speak of nations who, at the time they

astonishment greater than theirs when
they saw it on the desert of Magellan,
in one of their islands. At first they

arrest and confession last night, it has
beed' "out a question bf ' time that he
would be lynched. The whole maieh-
uoruooa in wnicii the outrage occurred

was committed. Tbe victim was Uken
to the woods. Under the limb of
tree a wagon was drawn, and Kline
compelled to stand ia iu bed. Some
trouble was experienced in procuring a
rope, out at last one was obUined. A
loop was made in one end, the other
thrown over the limb of the tree, the
noose aojusted around Kline s neck,and
the rope was drawn Uut. All this
while Kline remained as cool as th

trying to force him to confess. He re
mained dogged and firm, however, and
said all he asked - was justice of the
courts. The leader replied: Well give
you .rvencuck-y justice." Seeing his mo
ments were nambered, Kline, with rare
presence ef mind, asked that his hat be
put on his head. The request was
granted just as the wagon was about to
be driven lrom uader. , Toe . driver
reached oyer and pulled the doomed
man's hat over his face, and then the
wagon was driven out, and Klines'
body swung from the limb like a pen
dulum. Several doctors in the crowd
gathered around and stopped the mo
tion of the body, and began noting the
nonunion oi too pulse. Presently the
wretch's legs began to twitch and jerk
spasmodically, denoting tbe agonies of
nis aeaiu, struggles. JNow the crowd
gathered round and began to poll down
his legs, helping him out, and then
they varied the performance by swing
ing the body to and fro, whirling it
round and howling like demons all the
while. One man shouted, "Send Har
ry Hulse over to us from Cincinnati,
and we 11 treat - him the same way,
which was greeted with yells of delight
As Kline swung off, one man of the
mob yelled, "Now get loose if you can,
damn you." These were the words
Kline used to Mrs. Truesdale after he
had raped her and tied her fast to the
bench. When it was oerUin that the
wretch was quite dead, the body was
left hanging, and the mob slowly dis
persed to their homes, well pleased
