NEGRO HANGS TOMORROW.

Henry Belts, the negro who
murdered J w. Smith, a white
farmer, last September, will be
hanged tomorrow in the court
house yard. The scaffold has
been erected just back of the of
fee of chancery clerk, between
the wings of the court house and
the Jail, and is screened from
view on the streets by the build
ings. To prevent the spectacle
being observed by children in the
Franklin academy, the only angle
from which it could possibly be
seen, the sheriff has had the
scaffold surrounded by heavy
bagging.
The murder for which Belts
will hang was marked by delib-
crate brutality. Mr.. Smith after
holding a conversation with the
negro concerning crop conditions
on the public road near Chowder
Springs, had ridden away when
he was shot in the back of the
head with a shot gun. The ne
gro dragged the body to the side
of the road, went to his home, a
mile or so away, got a spade. and
returning to the body dug a
trench, and finding that the body
would not go into it, broke the
legs with the spade until itwould
fit,
The hour at which Belts will
hang tomorrow has not been
made known by the sheriff.

between forty and fifty thousand

Ober believes in the short term
campaign for best results. and
he also thinks that after 25 per
cent. of the amount needed for
the building is collected as a
neucleus, that the balance will
be easy to obtain.
