 James was strung up to the public arch the nope broke, and at least 800 shots were poured into his body. He made pacaial confession and impli- cated the negro, Arthur Alexander, and the mob has gone out to look for him
 aames was lynched in the most prominent square in the city, at Eighth ana Commercial streets.
 Women were told to pull the rope. When 1t broke the frenzy of the mob was uncomfortable and they fired vol icy after volley into his body, shoot ing him to pieces The mob then drag ged the body over the streets for more than mile, to Twemty-sixth and Elm streets. in an alley, and burned it where the murder was committed.
 At least 10000 people witnessed the lynching.
 James was found with Sheriff Davis between KaTnak. H.. and Belknap, by the crowd from Cairo, who went up this afternoon. The crowd nveapow- cred the officers and took the negro from the mani after a conference is was decided to bring the negro back to this city and lynch him here.

Cairo, H., Nov. 12.--With two men lynched by an angry mob, another in imminent danger and the streets filled with wild eyed men, Cairo, after a sleepless night of murder and riot, walled anxiously this morning for the hundreds of soldiers on the way to quell the mob at the orders of Cover nor Deneen.
 Will tfFroggy'') James, negro, confessed muderer of Annie Pelly, was hanged. riddled with bullets and burn. ed early last night. after a thousand men had chased Sheriff Davis and the negro for twenty-fonr hours and seiz. ed the prisoner.
 Henry sSaignar white, held for ux- orcide. was hger taken from a steel cell in the county jail and hanged and shot by the infuriated men, who up to that time were unsuccessful in capturing Arthur Alexander, a negro, implicated by James as an accomplice in ihe slsying of Miss Pelly
 Alexander was at last found by the police, who succeeded in eluding the mob by ruse.
 Although ehe horrors of a race war had not broken out during the night, peaceable citizens had begun to fear that repetition of the Springfield aiots of last year was imminent. At Springfield two negroes were lynched, four other persons Killed and sixty wounded.
 With the arrival today of armed troops 1t is thought that further riot ing will be avoided
 The 1000 men roaming the streets up till daybreak had access to many saloons. which remained open all night Mayor Parsons and the chief of police were unable to close the sa- Icons because they were shut up at home by the mob. Soldiers of the Cairo militia flnally went to guard the homes of the municipal officials and kept the rioters in some restraint.

FLOOD OF NEW SUBSCRIBERS KEEP POURING INTO SEN
 TlNEL-REcoRD OFFICE.
Heavy 5aIloting Makes Surprising Changes in the Standing of Candidates in the Tour
 Contest.

Notwithstanding the many attempts it has been making to rain the hast two or three days the Sentinel Rec ord's personally conducted Tour of Europe voting contest continues to flourish like a green bay tree and It's ultimate success is already assured. though the first peIsod has not yet been completed.
 The balloting was pretty heavy, their being about 15.000 votes cast and resulted in relative standing of the candidates in each of the districts as well as placing two new leaders. Miss Mary Mooney reached the high seat in the First district, whihe Miss Bancroft advanced considerably and by so doing retains second place. Misses Jones and Bailey also voted heavily and are in nice positions to advance for first place.
 In the Second district Miss Helen Baboock gave up third position. but aScended to the top of the list, and as there are none of the contestants who have an option on this place, you can't always tell who will be who the next day. Misses Sanders, Barnett sifd Smith also nade their share or the gains, as did others in this dis trict.
 Subscriptions Pouring In.
 Yesterday scores of subscriptions were turned in at the Sentinel-Rec office by contestants, their supporters and people who would call at the of fee, making inquiries. paying sub scriptions and carrying away special ballots. that they may assist some favorite in the contest. Do you know that this contest is going to be the most successful affair ever pulled off in this section of the state? Here Is the reason. The trips are more than worth the efforts necessary to win them; the contest is high class; 1t is positively fair in every respect to all; the paper is popular; the list Of candidates competing Is the very best that could possibly be secured and the conditions are so easy that most any one could be successful.
 [, Public Interested.
 If the candidates had the slightest idea of how great the interest in the contest is and how eager and anxious the public is to know the full parti culars and how busy the entire staff of this paper has been kept during the last few days answering questions. in person. by mail and telephone. you would be more surprised than you ever were before There will be the brightest, best and jolliest set of girls on this delightful thirty-six day tour to Europe that you possibly assemble. Who would not support or work for this proposition? It means post graduate course for those who are for tGnate enough to take the trip. And without any expense whatever.
