HANGED AND BURNED
MOB AT SPRINGFIELD, MO-, Exc
cUrES THREE NEGROES IN
PUBLIC SQUARE.

Tive of the Men Accused Of Assaultins
a White Girl and the Other Charged
With Murder-sIx Companies of
State Troops Sent TO the Scene TO
Prevent a Recurrence of tie Race
Troubles.
Springfield, Mo-, April 16-Three
negroes We're hanged and burned here
Saturday night and Sunday morning
two Of them for criminal assault upon
a woman and one for murder
A mob of 5000 men Saturday night
took two negroes, Horace Duncan and
Jim Copeland, from the county jail,
hanged them to the Goddess Of Lib
erty in the courthouse square, built a
fire under them and roasted them to
death
The men were charged with assault
ing Mabel Edmondson, but protested
they were innocent.
Instead OF attacking the jail the
mob first stornled the residence Of the
sheriff, breaking down the doors,
smashing windows, destroying prac-
tically all the furniture ia the lower
part Of the house and rendering the
sheriff's wife unconscious from fright.
Overcoming the resistance of the
sheriff and a posse Of deputies the mob
secured the key to the jail and gained
an entrance. It had no difficulty in
locating the cells of Duncan and Cope
land.
The mob took a third negro, WIN
Allen, from the jail early Sunday
morning and consigned him to a sim
liar fate.
Prosecuting Attorney Patterson and
Sheriff Homer are said to have Sc
cured the names Of more than 100 men
who took part in the lynching. The
leaders Of the mob were not disguised
but worked in the full glare Of the
electric lights on the square.

Six Companies OF State Militia on Duty
at Springfield.
Springfield, Mo, April 16.--Quist
prevails here and the indications are
that the race trouble is over. The
presence OF the troops has had the
effect Of bringing the people to full
realization CT the situation. The last
OF the state militia ordered here by
Governor Folk arrived early in the day
and six companies now patrol the
streets.
With the first appearance OF the sol
diers there came a revulslon OF senti-
ment. A decided reaction set in and
people began to condemn the action OF
the mob that lynched the three ne.
groes and burned their bodies. This
feeling continues to gain strength, es-
pecially as it has become thoroughly
appreciated that Mabel Edmondson,
the white domestic, has declared posi-
lively that Duncan and Copeland, two
of the negroes lynched, were not her
assailants This also was heightened
by the arrival from jefferson City OF
an assistant attorney general, sent by
Governor Folk to aid the county Off
Gals in ferreting out and prosecuting
the members of the mob, the names of
many of whom are known
Warrants for twenty-five persons,
charging them with being leaders in
the mob, were issued during the after
noon and force Of deputies was sent
out to make arrests.

MINERS SECURE THEIR BEER.
Company Modifies Order When Mer
Go Out on Strike.

Irwin, Pa, April 1.-THE foreign
miners at Edna No. struck again dur
ng the day, their grievance being a
peculiar one. Recently the company
issued an order cutting of the supply
Of beer by refusing to allow agents to
sell or deliver In the town. The arrest
Of two agents caused the miners to
hold an indignation meeting and they
decided to strike.
The company then agreed to modify
the ruling by allowing beer in limited
quantities to be brought in and the
men returned to work.

change but as we look over the field
of present day facts and conditions
one is impressed with the prevalence
of a consciousness among the nations
of earth of a nearer relationship. That
our president, by the power of the po-
sition he occupies, as the head of
great nation, and by his idividual
strength of character, was able to
bring two great powers within the
council chamber, there to settle their
differences and stay the ravages Of
war, augurs much for the future of In
ternational relations and for the part
America is to play in the future of the
worlds progress.
ut is likewise a significant fact in
our present day conditions that neve:
before in our history as a people has
the education of our youth Received so
large attention.; and our institutions
of learning and colleges swing freely to
the youth of the land, regardless of
whether they come from an humble
cottage or a gilded palace. A training
Of the highest order is within the reach
of rich and poor alike, and no young
man or young woman need turn to
their life's work barred from the high
est educational advantages the land
affords, because Of their poverty. And
not only within our institutions of
learning are the sources of culture to
be found, but from the lecture plat
form and the public library, from the
pulpit and the press there never be-
fore in our history has come such an
influence telling for the culture of our
people and the elevation Of the home
These are some of the signs of the
times in the life of our common peo-
pie that are painting the future golden
with it's opportunities and its possibil-
ties. There is no scouting the fact that
the present holds its serious 2roblems
and it's dangerous conditions, but these
facts and conditions are significant, in
that they reveal some of the tasks
which we, as people,, must UNDER
take and as we will succeed"
