Thero was a warm time In tho Central
Labor tinfoil Inst night over several things.
The n.ost timely probably was the ques
tion ot tho chdrKPB pcnillng nsalnst John
lledcll, e.hlof of tho Omaha flro ilrpart
' nicnt. The mutter was brought up on a
resolution sent In by tho numbers' union
These resolutions utatcil that ho thowed
Unfriendliness to labor by umployfng tha
Bremen to do the work of union men n.slile
from tholr duty as llremen; that he mado
them perform duty after flrcH on the scene
of tho conllitKratlon, thus throwing la
borers out of employment. Tlio resolu
tions wcro Bent to the Central Labor union
for endorsement. Similar rssolutlons wore
presented by tho Hodcnrrlorii union. AV.
H. Dell thought that It was not tho plnce
of .tho Central Labor union to mix In tha
fight. J, J. Kerrigan agreed with W. II.
Dell, George Kussell favored tho resolu
tion. Peter Oreen thought that the resolu
tion should prevail. A motion to tablo the
resolution prevailed by a vote of 20 to "4.
Peter Oreen, from the numbers' union,
's'tsted tint since tho resolution prevailed
there was no place In tho Central Labor
union for men of the building trades. Tho
dcslro of four unions was defeated by this
action.
The Electricians' union asked that the
fight on tho musical festival be endorsed
by the Central Labor union. Prod Moore
of the Ilorseshoers thought the maitar
should have been brought up sooner.
George E. Russell wanted no Interference
.ulth thn proceedings now In progress for
the 'settlement of tho trouble. John Les
entlne of the imulclanK wanted tho mat
ter to go to the arbitration committee
The matter was referred to the arbitration
eonimlttco with power to act In conjunc
tion with the committee of tho electricians
and musicians.
The delegate from ,tho Typographical

to rescind tho action of the body In de
claring tho Wistcrn Laborer unfair. K. A.
Willis, who did not vo'.o on tho resolu
tion, desired to have his vote recorded In
tho allli'iatlve nnd made a motion that the
resolution bu rescinded. This brought up
a storm of protest and Mollis Tyler, wh'i
positively voted In tho affirmative, moved
tho pasjago of the Typographical union' J
resolution. Thero was a clash between V.
II. Hull and (Icorgo Klcffner. the termor
being In favor of the icpeal by u simple
majority and tho latter standing for two
thirds majority In order to repeal. The
tnlk went over all phases of tho question
and by a vote of IS to I" It was decided not
to rescind the resolution.
The following delegates wero obllsa'.cd:

CARHOLLTON, Gp.. June 7. Tho ncrvo
of a Georglr. sheriff, Joseph Merrill, today
upheld tho law of tho stnto and haved tho
llfo of n negro from a mob. In protect
ing thn negro, who was saved from tho
gallows only a few hours befcro through
tho efforts of his lawyers, ono life wnu lost
nnd two men wero wounded. The arrival of
tho stato militia averted threatened troublu
tonight, und at !t o'clock a special train
bearing tho negro, whoso crime was tho
murder of n little white boy whom he found
lulling alone, was speeding towards At
lanta, undor guard. Tho mnn killed In at
tacking tho Jail was Georgo Ilcnnctt ot
Carrnllton, and the wounded men aru
Thomas Smith, also of Carrollton, and
nn unknown man, presumably a farmer,
Thomas S. Word, father of the murdered
boy, who was In tho front rank of tho
'would-be lynchers, wns not hit. After
Dennett fell Mr. Word Jumped upon a
window sill and exclaimed, dramatically;
"Shoot mo, Mr, Sheriff, I would ns soon
dlo now ns any time!"
Only nine shots wero fired and tho walls
of tho Jail show tho marks of tho bullets.
None of he sheriff's posse wns hit.
Williams, tho negro who caused the
trouble, was tried and found nullty of mur
dering Otis Word, January 1. 1001. and sen
tenced to ho hanged today. Only this morn-liif,-
ho was refused a new trial by Judge
Hnrrls, but his attorneys filed a bill of ex
ceptions nnd carried tho case to the su
premo court.
A largo crowd of people had como to
town to witness tho hanging and when It
was learned thnt nn appeal hnd been taken
to the suprexo court delalng the execution
thero was much tnlk, which crystallize 1
soon after In tho formntlnn of a" mob. At
noon thn mob made an assault on tho Jail.
I They battered down the outside door, do
i splto tho warning of tho sheriff, nnd en
tered tho building.

They made a demand on the sheriff for
the key to tho negro's cell, but were re
fused. With the refusal they began their
advanco on tho sheriff and few deputies
which ho hnd been ablo to summon to his
aid. They were told to stop or they would
bo fired on, but the order was not obeyed,
As they advanced down the corrldor'toward
tho 3hcrlff the order was given to fire.
Ilennett foil, dying almost Instantly.
Thomas Word, tho father of William's vic
tim, who was In tho front of the mob, was
badly shot, as was an unknown country
man. The unexpected fight of the sheriff
and his Itttlo posse frightened the mob
and they retreated outside of the Jail.
Here they broko and ran and were booh
divided Into little groups, discussing the
event.
Sheriff Merrill at once consulted Judge
Harris ot the county court and It wan de
elded to call upon Governor Cardler for
aid. The governor was communicated with
by telephone and said ho would send two
companies from Atlanta as soon as they
could bo assembled.
During the afternoon tho mob telephoned
the situation to friends In the adjoining
towns of Villa, ft lea and Tomplo and made
an appeal for more men to get possession
, b( the ui'gro, ThU was communicated also
to Governor Candler and tho governor soon
wired a proclamation to tho peoplo of the
county. It was read from tho steps of
the court house at 4 o'clock by Iho mayor.
The governor commanded tho peoplo to
disperse and Bald the entlro military and
civil forces of the stato' would bo used to
enforce order, If necessary, Tho reading
of tho proclamation npparcntly had n good
effect, as many people wcro seen to mount
their horses and leave town. Much appre
hension was felt for tho night and sho
Bherlff and city and county officials, after
n consultation, decided to take tho prisoner
out of tho country for tnfokecplng. The
Atlanta militia, under command of Major
Harkcr, arrived about 6 o'clock and one
hour later escorted the negro nnd Sheriff

these people to appeal from the order of

national executive committee and will ro-
quire nt least thirty days for considera
tion, so that If the Omaha union shpuld or
der the ' membors of tlellstedt's band to
quit playing they could appeal anil
pending tho appeal the concerts In Omaha
would como to an end.
Ono unpublished piece of history In con
nection with the boycott Is that within tho
past week Herman Hellstedt had taken
steps to bring suit for damages against tho
officers and members of the Omaha Elec
trical Workers' union, charging them with
slander and libel In declaring "liellstcdt'H

claims that such Information has been sent
broadcast over tho country and has un
doubtedly Injured tho reputation of his
band In other places, so that his revenues
will bo considerably reduced under the Im
pression that his band Is an unfair organ

stopped by appculs of members of the Mu

"Robert T. Lincoln arrlvod from Chicago

and was met at tho station by myRclf and
driven to the monument, where wo met
Major Johnson, the custodian, und other

South Omaha News
Stock lu tho recently organized Pontoon
Drldga nnd Ferry company Is selling rap
Idly nnd tho company now his quite a
sum of money on hand. Shares aro going
nt (25 each and few business men tako less
than five shares. One member of tho com
pany attended tho council meeting yester
day noon and urged that the ordinances
granting to the company a llccnso to op
erato be passed as soon as pobslhlo, In
this connection It was stated that a boat
for forry purposes had been secured, but
the deal would not he closed until the
ordinances had been passed, Councilman
Martin shared thn opinion of other mem
bers lu that tho city was granting u frnn
rhlse, but according lu statements made
by the officers of tho company only a ll
ccnso Is asked for. This impression pre
vailed on account of the fact that the
two ordinances, which were drawn by nn
attorney not conversant with municipal
affairs, provided for a ten years' nxclustvu
right to land on tha river at any point
between A street and the southern city
limits. An cxcluslvo Uccnsu uanuot be
granted, and this word will be eliminated
from the ordinances, thus making a ll
ccnso to bo Issued Instead of a franchise.
Therefore thero Is no royalty to bo paid
as In the case of a franchise.
It Is understood that tho ferry company
will mnko a landing nt tho foot of Missouri
avenue for tho tlmo being. Tho Btago of
the river and the shifting snnds mako It
necessary, however to provide for a land
ing anywhere In South Omaha, and for
this reason the application for a license Is
so broad.
Arrangements are now being mndo by
tho East Side Improvement club to secure
nn opening to the river, and In this tho
ferry company Is giving what assistance
It can. Thero was somo talk of going to
work and opening N street later on, In or
der to give a dlroct route to thn heart of
tho city nnd the stock yards. If N street
Is opened It will nee.es.iltnto tho building
of a viaduct at either N or O streets In
order to nccommodntc Iowa farmers who
will uao tho (ferry or pontoon bridge for
convoying llvo stock to this mnrkot.
With tho Missouri nvenuo route opened
stock can bo driven to tho L street viaduct
and Into tho main entrance to tho stock
yards without nny dllllculty, hut with N
street opened fnrmers would protest about
driving stock to tho yards In Mich a
roundabout way.
At next Monday nlght'a meeting of the
council tho fcrrybont and pontoon brldgo
ordinances will come up ngntn nnd It Is
expected that every effort will he made to
hasten tho passage of the bills In order
that tho ferry may start as soon as pos

of Martin tho clerk was directed to notify
tho agents that this sum would be deducted

PATCHES.
Why HriMvn Ones C'mne ou Knees,
When a woman can get rid of brown
patches on her face by changing' her diet
It Is worth while for other women, who
rare for their complexions to know some
thing of the mothod.
A lady In Michigan City, Ind., who does
not want her namo mentioned, says tbat
coffee- caused tho brown pntchoi on her
face by first giving her stomach trouble,
then putting hor nerves out of order, and
tho rosult waa shown In hor complexion.
Sho quit coffee and began using Poatum
Food Coffeo nnd In less than n month the
stomach troublo disappeared and within
two months her complexion cleared up nnd
Is now fine and rosy.
She speaks of a Mr. Knight and Gideon
Hunt of Wcstfleld, Ind., who have both
beon Improved In health by leaving oft
coffeo and taking In Its place Postum Food
Coffee, also a Mr. nnd Mrs Jcbib Stanley
of the entno place, who wero In poor hoalth
and suffered from hlomach trouble. They
quit coffeo and after using Postum a short
time tho rosult wns natural sleep, return
of appctlto nnd a gain In strength ai fast
an nnturo will rebuild.
Shn gives tho nnmot of a number of other
persons who have been helped by leaving
off coffee ami taking Postum Food Coffee.
It la rv safe proposition that If any coffee
user has stomach or nervous trouble, or
bad romplexlon, he or she can get rid ot
thn trouble by discontinuing coffee and
taking Poitum Food Coffee. Jt Is easy
enough, to provo the truth of this by
mnl-lnK trial. Every firat-clsit grocer sell
rostum.
