Union City, Tenn., Dec. 8.—The neighborhood of Rives, a railroad station just below here, was yester- day the scene of a triple lynching, Adam Charles, Andy Miller and Wil liam Smith being the victims. The cause was an assault on Minnie. the 10 year old daughter of M. Myers, who attends school about a mile from home, and was generally accom- panied by one ofher brothers. Yer- terday morning she started to school alone. When about one-half a mile from home, in a lonely woods, she was accosted by the negro Charles, whom she knew very well, and who induced her to enter the woods with him. She was there assaulted by the negro Miller. Charles and Smith being present and witnessing the crime. Minnie reached homefjmore dead than alive and told her story. An alarin was sent out, and in less ¥then an hour a hundred men were on the trail of the fiends. Among them were a number of negroes. Miller was captured early in the af- ternoon ina negro cabin. As soon ashe wascaptured he revealed the hiding place of his companions, who ‘were found in the woods near by. Miller accused his companions of the crime and protested his innocence. No accusations were made by the pursuing paity, who proceeded in ominous silence to a wood near by, where the three were hauged. The negroes in the comunity were thor- oughly in sympathy with the actions of the avenging party and condemed the assault in unmeasured terms. Miller wes a negro of considerab e respectability in his neighbothood. having a wife and several children. His compaions were considered worthless. The child at last accounts was in avery precarious condition. Baliard’s Snow L niment. There ts no pain it will not relieve no It will no swelling it will not subdue, wound it will not heal.
