dis
lance from Salt Lake to Portland.
