Sheriffs are Liable for Yielding Pris oner to Mob. (Columbia Record.) The sheriffs of Anderson and Greenville counties, and their depu ties, from whom the negro, Willis .1 nek son, was taken in Greenville i county and lynched in Anderson coun ty, may find themselves itt a serious predicament if tho attorney general or solicitor desires to institute o ceedings. Any officer front whom a prison, is taken by a mob is liable under the constitution to bo prosecuted for a misdemeanor and if convicted to be deposed from office, lt is made Ibo duty of the solicitor to institute the prosecution. Further, the county in which a lynching lakes place is liable for damages to the legal representa tives of thc person lynched, and the county may recover the sum front the persons taking part in Hie lynching. Will Roitham Act? According to Hio Greenville Pied mont, Solicitor Ron ham, of Green ville, whose circu? I embraces both Anderson and Greenville counties, does not think it probable thai, any legal action will be taken. The Piedmont says: "lt Is not. probable that any of the members of the lynching party will bo arrested or that action will be brought against any of them. If such were done the ll rsl step would have lo bo taken by the sheriff of Ander son county. Tho sheriff was itt I Ionen Path this morning and he in timated (here that no arrests would be made, lt would ho a hard mailor to Implicate any one man lu the kill ing, for lhere was a mob ol' several thousand people at the lynching. "Solicitor Bonham said to-day that ho thought lt hardly probable that any legal action would be taken against any member of the mob or tho mob leaders. Ile said that If such Were (lone he would do sill in his power to prosecute tho case, hut that, under conditions in the South, the outcome could easily be predict ed." A Sui! for Damages. The institution of civil action for damages on account of tho killing of relatives is becoming somewhat pop ular in this State. Recently the Su preme Court upheld the verdict for $?'?.000 obtained by Mrs. J. P. Farmer against Wade Hampton Sellers, who was acquitted of murder for killing Constable J, P. Farmer.

Caruthersvllle, Mo., Oct. ll.-Two negroes, A. B. Richardson and Ben Woods, taken from the city jail here last night by a mob which battered down the doors, were lynched. The body of Richardson, riddled with bul lets, was found at noon to-day Moat ing in the Mississippi river. That Woods met a like fate is the accepted belief. Kor some time feeling against Ibo negroes had been at a high pitch. Negroes known as police characters were warned to leave the city and many complied. Richardson, regarded as a desper ate man, was locked up while the police were investigating several rob beries. Woods was arrested last night for an attack upon two young white wo men as I hey were returning home from a store in which they are em ployed, sews ol' the arrest brought 75 masked men to the jail. They broke lulo the cells and dragged the negroes out and disappeared.

THE JURY IMPLICATES NO ONE. The Town of Hone? Path is Quiet After Lynching. Andorson, Oct. ll.-"Willis Jack son came to his death from gunshot wounds nt the hands of an unknown mob," was the verdict reached by tho coroner's jury at llonoa Path to-day. Tho horribly mutilated body was viewed by tho Jury and ut down from the telephone pole by Coroner Beasley. Tho mother of the negro refused to take the body, saying she would not have anything to do with a son of hers that would commit such a crime. The negroes refused to allow the body to be interred in their bur ial grounds, so it wa? burled at tho expense of the county,,on the home place of Melvin Ashley. Several fin gers of the negro were severed for souvenirs during the night and the rope as lt fell to tho ground was cut lu pieces and distributed among the large crowd that had gathered to see him cut from the pole. Coroner Dernley and Sheriff King arrived on tho scene at 9.30 o'clock this morning, and after experiencing a little troublo in getting a Jury will ing to serve the Inquest was begun. Five or six witnesses were examined, but lt was impossible to locate any person who admitted seeing the lynching. Everybody In tho commu nity was reticent and the examination of tho witnesses required only a short time. Sheriff King forwarded a short re port from 'Honea Path to Governor Blease. In the report he referred the Governor to the newspaper accounts, which the sheriff stated* wero correct In every particular as far as he could determine. It ls Bald that "Citizen" Josh Ash ley was not a witness of the lynching and neither was his son. Joe Ashley. These men left the mob with the ne gro before the crowd reached Honea Path. At Honea Path Mayor Sulli van pleaded that Mie law be allowed to dispose of the negro. He road a telegram he had received from Gov ernor Blease asking that the mob al low the law to take its course, stating that he would order a special term of court to try the negro within two weeks. All the pleading was of no avail, however, for after taking the negro before the little girl for a second Identification the crowd proceeded to the scene of attack and there he was strung up by his left foot. The ne gro's body was literally riddled with bulletB, not a spot as large as a dol lar remaining where bullets dbl not pierce. Everything is quiet at Honea Path and no further demonstrations will OCC- r One negro man was dealt With for making an Insulting remark to a gentleman looking on the body this morning.

In previous years lt has not boen so much the exhibits that have attracted the people from every part of the State as lt has been tho community of interests, so to speak, of the people, of this State. There has been a general desire on the part of the people in one part of i Carolina to meet and know more ol I the peoplo in other sections and that ls why they have come to the State Fair.
