okLAHoMA's FIRST LYNcHINo
Negro Hung to Pole and Riddled
with Bullets.

Muskogee, Okla.-Riddled with
bullets, the body of James Gar
den, a negro, dangled from a telegraph
pole Tuesday night in the center of
Henrietta, Okla, a coal mining town
30 miles southwest of here, as the re-
suit of the first lynching in the new
state. Garden at noon Tuesday shot
aud killed Albert Bates, a white man,
because Bates, who is a well-known
liveryman, refused to rem a rig to the
negro. Garden said that Bates was
discriminating against him because Of
his color and, going across the street
for a pistol, Garden returned and
killed Bates. Garden was lodged In
Jail, and a mob Of a hundred men
battered down the door Of the jail, and
in spite of the efforts of the officers,
secured Garden and hung him to a
nearby pole. They then riddled the
body with bullets. All the negroes in
Henrietta are terrorized and o
than a hundred came from there to
Muskogee. There is a negro in the
Henrietta Jail, who, 1t was feared,
would be lynched before morning.

Rome-The young Warehouses
Guglielmetti, daughter Of a wealthy
a~ristocrat, and Signor Spalletti,
a tenor engaged by Conreid to
appear next season in New York. were
found dead early Saturday in the con-
%servatory adjoining the villa Of the
young woman's father in the outskirts
of this city.
The tragedy is believed to be the
result Of parental opposition to the
courtship, and to the jealousy of some
member Of the aged marquis house
hold.
Spalletti and his sweetheart had
met clandestinely in the conservatory.
When found they were locked in from
the outside. There were several doors
through which they might have left,
but all were securely fastened, rem
dering escape impossible without
alarming the household.
How they died has not been def
nitely determined. One explanation
offered is that, finding discovery in
evitable, they poisoned themselves.
The police incline to the thtory, ad-
vanced by several physicians, that the
couple were %suffocated by the intense
fragrance of the magnolias, gardenias
and tube roses with which the room
was filled.

Chicago, Ill.-Dr. Joseph Peasden,
a scientist, occupying n of the fore
most positions with Nelson Morris
& Co., Wednesday night indicated by
signs to Drs. ]. B. Murphy, Frank Wei
land and other physicians at his side
In the Chicago Baptist hospital that he
realized the attack Of lockjaw from
which he is suffering would prove ia
tai, and begged them to end his life
with a drug.
The surgeons hesitated before the
dumb appeal of this man of science,
probably more skilled in the effects of
the disease which had seized him than
any other in this country, and then
turned away, for fear that they might
grant his wishes.
When he found that the law, written
and unwritten, would not permit his
fellows to end his s%ufferings, DR.. Peas
den resigned himself to the care of the
nurses. He heard his physician say
that if he lived another day there was
hope for him. He shook his head.
On Christmas Eve, while arranging
a Christmas tree for his children in
his home at 1882 Lincoln street, DR..
Peasden was stricken with acute lock-
Jaw. BY the aid of a pencil and piece
of paper he directed the members Of
his family to send him to a hospital,
and his first act was to send for a law
yer and draw up a will, leaving his
estate to his Wife'S five children. Then
be asked Drs. Murphy and Weiland to
consult with DR.. Fdderick c. Hanmore,
chief surgeon of the Morris Company.
DR.. Peasden is the head of the fertil-
lzer and glue department of Nelson
Morris & Co. He was born in Ger
many 46 years ago. In the line of his
studies tetanus was included, and he
Is recognized as one of the ablest ex-
perts on lockjaw in all it's forms.

Erie, Pa.-While distributing the
Christmas bundles in the South
Erie p~ostofHce Tuesday afternoon, ar
employee became suspicious Of q pack
age, the end of which had broken
open and, upon making an ~investiga-
ton, the package was found to con-
tain an Internal machine SO construct
ed that the opening of the box would
cause an explosion that would have
undoubtedly killed all persons near 1t
and set fire to everything in the vicin-
ity.
The package was addressed to
Archie Carr, 220S Cherry street, and
had been mailed in this city. The box
was turned over to Postmaster Sobel,
who called in Chief of Police Wagner.
The chief cut out the side of the box
and exposed a bottle and c~ontriyances
so arranged that the opening of the
lid would pull the cork and ignite sew
eral matches. The following inscrip-
kon was on the inside wrapper:
You may perhaps find the cover

box, but pay 10 attention to 1t. Merry
Christmas.
DR.. w. j. Wright, health officer and
chemist, after an examination of the
bottle, said 1t contains a high explo-
sive, but would give no other details
until after further examination. A
postoffice inspector is expected here

st. Joseph, Mo.-Three young men
have been captured by a posse in the
woods on the Platte river near Edger-
ton Junction and charged with the
robbery of the Bank of Camden Point.
They were taken to Platte City.
The capture was made by citizens
after a nights chase northwest into
the hill country.
The bank was looted during the
night by blowing the safe with dyna-
mite. The robbers obtained $500,
which was recovered after the cap
ture.
One of the bandits has been identi.
fed as Clyde Reed, 25 years old, son
Of John G. Reed, a wealthy Platte
county farmer, near Edgerton. An.
other gives his name as Harry O'Neel.
He Is said to be unknown in Platte
county.
Cornered In Cornfieid.
At 8 o'clock a posse, headed by
Deputy Sheriff AL Turner of Weston,
captured Reed and one of his COM
panions in Joseph Herndon's cornf1eld,
about a mile southwest of Edgerton
Junction. The third member of the
party is supposed to be still in that
vicinity, and the officers are confident
he will be taken within a short time.
No resistance was made by the two.
The robbers had planted the coin in
a strawstack on George McLean's
farm, and at first Reed and his COM
panion refused to divulge the hiding
place. Threats of hanging brought
about the desired result and the mon
ey was recovered.
While the robbery was done by anna
tours, they did a good job in removing
the vault door. Diamond drills were
used to permit the insertion of nitro
glycerin and, although it required
many charges to penetrate the vault,
they finally succeeded. The vault is
practically a wreck. Windows we're
shattered and considerable furniture
in the bank damaged.
