Man Is Attacked by Infu-
rlated Mob

PALERMO, July 3.-The other even
Ing at Comiso (Syracuse) a former
convict named Giuseppe Lombardo as
the result of some trifng dispute, bar
barously killed three persons and was
reported to have attempted to commit
suicide. He had, however, taken refuge
in the open country. An enormous
amount of INDICATION was caused by
his crime, and when he fell into the
hands of the population he was
lynched.
After remaining without food for
twenty-four hours Lombardo was
urged by hunger to return to the vii
lage toward 10 in the morning. With
astonishing audacty he entered a
bakery situated in one of the principal
streets. He was Immediately recog-
nized and a large crowd of men, women
and boys soon gathered round the shop.
Lomhardo attempted to escape, and
did succeed in effecting a passage
through the human barrier. He had.
however, scarcely gone twenty PAGES
before he was tripped up by a stick
which was thrown at his legs and fell
to the ground.
The crowd then surrounded him, and
shouting death to the assassin!" pum-
meled and kicked him severely. Final
ly his skull was smashed by a blow
from heavy stick All that remained
for the authorities to do when they ar
rived on the scene was to carry away
the corpse.

The anniversary of the birth of

tifully observed Tuesday evening
by the United Daughters of the

decorated with flags and bunting.
Mrs. G. 0. Hubbs, presidentof the

presided, and Mrs. A. d. Parnell,
secretary, called the numbers of
the program.
The eulogy of Mr.. Hooser on
the life and character of Robert
E. Lee, one of the worlds greatest
generals, was listened to with in
terest by the large audience. The
speaker also feelingly pictured the
condition of the Confederate dur
ing and following the close OF the
civil war.
The readings by Misses Corrinne
Greer and Allie B. Combs were
enjoyed and appreciated. The
musical part of the program was
especially good, several leading
vocalists Of Camden contributing.
The browning feature of the
evening was the presentation of
Crosses of Honor to the Confeder-
ate veterans, many of whom were
present. The audience was dis
missed with prayer by Rev. b. W.
Nelson.

A great deal is being said about
the roads of our county. We all
realize that we need good roads,
but just how we are to get them
seems to be puzzling question.
Some say vote a tax for road pur-
poses. Others say issue bonds.
Under the present law we will
never have roads until more labor
is expended on them. But some
object to working fxe days on the
road each year; some don't want to
work because they are too old, and
others because they are crippled
in some way-just enough to re-
lease them from road service-but
not enough to prevent them from
driving a team over the road or
doing a good days work some
where else, and yet thew say tive
need good roads and must have
them"

GOOD COMPANY FOX 1909.

You are careful what choice of friends
the young people of your household
make. You do not open wide the door
to those whose speech and behavior be-
tray ill-breedipg and lax morals Are
you as careful to shut it against books
and periodicals that present vulgar and
demoralizing pictures of life and it's pur-
pose? Perhaps you are among those who
have found that the Youth Companion
occupies the same place in the family
reading that the high-mindedy young man
or woman holds among your associates.
The Companion is good without being
"goody-g oody." 1t is entertaining, it is
informing. In its stories it depicts life
truly, but it chooses those phases of life
in which duty, honor, loyalty are the
guiding motives.
