Mnore , the Kentucky , , negro who
criminally assaulted Mrs. Mary Davis
of Sullivan county and Mrs. Lemon
or K'jox county on Tuesday last , was
hanged to a telegraph pole near John
Lemon's farm at 8 o'clock last night
by a mob.
Moore was captured at Lawrence-
rilie. 111. , late yesterday atler a bat
tle with the town marshal , during
which the negro was shot three times
and severely wounded. He was then
taken to llobinson , 111. , for safe
keeping. John Lemon , husband of
one or the women who had been as
saulted by tl e negro , went to Law-
renceville last night and identified
him as the woman's assailant.
Late this afternoon he was brought
to Sullivan in a \ > agon by the sheriff
and his deputies to he taken before
the women for further identification.
The sheriff and his deputies attempt
edto steal into town with their
prisoner , but a mob of forty or fifty
farmers , heavily armed , took the
prisoner away from tnem and started
the investigation themselves.
The negro was taken to the home
of Mrs. Davis where he was identi
fied and thtMj the mob started with
the negro for thp farm of John Lem
on , two miles from this city. The
mob iu the mean Lime had swelled to
great proportions.
The negro was identified by Mrs.
Le-non. The crowd then started
back to Sullivan with the negro , but
one mile east of the Lemon farm a
rop-j was thrown over the arm of a
telegraph pole and the trembling
wretch was quickly jerked into the
air.
" . The governor had ordered theVin-
cenness militia company to protect
the negro , but his instructions were
received too late.
After hanging the negro the mob
quietly dispersed. It was composscd
mostly of farmers , but was largely
augmented by citizens of Sullivan ,
Oaktown and otner towns of this
county.
Badly Bruised by a Boar ,
Npbraska City , Neb. , Nov. 21.
Bobert Spencer , an eighteen year old
boy residing with his parents west of
the city , while in the pen feeaiuii
the hogs was attacked by a vicious
hoar and thrown to the ground before
he realized what was the matter.
He had nothing to fight the boar off
with but made a brave fight and
received a number of wounds. He
would have been killed but for the
presence of mind of a younger broth
er who heard his cries and came to
the rescue. The younger brother
was af'aid to enter the pen but made
a great noise outside , which attract
ed tbe attention of the thoroughly
infuriated boar. The young man re
gained his feet but was knocked
down four times before he finally
reached the fence and climbed over it
falling in a daad faint on the other
side , where he was picked up and
carried to the house. He received
several severe gashes from the boar's
f tusks and was bruised all over his
body. It required a number of stitch
es to close the wounds. He was so
badly used up that he will not be
atle to leave his bed for two weeks
But.for . his brother he would never
have escaped alive , for the hog had
him down and tbe otheis , in the pen
were joining in the attack.

den should receive less than $475 a
year. This was the poverty limit.

miner received anywhere from $400
to $450 a year and his laborer $375 to
$425. These wages * re sufficient to
maintain a fair standard of living ,
he claimed
Dr. John O. Malley of yesterday

been killed.
"Some of the coffee fincas that

SHE MADE THINGS LIVELY
Shouts roFemale Occupants to Cast Their
Clothing and Dress Modestly Injected
By tiie follce.
New York , Nov. 22. Mrs. Carrit
Nation created a sensation at the
horse show today. She harangued
ihe great gathering on the evils of
overdress , attempted to break a bot
tle of campaign and finally was eject
ed from the building by the police.
Mrs. Nation entered the garden
quietly and took a seat in the tier.
She had been there only a few min
utes when her uazo rested on the box
where some members of the Vander-
biltj family were sitting. She studied
ner piogram and tmn descended to
. Ihe promenade. Stationing herself
in front ot ! the Vauderbili bos she
delivered a tirade on overdress. In
the box were seated Mrs. Alfred G.
Vandeibilt , Eegiualrl Vandeibilt and
Miss Nicholson. Alfred G. Vander
bilt was leaning against the rail of
the promenade and did not see Mrs
Nation approach
"You ought to be ashamed of your
selves , " the woman s-.reamed at
them. "You ought to be ashamed
to wear such disgraceful dotbes.
Take them off , take them off at once
and attire yourselves modestly. "
Alfred G. Vanderbilt hastily left
his position at the rail and came over
to where Mrs. Nation was standing ,
and wiping his forehead with a
handker hief he whispered something
in her ear and pushed her away.
The outburst of the woman at
tracted a great crowd of people and
the occupants of the Vanderbilt } box
were evidently very much embar
rassed. Mrs. Nation then turned
her attention to other boxes.
Finally she started for the cafe ,
where she bore down OL a oarty of
men who were drinking wine. Mrs.
Nation seized a bottle and glaring at
the men shouted :
"Young men , don't drink such
filthy stuff. You are iioing straight
to hell. Where is the ma" who sells
this stuff ? Show him to me and I
will tell him what I think of him. "
Mis. Nation's request was speedily
granted bv the sudden appearance of
M. Ville Pigue , the caterer of the
garden.
"Get out of this horrible business , "
she shouted at him ; "you are also
going to hell and ruining tne bodies
and souls of men. You are dragging
them down with you. Shame on you ,
shame on yiu. "
'The Frenchman , however , ran to
Mrs Nation and rescued the bottle
which she had repeatedly hrandished
in the air to emphasize her remarks.
Then he pushed ner out of the door.
Here the olice touk hold of the
Kansis reformer and forced her out
of the building.

CARNAGIE'S
The following passages are from
Mr. Carnegie's notable address when
he was recently installed as rector oi
St. Andrews' university.
"Under the universal laws by
which you live you weave a web ,
every thread of which affects irs char
acter for ever. These laws
neither wrath nor pardon ;
Ever true their measure mete
Their faultless balance weighs.
I thought that I might interest you
by considering a subject now attract
ing wide attention tbe economic
changes which have come , and are
impending , iu the relative position
and power of nations.
Whatever the future mny have in
store , nothing can rob Britain of the
credit of having given to the world
the means for its surprising develop ,
ment. Forty odd years ago she made
more iron and steeJ , manufactured
more machinery , mined more coal ,
wove more cloth , than all the rest
of the world. It was Britain iu she
one scale , the world in the other ,
_
the world kicking the beam.
A few managing Britons , or Amer * t
leans can now readily be obtained re
establish manufactories in anv part a
nr the world , and educate ihe na
tives to become satisfactory workers.
.
Capital , management and skilled la
bor have become mobile in the exn
treme. The seat of manufacturing
is ! ( nuw , and will continue to be more
and mere , simply a question where ri
the requisite raw materials are found
under suitable conditions. Capital t
and skilled labor have lost the powei
they once bad to attract labor and
capital. The jute industry , once cen
tered in Dundee , is now also estab
lished in India , near the jute supply.
America now makes more steel than
all the rest of the world. She ha * Q
become the foremost nation in
wealth , manufactures and commerce ,
and promises soon in some branches ,
to occupy tbe position which Britain
occupied while it was Britain versus
the world. Although no Briton can
expected to see with satisfaction *
his country displaced from first place ,
there is yet cause for rejoicing that
supremacy remains In the family. It
not altogether lost what the race w
still holds.
Prom what has been said 16 will be
inferred that the manufacture ol
staple articles for the world is to be
chiefly conducted in our time and in
the next generation by three coun
tries Britain , Germany and tbe
United States. In the race for the
world's trade between these fountriet
several considerations are important. of

SMEDES , Miss. , Nov. 19. Presi-
dent Roosevelt's bear hunt in Miss
issippi is ended and he has * ot had
even a shot at a bear. The last day
of the chase was simply a repetition
of the three proceeding davs so far as
his luck was concerned. Try as the
hunters would they could not get a
bear within the range of the presi
dent's rifle.
The dogs got a fresh trail early
this morning and the president and
Holt Collier followed it half a dozen
miles to the bi Sunflower river.
The bear crossed a mile below the
ford they went to , and believing he
was making for the "cane brakes on
the other side they endeavored to
head him off. When they got into
the brake however , they were dis
gusted to find that the bear had
doubled on his track and crossed the
river still further down. It was then
one o'clock and as arrangements had.
been made to break camp at 2:30 the
president was reluctantly compelled
to abandon further pursuit of the
elusive quarry.
When the president was out after
bear Major Helm , Dr. Lung and Sec
ret.irv Cortyleou had a more success
ful deer drive on this side of the
great Suijfiowrr river. They jumped
a buck and a doe. Major Helm killed
the later from his horse at about
forty yards.
Although the president has failed
to kill a bear on this expedition he
has enjoyed his outing and speaks in
high praise of the hospitality that
has been accorded him. He philo
sophically attributed his ill-fortune
to the traditional hunter's luck , and
says the next time he goes after bear
he will arrange to it.iy Ijng enough
for the luck to change.
When all was in readiness this af
ternoon the president and the mem
bers of the partv mounted tfapir
horses and rode into Smedes , leaving
the wagons to follow The president
is a hard rider , and the pace was
rapid in spite of the bad trails The
distance , which is fully twelve miles ,
was covered in less than an hour.
Upon the president's arrival here
he found fully 500 people , practically
all the negroes from tbe surrounding
p'antations j ; , assembled to greet bin- .
He thanked them for their demon
strations , but made no remarks.
They waited around his car on the
siding until dark , hoping he would
make a speech.
Mr. Fish tonight gave a dinner in
his private car to the president and
members of his party. At 9:30 the
special train started for Memphis ,
having added the record of a presi
dential bear tunt to the fame of
Smedes , which first became known
to the outside world through the
story that here the experiment of
teaching monkeys to pick cotton was
to be tried.
