Major Warner’s address was note- worthy for the reason that he de- clared that boodle could not be made @ political issue, that no political party in Missouri was favoring boodle or would ever favor such a detestable crime. “The crusaders against boodle are confined to no party or creed. On their banner is inscribed ‘We are the people.’ It isa crusade of stalwart Missourians glorying in the good name of their state, against intrigu- ing boodlers who would trail her banner in the dust—a crusade of the honest masses against a dishonest few. In the front rank of these cru- saders leading the charge are found surviving battle-scarred veterans of the armies of Grant and Lee, the grandest armies that ever marched to battle.

Spokane, Wash., August 7.—Will- iam Hamilton, who outraged and murdered 13-year-old Mabel Rich- ards, daughter of Sheriff Richards, of Asotine county, was hanged by & mob at 1 o'clock Tuesday morning, The jail at Asotine was stormed af- ter Hamilton confessed and the mob strung him to a telegraph pole. Hamilton said he met the girl in the woods and outraged her, and killed her for fear she would tell. He choked her insensible and then beat her brains out with a club and thought no more about it, he said, than he would of killing a cat. About midnight the mob went to the jail and secured the key from the guards but could not tind the key to Hawilton’s cell, whieh had to be bat- tered down. They then marched ac- cording to programme already made, to a telegraph pole at First and Fill- more streets, where Hamiltcn was given a chance to confess again, which he did and also made his will. Some wanted a more severe death but hanging finally prevailed. He was pulled up and the crowd dispere- ed as quietly as i J,M. SALLEE.

Vernon, La , August 5,—The body of an unknown white man was found July 30a mile and a half north of Elmo, a station on the Arkansas Southern railroad. The limbs were dismembered and great portions of flesh had been torn from the bones. Evidently the man had been dead several weeks. The sult of clothes worn was an expensive one, and fur- ther evidence of prosperity was dis covered in a bag full of $20 gold pieces found in the shirt pocket. In another pocket were certificates for 1,000 shares of stuck in the Home oil and fuel company of Pucasel, Colo., in favor of H. L. Adgett, issu edin November, 1901. The theory is advanced that the man left the Arkansas Southern train to go toa near-by station, and was murdered en route. Three bullet holes in the HERE’S A BABY Its Mother is Well.
