A HlGHTjDFJORTURE
It Brought a Fortune to Its Half
Strangled Victim
AN INNOCENT PLANS ORDEAL
Twice Strung Up by He
Confessed to Murder and Was er
ward Vindicated and Recovered S
000 From His Assailants
Late In the fifties of tbe last cen
tury George W King was the pro
prietor of a hotel In Oxford twenty
sis miles from Lafayette Ind In
1839 a stranger arrived at the hotel
and gave his name as Dr Itowe He
told King that he had no money and
asked to be trusted for his board till
he could get practice in the place
promising to pay him as promptly as
possible King consented to the ar
rangement and Rowe soon became a
favorite with the people on account of
his companionable disposition and su
perior intelligence The doctof how
ever fell deeper and deeper In debt
lie had been at the hotel for nearly a
year when King reminded him one
morning that he had not paid any
thing on his board bill for three
months The conversation It after
ward appeared was overheard by
some one in the hotel though noth
ing was thought of it at the time
A week after the conversation Itowe
was called out late at night to see a
patient and failed to return Days
passed without any word from him
and his disappearance soon was con
nected with the conversation that had
passed between him and the landlord
about the unpaid board One night
three months later a party of disguised
men entered the hotel and overpow
ering King took him to a woodland
adjoining the town
He recognized the voices of several
of his captors and especially of the
leader who told him that he was sus
pected of murdering Itowe and de
manded that he confess King stoutly
maintained his innocence and the
leader of the mob ordered his com
panions to string him up A rope
was placed around his neck a dozen
men pulled down a stout limb over
which the other end of the rope was
thrown and when the limb was re
leased it carried King off his feet and
left him hanging by the neck He
was nearly unconscious when let down
and again ordered to confess
Aftor much delay he was restored
sufficiently to understand what was
said to him and he again refused de
claring his innocence and saying I
did not know what had become of
Rowe A second time he was struu
up and a second time let down but
life was nearly extinct and he was
much longer in being restored than be
fore
The luckless landlord knew he could
not pass through another such ordeal
and live so he consented to confess
He purposely lengthened the confes
sion in order to gain time and said
that he and two men named Rogers
and Haggard had poisoned some whis
ky and induced Rowe to drink it and
after his death they had buried him
In a hollow some distance away It
was nearly daylight when the confes
sion was made and the lynchers de
termined to take King to jail in Lafa
yette and I lien arrest Rogers and Hag
gard
Before the jail was readied day had
dawned and King recognized his cap
tors as members of the IIore Thief
Detective company of Denton Warren
and Tippecanoe counties nearly all of
whom were known to him Confident
of his guilt the men made no attempt
to conceal their identity Po trreat
was the exdtement and so intense the
feelinir against King that he waived
exainimtnn and went to jail hoping
that something would turn up to es
tabiii his iimoeence
Vvtui t hi j tii at Lafayette King
lort rs to editors of papers in
Mi iicago St Louis Louis
ville ad ether cuics setting out the
-iv tr os of hfc confinement and
a r h r keep his letter in the
Pir n hoj es that it might fall un-
r uves notice The appeal was a
ritioti one and was copied into
iny pipers throughout the north-
Wt
Two weeks after its first appear
nv o Dr Rowe rode into Oxford and
attended by a number of citizens pro
ceeded to Lafayette where his ap
pearance caused the immediate re
leise of the accused landlord In ex
planation of his disappearance Rowe
said he had left his home in the east
on account of domestic troubles that
lie had learned that his wife was on
her way to Oxford and he had deter
mined to leave the place secretly in
order to prevent her from learning
where lie had gone He had gone to
a little town in southern Illinois and
it was there that he learned that the
man who had befriended him wastus
peUcd of his murder and was in jail
In Lafayette
As soon as King was released h
brought suit against thirty two mem
bers of the Horse Thief Detective
company for 3000 each and also
against the company as a corporation
Thomas A Hendricks afterward vice
president was his counsel but the
case was not allowed to come to trial
the lynchers compromising by paying
King 23000 With this money he
purchased a farm and other property
near Lafayette where he lived till his
death
years
at the age of seventv eirht

ABOUT ADVERTISING NO 8
The Cellar Hole and the
THE
Hole
By Herbert Kaufman
A caal cart stopped before an office building in
Washington and the driver dismounted removed the
cover from a manhole ran out his chute and pro
ceeded to empty the load An old negro strolled over
and stood watching him Suddenly the black man
glanced down and immediately burst into a fit of
uncontrollable laughter which continued for several
minutes The cart driver looked at him in amusement
Say Uncle he asked do you always laugh when
you see coal going into a cellar The negro sputtered
around for a few moments and then holding his hands
to his aching sides managed to say No sah but I
pst busts when I sees it goin down a sewcr
The advertiser who displays lack of judgment in
selecting the newspapers which carry his copy often
confuses the sewer and the cellar
All the money that is put into newspapers isnt
taken out again by any means The fact that all papers
possess a certain physical likeness doesnt hy any
means signify a similarity in character and its character
in a newspaper that brings returns The editor who
conducts a journalistic sewer finds a different class of
readers than the publisher who respects himself enough
to respect his readers
What goes into a newspaper largely determines
the class of homes into which the newspaper goes An
irresponsible scandal mongering muck raking sheet
is logically not supported by the buying classes of
people It may be perused by thousands of readers
but such readers are seldom purchasers of advertised
sroods
Its the clean cut steady normal minded citizens
who form the bone and sinew and muscle of trie com
munity Its the sane self respecting dependable
newspaper that enters their homes and its the home
sale that indicates the strength of an advertising
medium
No clean minded father of a family wishes to have
his wife and children brought in contact with the most
maudlin and banal phases of life He defends them
from the sensational editor and the unpleasant adver
tiser He subscribes to a newspaper ivhich he docs not
fear to leave about the house
Therefore the respectable newspaper can always
be counted upon to produce more sales than one which
may even own a larger circulation but whose distribu
tion is in ten editions among unprofitable citizens
You can no more expect to sell goods to people
who havent money than you can hope to pluck oysters
from bushes
It isnt the number of readers reached but the
number of readers whose purses can be reached that
constitutes the value of circulation Its one thing
to arouse their attention but its a far different thirg
to get their money The mind may be willing but the
pocketbook is weak
If you had the choice of a thousand acres of desert
land or a hundred acres of oasis youd select the
fertile spot realizing that the larger tract had less
value because it would be less productive
Just so the advertiser who really understands
how he is spending his money does not measure by
bulk alone He counts productivity first He takes care
that he is not putting his money into a sci
ic
