The livery and feed stables of Thomas Day at Rich Hill burned one day last week. The fire was caused by the explosion of a lantern.

McCracken, one of the | leading farmers and stock raisers of Spruce township, accompained by his wife, one of the most estimable ladies of this county, gave the Tiwzs a most pleasant call Saturday, Mr. McCracken renewing his sub scription fer ‘96. He is sending a copy of the paper to his little grand daughter Mable Murphey, a hand- some and aecomplished child which he also renewed for "96. For a long time Mable did not know how it was that she was getting the paper but finally solved the mystery by charging it to grand pa. We were very sorry to learn from Mr. Mc Cracken that bog cholera was raging in his neighborhood and that within the past few weeks he had lost 37 head of fine fattening hogs and had fifteen others badly effected with the disease. The pecunary loss of these hogs did not seem to worry him so much as the loss of his winter meat. He said he knew of no way out of the difficulty now than to fatten a beef to supply his smoke house. In addition to his lossin hogs, he said Clem Slayback had lost 45 head, Silas Fisher 8 or 10, Davis Radford all he bad and Doc Murphey quite a number. In fact said Mr. Me- Cracken all the farmers in the neigh- | borhood are losers by the disease. sas | NEGRO BURNED ALIVE. | Swift and Awful Vengeance Wreaked | Lpon a Black Fiend—Public Square xt Tyler, Tex., the Scene of the Execution. Tyler, Texas, October 29.—Mres. | Leonard Bell, the 19 year-old wife | ofa farmer living four miles from | here, was assaulted and murdered | last night by Henry Hilliard, a ne- | | ro. Mrs. Bell bad been visiting her | mother and about dusk started to walk home, a distance of half a mile. Shortly afterward her mutilated body was found a quarter of a mile | from her home, at the side of the | public road. There were evidences | ofa terrible struggle, as the body | was almost nude. The fiend, after | assaulting her, cut her throat from | ear to ear and completely disembow.- | eled her | A posse was quickly organized, | led by Deputy Smith of Tyler, who | with lanterns in band and aided by | me. If I don’t see you anymore, good by. Henry.” After his confession and thorough * ‘ identification a vote was taken as to the mode of punishment. It was |unanimously agreed to burn him | alive, and that he should suffer the penalty on the public square. The line of march was taken up toward Tyler, and at 4 o’clock the head line entered the main street, where no less than 7,000 people were assem- bled. Large crowds of women and children were congregated on the awnings surrounding the public pla- za. Wagons, carriages, «trees and buildings were converted into grand stands and were thronged at 4:30. A scaffold was erected in the cen- ter of the square. straw were driven to the scene and placed in position. The negro was then given an opportunity to speak, FF Wagons laden }; with kindling wood, coal oil agd J but his words were inaudible. When he offered up his last prayer, how- ever, he could be heard for several blocks. He was then lashed to the iron rail that extended through the platform. Mr. Bell, the husband of the mur- ; | dered lady, applied the match and the dames shot upward, enveloping the brute in a sheet of fire. He begged for mercy and it was meted out to him in the measure he gaye his victim. It was determined to burn him at once, but the fire was quenched after the last piece of wood was burned. In a few minutes the fire was started again. From the time the match was applied un- til his death was exactly 50 minutes. The Il & G. N. train was crowded | with people from towns north. Hun- dreds of negroes witnessed the exe- cution and representative negroes | expressed their indorsement of the punishment. The officers were pow: erless and the sheriff wired the Gov. | ernor, but his message was too late. | All business houses closed and the big Cotton Belt shops were deserted. Interest Rates Reduced.
