The venire of 40 men waa called at 9 &m., and ag soon as the jury had been impaneled court adjourned un- til 1 p. m., when the trial began. The evidence establishing his guilt was conclusive, and the jury was only 32 minutes framing its verdict of guilty and recommending death as the punishment. The courtroom was jammed throughout the trial, and when the verdict was announced, the crowd broke into cheers, which Judge Joase Sheppard and Sheriff Hogg had dif- ficulty in suppressing. Some difficulty was expertenced at the morning session In getting coun- sel for the accused man. Nearly every member of the Butler county bar managed, by some excuse or other, to escape the thankless task, but flaally, the Court ordered Attor- neys F, D. Gabhardtand J. P. Foard to conduct the defense. After sentence had been passed, the negro was taken back to the County dail, where he will be held till theday of execution. Jackson’s crime was committed {n the outekirts of Popular Bluff onthe evening of Feb, 2. Mrs. Norman, & married woman, was walking on the railroad tracks, when the young ne- gro rushed upon her, overpowered her and assaulted her. She was found unconscious several hours later and taken to a physiclan ona handcar. She later identified Jackson positive- ly and a mob surroundéd the jail in which be was confined threatening to lynch him. Sheriff Hogg took the negro from the jail and, single-handed, forced a paseage through the unorganized throng about the jail, put the pris- oner ina buggy and drove out of town, keeping the prisoner out of sight till the excitement had subsid- Grosvenor Uses Bitter Words.

NO. 18 Territories Lead in Growth of Industry. Washington, February 26 —A re- port prepared by the census bureau fot the use of the congressional com- mittee on manutactories discloses that in the percentage of iucrease in number of industries and value ot products manufactured five of the far western states lead the list. In Oklaboma fn the last five years capital invested in manufacturing in- creased 351 per cent; value of the establishments, 100 per cent, and number of employes, 147 per cent.

Y., Feb, 26—-A wo" man’s body with the head severed from the trunk was found yesterday beside the New York Central tracks h re. Both suspicion and mystery atiavh to the cage because there was no other mutilation of the body than the wound by which the neck had been severed and because after several hours’ tnveatigation the coroner failed to learn the wo- man’s identity or any of the events which might have led up to her death. He said it was possible that a train killed her. She was well dressed and wore rings containing sapphires anda pearl. - “Body” Yelled “Where Am |?” Loyal, Wis , Feb. 26 —James Mulli- gan, of lola, Wis., narrow _ escaped being buried alive. The funeral pro- eegsion was slowly weuding its way to the church, when the driver of the hearse heard yells of ‘ Where am 1?” from within, followed by smashing of glass, which plainly indicated that Mulligan had objected tu bemg buried alive. The casket was opened and Mulligan, fully restored toconsclous- ness, sat up and began to talk. He had been in a trance for three days. SOCIETY & BUDS. YOUNG GIRLS COMING OUT.

HE MISSED THE “NEIGHBORS” | Why the Little Western Town Drew Him Back, After Two Years in New York. Charles M. Harper in the Outlook. “Why did you come back?” I ask- ed a Westerner who returned to a prairie town after two years ia New| York. It seemed 4acomprehen sible that he should leave the excitement “Neighbors!” was his response. “Would you want to spend your life when the baby died and not a person in the blessed towa came near us, when we went alone to th» ceme tery, | {t was too much. We packed up and started for home— what's the us» of living thas way?” Does neighborliness exist, like our old geometry problema, iu inverse ratio to the square of the distance? Perhaps Oue day last summer away out in| the Western Kansas wheas lance, where distances are magoili sent and the per capita of population to the square mile is expressed ia “ecimal | fractions, @ settler became iil. He had filty acres of fine whaat already turning yellow inthe sun. He had no hired man, nor had he the mean to engage harvesters. He had evu nt- ed on “changlag work” with some one and thus getting his grain to market. Day after day he tossed in pain and wor-ied over the prospect. Neighbore? The nearest was three miles away and the whole towns hip| ° had but seven families, One morning three self-binders with full complement of helpers ca me rattling over the prairie, The driv- ere did not ask for permission, but went boldly into the field. Round and round the machines hurried, reaping the ripe grain and leaving shocks of gold dappling the level lands, The sick man heard the buzz of the reapers and tried to get to the window—but his wife told him what was happening, and he fell into a deep, sweet sleep. It is no s!'ght thing togiveup a day in the midst of pressing harvest that a farmer miles away may save his crop, but it is a pretty good sort of sentiment that prompts the ac- tion. It may be that it will count for something sometime. “Would the average city street show anact suchas marked a far froutier community in which I spent a night recently?” asked the former Now Yorker, then went on: “We had stopped at a little town of less than & dozen houses, aud spent the even ing listening to pioneer stories in the dingy office of the only hotel. As we were preparing to go to bed,in came three men carrying a violin, a banjo and 6 guitar. They were rauchers re|from the Pawnee valléy, and had been out twenty miles on the plains to enllvea the evening of an old friend who wassick and nearly blia d, with no one to read to him and no music except that of the ceaseless winds, They did not realiz» that tbey had done much—they simply did what they could without think- fug. The leader of tha trio start- ed in the Westa poor boy. Now he owns 2,500 acresstocked with horses and with registered cattle so good that they take prizes at every royal stock show in Kansae*City. ‘Yet he cheer up an old friend in misfortune. Why shouldn’s he prosper?” Why not, indeed?
