TO SAVE HONOR GIRL
JUMPS FROM HOTEL
Tragedy Occurs at Evansville
Last Night.

Evansville, Ind, Oct. 21.-Ethel
Logsdon, aged II years, rather than
sacrifice her honor jumped from the
third story of the Wellington hotel last
night and will die.
She was employed at the hotel as a
waitress, and came there two days ago
from Chandler, Ind, a country town.
Her girlish beauty attracted the atten-
ton of one of the men who boarded at
the hotel. He tried to force his atten-
ton upon her, but was repulsed
Last night at 10 o'clock he tried to
break the lock to enter her room in the
hotel, and the door was just giving
way when the girl, realizing her dan
ger, chose death rather than dishonor.
The girl leaped to the concrete pave
ment below. She was taken to st.
Mary's hospital, where the surgeons
found that her skull is fractured and
that she is dying.
The man who attempted to assault
Miss Logsdon escaped from the hotel.
Other male boarders, when they heard
of the attempted assault, rushed from
their rooms partially clad and battered
down the door to the boarders room
and would have lynched him had they
caught him.

ILLINOIS IS LOST
Democrats Have No Hope OF
Carrying That State
For Bryan.
SPEAKERS HAVE GIVEN UP,

Chicago, H., Oct 21.-Democratic
national headquarters in Chicago have
been dead for several days. The short
visit of w. ]. Bryan, however, instilled
life into the party leaders, and many
announcements have been made claim
ing the electoral vote in all doubtful
states.
While these predictions were being
made, however, it became known that
the Democratic national committee had
given up all hope of accomplishing
anything in Illinois and the speakers
had been withdrawn from this state
Though John Sharp Williams was
scheduled to speak on the South Side
tonight, it is doubtful whether he will
arrive, and in the future no more ma

Mr. Bryan conferred with party lead

had little hope of carrying Illinois.

ONE MURDERED OUTRIGHT.

Union City, Tenn, Oct. 21.-Advices

masked men early yesterday took Col
r. 2. Taylor, 60 years old, and Capt
Quinten Rankin, lawyers of Trenton,
out of their hotel at that place and
murdered the latter, fail to report Col
onel Taylor's whereabouts.
A man named Powell, who hauls fish
from THE Log to Hickman, is said
to have been forced to accompany the
mob, which numbered eighty. Powell
had been stopping at the hotel and
when the riders called every one out
and compelled them to line up, Powell.
Colonel Taylor, Capt. Rankin and the
surveyor, whose name is unknown, are
said to have been taken away, the 9th.
ers being permitted to return to their
beds.
Powell states, it is said, that after
killing Rankin a vote was taken re-
garding the disposition to be made OF
Taylor. Taylor jumped into the bayou,
starting to swim across it. Shots were
fired at him. Powell slipped away and
brought back the story of the escape
or attempted escape of Taylor.
Searchers found the trees on the edge
of the bayou clipped by bullets and
there were deep footprints in the mud
along the shore. On the other side OF
the bayou there was single footprint.
Governor Patterson arrived at Hum
boldt during the afternoon and held a
consultation with citizens of Trenton,
who came down to meet him. He an
nounced he had offered $1,000 reward
and would visit the scene in person.
Judge Joseph E. Jones called spe-
cial session of court at Union City. He
announces he will have the grand jury
impaneled at once. Governor Patter-
son will have the militia called out to
protect the court if necessary, but has
not yet been called upon by the sheriff
of Obion county.

MARSHALL THEIR FOE
Teachers Fear Repeal of the
Minimum Teachers
Wage Law.
MARSHALL'S STATEMENT.

indianapolis, Oct. 21.-When Thorn
as r. Marshall, democratic candidate
for governor, advocated the repeal of
the teachers minimum wage law in
speeches recently he apparently
struck an unpopular note with 1000
or more school teachers of half doZ-
en- counties. An effort to correct the
false impression which Mr.. Marshall
left in the minds of the people of the
counties will be made.
Solomon H. Esarey, assistant re-
porter of the supreme court, who was
formerly school teacher in Perry
county, will visit his old home next
week and will address a number of re-
publican meetings. Mr.. Esarey is not
working under the direct auspices OF
the state committee, but, knowing
what hardship the repeal of the law
would work on school teachers, he has
decided to take hand in undoing
what harm Marshall has done. Men
who are now teaching school will also
aid in the work.
The teachers wage law provides
for a minimum per diem salary of two
and one-half times the general aver.
age gained at the license examination
The repeal of the law would mean a
restoration of the authority formerly
held by township trustees to fix teach
ers' salaries, which under the old sys
tenn were as low as s1.25 a day Some
of the counties which would be affect.
ed if the law were repealed are Perry
| Crawford, Harrison, Orange, Washing
ton, Clark, Floyd, Scott, Jefferson and
Jennings. The trustees in practically
all other counties have fixed a wage
scale that conforms with the minimum
law and it is likely, it is said, that the
teachers in other counties would not
suffer by the repeal.
Mr.. Marshall is quoted as having
said that an effort to have the teach
ers wage law repealed would be one
of his first official acts If he should
be elected governor.

introducing the cigarette into Eng

Stilted Girls.

In residence street on Washington
Heights, New York. a stranger saw
girls walking around on stills.
Il don't understand this" said the
stranger. when | was youngster
it was the boys who walked on stills,
not the girls
"All the boys had stills then, and
they used to see how high up on the
sticks they could put the blocks and
still walk on them, blu. I never knew
a girl to have pair of stills.
"Oh, sometimes a girl would borrow
a pair of stills of boy and try walk
ing on them, but it was the boys who
had stills, not the girls. And now
here it is just the other way; it's the
girls, not the boys. How do you &C
count for that?"
But the person addressed, being not
quite so old as the stranger, and
not so we'll versed in ancient silt his
tory, could not say.
