Lorn made a success of the venture. =
The corporation will have a capital
of q quarter million dollars. The
rroiect will relieve almost unbearable
lrnndit;ons here in the way of renting
houses.
r B. Terry has been named chair
man Of committee which will secure

,,iIl be taken up data available sub

Two prominent business men have

invest $4,000 each. Business men
darIare they will have no trouble in
forming $25O,O0O corporation, Or
~ even larger one should it be nee
essaIE.
Several sites for the proposed de-
vpIopment have alreday been inspect
od but no definite selection has yet
bppn made, nor will it until the merits
and dement's have been thoroughly
discussed.
Il is not believed there will be any
difficulty in securing a street car ex-
tension to whatever site is selected.
i tract of SO acres, as close in as pos
sible. will probably be purchased.
This will give room for four houses
to the acre of land, and will provide
the home with a good sized lot for a
garden and lawn.
The type Of houses to be built has,
not been discussed yet, but will pos
sihlv be of five or six and seven
rooms. The purchaser will pay for
them lust like renting a house, or
much on the same order as the oper-
a5i0n Of a building and loan assOcia-
ton.
Practically the same scheme is be-
i9g followed in other cities, where
Hc :; n conditions have become con-
gested owing to the let up OF pufd-
ing operations during the period. Of
the war.
In High Point housing conditions
are admittedly critical. Many more
people would come to High Point,
but they find the problem Of securing
1lace to live almost an insurmount-
able one. Business men have not
been slow to realize the fact that the
future development of the city de-
pends, in large measure, on its abil-
ity to house new citizens. They are
determined to make every effort to
relieve this conditions, and to start
operations as soon as practicable.

SOUTH CAN'T MATCH
ATTEMPT TO LYNCH MAYOR OF
@OMAHA A DASTARDLY CRIME.

Regains Consciousness Early Today
But Is Still i'm Critical Condition: /:
Million and Half Dollar Fire Ragged
While Mob Lynched a Negro.
Omaha, Sept. 29.-Mayor E. P.
Smith, injured late yesterday when a
mob attempted to lynch him, was still
IN critical condition today, reports
from the hospital indicated. It was
stated he had recovered consciousness.
His physician said, however, it was
too early to make any definite state
ment as to his condition.
After a night of mob rule, during
which a negro was lynched and an
attempt was made to hang the mayor,
E. P. Smith, the county courthouse
burned, one man shot and killed, and
perhaps 40 others injured, the city
was quiet today under patrol of fed
eral troops from Fort Crook and
Fort Omaha. The mayor is at the
hospital and was in a critical condi-
tion early today as the result of an
attempt made by the mob to hang
him to trolley pole because he ad-
vised against the lynching of William
Brown, negro, charged with at
tacking a white girl last week.
Mayor Smith was seized by the mob
near the courthouse at 10 o'clock and
was threatened with lynching. He
was hustled to Harvey street and
stopped at the foot of trolley pole on
the cross arm of which was a coil
Of rope.
"Give US the key to the Jail. If we
can't get the negro we'll lynch you.
He's no better than the negro. He's a
negro lover" we're shouts heard
among the mob. ~"Get that rope"
someone shouted. It was pulled down
by loose end Gbut. was not long
enough. A man climbed the pole and
with knife cut it. 1t was brought
down and placed around the neck of
the mayor.
Appalled, at the possibility of muir
dering the city's executive protests
began to be heard. Then two off
GERS cut the rope and carried the may
or to an automobile and rushed him
to hospital.
The fire that was started in the
courthouse left it mass of ruins.
The property was valued at million
and half dollars.
For several hours the lives of more
than 100 prisoners in the jail were
endangered by the flames in the low 2
er floors. It was finally necessary to
send them all to the roof. 1t was at
this time that the mob that had gain
ed an entrance to the burning building
pushed past the sheriff and forced
their way to the cell corridor. Here
1t was that the negro was turned
over to them.
Throwing a rope around his neck
these men, numbering about So, drag
ged him to the ground floor down
sitting stairways and through blind
ing smoke to the street. He was prac-
tically dead before his body was
strung to the light pole.
Browns body was mutilated beyond
recognition. Riddled by thousand
bullets, it was first placed over fire
of tarred fagots. He was not permit
ted to remain there long and was soon
being dragged through the street at
the end~of a rope. This spectacle did
not end until late in the morning
hours when what remained Of the
torso was hung to a trolley pole. The
arrival of the federal troops caused
a dispersal of the mob.
