BARRETT SCOTT'S BODY FOUND.
Corpse of Kz-Treasurer of Holt Comity
Iteravered from the Niobrara lllver.
O'Neiix, Neb., Jon. 21. Barrett
Scott's body was found about 10 o'clock
Saturday night in tho Niobrara river,
about 300 feet below the bridgo, on tho
Boyd county side olo&o up to tho bonk,
and in about seven feet of water, Ho
was in his shirt sleeves, but had his
watch and chain and other personal ef
fects on just as ho wore thorn in life. A
new hempen rope, about one and one
half inchos in diameter, was around his
neck and the end, about three foot long,
was dangling in the water. Evidences
showed that ho was hanged by the vigi
lantes before being thrown over tho
bridge into the water. There was a
slight wound in tho right wide of his
neck, where a bullet had grazed it, cut
ting through the lobe of the right ear.
The body was found by Dell Akin,
Jnke Hersheiser, Sanfonl Parker and a
half dozen others. Anton named Hud
sou, who lives near Dorsey, was tho first
to discover the object of their search.
Sanfonl Parker assisted him to bring tho
body to tho bank, when a messenger
was dispatched for tho coroner of Boyd
county, who had jurisdiction at that
point.
Now that Scott's sad fate is fully
known the hunt for the inurdorers takes
on fresh interest. Now warrants were
sworn out for the arrest of Mulllhan,
Roy and Elliott, 011 the chargo of mur
der, and a warrant was also sworn out
for Fred Harrison a similar charge.
Harris is a f ormevwho lives about throe
miles f ronxParkor, nnd the senrchors now
claim that they have absolute proof that
these four men are among the guilty
parties. Officers left Sunday ovoning
with the warrants.

THE KING OF INNISHKEA.
m Dwells ob an Irish Island and Hole
m Mayo Tribe.
About 10 miles from Dugort, in Achlll
island, out to sea, looking lileo n thin
line of sand in tho wnves of tlio Atlan
tic, is tho island of Iuuishkcn'. Ono fine
morning our party started to visit it in
a trusty hooker. As tho hooker enmo in
sight of tho shoro groat excitement was
visible among tho islanders, nud it was
very hard to realizo that wo wero still
but SO hours' journey from London.
Tho inhabitants turned out en masse.
Tho women and children in thoir scanty
garments of red flaunol crouched outside
their cabins, whllo numbers of tho men
ran down to tho boach and put out in
thoir coracles on chance of rowing us to
land. It was a strango scone and curi
ously liko a picture platoin n boy's book
of adventures. We know thoro was a
king of Innishkoa, and soon a tall,
bronzo faced man was pointed out to ns
as his majesty. On landing all tho party
wero introduced nnd conducted by him
to tho palace, where tho qneon dowager,
With her daughter, bado as welcomo in
rrno Irish fashion.
Tho old lady was in hor picturesque
nativo costumo red dross and plaid
shawl over her head. Tho princess, how
ever, had ovidontly on first sight of the
hooker arrayed hersolf in modern fash
ion to do us honor, and wo wero amused
on penetrating into the rccoption room
to find advertisements from shops in
Buckingham Palace road and St. Paul's
ohurohyard hung up to embellish tho
wall, though only by a favored few
could they be read,
Tho island was destitute of any school
or means of instruction for tho children,
a very small proportion eithor under
stood or spoko English, and thero was
noithcr wntah nor clock among tho peo
ple, who had a happy go luoky idea of
time and troubled themselves littlo as
to Greonwioh regulations.
Thero were no church bells to ring, no
trains to catch, no oflloo hours requiring
punctuality, so when tho sun was high
in tho heavons they would get through
their not arduous farming dutlos, and
when he sank in tho great wasto of
waters they could sleop. The king's
word settled all disputes. It was a
hereditary monarohy, and his people, o
far as he waa concerned, were nntaxed.
Happy those states, thought somoof the
visitors, where royalty could bo main
tained with' so little grandeur I How
ever, I am in honesty bound to add we
f onnd King Philip bad other means of
filling his coffers besides levying taxos
on his faithful subjeots and learned the
art of making good his opportunity
whonovor the Saxon strangor Ventured
to land oh his shore. But Innishkea has
an interest altogether apart from its sit
uation, surrounded as il is by lovely
views of mountain cliff and rocky head
land. On this spot, hundreds of years
ago, early Christian missionaries land
ed, and on top of a shelly mount, half
a mile from tho beach, aro Christian
remains of great antiquity. West of the
island thoro stand also the ruins of a
church said to havo been built by the
successors of St. Columba. Leisuro
Hours.

MAKING- TUEPENTINE i
AN EXTENSIVE INDUSTRY IN CERTAIN
SOUTHERN STATES.
How tha Trees Aro Tapped nnd tho lies
Inous Oliin dithered Departments and
Divisions lu tho Work All Under tho
Keen Eye of tho "Illiter."
Dialect writers find n fruitful field
among tho "Tnr llcols"of tlioCarolluos,
Alabama and Georgia. In tho cool
depths of tho turpentino woods, with tho
gashed trees' yielding up their unions
gum, tho balmy uir and tho pictun -yj
"hnckcrs," "dlppors" and "scraper, '
with tlio ever vigilant "ridor" wntcli
lug everything, is n phase in southern
lifo which hr.s long been tho dolight of
authors nud tho pleasure of artists. Tlio
crudity of thu Implements nud tho utilla
used in making turpentino and rosin
lend additional interest to this old in
dustry, and tho gypsyliko habits of tho
turpoutino makers udd to their ragged, ,
illiterate- charms. 1
Turpentino is tho distilled gum of tho
pino trees of North and South Carolina,
Alabama, Georgia nud part of Florida.
Tho season begins when tho first spring
eap risos and ends when cold weather
checks tlio flow of tho trco's blood. Iu
January or February tho "hacker,"
with his keen blndcd ax, begins tho
round whicli euds'with tho season. Ho
is tho expert of tho woods and knows his
trees and just how much hacking they '
will stand. His task is to cut tho
"boxes" iu which tlio thick gum of tho
wouuded trco will collect. A box is n
wido incision nbont six inches deop, n
wedgo shaped cut in tho trco, and ho
hacks from DO to 100 boxes a day. Tlio
first boxes aro cut near tho roots of tho
treo, and they aro cut ns closo togothcr
to the height of n man's hoad as can bo
done without killing tho pine. Tho
hacker leaves n width of bark botwoon
each box so as to prosorvo tho vitality of
tho treo. When tho trees aro lcabed to
tho turpoutino makors, tho tonus of tlio
loaso limit tho number of boxes to each
trco, but when it is desired to work tho '
pino to tlio fullest extout thn gashes aro
carried up to a height of 20 feotormoro.
After tho hacker comes tho man who
"corners" tho boxes. This "coruor" is
a out in tho top of tho box to guido tlio
sap into tho cavities loft for tho gum,
and tno man wno "works" tuo "crop"
goes systematically from box to box,
starting tlio sap nnow with fresh inci
sions, working iu this way 10,000 boxes
during tho season. Tho sap or gum fills
tho boxes with a clear, sticky, thick
fluid, and this is romovod by tho "dip
per. " Scattored through tho woods aro
barrols iu which tho "dipper" deposits
tho gum, whicli is thon haurod to tho
still. About a quart of sap is takou from
oaoh box by means of tho trowol shaped
scoop used by the dipper, and then tho
hacker comes along and starts tho flow I
afresh by wounding the trco again. The
turpoutino maker watches his men close-'
ly, for tho Tar Heels aro an easy, going'
pooplo and roquiro to bo urged by the
Tiucr," wno goes tnrougn tho wooubou
horseback examining tho crop, hurrying
tho dinners and hnokors and sondintz tho
barreled gum to tho still.
- - -
Tho first or "virgin" sap which flows
in tho spring makes tho beet rosin, and
tho poorest is tho product of tho harden
ed gum which is loft ou tho sides of tho
boxes when tho sap "turns down" in
tho fall. This is removed by tho
"scraper," who moves through tho
woods with his scraping tool, gnthcriug
tho loavings.
Tho still is a largo copper vat hoodod
with a oloso fitting cover in whicli is a
funnel whicli in turn is connected with
tho "worm" of tho still. This worm
runs down .into auother vat near at
band, and in this vat tho fumos or vapor
of tho heated gum is distilled into tur
pentino. Firo under tho copper vat heats
tho gum, and tho volatilo parts riso to
tho funnel, pass into tho still and aro
condensed by tho water in tho socond
vat into spirits of turpentino. Tho resid
uum loft in tho vat is tho rosin of
commorco, which is passed through a
series of strainers and siovos to tho bar
rels, whioh aro mado on tho spot, ffho
turpentino, howovor, cannot bo bandied
so easily, for it will work through an
ordinary barrel. It is placed in white
pine barrels whioh have been coated in
side with sovoral coats of strong, hot
glne until tho barrel in impervious to
the Bubtlo fluid.
The trees aro worked for five or six
seasons, aud then tho turpentine maker
moves to nnothor part of tho woods. He '
startod in North Carolina, crossed over
to flnnth Carolina and is still movins
toward tho gulf. Forest fires dostroy tho
pines faster than tho hackor docs, for
tho flamos swoop ovor large areas before
they dio out Careful owners of turpon-
tino woods havo tho pino straw and
fallen uudorbrush rakod away from their
troes boforo tho soason begins, and col
looting this material in somo safo spot
wait for a qniot day when no wind will
cool tbo wot fingor, and then thoy burn
tho rakings.
Nogroos aro commou laborers of tho
turpentino woods, but whito mon aro
plentiful. Thoy livo in rough shanties
in tho woods, with tho stables for tho
mules and horses near at hand. No
work is moro honlthful than turpentiue
makiug, for it is all out of doors iu the
depths of tho balmy, hoalth giving pines,
froo from tho malaria of tho swamps
nnd from sudden changes of wcathor.
