IT AIA HAPPENED IX THE TEXTH
WHEX EXGEL SCORED.
"With Tiree 3Ien on Bases Pitcher
Sillier Flew Out, Then Portland
Won 4-3.
Melodrama: Why Spokane Lost, or How
the Winning- Hun Was Scored.
Act X., Scene L The Portland Baseball
Park: Score 3-3.
(The field Is dotted with players In suits
of blue. These are 'the Portlands. They
wear white stockings. At the bat are
men In suits of reddish gray. They wear
blue stocking: and are the Spokanes. In
the grandstand are men and women in
modern attire. Thev frostfrni.it i .,..
?me.' Siap each other on e back, rise i
th 7 . yel1- Boys s0 trough
the stand yelling In shrill treble. "Pea
outs, popcorn, candy, and ice cold soda."
Often they make a sale, and then is heard
the munching and crunching of the roast
ed tubers. There is one man on the field
In citizens clothes. He is the umpire,
-toward him the players often start, then
move back, as if cowed by his gesture
or defiance. In the background paint a
large fence covered with advertisements,
use Jenk's Vegetable Compound." "Buy
Xour Shoes at Never-Wear-Outs," a glar
ing mass of discordant colors. Over the
fence to the right is the Chapman school,
toward which the players yearn to send
home-runs and to smash the upstairs
"windows. In the distance arise the air
clad hills. A small boy has climbed up
a telegraph pole and is stealing a glimpse
of the drama. The day is bleak. The
sun has hidden Its face behind a cloud.
On the players' bench a dozen blues are
sitting. A small boy hands them copious
draughts of ice water.) McDonald
(Standing erect with the air of a mart
inet): "Batter up." (A thin, elongated
jjiaycr snuines to the front of the stage.)
Risley; "Here I am, my noble liege."
Engel: "Weigates, mein freund, wie
Befinden sie zich?" (He ties himself into
" now Knot, and then throws a ball
Ewutiy at the batsman.)
"Dere, how do you like dot once again?"
McDonald (laconically): "One strike."
(Engel launches himself Into space again.
Jiisley Is seen to crouch like a panther for
a leap. He swings on the ball with his
bat.)
Uisley: "There, my Dutch charmer,
xanke scheln for that peachy ball." (The
ball bounds swiftly over the foreground
of the stage. The players hustle Into ac
tion. Delsel throws himself headlong to
ward the ball. He seizes It, and throws
it swiftly to first)
The Crowd (men and women cheering
Eotto voce): "Bravo Delsel. Good boy,
Jake. "Do it again, Engel."
McDonald-(running to first): "You're
out." (Risley walks disconsolately back to
the players' bench. Voices are heard to
eay. "That's all right old man, we'll pull
out this game yet." A tall, solid Scotch
man walks to the plate, grabbing a bat
as he goes. Before the grandstand he is
given an ovation. "Hit her out, Scot-
Tie, yens a small boy, "This isn't crick
et.") Knox (soliloquizing): "No, this is whawr
j. cut tne Dall for me, and square mysel'
wl' the crood." (He swings at the ball
desperately. It rises from his bat, and
soars up to the wings. A distant fielder
is seen making tracks to head off its
trajectory flight. It drops into his hands.
He pauses a moment, then throws it into
the diamond.)
McDonald (to Scottle): "You're out."
The Crowd (all together): "Isn't he a
peach? Well, he's the best ever. It's
all off with the Bunch Grassers." (Engel's
head is seen to swell visibly. A heavy,
dignified man with the air and visage of
a Shakespearean tragedian is seen walk
ing in stately tread to the .plate. He
treats it like a pulpit)
Hurlburt (aside): "A walk! A walk! A
kingdom for a walk!"
Engel (the arch villian who has over
heard the rash offer): "Ach, mein leiber,
dot kingdom 1st mein." (He throws four
balls. Hurlburt walks blithely to first
while a lithe, young blade steps to the
front)
Engel (to Hurlburt): "Ach, where is the
new kingdom?" (Hurlburt is heard to
laugh hoarsely.)
Swindells: "Hurlburt for you I would
lay down and die." (He strikes a mighty
blow for his cause. The ball goes to
right field. It is stopped by the watch
ful Glendon. Hurlburt goes to second.
A tall, young man. with a moustache like
Shakespeare's lover, and sighing like a
furnace, waltzes gallantly to the plate,
keeping perfect time to the entrancing
music that Is heard from the wings.)
Corbett (not Jim, but Teddy, of Seattle):
"Here's where I die for my country- My
last words were, "Tis better to have
fought and died, than never to havedied
at all.'" (He sends the ball whizzing to
Tinker, who gropes for it blindly. He
stalks about the stage in a frenzy. "Oh,
that I should have lived to see this," he
mutters. He fails to throw the ball. He
clutches it and stares at it wildly. A
ray of light bursts upon him. "Excelsior,"
he says, "I have it" The bases are now
full as Miller enters, valiant and confi
dent, a small man of Napoleonic build
and achievements.)
Miller: "T can see them now, those head
JInes: 'Miller Won the Game; In the Tenth
His Home Run Scored Four Runs; the
Doughty Little Spokane Pitcher Played
the Whole Game for His Nine, and Killed
the Ball When the Bases Were Full.' (He
swats the ball. His dream would have
been realized, but one Brown captured
his fly. The Spokane team slink out on
the field.)
Scene n. Same. Portland team comes
to the foreground.
Manager Grim: "Now, fellers, don't
throw away the game when you have
it right in your mits." (Music is heard
rising in intensity, until its shrill notes
arouse the feelings of the audience. Muf
fled drums beat and roll. Thunder Is heard
in the distance. Lightning flashes. The
Doughty Engel is seen tripping his light
fantastic toes to the plate. His face is
set and determined.)
Engel: "Here is where ich spatziereng
ehen."
McDonald (without a trace of emotion):
"One ball. One strike. Two balls. Three
balls. Four balls." (Engel throws away
his bat und lauft to first Muller comes
rtp smiling. He says nothing. That is
the source of his greatness. He hits p.
pop fly to Third Baseman Shelton. Shel
ton runs in like a house on fire. He falls
short of reaching the ball. Muller has
sped to first and now Engel Is running
to second. Shelton staggers to his feet
He throws the ball wildly to Shortstop
Marshall at second. The ball rolls out in
the field. It goes through a line of men
backing up second. Engel speeds in home.
The ball, when thrown in, wanders aim
lessly over the diamond. Engel scores.)
The Crowd: "There it's over. Wasn't
that great scoring on an error. Port
land wins. It's all off but the shouting."
(The shouts are given. Spokane walks
in defeated. The crowd files out of the
grandstand. A thin, young man with a
red vest is being condoled with.)
Rooter: "Hard luck for Spokane, old
man."
Spokane Manager Dodd (he of the red
vest and Tod Sloan build): "Hard luck,
rats. We've got a lot of dubs." (He
boards a street-car that moves off across
the stage, as the field and grandstand
are suddenly shifted away.)
Small Boy (type of the hole-ln-the-fencc-spectator):
"I soly. Mister, what's
the score?"
Dodd (in disgust): "Portland 4; Spo
kane 3." (The car moves away, with
rooters hanging on the sides. Curtain.
Finis.)
How the Runs "Were Scored.
Portland scored two runs In the first
Huller went out Miller to Uisley. Delsel
took first on Knox's error. He stole sec
ona. Anderson fiew out Tinker scored
Celscl on a two-base hit over Corbett'sj
head. Weed scored Tinker by a single
to left Brown went out Miller to first
Portland scored again in the second.
Vlgneux opened up with a fine two-base
hit Glendon sacrificed him to third. On
Marshall's error In handling Engel's
ground ball, Vlgneux scored. Muller
struck out, and Delsel flew out to Lough
eed. Spokane scored twice in the sixth. Aft
er Shelton flew out to Anderson, Marshall
singled. He took second on RIsley's out.
Knox walked, making the second man
on the bases. Hurlburt got a hit, filling
the bases. Swindells did what was ex
pected of him by scoring Marshall and
Knox with a hit
In the seventh the score was tied. Mil
ler and Lougheed both flew out Shel
ton sent out a nice two-bagger, and was
followed by Marshall, who did the same
thing, bringing in the run.
With no one out, Portland won in the
tenth.
The features of the game were the fine
catches of Glendon in right field and
Hurlburt in enter.

No Ashland Men in the Nine.
MEDFORD, Or., Aug. 20.-Owing to the
correspondent being misinformed, thp
Monday Oregonlan stated that the ball
game played at Jacksonville last Sunday
for the championship of Southern Ore
gon was between picked men from Med
ford and Ashland. It should have read
between Medford and Jacksonville, as
there were no Ashland men in the nine.

FOR JOE ACTON'S BENEFIT.
Dr. Woodruff Will Go on the Mat
With the Little Demon.
Everybody who has even the remotest
interest in athletic or sporting events is
talking about the wrestling bouts between
Joseph Acton, wrestling instructor of the
M. A. A. C, and Dr. Wylie G. Wood
ruff. They will be seen this evening in
the gymnasium of the Multnomah Club,
the use of which was tendered by the
trustees of the club for a benefit to Ac
ton. The outcome of the struggle is prob
lematical; for, while no wrestler possesses
science superior to that of the "Little
Demon," as Acton Is called, the great
strength of Dr. Woodruff, backed
by a great amount of skill,
should place the two men on
an equality. Acton has been a profes
sional wrestler for years, and has held
the title of champion of the world,
though his weight in those days was
under 150 pounds. Dr. Woodruff is an
amateur, whose knowledge of the game
was acquired at college, when he threw
every one who went upon the mat with
him. Active work on the football field.
in the 'varsity boat crew, as well as
throwing the .hammer and putting the
shot has developed his naturally wonder
ful physique until he Is a veritable Her
cules. His weight will be from 220 to 225,
while Acton's will probably be 172.
Tonight will be the first opportunity in
many months for Portlanders to see a
first-class wrestling contest. Acton's
wrestling since he came here almost a
year ago has been restricted to the work
incident to teaching his pupils. Ed John
son and Herbert Greenland, though ac
knowledged to be excellent wrestlers, are
helpless in his hands. Now, pitted against
a big, clever man, all the science for
which he is .famous will be needed to win
a victory or prevent defeat. Neither he
nor Dr. Woodruff will make any pre
dictions as to the result. However, It Is
apparent that both are looking forward
to the bouts with confidence.
Joe Kahn and Will Sherman will put up
a fast match. Sherman has the advant
age In weight, but Kahn's experience is
expected to counterbalance the other's
weight. Their bouts will be hot ones.
DeFrance and Price have met before,
and Price was the victor. At their first
match Price had the advantage of weight
and condition, DeFrance having been
troubled with a severe cold. Now the
question of condition seems to be reversed.
Holbrook and McCallig are favorites,
and their bouts will be carefully matched.
A decided difference of opinion in regard
to the relative merits of the men has de
veloped, which has caused much talk and
will bring keen Interest to their bouts.
EVery contest will be catch-as-catch-can,
two best out of three, and the par
ticipants gladly gave their services to
make a" success of the benefit. The change
to cooler weather will materially add to
the large crowd which, in any event, is
expected. Bud Smith, of Vancouver, will
act as referee.
Open Golf Championship.
MIDLOTHIAN, Aug. 20. Lawrence
Auchterlonle, the Glenvlew professional,
today won the Western open golf cham
pionship tournament. He made the 36
holes on the Midlothian Country Club
links In 160. Despite the wet grounds a
large gallery was present to follow the
players, as the tournament is considered
the most notable of Western golfing
events.
With few exceptions the players cov
ered the first 18 holes In magnificent form.
It had been expected by many that the
player who made bogey 86 for IS holes
would win the match, but In a number of
cases the record was lowered.
Records Broken at Salt Lake.
SALT LAKE, Aug. 20. Eddie Smith, of
Salt Lake City, broke the world's ama
teur one-mile bicycle record on the Salt
Lake Salt Palace saucer track tonight,
riding the distance in the first heat of a
mile handicap race In 1:57 3-5. This Is
one and one-fifth seconds better than
the previous record made by F. J. Hof
man at Butte, Mont, a few weeks ago.
In a 10-mile moter race, Clem and
Charles Turvllle, of Philadelphia, estab
lished a new world's record for the dis
tance on an eight-lap track, their time
being 14:23 4-5.
The Tennis Championship.
NEWPORT. R. I., Aug. 20. Semi-finals
in the National tennis championship were
played today between Ware and Larned
and Wright and Little .before a large
crowd. Larned won brilliantly from Ware
In three straight sets, 6-2, 6-3, 6-2. Wright
defeated Little, 7-5, 2-6, 6-1.
Wright and Larned will therefore play
for the championship.
Rich Copper Ore.
SALT LAKE. Utah, Aug. 20. Ten car
loads of ore, 258 tons, mined In the Beaver
district in the Southern part of Utah and
which were sent to Salt Lake City for
analysis, are said to be the richest ever
mined in Utah. The ore, according to the
analysis, runs 40 per cent copper. The
district is on the 'Frisco branch of the
Oregon Short Line, and Is just being
developed.

Llpton Dae Today.
NEW YORK, Aug. 20. Sir Thomas Lip
ton is expected to arrive here Wednesday.
In the meantime Shamrock II will b'e got
into trim for trial. The Lipton fleet, five
vessels strong, attracts a great deal of
attention from all passing craft, and from
those on shore. The steam yacht Erin is
the flagship, and she is anchored furthest
to the south. Next to her comes the ten.
der Porto Rico, then the tug James A.
Lawrence, and then the racing yacht. The
latest addition is a 40-foot launch, the
Dufferln, with which errands to the shore
are to be made. The moorings for the
yachts inside the Horse Shoe have been,
laid, and the fleet will probably go down
there tomorrow.
The Spaldlng-St. Lawrence Company, of
Ogdensburg, has shipped to Shamrock
several hollow spruce spars. There art
four club topsail spars, ranging In length
from 45 feet to 66 feet, and a spinnaker
pole 79 feet long. This is the largest hol
low spruce spar ever made.

Due to Baltimore Exposnre.
BUFFALO, Aug. 20. Justice Kruze, in
the Supreme Court, today appointed re
ceivers for the Muskeok Lumber Com
pany and the Chequessat Lumber Com
pany of North Tonawanda. This action
is the result of the recent exposure in
Baltimore Involving the alleged wholesale
"kiting" of promissory notes. The total
assets of the Muskeok Company were
said to be $232,913, and the liabilities $3S5.
055. The failure of the Chequessat Com
pany Involves large sums and Is alleged
to be due to the failure of the American
Hardwood Company, of Cincinnati, which
recently went Into the hands of a re
ceiver. The total liabilities of the com
pany are $443,447, and the assets $376,101.
Paris's Glass Pavement.
Architects' and Builders' Journal.
The glass pavement which is making
its way in Paris Is exciting the Interest
of the curious. Its Inventor Is a Mr.
Garcher, who manufactures' his product
from finely crushed glass, which is sub
jected to great heat and heivy pressure.
The result is a substance which is said to
be less affected by wear than the best
and hardest granite, and to support a
pressure of over 10,000 pounds to the
square Inch. To break a slab of the ma
terial a weight of nearly five tons falling
from "a height of three feet was necessa
ry. This glass pavement Is being laid
down at the. expense of Its inventor In
several test places where the traffic Is
exceptionally heavy. If at the end of five
years the pavement has worn well, the
municipality has undertaken to adopt it
on a large scale; if not, Mr. Garcher,
who evidently has confidence In his ma
terial, is under contract to replace the
old pavement at his own cost. The new
pavement is said to be noisy.
SOME OLD TALES RETOLD.
An English Account of Several Fa
mous Oceanic Races.
London Shipping World.
The arrival of the Muskoka, the win
ner of the race which is reported to have
taken place from Portland, Or., to the
United Kingdom, serves to remind us that
the days of quick sailing are not yet
ended. In the friendly test of skill which
has just been concluded the competitors
were the North German Lloyd s cadet
training-ship, the H. S. Charlotte: the
Glasgow ship Marlon Lightbody, and the
Glasgow ship Ardencraig. The winner,
under the command of Captain Crowe,
made the run from Portland to Queens
town In 101 days, 20 hours.
Satisfactory as this lastest sailing rec
ord. Is. It pales before the doings of some
of the old-time "cracks," many of which
also performed their speedy voyages with
almost clocklike regularity. The Donald
McKay, the celebrated "Black Ball" liner,
was not only the largest clipper In the
world, but was also accounted one of the
fastest sailers ever built. Upon one occa
sion she took 1000 troops from Portsmouth
to Mauritius In 70 days, and her average
time for six consecutive voyages from Liv
erpool to Melbourne was S3 days, and only
once it exceeded S3 days.
The details of the famous race between
the three China tea clippers In 1S66 are
too familiar to need mentioning here, but
the fact that a speed of over 16 knots an
hour has been made by a sailing ship
may not be so well known. The British
clipper ship Hurricane, during the course
of one of her voyages home from Mel
bourne, attained this rate of sailing on
several days, her best run being 270 knots
In 16 hours.
But It was after the '60s, and Indeed,
well on into the '70s, when some of the
best sailing records were made. And It is
doubtful whether the performance of the
Sir Lancelot, when she covered 14,000 miles
in 89 days against the prevailing monsoon,
has ever been equalled; certainly there
are no authentic statements to show that
It has been surpassed.
The voyage was made in 1S69, from Foo
Chow Foo to London, and her best day's
run was 354 statute miles, while crossing
the Indian Ocean, the average for one
week being 300 miles a day. This was
essentially a voyage under adverse con
ditions. Perhaps the fastest passage be
tween England and China was that made
in 1S57, when the celebrated American
clipper Pride of the Ocean did the run
out from the Lizard to Hong Kong In. 69
days.
SO THEY WERE MARRIED.
Worthless Because He Was So in
Love Employer Hastened Wedding.
New Orleans Times-Democrat.
"It does not always pay for a man to
scribble all over the face of the earth
the name of the woman he Is in love
with," said a prominent business man
the other day, "but it saved one fellow
his job, and made a success of him.
The man, who was then a mere youth,
was working for me at $50 a month. I
thought a good deal of his Industry, In
telligence and accuracy. Suddenly he
became very unreliable, making all sorts
of Inexcusable mistakes. About the same
time I found the name Amy written on
blotters, loose scraps, on the wall ev
erywhere. I called the young man to
me one day and told him that he was get
ting so careless and unreliable that I
was going to give him 30 days In which
to stop making mistakes or resign. Sud
denly it occurred to me that the name
'Amy' was in his writing. 'Who is
Amy?' I asked him abruptly. He blushed
deeply. 'She's my sweetheart, sir,' he
replied. 'We're going to get married as
soon as I can save $300. I'm putting away
$25 a month, and we'll get married in a
year.' I looked at him hard, and he
turned redder and redder. 'No, you
won't,' said I, 'you'll be out of a Job,
and what's worse, unfit for work before
hten. You go to Amy and tell her she
must marry you in a month.' 'But I can't
do that, sir,' replied the clerk; 'I'm only
beginning to save this month.' 'You do
what I tell you,' I rejoined. 'You tell
Amy that you've got her on the brain so
that you are not worth $10 a month to
me, and that if she does not marry you
in a month you'll lose your job.' The
poor fellow was in a quandary. 'She won't
marry me,' he said. 'I must wait until
I can give her a home. How can I get
$300 in a month? 'Oh, that's all right.
Jim,' I said; 'I'll let you have the $300.
You can pay It back to me $10 a month.
But you must be married Inside of 30
days. I'll give you 30 days to go on
making mistakes while you're thinking of
getting married, and CO days to make mis.
takes while you're getting used to being
married. Then no more mistakes, or out
you go.' Well, Jim made mistakes for
two days. He got married In SO days
exactly. That was five years ago. Today
he and his wife and two boys are as hap
py a little family as you could And any
where. He Is still working for me. He
gets nearly $150 a month salary, and the
first boy was named for me. Now, all
this shows merely that a man should not
let love affect him like 'dope,' and that
most men achieve their best work when
they are happy."
Complications In Pern.
LIMA, Peru (Via Galveston), Aug. 20.
An exciting session of the Peruvian Con
gress today developed a conflict between
the Senate and the Chamber of Deputies
over the recent vote of censure upon the
Cabinet adopted by the Chamber. After
a warm debate as to whether a vote of
censure passed by one division of Con
gress constituted a valid and enforceable
rule, 23 Senators withdrew amid loud
cheers from the spectators for President
Romana, the Cabinet, the Senate and
the President of the Senate, Senor Camb
dona. There is no danger of a revolu
tion, but political conditions are now
greatly complicated.
Cuba Docs Not Want Free Trade.
NEW YORK. Aug. 20. L. V. De Abad,
commissioner for the Economic Associa
tion of Cuba, who is at present in this
city, says that he does not believe the
commercial elements of Cuba are desir
ous of establishing free trade tariff rela
tions with the United States. He said:
"Those who state that Cuba wants free
trade with the United States have either
been deceived or are trying to deceive the
American people. What Cuba really does
want Is to harmonize her Interests with
those of the United States. This could
be done by removing from 35 to 40 per
cent of the Import duties upon certain
products."

LYNCHING IN MISSOURI
THR
BE
NEGROES LOSE THEIR
LIVES AT PIERCE CITY.
A Mob Took Possession of the Town
and Drove Out the Blacks
Bloodhounds on Wrong; Scent.
SPRINGFIELD. Mo., Aug. 20. After all
the conflicting stories from Pierce City
have been sifted, it develops that three
negroes lost their lives there as a result
0f the outrage upon Gazella Wild. The
dead are William Godloy, hanged from
the porch of the Lawrence Hotel and
his body riddled with bullets; French God
ley, grandfather of William Godley. shot
in his own house; Pete Hampton, burned
in his own house, but probably shot be
fore the fire.
Eugene Barrett, also known as Carter.
In a confession while a rope was around
his neck, accused Joe Lark, a 'Frisco
porter, of being implicated in the crime,
and Lark was arrested today in this city.
This afternoon he gave a detailed state
ment as to his whereabouts Sunday, and
he is believed to be not guilty. Some
here think that Barrett told any story
to save his life.
The funeral of Miss Wild took place to
day and was witnessed by several thou
sand people.
Pierce City Is near the junction of four
division of the 'Frisco, and trains from
all directions brought in large numbers
of armed men. bent on bloodshed. If nec
essary. When the mob last night went
to the section of the city occupied by the
negroes, some one in the cabins opened
fire, but no one was hurt The mob then
destroyed the settlement, but the financial
loss Is not great. Reckless firing broke
several plate glass windows and a train
was fired into.
The rifles taken from the Pierce Clty
Military Company, it Is expected, will
be returned. Members of the company
themselves were out hunting for the es
caped negroes, with rifles, and this sug
gested the idea of taking all the guns.
The local hardware stores sold out their
arms early, but several applications from
negroes were refused. The mob was com
posed of 1000 or more and no masks were
used.
Thirty negro families were driven from
their houses. Many of the negroes who
fled to the city are hiding In the surround
ing woods, while others have gone great
er distances in seeking safety. It is now
believed that Will Godley. who was
lynched, was not the real culprit. Citizens
say that negroes will not be permitted to
live here in the future, and that the few
negroes not already expelled will be
obliged to go.
The cause of all the bloodshed was the
killing of Miss Gazella Wild Sunday aft
ernoon, as she was returning to her home,
after attending church in town. She
started home alone, her brother lingering
behind. About one mile from town the
brother found her with her throat cut.
lying lifeless near a culvert, under which
her assailant had attend . to drag her.
Evidence of a terri' .. struggle was
shown. A copper-colored negro was seen
sitting on the bridge a short time before
the tragedy occurred. It Is supposed that
the negro sprang upon her when she was
passing, and attempted to force her be
neath the bridge. She fought with sucn
desperation that he could not accomplish
his purpose, and he cut her throat In the
struggle. Her body was not violated.
Monday bloodhounds were taken to the
scene and the girl's bloody hankerchlef
was laid before them. They immediately
caught the trail and ran with full speed
to the home of Joe Lark, where, on be
ing admitted, they rushed into the bed
room and sprang upon the bed.
It is believed that none of the three
men lynched was guilty of the murder
of Miss Wild. Three suspects are under
arrest George Lark, railway porter, at
Springfield, Mo.; Will Flavors, also a por
ter at Oklahoma City. Okla., and Eugene
Barrett, at Mount Vernon, Mo. Lark
says the murderer boarder with him, but
fled. None of the suspects will he taken
to Pierce City. The Governor had been
asked to offer a reward for the arrest
of the murderer, but says he will wait
for Tnore definite information.
TEXAS MURDERER BURNED.
Mol Would Not Allow Him to Die
Too Qnickly.
DALLAS. Tex.. Aug. 20. A dispatch re
ceived here tonight from Whitesboro.
Tex., says the negro. Alf Wilder, charged
with the murder of Mrs. Caldwell, the
wife of a Grayson County farmer, at her
home Saturday last, was captured by a
mob and burned at Nelson's ranch. The
burning occurred early tonight. The mob
was composed of 300 men.
The negro was taken to a tree and
swung up In the air, wood and fodder
were piled beneath his body and a hot
fire made. Then It was suggested that
the man ought not to die too quickly, and
he was let down to the ground, while
a party went to Dexter, about two miles
distant, to procure coal oil. This was
thrown on the flames and the work com
pleted. Wilder was captured near Dexter this
afternoon. Mrs. Caldwell was a bride
of but six months.

Three Marriage Ceremonies.
London Telegraph.
The event of the week in English so
ciety at Constantinople was to have been
a wedding between an Englishman and a
Greek lady, but the ceremony had to be
postponed, owing to a slight accident
'which happened to the bridegroom. On
the same day the best man had his neau
cut open at polo, which would have pre

the Ambassador, who would have been
the principal witness, stumbled In the em
