Fear Lynching of Negro.

Washington, Ca, Oct, 31.-J. B.
Walker, the self-confessed negro
murderer of G. S. Hollenshead in
Wilkes county Saturday afternoon,
who has already escaped a mob OF
$50 men, is now in the custody OF
Sheriff Bobo, of Wilkes, but there is
every indication that a determined
effort will be made tonight to take
him from the hands of the law and
finish the unsuccessful job of Satur-
day night.
It is reported Sheriff Bobo and
deputies are hurrying the negro from
Lincolnton to Augusta, and that a
large mob, many of them in automo-
biles, is in pursuit. It is believed that
if the sheriff fails to get his prisoner
over the muddy roads safely into Au-
gusta ahead of the mob a lynching
will be certain. Feeling is very high
in Lincoln county, as we'll as Wilkes,
and it is believed that Lincoln coun-
ty men are the pursuers.

NEGRO R1DDLED WITH BULLETS.
Runs Amuck and Attempts to Shoot
Everybody in Sight.

New Orleans, Nov. Policemen
George A. Roussell and Joseph La
coste were fatally wounded. and
three citizens, Joe Spencer, Washing
ton Lawrence and John McGheavy,
badly beaten up to-day when an un-
known negro, armed with revolvers,
ran amuck on the Algiers Ferry land
ing, across the Mississippi river from
this city. The negro finally was kill
ed by citizens, who came to the as
sistance of the wounded officers.
The shooting took place just as the
ferry reached the Algiers landing.
Declaring that he would "get -
white man." the negro fired five shots
promiscuously, >reloading his pis-
tol and drawing a second one, start
ed up the ferry landing, firing right
and left. Officers Lacoste and Rous-
sell were shot through the body and
nearby citizens opened fire on the
negro. Without attempting to reload
his revolvers, the negro attacked by
standers with the butt end of his
weapons, and dubbed three before he
fell dead, his body riddled by several
bullets.

MINISTER HELD FOR MURDER.
Header of Holy Ghost and Us Society
Released on Bond.

Portland, Me-, Nov. 1.-The Rev.
Frank w. Sandford, leader of the
Holy Ghost and Us Society of Shiloh,
was held at preliminary hearing
to-day for trial before the December
term of the United States court on a
scharge of causing the death of Chas.
Hughey, on board the yacht Coronet,
sby failing to provide proper and suf-
sficient food when the yacht put to
sea. United States Commissioner
SBradley placed the bond at $4,000.
which was furnished, and Sanford
was released.
An interesting feature of the hear
ing was the introduction of the Shl-
1oh creed. One portion, relating to
the leadership, read:
:.I believe that the Rev. Frank
Nv. Sandford, of Shiloh, Maine, tells
the truth when he makes proc]ama-
aion that God said unto him, Elijah
is here, testify and again, I have
found David's words spoken as apply
Ing to him personally. l believe IN
and accept him as such. -
DR.. Charles E. Banks, of the ma
rine hospital, testified that Charles
Hughey, as well as John Bolster, an
other follower of Sanford, died OF
starvation, complicated with scurvy.

Sensational Report.

Birmingham, Ala, Nov. 1.-The
most sensational grand jury report
in many years was submitted to the
Jefferson county criminal court here
to-day and while IS indictments
were returned the names of none OF
the men indicted had been made
public tonight pending the service
papers.
The report hinges on recent allie
cations that certain oficeholders
have Influenced corporations to hold
back their tax assessments until the
officials can proceed against them
and get commission for such extra
taxes.
It is also charged in the report
that out of 24,5O2 registered voters
in the county 9,493 are disqualified
and it finds that many illegal votes
were cast in recent elections. The
report calls the conditions "a dis
grace to civilization says there
have been six assassinations at
Lewisburg in two years and not a
single man convicted and all wit
nesses intimidated against the peace
system of the county as an out
rage"
The grand jury was composed OF
some of the most prominent men in
the county.

Wealthy Child Made Slave.

Cincinnati, Nov. Federal au-
lahorities here will prosecute case
of white slavery. Chief of Police
jackson says, on a complaint made
TO him to-day by Clettie Waddie, 20,
against Mrs. Matte Chestnut. The
xirl said her father is rich distiller
and has farm of 200 acres in Cain
town, KY. The Chestnut woman had
lived nearby in Somerset, and after
moving here wrote to the girl, &C
cording to her story, urging her to
come on visit. Having accepted the
Invitation she found herself captive.
Mrs. Chestnut made complete de-
NAL of the girls story and said she
came Of her free will and had never
been under restraint. The story came
out after a raid on the Chestnut
house. Chief Jackson says he thinks
the girl truthful and as it is an IN
terstate affair the federal prosecutors
will have an opportunity to make q
national example of it.

Seven Girls Perish.

Chehalis, Wash, Nov. 1.-Fire
which destroyed the powder factory
of the Imperial Powder company
here late to-day caused seven young
women employed in the factory to
lose their lives and an eighth prob
bly, will die.
Only two girls escaped although a
dozen men are unhurt.
The cause of the fire is mystery:
The girls were hurled together and
owing to the rapid spread OF the
flames could not escape from behind
counter where they were working.
Four of the company's buildings
were destroyed together with equip
ment and many tons of manufactur-
ed powder. The loss is $4,000 or
more.

to boost our great county by showing
the products grown on It's soil and
the great prospects for the future.

the progress of all the people TO
come and help make this fair sue
cess. II

ducts. We cannot afford for them to
be better to us than we are to them.

them to help us in this great boost
ing and uplifting movement.

Industrial fairs ever held in this
county.

DEER HUNTER KILLS TWO MEN.
New Jersey Man Shot in Direction Of
NOise-NOW i'm Jail.

Mays Landing, N. j., Nov. L.
Eager to have shot at deer, which
he supposed was coming down an un-
used road in the gloom of the early
dawn to-day, Charles Norcross, OF
Iona, N. j., fired into a party of four
other hunters, killing two and Sc
riously wounding third. The dead
are:
Conrad Steelman, % years old, OF
Pleasantville, N. j.; John Yost, 81,
Pleasantville. Injured: VIM. Jarvis,
Pleasantville.
Norcross is in the Atlantic coun-
ty Jail here, awaiting the action OF
the coroner. He is badly broken up
over his fatal mistake.
According to Norcross's state
ment, made to a justice of the peace,
at Mintola, he was standing behind
some underbrush at the side of a
road when he heard noise. Not
thinking that any other hunters were
in the vicinity, and believing that
the sound came from a deer walking
down the road, Norcross says he rails
ed his gun and fired one barrel OF
buckshot in the direction of the
noise. Before he could lower his
gun there was shrek and, jumping
out of the underbrush, he was hor-
rifed to see three men lying in the
road. Relaxing in an instant the
terrible mistake he had made Nor
cross went for the other members
of his party and the three injured
men were placed in the automobile
and rushed to Pleasantville. One of
the victims died in six minutes and
the other lived 25 minutes.
Norcross comes from respectable
family. He is said to be man of
good habits, is married and has two
children. The victims were strangers
to him.

$4,000 for a Calf.
Milwaukee, Wis, Oct. 80.

Milwaukee, Wis, Oct. 3O.-The
price of $4,000 agreed upon between
w. H. Tichnor, of Oconomowoc, Wis,
and F. L. Ames, of North Easton,
Mass, for the purchase of a calf, is
probably the highest on record. The
peculiar feature of the contract is
that the calf is yet unborn, though
the visit of the stork to the stall OF
the famous Dolly is expected in the
near future.
Dolly is considered by experts to
be the most valuable Guernsey cow
in the world and has attracted a great
deal of attention at the internation-
al dairy show here.
Well posted dairymen declare that
the price is a record-breaker, aside
from the conditions under which the
contract was made.
