MEANING of Cemetery.

1t is not correct to say that GENE
terry" means the city of the dead"
The word is from the Greek "Koime-
terion," meaning sleeping place, not
the place of the dead. There is nothing
in the thinking that it was originally
intended to convey the idea that the
departed were really dead any more
than there is in the old Hebrew term
for cemetery-"Bethaim"-the house
of the living.

After Purse Snatcher.

The mob began forming shortly after
dark and as soon as the talk of a
lynching reached Sheriff Nellis he ap.
pealed to Governor Deneen for troops
and swore in five deputies. A crowd
gathered about the Jail about 8 o'clock,
but no attempt to rush the structure
was made until shortly before mid
night.
Nellis made good his promise to
shoot and several in the moi went
down at the first volley. Following
the volley, the mob withdrew to a
safe distance and began firing into
the Jail, breaking the windows but in
juring none of the defenders.
The injured were carried away by
friends and the extent of their injur-
les as well as their identity was con-
cealed.
John Pratt, the negro the mob in
tended to lynch and who was given an
indeterminate sentence of not more
than IA years in the Chester peniten-
