A. B. Bishop. The guards defended the place and a boy and a man, members of the mob, were shot and siightly In- Jured. A hose was also pressed ihto service and & strong stream of water was thrown into the crowd, which stubbornly held its ground, its members declaring that they would get the negro at'all costs. Finally the workhouse was rushed.and the negro taken by the mob, which-started with him for Prince's Corner, the scene of the assault and murder, where he con- fessed his crime and was then burned at the stake and his body riddled with bullets.

D., superintendent of the Ferris Industrial school, would have been 18 next October. She was a student of the Wilmington High school and was on her way home last Monday, when she was at- tacked.

Late on Monday afternoon, a farmer working in the field saw & young woman stagger and fall in the road. She got up and fell again and then-she tried to crawl. The farmer and his sons went to her ms- sistance, but when they reachied.her . she was lying unconsclous in the road. They found her to bs Miss Bishop. BShe had three ugly gashes In her throat, her body was badly, scratched and her clothing was torn in fnany places. In one hand she clutched a small penknife, which she used at school. There was every evidence that Miss Bishop had made a desperate resist- ance in defense of her honor and her life. The wounded girl was taken home’ and dled that afternoon without regaining con- sciousness. - The entire nelghborhood was almost in- stantly aroused and a manhunt Instituted. Buspiclon was soon fastened on George G. White, & negro just out of the workhouse, who was engaged as a laborer on lhe farm of BEaward Woodward, near the scene of the assault, White was found In bed that same night and when taken into custody denied all knowledge of the crime. He was identified by several persons who said they saw ‘him in the vicinity of the scene of the orime. A knife which Mrs. Wood- ward said belonged to him was found where the girl was assaulted. White was brought to Wilmington, but later was transterred to the _county workhouse, where the officials thought he would be safe from mob violepce. —————— — OPPOSED TO LEVEE SYSTEM kments On read De- Farmers Declare E Misstissippi to vastats MEMPHIS, June 22.—A convention of land owners from the western counties of Ten- nessee and Kentucky was beld today, at which resolutions were adopted against the present levee system on the Mississippi and at which a committee of five was named to 0 before the “Mississippl river commis- slon and enter protest.
