Then Riddles Body of
Walter Johnston.

BLCEFIELD, w. Va, September g.
Walter Johnston, negro. accused Of as
saulting a fourteen-year-old white girl
at Princeton. w. Va. Wednesday, was
lynched late last night.
When the mob learned that Johnston
had been taken out OF town by the au-
thorities a request was made for spe-
cial train to go in pursuit Refused the
special. the mob appropriated train
of an engine and two fiat cars. 1T Is
said many Of the members Of the mob
were railroaders. friends of Mr.. White,
the victims father. A fast run was
made to Rock, from which point the mob
spread out over the country and caught
up with the fleeing officers and negro.
Plead With the Mob.
The arrival Of the mob and negro was
greeted by thousands of spectators at
Princeton. Judge j. F. Maynard and
District Attorney Pendleton pleaded with
the mob to wait until the negro was alb
solutely identified, Judge Maynard pro-
posing to convene a special term of the
criminal court to give speedy trial.
The mob seemed impressed, but about
this time Mr.. White appeared and posi-
lively identified Johnston as the as
saulter. The crowd broke into an up
roar. The negro was taken under an
arc light on the main thoroughfare and
put to death.
Riddled With Bullets.
Johnston was first hanged. and then his
body was riddled with bullets. It was the
first lynching in Mercer county in years.
Johnston is said to have entered the
White home. where the child was alone,
and choked and chlOrOformed her He
was captured later and partially identified
by his victim
After the lynching the crowd, 1t is said,
became unruy, and the authorities were
powerless to preserve order.
A special train bearing company of
militia had been started from Charleston,
but turned back at Deepwater. when it
was learned the negro had been lynched.
The militia at once proceeded to the
Kanawha strike field.

day that large portion Of the cards re-
turned were from people residing in
boarding and lodging houses. Careless
ness on the part of the proprietors Of
such places Is the principal reason given
why they wish to be exempted from the
provisions of the new postal regulations.
II is claimed that at boarding and iodg-

Another reason given Is the alleged fall

EXCELLENT WORK ON
CITY's EARTH reefs

Nc' since the laying ont of the city
OF Amarillo. even back 10 that time
when the Queen City Of the Plains
was called Rag Town" has so much
attention been given the streets as az
, present. u was the expressed be-
lief among a number OF the citizens
that when paving was begun here.
less and less attention would be- paid
the earth streets OF the city. Quite
the contrary has proven the case. for
as has heretofore been indicated
there has never been a period when
so much thought and work were Law
ished upon the highways still with
out paving.
II will be recalled that several not
ably low districts were eyesores To
the entire city during the time when
earth streets were left unattended
Thes have been remedied In the most
thorough manner under the excellent
oversight OF Commissions Agee. and
through the fundamentally OF his
superior force OF men and equipment
Now in contrast with the former con
ditiou Amarillo's notably unsightly
sections have been transformed into
perfectly satisfactory localities, Well
drained and high graded
Another department OF the work
the good Of which is becoming to be
generally recognized is the dragging
OF the earth or natural streets soon
following rains This Is giving sur
passingly good surface and more and
more the commissioner and his men
are being compimented by reason Of
the wisdom OF their work. and the
results will doubtless warrant not
only continuance but an increase in
this department Of effort for better
highways

Acute Question with

SPECIAL &c Daily News
Ausin. June 22.-According 10 a
compilation just completed by Col.
II. G. Askew. statistician for the lead
ing Texas railroads, during the first
ten months Of the present fiscal year.
ending April so last. the increased
cost OF living problem became acute
with the common carriers OF this
state This compilation shows the
business o. g. of the larger roads of
Texas during the period and Includes
all the larger lines with the single
exception OF the Orient.
For the zen months period covered
the 81 roads had a total operating
revenue Of SS9.402,2l4.9O. which is
an increase Of S2.9O7,Ooo.34 over the
total operating revenue for the cor
responding period of the preceding
fiscal year On the other hand the
81 roads had operating expenses Of
$6s, 0,33910. which was an in
crease OF s2,669,O21.0S over the op-
Grating expenses of the correspond
ing period OF the preceding fiscal
year Under the head OF other in
come such as credit balances, hire

during the same period OF the preced-
ing fiscal year. The gross corporate
income Of the 81 roads for the 10
months land gross corporate income
is the total operating revenue plus
other income less operating ex-
pensesl was $22,53o,6S2.3O or
$456,O4e.50 more than It was for the
corresponding period OF the preced-
ing fiscal year,
Out 81 this gross corporate iu-
come the roads must pay taxes,
which for the period, increased S522,-
1879 over the same period OF the
previous year debit balanccs, hire OF

fixed charges These items for the
81 roads for the period treated aggre-
gated s22,9O9,770.7O, or S3,266-
7S0.25 more than for the correspond
ing period Of the preceding fiscal
year
After subtracting these fixed
charges from the gross corporate in
come OF the roads II is found that
the net corporate income for the 10
months compiled was deficit Of
$373.OGG 40. whereas for teh same
period Of the preceding fiscal year the
81 roads had a net income Of S2,i37.-
642.35. or a difference in favor OF the
preceding year Of $2,S10.73O.75,
Normally additions and better
ments (which is the technical term
for improvements on existing proper
ties) should be paid out Of the net
income. But for the period by the
compilation the g roads as a whole
had no net income. However, during
the ten months period ending April
30. 1911, the 81 roads spent for
these improvements 10 existing prop
critics the sum Of $6,i13,20l "a, while
the same roads spent but S5,346-
427.47 for such improvements dur
ing the ten months ending April 80,

than was spent during the same per-
