The negro's name Is Eugene Smith, who was employed as a servant ln the Clark home for several years. He stole into the room of the children whose screams aroused the other if. mates of the' house, who gave the alarm. The streets, which were crowded with peo ple Dremenadlng; were turned into ex citement most Intense ln a moment. Cries of "lynch him" were taken up as the wild chase continued to the village limits, where he finally was captured. Preparations were made for swinging up the criminal on the limb of a tree, but the interference of many ladles who had flocked to the scene prevented a tragedy. Smith was locked up.
