C., Aug. 25.-On almost tho Identical spot where .lames Kuy fell mortally wounded during the hattie between a masked mob and tho Durham machine gun company guarding tho Alema nco county jail oil tho night of July 15), another mob this afternoon over powered Sheriff C. I). Story and six deputies and took away from them .loin? Jo ft ros, a negro charged with assaulting a four-year-old .child. Afterwards the mob curried Hie negro, without resistance, to a lone ly spot halfway bo;ween Darlington and Delmont cotton mills, west, of Graham, and riddled his body with bullets. Ile was reported to Sheriff Story as dead, The crime for which the young negro was put to death is alleged to have been committed nt io o'clock this morning near tho child's home, ('rios of her mother, it is said, caused the negro to run, leaving the little girl without serious injury. Admits Crime, Says Sherill'. An armed posse was formed i in mediately after (ho crime was re ported, but lt was Sheriff Story's posse, composed of deputy sheriffs and police officers of both Graham and Burlington, that landed tho pris oner. They found him crouchod lu a honeysuckle vine near tho Graham railroad station. .Ile was arrested and placed in thc Alamanco county jail shortly after tho noon hour. He admitted the ,crlmo, Sheriff Story said. At 3 o'clock this afternon Sheriff Story and his six assistants started with Jeff res to tho court house one block away. Arriving at tho spot where Kay was killed, a mob formed around the officers and their pris oner. Thero was a sudden surge forward and lu the twinkling of an eye, according to tho Sheriff, the prisoner had boen taken from tho officer and was placed in an auto mobile and rushed away. Not a Shot Fired. There was not a shot fired; not even a gun drawn during the minute scuffle between the mob and ' tho officers. Sheriff Story said to night that resistance would have been folly, as the mob was made up of between 25 and 50 determined men. There were nt least 150 ad ditional men nearby whose sympa thies were with the mob,"he stated. Answering a direct question, the Sheriff declared that he did not. know anyone in the mob. The men who led the mob and took the prisoner away, the sheriff said, must have Just moved into tho county aqd were not known to him. There have been no arests in connection with the negro's death. Whether thero is a likelihood that there will be arrests, the sheriff did not know. Sheriff Story said to-night, over the telephone that Graham is quiet. There appears to be no race feeling. The negro was not a resident of Alnmance county. LEMON JUICE FOR FRECKLES Girls!

Hard luck attended the Moy Scouts on their trip to Changa Lake this year, and continued In effect until the boys arrived home last night. In addition lo having a rainy weok for a camping trip, and the death of their cook, the boys struck real hard luck when they started home. A truck was hired to bring the boys from their camp to Westmin ster, and the truck was stuck in the mud live times before they suc ceeded iu getting away from the camp. Tho boys had lo "toto" their entire ou I ll I for about a quarter of ji mile, and with unusual pushinc and carrying finally made the trip to West minster. At Westminster came an argument with the railroad people about check ing the boys' baggage. The argu ment arose over the folding cots, the cots of the Scouts not corresponding lo the station master's idea of what was meant by folding cots as set forth in the regulations. Proof that the cots would fold was tinnily demonstrated, and the boys were finally loaded on the train at West minster, arrived at Seneca to lind that on account of a wreck on the Blue Ridge, the train was not run ning. Plans were made to spend the night in camp at Seneca, but it was later decided to come on through the country in trucks. After being stuck again, the boys finally got borne, completely worn out with their trip.

Puris, Aug.- 2 5.-The destruction of tho Bolshevik! armies now may bo considered complete, according to advices received here. Of the host which swept down on Warsaw nothing is left but 30,000 fugitives. Tho Polos have taken 80,000 prison cos (hus far; but what ls more Im portant they have captured great quantities of guns and materials. lt is considered probable that tho Soviets employed all their available resources, and in their present con dition Russian industries will take a long time to replace them. Con sequently tho Soviets are unable to lind effectives with which to seek to restore the fortunes of their arms, and lack of equipment will make them without military value, flosses Aro Heavy? During tho last three days there ha been heavy fighting in the marshy valley of the Narew. between Ostrolonka and Lomzn, where the Hods sought to break through in tho direction of Bialystok. The losses have been heavy on both sides. On August 2,'{ the Poles carried all the passages of the river. At this Junc ture two other Polish armies pursu ing tho Beds from the west came up and consummated their defeat. The Prussian frontier ns far as Myszynlec is now occupied by Hie Poles. All the Red troops west of the line of Ostrolenka-Myzyniec have been captured. The peasants con tinue daily to discover and hand over to tho military fugitive Ked de tachments. The exact number of cannon abandoned ls not yet known. Detachments of cavalry and infan try on horseback which escaped pro ceeded northward along the line of the lakes and marshes betwen the fortresses of Ossowelc and Grodno. Tho same route was followed by those retreating from the environs of Bialystok. Trying to Make Stand. It appears evident that the Bol shevik! are trying to make a stand in the region of Ossowelc, where the nature of the ground facilitates a defonsive, so as to maintain com munication with Bast Prussia and prevent access of the Poles ot Lithu ania. Profiting by the regrouping of the Polish army, the Reds again invaded Galicia. Gen. Budenny made a dash for Lemberg, but has been defeated and is in flight. Another detach ment crossed the Dniper and occu pied S try I. This detachment sought to destroy the Bord's ta v oil wells, but was driven off by local workmen. Says Four Annies Destroyed. Warsaw, Aug. 25.-The Polish war minister, Gen. Solnokowskl, de clares that four Bolsheviki armies have been completely destroyed i tho northern Polish front. They consisted of 250,000 troops, infnn r: cavalry'and light artillery. The minister estimates that li number of Bolsheviki killed coed od tO.GOO. Already 50.000 p oners have boon taken, and 50,000 more, ho declared, will bo gathered in before the end of the week. Pace Terms Rejected. London, Aug 25.- Poland's reply to the peace terms presented by tho Russian Soviet delegation at Minsk amounts to a Hat rejection, says the Manchester Guardian's Minsk cor respondent in a wireless dispatch Hied lu that city on Mondey. "Out of the fifteen Russian de mands," he continues, "only one that relative to demobilization-is accepted, and that only on condition that Russia will take a similar course-that is to say, Russia must demobilize at the samo time Poland disbands her forces. "The terms relative to disarma ment, the closing of munitions plants and the delivery of munitions to Russia by Poland are indignantly re jected. Beyond Discussion. "Bolsheviki terms relative to a Polish workers militia and control by tho Russians of the railway line from Bialystok southward are de clared beyond discusi?n. The boun dary line between Poland and Russia as laid down by Karl Curzon, Brit ish secretary of state for foreign alfairs, is declared unacceptable, as lt involves a third partition of Po land. Demands for distribution of land to Pol sh victims of war and the re turn of cattle and horses driven away by Polish land owners from White Ruthenin and Lithonln are rejected as interfering with the In ternal affairs of Poland, and a viola tion of Polish sovereignty. "Other terms are rejected without qualification and Poland demands a line of demarcation between Polish and Russian territory based on strntgetic considerations and thc idea of buffer states." AS P?

Mexico City, Mex., Aug. 24. Pedro Zamora, the bandit chief, whose men carried off a number of captives, including several ^Ameri cans and British subjects, from the town of Cuale, State of Jalisco, on August 20, is being clo.sely pursued by government troops, said Gen. Eduardo C. Garcia, chief of staff at the war department to-night. He added the bandit's followers were rapidly deserting and that "by the end of tho month" not moro than fifteen or twenty would remain in the hand Six' Americans who were held by Zamora have been released, but there are several more still in his hands, and at loast two British subjects are being held for ransom. It is possi ble the list of Americans and Brit ish captives ls yet incomplete. Cuyale, where the victims of the raid were captured, is a small mining towii and is the. location of La Union Mining operations, which are oper ated by the La Esperanza Mining Company of El Oro. State of Mexi co. Information relative to the out rage has been coming from Cuyale by the way of that company's offices. These reports have been contradic tory, but information received from this source and elsewhere would seem to indicate that upwards of .'100 women are captives of the outlaws. American and British diplomats made representations to the foreign O?I1 ce to-day and were told tho gov ernment was bending every energy to capture the bandits and liberate the captives. Mining oillctals. government au thorities and American and British diplomat agents are trying to get in touch with Cuyale, but reports they, have received are meager and con tradictory. The war office has heard nothing of the progress of tho force of 5,000 troops sent into tho State of Jalisco on August 1(1. to round up the Zamora band, and rall com munications in that section of the country are very poor, the country being very mountainous. It is be lieved. howe vf r, it is loo early to expect results from the military ex ped i Hon. Friends of the American and Brit ish captives, knowing Zamora's rep utation for ruthlessness, fear he may hill his prisoners if he is closely pressed. They have been working for the past couple of days In raising money with which to ransom the captives. Zamora, who has been called a "perpetual bandit." succeeded during the last year of the Carranza regime in tho leadership of outlaws In the States "of Michnocan and Jalisco. This step was made easy for him by .- - u> %mnm*mu Kl fi TfT^ j$ Wi1? ^ 'Va*/ &^'<l 1 C.* O r ror A well bv mileage fe a tire pur zit a sens the tire, n Built to c at exceed Tires, of t inch sizes appointm Their vail tion of G( ness and c the worlc voted to t If you ow Maxwell sizes, go Station fe real wort! year buile xlyear Double-Cure $'*'.'"2 50 Weather Tread.

After the Autlan incident the gov ernment sent troops in pursuit of Zamora, with orders to exterminate the band. It also declared Zamora an outlaw, which gives any one the right to shoot him on sight. Dr.Thaeher's DIARRHOEA Safe foMIXTlJRE an? J DIARRHOEA Sure -DYSENTERY FLUX. Etc. Seven Years for Auto Tliclf. (Anderson Mail.) Judge .1. \V. Do Yore, presiding over the Greenville court of general sessions sets a precedent in the im posing of a sentence of seven years for the stealing of an automobile, and with such a precedent, it would seem thal tho courts of South Caro lina will make the practice of auto mobile stealing one which will go hard for the criminal if ho ls caught. Automobiles are so easy to steal, explained the court, that drastic son toncos are necessary to help In break ing up the practice.
