BOYS TRIED TO
LYNCH COMPANION
The Appearance of q Woman Upon
the Scene Saves the
Youngsters Life.

Evening TinAes Special Service.
Fergus Falls, Minn., July 27.-The
two Irien boys and boy named Wolf
were brought into justice court here
today on the charge of having at
tempted to lynch one of their compan-
ions, a boy named La Plante.
The boys, who range in age from IL
to IA, are charged with having dragged
their prospective victim into a piece
of woods with halter around his
neck, and, but for the fact that they
were seen by a woman who happened
along, his career would have probably
been cut. short. The case has been
continued for few days until some
additional evidence is secured.
