COnvicts Lynch Negro.

Convicts in the Wyoming peniten-
tiary lynched Frank Wigfall, the ne
gro assailant Of Mrs. Esther Gran
N.Y. Higgins, aged Y and known as
the prisoners friend. Wigfall was
rushed to the penitentiary to escape
a mob on the outside. While at
breakfast the guard was overpower-
ed before he could thrust the negro
into cell and himself locked in a
cell by the Infatuated conv;cts.
One of the convicts produced a
rope and while others held the negro
he tossed a half hitch over the ne
gro's head and made the other end
fast to the balcony rail of the cell
house. The negro was tossed over
the rail and the convicts marched
back to their work.
Not until the cries Of the impris-
oned guard brought other guards
was the lynching known to any eX-
cept those who took part in it.
Sunday night Wigfall broke into
Mrs. Higgins house, chopping down
a door with an axe. About dawn
Monday he left her in q pitiful condi-
tion.

ABOUT THAT NEW
EXEMPTION LAW
County Attorneys Opinion on $1,000
For Exemption for Old Soldiers
and Sailors.

The 34th general assembly passed
the following act relating to the ex-
emption from taxes of soldiers, sail
ors and their widows:
Section /. "The property not to
exceed twelve hundred dollars in ac-
tual value, of any honorably dis
charged union soldier or sailor of
the rebellion or of the widow remain
ing unmarried of such soldier or
sailor. 1t shall be the duty Of every
assessor annually to make list OF
such soldiers, sailors, widows and to
return such list to the county auditor,
upon forms to be furnished by such
auditor for that purpose; but the fail
ure on the part of the assessor so
to do shall not affect the validity of
any exemption. All soldiers, sailors
or widows thereof referred to herein
shall receive a reduction of twelve
hundred dollars at the time the as,
sessment is made by the assessor I'M
less waiver thereof is voluntarily
made of said exception at said
time"

EARLY CAMPAIGN
AGAINST THE FLY
Women's Organizations at Moline
Have Declared War Opened In
Proper Form.

It looks like it were premature, and
vet the old proverb teaches us to-
prepare for war in time of peace.
And so. perhaps after all, this may be
the proper time to organize for the
campaign against the fly. The Ice
bridge is still intact and there Is much
snow on the ground. Similar condt-
lions prevail at Moline, HI But that
does not deter the Queen Esther Circle
of the Kings Daughters of Moline.
who have started the campaign
against the house fly, and who Will see
to it that there is the greatest possible
amount of real swatting done and that
other measures are taken to keep
down the fly. OF course II the cam
paign is on when the first fly makes It's
appearance, and if the first flies are
killed off as fast as they appear, there
will be no myriad of flies to plague
Moline later on The ladies of Moline
are evidently not working alone IN
this matter, and they have the ASSIST
ance of the board of health, the VISIT
ing nurse, the press and practlcaily
everybody in the town. 1T is proposed
to begin the distribution of the proper
kind of literature at once, also to ln-
struct the assistants in the health de-
partment and to educate the public IN
general The circle proposes to set
aside fund to buy screens and mo-
souito netting for those who are I'M
able to make such improvements. And
this idea seems to be winning favor
in Moline, as the visiting nurse in
formed the Circle that she had already
received several donations for that
very purpose.
The Moline organization is evident
Nv an energetic, Woodworking body
and at the same time one that believes
in taking up the right thing at the
right time, and then doing it. Various
plans for raising money have been
tried and proven successful, and the
Circle is ready for the fray. 1t has
read that for carrying on war OF
any kind, the first requisite is money
and that the second is money and the
third is money having well laid their
plans and filed their treasury, they
are looking forward with GOODNESS and
/ courage to the opening of the cam
paign and are predicting that they are
going to make Moline the original
fiyless town
