MOB BATTERED
DOWN JAIL DOORS
AND LYNCHED THE MURDERER
OF A POLICEMAN.
TELEGRAPH POLE WAS USED
In Forcing the Doors Of the Jail at
Cumberland, Nd, and a Negro
Desperate was Shot to Death
by Band of Citizens.

Cumberland, Md. Oct. THE first
lynching in the History of Cumberland
occurred at an early hour Sunday
morning.
The shooting of Policeman August
Baker on Thursday night by William
Burns, negro desperate, while the
latter was resisting arrest created a
great deal OF excitement, owing to the
excellent reputation of the officer and
his well known kindly disposition. His
death on Saturday morning was fol-
lowed by threats against the negro.
these coming as much from those of
his own race as from the whites. Few.
however. seem to have thought a
lynching possible and the police paid
no attention to the rumors that were
af1oat
Only Deputy Sheriff Adam Hendley
was at the Jail, when, after midnight.
crowd of less than 100 men a few of
whom were disguised, appeared and
demanded the keys. These being re-.
fused, telegraph pole was used as a
battering ram and entrance to the
building was forced Other negroes in
neighb sing cells were careful to guide
the lynchers to that of Burns and here
again the battering ram was used.
The lynchers found their victim
crouching behind his cot and, seizing
him by the feet, dragged him down
stairs and into the street, where, with
in a few yards of the entrance to the
jail, Burns was kicked and shot to
death.
Rev. Cleveland Hicks. an Episco-
pal clergyman, did his best to save the
negro and afterward protected the
body until the arrival upon the scene
OF Judge Hunter Boyd and the police.
Judge Boyd called upon the crowd to
disperse and in this was promptly
obeyed. The body was removed to an
undertaking establishment and 10000
persons viewed II.

THE WORLDS CHAMPIONSHIP
PROGRAM FOR cHiCAoo.DE'
rRoIT SERIES MAPPED OUT.
First Two Games to be Played In Chi
caso-PIayers to Divide go Per
Cent. Of Receipts from the
First Four Games.

Chicago, Oct. "details of the
worlds championship series between
the Chicago club, winner of the Ma.
tional league pennant. and the De
troit team, pennant winner in the
American league. were arranged at q
meeting of the National baseball com.
mission Sunday. The schedule OF
games follows:
Wednesday, at Chicago; Thursday. at
Detroit; Friday, at Detroit; Saturday,
at Detroit; Sunday, at Chicago.
II seventh game is necessary to
decide the series, the city in which 1t
is played will be decided by the com
mission. The schedule as adopted
was determined by lot. If any Of the
games scheduled is postponed on ac.
count of rain, or for any other cause,
the teams are required to play the
postponed game on the first day avail
able at the same park.
BY agreement of all of the clubs
representing both leagues the rules al
ready existing, governing the playing
of the championship series, were
amended SO that so per cent. of the
net receipts from the first four games
played shall form pool for the play
ers of the two teams, 60 per cent. of
this amount to go to the winning and
40 per cent to the losing team.
President Pulliam, of tho National
league, selected Henry O'Day as UNI
pire for his organization during the
series. President Johnson, of the
American league, named John r.
Sheridan as his umpire. Official scor-
ers are A. j. Flanncr and +. c. Rich
ter. The scale of prices for admission
to the games was fixed at 81. 1.50 and
So for the Chicago games and 81, So
and $3.50 for Detroit. The reason for
the lower prices ut Chicago is the
large seating capacity of the Chicago
park.

Two Men Affirm That They Have Seen
the Reptile.

A report from Walker lake states
that monster sea serpent has been
seen at northern end Of the lake. Dan
Cornelison, a mining man of good rep

to GOldheld. Cornelison says that
both he and a companion named John
McCorry sighted the reptile while fish,
Ing from boat Malt a mile from the
northern shore of the lake. The mon.
ster was then making it's way toward
the east shore Of the lake. Cornell.
son says that at first sight he took the
serpent for a man In skiff, and when
1t disappeared for moment he
thought the boat had capsized and
rowed toward the spot, when 1t sud.
denly reappeared, giving them good
view of its proportions, which they
estimated to be about 80 feet in length
and feet across the back. Another
es'dent of that vicinity. a man named
Peters. is said to have discovered the
serpent sometime ago reposing in
shallow water near the shore, and on
being aroused 1t disappeared in deeper
water. There is also said to be a le-
