ARGUMENTS AGAINST LYNCHINa
Practical Illustrations Both in Virginia
and Maryland.

There has just Immediately come under
my observation" said a well-known resi-
dent of this city. 1.-TWO cases that present
the strongest illustration that I can muster
up of the criminal folly of lynching men for
alleged crimes. If the passions Of the COM
munities in which suspected persons had
given themselves full vent, and the re-
suit had been the death by violence Of the
persons instructed, there would be a blot
on the fame of two great states that a long
time would remain to disgrace them.
THE first of these solid arguments against
lynching, under almost any circumstances
is shown in the case of a young oolored
man who was arrested near Roanoke, Va
charged not only with robbing three white
women but also with having committed an
assault upon one of them 1t was we'll he
was securely locked up, for had he not been
in custody the chances are ten to one that
he would have been a victim of mob ven
geance. He was obliged to face all the
ladies who had been abused by some one,
and their evidence clearly showed a case of
mistaken identity in the case of the man
under arrest. His innocence was clearly
proven and he was Immediately discharged
from custody.
The other case is that of the two col
ored youths who were suspected of having
kidnapped and assailed two little girls in
the Anne Arundel county woods, not far
from Baltimore. The finding of the two lit
tie wanderers alive and well. but for their
famished condition, shows too well what a
horror 1t would have been If the children
had not been discovered and the man sus-
pected of being concerned in their disap-
pearance had been subjected to unlawful
punishment, as they might have been.
Here are two strong arguments, almost
under the very dome of the Capitol, that cry
out In thunder tones against the too Oft
repeated crime of lynching."

CHAPTER II.
A Gathering of Threads.

From me?' repeated Miss Croydon,
blankly. "A single word from me? 1 do
not understand you. Mr.. Godfrey
DO you mean to say" demanded God
frey. with emphasis. that you do not know
where Mr.. Drysdale was Monday night;
that you were not yourself the cause of his
leaving the house?"
She was staring at him with distended
eyes.
II the causel" she repeated, hoarsely,
after a moment. Mr.. Godfrey, 1 will tell
you something OF which 1 had determined
never to speak. When he left the house
that evening he deliberately broke ap-
pointment he had made with mean APP
pointment which he had prayed for. He had
happened to hear Mr.. Tremalne make GER
tain proposals 10 me-in short" she hest
tated, and then proceeded steadily, with
raised head may as well tell the whole
truth. Since the evening OF that first
tragedy Mr.. Tremaine has been prosecuting
me with his attentions. At the time l
thought them merely insulting-I see now
that he may have been in earnest"
. II don't in the least doubt that he was in
earnest" agreed Godfrey. Mr.. Drysdale,
then. overheard him ask you to be his
wife?"
'Yes-Just that
But he also heard you refuse, no doubt?''
'Oh, yes" she said, smiling and cOlorng
a little: "he heard me refuse in the most
=
Tremaine to intemperance of language
which Mr.. Drysdale resented, and which he
thought should have resented. too. He
demanded that I explain to him Mr. Ire
maine's position and l promised to do so
on the very evening he-he stayed away
from the house. His staying away offended
me deeply"
Godfrey had listened with intent eyes and
a quick nod from time to time
There Is only one point lacking" ne said
did Tremaine know OF your intention 10
tell Drysdale the story?"
"Yes-he even charged me with that in
tention.'
''Ah-he had listened at keyhole, prob
ably"
He said that Mr.. Drysdale himself had
told him. / might add, Mr.. Godfrey, that
met Mr.. Drysdale and the officers In the
hall that morning, as they were going
away. and 1 implored him to tell them
where he had been. He answered me with
such insult and contempt that ] thought he
must be mad"
And no wonder! You were playing al
cross-purposesf presume. then, that II
was not you who wrote Mr.. Drysdale this
note2' and he handed her the crumpleo
sheet of paper he had fshed from Drys-
dale's waste basket.
She took II with trembling hand; already
beginning to suspect, perhaps, what 1t con
tanned.

note as that, Mr.. Godfrey. Where did II

''Why. yes" she answered. looking at II
more closely. That is, 1t Is something
like Oh! l begin to see!" she cried. and
saw her seized with a sudden conclusive
shuddering.
Yes" said Godfrey. ut was pretty
plot. This note lured him from the house
and kept him away until the storm came
UP and he was forced TO abandon the hope
OF meeting you. He concluded that YOU were
playing with him-when he returned to tn,
