MOB LAW RULES.
Reign of Terror in Indiana Towns
Caused by Desperate Characters.
Versailles, 1nd, Nov. 2.—Since the
announcement that Gov. Mount has
abandoned hope of convicting members
of the mob which lynched five men
here some time ago, the lawless ele-
ment is becoming vindictive.
The law is not enforced against the
perpetrators of the robberies, barn
burnings and highwaymen, and the
farmers are again becoming very rest-
less. An uprising similar to that which
swept JaCkson County several years
ago may be the result.
A reign of terror exists near Ellwood,
Ind., owing to mysterious assaults
upon the family and home of Charles
Waymire, a prominent farmer. His
sons and daughters have been assault-
ed and his house bombarded at night
by bowlders and bullets. .
Weyler Is Condemned.
Madrid, Nov. 2.—The papers here se-
Verely condemn the remarks made by
ex-Capt.-Gen. Weyler in reply to a
deputation which visited him on board
the steamer Montserrat prior to his'de-
parture from Havana for Spain. He
said that he 'did not heed the attacks
upon him, as they were an indication
of the success of his system, and ad»
vised the Conservative party in Cuba.
not to be silenced, but to protest vig-
orously against the suicidal policy of
the new Spanish Government.
Drumming Up Mormons.
Helena, Mont, Nov. 2.—John Henry
Smith, one of the twelve apostles of
the Morman Church, is in Montana for
the purpose of perfecting here the or-
ganization of a church composed of
Montanians reared in the faith.
There are about five hundred in the
State, it is believed, who can thus be
gathered together in the fold of latter
day saints.

POISON FOR HIS BENEFACTOR.
A Negro Tries to Kill the Family
That Had Been Educating Him.
Pittsburg, Nov. '2.—William E. Brown,
a {15-year-old mulatto, is in jail here,
having confessed arson and an attempt
to poison the family of O. R. Cook.
Mr. Cook, who is a lawyer, took the
boy out_of the Washington County
Home a few months ago, intending to
educate him to 'be a champion of the
negro race. On Oct. 6 Mrs. Cook and
her brother, James 'Mc‘Closkey, were
taken sick at breakfast, but they recov-
ered after two days’ suffering. They
thought moldy coffee caused the trou-
-bl.e
Yesterday the house was set on fire
in two places, but the blaze was ex-
tinguished by MeC'loskey. The negro
boy was arrested, and said he had put
rat poison in the coffee on Oct. 6 and
had set fire to the house because the
family would not allow him to go out
at night and play with other negroes.
Bonner Knocks Out Butler.
Philadelphia, Nov. 2,—Jack Bonner
knocked out Joe Butler in the second
round at the Arenalnlast night. The
fight ended in a most unsatisfactory
way, and in the opinion of the majority
of the spectators the decision should
have been given to Butler.
1'11 the first round, in less than twenty
seconds after the two men put their
hands up, Butler caught Bonner on the
point of the jaw with a swing and sent
him down. Butler stood waiting/for
him to get up, but Referee Crowhurst
interfered and allowed Bonner to re-
cover himself. The‘ round dragged on
with Bonner clinching continuously to
save himself and still on queer street.
There has been bad blood between them
for some time, and another fight will
undoubtedly be the outcome.

the street, when several pistol shots
were fired, and the young man stum-
bled and tel in the roadway. He got
up quickly and ran, pursued by one of
the men, to the opposite side of the
street, evidently intending 'to enter an
undertaker’s shop. He had his hand on
the undertaker’s door knob when an-
other shot was fired'iby the man behind
him. The second shot pierced his heart,

the shop. A bullet had pierced his
heart and another had struck him in
the back. Several arrests have been
made.

That is exactly what Dr. David Kennedy’s
Favorite Remedy is good for.
Rev. I. W. Hill, pastor of the M. E.
Church at West Almond, N .Y. ,some years ago
suflered with a cancer of long standing on
the lip and concluded to have it removed.
About three weeks before the operation he
purchased Dr. David Kennedy’s Favor-
ite Remedy, and continued taking it for
some time after the cancer was removed.
Ten long years have passed since then, and
no trace of the ugly thing has returned.
This wonderful medicine acts as a nerve
and blood food. It makes permanent cures of
Nervous Debility, Sleeplessness, Dyspepsia,
Rheumatism and all Women’s Weaknesses.
It restores the discrdered liver to a healthy
condition and cures constipation.
