THE PICNIC WAS
GREAT

w eQneSQdy, June ". IJUo, VIII
long be remembered, as a day
of feasting, and happy association
by about 1000 of the best citizens
of Clark and Nevada Couties.
On the preceding Monday, all
of this part of the country was
visited by copious rain, which
served as an inspiration to good
cheer among the people.
Wednesday, day dawned with
a beautiful clear sky, and as the
sun came up in the east, gentle
breeze came from the west, that
was as cool, and as celebrating
as any enjoyed at the most pop
ular summer resort on the Gulf
Coast.
The picnic that day, on Blue
Lake, aud its purpose, had been
amply advertised. The people of
both counties, on both sides of
the river, were intensely interest
ed and they turned out by hum
dreds and by thousands. Every
possible means of conveyance
in the two congenial communities
were called into servide, and by
10. 80 a. m. a conservative eSti-
mate of the assembled host,
placed the number at four thous-
and.
At 10.40 Capt. Jno. Hays,
Chairman of the committee on
arrangements, mounted the stand
called for order, and suggested
Hon. w. H. Weir as chairman of
the meeting. Mr.. Weir came
forward, thanked the throng for
the honor, ably expressed the
purpose Of the meeting, and in
the most fitting words introduced
the Hon. Samuel @. Sewer, of
Camden as the first speaker.
Then, for one hour, the people
gathered on Blue Lake had the
/ privilege Of hearing the most able
and convincing exposition
of the Importance Of good roads,
good bridges and internal inprov-
ment generally, hat this writer

SPOkANE'S LEADING THEATERS.

"Parson Jim" at Columbia Theater.
An interesting story of the honest
seafaring folk of the New England
coast is "Parson Jim," which will be
the offering of the Byron Douglas COM
pany at the Columbia theater for the
week beginning Sunday evening. The
four acts of the play are laid in the
fishing hamlets of the Massachusetts
coast, and a pure salt tang pervades
the entire piece.
The chief interest of the play cen
Parson Jim of the play. Fairchild is
parson in nickname only-the So
briquet having been bestowed on him
in his younger days, when he was
noted for his repeated escapades. In
later life, after a course on the sea
under his father, he settled down as
staid member of society and en-
gagged in boat building, but he was
never able to shake off the appellation
given him in his youth.
At the time of the opening of the
play, Parson Jim is a prosperous boat
builder who has thrown his past be-
hind him. He falls in love with his
foster sister, Edna Fairchild, and the
story of his love forms one of the
most interesting stories of the play.
The girl falls in love with a gay young
New Yorker, with nothing to recon-
mend himself but his good looks, and
who starts in to break the girls heart.
Parson Jim, however, saves her from
final disgrace and unhappiness.
Next week the company will pre-
sent the dramatization by Wilkie Col
Inns of his own famous story "a New
Magdalen."
Miss Ruth st. Denis, whose mystic
Hindu dances recently created a SEN
sation in New York, arrived in Lon

.YNCHED The negro
iE bad Committed AN ASSAULT
ON A WHITE GIRL.
Mob at Chickasha, Indian Territory,
Captures Wretch after a Long
chase-ls Identified by Victim-He
Voluntarily confesses and Is Drag
ged to Handy Tree and Executed.

Chickasha, l. T., July ga negro
who committed a criminal assault
upon the 16 year old daughter of Ira
Robertson near Womack was captured
and after being taken back to the
scene of his crime was hanged and
burned near the spot where he COM
mitted the crime. He confessed his
crime and offered no resistance to the
mob. To one person the negro gave
his name as Cliff Mays of Marshall,
Texas, and he told another that it was
Will Newbright of San Antonio. By
the time the negro was overtaken
near Bradley fully 400 men had joined
in the chase and soon after the cap
ture the march to Womack began.
When the Robertson home was reach
ed and the negro was brought before
the assaulted girl she said at once:
That's the one," and the negro re-
piled: Eyes lady, I'm the one. Cen
tlemen, admit the crime"
The mob then proceeded with their
victim past the spot where he had
committed his crime and to a tree in
the road on the bank of Walnut creek,
where rope was thrown over a limb
about IS feet high and the other end
knotted about the mans neck. He
was given an opportunity to speak
and again he confessed his guilt; and
after a fervent prayer to God for for
giveness he was drawn into the air to
die by strangulation. Before life was
extinct the body was lowered to the
ground, logs and brush were heaped
upon it and the mass ignited. For a
moment the body writhed, a few
groans were heard and the flames
completed their work. Two hours la
ter the charred body was buried unoer
the same tree, under direction of a
deputy marshal from Purcell, who had
been thwarted in his efforts to take
the negro from the mob.
Miss Robertson's condition is not
