Va., twelve miles from New Martinsville, tlje county seat. Last summer John j White was arrested and convicted of rob i bing freight cars at Hundred, on the Bal- timore and Ohio road, and in August he j escaped from the county jail at New Martinsville-: Yesterdav afternoon Conntv Constable Newt Fiirbpfilp.impri that, Whit had been seen about Wilewille and went after his man. When Fur bee attenuated to make the arrest White whipped out a revolver and killed the constable at the first shot. Several persons, among them James Baird and John Hibbs, attempted to overpower the murderer.

The 31'.i"o TlroTte Thro-jiglx the Jail Doors V ' with Sledges and Crowbars, and the Guilty YVriieh was Hanged with, a Hope Taken from an Electric Lamp. FREETzr.rcK. Md., Nov. IS. James Go ings, who izr. nltecl Miss Lillie Jones,at the homo of Hamilton Geisbert, near, this city, Saturday night, was taken from the jail by a mob of 300 men yesterday morn ing 'and hung to a tree in a field on the Jefferson turnpike, one mile from the city - A report . reached the city about mid night, that the woman had died from the cut& and heating inflicted by the negro, andnthis infuriated the men, who had been gathering in the streets and discussing the outrage. ' ' A mob was quickly gotten together, and unmasked, but armed with revolvers, the men marched, to the jail. ' They had pre viously broken into.a machine shop in the j neighbor hiKd oc the jail and procured sledges, crowbars and lib's. They made at once for rh fyo? on the west wing of the jail,' and h rruil 10 batter upon it. Full'v ! twenty s jlred from the window.- i above by BaerilT H. Zimmerman id i his deputies, but the mob paijl no atton- j i.tion to them, and went on wijth their r 1 work. The jail. bell, was'' runjr' to summon j assistance, but none came. ' In twenty minutes the large door panels ; gave way under the heavy blows, and the mob burst into the corridor. They quickly overcame the slight resistance the officers on the inside were able to offer, and found the cell in which Goings, cowering and crying, was confined. The lock was opened, the bolt swung back, and the trembling wretch seized and dragged out in his night clothes and stock ing feet. In the meantime the friends of the lynchers on the outside had lowered an electric lamp near 4the jail and cut the rope from it, extinguishing the light. Goings was led out amid the howls 'of the crowd, the rope placed around him, and he was hurried down the road t6 his place of doom.. He protested his innocence as they dragged him along, and begged them not to kill him. He was promptly recognized. by a number of men who knew, him, and tho.jnob did not hesitate in its work. Arriving at the tree, . the negro was asked to confess, but this he would not do. Two officers of the Salvation Army asked to be allowed to pray with them, and their request was granted. The Lord's prayer was then repeated, and the negro and most of the c- o vd joined in. Going's feet and hands '"were then tied and the ropo- w.i 3 drawn around his neck.4. A man seized the oth-ar end of it, climbed the tree and throw tha cord over a limb.' "Let him g.. ' was shouted, and quick as a flash he wa jerked from his feet and hung dangling in the air six feet from the ground. U:k' siios was tired into his bodyfc and in a few minutes he was dead. The mob during th.' process of lynching ob served order. Non.) were allowed to fire at him except the vne. A member of the mob made, a brief speech, in which he . said that they were there with the unfortunate wretch not in .a spirit of malice, but to make an example of him, and teach his race that they must let the women of Frederick county alone After watching the body swing in the air a few minutes the crowd left, it dang ling there and dispersed. : The assault for which Goings suffered death was a cruel and dastardly one. Miss Jones has thirteen cuts and stab wounds on her body-where he hacked at her with a knife and razor. She says he asked her for something to eat, and, when she gave it to him he said i "I will give you a dollar." She screamed and ran about fifty feet down the garden, where he overtook her, knocked her down and cut her, also crush ing her nose. The field in which the negro was lynched is the same spot the negro Biggns was lynched on in November, 1887. A Priest's -Wonderful Ride. Wichita, Kan., Nov. 16. Father John Begloy, a pioneer priest stationed at King man, this state, has just made one of the most wonderful ride3 on record. Mrs., Quin lan, of New York, was dying on the ranch of her;.t;i in the wilds of the Pan Handle of Tc:las, and Father Begley was sent for to give .her the consolation of re ligion. The ''distance '-was 310 miles, of which 160 was overland. Six relays of horses had been arranged for him by the ranchmen en route from the end of the railroad at Englewood, Kan. He rode the entire 160 miles in twenty-one hours and thirty minutes, and arrived at the ranch five hours before she became unconscious. He ate nothing during the trip, and took only one, drin of water. Any one who has children will rejoice with L. B. Mulford, of Plainfield, N. J.

St; Petersburg, Nov. 16. The ac couchement of the czarina occurred last evening. At & o'clock a daughter was born to the czar and czarina. Court phy- ; si cians in attendance at the accouchement of the czarina report the child to be a handsome girl, and they add that the mother is rapidly recovering. Services connected with the birth of the infant were held in accordance with the rites of the Orthodox Greek church. The baby has been named. Olga. The czarina (Grand Duchess Alexandra . Feodorovna) was born at Darmstadt,IIes.?e,' June 6, lh'7.2. She was the Princess Alix Victoria Helen Louise Beatrice-of Hesse. and was married to Czar Nicholas II. on Nov. 2. 1894. In accordance with the laws of Rusf.'a, r.-nd1)y manifesto issued by Czar Nicholas on Oct. 21 (old .style),. 181)1 sho 'was 'renamed Alexandra Feud nvna, and received the title of grand ducli'03.5 and im . 1 .penal highness. ... Princess Alix war. the daughter of Grand Duke Louis IV, of Hes:;o, and oc .Alice, princess of 'vireat Britain and . Ireland, third child and second daughter of Queen Victoria. Her brother is the present grand duke of Hesse; her sister IreDe is the wife j of Prince Henry of Prussia: another sister, Princess Elizabeth, is the wife of Grand j Duke Sergius of Russia, and her oldest -sister is the wife of Prince Louis of Batten- j . burg. ' .;. ' . : ,;. .; . ..- I : Yriien Princess Alix was but 12 years of ! age, and while in! attendance at the we4- j ding of her sister Elizabeth, she met Nich- J olasj then grand duke, who was in his' lOth ye?r. . The children 'became attached to ! each other,. but the ezarowitz's affection j for the princess wa3 diverted for some time. Six years later her father made a visit to the Russian court, accompanied by Princess Alix, and her presence in the Russian capitol was" the means of renew ing their liking for each other, but as the princess was then an ardent Lutheran the question of having to become a member of the Orthodox Greek , church had to be considered. O wing to the ill health and subsequent death of the czar, Alexander III. the mar riage of Princess Alix and Nicholas was hastened. Concessions, such as were never before secured, in embracing the Or thodox faith, were obtained from the Holy Synod. The princess was not required to declare her former religion to be accursed, nor that her conversion was due to the conviction that the truth lies not with her own, but with the Russian church. The Holy Synod was satisfied with the simple declaration that the princess joined the Greek church in order to be of the same re ligion as her husband. How 'Philadelphia Is Kobbed. Philadelphia. Nov. 14. The senate in vestigating committee, after three day's sessions, adjourned yesterday until' Nov. 21. The investigation thus far has dis- j closed much dishonesty in city contracts. It was shown that the streets have been 1 paved in an inferior manner, though pay- . ing for superior work, and m this way j alone was robbed of over $400,000 in1893 and 1894. Though the city paid for incin erating garbage, much of it has been sold as food for hogs. It was also shown that only half the number of men called for by contracts to keep the streets clean were in reality employed, though the city paid for the full number. Five leople Irowned.
