Beloit, Kan. Speaking on lynching. he said: L

However. there is one Of the objects attained
by lynching that is seldom considered If a
man, say a negro, shall assault a woman per-

arrested after his crime and is brought into the

must appear and perhaps, under the cross-eX-
animation Of lawyers, relate every detail of the
assault thus subjecting her TO humiliation to
an extreme degree"

According to a report received at

ment, now stationed at Fort Schuyler,
N Y. and formerly on duty in the
Philippines, the custom of fiagellation
is still prevalent among the Filipinos,
Especially during Holy Week. While
in Bulacan province, says the New
York Times, Lieutenant Barney had
an opportunity to witness this prac-
tice. in regard to which he says:
"a person falls i'll, for example, and
he promises the Deity that If he gets
well he will perform penance of such
and such kind and such days Of Holy
Week for SO many years. Or, II he has
an enemy whom he wishes TO get rid
of, he vows that If this enemy dies he
will drag a ball and chain, or fiagellate
himself. or perform some other peaace

the rest of his life Back of the small
chapel, called vista, which exists in
every village, he begins his penace.

recognition, stripped to the waist, and

Murder viii Out.

Mrs Molly Andrews, formerly Miss

before her death which clears up the
mystery connected with a tragedy that

this county was called to his gate by
two men and two women the night be

from a knife and with his scull frac.

that one of the men who was present

accompanied them, she said, and who
disappeared several years ago. was
