MAY LYNCH TAMPA FIREBUG.
Man Caught Setting Fire Wounded
Hurried to- Jail.

Tampa, Fla, May 25.-FolloWing
a series of incendiary fires extending
over period of three weeks, George
Green, a negro, was surprised, with
two companions, while lighting fire
in vacant house in West Tampa at
midnight and shot three times in the
back. His two companions escaped.
Green was hurried to the West
Tampa Jail, where strong guard
was placed over him. The frequency
of fires since the receipt of the first
of a series of anonymous letters ad-
dressed to the chief of police and fire
chief has thoroughly aroused the COM
munity.
It is believed that unless Green
dies before morning he will be lynch
ed. Officers are searching for the
two companions of Green. The fire
which the negroes were caught kind
ling was the third of the night in
West Tampa.

Glad When Child Died.

The Woman's Home Companion re-
Gently published short story in
which a woman gives one OF her ba-
bies to friend of hers who wants a
child but can never have one, because
of terrible injuries received in a rail-
road wreck. The woman who re-
ceives the gift never finds out who
gives her the child.
In the June Woman's Home Com
panion a woman commenting on this
story writes the following letter and
tells the following true story of her
own experience with an adopted
child:
when I had been married several
years and had no child, I per-
suaded by husband to allow me to
adopt one. We lived in a small town
some fifty miles from Minneapolis. l
went to that city and searched
through the Maternity Hospital,
'Sheltering Arms and such places,
without finding any little baby girl
for adoption.
mot long after I returned home,
1 received misspelled letter from q
woman who said she had been in
formed that wished a baby girl to
adopt. She gave me the date of her
marriage, the date Of her baby 8
birth, and stated that her husband
had desterted her; she was not strong
enough, she feared, to work and care
properly for her baby, and if 1 would
take it for mine and give it a chance
she would be glad.
"I made another trip to the city,
found the poor mother ironing in a
hot room (it was June,) and looking
ready to drop. Although she sobbed
so that she could not speak, she put
her precious child into my arms, only
gasping as I took my departure, You
can give her chance; I can't
"Your story did not end; mine did.
The baby was so weakened by lack OF
fresh air, proper food and care, that,
in spite of all could do, with doc
tor and nurse, she died in four
weeks. It was with fear and trem-
bling that I wrote the mother. Her
answer was, Thank God! 1t is so
much easier to know that she is dead
than that another woman has her. u

NEGRO ATTEMPTS MURDER.
Storekeeper Near Summerville Badly
Wounded by Desperate.

Summerville, May 27.-On Satur-
day evening at about o'clock the
store of Mr.. Osborne Davis, situated
at the eastern limits of Summerville
in Berkeley county, was entered by a
negro named Samuel Johnson. There
were others in the store, one of whom
was indulging too profanely, and Mr..
Davis gave him notice that he would
have to desist. Johnson interfered,
pulled from his pocket large knife,
and without the slightest intimation
or provocation, cut Mr.. Davis from
about the right ear through the back
of the neck and almost severing the
neck to the left ear, exposing the
bone head from the body. Physi-
clans were called Immediately to the
aid of Davis and the wound was care
fully and skillfully treated. During
the difficulty Mr.. Davis clerk was
severely stabbed in the arm.
Johnson left the store, anu as ne
did so was struck in the head with a
beer bottle from a negro standing
nearby and knocked senseless. John
son soon after was taken into custo-
dy by officer Miller, and is now in the
town lookup, awaiting developments
and action of the Berkeley authori-
ties.
Mr.. Davis is young married man,
inoffensive and kind-hearted, an in
valid from rheumatism and suffered
the loss of hand some years ago in
operating machinery at a local plant.
His condition to-day is precarious
and critical and the result may be
fatal.
